The Deflector is a primary weapon used by the Deflector Heavy in Mann vs. Machine mode. Its model and functionality are identical to those of the Minigun. When used by Deflector Heavies, the weapon disables projectiles, causing them to drop from the air. When carried by the Giant Deflector Heavy, it also uses different spin up and firing sound effects, as well as different tracer effects from the Minigun, with a green tracer effect rather than the usual yellow.
There exists a single copy of Deflector owned by the player. It was a user, who've found an exploit in the item schema which can be used to obtain any item in game. He's sent Valve the description with more detail and as a proof given himself a Deflector with Unique quality. Valve has fixed an exploit leaving Deflector as a reward for honesty. Later it was given a Community quality and the same special effects Giant Deflector Heavy has (different sounds, green tracer effects).
