Laser Gun Augments

[TrustyGun]

Nothing screams shitcurity until you can graft a fucking laser gun onto your arm. Here's how it would work:

1. Get a laser gun.
2. Get a guy to help you do surgery.
3. Follow the steps for normal augment surgery, but replacing the robotic arm with the gun.
4. You're now Robocop.

The laser gun will be permanently placed in one of your hand slots, and it can't be taken off of you or dropped. The balancing factor would be that you will be sacrificing a hand slot to be the very definition of shitcurity, and, just like every other robotic augment and regular laser guns, can be interfered with via EMP. They should also be able to be taken off via surgery.

How would you recharge it

[TrustyGun]

Can't you take the power cell out of a laser gun? Take that out, then place it into a recharger, then place it back in.

[TechnoAlchemist]

You can't take the cells out of laser guns

[Septavius]

just shove your arm into the recharger.

[Cheimon]

This is why our lasguns need power packs.

Incidentally, if you could choose to graft any weapon onto you as security, it would be a stunbaton. You'd remove the massive risk of getting disarmed of it, whereas with ranged weapons you're hopefully not getting close enough for that to be a possibility.

Why not both? A stunbaton for one arm, a laser gun for the other. Now you too can be a pseudo-Secborg.
(You should be able to use a laser cannon from R&D as well, if you have one. Robocop would be proud.)

The Ten Thousand Metal Man.

We have the technology, but not the competence.

By the way, Power Armor concepts had these: https://github.com/NTStation/NTstation13/pull/782

You can clean up and use that code for such a thing.

But now I have to handcuff people with my feet.

[DemonFiren]

You can handcuff them when you've dragged their corpses to the permabrig.

You have a laser gun. Handcuffs are temporary; death is permanent.

[ShadowDimentio]

Laser guns and such really should be able to be upgraded with R&D parts and new cells, but that's a different story.

Someone code this and make it so it looks like the Megaman pew pew blaster thing

[Void Slayer]

What if you could switch between various "installed items" and your normal hand like a changeling using arm blade?

To everyone going on about replacement cells, imagine what happens when instead of being forced to recharge the limited shots in a gun a guy just comes at you with a backpack full of cells and never has to back down.

[Jacquerel]

if you have a gun arm you should be able to eat batteries to take toxin damage and recharge your gun

It's simple, don't make them easy to swap.

Screwdriver, pull the old cell out, put new one in, screwdriver

The laser has to be in your hand for every step too

I think those are called Steelrifles.
