i suggest to change all soviet smgs to this weapon
- Service Designation: Standard M-G short pattern Lasgun/Lasrifle
- Weight: 2.3 kg
- Length: 900 millimetres
- Magazine Type: 19 megathule range (rechargable)
- Type of Fire: Single shot or fully automatic
- Rate of Fire (cyclic): 350 shots per minute
- Shot Intensity: Low to high
- Sights: adjustable, back and front sights with optional laser sight/integral optics
The Lasgun uses a small portable capacitor power pack to produce a focused pinpoint laser beam which is strong enough to take an ordinary human arm off with one shot but is not as effective against the more durable alien bodies and stronger types of personal armour. A Lasgun’s beam also cauterizes the wounds it inflicts due to the immense heat given off by the shot.
The high amount of energy carried by the photons of the beam causes the immediate surface area of a target to be vaporised in a small explosion.
by a small rechargeable power pack located beneath the weapon and in front of the trigger guard which can be recharged in a number of ways, including by sunlight. These power packs can also be “overcharged”, which causes the pack to explode, turning the weapon into a makeshift grenade.
I think this is a fair compromise for soviey smgs, obviously the lasgun should do between 500 and 1500 dmg with 0.1 horizontal and vertical recoil since it is a laser weapon, furthermore the dispersion should be capped at 0.2.
