Laser pistol (GRA)

The AEP7 laser pistol (GRA) is an energy weapon added with the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Characteristics
The laser pistol returns as the entry level energy pistol in Fallout: New Vegas. The laser pistol is one of the weakest energy pistols, but is also the most common. Unlike the majority of the weapons in New Vegas, the laser pistol does not have a "true iron sights" function.

Like other energy weapons, the laser pistol has a multiplier on critical chance, making critical hits more frequent with this weapon over most others. Critical hits that are fatal reduce enemies to piles of steaming ash, this process does not damage any equipment or items the victim was holding or wearing prior to their death.

By nature of firing a beam projectile, its shots will instantly hit, negating any need to lead the shot. Additionally, the laser pistol's beam will ignite any gas leak traps that it passes through.

The laser pistol (GRA) is an AEP7 laser pistol specially designed by the Gun Runners to accept weapon modifications not available for the standard variant. The laser pistol (GRA) has exactly the same statistics and appearance as the laser pistol. The GRA AEP7 also features a new firing sound.

A laser pistol can be repaired by copies of itself and its variants or any one handed energy weapon with the Jury Rigging perk. A fully repaired laser pistol can fire 996 shots, roughly 32 magazines, before breaking. It is also an improved holdout weapon, meaning it can be smuggled into weapons-free zones provided the player has a Sneak skill of 50 or more.
