Weapon Upgrades
Combat Optics +5 to Perception checks to detect hidden enemies. Heat Sink Reduce overheat rating by 1. Upgrades that modify overheat cannot be applied ot weapons without an Overheat rating. Frictionless Materials Reduce overheat rating by 2.Upgrades that modify overheat cannot be applied ot weapons without an Overheat rating. Rail Extension Once per encounter deal an additional die of damage. Additionally, if the weapon has the increased weapon damage modification from the Tech Specialist feat the equipment bonus to damage increases to +3. High Caliber Barrel This upgrade causes a - 1 penalty on all attack rolls with the weapon, but the weapon deals + 1 point of damage per die and increases it's Overheat rating by +1. Upgrades that modify overheat cannot be applied ot weapons without an Overheat rating. Scram Rail Increases the weapon's critical damage by one die (e.g. 3d8 becomes 3d10, maximum 3d12). Recoil Damper Reduces penalties for Double or Triple Attack feats by 2 Kinetic Coil Once per encounter it allows the wielder to reroll a natural 1 on any attack roll, keeping the second result. Full Auto Conversion Allows a weapon that normally fires only in select fire mode to act in autofire mode. Switching between the two modes is a swift action. This upgrade cannot be applied to shotguns or sniper rifles. Retractable Stock Any Assault Rifle, Pistol, or Submachine Gun can have a retractable stock added. This upgrade requires 1 upgrade point for a pistol, but 0 upgrade points for a rifle. (A rifle already has a stock, which can be replaced with the retractable stock.) Certain weapons come with a retractable stock as a standard feature, as detailed in their descriptions. No upgrade points are spent in this case.

Rangefinder The weapon takes no penalty when used to attack a target at short range. Sniper Switch A sniper switch allows a weapon that can normally be fired only in autofire mode to be used in single-fire mode. However, the weapon no longer has reduced autofire penalties when braced because it is no longer an autofire-only weapon. Switching between the two firing modes is a swift action. Hair Trigger Once per encounter the wielder of a weapon with a hair trigger that uses the Rapid Shot feat to modify ana ttack roll may reroll the damage from the attack, keeping the better result. Double Trigger If a character has Careful Shot, he gains a +2 bonus on attacks if he aims with a weapon that has a double trigger (rather than the normal +1 bonus provided by the feat). Targeting Scope Installing a targeting scope on a rifle or pistol requires 10 minutes and a DC 10 Mechanics check. A standard targeting scope reduces the range by one category (for example, from medium to short range). However, you must aim at your target to gain this
benefit, and you lose the benefit if you change targets or lose line of sight to your target. Ammo Modifications Low-Light Scope A low-light scope functions the same as a targeting scope in normal light. However, after aiming at a target, it allows the wielder to ignore concealment (but not total concealment) from darkness when attacking that target. Installing a Low_Light Scope on a rifle or pistol requires 10 minutes and a DC 10 Mechanics check. Reinforcement Reinforcement is a process that adds a layer of tough composite material across the surface of any piece of gear. This gives the gear +2 DR (maximum 20). Spring Loaded If you have the Quick Draw feat, you may draw the item as a free action once per turn. Any weapon that can be held and used in one hand can be spring-loaded. Readying a spring-loaded piece of equipment is a swift action. Bipod Preparing a bipod for use is a move action, and you cannot prepare a bipod unless you are either prone or adjacent to low objects (or other waist- to chesthigh cover) that are between you and your target. If you move, you cannot use the bipod until you prepare it again. A bipod counts as a mount for any weapon that requires it (such as the machine gun). For other weapons, a bipod makes aiming easier. If you have already aimed at or attacked a particular target, each subsequent aim action requires only a single swift action (under these circumstances, a character with the Sniping Master talent can aim as a free action once per round). This benefit is lost if you attack or aim at any other target. A bipod adds 20% to the weight of the weapon (minimum 1 kg).
