For fantasy, I certainly wouldn't mind a pulse rifle, though the underslung portion was actually a pump-action grenade launcher, not a shotgun. That's the version I'd want. I'd also love one of the big-ass, strapped to your hip, auto targeting guns that Drake and Vasquez had. And I'd make sure not to fire either of them right under the primary heat exchangers.
The actual Pulse Rifle props were made from Thompsons and 870s with a bunch of SPAS-12 junk on the latter, but here's a fun thought:
The Technical Manual for the movie specifically says that one shouldn't ever depress or squeeze the nosecap of any of the explosive grenades, because it might cause them to detonate. The M41A's grenade launcher has a TUBULAR MAGAZINE. Oops.
Of course, there're beehive shells and "canister" (buckshot) shells, but I don't think I'd have much love for a weapon whose very magazine put me in mortal danger every time I load it.
On the subject of the M56 Smartguns. Heck yeah.
Of course, you could fire them near the heat exchangers, just don't hit one, or you're gonna vaporize an area the size of Nebraska.
Aside: What the hell good would a forty watt plasma gun be? What can you turn into plasma with forty watts? I can hardly light up my dorm cell (er, room) with 40 watts through a light bulb, and my computer alone draws about 400 through its power supply.
