House Rules — Firearms
Customization in Chargen
Firearms may be customized in chargen without gunsmithing cost and with no gunsmith contact. However, you must pay the full price for each part - you cannot upgrade with the difference in cost.
Parts from the Firearm Customization rules in Cannon Companion that have no nuyen cost may be obtained in chargen by paying the Design Points (DP) times 8.
After chargen, a PC Gunsmith may use the Firearm Customization rules from Cannon Companion to modify weapons. An NPC Gunsmith contact may also be used, as per those rules. They typically have a B/R skill of 4 and don't use karma pool.
Finally, weapons with modifications that come as stock are 'integral'. These modifications cannot be removed, only upgraded. For example, a laser sight may be upgraded to an extended laser sight, or a laser designator. A silencer may be upgraded to a sound suppressor.
Defensive and Offensive HE/AP Grenade errata
Defensive (HE or AP) and Offensive (HE or AP) have an availability of 5/4 days. All other stats remain the same. They left out the Availability number for these.
