Protectron's Gaze (Fallout 3)

Protectron's Gaze is a unique AEP7 laser pistol.

Characteristics
Protectron's Gaze is a mini laser shotgun which fires a fairly tight spread of five laser beams while expending only one energy cell. This makes it similar to the Metal Blaster, a laser shotgun which can be obtained in The Pitt add-on by turning in 50 steel ingots to Everett.

It has a slightly slower rate of fire and a significantly smaller magazine (20 as opposed to 30) than the standard laser pistol. Protectron's Gaze can fire a total of 520 shots, or 26 full cells, before breaking.

Location
It is awarded after handing the AntAgonizer's armor to the Mechanist. The Mechanist states that the weapon is crafted from the parts of his loyal robot assistant that was killed by the AntAgonizer, the event that inspired him to become a superhero.


 * You can also kill the mechanist and take it from his corpse, but this should be done while he has the weapon drawn. However should it not show up after you kill the mechanist, wait for the Antagonizer to raid the Mechanist's base and let them kill each other off, then take it from his corpse.
