The Smitty Special (GRA)

The Smitty Special is an energy weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Characteristics
This weapon is a GRA plasma caster with numerous modifications to increase performance. Most notably, it features a shorter barrel with larger, fan-shaped magnetic stabilizing claws on the end, and thick orange tape around the shaft. The body is also cleaner and darker green in color, with additional hardware on the side and one large yellow vacuum tube replacing two of the tubes on the front-right side.

Mechanically, the Smitty Special is much more durable and has twice the ammo capacity of regular Plasma Casters, as well as a much higher rate of fire (seven shots per second as opposed to three), which balances out its lower damage output per shot and lower critical chance. It also has a much wider spread.

Durability
The Smitty Special can be fired 1095 times using standard cells, the equivalent of 55 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
