Harpoon gun (Fallout 76)

The harpoon gun is a ranged weapon

Characteristics
A handheld harpoon launcher, the harpoon gun is a slow-firing, single-shot heavy gun with a high damage output. It has an electrical trigger switch on its grip, similar to the Broadsider. The gun's harpoon ammunition can be customized to inflict different types of damage on the enemies. All harpoons pin limbs by default in a similar manner to the railway rifle.

Bugs

 * The harpoon gun lacks the keywords and attachment slot for skins.
 * A harpoon gun modified with the flechettes attachment is not considered a shotgun, although it fires 7 projectiles.
 * A Two-shot Legendary harpoon gun modified with the flechettes attachment will still fire only 7 projectiles.
