Plasma gun (Fallout 76)

The plasma gun is a ranged weapon in Fallout 76.

Characteristics
Similar to pipe weapons, the player can only craft a pistol type weapon. Changing the grip to a stock will change the name and weapon type to plasma rifle. Enemies killed with the plasma gun can sometimes be liquified into green plasma goo, which allows the recovery of nuclear waste from the puddle.
