Quest Notes

 * It is carried by Harkness, and can be received by the player character through two of the endings of The Replicated Man quest.
 * The Player can still get this and the Wired Reflexes perk if he reveals Harkness' identity to himself, keep his secret safe, obtaining the weapon, then ratting him out to Zimmer or for agreeing to kill Zimmer for him (talk to Zimmer before shooting him though to get the perk). Note: By doing this, the player will not receive good or bad Karma. The player gets +200 Karma for talking to Harkness, and -200 Karma for talking to Zimmer, equaling no change in overall Karma. If the player does not reveal Harkness's identity to him it is impossible to achieve the gun otherwise as Harkness is considered "important to the plot" and will fall unconscious if you try to kill him. See the The Replicated Man page for details.
 * If you want to gain maximum karma from this quest, tell Harkness that his secret is safe from you and get permission to kill Zimmer. Then, talk to Zimmer and give him the Android Component and gain Karma and 50 caps. Then, proceed to kill him.
