Notes
- Any regular Plasma Rifle will set Harold on fire, but like all unique weapons, Harkness' does not. It will still detonate gas leaks like most other energy weapons.
- This Plasma Rifle is unavailable after completing "The Replicated Man" by giving Dr. Zimmer the Android Component. It is still possible to receive the rifle and complete the quest this way, but it must be obtained before giving Zimmer the component.
- At full condition, it is one of the most valuable weapons in Fallout 3.
Bugs
The name of the rifle may change to just "Plasma Rifle" in the Pip-Boy menu, but none of the weapon's stats will change.
