Exotic technological weapons grant one of two abilities to proficient wielders. The user can choose which ability they gain once per day the first time they wield it. In general pistols grant Closing shot and rifles grant Vital strike. Activating a powered weapon is a swift action.

Full-Auto:
As Semi-auto, with an additional ability. When making an attack action or a full-round attack, the wielder may fire on Full-auto. For each normal attack, the user makes an attack roll against each target in a line that extends to the maximum range of the weapon. Apply all normal penalties including range increment penalties, cover, and miss chance. This uses twice as many charges.

Noisy:
Imparts a +10 bonus to perception check to notice you. Also grants you a +2 circumstance bonus to intimidate checks.

Semi-Auto:
Grants the feat Rapid shot. If you already have rapid shot, you can instead make two additional attacks as part of a full round action. All attacks made as part of that action have a -6 to hit.

Slow-Firing:
Can only make one attack per round with this weapon.

n-Touch:
Attacks touch AC within the first n range increments.

Unstable:
Unstable weapons are too large or heavy to be used properly with two hands. Unstable weapons can be braced against a wall or with a stand as a move action. Without a brace, attacks with unstable weapons have a -4 penalty on attack rolls and only critically hit on natural 20s.

Unwieldy:
Unwieldy weapons cannot be fired unless it is mounted or its wielder can hold it as a light load. (e.g. 18 str to hold 100lbs). Setting up or taking down a weapon mount takes a full-round action. Reloading an unwieldy weapon is a full-round action.

Autograpnel

''An autograpnel looks like a rifle with a small adamantine spike protruding from its barrel. When fired, an autograpnel launches the spike with a muffled bang. The spike trails an incredibly strong and thin metal cable behind it. An instant after the spike punches into a solid target, tiny spurs lance out of it, anchoring the spike in place.''

An autograpnel’s cord is long enough to allow the grapnel to reach its maximum range of 300 feet, and the internal retraction motors are strong enough to hold up to 500 pounds of weight. The cord can be rewound into the gun as a standard action; reattaching the grapnel to the gun barrel is a move action. An autograpnel strikes with an effective Strength score of 22 for the purposes of determining damage. If it strikes a creature, it remains lodged in the target and connected to the rifle and its wielder by the metal cord. This cord has AC 12, hardness 10, and 20 hp. A successful DC 32 Strength check is required to snap the cord. If the wielder retracts the cord while it’s attached to a creature, the autograpnel attempts a pull combat maneuver check with a CMB of +16. If used against objects, an autograpnel can pull an item that weighs 25 pounds or less back to the user as a full-round action, or it can pull a heavier object that weighs no more than 100 pounds back to the user at a speed of 20 feet. When attached to a solid object, the gun’s retraction rate can be set to maintain a taut line while the gun is attached to a harness worn to aid climbing checks.
