There are few guns in SR I DON'T know and love, but speaking personally, I'm partial to a few:

The Colt Government, which, for flavor, I picture as an electronic firing update of my favorite RL gun, the timeless, classic Colt M1911a1 .45 automatic. There is just something eminently classy about this weapon.

And I love, love, loves me my Salvalette Guardian.

People seem to love the sexy Guardian.

I tricked out a pair of Thunderbolts - while I have nothing but the utmost respect for a Salvalette, I found it's burst a bit laggy.

But believe when I say, there is no piece of destructive art that compares with a good light machinegun <3

I beg to differ if we are talking about destructive art then my vote is for moding up a Vigorous Assault Cannon with Burst fire (4), sling(0) , forgrip(1), personalized grip(1) and external smartgun link. Just because law enforcement should respond to multiple assault cannon shots doesn't mean they want too.

I think he was talking about a personal weapon.

But then, with trolls an assault cannon might just be a "personal weapon."

I just had an idea of using nanites suspended in a chemical bath in a capsule round.  I'm thinking this would be great for a machine pistol or SMG to disperse into an area.

For laughs fill it with universal sealant that bonds to flesh then add some juicer nanites

hmmm, interesting. So this would be something like a modified hollopoint (to use modern terms)? The round penetrates the body and the "mushroom" releases the little buggers into the target? Could work, or perhaps a dart or similar round could get a similar effect and be easier to produce. Either way could ruin someone's day. But how much of a factor would armor be against it I wonder?

I rather like that silenced Ares pistol, I forget the name.  Very subtle.

I'm trying to shave points; if there were one class of weapons to put points in, what would it be?  I'm having a hard time deciding, I want them all.
I could use a machine pistol or a shortbarrelled shotgun for more concealable longarms or automatics, I guess, but still have recourse to something more effective.  Still kinda hard for me to picture how you hide something like that, it still seems rather large.

Automatics. That's machine pistols, submachine guns and assault rifles. :)
