On the other hand you might have to modify the gun to have a water cooling system. Or even make it its own spacesuit. For automatic weapons like assault rifles this might be a necessity.

The main impediment to the development of all those neat things like phasers, blasters, death-rays and the other cool Sci-Fi weapons is the property of Handwavium to tend to protect life.

It noticed that even with the Effect, a lot of its users were being hurt...and it started to ease up on the Effect so that people could develop other means of protection?
