I know we're making this up as we go along, but going by the 1100 [generic scifi units] to $60 ratio I mentioned earlier, Giggles was charging ~$20 for a few hours of service. All good though.

As far as weapons went, this one was, quite unmistakably, shit. [...] Giggles wouldn't trust it to kill himself if he put it in his own mouth.

He needed a gun.

The FAR-Cat isn't a normal weapon and can't be used in the same way. In terms of actual guns, Giggles is currently down to a glorified peashooter with aerosol deodorant for powder. He's definitely not going to pickpocket someone who's actually armed.
