The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Why did Apone not take the ammo off them?


Think of the smartgun like an airsoft AEG. You take the battery out- the weapon is useless (except as a club).

Why did Vaz have multiple batteries and Drake none? Perhaps they were only issued one battery for the mission, but Vasquez (the little devil) has her own "reserve" of batteries that she may or may not have reported "lost" during previous missions.

Totally thinking out loud here.

Not at all. They could be carried.

Or the fact that drake let off a few rounds at newt. So he was already down compared to vasquez.

The PR mag can hold a max of 99, but (IIRC) the Tech Manual suggested that putting only 95 in a mag reduced the chance of ammo jams.
