Fallout 4 plasma defender series#

The AERXX series are the current military combat troop equipment and side arm, most rear units and home defense are still using conventional firearms because of existing pre-resource war era stocks and existing logistical supply chains. Lasers are not that complicated, the wattz 1000/2000 series is a civilian market laser rifle and pistol which is either old decommissioned military pattern (think M1A/AR-15 etc.) or straight to civilian market firearm. This is my headcannon reconciliation for the real reason of differing art teams and emphasis of design because fuck it why not. Urban Plasma Rifles/Pistols (Fo4) manufactured weapons and seen on trade magazines Urban Plasma Rifles/Pistols (Fo3/NV) look post-war manfactured Compact and purpose built P-94 from Tactics looks like an plausable military weapon

Plasma Casters have origins as re-purposed industrial equipment near the end of the war Plasma is just a mess from a lore perspective, here is my understanding. On top of that what were civilian energy weapons? Is the wattz series of pistols and rifles basically the civilian market guns while the AERXX series are the military pistols and rifles?

I know that the BATFL is a joke but from an in-universe perspective either laser weapons had been around for a while before the bombs fell or they were so significant on the civilian market that the ATF was adjusted to account for them in a significant way. I know that Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 have really muddied this but is their any official stance on this?
