I don't have MFC to check at now.. but..

Propably not.

As I remember for all of laser ammo specifics (both C & D) look like:
AC mod 0
DR mod 0
Dmg 1/1

And there's no 'piercing' option.

"The Magneto-Laser Pistol inflicts the same damage as its predecessor, but its attacks are not as heavily affected by armor. "

Yap. Still, there are no statistics showed on weapon.

We tested both laser and magneto laser and dmg, range, criticals were the same.
I can be wrong, but as I remember, weapon type changes nothing more than range and min-max dmg, all varieties are based on ammo type. That's why all weapons based on .223 FMJ are a bit stronger than others smallguns.

Actually every weapon has hidden attributes, the magneto laser should be armour piercing. Like the mauser has +20% chance to hit because it is "accurate".

It's called the Weapon Perk, most times it's "no perk", sometimes it's Long Range (larger perception tohit bonus), Accurate etc., and in the case of magneto laser pistol it's Penetrate, which divides the enemy's Damage Threshold by 5, rounding down.

The weapon perk was invisible in FO/FO2, it should be visible in FOnline in the weapon description. It's what that "error" line should say, apparently.
