The Bolter 4000 Laser Gun is a mid-powered laser beam gun. This weapon is reasonably priced and never needs to be reloaded making it inexpensive to use and thus very suitable for the beginning stages of the game when the budget is still small, enemies are still weak and selection of armament still limited. It is ideal for general air combat without having to worry about dealing massive damage to the city when shots are misfired, or if you want to reduce the micromanagement involved in maintaining your ammunition supplies for large squards of small vehicles.
A light duty laser gun ideal for use in combat in the early stages only due to its recharging.<br>
The weapons power is lax so only weak UFOs can be downed whereas strongly armoured craft will be immune. This disadvantage is a positive when fighting within the city since its low power does not destroy buildings or infrastructure.<br>
An advantage of any recharing weapon is no cost of ammuntion.
This weapon is well suited for [[Hoverbike (Apocalypse)|Hoverbikes]] and [[Phoenix Hovercar (Apocalypse)|Hovercars]] but not so much for the [[Valkyrie]] Interceptor or the [[Hawk Air Warrior]] which can be fitted with the larger and more powerful version, the [[Lancer 7000 Laser Gun (Apocalypse)|Lancer 7000 Laser Gun]].
[[Rendor Plasma Gun (Apocalypse)|Rendor Plasma Gun]] is a powerful alternative for this weapon, as mentioned in UFOpaedia. But the Bolter 4000 Laser Gun has the same size as the [[Lineage Plasma Cannon (Apocalypse)|Lineage Plasma Cannon]], the most powerful conventional beam weapon in the game.
This weapon is a standard issue weapon on all new [[Phoenix Hovercar (Apocalypse)|Phoenix Hovercars]] and [[Police Hovercar (Apocalypse)|Police Hovercars]].

Mid-powered Laser Beam gun commonly used in airborne police vehicles. The atomic power cells contained in these weapons allow for many thousands of shots before they expire. From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia
A light duty laser gun ideal for use in combat in the early stages only due to its recharging.
The weapons power is lax so only weak UFOs can be downed whereas strongly armoured craft will be immune. This disadvantage is a positive when fighting within the city since its low power does not destroy buildings or infrastructure.
An advantage of any recharing weapon is no cost of ammuntion.
