Just curious about this, but could the electrorifle be used as a "machine stunner" as well? since it relies on EM, it would seem logical that it would disrupt electronics as well, without a technobabble advancement of some sort.
Also, are rail/gauss guns going to be done at all? Not sure how i'd differentiate em really, other than the possability of absurd burst rates, rediculous range (debatable, depends on your flavor of technobabble) and the possability of armor pennetration/negation....
