#REDIRECT [[Enhanced Prosthetic#Shocker]]
Among the most common improvements to field agents with [[Artificial Limbs|prosthetic limbs]] were ones which concealed a weapon within the agent's arms, in this case a simple '''Shocker''' adapted from the standard [[Stunstick]].  It could deliver a powerful stunning blow to one's opponent although it required a power source ([[micro power pack]]) to operate.  It's ability to retract behind hidden panels in the arm or hand made spotting this concealed weapon was very difficult.<ref name=AGCO>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 110-111</ref> 
 
 
 
As with other prosthetic enhancements these were employed only by the intelligence agencies of the [[Inner Sphere]] with agents who already had a Type 3 or superior prosthetic limb.  The [[Clans]] were too philosophically opposed and the [[Periphery]] too poor to make use of them beyond rare cases.<ref>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 109</ref>  Among the [[Manei Domini]] this upgrade was available to all agents with the necessary prosthetic limb.<ref name=JHS>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 124-125, 130</ref>
