I tend to agree with you, but as devil's advocate, the FFC is a gear card,
so according to the text on the yellowjacket, you could not use it.
I sometimes run tournaments. When I make a ruling, I need to at least be
able to convince myself that that decision is right and consistent with the
rules. Sometimes commons-sense/reality has to take a holiday :(.

Actually, it would only be 5¥ to deploy one on the Yellowjacket (picky, I
know)

Actually, I'm thinking of trying just that. There's something scarey about
the thought of a Tommygun (runner) carrying an HK227 while riding down the
street on a Harley w/ two Fixed-Fire Cannons blazing away. May be too many
cards to get rolling, but I want to see it once :). That'd be what? 8+3D6
damage.
I suppose with a ganger deck, say Scatterbrains, it could get even more
ridiculous.
Speaking of ridiculous, see my next message....
