First, an observation I had:
- 10 doses = 1 liter (See Game Effects of Z-IC Splash Grenades, page 117
of M&M).
- Ammo Capacity of Super Squirt (20 "doses") is 2 liters of DMSO + 2
liters of a chemical.
- A gun with two two liter bottles strapped to it (The Ares Super Squirt
II) has a Concealability of 7.

Here are some ideas I had (along the lines of CC mods) for the Super
Squirts:

Extended DMSO clip (DMSO clip is located in front of trigger)
Effect: -1 Conceal/+100% DMSO ammo capacity/+.25 kg weight.
Cost: ?

Extended chemical clip (Where is the chemical clip located? I think along
barrel in Super Squirt [ie, where you expect firing mechanism to be] and
parallel to DMSO clip in Cascade.)
Effect: -1 Conceal/+100% chemical ammo capacity/+.25 kg weight.
Cost: ?

Extended CO2 resevoir (Located in grip for Super Squirt; in stock for
Cascade)
Effect: -1 Conceal*/+100% C02 ammo capacity/+1 kg weight.
Cost: ?
*In the Super Squirt, if the chemical clip is moved to forward of the
trigger as below (see Parallel chemical clip modification), the CO2
canister can be extended into the space left by the chemical clip. In
this case, this modification does not reduce concealability.

CO2 "clip" (Installs a removeble version in clip style in addition to, or
in replacement of, the CO2 canister in grip. Removing or loading a CO2
clip takes 1 Complex Action.)
--In addition to existing CO2 resevoir--
Effect: -1 Conceal*/+1.5 kg weight/+100% CO2 Ammo Capacity
Cost: ?
*In the Super Squirt, if the chemical clip is moved to forward of the
trigger as below (see Parallel chemical clip modification), the clip can
be mounted in the space left by the chemical clip. In this case, this
modification does not reduce concealability.
Both CO2 resevoirs can take the extended CO2 resevoir modification above.
--In place of existing CO2 resevoir*--
Effect: +.5 kg weight
Cost: ?
*In the Cascade, the clip takes the form of a detachable stock (does this
sound impractical to anyone else?) and does not reduce Concealabilty.

Bullpup configuration:
As for normal firearms? Available as a modification for the Super Squirt
but does not improve concealability unless chemical clip is moved to
forward of the trigger as below (see Parallel chemical clip
modification). In this case, improve concealability by 1.

Super Squirt II Only:
Parallel chemical clip (Makes DMSO & chemical clips parallel clips [ie,
imagine two normal firearm clips mounted side-by-side, fused together,
and both feeding into the weapon.])
Effect: -50% DMSO and Chemical ammo capacities (can be used with extened
clip options to restore ammo capacity) -.5 kg weight
Cost: ?
