Subject: Rigger Smuggling

What with the Rigger's dependability on gear, I'm been wondering about
cybernetic enhancements like the kind that free up deckers. That said, what
about cyberarms that can "dock" specialized drones? When "docked" the
drone
looks just like, say, the bicep of forearm of the cyberarm, but when the
rigger activates it with his headware remote control deck, it powers up,
undocks, and "folds" out into it's normal position. This would negate some of
the arm's abilities, like body enhancement since only the skeleton docking
structure would remain exposed, but only for the period when the drone is
remove, obviously.
