The GR looks a bit stubby, but its still huge compared to the AC/2.
I think it's the Thunderbolt you're all thinking about.
Yah, was able to fire it up for a few minutes for examples. It was the T-bolt I was thinking of, but I do remember the AC/2 on it being a lot longer (or was it the 5?). However, I also took a lot of screenshots of mechs with a GR and an AC/2 in the same component for comparisons.
Beware, 10 fullscreen screenshots bellow. To lazy to edit
Few things noticeable;
1) Sizes are definitely not consistent from mech to mech, even with the AC/2.
2) From the looks of it, there are several different artworks for the gauss. Some being wide-bore and stubby, while others have a small bore and are longer.
3) The Blackjack hero actually has a larger AC/2 than the GR. I know the angles seems odd in the screenshot (because the gauss gets colored with the mech, which is interesting), but go to the store, view in mechlab, then look at it.
4) The AC/2 on some mechs is larger than the GR on other mechs (I even checked, and its even bigger on some mechs than an AC/10 and 20 is on others).
