Silver Rush is your best bet for energy weapon ammo. You cannot really craft energy weapon ammo like normal bullets, you take the drained cells to a workbench and you can recycle them. You can also convert other ammo into the type you need. Buy all the energy weapon ammo you can, even the types you don't intend to use so you can use it for conversion.

Quartermaster Bardon in Hoover Dam. You need to pass a skill check for I think 50 speech, but the guy sells every ammo type by the hundreds.
There's also the Great Khan armorer in the basment of a destroyed house near the entrance Red Rock Canyon

It's a shame automatic weapons in NV tend to be awful. Especially the Laser RCW, a fricken laser tommy-gun? Like what happened?

Do you have the DLCs? If so this is a good time to do the honest hearts dlc, in the northern passage north of Vegas. The hook of the story is a few weeks caravan that pays 50 caps a day. You get the caps at the beginning of the dlc, then get tons of loot in the dlc itself.
That should give you the money you need.

Alternatively if you have a good reputation with the NCR, or an NCR disguise, you can take a monorail from camp McCarran to the strip.

Or you can do missions for the King in freeside and he'll get you a pass. Or you buy a pass from Mick and Ralph for 500 caps.

Keep in mind that you don't pay 2000 caps to get into the strip, you just need 2000 on you as a credit check to get in.

I know, right. The weapon is cool as hell, but logistically it just sucks.

Also, keep in mind that every enemy you encounter in the dlcs (mins dead money) have weapons that are based on your level. So you could easily make a load of caps with that alone. There are also the gold bars from dead money if you know how to sneak out of the Sierra Madre Vault while over-encumbered with them

Balancing reasons, they didn't want to do what Bethesda did with Fallout 3 where full auto weapons was the ONLY real choices at the end game because of how tanky enemy health got.

Even then energy weapons in both FO3/NV, especially lasers, always feel a bit lacking - except for your top-end ones like the gauss and gatling types.

OP, get your Science skill to at least 70 to unlock the Vigilant Recycler perk. Then, buy all the Microfusion Cells and Energy Cells you can. Take them to a work bench, and convert them into ECP's. Do that, and you'll never run low.

Is the weapon really that bad? I remember reading an article on certain wikipedia site that it's really good for characters with high crit chance.

If you really want a good weapon for crits. use A Light Shining in Darkness from Honest Hearts, or the industrial hand from Lonesome Road
