As with the Laser weapons before, we've learned how to disassemble Gauss weapons now.
They can be broken down into 4 main components: Energy Weapon Parts, Gauss Coils, Energy Capacitors and Heavy Power Couplings. Here's the breakdown of how many parts various types and sizes contain:

Small: 1/1/0/0 Sub: 1/2/0/0
Standard: 2/1/1/0 Large: 3/2/2/0
Large Auto: 3/3/1/1 X-Large: 4/2/4/1
X-Large Auto: 5/4/3/1 Small Craft: 10/4/4/2
Large Craft: 20/8/8/4
