The HVC Mk9 Lightning Gun (or simply Lightning Gun) is a weapon found in several levels in Viscera Cleanup Detail, including Cryogenesis, Gravity Drive, and Revolutionary Robotics.
The HVC Mk9 Lightning Gun is a nearly identical version of the HVC Mk9 Lightning Gun found in RuneStorm's "Ballistic Weapons" modification for Unreal Tournament (RuneStorm being Viscera Cleanup Detail's developer as well). In one of RuneStorm's forum entries, it is described as "an extremely fun weapon, capable of lifting enemies into the air or throwing them into space. The tactics and techniques of using this great weapon are numerous and we'll leave it up to you discover them all..." However, none of this is possible in Viscera Cleanup Detail.
