There is switch in the same room, so you dont need lockpick and you can get it a soon as you start your adventure, far too OP to the point it makes things trivial if you get it ASAP, it outclass all the weapons in the first planet by the time you leave add the flaw that increase your magazine, and you will only buy short rounds ammo by the thousands.
