England has lasers. It's a small step. I have studied the idea of pulse weapons extensively and learned a lot about them. In a pinch and with the proper equipment I could probably make a rudimentary pulse weapon. All you really need is a way to keep the plasma from cooling. That can be accomplished with polarized electromagnetic fields, which will keep the plasma from touching anything and rendering it inert. You keep that field up and apply an even stronger field at the back of the barrel with the trigger, which acts as a switch to power the magnet.
