The devs have said before that they're not keen on powersets that "should be a certain Origin".
Like Magic Wands for blasts, this would be better as a costume piece/power customization than as a power set.
@Roderick
I don't see why it should be a specific origin, especially with weapon and power customization.
Off the top of my hand, you can customize them to be wrist blasters, swirling runes, skull gauntlets, gnarled flesh thingies, or anything else the design team can think of.
And what would they shoot? Fire? Electricity? Toxic Sludge? Energy?
We already have all of those (Though one of the debuffs in poison is spit at foes. Did that get an alternate animation in i19? I always hated that one.).
I still think that adding them as a new way to use the existing powers would make more sense than adding a new powerset.
@Roderick
This would be a great power customization. We could have both, single, left, right, and under arm customization. Personally I would LOVE to have a single under arm cannon customization for all of the ranged attack power sets, including the AR.
I've wanted wrist cannons and shoulder cannons forever and it sure didn't help when they added the praetorian clockwork. Right now if you want to make a powerarmor character your only options are energy blast/fire blast and the big robotic gloves.
Friends don't let friends buy an ncsoft controlled project.

If you put... you see where i'm going with this right?
I'd prefer this to be a combination of Costume Choices along with Power Animations done properly myself (allowing animations from a choice of a few different sorts which would dovetail with some nice new cossie choices).
So new Costume Weapon models (for Assault Rifle & Dual Pistols), new Cossie parts for everyone (new Glove, arm and shoulder models) and new animation choices for the non-weapon blasts.
Heck yeah, as costume/power options...not as a set.
I'd make an Assault Rifle character today if I could make it an armcannon guy.

I used to fiddle with my back feet music for a black onyx. My entire room absorbed every echo. The music was . . . thud like. The music was . . . thud like. I usually played such things as rough-neck and thug. Opaque melodies that would bug most people. Music from the other side of the fence.

Make it an animated costume item like rocket boots and I'm on board though!

I am for this as an Alternate Power Animation!
I'll even double sign this for my SG member WHO REALLY REALLY WANTS THIS.
Pop Up weapons like the Praetorian Clockwork, this is something they REALLY want.

Wow, I am surprised with all the support for the costume/alt animation.
Lets go devs! Issue 20!
Well, it's almost a necessity with the new atomic combat aura for the hands.
So much Samus/Megaman awesomeness...

I will always remember playing Metroid II from start to finish.
I want one that looks like a lollipop and fires +5 teddy bears of striking!

Sorry, just a bit punchy at the moment.
