If you work out that the 0.25 lb and $50 Holdout Gyroc is the only really common form there is a niche for that one. If you load it with flares it's a flare gun but if you load it with HEMP it's a battlesuit killer. The shotshell variety is also a shotgun of unrivalled range. Then there's the Guided version for anti-sniper work. Every soldier should keep one in his pocket with a small but useful variety of ammo.
What I would actually do with Gyrocs is put them in disposable tubes that attached to another weapon's accessory rails and interfaced with its' targeting scope.
