If you want the Gadget to have the properties of an ordinary shield, all you have to do it give it Accessory Perk (Shield) [1]. Add extra features if you want to make it tougher or more impressive.

(This is also an answer to the question of "why should I pay for a 7D IA when I can carry an assault rifle"? The Perk lets the base value of an ability scale with TL to whatever normal equipment is.)
