No, its light on laser pistols because because their gravity-related technology is so ridiculously advanced that artificial gravity propelled projectile sidearms are so much better than lasers would be in the setting that using power cells to power laser pistols in the setting makes about as much sense as using gunpowder charges to provide the energy to cock hand-fired crossbows makes in our world. (And, apparently, the breakthrough happened early enough that laser pistols were never the main sidearm thing.)
