Do you the Gun Runners Arsenal DLC? If so Chet should sell Plasma Pistol and Laser Pistol GRA. Sometime he'll just sell regular plasma pistols as well without the DLC. In good springs cave, there is a dead bright follower that should have something. There is a laser rifle in Niption. Eddie at NCRCF has a plasma pistol. The leader of the Primm gangsters has an incinerator. Once you get to Novac there are a lot energy weapons near the Repconn test site, usually including Plasma Defenders which you can use most the game. If you go into the area for Lonesome Road you can get an Arc Welder and then leave without fighting anything.

Closest to Goodsprings is Goodsprings Cave. which is a marked location a couple of hundred yards due East of Goodsprings Gneral Store. In there you'll find the body of a ghoul who always has a random energy weapon on him. If you're lucky it will be a laser rifle or plasma rifle. Maybe save before you enter and reload if you don't like what you get.

When you travel around, before you get to the Strip, you will get to a place called Novac. Once you reach Novac, you can go into the Dinosaur (it is giant, you can't miss it). You will walk past the shop owner, Cliff Briscoe, and go up the stairs to the left. Between 9 AM and 9 PM Manny Vargas will be there on guard duty. Talk to him to initiate a quest and he will send you West to the REPCONN Test Site. As you walk towards it, you will find the bodies of some ghouls in black robes. Every single body you pass will have an energy weapon on it and some ammo. There are multiple bodies in the REPCONN Test Site.

if you tag energy weapons you get a laser pisto, right from the get go vs a 9mm, also one of the metal boxes in did Mitchell's house should have a laser pistol in it, it should be on the shelf close to the vigor tester machine

look for dead bright followers scattered around the wasteland. they always have an energy weapon on them. there is one underneath the overpass just south of sloan. easy to get to right at the start.

there are also a few laser rifles around nipton. one is next to a dead body in the trailer park section, and another is in a bathtub. i believe it is in the house with all of the traps in it. you can also get a plasma pistol in nipton in the house with the mr gutsy. it is under the work bench

once you get to vegas, silver rush

If you don't mind a little (or a lot of) thievery:


Go to Van Graff's (the Silver Rush) in Freeside.

Pick up and carry energy weapons and ammo into the side room (using the analog stick to "carry" them").

Drop the weapon or ammo in the side room and crouch so that you are labelled as "hidden". Closing the door helps.

Steal the weapon or ammo.

Repeat until you are satisfied.

Repconn HQ is fairly easy to find and offers the excellent Q-35 MM for easy/totally avoidable combat.
