The +40 damage is for EACH beam, thereby increasing its damage potential by 120 per shot, and this value is not mitigated by your damage resistance, nor the condition of the gun itself. This weapon has an object effect that allows it do 40 additional HP of damage when the target is the player. This weapon is smaller than a normal AER9 laser rifle, yet it's one pound heavier. Since each pull of the trigger consumes three microfusion cells, it has an effective magazine size of eight shots. Unlike the Metal Blaster, and Protectron's Gaze, it expends three microfusion cells per shot instead of just the one. The new emitter fires three laser beams with each shot. It lacks the tube on the bottom length of the barrel, but has a new emitter aperture, wire assembly, and a darker color. The tri-beam laser rifle has the appearance of a "sawed-off" laser rifle.
