This is a modification that one of the members of my party came up with; given how simplistic it is, I'm going to allow it.
The party has been fighting a number of high-speed battles lately, both running & gunning and having to defend against fast-movers (such as hovercraft and Hermes mechs).
While the speed of the party's Locusts allowed them to keep up in a straight running competition, when it came to close-quarters fighting (such as urban combat) it became a more difficult prospect; the OPFOR could literally run circles around the mechs, leaving them with just the machine guns in their arms to fight with.
With this, the firepower of the Locusts has been upped significantly. Not only that, but by moving the lasers to the arms it can fight better in close-quarters and urban environments.

Or lose the lasers to arm hits 
There is a precedence to mods like this, see the Locust LCT-1E. Finding parts to make it should be easy enough.
