Interstellar Ops, p.290 IINM. Imagine a Blazer made out of 2 Clan ER Large Lasers, which can explode catastrophically.

and that's why it's FUN

it blows on a 2 or 3. sub-optimal. but so is the AC/10 clint. it was a match made in heaven

It sounds great for a one-gun 'Mech.  If it blows, flee!  And until then, blast away...
Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen,
Tod und Verzweiflung flammet um mich her!
Fühlt nicht durch dich Jadefalke Todesschmerzen,
So bist du meine Tochter nimmermehr!

How possible would it be to install such a Weapon on the Clint?

Paper-thin armor, even for a Clint.
Ran one once in a Grinder. A unique experience for sure.

I'd try to find a large wrench and some gorilla glue...

UrbanMech and Hatchetman: Remove AC/10, replace with MRM-40.
Be the Loremaster:

Battletech transport rules take a very feline approach to moving troops in a combat zone: If they fits, they ships.

MAD-3M.  Swap out the Autocannon for an RAC/5.  Remove 3 heat sinks to get the weight and an extra ton of ammo
