Actually, the giant Ion Crystals in the PCF are a product of the facility's Ion Crystal fabricator. The giant pedestal there is the actual fabricator. It wouldn't make much sense for the energy from the PCF to be channeled to the gun, as it would, or should, be for the PCF's containment capabilities. I mean, they had display cases full of, like, nanites and a Destiny- looking thing designed to blow up an entire solar system.
