Requirement to get laser + Upgrade from Salvatore in Reno?

Cubi

First time out of the vault
Hi guys,
i decided replaying fallout2. I´m in New Reno making quests for the families. After completing all quests for Mordinos (exept the last one), I´m questing for salvatore. FAQs and Guides say, after getting the forth quest (Complete the transaction for Salvatoree), you can ask him for a laser pistol and then Mason for an upgrade. (+energywpns.)

The problem is I neither have the dialogoption for the pistol nor the skillupgrade by getting the quest. After getting the quest i can not talk to Salvatore anymore. (Just to Mason for traveling to the quest destination).Is this a bug or do I need some special skill-requirements? I took a lot of skill-increasing drugs (mentats, Buffouts) for testing but no success.

Can someone help me there?
Thanks and big sry for my awful english ;)

The time to ask for the laser pistol is when you accept that quest, not after finishing it. You need to have heard about them (e.g., from Jules or Father Tully) to be able to ask, and Salvatore has to like you enough for him to give it to you. The 'good' lines - just about anything that includes "Mr. Salvatore" - require 6 charisma or 8 intelligence.
 
Yeah it worked! After talking with Jules about the Salvatores and their "Firepower", I could request a laser pistol and then train the skill.
Thank yo so!
 
And the next problem appears :-(
The guide says, after having "close combat" with Mrs. Bishop, you can talk to her about Vault City and then opening the safe for a linguistic module (XP + Speechskill increase).
I dont have this dialog option after having sex. I just can disappear loudlessly and disarm/unlocking the safe, but there is no Pipboy module inside!
What do I do wrong?
With drug I got my stats all up to 10 (exept Charisma [4] and Luck [7]) Speech is actually 105%.. Could this depends on Charisma and why is inside the safe no module? Has this something to do with speaking about Vault City to her?

Please help me again :-)
 
You need to speak about Vault City to her before and after, and have a high IN (9+).
 
Before? This is possible? I´ll try...

Hmm no, I also have INT9 and there is no dialog option for vault city, before and after the sex?!
But why is no module in the safe ? Is that a bug or depends that on that "vault"-dialog with her??

Tell her that you're looking for the G.E.C.K., that might help.

I cant. I dont have the dialog option for that. (Maybe because I found it already and solved my primary tribe quest).
I just can say my name and that Im a traveler. When I say I have to go, she wants spend me a drink and further on, sleep with me. But no Vault City Dialog before and after havin sex. Why?
And the most important question I ask myself: Why is in the safe no module? Does depends on the dialogs I had with her??

Another idea I have: Maybe I have to talk in vault city with someone to get this option? But this cant be. Im sure I´ve spoken with all NPCs I met there.

*edit*
Seems to be a kind of a bug:

I don't see it as a bug. To find the module in the safe, she needs to tell you about it, which happens when you ask if she's from Vault City. For that option to be available you have to be able to guess that's where she's from, and the only way to get a clue about that is by saying you're looking for a GECK. And once you've found it, it doesn't make sense to say that you're still looking for one.

The item isn't all that important. There are only a few places where taking Speech above 100% has any benefit.
