To ensure I've gotten this straight in your TU you can have beam laser turrets and pulse laser turrets mounted on the same hull.


Yup. Even in a turret. But folks never do that in a turret because of the “you cannot fire more then a single weapon/battery” rule. Far better to have 2 weapons that you can fire normally and then a launcher of some sort as a backup defensive or big punch weapon. 

Heck, with the way that ROF stacks in GURPs it’s normally better to just load weapons of the same type in a turret, but people do strange things.
