I think how the weapons work is this:
There is no "range"
There is no "loss of power"
However, with everything else, the farther away you get, more a degree of angle effects you. (not good at explaining this) So if you only have one foot of possible hit areas at 10 ft, you may have 5 feet of possible hit areas at 50 feat (not sure if this would be a linear equation or not) therefore, it would be less effective at a greater range. This is why spread and recoil is a bigger deal then you might expect.
