  All the items you need for the weapons can be obtained in 3 places. I suggest you make a checklist of items you need.
  
  Start at Lucky's (south of Tenpenny Tower). Most of the items you need can be found here. However, they need to be stolen. This results in little karma loss.
  
  After that you should visit Horace Pinkerton's Lab in The Broken Bow of Rivet City. His lab has almost every other item you need and didn't get at Lucky's (the Paint Gun is hidden in a metal box in Pinkerton's Lab).
  
  At this time you should have everything except the Steam Gauge Assembly. This part is found in the Super-Duper Mart Pharmacy.

  Best guide for gathering the resources necessary to craft all the weapons. Would recommend getting the perk at level 26 to unlock all schematics if possible to avoid having to track all of them down.

  I suggest you to go to VAPL-58 Power Station, there are a lot of resources and even a workbench.
