How do I...

...yep, this is one of THOSE messages, and I I hope some of you can help me.

I go into battle in my ship, happily blasting away at the bad guys (Hey! If they aren't on MY side, they are Bad Guys!!) and busily tractoring in anything they drop when they get dusted. There have been a few times when I recovered a particularly nice piece of equipment or a weapon to upgrade my ship. Here is an example: I have, on three different occasions, picked up a Cruise Disruptor. My question is - How do I get it installed? I tried dragging it to the slot for it when I get back to port, but that didn't work. Do I have to sell it to the equipment salesman and buy it back at full retail? If so, that sucks. Help a fellow starduster out here folks. Please?

You don't have to do that, just click on the little blue icon on the top-left of the weapon's picture to mount it on your ship.

and you can only mount if if you have an available hardpoint for it.
