Tim buys stuff in the underground. He generally offers 40% of its worth.
The plasma rifle sells for 4700 credits so it would be worth ~12000.
But as it's very powerful and doesn't break, and you don't need credits, just
keep the plasma rifle.
Above ground:
Gilbert doesn't sell anything, but he does exchange stuff.
Trade ENERGY REGULATOR(700 at Larry's) for a MICROSTAT.
Also, look in back for a MULTIPLIER TUBE Gilbert threw out.

In general he charges 1/10 the value of a broken weapon.
Also, you can find booster pills when you climb down from your cell in the
Rehabilitation Center. But you can't sell them, and they're not really very
good for you.
