Shock Gloves vs Immunity, Can Shock Gloves overcome Weapon Immunit Options

[Calemyr]

Some questions on Shock Gloves:

1) Can the Shock Gloves overcome Normal Weapon Immunity (such as an elemental would have)? Naturally, I mean the shock damage not the initial impact. If I read the book correctly, Shock attacks counts as electrical damage, which would be elemental and not "normal".

2) If it does, how would the attack work against spirits? Would it treat force as armor, half force, or none, or something else entirely?

3) If you have a power boost due to bone lacing (i.e. +4 from titanium), does that stack with the -1 from the gloves?

If I understand this correctly, and the shock effect ignores NW Immunity, why isn't it standard issue among shadowrunners (like form-fitting armor and the like)? It's sure a frell of a lot cheaper than a weapon focus.

Thanks
