prop_telescopic_arm is a point entity available in Portal series.

This is an unused entity and was likely used for an earlier version of the Portal bossfight. An Energy Ball Launcher was attached to the arm and would essentially act like an Energy Ball turret. The telescopic arm model is missing but it can be found in the beta leak.
