I cannot figure out who drops the rifle for the new gloves from the one zero construct, I have killed atleast every npc in there 100 times, and the TaskMaster about 20 times, lots of fingers.....no rifles..
Where do I find them!?

I know the rifle has a very low drop rate, but I'm in the same boat tons of fingers but not rifles. I keep getting those stupid Boreuv(sp?) rifles.
Kill the One Zero soldiers, they drop very rarely and it can be very frustrating, but they do drop.
Was farming yesterday with a faction mate, we came to the conclusion that for a weapon that can't be repaired the drop rate seems to be incredibly low. Probably the reason why Rarebit specified that it be incorperated with the trade, as apart from the annoyance of constantly rolling out as soon as it get's IL'd the 10 TM, it's not incredibly difficult to beat.
I have previously farmed these and i feel for you its boring and long drawn!
My suggestion is to code area hacks (Artillerist & Despoiler) round up a load of the one zero soldiers (the silver ones) that stand at the bottom of taskmasters platform by shooting them once normally the group of 3 will follow you, round up 4 or 5 groups of 3 and hack away (Disruption field, Code nuke 2.0, Logic bomb 2.0 & Plague zone 1.0) kill them all and then loot away. it wont increase your drop rate or anything but you get a lot of soldiers in one place to loot in one go, rather than one at a time. rinse & repeat. i did find this rather successful but it was probably due to the shear number of them i killed each "round"

Yup, been doing the same thing for the most part. Though I haven't tried running up to the taskmaster platform. I usually grab about 3 groups at ground level, then head a little ways up the small ramps from the ground level and drop the nukes down on another group. The biggest annoyance is constantly emptying out your iventory. Or recycling one of the rifles... 
Lvl 30 One Zero Soldiers. Keep running around the base killing the small groups. It takes quite a long time, so don't expect a quick drop. I got about 3 pages of Inventory full of clothing whilst recycling holy water, stakes, weapons etc... before one dropped for me.
I have experienced both bounty and famine in farming for these things. I collected 4 within 2 hours once, pretty regularly on the half hour. Later that day, I was unable to find a single one within over four hours. The next morning I got two within an hour or so.
It'd be nice if they could drop say, "One Zero Soldier Parts" on par with the Zero One versions at a regular rate, and you'd simply have to trade in x amount along with the taskmaster digits for the one zero fingers.
But eh. Not impossible to do.
