So I was doing a mission and some mercenary aligned ships had these lasers on them that looked similar to mining lasers, except they were blasting me with them. I don't remember seeing any players with lasers like that. Do they exist, and if so, what kind are they?
The ships that were shooting me with them were Caracal look alikes.

There is a whole category of weapons called lasers. They are the Amarr racial turret.

I know theres such a thing as lasers and that they are the amarr racial. I was asking if there were damage dealing ones that existed like the ones that these mercenary ships were using or if they were NPC only. They graphicaly weren't little 'pew pew' lasers that fired every few seconds, they almost resembled mining lasers in size and how often they were on.

NPC turrets are assigned arbitratry graphics that may or may not resemble player weapons.
The graphical appearance of NPC weapons is no gaurentee of any other attribute of their weapon.
In summary, that is just the way that NPC looks, nothing else.

That pew-pew effect looks like small beam lasers or larger pulse lasers. You too can fire like this - fly Amarr

Some lasers pulse rapidly, some burn slowly. If you ever do a mission against Thukkers, you'll see them flying Rifters and firing lasers. Now that's just wrong!

They were likely beam lasers, as that's what beam lasers do.
Beams are awesome

I did a mission with lazer-caracals the other day.
Stupidly I thought I was going up against Guristas so I fitted Kinetic hardeners. They cut through the shield in about 10 seconds... :(

Laser-wielding Caracals are Mercenary Commanders. They have quite short range (less than 30km) with the lasers. However, their missiles reach far further. The missiles deal Thermal damage, the lasers primarily EM and a bit of Thermal.
