Ol' Painless (Fallout 3)

Ol' Painless is a slightly more powerful .32 Hunting Rifle.

Characteristics
Ol' Painless does more damage per shot, has a faster rate of fire and reloads faster than the regular Hunting Rifle, and also has a good durability and can be repaired with ordinary Hunting Rifles. Ol' Painless is one of the few weapons with 0 spread, meaning at 100 small guns skill non-VATS shots go exactly where you aim them.

Thanks to its common ammo type, solid damage, and decent rate of fire; Ol' Painless is a very practical multi-purpose gun, and is one of the best rifles in the game.

Location(s)

 * In an unpickable safe in The Republic of Dave Capitol Building. Dave's Special Key required to open the safe.
 * You can get the key by pickpocketing Dave.
 * You can also get the safe open by successfully electing another member of the family. If Bob is elected he says he needs to throw out Dave's junk. If Rosie is elected, she gives you Dave's items as your "reward" for helping her. Even so taking from the safe is still considered stealing (likely a bug). If you take Ol' Painless from the safe and then speak to someone from the town, it is possible they will take it from you. If this occurs the only way to get it back is through more negative karma of either pickpocketing it or killing them and looting it.
 * You can obtain the key if you have the "You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head" quest as well. Through speech checks, Dave gives you his keys as an item to show Mister Crowley that he is dead, when in fact he is alive. This key can be used to unlock his safe containing Ol' Painless. To avoid getting caught stealing, either use a stealth boy or tell everyone in town to vote in order to make him move out of the room to check the ballot box. you could just stand there and wait for everyone to leave waiting an hour if necessary
 * If you choose to kill Dave, you will be attacked by both of his wives (as he's a polygamist). Also note that it is possible that the other residents of the Republic of Dave may be unaware of your killing Dave and his wives, and thus letting you escape the Karma loss. Another option is to declare war on the Republic and everyone will turn hostile so you can kill them with no Karma loss, since they initiated combat.

Behind the scenes

 * In the movie Old Yeller, Travis must do the merciful thing and shoot his now-rabid dog with a hunting rifle named "Ol' Painless."

Bugs

 * Even when given permission to raid Dave's Safe, it will still be marked "red" as private property. Therefore if you drop Ol' Painless and move the cross hair over it, the cross hair is red and "steal" is shown.
 * Be careful storing this weapon because any unowned item may disappear from your storage.
 * If Pronto, Smiling Jack, Knick Knack, or Moira catch you pick pocketing them, they will take Ol' Painless saying you stole it, then they will have it for sale in their store.
