BB Gun (Fallout: New Vegas)

The BB gun or Raider BB rifle is a low-powered gun in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
As a pneumatically-powered airgun, primarily used for small game hunting or recreational target practice, the BB gun is with a base damage of only 4 the weakest gun in the game, even when boosted with the Cowboy perk. Thus it is largely useless against anything larger than a Radroach or Bloatfly. Due to the lack of gunpowder explosions or energy discharge, it is considered silent, but still falls behind even the Silenced .22 pistol in DPS.

The BB gun can fire a total of about 245 BBs, the equivalent of 2.5 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

Variant

 * Abilene Kid LE BB gun, a unique variant of the BB gun. It can be found in Fields' shack, southwest of Nellis Air Force Base. The shack is right next to the main road leading into the base. The gun is sitting on one of the shelves on the left wall.


 * With the Wild Wasteland trait, the Abilene Kid gun will instead be located inside a well that appears in front of the shack. The well appears after talking to Rex upon him saying "aroo" and asking him if someone fell down a well. Doing this will cause the Courier to receive a map marker denoting the location of Jimmy's well.
