Assault Carbine

The Assault Carbine is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The Assault Carbine sports a very compact size compared to the R91, which was the United States' primary combat rifle. This weapon has a strength requirement of 3. The Assault Carbine can be equipped with a silencer and an extended magazine. The Extended Magazine is Identical to that used on the regular Marksman Carbine

It does low damage on heavier targets. And Moderate damage on lightly armored human or animal targets. It has a high rate of fire and a moderate spread, so should be used at close-medium range. At higher levels the Assault Carbine will become less useful as it lacks the punch to kill powerful enemies quickly.

While it's ammunition is not as powerful as 5.56mm round or .308 caliber round (Fallout: New Vegas), it is found in large quantities. As it is used for the Minigun (Fallout: New Vegas) aswell

Locations
It can be found in the Gun Runner's facility in New Vegas. Pick an average lock to get in and avoid detection or you will be attacked.
