The prototype Gauss rifle is a weapon in Fallout 4 available from the Creation Club for 400 credits.

Characteristics
The Gauss rifle appears to be a sleek chrome weapon, similar to its counterparts in Fallout 2, Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas and looks almost exactly like its Anchorage-era variants counterpart. The Gauss rifle is able to be modified at a weapon workbench to include a shielded barrel, buttstock and a suppressor.

Coils run down the far half of the gun, chrome coated and shrouding most of the barrel in the center of them. The weapon is operated using a crank which loads additional 2mm EC cartridges into the weapon up to a maxiumum of 3 for 3 times the damage (not unlike the laser musket). On the left side of a weapon is a 'magazine' however, unlike the Anchorage version, the projectile is stored in the ammunition so the use of protrusion is unclear. When fired, as with the Gauss rifle, it leaves a temporary blue light trailing after the projectile, dispersing after a few seconds.

The Gauss rifle is chambered for the rare and expensive 2mm EC rounds as opposed to the microfusion cells used by the Anchorage-era variants. Gauss rifle shots produce a bluish explosion upon impact. This enables the Gauss rifle to hit multiple targets with a single shot, provided they are clustered together in very close proximity to each other.

Locations

 * One can be found on a Gunner commander at Gunners plaza.
 * The Gauss rifle can be purchased from weapons vendors.
