La Longue Carabine

The  is a unique weapon in Fallout: New Vegas. It is a unique variant of the cowboy repeater. It is carried by Corporal Sterling in Camp McCarran.

Characteristics
It has a scope mounted on the rifle. This rifle also reloads significantly faster than a regular cowboy repeater, and does not load through the loading gate (it lacks one) but through the front of the magazine tube, somewhat similar to Lincoln's Repeater. La Longue Carabine cannot be modified using cowboy repeater mods. It already has one mod attached, the extended feeder magazine, although judging by the appearance of the rifle the magazine tube on La Longue Carabine is smaller than a Cowboy Repeater with an extended magazine.

Locations
Can be found in Camp McCarran near El Rey Motel, it is carried by an old Ranger by the name of Corporal Sterling. He is also part of the quest I Don't Hurt Anymore and killing him for the rifle will forfeit the quest. You cannot pickpocket the gun from Sterling, if you take his ammo and come back later the gun will be in his inventory but he will catch you pickpocketing him no matter what you do (even while using a stealth boy). To get the gun you must shoot him with a weak gun and then shoot out his right arm so he drops the rifle. Then holster your weapon and everyone should become non-hostile again.

Appearances

Behind the scenes
"La Longue Carabine" is a French phrase meaning "The Long Carbine." It is also a reference to the James Fenimore Cooper novel, the Last of the Mohicans, in which the main characters' rifle is dubbed this by the Iroquois, although Hawkeye (the owner of the rifle) calls it KillDeere.
