Chinese Pistol (Fallout 3)

The Shanxi Type 17 Chinese pistol is a weapon in Fallout 3.

Background
Originally produced in 1929 by the Taiyuan Arsenal for the army of Yan Xishan, this pistol is now a relic of the Sino-American War. The Shanxi Type 17 was a mass-produced sidearm before the Great War.

Characteristics
While the Chinese pistol is not very useful as a weapon, they are relatively lightweight and can be collected, repaired, and sold to provide an early source of caps, or simply saved to repair the Zhu-Rong v418 Chinese pistol.

Durability
The Chinese pistol can fire a total of about 1250 rounds, the equivalent of 125 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

Variants

 * Zhu-Rong v418 Chinese pistol - While the Zhu-Rong does the same base amount of damage, it is unique due to the fact that it fires incendiary rounds, which deal fire damage over time.
 * Sim version - A simulation-only version of the weapon which differs primarily in health, with item HP so high that it is essentially non-degrading. This version also has a slightly different appearance, lacking the rust found on various parts of the standard weapon.


 * Chinese Dragoon Pistol - A cut version of the weapon is included in Operation: Anchorage, apparently intended for use in the normal game after completion of the simulation. This version has identical stats to the Fallout 3 version, but has the same appearance as the simulation version of the weapon. This version is not used anywhere within the add-on and can only be acquired through the use of console commands.

Locations

 * Republic of Dave - One can be found in the Museum of Dave, though it must be stolen.
 * Cryo lab - One can be found in a storage room here, on a table surrounded by other wasteland objects.
 * Ahzrukhal, Alejandra Torres, Flak, Jabsco, Rosie, Sister, and Zimmer all carry the Chinese pistol.
 * Raiders throughout the wasteland often carry them, but less commonly at higher levels.
 * Traders usually have one or two Chinese pistols in their inventory, those includes vendors that may not specialized in selling weapons.
 * They are sometimes found in locked safes.
 * Regulators sometimes carry one.
