That Gun

That Gun is a unique weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics

 * This appears to be a version of the gun from the movie Bladerunner*

That Gun is a heavily modified, pared down .223 pistol, successor to the pistol from Fallout and Fallout 2. It weighs a hefty 5 pounds and has a motorized cylinder and crane for quicker shooting and reloading than a typical revolver. Until the advent of the Gun Runners' Arsenal it had the unique capability of using dedicated armor piercing rounds, something that no other pistol in the game was capable of.

Along with Lucky, it has the second highest potential critical hit chance (95%) of all one handed non-energy guns, right after the silenced .22 pistol.

Variants

 * 5.56mm pistol

Location
It's located in Novac, inside the Dino Bite Gift Shop. It can be purchased from Cliff Briscoe, or if you prefer, stolen from the storage room. It is on the end of the first shelf loaded with souvenir rockets to the right. The storage room key can be pick-pocketed or the lock may be picked (very easy). The key may also be purchased during the quest Come Fly With Me or any time after its completion.

Bugs

 * If loading a saved game from the main menu in which you have That Gun equipped and drawn, the reload animation takes twice as long as normal. This can be solved by simply switching to another gun and then back again.
 * That Gun is not affected by The Professional perk. Curiously, its non-unique counterpart, the 5.56mm pistol, is affected by the perk.
 * Rarely, when you are aiming down the sights of That Gun, when you turn right or left the camera will instead pivot from your shoulders, but your gun will stay in the same spot, causing it to careen to the right and left. You can even move your head backwards, to the point that you can see your shoulders in first person.

Behind the scenes

 * According to J.E. Sawyer, its name is derived from the fact that many players referred to the .223 pistol as "That Gun from Fallout and Fallout 2."
 * Like the .223 pistol, That Gun is modeled on the pistol used by Rick Deckard, the main character of the film Blade Runner. This version differs considerably in proportions, and lacks the bolt handle, ejection port, and second trigger.
