.223 pistol (Fallout 2)

The .223 pistol is a small gun in Fallout 2.

Characteristics
The .223 pistol is available for purchase from many stores. Combined with the pistol's Weapon Penetrate perk, the favorable DR modifier of .223 FMJ results in this gun being less affected by armor than any other single-shot Small Gun in the game. It averages 25 HP per shot on unarmored targets and 13.64 HP on advanced power armor Mk II.

Locations

 * Can be purchased from Buster in the NCR Bazaar.
 * Can be bought from Eldridge in New Reno after becoming a Made Man.
 * Can be purchased from Mai Da Chiang at Red 888 Guns in San Francisco.
 * Some can be looted from a "gang" random encounter. Each male in a leather jacket toting an apparent SMG is really carrying a .223, while the females have 14mm pistols instead.
 * Random encounters with Morton brothers may also have one of such pistols.
 * There's one in a locker in Vault 15, with a suit of combat armor. They're on the second level.
 * Used by Lo Pan when challenged in unarmed combat for the Dragon.
