Minigun (Fallout)

The Rockwell CZ53 personal minigun is a big gun in Fallout and Fallout 2.

When the Great War struck, it was already an aging design and was slowly being replaced by the more advanced Avenger miniguns.

Characteristics
The CZ-53 is an excellent big gun, especially since it's one of only 3 big guns in Fallout, and one of the more common big guns in Fallout 2. It's best at mid- to close-range shooting, where its 40 round bursts can tear apart small groups of enemies. At longer ranges, fewer bullets hit, resulting in a lower damage due to the small bullets it shoots. The hollow-point round multipliers create rediculous amounts of damage, while the AP ammo remains useless due to engine glitches.

All in all, it's a fine weapon for Fallout, while the Avenger minigun one-ups it for Fallout 2. Paired with a Rockwell BigBazooka for long range, it lets a big guns character blow apart any opposition.
