Bugs

 * Boone might lose his rifle upon exiting one of the casinos with the player character getting it instead, when accessing Boone's inventory screen you will not be able to give it back to him. He can also lose the rifle elsewhere, and it may not appear in the player's inventory. If the player character did not receive the rifle & Boone mysteriously received a replacement weapon, remove the replacement weapon(s) from Boone's inventory & continue as normal. Boone may draw his rifle from a hidden inventory upon entering combat. His replacement weapon in most cases is a backup type weapon, such as a machete.


 * Verified on PC, PS3,and Xbox 360. Boone will randomly use a machete that was never given to him even when set to use ranged weapons. (However, this can be fixed by interacting with him, telling him to switch to using melee weapons, and then immediately back to ranged weapons.)
