Eldridge

Eldridge is the heavily armed proprietor of New Reno Arms

Background
Eldridge is a heavily armed man covered with grease. He is the resident gun-nut of New Reno. He has a large weapon collection on the wall and is adept at identifying suits of power armor on the spot. His establishment sells weapons to all crime families with the exception of the Salvatores, who get their laser weapons from the Enclave. Individual clients and groups are particularly welcome.

The inside of his shop carries NCR propaganda posters, while his room holds an NCR history holodisk. On his time off, Eldridge goes hunting. He lives with three dogs Packard, Buck and Missy and has two children.

Quests

 * Deliver a laser pistol to Eldridge: Eldridge will pay well for a laser pistol, once the Chosen One mentions them to him.
 * Fix the Vault 13 computer - has a Vault-Tec voice recognition module for sale.

Upgrades
Eldridge uses Algernon to upgrade weapons. If one cannot get in through the backyard, pay up!

Appearances
Eldridge appears only in Fallout 2.

Bugs
Eldridge may welcome Chosen One with thanks about: "...Damn nice work you made of the Enclave..." (see the whole quote on the top of this page) even though the Chosen One has not yet even visited any Enclave's locations.
