Gauss pistol

s are hand-held weapons utilizing electromagnetic coils to propel metal slugs at extremely high velocities. They fire an incredibly small 2mm round at speeds just under the speed of light, tearing through just about any armor.

PPK12 Gauss Pistol


The PPK12 is the only type of Gauss pistol seen in the Fallout games. It has a very compact design, but a ridiculous amount of recoil, unlike the more stable M72 Gauss Rifle. Enclave patrols were very fond of this weapon.
