Lincoln's Repeater (Fallout 3)

Lincoln's repeater is an American Civil War .44 Henry rifle found in Fallout 3.

Characteristics
Lincoln's repeater is a very high-powered rifle, doing 25 more damage than the hunting rifle, and 10 more damage than the sniper rifle. It lacks a scope, but remains accurate at long range by ignoring the bugged scope auto-aim. It also has 3 times the ammo capacity of either of the other two rifles, but can't fire as fast as the sniper rifle.

Lincoln's repeater can fire exactly 400 .44 rounds before becoming unusable.

Related quests

 * The rifle can be sold to Leroy Walker, who will destroy it to erase Lincoln's legacy; Hannibal Hamlin, who will equip and use it to kill slavers; or Abraham Washington, who will keep it in his museum.

Quest notes

 * It is possible to sell Lincoln's Repeater to Hannibal for 150 caps (300 with a speech check) and then steal it back without murder. Save beforehand in case you accidentally kill him or get caught stealing. After selling to him he will not immediately have ammunition for the gun. Fire a weak weapon such as the Silenced 10mm pistol into his arm or leg and then put away your weapon to make him friendly (after he switches to his default weapon). Attempt to pickpocket the repeater. You may also fire at the weapon itself reducing it's value which may make it easier to steal, though stealing is based more on luck than value or weight. It cannot be resold to him a second time (even if the stolen tag is removed by selling it to a merchant), however it can be sold to Abraham Washington in Rivet City for 100 caps (200 with a barter check) regardless of it's stolen item tag. You'll typically get more caps selling it to a common merchant after stealing it back from Hamlin than selling it to Abraham.

Location
Lincoln's repeater is located inside of a display case near a desk in what looks to be an office in the top floor of the Museum of American History offices in perfect condition.

Appearances
only appears in Fallout 3.

Behind the scenes

 * This weapon is based on the Henry Rifle. The specific example referenced in the game, with its engraved gold mounting and serial number 6, was given to President Lincoln by the New Haven Arms Company in hopes that it would influence the purchase of the rifles for use in the Civil War. The actual Henry Rifle, with Lincoln's initials carved into the gold plate, is suspended in a glass case along with a telegraph machine in the Smithsonian.
