Laszlo also appears nearby the AntAgonizer's Lair and can be randomly encountered in places, just like Mel and other random NPC encounters.

At Lvl 18+ you have a 2% chance of encountering a Talon Company Merc Carrying a Railway Rifle.

Glitches

 * The reloading animation for this weapon only shows the Wanderer placing one Spike into the chamber, yet it will load up to 8.


 * It has been observed by multiple players on different consoles that using the Railway Rifle, especially with VATS can result in freezing.
 * The Railway Rifle causes freezing usually when attacking 2 or more targets in V.A.T.S. Mode but with single targets it works fine. Just keep it simple and not attack hordes of enemies at once. PS- Save frequently if wanting to use this rifle as a main weapon.


 * Also after reloading a save any body part will disappear leaving the railway spikes(ps3)
