Mercy

Mercy is a unique 40mm grenade machinegun in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
A veritable relic, Mercy is a pre-War US Army automatic grenade launcher that was used by one of the US Army's counter-insurgency units hunting Chinese Hei-Gui commandos in the American southwest. Presumably during this period, one of its operators spray-painted Hei Gui Bye Bye on the chassis. At an undetermined time, it was obtained by the Brotherhood of Steel and continued to serve as a weapon, eventually ending up in the hands of a Paladin in the Mojave chapter. It was lost when its operator fell while exploring Dead Wind cavern.

This weapon looks extremely rusted and used. It also uses 40mm grenade instead of the 25mm grenade like its non-unique version.

Characteristics
Its higher damage comes at the cost of using 40mm grenades, which are less common and more expensive than the 25mm grenades used by standard grenade machineguns. The larger size of the 40mm grenades also restricts its ammunition capacity to 18 grenades, which is 12 less than the regular Grenade machine gun. Like most unique weapons, Mercy cannot be modded.

It can fire 2495 grenades from full condition before breaking.

The writing on the "display" seems to be written in an "if-then" programming style (used in programs like Visual Studio C#).
