Sniper Rifle (Fallout: New Vegas)

This sniper rifle is an older model of the famed DKS-501. Still chambered for .308 ammunition, it's also extremely fragile and requires regular repair and maintenance to keep it in working condition. It can be modded to include a suppressor and retrofitted with enhanced materials to decrease its weight. The tooltip says this gun has a fire rate of 1 shot per second, however, it fires at the same rate as the Gobi which is 2.5 shots per second.

Characteristics
It is identical in appearance to the sniper rifle in Fallout 3.

With the Jury Rigging perk the Sniper Rifle may be repaired with Silenced .22 SMGs, Marksman carbines and similar weapons.
