Grenade Machinegun

The grenade machinegun is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The grenade machinegun is a very powerful, late-game weapon that fires a slew of grenades at incredible speed and has a Strength requirement of 8. While it's not the most powerful late-game weapon (i.e. Archimedes II's Euclid's C-Finder.), it can still chew apart most things the Mojave Wasteland can throw at you. It has a computer screen that appears to be used to monitor the weapon's feed system, although it appears to be aesthetic.

It fires in a similar fashion to the incinerator, although its rounds cause explosive damage.

It can fire 1995 grenades from full condition before breaking.

Modifications

 * Grenade MG high-speed kit - +50% rate of fire.

Variants

 * Mercy, found in the Dead Wind cavern

Locations

 * Raquel in Nellis Air Force Base is sometimes armed with one, in relatively poor condition. The easiest way to obtain it from her is to kill her. If you are not hidden when striking, everyone in the vicinity will turn on you.
 * Can be bought from Mick & Ralph's in Freeside after you convince Mick to show you his special inventory. He will usually have two in good condition.
 * Can be bought in the Brotherhood of Steel armory in the Hidden Valley bunker.
 * Can be bought in the mess hall/munitions at Nellis Air Force Base.
 * Can be bought from Blake at the Crimson Caravan Company.
 * It can be purchased from Bardon at Hoover Dam.
 * Can be bought from the Arms Merchant at 188 Trading Post in less-than-perfect condition.

Bugs

 * Lonesome Road overrides some of the changes that have been made to the grenade machinegun in previous patches. With Lonesome Road installed and nothing else taking up space in your load order, the grenade's base damage is decreased to 0 and its item HP is reduced to 200.
 * Occasionally firing a multitude of rounds in quick succession will cause the sound to delay, hearing both the 'firing' and 'impact' sounds repeatedly trying to catch up, long after letting up on the trigger. If fired additional times when caught up in the delay, the hardware begins to lag as well, causing freezing and stuttering. This can often be fixed by firing one more time.
 * The ammunition pack may become stuck to the back of the player character. To fix this, drop the grenade machinegun, equip another weapon. Drop the second weapon before picking up both weapons.

Behind the scenes

 * The text on the screen of the gun is written in BASH script. The code itself wouldn't work as it contains syntax errors (No 'fi' ending the 'if' block.) When firing the text scrolls the same chunk of code.
