Locations
- The Great Khan Armorer and Quartermaster Bardon will stock huge amounts of this ammunition and its casings after the completion of Honest Hearts. Bardon is especially reliable, as he will usually have over 1200 regular and over 200 +P.
- Sold by most suppliers who deal in weapons, such as the Gun Runners, Cliff Briscoe, Mick & Ralph's, etc.
Notes
- The .45 Auto round is the only type of ammunition to have different ammunition box models for the different ammunition variants.
- This type of ammo is limited to vendors outside of Zion.
- .45 Auto rounds are one of only two ammunition types that can be broken down into exactly the same number of materials needed for their construction, the other being Rockets.
Bugs
- This is fixed in version 1 of YUP.
Spent 45. Auto casings ejected from a weapon have mangled UVs.

Joshua Sawyer: "'Did I intend for .45 weapons to be in the vanilla game?' No, no. Those were added specifically for Honest Hearts. I mean, like, they're cool, but no, I never planned on them being in the base game."
