“Rigorous combat training means that those favoring V.A.T.S. and who have a keen collection of automatic guns (the Weapons chapter lists the specific armaments) are bound to enjoy this perk. When firing from your hip (without V.A.T.S. or aiming down your sights), your accuracy is also improved, so fast-moving Bloatflies are much less of a pest, and more dangerous foes go down under a hail of more damaging bullets.”— Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide perk description
Commando is a perk in Fallout 4.
Effects
The perk has five ranks, with each rank increasing the damage dealt with automatic weapons by 20%. In addition, the second and third ranks each grant 10% increased hip-fire accuracy for a total of 20%. The fourth rank grants a 4% chance to stagger a target, and the fifth rank increases this chance to 6%.

In order for a weapon to be affected by this perk, it has to be equipped with a mod that turns it into an automatic weapon.
Once turned into an automatic weapon, the following weapons are affected by the Commando perk:
Notes
- The perk does not affect automatic heavy weapons, such as the minigun.
- The submachine gun only has automatic weapon mods, hence it is always affected by this perk.
- The Handmade Rifle, introduced with Nuka-World, utilizes all five ranks for different modifications to it.
