Ok well i love all kinds of guns but i think my favorite gun would probable have to be the Scoped 44 Mag. If anyone els has ever used that gun then they should know that gun is the shiz! so what guns do you guys like? :gun:

Mini-gun or Gatling Laser...nuff said. They're just two great things that are great together.

Eugene or Double Barreled Shotgun

Hmmmm......I usually use 3 guns: 10mm machine gun, chinese assalt rifle, and the reservationist rifle. I've never had much luck using big guns. I usually get my energy weapons up a bit, before I go to the mother ship.

The Gauss Rifle

My 2 favorites are the Minigun and the Victory Rifle. I love these guns like no other.

Perforator from the Pitt DLC is probably my favorite for my sneaky types. Silenced, with a scope, so I can get off multiple sneak attacks without resorting to VATS.

Prior to that, the scoped .44 magnum is a wonderful sidearm because it gives a lot of punch for not a lot of weight and it's suitable as a telescope for checking out distant camps.

My normal gun complement is (I can't seem to carry less then 4):

- 10mm Pistol or 10mm SMG, good for plinking small critters
- Combat Shotgun (or the unique variant), for taking out stuff at close range (like ghouls, mirelurks)
- A scoped weapon (scoped .44 magnum, sniper rifle, or the perforator unique)
- Chinese Assault Rifle (or the unique) for tossing lead downrange

I've never played a character that got into power armor and the big guns. And I don't care for the sound effects noise of most of the energy weapons (or the resulting mess, or the horrid noise in VATS when it shows a critical strike).

Backwater Rfile, and Paulson's Revolver

i use the blackhawk 44 cal scoped pistol, you can get it from agatha after that quest, if you like the .44 cal you'll want the blackhawk. but apart from that, i use a lot of weapons my few favorites are A3-21 plasma rifle, reservist rifle, ol painless hunting rifle.

If you like the scoped .44 magnum you must complete the "Agatha's Song" quest which offers a more powerful magnum called the Blackhawk as a reward. During the "Who Dares Wins" quest you can get an even more powerful magnum called Callahan's magnum but this probably comes at a large cost and there are several consequences as you will have to destroy the Citadel for it.

It uses a .44 Magnum, not .44 Caliber.

I have the Blackhawk but I never use it unless I see raiders or other humans. I mainly use assault rifles on mutants and I use energy weapons on bugs and robots.

For when I just want to look cool or intend for others to do the killing for me, I carry Blackhawk. It looks cool and is very powerful, but it degrades too quickly and is too slow to use for long periods of time.

When I feel like getting my hands dirty myself, I'll either use A3-21's Plasma Rifle, Xuanlong, or Vengeance.

The Reservist's Rifle

gatling laser, i use it on everything, until i run out of ammo.

after i get about 100 ec packs left after my gatling laser i resort to tesla cannon

then i go to guass rifle

then... well after that im pretty much out of ammo.

out of ammo? lol

BOOOOOMMMM :intergalactic: For Some Reason I Am In LOVE With The Combat Shotgun But My Faviorte Gun Is The Terrible Shotgun And I Hate The Alien Blaster :intergalactic:

I've been using Perforator alot lately. If I'm far enough away, I can hit them and they just run around looking for me, but they don't find me. Then I just hit them again, and again until they drop. Not good for a one shot kill, but amusing. Been using Lincoln's Repeater as a sniper rifle too: good damage, but I wish it had a scope!!

I really like the Xuanlong Assault Rifle and the Reservist's Rifle too.

If you use the Perforator with 100 Small Guns and Chinese Stealth Suit with 100 Sneak you can drop people like crazy.

The trick with the Perforator is that you need to be willing to toss half a dozen rounds downrange to kill whatever is in your sights. I don't use it in VATS mode any longer, as it doesn't hit hard enough. But I like it because I can scope in on a distant enemy and fire short bursts of 3-6 shots to take them down. Since it's silenced, retribution rarely comes my way. And it lets me save my action points and VATS for when things get hairy at close-medium range.

Yeah, that CSS is awesome. I don't wear it all the time though, I just keep it with me. I put it on for "special occasions". I do occasionally drop an enemy in one hit with Perforator, with a critical hit. It's a good weapon for nuisance enemies too, ammo is plentiful, and it's easily repaired. I keep the Xuanlong for when enemies find me and they get close. I use alot of 5.56 rounds!

Big Guns: Mini-Gun
Small Guns: Scoped .44 Magnum

For small guns I like the Xuanlang or the terrible shoty.
For energy I like the Gauss rifle
For big guns I like the Vengence or Eugene
For melle I like the Tendierizer
For unarmed I like Plunkets Vaild Points

Atomic Pulvorizor (unique Alien Atomizer from Mothership Zeta). Good points are it only wieghs 2, does decent damage, and with the right perks and stuff you get a ridiculous number of shots in VATS. Parts and Amo aren't a problem if you loot all the corpses and containers.

I also like unarmed using steel knuckes, I think its the weight thing, allows me carry more junk for longer!

Oh and nades, I do like the VATS animation for them, especially Nukas

For my current char, who's mainly small guns, I like to carry around a sniper rifle just because I love picking off enemies with sneak criticals from long range, and a 10mm SMG for close range as well as the Xuanlong AR for taking down bigger enemies.

Railway rifle. 100% hands down NOTHING beats the feeling of headshotting someone and literally nailing their head to the wall.
