Special Small Guns

Fallout 3 Canine CompanionColonel Autumn’s 10mm Pistol

This double damage 10mm pistol can be looted from the corpse of Colonel Autumn during the “Waters of Life” quest. After he \dies in the Jefferson Rotunda, stand near the door, place the cursor on his body, then rotate the view until the “search Colonel Autumn” message appears.

The Kneecapper

This unique shotgun is acquired from Ronald in Girdershade. Killing him is one way to obtain it. Another, less violent method is to shoot it out of his hand using V.A.T.S then put your weapon away so he’ll stop attacking. Afterward, simply pick it up from the ground when he can’t see you. With a tighter cone of fire, The Kneecapper does more damage than ordinary shotguns.

Lincoln’s Repeater

Lincoln’s repeater is a unique hunting rifle located in a display case on the top floor of the Museum of American History. It uses .44 Magnum ammunition and does increased damage with increased accuracy.

Special Melee Weapons

The Break is a unique pool cue with increased damage. Find it on a pool table in Paradise Falls

Fawkes’ Super Sledge

Receive Fawkes’ Super Sledge after rescuing or killing him inside Vault 87. It does 32 damage, versus the 25 done by a regular sledge.

Jack

Jack is a unique chainsaw found on the body of an Enclave officer inside the deathclaw sanctuary. It has the same damage rating as the Ripper, but with a higher critical rate.

Making use of the various special weapons throughout the game can make a huge difference in the overall difficulty of the main quest. Gamers who seek out and acquire as many as possible will find their time in the wasteland significantly easier. Thanks for reading the guide, and be careful out there, the ruins of D.C. are not to be traveled lightly.
