@@vizzy61 not really, in the old OG version of FNV , 45-70 was one of the rarest ammunition to find out there where you had to travel to the corner of unexpected locations just to find a few bullets, this is coming from someone who has been playing the game for 10 years since its first release. Not long after the Ultimate Edition was introduced, they made it easier for fans to get 45-70 easily from merchant shops in big amount without having to explore the map, including the 12.7 mm bullets as well

People at Bethesda like to act as if FNV never happened. They gave their assets to a pretty much indie group of developers and they made a better product than what Bethesda did, and also rigged the reviews so Obsidian wouldn't get a bonus pay (FNV had to get a metascore of 85, they ended up with 84, if they got 85 they would've been rewarded with royalties. So it's common consensus that it was clearly rigged, ironic, given the FNV intro cinematic)

[@haywoodjblome4768]

@@Ecliptor. New Vegas is a great game but just because it didn't have the best reviews doesn't mean it was rigged by Bethesda. Don't forget that when this game came out it was full of bugs, bad optimization, the graphics, even at the time, were quite outdated and the game is a lot more complete with the dlcs(which you can blame Bethesda for most of these cons ofc). Don't get me wrong, fallout NV is my favorite game, but to say Bethesda rigged the ratings is a bit of a stretch when you consider the issues it had when it came out

@HeyaMaya heavy handed only works with melee and unarmed. It's a good damage boost for melee/unarmed weapons that can't crit However crit builds have a lot more ways to boost crit rate/damage then a heavy handed build. for a crit build you can stack finesse, light touch, grahms amor, 1st recon beret, better crits. just lucky I'm alive, laser commander, built to destroy, ninja, fight the power, true police stories, Elijah's ramblings. Better criticals, just lucky I'm alive, and elijah's ramblings stack multiplicatively to a 237.5 % crit damage bonus which for most weapons is more then the 20% bonus from heavy handed.

i feel like it was a bit of a nod to the .357 magnum users in-game also. while there is Lucky, myself and I know a fair few like to do 'themed' runs where you might only use something like an NCR Trooper basic gear for the majority of the run etc etc for some spice, and here was a .357 revolver that was loaded via a swing-out cylinder instead of a gate-loader AND called a police pistol so even moreso for some RP runs to literally be a 'cop' on a mission etc.

[@positivereinforcement5894]

Small tip that I found helpful for early game is if you hotkey guns that need to be single loaded(cowboy repeater and lever action shotgun for early game usually) you can fully reload by switching guns so if you fire all but one shot then press the hotkey for another you can keep that chaining. If you accidently fire the last round you can cancel the reload animation by spamming fire and pipboy and don't for get to try and be holding a movement key other then forward while doing it just to try and dodge a bit. If you find yourself with only one single loading gun you can try firing all but the last shot then opening vats and shooting twice so you reload during the slowmo, just know that larger clip sizes(even just the 2 more the cowboy has over lever action is enough) that slowmo will runout mid reload leaving you a sitting duck so at least don't use that tip against groups or even at all in some situations. It will take some getting used to and frankly you'll probably die more trying to get used to it at first but even on my build where my highest weapon stat is 25 I can really lay out some damage.

With it's modifications, it's very powerful, has a fast rate of fire, and it's a serious contender for strongest holdout weapon in the game. I always feel like James Bond everytime I sneak into somewhere with a silenced .45 Auto, putting silenced rounds into people's heads without alerting anybody that I'm around. If I can, I will figure out how to mod this game to give me a black .45 Auto with a silver grip that has all it's modifications already installed. Beef up it's stats a little to match A Light Shining in Darkness, and there you go. :)

[@calebstevens7487]

A Light in Shining Darkness is a must have. Also Joshua’s armor is badass and practical.

[@soup4261]

For anyone who wants the hunting revolver you can get the normal variant at the Repconn facility, Black mountain and bloodbourne cave.

[@wiwysova]

Worthless advice

[@CheiroDePetricor]

A light shining in darkness, simply the best pistol, shoots quickly, deals decent damage, has nice crit multiplier, can be reloaded quickly

the best place to get lots of ammo and for the best price is the Grate Khan Armory. If you have at least 80 in barter (my character had when I checked) you can sell your stuff at the best price to. So when I have a lot of gear I will go there and exchange my gear for ammo and then go to the gun runners and buy their uniques and give them ammo in return

[@vizzy61]

Is it better than the one at hoover dam?

[@joolsmacgrools1288]

It might be worth noting that you can reliably 'acquire' a .44 from Miguel's pawn shop. Along with a few other goodies including a lever action shotgun and a set of reinforced metal armor.

[@tommywinata2795]

Regarding rarity of 45-70 Govt. ammo, I believe you'll get a constant supply of them at Big MT at high level since lobs use Hunting revolver or brush gun. On Sequoia, the rangers with helmet won't appear until you progress through main quest to the point of activating Mk.2 of securitrons on the fort.

Pretty sure those helmeted rangers will appear much earlier in NCR assassination groups if you get on their bad side.

Lucky is my favorite pistol because it's .357 and a Colt 1873.

[@jghbi7682]

You can get those in real life too, uberti makes a pistol called "the cody" which is an 1873 chambered in .357

[@Unkown-s5t]

Fun fact, the glitch as to why the mysterious magnums theme play twice can be observed, sometimes when you pull it out with the quick draw perk you can see it come out the disappear and then get pulled out again. The gun gets pulled out so fast that it draws twice, this can also be observed with other guns, but the double draw causes the gun to double the theme.

[@Venoxisguides]

You didn't mention that "That Gun" is a reference to the sidearm Deckard uses in Blade Runner.

I recently found out how good the police pistol actually is I use it with hollow points bringing it's base damage to I think 56 roughly with 100 gun skill plus the maxed out stealth suit from the big MT and the first recon beret and sneak attacks it's a soft target/armor slayer it also sounds amazing

My pc barely running the game and my own personal skill makes me kinda bad at close range with revolvers, but oh man, there are hardly better feelings in video games than shotting down an enemy with accurate revolver hip shots in new vegas.

[@billwithers7457]

the beautiful thing about the ranger sequoia is that once you get the handloader and juryrigging perks, both of its main downsides are practically neutralized. SWC ammo is stupid strong and even though it will degrade your gun even faster than normal, the fact that it's repairable with any .357 magnum or 9mm makes maintenance a non-issue. A simple run through powder ganger territory ever couple of hours is more than enough to keep your gun pristine. Also, make friends with the khans. The great khan armorer has a metric ton of ammo, including a whole lot of .45-70 govt.

[@SaltyRocksPew]

Lucky is my favourite gun in the entire game. I know it's low damage but it's so easy to get and when you have ten luck and finesse, I fall in love with it. Three shoting deathclaws

Early game - Lucky is the best, early to Mid game - That gun End game - that is more of a preference issue mostly depending on play style etc. The first two are imho the best choices and if you pair it with perks for better ammo and other pistol related perks - they can be beasts :) (with the proffesional perk for eg).

[@cultofmalgus1310]

I actually stumbled across Lucky really early on in my play through. Was able to get it when I entered Prim. Stuck with me through most of the game as I took the Pistol perks and Cowboy Perks. And That Gun was also really easy to steal. I decided it was worth the loss in Karma and I was right.

I feel like with Lucky, the devs meant to put in a key and forgot, or else meant to lower the difficulty to make it more accessible but forgot.

[@MrGhosta5]

It's intentionally hard to reward players that invested into lockpick early. Lucky is actually really good. it has a super high crit chance, low ap cost, is easily repaired, and uses common amo. It also only needs 3 strength and no gun skill to use without sway. It also has decent but not spectacular spread. Also it's relevant perks such as cowboy and rapid reload are low level perks with low skill requirements. Biggest draw back is the reload speed.

[@comettamer]

@@MrGhosta5 Still, i feel like a 75 was way too high. If nothing else, a 50 would have worked. And maybe put in a key somewhere. Just seems like by the time youd normally get this gun you have others that would easily outclass it, like the Mysterious Magnum or That Gun even. And they're loads easier to obtain...

[@mr_beezlebub3985]

@@comettamer 75 seems just right to me. If lockpick is one of your three tagged skills, you should be able to get up to 75 lockpick well before reaching level 10. At least I was able to.

@@mr_beezlebub3985 Yeah, but that specifically requires tagging and using points that could be better spent. It sorta kills any RP plan and is overall a bit annoying.
