Locations

• The shock baton variant is commonly carried by synths.
• The standard security baton may be carried by Gunners.
• Two security batons can be found in Vault 111.
• Used by Vault-Tec security officers within Vault 81.
• One security baton can be found in the Mass Pike Tunnel.
• One can be found in the Natick Police Department on the remains of a dead police officer.
• Rarely carried by Brotherhood soldiers.

Notes

The security batons found in Vault 111 have a rare quality, in that they are automatically equipped and favorited whenever they are picked up. This is because the Sole Survivor does not have a Pip-Boy yet.
