Blackhawk (Fallout 3)

	For an overview of .44 Magnum revolver models in the Fallout series of games, see .44 Magnum revolver.

 

Blackhawk is a unique scoped .44 Magnum in Fallout 3.

CharacteristicsEdit

Like the standard scoped .44 Magnum, Blackhawk is a powerful, accurate sidearm. It deals more damage than a sniper rifle, and holds a single bullet more. It has no recoil when looking down the scope and firing.

DurabilityEdit

Blackhawk can fire a total of about 218 rounds, the equivalent of 37 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

VariantsEdit

• Scoped .44 Magnum
• Callahan's Magnum - Named after famous gunfighter and security guard Harold Callahan, Callahan's Magnum is the more effective version of Blackhawk, dealing more damage with less wear and tear.
• Paulson's revolver - Drawn by space cowboy Paulson in the hostile confines of Mothership Zeta, it lacks the scope and fires a slew of pellets instead of a single bullet.
• Wernher's scoped .44 Magnum - An unobtainable version of the scoped .44 Magnum carried by Wernher. It has significantly higher health but is otherwise identical to the standard variant.
