The power fist is an unarmed weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics

The power fist is a mechanical glove mounted with a hydraulic piston powered ram. When punching, the pistons push the ram forward, smashing into the enemy. Sometimes, enough power is transferred to the target to knock them down.
