The Red Ryder BB gun (Fallout) is a small gun in Fallout and Fallout 2.
“A Red Ryder BB gun. The classic.”— In-game description, Fallout
Background
The Red Ryder BB gun is a lever-action air gun firing metal pellets, regarded as a "classic" even post-war.
Characteristics
The Red Ryder BB gun has good magazine capacity, but it is almost useless in-game because of a very low damage potential. The LE variant performs much better.
Variants
In Fallout 2, a variation of the weapon can be found in Modoc, called "Jonny's BB Gun".
Locations
One gun is found in a wooden box at the "Car mart" random encounter. Another is in a possesion of a child in Shady Sands (Entrance map).
Appearances
The Red Ryder BB Gun can be found in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas
Behind the scenes
Main article: BB gun
- The Red Ryder BB gun is named after the real life Red Ryder BB gun.
- The Red Ryder BB gun is also a powerful weapon obtainable in Wasteland, the predecessor game to the Fallout series. In Highpool, the party has to fight the child whose dog (Rex) "was gunned down by vigilante Rangers," or it could be acquired via cheat.
- The "Red Ryder" himself is another reference to the BB gun and Wasteland. He shows up to fight the Rangers in revenge should they murder the children making fun of them after falling into the river.
