The automatic anti-materiel rifle (A-AMR) is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
This weapon is a fully automatic version of the bolt-action .50 caliber Anti-materiel rifle that is designed for use against military equipment and light armored vehicles. The A-AMR is similar in design principle to that of a Automatic Cannon, delivering several high power shots at long distances with great accuracy, although chambered in a smaller caliber for softer targets. As such, the A-AMR has extremely high damage and low weapons spread and comes pre-equipped with a scope. Offsetting this is its slower rate of fire for an automatic weapon and that the weapon itself weighs 28 pounds making it the heaviest shoulder fired weapon in the game.

When fired from the hip (without aiming), the resulting recoil from the weapon's large caliber will result in the player character sometimes falling down, which may lead to the players death, aiming down the scope will not push the Courier back as much. In first person, however, if you actually pay attention to your surroundings, you can see the character physically moving backwards after each shot. After a few magazines he/she will have moved back a considerable distance.

Locations

 * The rifle is only carried on the legendary hunter Nashorn1127, and cannot be taken from him (as he will kill you) or found in the wasteland.

Gatling Plasma Rifle
The Gatling plasma rifle was a heavily modified version of the Winchester P94. A motor like that of the minigun's was added, as well as two more barrels. The rate of fire is rather low, but it is still the highest of any plasma weapon. The gun was created in 2264 by an Enclave scientist. However, when he was framed for treason, he fled his home in the middle of the night and was never seen again. However, many of these weapons have begun appearing in the wasteland, in crates marked with anti-enclave propaganda. It seems the scientist is fighting the battle against the enclave in his own way; empowering the people.

Laser Assisted Gauss Rifle
The R34 LAGR was a pre war experiment in combining a gauss rifle and laser weapon into one easy to use package. The result was a large sniper rifle that firs 2 projectiles with each pull of the trigger. The first is the standard hyper velocity 2mm magnetized bullet, while the second, which is fired after a 0.04573 second delay, is a laser designed to inflict burn damages to the wound the bullet caused and give the target major soft tissue damage. On a critical hit the laser is known to set the target aflame.
