Lever-action shotgun

The lever-action shotgun is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics


It has the highest damage-per-second of all 20-gauge shotguns. The only real disadvantages to the lever-action are the ammunition capacity and the fact that it must be single-loaded instead of feeding from a detachable magazine.

The gun can be interrupted mid-way through reloading and fired immediately if needed. When killing an enemy with this shotgun, it has the ability to send the unfortunate target sprawling, potentially over five feet. A fully repaired lever-action shotgun can fire 496 shells, about 99 magazines, before breaking.
