Talk:Gauss rifle

I thought that fallout 2 had a gauss rifle also? so that makes 3 gauss weapons.

Fallout 2 did have a gauss rifle,the M7s gauss rifle,my personal favourite,and its also in fallout tactics,the one in fallout 3 isnt properly named,but i call it chinese gauss rifle Werewolfhell 19:04, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

But I didn't think that the Chinese used the FO3 gauss rifle. Only the American forces did, right?--ASL93ratjar 22:17, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I wonder is this thing affected by commando (more accurate in vats if you wield a rifle or a similar two-handed ranged weapon)??

I realize that Fallout New Vegas wouldn't necessarily be added yet but I was just wondering when it would be added to this page.

Can someone direct the guy who made the question "Why are gauss rifles energy weapons" to either here or the wiki page on them? Coil rail guns are mostly electronic in manufacture, plus the fact that the projectile itself is also energetically charged (thus the explosion on impact) means that energy weapons is appropriate.

Reference links?
Are they broken? If so could someone replace them with archived versions? So they don't go missing again.--Ant2242 (talk) 15:21, 29 March 2014 (UTC)


 * Also Where is it stated that the weapons is Chinese in origin?--Ant2242 (talk) 15:27, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * It's prominently displayed on the Chinese propaganda poster and noticeably absent in any American materials. The PRC wouldn't use dirty capitalist weapons in their materials (and if it was an American weapon, then the VSS developers would not code it in as a prominent element of the Chinese arsenal). It's definitely a later model, at any rate. Tagaziel (talk) 16:15, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * How should we reference this?--Ant2242 (talk) 16:43, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I think I referenced it, but take a look to see for yourself. I have a feeling the Anchorage Reclamation simulation messes up a lot of our lore :P. --Kastera (talk) 18:11, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * If I recall correctly, both American Paratroops and Chinese Snipers used the "Crank" Gauss and the FO3 DKS variant.--Ant2242 (talk) 18:14, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Thus the separation of the Simulation page and the Event page. ;p--Ant2242 (talk) 18:15, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I would also like to point out that there is no known gauge for the "Crank" Gauss rifle's ammunition.--Ant2242 (talk) 18:21, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * And there shouldn't be any, because it uses MFC. Tagaziel (talk) 19:26, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
