Forum:Companions killing good NPCs doesn't affect karma?

I was trying to get the gun Mysterious Magnum from The Lonesome Drifter and I kept becoming hated by the strip whenever I did. So I was going to try to break his gun and pickpocket it away from him. As soon as I shot his gun he became an enemy and Rex killed him. I didn't think much of it but I wasn't satisfied with the broken Magnum. So I did it again but just shot The Lonesome Drifter in the body with a BB Gun and Rex killed him, again no karma penalty. I failed the quest he was a part of but I wasn't hated by The Strip. Is this just a freak occurrence or am I on to something? L33t4life 23:20, October 28, 2010 (UTC)
