Zhu-Rong v418 Chinese pistol

Zhu-Rong v418 Chinese pistol is a small gun in Fallout 3. It is a unique incendiary version of the Chinese pistol.

Characteristics
The Zhu-Rong pistol does the same low amount of damage as the regular Chinese pistol but has a slower rate of fire. Although its damage might not be quite on a par with other more powerful sidearms, the Zhu-Rong v418 has incendiary properties, dealing some fire damage upon hitting a target. It has the longest range of all incendiary weapons, aside from the heavy incinerator. Enemies killed with this pistol will often explode into dozens of flaming chunks.

The Zhu-Rong is able to fire 1659 rounds (about 166 magazines) before breaking.

Variants

 * Chinese pistol, the common variant.

Location
The Zhu-Rong pistol can only be found in L.O.B. Enterprises. It is found behind a Very Hard locked door (requires a Lockpick skill of 100) in the CEO's office in the case on his desk. The key for the case is inside his desk. It is also possible to reach the case by working the Lone Wanderer's way around the edge of the destroyed top floor until they are on the other side of the locked door.

Behind the scenes

 * The name is a reference to the ancient Chinese god of fire, Zhu Rong.

Bugs

 * There is a bug where only the first shot from the pistol in V.A.T.S. does any damage. Once an enemy is on fire, additional hits from the Zhu-Rong seem to have no effect.
 * This weapon is unaffected by Pyromaniac, even though the Fallout 3 Official Game Guide says it is.
