User:Kastera1000/Peggy & Sue

Peggy & Sue are unique weapons in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background
Peggy & Sue were provided to Theodore "Texas" Calhoun after he was employed by the Alamosa Trading Company. They were supposed to be used in the way that if one revolver crapped out, the other could be used instead. However, Texas simply used both at the same time. On a long caravan route from southern Wyoming to eastern Utah, Texas engraved the names PEGGY and SUE into the grips to add some flavor.

Characteristics
Peggy & Sue are dual-wielded revolvers, meaning they can only be used to their full potential by a character with the Pistolero perk. Otherwise, Peggy & Sue can only be used separately, making them Peggy or Sue. The pistols are double-action allowing for faster shooting. However, the revolvers are slightly less accurate than a single revolver because the dual-wielding feature doesn't let the wielder extensively aim and line up a shot. However, this lost accuracy is replaced with sheer firepower with double the rate of fire of a normal revolver.

The revolvers are unlike anything else seen in the Mojave wasteland before. To a point, they look similar to .44 magnum revolvers, but are manufactured from a cleaner metal with more sheen. The barrels are also longer than any conventional pre-War revolver, leading people to make accusations that Alamosa Trading Company build and refurbish their own revolvers. Alamosa has denied this.

Variants

 * .44 magnum revolver
 * Mysterious Magnum

Locations

 * Peggy & Sue is found in possession of Theodore "Texas" Calhoun, sheriff of Coyote Bluff.

Behind the scenes
The names "Peggy" and "Sue" are taken from the 1957 rock 'n' roll song Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly.
