Forum:Boone as companion what guns can he use

I have just gotten boone as a companion and i was wondering what guns work best for him to use and which do you prefer

I gave him a Antie Materiel rifle after he lost his own rifle when entering The Tops..

Boone does best with a Gun, especially a rifle. I gave him a minigun once and he equipped it, but keeping him in ammo would be tricky. He also often falls back on melee even when told to use ranged, so having a better melee weapon in his inventory for when enemies get close is a good idea. I second the idea of using an AMR, if you can get the ammo for it in large enough quantites. A service rifle may be better, since 5.56mm ammo is much more common. -- 18:29, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Dont give him Knock Knock, I did, he broke it in the fist 15 seconds of combat with Fiends.

I gave him a Machete Gladius, but I ended up having to take away all his melee weapons which were better than his default one because he would start to prefer melee over ranged. -- 13:50, May 30, 2011 (UTC)

he would actually do better with a fully modded hunting rifle than an anti-material rifle because he only has 7 strength not the 8 required for it. ReapTheChaos 12:47, June 1, 2011 (UTC)
