Wastelander's Friend is a unique weapon in Fallout 4.

Background[]

The following section is transcluded from 10mm pistol. To modify, please edit the source page.

The 10mm combat pistol[1] is a next-generation 10mm sidearm created before the Great War. While it is a different design from the N99,[2] it uses the same gas-operated action, allowing it to use 10mm ammunition with ease. Key differences include a slide stop, automatically locking the slide back when the weapon runs dry, a disassembly lever in the front section, safety in front of the trigger, rather than on the slide, and compatibility with a plethora of aftermarket modifications.[3]

Available to both government and civilian clients, the combat pistol could be fitted with an automatic receiver, turning it into a submachine gun, as well as a variety of optics (including the high-tech recon scopes), silencers, and other accessories to improve its performance. Of course, the flexibility came at a cost, as the combat pistol required more expensive machining and materials than the N99, consisting primarily of simple flat surfaces.[4]

Characteristics[]

An excellent, pre-modded version of the standard 10mm pistol. Comes by default with a recon scope which can be removed and installed on other weapons, a sharpshooter's grip, large magazine, and a calibrated powerful receiver.
