The cowboy repeater is a lever-action rifle firing small-caliber [[.357 magnum round]]s. It has a peep sight similar to that of the [[brush gun]] and [[This Machine]]. Due to the gun having a tube magazine, it is reloaded by hand one bullet at a time, as such it can be interrupted mid-way through reloading and fired if needed. Because of this, it gives the gun the added advantage of being quickly available to fire again if only a single/few rounds are needed. The cowboy repeater also appears to be the "standard rifle" for [[Recruit legionary|Recruit legionaries]].

The cowboy repeater is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics

The cowboy repeater is a lever-action rifle firing small-caliber .357 magnum rounds. It has a peep sight similar to that of the brush gun and This Machine. Due to the gun having a tube magazine, it is reloaded by hand one bullet at a time, as such it can be interrupted mid-way through reloading and fired if needed. Because of this, it gives the gun the added advantage of being quickly available to fire again if only a single/few rounds are needed.

Its low Guns skill requirement of 25 makes it an effective choice of weapon for a player character with only a modest investment in the Guns skill.

Durability

The cowboy repeater can fire a total of about 595 standard rounds, the equivalent of 85 reloads, or 55 reloads when modified with the long tube, from full condition before breaking.

Notes

  • The iron sight isn't zeroed correctly, so it shoots slightly to the left.
  • The cowboy repeater appears to be the "standard rifle" for Recruit legionaries.
  • At later levels, the Cowboy perk makes a fully modified cowboy repeater a useful weapon, with the +25% damage bonus from the Cowboy perk, combined with the common .357 ammunition and ease of repair, makes it a good all-purpose weapon.


Behind the scenes

  • It is loosely based on the Winchester Model 1892.[1]
