The recharger rifle is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Background[]

The recharger rifle is the first version[1] of a self-charging weapon with an effectively limitless source of ammunition. As the first version of such a weapon, it suffers from a limited power capacity and low effectiveness of the built-in microfusion breeder. The weapon's design was later compacted and improved to create a more advanced counterpart in the form of the recharger pistol.

Characteristics[]

The microfusion breeder "ammo" type causes the recharger rifle to automatically recharge a full "clip" at a rate of one "round" every second, meaning a fully discharged rifle takes 7 seconds to return to full capacity. The recharging will also only occur while the rifle is equipped, whether in hand or holstered, and when it is unequipped, the "clip" is emptied entirely so when reequipped, it will need another 7 seconds to recharge.

Durability[]

The recharger rifle can fire approximately 370 times from full condition before breaking.

Locations[]

Notes[]

  • Despite its low damage, the gun can be fired very rapidly outside of V.A.T.S.
  • The recharger rifle is unaffected by the Laser Commander perk.
  • While much heavier and noticeably weaker per shot than the laser rifle, it does not require any ammunition to be carried.
