Regarding name
- Well my second name is callaghan, so i thought that it was a typo something --KieranBOS 13:37, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
So this is objectively better than the Blackhawk? I didn't think they'd go that far with DLC.
Yeah that makes more sense, sorry, my mistake--KieranBOS 13:52, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- No idea whether it's better, I'm not one of our weapon experts. The numbers are from the GECK and going by them it seems to do more damage, yes. -- Porter21 (talk) 13:57, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Kinda makes the Agatha's song quest a bit pointless except for collectors then doesn't it?67.211.81.140 16:34, 5 May 2009 (UTC)Cavesloth
- the added radio station makes it worthwhile in my view. Jdw 03:42, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Well I stand corrected, if you have to blow up the Citadel to get it, it doesn't make the Blackhawk pointless, though it sucks that the "bad karma" one is better than the "good karma" one.
Location
Does anyone know where it is?
Can you get it if you DON'T destroy the Citidal? 64.12.116.197 11:21, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[JimmyBassatti]
Thats complete Bullshit.. I wanted to f*** up the Enclave with this gun. 77.25.190.6 12:32, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
Hmm...can anyone find it without destroying the Citadel? Seems like getting a gun referencing a good guy in a movie by destroying a base of the good guys in the game is a bit...odd. --Captain192 19:34, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- i didn't like the BoS anyways--Warhammerork 12:21, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Right, if you destroy the Citidel, there is an entrance in the crater, and an exit to a walkway. Now, if you don't destroy it, the exit DOES NOT EXIST. Now, this makes no sense, as the place you find the magnum has a terminal talking about the tesla cannon being loaned out for Adam's airforce base. Really, this wierd, as you would think this room should be there. Fat Man Spoon 21:05, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Agreed. Why do they put a weapon in an underground office chamber that cannot be accessed through the Citadel. If they make a fix for the PC, they should ad a hallway to sector B, or something of the sort. I mean who is the underground bunker for anyway? A Brotherhood of Steels secret Stash? A Traitor to the Brotherhood secret hideout? At least throw in a cave in to show why its blocked, or something. --T-51b Power Armor 00:57, 8 May 2009 (UTC)T-51b Power Armor
it might also be the BOS dosn't know it's there. I could be in a part of the citadel that ended up being sealed while it was the pentagon, and belonged to a high ranking officer. Maye Dirty Harry changed career paths?-DragonJTSLeave me a message 01:08, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Ahh! But that does not explain the computer that talks about the Tesla Cannon. --T-51b Power Armor 01:10, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Has anyone tried turning off clipping on the PC (tilde, "tlc") and trying to reach the room? Or does the destruction event somehow trigger the creation of the cell? It seems like the seemingly glitchy nature of this would make this an "allowable" cheat for PC players, depending on how strict your standards are. --IrishCape 21:16, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
I wish there was a way to get it without blowin the citadel up coz im a collector but i just couldn't bring myself to do it if anyone finds a way to get it without blowing up the citadel can they post it coz i really want it
If Harry Callahan's a good character (dirty, but good) then why is this gun only given to those evil characters. I want to give it to a Clint Eastwood of the post apocalypse but I don't feel like blowing up the Citadel and lose allies for one gun.
See but you dont loose allies because the enclave befriend you. -but enclave suck so is it worth it for a weapon like that?- I really think even if you blow up the citadel and the enclave befriend you i bet there still a little pissed because you blew the hell out of raven rock -or liberty prime did.. any way you were still involved...sorta-
Scope
I find it odd that they reference Dirty Harry's .44 magnum, but don't use the ingame model of the scopeless revolver.
probably too lazy to change it from scoped
- Well yeah, and, to me, a scoped one is better because it has a scope. Also, the fact that the only unscoped magnum in the game does 9000 damage may put a damper on anything else. --Twentyfists 19:41, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- I found it very disappointing that the gun came with a scope. I really didn't feel the need to blow up the citadel for a slightly stronger Blackhawk. On the other hand, if it was unscoped I would have blown the Citadel sky high in a heartbeat. I really wish Bethesda would have made a scope-less .44 Magnum available to us. --Esscex 22:53, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Why do they have to be so lazy they already had a fully working scopeless model. Explosive InstaMash 19:51, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Making it scopeless, why? this is fallout 3, not dirty harry reloaded! Its a reference, but not exactly the same. thats what references are.
- You win an Internet for Dirty Harry: Reloaded. Nitty 20:47, September 19, 2009 (UTC)
They made Cowboys Magnum unscoped. Why not Dirty Harry's?
- They didn't have scopes in the 1800s! Nitty 20:47, September 19, 2009 (UTC)
Damage infinite?
Whats with the infinite damage signs by the DPS? --72.95.160.178 22:44, 8 May 2009 (UTC) Fucking vandal, trying to fix. Fat Man Spoon 22:45, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
More vandalism, somebody called it a badass mother-lover on the article page. I hate vandals.--Falubii 21:48, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
LOCATION ID
hey, anybody knows whats a location id for the place where magnum is? i mean i destroyed adams air force base but still wanna have this gun so i it to type in a console command "coc"
thx in advance, sydney roo
just use player.additeme
- I was able to find an ID, not sure it will work for everybody, but it works for me, so the ID is: 0700b806. I hope it helps you.
No Reward For Saints
Seriously Bethesda? No unique awesome weapon for the good guys? That really sucks hard shit man, I hope theres a glitch or something that can allow me to get this; first off, its associated with Dirty Harry a good guy (basically) second it has ten extra points of damage and third I like the Brotherhood and stuff so I chose not to blow up the Citadel, not even knowing there was an awesome gun buried beneath the Citadel! Eh, whatever, they better deliver in Mothership Zeta and give the good guys like a scoped, scillenced, Sniper Rifle or something; now that would be awesome--Shadowshudder 07:25, 25 June 2009 (UTC)shadowshudder
- Who would want a sniper rifle when you could have some awesome alien technology and why could you be evil and join the aliens when they are after revenge on the humans?
- Meh, most of the Brotherhood are not very nice anyway. They open fire on innocent ghouls and tend to look down on you when you attempt to speak to them. The only BOS members that are kind to you are Lyons and Cross. Most of the others are really arrogant. Plus the bad guys tend to get lame rewards in most of the other missions in the game anyway, so this is how they are repayed.--81.156.107.224 20:25, September 19, 2009 (UTC)
Overreacting?
IMO, you guys are overreacting a bit. Ya, it would have been nice to have this thing, and if someone finds a glitch that lets you get it without destroying the citidel, I'd drop whatever I was doing in the game and get it, but its not that good. It's not like its the Mysterious Stranger's magnum or anything. It's just a Blackhawk with a bit more damage.
- Agreed. If you are on PC you can use player.additem to get it anyways. This is the sole advantage to blowing up the citadel. The rest of it is being attacked by BoS paladins. Good characters do get a super weapon-- that weapon is called "not being blown to pieces by BoS paladins".
- If you're getting blown to pieces by the BoS then you're terrible at this game. Amorality 00:15, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Yep, if you are getting owned by BoS I suggest more practice. Anyway, thats the price for a great weapon, more people who want you dead. (BTW, I think Amorality used that phrase as a fiqure of speech) TheMaintenanceGuy 19:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
Odd Skeleton?
In the area by Callahan's office, there is a skeleton with a fan on his crotch. A little odd, huh?--FlameWolf 23:55, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
You have got to be kidding me, First Werewolfhell, then ChaosWolf, and now flameWolf? Come on, let me guss another brother?--Bayonetta 00:02, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
- Nope,this one ain't one of us. Captain TattyBoJangles Care to talk? 19:50, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
This is my first message on here so don't get mad if I mess it up, but I just made a new character (bad karma) for things like callahan's magnum and when I'm feeling bummed for being evil I just go to my good karma character, so just a suggestion.
Cross?
