The Vault Dweller Red Ryder BB gun is a weapon in Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel.

BackgroundEdit

The Red Ryder BB gun is a BB gun made by Daisy Outdoor Products and introduced in 1938, that resembles the Winchester rifle of Western movies. Named for the comic strip cowboy character Red Ryder, it is arguably the most famous BB gun in American history.

CharacteristicsEdit

The Vault Dweller Red Ryder BB gun is a unique version of the Red Ryder BB gun and one of three secret weapons in Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel.

Thanks to his high knowledge in Repair, the Vault Dweller has modified a Red Ryder BB gun so it absorbs and propels the surrounding air, forming a ball of air, instead of using ammunition. But since air is hard to control, its damage varies randomly from very low to very powerful.

LocationsEdit

• Carbon Warehouse Main Storage, given to you by the Vault Dweller if you save all the survivors of the raider attack on Carbon.

Behind the scenesEdit

• The Red Ryder BB gun is named after the real life "Red Ryder BB gun".
• The Red Ryder BB gun appeared in the 1983 film "A Christmas Story", where the main character, Ralph, wants a Red Ryder BB gun for Christmas, but is ridiculed by adults that say, "You'll shoot your eye out".
• The Red Ryder BB gun was also a powerful weapon obtainable in Wasteland, the predecessor game to the Fallout series. In Highpool, the party has to fight the child whose dog (Rex) "was gunned down by vigilante Rangers", or it could be acquired by a cheat.
