Lincoln's Repeater vs Ol' Painless

[EliteKill]

Which is better? I just finished Head of State on my new Small Guns character and I was wondering weather to sell Lincoln's Repeater and use Ol' Painless or do the opposite.

I find the only real downside to Lincoln's repeater is the ammo it uses, I prefer to use the .44 cal ammo in the Blackhawk.

That's about it. The ol' painless is cheaper with the Ammo since you can find it pretty much anywhere.

 

Lincolns Repeater is one of the Weapons with no "spread", meaning it's as accurate as a sniper Rifle.

And it packs a Punch. If you have the Ammo, take the Repeater over the hunting Rifle.

Personally I never sell unique weapons, but between the two, I would leave Ol' Painless at home if I had plenty of .44

[EliteKill]

Alright, I guess I'll go with that. It also looks cooler with UTFUW mod (or whatever its called, the one that gives unique textures to unique weapons)

keep it, then don Abe's hat and a suit and slaughter the slavers (if you're against slavery)

Repeater is like a sniper rifle but better. Go with it, you could snipe somebody from the other end of DC if that were possible :)

If you haven't modded the game at all Ol' Painless is a great weapon, I used the hunting rifle as my main weapon for the longest time until I got FOOK2. Its just the ammo which the Repeater uses, its too expensive, while 32 is really cheap and usually pretty plentiful.

^^ you talk as if money were an issue in this game.

I personally like to stash ammo, chems, armor, and weapons in whichever house I take. I like to pretend that my character is saving up equipment that would be useful for the town if it is ever attacked. Seems like Megaton would have a hell of a lot higher chance to survive a siege if one of the residents, the most bad-ass resident in fact, were to stash a bunch of armor and weapons that the townspeople could use in a major crisis.

 

Food and chems are the same way, I never use food in the game, but my fridge is well stocked with food and liquor.
