Hi, Per,
I started answering this, then wondered, is this thread talking about FO or FO2, or both? It doesn't seem to be specified.
Anyway, here's what I wrote:
"I haven't played the game for a few months now (though I still lurk here from time to time, and one of these days I will start playing FO &/or FO2 again). So, my memory is a little fuzzy, but I think the only LE BB gun I have found so far came from one of the special encounters. I think it was in one of the crates in the used car mart."
Then I got curious & started checking guides. Hmm, no mention of a used car lot in FO2 encounters, must have been FO.
Sure enough, in your FO guide, I found mention of this:
"Car mart: Bob is a loon, crazy and just insane. Inside the shack you find a Red Ryder BB Gun and a Red Ryder LE BB Gun."
So, I guess I haven't come across a LE BB gun in FO2 yet.
BTW, a question I was going to ask when I started playing again, is there a source for BB's in the game? I found the LE quite useful. I had kept the BB's from the other Red Ryder BB gun, &, IIRC, from Johnny's gun, but even cutting back on it's use the last bit I was playing, I've made significant inroads into the last hundred BB's. I don't recall seeing any for sale anywhere (let's see, in FO, I had returned the water chip, and started exploring, looking for the Glow, so there's still a fair amount of the game not seen). Do you eventually run out of ammo for the LE, or is there an additional source of supply somewhere?
Glad to see this forum is still going; hope that doesn't change.
Regards,
Dako-ta
