Laser gun (Fallout 76)

	For a cross-game overview, see laser pistol. For a cross-game overview, see laser rifle.

The laser gun is a weapon in Fallout 76.

Characteristics[]

The laser gun is an energy weapon that shoots laser beams. Like the plasma gun and pipe guns, this weapon starts out as a pistol, though replacing its grip with a stock will rename it to "laser rifle" while reassigning it to use rifle stats in-game. The laser gun has a decent rate of fire and ammo capacity with its available modifications making it a versatile all-around weapon.
