(These weapons are used two handed!)
(Tuning can change the range division. All range divisions given in this list apply to iron sight/standard models!)
(Please look up the effects of tunings in the tuning list)
(If an encounterable versions requires a prior, other tuning to work, that version will have that tuning as well. For example, an infrared scope means that the mounting rails and the infrared light are both there as well)

An “automatic rifle” from World War One, designed by John Moses Browning. The most common version found in the Wasteland is the version used in World War Two, the B.A.R. A2, with a bipod. A gun that served the US military from 1918 to well into the 21st century.

A very rare weapon in the post apocalyptic Wasteland: a light anto aircraft cannon, that has been transformed into a squad support weapon. Popular with especially strong super mutants.
A note on the picture: The shown 20 mm Flak is still on it's swiveling gun carriage. In the wasteland, this weapon is pretty much only found singly, without the full carriage.

Standard model (with tripod): Rare
An old gun, out of the latter days of the Wild West. Unlike the minigun, the shooter must make the barrels spin, by turning a crank. For this reason, the weapon can only be shot when mounted on it's tripod.

Maybe the most horrific small arm of World War II, this weapon was nicknamed the scythe, due to it's incredible rate of fire, that was only later surpassed by more modern Gatling guns. Due to it's reckless rate of fire, it does however tend to overheat.

The Sunbeam Tribarrel Laser is basically an incredibly simple idea. Instead of building a stronger laser, they simply added two weaker ones to the strongest one there was. The result may not be very pretty, not to mention misshapen, but at least it's incredibly deadly.

Standard model: Rare
After the end of World War II, a weapon was added to the US arsenals that was sorely missed in World War II. The grenade launcher closed the gap between the ranges of hand grenades and mortars. The M 79 looks like a big, one barreled break open shotgun and basically is one. The only disadvantage is having only one shot at a time.

The Multiple Grenade Launcher is the logical advancement of the M 79.
Instead of loading only one grenade and looking like a one barreled shotgun under a magnifying glass, the MF-GL 15 has a six shot revolving drum magazine.
