The paint gun is a miscellaneous item in Fallout 3.

Characteristics[]

Paint guns are a common, semi-valuable junk item. They are used in the construction of the dart gun or used as Rock-It Launcher ammunition.

Locations[]

Paint guns are found throughout the Capital Wasteland. They are reliably found in toolboxes, metal boxes, around workbenches, and in raider camps. They are also sometimes sold by "miscellaneous" vendors like Crazy Wolfgang, Knick Knack, Karl, and Seagrave Holmes. Some guaranteed locations for paint guns:

  • Six in Vault 92: one in the supply shop, the same room with a Tales of Junktown Jerky Vendor. Three are in the living quarters: one in the south area, in a room with a computer terminal, one on a desk two rooms east of there, and one in the room east of the pool table in the center of the map. One is on a shelf in the easternmost room of sound testing, and one is on a desk in the center of the map in the reactor room.
  • Five on shelves, counters, and floor of the west section of the Franklin Metro utility, among many other workbench items.
  • Five in the county sewer mainline. Three are in Gallo's storage closet, along with a large number of other workbench items. Another is in a room east of the Big Book of Science, and one is in a crate in the room where Gallo resides, next to the Nuka-Cola stools.
  • Four in L.O.B. Enterprises: Two in the main area, in the same storeroom containing a Pugilism Illustrated. Two in the archives, one on a shelf just north of the staircase, and one in the room upstairs.
  • Four in Bethesda ruins: One on the front desk of the west office, and one upstairs near the cooler. One on the floor in the sleeping quarters of the east office, next to some overturned filing cabinets. One more is in the utility closet of Bethesda underworks.
  • Three inside the chapel/raider camp in Calverton.
  • Three can be stolen from Warrington station in Roy Phillips' sleeping quarters. Two are on a top shelf and one is on a counter next to four steam gauge assemblies.
  • Two can be found in the back of a truck near the VAPL-84 power station.
  • Two can be found in Kaelyn's Bed & Breakfast, one on the bed frame, and one next to it.
  • One can be found at Chaste Acres Dairy Farm in the grain silo.
  • Point Lookout (add-on) Three can be found in the Turtledove Detention Camp: one on the floor next to a desk in the administration office, one on the floor in bunkhouse B, and one next to the workbench in the cellar.
