The syringer is a non-automatic rifle in Fallout 76.

Characteristics[]

The syringer is a pipe weapon that uses air pressure to propel custom-made syringes at a target. Most mods for the syringer can be learned by scrapping, while the karma barrel can only be crafted after completing the quest Flavors of Mayhem.
