Locations

  • It is held by Little Buster, a soon-to-be-retired bounty hunter, in Camp McCarran. He can typically be found sparring with a practice dummy in between a truck and the camp's tents.
  • If you completed the quest Three-Card Bounty for Major Dhatri, Little Buster will leave the camp and go to Freeside, via the north gate. After one or two in-game days, you will find his corpse near the entrance's railroad tracks. The weapon can be looted from his corpse.

Notes

  • As of patch 1.3.0.452, the weapon no longer ignores damage threshold.
  • It is possible to obtain two copies of this weapon by pickpocketing it from Little Buster while is he alive, then looting it from his corpse later.
  • The name of this weapon is a reference to the canned food Cram, a healing item also found in-game.
