Red Ryder Range Model Air Rifle is a sniper rifle in Wasteland 3.
Description[ | ]
Has a compass in its stock and a mysterious inscription: 'Alwa nasci korliri das.'
Characteristics[ | ]
Damage can be increased from various bonuses. However, it is not recommended to waste high-tier mods on this weapon, due to low damage output. Especially not recommended to use rare and expensive damage type conversion mods. The exception is if you want to create a powerful debuffer sniper - the rifle's innate +20% strike rate allows for creating a 50% strike rate character with either Punk Lovers or Lucia Wesson and their SR bonus. As such, the air rifle will deal low damage, but be able to cause powerfull debuffs every three turns or so.

Trivia[ | ]
- The inscription and weapon itself are a reference to the Martian Paragraphs in Wasteland, with the inscription being translated to "Keep your powder dry" in Martian, and the Warlord remarking to the player character that "I realize this is not as good as having a Red Ryder Range Model Air Rifle with a compass in the stock, but it's the best we can do."
- The Blinded effect is a reference to the 1983 film A Christmas Story, in which the protagonist wishes for a Red Ryder BB gun, but is repeatedly warned that "You'll shoot your eye out."
