Trail carbine

The trail carbine is a weapon .
==Characteristics==
A lever-action rifle chambered for .44 Magnum rounds. It deals decent damage per shot, has a decent rate of fire and so a decent damage-per-second (DPS) value, deals decent critical hit damage, and costs a high amount of AP. It has very low spread, a magazine size of 8, a decently low weight of 5.5, has decent durability of 500, and has a moderately expensive caps value of 3900.
The weapon's tubular magazine is reloaded by hand one round at a time, allowing for it to be interrupted mid-reload and fired if needed.
===Durability===
The trail carbine can fire a total of about 2495 standard rounds, the equivalent of 312 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
===Modifications===
* Trail carbine scope - Adds a medium-range, 2.6x-magnification scope.
* Trail carbine steel forged receiver 
* Trail carbine custom stock 
==Locations==
* Bonnie Springs - a specific Viper leader will always spawn with a single carbine and a suit of reinforced metal armor. Only one can be obtained, though, as a swarm of cazadores will take over once the Vipers are killed.
* Gun Runners - can be bought from the Vendortron after level 11.
* Carried by most NCR Rangers.
* Miguel's Pawn Shop - can be acquired from Keller, during the Dealing with Contreras unmarked quest.
* NCR Ranger safehouse - on the shelving to the right of the reloading bench.
* Novac - in Ranger Andy's bungalow. Found in an average locked gun case on a shelf above the bed. Must be stolen.
* Red Rock Canyon - can be acquired from various Great Khans.
* The Thorn - two of the guards carry them and respawn after 3 game days. 
* Sometimes carried by NCR Veteran Rangers.
* Can be found in Brewer's beer bootlegging in the basement in a hard locked gun cabinet.
* It is sometimes carried by legionary assassins (level 15+).
* One is carried by Ranger Stevens.
* Sometimes sold at the Great Khan armory.
* Sometimes carried by White Legs tribals in Zion Canyon at higher levels.
* Found in the Zion Ranger station in Zion Canyon, in a footlocker behind a sofa in the corner of the room to the right as one enters.
* Sometimes carried by lobotomites in Big MT at higher levels.
==Notes==
The trail carbine can be considered a good weapon to use until the brush gun becomes available due to their similar mechanics, it having lower Guns and Strength requirements, and also being affected by the Cowboy perk.
==Bugs==
* When changing ammunition for the trail carbine the reload animation may loop and continuously reload. This can be remedied by just changing the ammunition type again. This glitch can also occur with any weapon with long reloading sequences, like the cowboy repeater and the brush gun. 
* If ammunition types are changed quickly, the gun will load in one bullet then be fully loaded. 
* If using the glitch above without the 8 rounds of that ammo type required to fully load the gun, it will keep loading one round at a time until it is interrupted. 
* Changing ammunition types quickly will cause lever and the receiver to be out half-cocked in the 3rd person view. 
* When using the regular iron sights on this weapon, the bullet travels slightly above the front sight. To compensate, the player should aim slightly below the target, or turn off true iron sights. 
* The reload animation of lever action weapons doesn't have a corresponding jam animation, so the weapon will not jam, even at near-broken conditions.
