Description

''"Simple structure but deadly weapon when used right."''

The '''Zip Gun''' is a ranged weapon / firearm--the first gun made craftable in the game.

It is rather slow compared to other weapons, but adequate against slower enemies like normal-mode Frenzied Giants in Bunker Alfa and larger enemies like Floater Bloaters and Toxic Abominations in resource zones, Bunker Alfa, etc. Zip Guns do 18 dmg at a speed of 0.8, or 14.4 DPS.

The '''Zip Gun''', so long as it has at least one shot of durability remaining, may also be scrapped at the Recycler for a chance to extract Scrap Metal, Aluminium Bar, and Steel Bar after an hour.
