The Oldest Guns In Fallout (1997-2018)
The Fallout games have always had a variety of fun and interesting weapons to discover. Let's take a look at all of the usable pre-1900 weapons that are featured in the Fallout games!

== ADDITIONAL NOTES ==
**brace yourself as there's a lot to unpack here.
Pre-1900 weapons will only be included, otherwise we'd be here all day with all the WWII games in the franchise.
The primary focus is on weapons that can be used by the player. Weapons that cannot be used by the player will not be included.
In this video, a weapon's age is measured by its initial production year (i.e. Winchester Model 1887 was produced in 1887, etc.). Some approximations may be included with dates of manufacture.
Articles of weaponry with limited documentation may be excluded as a last resort.
The dates in the title are only tied to the games covered in this video (the earliest being 1997 and the latest being 2018). This is due to the fact that not every Fallout game was included in this video as not all of them have any pre-1900 weapons that can be used by the player.
I will only include a weapon in this video if the depicted in-game weapon itself was manufactured pre-1900 (so it's not an later version of it), OR if said weapon depicts a pre-1900 weapon. For instance, the Mosin-Nagant 1891/30 wouldn't be included as this variant was producted from 1930 to 1945, whereas depictions of the original Mosin-Nagant 1891 (officially known as "3-line rifle M1891") would count as it's a pre-1900 weapon.
There is no guarantee that every single pre-1900 weapon (even those usable by the player) will be included in this video, though I am very confident that all of them have been included. I've checked the sources below numerous times. Any corrections, if needed, may either be included here in the description or placed in a pinned comment.
Some legendary weapon variants may be shown in cases where gameplay of regular weapon variants could not be found.
If gameplay cannot be found of a certain weapon, a screen capture of the weapon may be shown instead.
If a weapon is featured in the same state across multiple games, then it would not be included in this video multiple times.
All Smith & Wesson Model 2 variants shown here are double action (prod. 1880), not single action (prod. ~1861 to ~1876).
All screen captures from the Fallout Wiki were taken by myself (Jacob_MP).
