Repairing M16 from guerrilla base...??

[Hydrogen]

is there a way to repair the 100% wear m16 that you can find in the guerrilla base at the begging of the game? i've tried to talk to the gun merchant but there was no option to repair it when right clicking on the gun in my inventory.. I also tried using the toolbox to disassemble it but it told me that it was to damaged for field repairs.

The Guerrilla Camp merchant does work, but I think it requires either a certain approval rating or a certain rank with the guerrillas. I'm unsure of the exact approval needed, but your conversation option should turn into "I want access to your full arsenal" or somesuch.

On the other hand, once you have access to Santa Maria, the illegal trader there will fix your guns without qualifications. Since you won't actually find any clips for that M16 since much later, this is probably the better way to go.

A slightly cheaty option 3 is to turn off the 'Items sold to vendors disappear' option. Then sell the M16 to anyone, and it'll show up fully fixed, with a clip inserted, and would have lost its Shabby/Worn/Used qualifier. How much this costs depends on whether you have Easy Money turned on or off.

You need 100 standing in the camp, and he will repair anything.
Its really easy to do, especialy if you got a car.
Just kill around 30 bandits and give away that guns to guerillas for free.
Actually i have hundreds of hours in this game (not only steam) but didnt know that there is a M16 :)

Btw to restore it, its cost me around 2700 eldo. Really good deal, cuz its good rifle, even tho im have only Soviets guns only :)
