Farm sand hawk

Hi ! I would like to have help to farm the sand hawk without having to remain my ultimate hunter every time. when I finish the quest in order to have the sand hawk before recovering it I make a save and I quit then I recover the weapon. then I do an alt + f4 to have a sand hawk of my choice but it saves automatically so I cannot farm the reward. can you help me ?

Other than using Gibbed save editor.
There is no painless way to farm for specific Sandhawk that you want.

This is what you want to do , readonly will prevent the game from auto saving , so you can save and reload and keep checking the reward until you get what you want , just remember TURN OFF readonly once you find what you want.

If you dont want to reload and don't want to use gibbed you could instead download a character mule save , the character will come with a bunch of guns usually a bunch of sandhawk element variety and best items.

With regard to Read-Only farming ... what you CAN do is flag the .sav file as Read-Only, but leave the Profile.bin file as Read-Write.

So, if you find a Sand Hawk you like ... you can collect it, take it to Claptrap's Stash and stick it in there, and then keep "farming" Captain Scarlett for additional ones.

Claptrap's Stash is stored in the Profile.bin file, so ... that option is open.

When I have to turn the quest in I make sure I go up the elevator, then I run up to Scarlet to turn it in. If I don't get the one that I want then I Alt + F4 and the next time you start, it should put you right in front of Scarlett. Remember, don't take the gun if it's not the one you want.

Aside from methods already named here, gibbeds savegame editor is excellent and there are loads of compilations of item codes across all uniques, legendaries, etc.
If that's not your thing, have a look at the community rebalance patch, if nothing else it gives you the option to have certain quest mobs with special drops respawn like regular mobs (like the Pirate in Oasis who can drop the Stinkpot unique Jakobs AR) and adds most quest rewards to the drop list of some named mob or another. For the Sand Hawk, you'd have to hunt "Benny the Booster" who resides in some camp in Oasis, after his quest has been done, he simply respawns.

Do I have to have the community patch to farm benny the booster? and if so could someone give me a link to a tutorial because there is everything on the internet and I don't really know where to go

a big thank you guys for all your messages the game is almost 10 years old and you are still as active as ever, love

Sorry for my English Im baguette
