The Varmint Rifle is a weapon featured in Red Dead Redemption 2 and in Red Dead Online.

Description[]

The quick-firing Lancaster Varmint Rifle is designed for hunting small mammals and large birds, using a special low-caliber type of ammunition with reduced damage. However, the large ammo capacity and fast fire rate make this an effective weapon against large groups of enemies. This gun has an ammo capacity of fourteen rounds, and can only use .22 caliber ammo.

Letter from a customer[]

"We had a family of coons holed up in the barn and confound it if they didn't get into every bit of feed we had stored in there for the winter and fouled it up something fierce. I ordered the Lancaster Varmint Rifle from your outfit for my boy's birthday and one night I set a spell listening for them coons to go a walkin' about. I woke up my boy with a crack of that rifle outside his window and he came a galloping outside in a hurry and we headed out towards the barn. I told him to cut the light and we set there till we saw them beady eyes reflected by the moon. Boy howdy if he didn't have a mess of fun shooting that whole family of coons dead. I remembered my pa used to parboil coon with sweet potatoes. Doggone if we didn't have ourselves a feast that night. I can't thank you enough for recommending this fine rifle. It's a hoot."

Trivia[]

  • The Varmint Rifle is based on the Winchester Model 1890.
  • The weapon is also a pump-action rifle, a very rare configuration for rifles as most pump-action weapons are shotguns.
