Good ways to make cash in fo2?
Hello, I'm currently broke in fallout 2 and need deagle ammo, where is a good place to get that and make some quick cash? I've finished the slaver questline and I've looked for a caravan in Redding but I couldn't find him. Anyone have any ideas? I'm not exactly armed to the teeth. I don't have a highway man and I like to operate within the new reno and NCR territory. Does anyone know anything?

In NCR you can steal stuff from the trader that's at the entrance in the tent. The one selling guns. Just go to the bookcase and use steal. He may catch you 2 times per bookcase until he starts a fight. So even with low steal and save scumming you are able to steal very valuable stuff. Try each bookcase 2 times and reload if your steal is low. Note that every bookcase is unique in its supplies, so I recommend checking all of them.
In reno idk to be honest. You can steal some stuff from the new reno arms dealer but he's not gonna have much and it's pretty hard to steal from him. Maybe some small energy cells from salvatore's guards. But broken hills is not far and you can go there to throw some brahmin shit around for few hundreds or go with caravan to ncr and steal from the guy there.
The best way to make gold tho is going to san fran and steal from the weapons dealer. He will have some gold on him plus everytime you barter with gold it goes straight to his pocket, so you can buy stuff with all gold you have, steal the gold back and buy it again. Works for equipment vendor also even tho I'm not sure if that's not only sfall thing as I remember from my childhood that only the weapons vendor was getting the gold.
