I've played through the game almost twice. I just passed the part where you Spoiler rescue the dark one from the train. Does anyone know if the weapon spawns anywhere in the stores or surfaces other than the Spoiler final level . It's by far my favorite weapon in the both 2033 and last light.
The Red soldiers in the Depot stage (with all the machinery and old Metro cars) usually carry either a VSK or Saiga, with a smattering of AK-74s and revolvers. The weird thing is that when "looking" at the weapon, the icon for the VSK looks *a lot* like a modified Lolife. You might have passed over it without realizing it.
.....really? There's two on the Bridge level that I know of; one is nearly impossible to miss on an ice floe after you fall from the train, and one on a small path that goes right under the beginning of the actual bridge. Spoiler Then, after you meet the Rangers, almost every Red soldier you see has one.
