Description: The Elephant Gun is a unique Jakobs sniper rifle from the third campaign DLC for Borderlands 2- Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt. It has a very high damage on the weapon card, but is a very slow fire rate sniper, with a low mag size, and an awful reload speed. Without the community patch, it is a terrible weapon and one that was absolutely disappointing to find and use. Obviously it looks cool- and I like the idea, but it was just performed so poorly. The community patch adds a significant amount more damage, which at least allows it to do the most damage on a traditional critical hit shot. The newest version of the community patch gives the weapon the Jakobs barrel. This allows the weapon to actually have a decent sight picture, which I think helps the weapon tremendously. The newest version of the patch seems to have mitigated the recoil and accuracy recovery problems a little bit as well, again easing the use of the weapon. It also added a little bit more damage still, which is always welcome. It's awesome to see over 3 million on the card. It no longer sucks, which is awesome. It is still not great with Critical Ascension, given its fire rate. With this in mind, it's probably best to use this weapon for deception shots only if you're going to actively carry it in your load out.
