Can Companions Use Different Weapons in Fallout 4?
Absolutely! Your companions in Fallout 4 can indeed use different weapons. All you gotta do is trade with them and give them the weapon you want them to use. Don't forget to hand them some ammo too, because they'll need it to actually fire the weapon. One bullet is enough though if it uses ammo, because they don't actually consume the ammo; it's like magic!

Hot take: just let them use their default weapons. Managing ammo for companions feels like babysitting. Fallout 4 is about freedom, not micromanaging your squad's inventory!
Yes, they can, but remember: companions have feelings about weapons too! Ok, not really, but each companion does have a default weapon that comes with unlimited ammo. However, if you give them a new weapon, you'll need to make sure they have ammo for it, otherwise, it's back to the old trusty invisible ammo supply of their default.
