You can do it with marksman 0/0/3/0. No joke. There are 3 missions to do and since its one of the content badges needed to get your "old man" visit the caves you visit are often wiped clean of enemies. Last time I went I never fired a shot.
The slugthrower is a darn nice looking carbine. A heck of alot better looking than a dxr6. If you get it damage sliced it's not too shabby a damage dealer. My biggest complaint is that this is the only non DoT weapon given as a prize. I mean every other type of rewarded weapon comes as a schematic so that weaponsmiths can reproduce a good number of them. Why so we get left out of the mix?
Maybe we should start a petition to make the Nym's slugthrower a schematic reward? Wouldn't mind getting my hands on a top of the line Krayt enhanced Nym's

I found the Nyms quest extremely easy, I think it was one of the first quests I did, which is quite surprising why such a truly wondrous weapon is just given away like that.
Send me your Nyms Slugthrowers! I want them all! Mwahaha!

I've heard this carbine is a prize for the Nym's Theme Park, andi'm interested to add it to mycarbine arsenal 
I'm Carbineer 2-2-2-2 and CH 2-2-2-3. Can I complete the Theme Park without to ask for some help, or do I need to callmy friends?

Yep, I finished the quest recently. There are only three missions. I started it months ago (the first mission). The first mission you go to a cave and fight your way through several NPCs...the spawn rate is fairly high, so there's usually something to fight. Then, recently (after the glowy path was revealed) I decided to finish it. Onemission there was NOTHING in the cave. Just walk through the dungeon, grap the item, drive back. Another mission had a handful of NPC opponents, but nothing overly challenging for even a novice carbineer. As far as the quality of the weapon <shrug> I'm not a carbineer so I can't use it. The stats look decent I guess (150-250 range I think)...it does acid damage.

103-207 damage
4.0 speed
+0 ideal @ 28m

every slugthrower issued has the exact same stats to start with... now whether they are sliced and how good of a slice is all that matters
