Thanks to Borderlands 2, the colour orange has become an object of disturbing reverence round these parts. Simply eating a cheese sandwich or brandishing a carrot (believe it or not, this occasionally happens) is enough to make editors crowd around you in a semi-conscious stupor, sniffing the air like dogs. The other day, some unfortunate PR lady arrived holding a can of Fanta and barely escaped with her life. You think I'm joking? You're a monster. I can still hear her screams.
Orange, of course, is the colour of the game's highly coveted Legendary weapons, second only in the rarity cadence to Pearlescent. If you see orange text on a gun description, do not rest till said gun is in your possession. With that in mind, here's a list of Legendary guns, where you'll find them and who you'll need to speak to or kill. Thanks, Orcz.

Excellent! I need some over-powered guns becuase at the moment I seem to spend most of my time on Borderlands 2 in fight for your life mode!

Are these guaranteed or random % drops? I've killed that midgemong more times than i've plopped recently with the number of new games i've started and i've yet to see an orange weapon drop?
EDIT: Suppose i kind of answer my own question there don't i... I award myself ten moron points. Although if they're % drops that could theoretically mean you could play through the game and never get tango'd - which surely can't be right?

The only orange gun I've got is "Rapider Gub" which I got from Laney White. I got an orange grenade mod from one of the named rats in the tunnels under the Bloodshot Hideout, during the Splinter Group mission.
