[edit] Basic information

This is a very good craftable pistol. It has high damage combined with use of the 14mm AP ammunition which makes it one of the best pistols versus all armors. It does have drawbacks in the range department, and has only a 6 round magazine. This weapon can be obtained by either by crafting it or trading with merchants (It is sold at quite a low cost). Another way it can be obtained is by killing raiders in encounters near Broken Hills.

[edit] Tactics

Any mid range gunslinger build will be happy wielding this as it does more damage due to the Penetrate weapon perk. At point blank range it is surpassed by an smg burst, so its optimum range is between 20 and 30 hexes vs heavily armored opponents. It is best used as a sidearm while hunting with a submachine gun, in case of unexpected visitors.

[edit] Advantages

• Penetrate weapon perk which reduces your target's Damage Threshold to 1/3 of its nominal value.
• Low cost for its power
• Penetrates all armor

[edit] Disadvantages

• 6 round magazine
• 14mm AP ammunition can be difficult to find

[edit] Obtaining

• Raiders (Khan) encounters
