Basic information

This is the best craftable pistol in the game for its high damage combined with use of the .223 amunition and its long range. It does have drawbacks in requiring an extra AP per shot and having a 5 round magazine. Obtaining this weapon can be done either by crafting it, which requires just 3 HQ metal parts, or trading with merchants (It is most common in san fransisco). Another way it can be obtained is by killing mercenaries encounter near san fransisco.

Tactics

Any mid range gunslinger build will be happy wielding this as 4 shots can be fired in a single round which will damage most armors. In point blank range it is suprassed by an smg burst, so its optimum range is beetween 20 and 30 hexes.

Advantages

Low cost for tier 3 weapon, Easy to craft, Penetrates most armor, Good range

Disadvantages

5 clip magazine, Extra AP to use
