The pistols fires a single bullet every time the attack key is pressed. Like the Colt Anaconda and Schofield .45, they are always dual-wielded. They are fairly weak weapons and have to be reloaded manually, but they have unlimited ammunition.
The pistols can receive several upgrades to increase their damage output, reduce reload speed or for increased rate of fire.
Appearances[]
The pistols are first acquired in Knee Deep in Sand, and then again in Path of Feast / Fear.
As the pistols are quite weak and have a low rate of fire, they are best used as a last resort if the player is low on ammunition.
The pistol upgrades make the weapon more effective against large groups of Gnaars, Orcs or Marsh Hoppers, though it is sometimes best to switch to a more powerful weapon if possible.
