Heavy Pistol

A Heavy Pistol is a robust, one-handed ballistic sidearm built around greater mass and markedly higher stopping power. Its weight gives it a deliberate, solid feel in the hand, improving stability while making it slower to draw and more demanding to wield than lighter models. When fired, it delivers substantially greater force, making it far more likely to incapacitate or seriously injure a target in a single shot. In practice, it is favoured by those who are willing to trade speed and subtlety for raw authority and decisive impact.


“Yeah, yeah — ‘science-shmience,’ heard it a thousand times from eggheads who’ve never bled in a hallway,” the merc laughed, rolling both Heavy Pistols in lazy circles. “Maybe I’m less accurate, maybe I’m ‘tactically suboptimal,’ but there is nothing better than a man with two guns, and when the room lights up like a nightclub, that’s way deadlier than your clean little math.”
