Small Guns

Small Guns are the most common ranged weapons in the Wasteland. They are reliable, easy to maintain, and fed by the ammunition you are most likely to find or trade for.

Pistols

Compact sidearms suited to close and medium range. Pistols are common, practical, and easy to carry every day.

9mm Pistol 9mm Lighter caliber. Easier to feed.
10mm Pipe Pistol 10mm Improvised construction. Less reliable than standard.

Revolvers

Revolvers are slower to reload than pistols, but they hit harder and are valued for their rugged simplicity.

Weapon Caliber Notes
.44 Magnum Revolver .44 Magnum High damage. Heavy stopping power.
10mm Revolver 10mm Common caliber in a revolver frame.

12mm SMG 12mm Heavier round, fewer shots per magazine.
