Handguns | .44 Revolver

Post by caledonianblues »

.44 Revolver
Single action revolver taking .44 rem mag cartridges. Crafted out of stainless steel, this awesome weapon features a triple locking cylinder and single spring mechanism, offering a lighter trigger pull. A big handgun for big game. The speed of this weapon makes it an excellent life saver in hostile situations.

No reservations when it comes to the performance, but the look, sound and iron sights fall short when compared to its Custom made peer.

Rated "Good"

Everage- Before they nerfed it i would have voted good... it used to drop everything whitin 60m or more with ease!
... now... wouldn't risk shooting at anything over 30m.

A good side-arm. It´s only a matter of taste if you favor this version or the custom one.

If you want to see them ingame before buying them, i compared them in a video:

@ saldas : it clear that it's a short range weapon . if you see no interest in approaching and shooting from close , then there's no point in such purchase . but if you shoot from close it's very fun believe me , with nice animation and nice sound . my second favorite weapon after the snakebite . excellent hunting revolver

Rated poor.

First the pros:
It's a good weapon for smaller animals you shoot usually at close range: Coyote and roe.
It has enough wounding power to kill a WT, BT, Sitka or MD with a body shot.

The Contra:
Almost no penetration at all. The weapon still kinda works for elk and red deer with very good shot placement but you must be very carefull if you end up with a body shot the animal will not die.
For feral hogs and wild boars I think this weapon shouldn't be ethical. Even at ten meters many shots will register as body shot because of lack of penetration. For an incoming hog you pretty much have to aim between the eyes and get a brainshot. Very poor weapon for hogs.
