9mm Pistol (Fallout: New Vegas)

The M&A 9mm pistol is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The M&A 9mm pistol is one of the most common guns to be found early on in the game. It is very cheap to buy, utilizes very common ammunition, has no guns skill requirement, and has a very low Strength requirement in order to be handled effectively. It has three-dot luminescent front and rear iron-sights for better low-light fighting, and a minor idle sway.

It can be modified with a short range scope and an extended magazine to further improve its performance. Furthermore, it is considered an improved holdout weapon, and can therefore be concealed with a Sneak skill of 50 or greater.

Durability
The 9mm pistol can fire about 745 standard rounds, the equivalent of 58 reloads, or 38 reloads when modded with extended magazines, from full condition before breaking.

Modifications

 * 9mm pistol extended mags - +7 rounds per magazine.
 * 9mm pistol scope - adds a 2x20mm short range scope with 1.6x magnification.

Variants

 * Maria, a unique version of the 9mm pistol used by Benny.
 * Dean's 9mm pistol, a unique non-playable 9mm pistol used by Dean Domino. It only differs from the standard pistol in its use of companion ammunition. There are also five other versions that have an increased linear scale of damage.

 * Freeside - on top of an ammunition box on the second level of the ruined building opposite of Mick & Ralph's.

 * Primm - inside Bison Steve Hotel on a shelf of an open cabinet, and on almost all of the convicts inside.

Behind the scenes
The M&A 9mm pistol model is based on the real-world Browning Hi-Power pistol.

Bugs

 * Sometimes when aiming through the 9mm pistol scope in first person, it will show the scope crosshairs, but oddly will have the pistol model in front of the crosshairs, as if aiming down the iron sights. It does not affect firing, but makes it difficult to aim.
 * If loading a saved game from the main menu in which the 9mm pistol is equipped and drawn, the reload animation takes twice as long as normal. This can be solved by simply switching to another gun and then back again.
