.32 Pistol (Fallout 3)

The Smith & Wesson .32 Pistol is a small guns pistol in Fallout 3.

As the name would imply, this handgun uses .32 Caliber Round ammunition. It is commonly found to be in use by Capital Wasteland Raiders. Although it is a light weapon, it pales against the 10mm pistol in terms of rate of fire and damage, and might be considered a waste of ammunition. It can, however, be fired quite fast if the player can get a rhythm down.

It is almost certainly based on the "pocket revolvers" of the early 1900's - they were almost all top-break and the most common caliber was one of the many .32 cartridges made at the time, all equally anemic.
