5.56mm Pistol (GRA)

The 5.56mm pistol is a weapon added with the Fallout: New Vegas add-on, Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Characteristics
The 5.56mm pistol is the base variant of That Gun. When compared to That Gun, it is cleaner, has a black finish rather than a grey one, has two small red LEDs on the side, and a large pale green LED on the back.

Unlike That Gun, the 5.56mm pistol is considered an improved holdout weapon, and thus can only be concealed in casinos with a Sneak skill of 50 or higher.

Along with its unique variant, it is the only pistol in the game that loads armor piercing ammunition that doesn't require the Hand Loader perk to fabricate, setting aside the weak +P 9mm and .45 auto ammo at -2 DT.

Durability
The 5.56mm pistol can fire a total of about 870 standard rounds, or 174 reloads, from full condition before breaking.

Variants

 * That Gun, the unique version of the 5.56mm pistol found in the base game.

Locations

 * Mojave Outpost, sold by Lacey.
 * Novac, sold by Cliff Briscoe.
 * Gun Runners, sold by Vendortron.
 * 188 trading post, sold by the arms merchant and Alexander.
 * Various merchants around the Mojave Wasteland.

Behind the scenes
Like its unique variant That Gun, the 5.56mm pistol is modeled on the pistol used by Rick Deckard, the main character of the film Blade Runner. This version differs considerably in proportions, and lacks the bolt handle, ejection port, and second trigger.
