Single-action revolver


 This Colt single-action revolver, originally designed for the US military centuries before the bombs fell, is a common sight in the Mojave Wasteland and Appalachia. As the name implies, it uses a single-action mechanism, requiring the wielder to manually cock the hammer before each shot. Examples found in the Mojave are typically chambered in .357 magnum, while those found in Appalachia are typically chambered in .44 Magnum.

Scoped .44 Magnum


The scoped .44 Magnum is a very high-powered pistol. It has a very long effective range, which is further extended by the scope, but also has a low rate of fire for a double-action revolver.

.44 Magnum


The .44 Magnum revolver is a double action, swing-out cylinder revolver. Additionally, the .44 Magnum reloads faster, due to its speed-loader. It has glowing tritium sights. The .44 Magnum revolver is a very durable weapon that can also be concealed.

.44 Pistol


The .44 pistol (despite its name) is a double-action revolver, though users will cock the hammer after each shot similarly to a single-action. The .44 pistol can be modified anyway the user wants it. Additionally, the .44 pistol reloads faster, due to each round being loaded at once with a moon clip.

Casull revolver


This pistol has slightly higher damage compared to the Colt .45 found earlier, and wipes the floor with all of the 9mm handguns. It has a lower ammunition capacity and a lower range than the .45, but most targets won't take more than 6 shots at close range to drop.

Colt 6520 10mm


The Colt 6520 10mm autoloading pistol is a highly durable and efficient weapon developed by Colt Firearms prior to the Great War. It proved to be resistant to the desert-like conditions of the post-nuclear wasteland and is a fine example of workmanship and quality construction (at least for the pre-War models, which became more scarce over time). The simple design of the gun allows it to be easily manufactured with relatively basic equipment, making it possible to be replicated in workshops in the post-nuclear world. The Colt 6520's durability, reliability and simple design makes it very popular among wasteland denizens, for whom sophisticated high maintenance weapons would be a liability to survival.

Hunting revolver


The hunting revolver is a large, double-action revolver that fires .45-70 Gov't ammunition. It does significantly more damage in comparison to the .44 magnum revolver and comes with a scope as standard, versus requiring a modification as with the .44 magnum. The hunting revolver scope also offers more powerful magnification at 2.46x, compared to the 1.86x magnification for the .44 magnum scope.

Pipe revolver pistol


Like other pipe weapons, pipe revolvers are crude, makeshift weapons manufactured by resourceful smiths from before the Great War in gangland Detroit. The pipe revolver has found continued use more than 200 years in areas such as the Commonwealth due to ease of crafting from abundant rusted piping and scrap metal. While the pipe revolver is easy to make, wielding one is not the case. The pipe revolver is single-action weapon and requires the hammer to be pulled back before each shot, and recoil from each shot is near unwieldy due to the lightness of the revolver from the rounds it fires (which vary from .38 to larger calibers such as .308). However, reloading is fast as the use of a moon clip enables the user to reload within seconds.

Police pistol


The police pistol is a double-action .357 revolver with a swing-out cylinder similar to that of a .44 magnum revolver instead of a loading gate like the .357 Magnum revolver. Though it is a double-action, it is fired by the Courier in single-action form with the hammer being cocked back after each shot to increase accuracy. In comparison to the .357 magnum, it features a shorter barrel and a worn matte black finish. It also lacks rear sights and has a shorter hammer with a flat, textured spur.

Ranger Sequoia


This large, double-action revolver is a rare scopeless variant of the hunting revolver, and is used exclusively by the New California Republic Rangers. It is carried only by veteran rangers after 20 years of service. The weapon has a dark finish and has intricate gold engravings all along the main action itself as well as a golden hammer, trigger and sights. The barrel is engraved with the phrases, "For Honorable Service" on the right and "Against All Tyrants" on the left. The red wooden grip is inlaid with the standing bear and star, the insignia of the Rangers, and has a brass plate attached to the bottom which reads "20 Years."

Western revolver


A double-action revolver chambered in .44 caliber used in Nuka-World's Dry Rock Gulch theme park attraction. Nickel plated and with a pale, worn wood grip for authenticity, the revolver was used to allow park guests to duel against One-Eyed Ike. Despite being handed to park guests for participating in park attractions, the western revolver is a serious weapon, outclassing the more commonplace .44 pistol. Reloading is also similar to the .44 pistol, with the cylinder swinging out to eject all spent rounds and a moon clip being used quickly reload the cylinder fully.
