The entire body of the pistol is engraved with ivy and floral details. It, along with Chance's knife, were responsible for a great amount of Fiend deaths in the pages of the graphic novel.

It is a unique variant of the 9mm pistol, and it is also the gun used by Benny to shoot the Courier in the game's introduction. As a unique weapon, it cannot be modded. It is also a concealable holdout weapon once you are past 50 Sneak.

Locations
This gun is only held by Benny. To get this weapon you can kill him or pickpocket him.

It should be noted that the weapon can not be obtained if the player has Benny crucified, and its not able to be pick-pocketed if you confront Benny in the presidential suite at The Tops; only its ammo will be in his inventory.
