The Crusader Pistol is a non-automatic pistol in Fallout 76, introduced in the Steel Dawn update.

Gameplay

Behind the scenes

• During the first wave of testing on the Public Test Server, the Crusader pistol was known as the Chimera pistol.
• Jonathan Rush paraphrased Joon Choi when indicating the pistol was influenced by the 12.7mm, "with a sprinkling of some more advanced tech to support the different ammo types."
