R8 Revolver | Reboot (Field-Tested)

The R8 Revolver delivers a highly accurate and powerful round at the expense of a lengthy trigger-pull. Firing rapidly by fanning the hammer may be the best option when point-blank stopping power is required. It has been decorated with red accents over silver and black panels. "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
