Fallout: New Vegas Walkthrough -> Pistols (Part 2)
10mm Pistol - Its appearance resembles the pistol from Fallout 3. A laser sight, a silencer, and an extended magazine can be added to the pistol. If you have a Stealth rating of 50 or higher, it can be carried into a casino without any problem. And with a silencer attached, it can completely replace a .22 pistol.
Facts: The 10mm N99 pistol was adopted as the standard issue military pistol after the N80 was retired in 2051. The N99 is renowned for its ability to withstand any weather and environmental conditions, remaining functional after extensive testing.

The .44 Magnum is a double-action revolver. It's more powerful than the .357 Magnum, but its ammunition is harder to find. The power requirement is also higher—5.
Requirements: Weapon: 50 Strength: 5. ID: 0008f215
The Mysterious Magnum is a unique .44 magnum that makes a distinctive Western-style sound when you holster it. Silver engravings adorn the barrel and cylinder, and the revolver's grip is crafted from ivory.
Trivia: The Mysterious Magnum is a replica of the Mysterious Stranger's revolver from previous games (a hint that the Stranger from previous games may very well be the Drifter's father).
Requirements: Weapon: 50 Strength: 4. ID: 00127c6c
Hunting Revolver - This large double-action revolver is chambered for .45-70 caliber ammunition. It's well-suited for shooting at unarmored targets. However, facing armored opponents can pose problems: firstly, armor-piercing rounds for this revolver are quite rare, and secondly, hitting an enemy in the head with this pistol at long range is quite difficult unless you're lucky and shooting from a concealed position.
Requirements: Weapon: 75 Strength: 6. ID: 0008f214
Ranger's Sequoia - Only elite rangers are authorized to carry this massive revolver. The engraving on the barrel reads "For Honorable Service" on one side and "Defiance of Tyranny" on the other. This revolver is a unique embodiment of a hunting revolver, modeled after the Magnum Research BFR, a real-life model.
Requirements: Weapon: 75 Strength: 6. ID: 00129a44
The 12.7mm pistol is an excellent semi-automatic pistol designed for medium- and long-range combat, as well as precision shooting. It uses the rare 12.7mm (.50 caliber) cartridge.
Requirements: Weapon: 75 Strength: 7. ID: 0008f213
