For an overview of .44 revolver models, see .44 Magnum revolver. |
The .44 pistol is a weapon appearing in Fallout 4.
Characteristics[]
The .44 pistol is a double-action revolver, chambered in the .44 Magnum cartridge, with a blued finish and wooden grips. It doesn't have as many customization options as most pistol frames, but these firearms boast considerable ballistic damage. The cylinder is loaded with rounds held together by a moon clip.
These pistols are relatively common, and they can be found or purchased throughout the Commonwealth. Aiming down sights is ill-advised for close encounters due to the strong recoil, and with the proper mods it can be made quite accurate for firing from the hip.
The Fallout 4 add-on Nuka-World adds an additional barrel type to this weapon's available modifications.

Notes[]
- Despite the standard barrel being considered the "standard" barrel for the weapon, the .44 pistol is more frequently found with the snubnose barrel. This anomaly is shared with the Deliverer and 10mm pistol.
- The weapon is used by the Mysterious Stranger in Fallout 4.
- The gun's hammer is missing a firing pin. This also applies to the Western revolver.
- Although this weapon uses the same reloading animation as the pipe revolver in first person view, it appears visually different in third person.
- There is a cut alternative way of firing the .44 that involves the player "fanning the hammer,” which drastically increases its fire rate. However, only first person animations were present for this. Using a glitch to apply an automatic receiver will allow the player to use this animation in vanilla.
- The variant used by the Disciples is in fact an entirely different item, which will not stack with the regular .44 in containers, even when stripped of all modifications. However, loose mods from the Disciples variant can be used on the regular variant. Another difference is this veriant cannot be painted.
