WEAPON BRIEF:
Reports show that one shot from this particular handgun can kill almost any infected it hits, and any that survive are unlikely to withstand the relatively fast subsequent shot(s). This can be exploited by shooting enemies in the back, procuring critical hits and doubling the inflicted damage. A side effect of this method is the quick depletion of its small magazine, though this can be mitigated by a executing a reload when appropriate. Other semi-automatic pistols are more accurate in the field, so giving this to an operator with a high proficiency in ranged weaponry is recommended.
