Colt Peacemaker

About the Colt Peacemaker

At this writing the Colt .45 Peacemaker is 140 years old. Of all American handguns it is the most famous, most legendary and arguably the most aesthetically pleasing. It may not have been designed by old Sam Colt himself—he had passed away over a decade prior to its introduction, still, it incorporated the graceful lines and especially the grip frame he pioneered with earlier percussion revolvers. The power, accuracy and handling qualities of the Colt Peacemaker made it a popular sidearm from its inception, well into the 20th century. The association with the history of the American West remains to the present century, and these revolvers remain popular with shooters and collectors.

In Fistful of Frags

This extremely popular gun in history is also very popular in Fistful of Frags, but due to it's Red Chest location it isn't used as much as it should be. The best way to describe this gun is to say it's absolutely in the middle. It doesn't have big downsides nor impressive advantages. Maybe the recoil is hard, and recovery from a shot if you want it's 89% accuracy is longer than the Schofield, but damage is quite grand. One shot at close range to the head can kill (Netting +6 Notoriety) and a point blank chest shot will deal 65 damage. Sort of seen as a more powerful, slower reloading (7 seconds) version of the Schofield, the peacemaker can situationally be really good or really bad. For more stats see:
