These Slugthrower Revolving Pistols are Benjamin Cassidy’s signature side-arms that carry a reputation along with them; dubbed the “Peace-Makers” by Benjamin himself, the locals of his home-world (Drogheda) believed that wherever these pistols went, trouble often followed. Benjamin often preferring to boast about the apparent curse, instead proclaiming that he, himself was the real trouble the people needed to be concerned about.
The two Slug-throwers are set apart in their exterior casing, however that’s where their differences end. Both Revolvers come with the same attachments and variety/type of ammunition. They’re made of a high caliber and rarely fail to put down their targets when landing a well rounded shot to the torso or higher. Unfortunately, being of a high caliber also means that the kick-back from each shot fired produces significant recoil and therefore the rate of fire for these revolvers are much slower when dual-wielding them. On the other hand, when only using one of these side-arms, the rate of fire can increase due to the shooter’s free hand being focused upon the hammer for quicker preparation between each shot (Hip firing, often resulting in less accuracy).
The variety of ammunition as mentioned above is significant, Benjamin’s all-time favorites being the buckshot which tends to be something of a crowd pleaser. That said, it’s always helpful to come packing the type of ammunition that can pierce a majority of dense alloys such as armor, or blow your foes head into multiple pieces for those more artistic of shooters. When not looking to paint the walls however, there are of course your standard slugs, as well as incendiaries for those who just want to watch the world burn.
