Settler Pistol Mode of Operation
This is something I found on the Rage wiki, and I wanted to know if anyone can see any kind of evidence pointing to it. It mentions that the Settler Pistol (apparently not having any form of real "barrel" and thus realistically being woefully inaccurate and underpowered) has a single barrel for each chamber shrouded in what looks like a large bore barrel from the outside. I took a look at the pistol model when replaying the game today, but the muzzle end is basically a flat black disc and I have yet to get any kind of close look at the inside during reloading. Can anyone figure out if this suggestion has some kind of truth? Chitoryu12 (talk) 06:32, 24 January 2013 (EST)
- Nope, reload shows nothing between the front of the cylinder and the end of the barrel, it's basically a flare gun. Usual case of fanboys making dumb excuses without bothering to check if they actually fit the evidence.
