P-6 Gunslinger

Exchanges your standard Helldiver sidearm, the P-2 Peacemaker, with a heavy revolver. The aptly nicknamed 'Gunslinger' revolver might seem flashy, but packs a proper punch and comes with a built-in laser sight. Part of the Pistol equipment kit.

Unlock Requirement
The P-6 Gunslinger is a DLC weapon, available at any rank to those who purchase the Pistol equipment kit. Unlike normal weapons, it must be selected from the Perks menu and has no upgrade path.

Weapon Stats

 * Helldivers start with 4 magazines of Gunslinger ammunition, and can carry up to 8. Each magazine contains 6 rounds. If two or less rounds remain in the magazine, the 'low ammo' warning sound will play when the weapon is fired.


 * Reload time is always 2.5 seconds, whether the magazine has been fully emptied or not. The Gunslinger does not allow players to keep a round in the chamber if the reload before emptying the magazine.

Gameplay Tips

 * Sidearms can be used when carrying objectives such as the Black Box, Illuminate Power Core or Artillery shells.
 * Mortally wounded Helldivers can draw their sidearm automatically by using the aiming controls (right analog stick or mouse). Keep in mind that it needs to be manually switched back to the previously selected weapon after dropping whatever the player was carrying or after recovering from mortal wounds.
