What it's good for
It is a quiet, light backup for early stealth. Handling is good, but damage is modest. Swap to a stronger sidearm or one of its uniques once you can.

You start with it in The Lucky One. Pick up The Autocrat at Fort Quito. Beat Riel Claudia's insurgency for Sweet Tooth. The Ripener is another version with slightly higher damage.
Mods and ammo
It takes standard, armor-piercing, soft-target, poison, blast and incendiary rounds. It holds 8 rounds, or 10 with an extended magazine.
