| “ | A custom revolver firing rounds so large it only holds 4 shots. More or less nothing can stand before a direct hit from one of these 26mm monstrosities. |
| — Item Description |
The "Bulldog" Heavy Revolver is the Gunner's default sidearm. The Bulldog is large-caliber revolver featuring a massive recoil counterweight underneath the barrel, firing potent 26mm (translating to 1.02 caliber) rounds and has a four shot capacity. It is known for its distinctive firing sound. The Revolver deals high damage and has a high stun chance.
Interestingly, the Bulldog uses an archaic method of reloading that was common with early blackpowder revolvers. Instead of using moonclips or exchanging rounds one by one, the entire cylinder can be ejected and a fresh one can be swapped in through the top-break action.

Volatile Bullets
 |
|
"Fuel on the fire! These rounds are extremely effective against burning targets but at the cost of direct damage dealt to unaffected creatures." |
| ||||||||
Six Shooter
 |
|
"An updated casing profile lets you squeeze 2 more rounds into the cylinder and take a few more rounds with you, but all that filling and drilling has compromised the accuracy of the weapon and it takes longer to reload." |
| ||||||||
Elephant Rounds
  |
|
"Heavy tweaking has made it possible to use modified autocannon rounds in the revolver! The damage is crazy but so is the recoil and you can't carry as many rounds. Also, only 3 rounds fit in the gun and reload time is a bit slower but base accuracy is improved." |
| ||||||||
| Magic Bullets
|
|
"Smaller, bouncy bullets ricochet off hard surfaces, hitting nearby enemies like magic! Overall, the damage of the weapon is reduced, but you can carry a few more rounds due to their compact size." |
