Despite concept art depicting an 8-round magazine upgrade, the maximum capacity in game is 7 rounds.Aiming, and continually turning the camera to the right will shift it to it's "correct" position. The revolver is misaligned when aiming down sights, pointed slightly to the left.Pieter Burke owns a custom model with a golden finish given to him by the CEO of Mustang Arms after Burke saved his life during a close-protection mission early in Burke's Belltower career. Its heavy recoil also contributes to its high miss rate, but can be circumvented with the right augmentations.Īmmunition is very rare at the start of the game, but after locating Isaias Sandoval, it becomes vastly more common.

Firing the Diamond Back without aiming will almost always cause the bullet to hit off-target, unless a Laser Aiming Module is attached, after which it becomes greatly more accurate. A single cylinder of reserve ammunition can hold up to 50 rounds while using only two slots of inventory space, far exceeding the same explosive power and storage of grenade launcher ammunition or frag grenades.Ī major drawback to using this weapon is its somewhat low accuracy. Given its availability in the environment or on downed enemies, and its raw power-to-size ratio in the inventory, the revolver is an economical choice for players who prefer combat to stealth in boss fights or enemy encounters. When upgraded with the explosive round modification, it becomes even more powerful, killing all non-boss enemies with 1-2 shots and bosses with 3-7 depending on whether they are a direct hit near a critical area. Un-upgraded, the Diamond Back offers great stopping power and a tremendous bullet damage, capable of dropping heavy troops and bots in a single shot. Prior to speed upgrades, the Diamond Back reloads rather slowly, but once adequately invested in, an entire cylinder can be changed within mere moments. The weapon uses a side break action rather than conventional swing-out cylinder for reloading. The Diamond Back uses telescopic ammunition, in which the projectile is completely enveloped in the case by the propellant. This revolver is rather innovative, using a revolving cylinder magazine and a hybrid cartridge system to combine reloading speed with reliability and accommodate multiple ammo types. 357 magnum revolver made by Mustang Arms Ad-Tech Ltd.
