Pistol

The Pistol is, in effect, a handheld cannon. Like the musket, it uses gunpowder to hurl projectiles at its target. With it's shorter barrel, the pistol is more portable and more easily concealed - but has a less effective range.

Game Notes
In Pirates of the Caribbean, the pirate obtains their first single-shot flintlock pistol from Hector Barbossa on Devil's Anvil. Later, they will be able to buy improved ones.

As per the Pirate's Code, it cannot be used against any human NPC's, but can be used against everything else - including undead or fellow pirates in PvP.

Pistols and ammunition are available at any gunsmith.
