This article is about the Medic's stock primary weapon. For other syringe guns, see Syringe Gun (disambiguation).

“

Ooh hoo hoo, your gun shoots medicine! It's intimidatin'. Click to listen — The Scout's last words.

”

The Syringe Gun is the default primary weapon for the Medic. It is a custom-built stylized gun that uses air pressure to fire syringes from a transparent cylindrical case.

The weapon fires syringes at a rate of ten per second, with a velocity of 990 Hammer units. The syringes are subject to gravity as they travel, making it necessary to lead moving targets and aim upward to compensate for distance. The Syringe Gun is reasonably accurate when the trajectory is taken into account, but the extremely slow speed of the projectiles makes it ineffective outside of close range. Unlike most other projectiles, syringes cannot be reflected.

Update history

December 20, 2007 Patch

• Fixed occasional misreporting of Syringe Gun damage distances to the stats system.

December 31, 2007 Patch

• Fixed Syringe Gun projectiles sometimes pushing players high up into the air, allowing them to reach bad map locations.

August 18, 2011 Patch

• [Undocumented] Added Strange quality.

March 1, 2012 Patch

• Refined Syringe Gun crit recoil forces.

July 20, 2012 Patch

• [Undocumented] Updated the Syringe Gun model.

June 18, 2014 Patch (Love & War Update)

• Converted the Syringe Gun models to use the c_models system.

Unused content

• In their initial testing of the Gold Rush Update, Valve added 3 items to the game's files. These were later removed as part of the Mann-Conomy Update. The secondary and melee weapons use the Kritzkrieg and Ubersaw images respectively, but with the names and stats of the standard weapons. However, the Syringe Gun image was that of the standard weapon with a different angle.

Bugs

• The syringes in the client view can disappear if they (visually) hit an object such as a barrel or crate. This happens when the barrel of the player's viewmodel (usually on lower viewmodel FOVs or with minimized viewmodels turned on) is visually blocked by an object. This only affects the client-side syringe models and they still hurt enemies.

Trivia

• In the weapon script file for the Syringe Gun, it uses the name "SuperSMG."
