| “ | This might look like an ordinary revolver, until you realize that it helps a talking dog solve crimes. How many crimes has YOUR dog solved lately? And let's face it, his revolver kind of sucks too. Man, we want to talk about this gun more, but we can't get over how much your dog sucks.
— Big Kill publicity blurb

The Big Kill is a promotional secondary weapon for the Spy. It is based on the oversized .44 revolver used by Sam from the Sam & Max franchise.
