The Tranquilizer Gun is a weapon in the Classic Team Fortress games that is used by the Spy. In Quake Team Fortress it appears identical to the Single-Barrel Shotgun. In Team Fortress Classic it takes on the appearance of a silenced pistol. However, it functions in a vastly different manner to either of these weapons.
Primarily a tactical weapon, the Tranquilizer Gun fires a dart that reduces the target's running and mouse turning speed by about half. This effect can be used to greatly reduce the efficiency of fast classes such as the Scout and Medic, or to allow the Spy to escape from other classes by slowing them down.
The weapon is hampered by its slow rate of fire, limited reserve ammo, and slow projectile speed. Its damage is only equivalent to that of a standard melee attack.
