The Railgun is a slot 2 weapon for the Engineer in the Team Fortress classic series of games.

The Railgun fires a medium-powered, perfectly accurate projectile every time the fire key is either pressed or held down.
It uses one nail per shot and does not need to be reloaded.
In Quake Team Fortress, the Railgun's projectile can pierce walls.
It deals 23 damage per hit, more than a full Single-Barrel Shotgun blast.

The old 3rd-person Railgun model in Team Fortress Classic uses the Glock 17 model from Half-Life.
