The Gunslinger is an unlockable melee weapon for the Engineer. It is a robotic prosthetic hand which replaces the Engineer's right hand.
The Gunslinger grants the Engineer an additional 25 max health (raising his total health to 150) at the cost of disabling random critical hits with the weapon. However, the player is able to perform a three-part combo attack on enemies: Should the player score 3 hits in succession with the Gunslinger, the third punch (a downward motion with a clenched fist) scores an automatic critical hit. Any missed punch or release of the attack key resets the combo. However, as long as there is no miss and no pause in the attacks, whether all three punches hit the same target, two different targets, or three different targets, the third hit scores a critical hit on whichever enemy player is hit.
Even though it does not get random critical hits, the Gunslinger can be crit boosted by regular means; but being a body location, it does not glow when crit boosted. Like Fists, the fingers only show sparks to indicate the boost.
Using the Gunslinger allows the Engineer to build the Combat Mini-Sentry Gun instead of the standard Sentry Gun. The Mini-Sentry builds, rotates, and fires much faster than the standard Sentry Gun. However, it cannot be upgraded, each shot deals lower damage compared to that of a normal Level 1 Sentry Gun, and the gibs from a destroyed Combat Mini-Sentry Gun do not grant the Engineer any Metal.
Switching from this weapon to a different melee weapon destroys the Combat Mini-Sentry Gun.
Taunting with the Gunslinger equipped performs the Organ Grinder kill taunt.
The Gunslinger is automatically given to any player who obtains 11 Engineer achievements.

Unused content
- The Engineer model has an attachment point named "exhaust" which is located where the exhaust port for the Gunslinger is. At one point, the Gunslinger may have have been planned to give off exhaust particles.
Bugs
- Weapon switching glitches can occur with the Gunslinger and any Wrench, which creates a glitched client view model of the Gunslinger holding the selected Wrench at the same time (which should be impossible as they are both melee weapons, and thus could not be used together). It is also possible for the Gunslinger to appear as the Engineer's default glove.
- The right hand gib of the gibbed Gunslinger-wearing Engineer will still show his regular glove.
- If an ÜberCharge is deployed on the Engineer using the Gunslinger, it will show a wrong skin position of the invulnerable Engineer.
- If connection to the item server is lost while equipped with the Gunslinger, the Engineer's right arm will be invisible on all weapons.
- Occasionally, the Gunslinger will not load in-game and the melee weapon slot goes missing. This glitch can be fixed by switching to a wrench of any kind.
- If the player has the Short Circuit and the Gunslinger both equipped, the two items may sometimes glitch and show a distorted Engineer hand when first deployed.
- If the player has bad connection or receives a big,long lag spike,the Gunslinger will flash from the normal Engineer glove to Gunslinger every second,even after the lag has stopped.In addition,every flash lags the game.This bug can be fixed by switching classes,changing the melee weapon,or leaving the server.
Trivia
- The critical hit animation for the Gunslinger is a punch being swung downward. After playing the critical hit animation, and if left idle, the Gunslinger will jerk and produce a mechanical twitching noise, before resuming the normal idle animation. This is only a visual effect.
- The Gunslinger, along with the Frontier Justice, Wrangler, and Southern Hospitality, appear to have been designed by Radigan Conagher, the Engineer's grandfather. This is shown by a hidden link in the Engineer Update.
- The Gunslinger shares traits with the P.D.Q., an Engineer weapon from the closed beta. Both items share the ability to construct non-upgradable Sentry Guns in a shorter time span than normal. In contrast, the Gunslinger's 4x construction rate for the Mini-Sentry beats the P.D.Q.'s 1.5x construction rate for all buildings.
- The term "gunslinger" is used to refer to a person, commonly in the American Old West, who was dangerous and skilled with a gun.
- The concept of a robot arm item was added based on community feedback of the background blueprints in the Engineer Update teaser trailer[1].
- A promotional advertisement featured for Brütal Legend shows The Gunslinger second to the left.
