| “ | I bet you're all thinking, "Scout can handle the meanest guns out there, he wouldn't use a tiny gun, he's too awesome for that." And you'd be right, I am awesome. Then I realized I could tell people that they are going to be killed BY THE SMALLEST GUN KNOWN TO MAN! Then kill them. Ma always said don't make threats you can't carry out.

The Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol is a community-created secondary weapon for the Scout. It is a small, black pistol with a short barrel and light-colored wooden grips.
While the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol is active, the player restores 3 health points per bullet that hits an enemy, and the weapon fires 15% faster than the Pistol. However, its magazine capacity is 25% smaller, down to 9 shots per magazine compared to the Pistol's 12 shots.
The Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

- Decreased clip size by 25%.
- Removed wearer never takes falling damage when active.

- Fixed the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol always giving 7 hp per-hit.
- Reduced maximum (close-range) per-hit heal amount to 3 (from 7).
Notes
- The attributes are listed as When weapon is active, despite all the attributes being effects relating to the weapon itself, and thus clearly only occurring when the weapon is active.
Trivia
- This weapon's name is a reference to Charles Arthur Floyd, nicknamed "Pretty Boy Floyd", a 1930s bank robber.
- The design is mostly based on the Colt 1908 Vest Pocket Pistol, which was often used by criminals for covert killings.
- The design is also similar to some concept art of the original stock Pistol.
- The Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol is a left-handed model (as shown by the ejection port being visible on the left-hand side of the gun), despite this Scout holds it right-handed. A right-handed pistol has the ejection port on its right side to prevent ejected casings from striking the user.
- However, neither of Scout's handguns eject casings in gameplay.
- In addition, the portion of the slide in front of the ejection port doesn't appear to be long enough to open all the way, as it is shorter than the port itself.
