The L'Etranger, pronounced /le.tʁɑ̃.ʒe/, is a community-made primary weapon for the Spy. It is a stylish narrow-barreled revolver with an ivory handle design.
This weapon deals 20% less damage than the default Revolver, making it less suitable for direct conflict. However, a successful hit will fill the Spy's Cloak meter by 15%, regardless of which cloaking device is equipped. Players can therefore use the gun to charge their Cloak in order to perform an escape or traverse a guarded area. This is especially useful when there is no metal or ammunition within close proximity.
The kill icon for the L'Etranger was contributed by HyenaDip.

Bugs
- Like the Ambassador, the weapon does not have a barrel modeled or textured, and this can be seen when reloading. Additionally, the cylinder does not rotate when fired and the bullets do not visibly exit the chamber, which is visible at a high viewmodel FOV setting. This issue, along with the lack of hammer movement upon firing is present on both the Ambassador and Big Kill.
- The bullets chambered in the weapon do not line up with the barrel.
- Like the Ambassador, Big Kill and Diamondback the Spy does not actually put any bullets in the barrel while reloading, nor do any bullets eject.
- Wielding this weapon with DirectX 8.0 enabled will result in it being visible even when the Spy is cloaked.
Trivia
- L'Etranger is the French title of Template:W, written by Template:W, in which an emotionally-detached French Algerian murders an Arab with a handgun.
- The Main Character of the book is widely considered a sociopath due to his cold nature, similar to the Spy's cold and murderous actions.
- L'Etranger is French for "The Stranger", "The Outsider" or "Abroad", tying in with the Spy's mysterious nature and his origins in Template:W.
- The weapon is modeled after the Template:W. However the L'Etranger, like the Revolver and Ambassador, reloads with a speedloader and flip-out cylinder, whereas the actual Nagant uses an Abadie gate and hand ejector to load one cartridge at a time. Also, the Nagant has a 7-round cylinder, as opposed to the L'Etranger's cylinder holding 6, like the Spy's other revolvers.
- As correct nouns in the French launguage require an acute accent, the upper case E in the weapon's name should be É.
