| “ | This might look like an ordinary revolver, until you realize that it helps a talking dog solve crimes. How many crimes has YOUR dog solved lately? And let's face it, his revolver kind of sucks too. Man, we want to talk about this gun more, but we can't get over how much your dog sucks.
— Official Description

” |
The Big Kill is a primary weapon for the Spy. It is a promotional weapon based on the oversized .44 Revolver used by Sam, the titular six-foot talking dog detective in Sam & Max. The Big Kill could be acquired by pre-ordering Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse or buying the game up to a week after release.
The weapon is a straight replacement for the standard Revolver, bearing no unique gameplay features of its own. Therefore, the Big Kill is fairly accurate and deals moderate damage with some damage falloff with distance. Its primary purpose is to fend off enemies at range, or as a fallback weapon after an unsuccessful backstab attempt.

Trivia
- The actual Big Kill was about twice as large in the original comic books, often with the barrel bending under its own weight.
- Sam's gun was not referred to in the Sam & Max series as "Big Kill" until being listed under this name in the notebook in episode 3 of season 3, "They Stole Max's Brain!." Sam refers to it then as "My 2nd best and 3rd most dangerous friend."
- Although the Big Kill uses the Revolver's stats, the model itself is actually re-skin of the Ambassador, and also uses the Ambassador's animations.
- The weapon closely resembles a combination between a Smith & Wesson Model 29 and a Colt Peacemaker.
- The kill icon for the Big Kill was originally the same as the Revolver. This was changed to its current kill icon in the July 8, 2010 patch.
- The name 'Big Kill' was first used in an early drawing by Steve Purcell, the Creator of Sam & Max[1]
