“

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 realised 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. — Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol publicity blurb

”

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 will be awarded up to 3 health points per enemy hit, depending on damage dealt (similar to the Black Box), and the weapon fires 15% faster than the Pistol. However, the clip size is 25% smaller, down to 9 shots per clip compared to the Pistol's 12 shots.

The Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "Pick-Pocket's Pocket Pistol".
