: That was just me and my fancy English, plus the way Natascha voiced it as '100% chance to slow target' seemed suspicious. It's changed now anyway.--[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]] 17:32, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Its primary weapon, not a secondary weapon. It replaces the FAN. [[User:Balthazar|Balthazar]] 00:58, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

::I'm assuming its still protected from editing to prevent server load, but it does seem a contradiction in terms to have it protected with the recent addition template on it. [[User:Balthazar|Balthazar]] 01:16, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
If it's similar to the COP 357 derringer, shouldn't the page say "it appears as a four-barreled derringer", as opposed to "it appears as a four-barreled pistol"? [[User:CdeMonkey|CdeMonkey]]
 
:I just had to look up what a derringer was.  In my opinion, it's fine as "Pistol".  While not entirely accurate, it's the easiest for those without gun knowledge to understand.-[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 03:05, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Correct name ==
 
 
 
http://www.tf2items.com/allitems.php has it as "Shortstop" (from items_game.txt).  So the current title is correct. -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]] 00:59, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Damage + Function Times ==
 
 
 
Just did some testing with a couple bots; here's what I got:
 
 
 
'''Damage'''
 
 
 
* Base: 12 per pellet
 
* Max Ramp Up: 150% (18 damage per pellet)
 
* Max Fall Off: 50% (6 damage per pellet)
 
* Pellet Count: 4
 
* Point Blank: 69-72
 
* Medium Range: 24-48
 
* Long Range: 6-12
 
* Mini-Crit: 16 per pellet
 
* [[Critical hit]]: 24 per pellet
 
 
 
'''Function Times'''
 
 
 
* Attack Interval: 0.64
 
* Reload: 1.25
 
 
 
Durp. Forgot me name. -- [[User:MistahFixIt|MistahFixIt]] 01:00, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
: Additional notes and/or trivia:
 
* This is more or less double the damage of a Shotgun pellet.
 
* A pepperbox pistol or 'pepper gun' is any small handgun or pistol with multiple barrels fixed around a centre axis.
 
* Taunting with the Shortstop performs the Pistol taunt, not the Scattergun/FaN taunt. (Kinda obvious in retrospect, but w/e)

Could the ammunition used be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rat-shot Rat-shot?]
 
Is this worth noting at all? [[User:Mechlord|Mechlord]] 16:00, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
