Aaah this gun takes me back. Roaming the streets, shooting up anything or anyone I felt like, being on the run from the law, hiding out while the big guns sweep through then BAM! YOU'RE DEAD PAL! Oh wait, that was yesterday. I have the best. Job. EVER!
Baby Face's Blaster publicity blurb

The Baby Face's Blaster is a primary weapon for the Scout. It is a short, but slightly modified lever-action Shotgun with a wooden handle and single barrel.

This weapon will slow the Scout down from 400 units/second, 133% of normal speed, to 260 units/second, 86% of normal speed. This is 20 units/second faster than a Soldier and 20 units/second slower than a Demoman, making him the third slowest class while the weapon is equipped. However, for every hit with this weapon, the Scout builds up a "Boost" meter. As the Boost meter charges, the Scout's speed will linearly increase from 260 units/second to 520 units/second, 173% of normal speed. It takes 100 damage with this weapon to fill the Boost meter. If the Scout jumps, the Boost meter is reset, and the momentum during the jump will be reset to 260 units/second.

The Baby Face's Blaster was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "The Brawler's Blaster".

Trivia

  • This weapon's name is a reference to Lester Joseph Gillis, AKA "Template:W", a 1930s bank robber.
  • The appearance of this weapon is intended to loosely resemble that of a sawn-down Template:W Shotgun, as wielded by Template:W of the famous criminal duo Bonnie and Clyde, who were also 1930s bank robbers.
