<!-- END QBE -->The {{name}} is a mid-tier [[:Category:Pistols|pistol]] that is notable for being the only pistol that fires multiple projectiles from a single shot. Because of this characteristic, the {{name}} can compete with or outperform other top-tier pistols when fighting enemies that do not have very high armor ([[AV]]). When fighting enemies with very high AV, a pistol with a higher [[penetration]] value will likely be needed.

Due to its high rate of fire, the {{name}} is also uniquely effective in combination with certain [[cooking effects]], such as the [[Agility-based_cooking_effects|''Whenever you perform a critical hit...'']] triggered effect.
One of the most significant challenges of using {{name|plural}} for an extended period of time will be keeping them supplied with enough {{favilink|lead slug|plural}}, because they are quite ammo-hungry. Dedicated gunslingers may want to buy all the '''lead slugs''' they can find from merchants, and also consider learning how to craft additional slugs with the relevant [[Tinker I]] schematic.

==Advantages & Disadvantages==
{{Opinion}}
===Advantages===
* Due to its high rate of fire, the {{name}} is uniquely effective in combination with certain [[cooking effects]], such as the [[Agility-based_cooking_effects|''Whenever you perform a critical hit...'']] triggered effect.
* Its fire rate also makes it remarkably effective at disarming opponents using [[Disarming Shot]].
** Using the {{lc:[[Nulling]]}} mod, the chain pistol can potentially destroy forcefields protecting an enemy and disarm them in only one shot.
===Disadvantages===
* Its high fire rate and use of {{favilink|lead slug|plural}} as ammo means using it for an extended period of time may require special attention to keep it supplied.
** Buying additional slugs from merchants or learning the {{lc:[[Tinkering]]}} recipe may be necessary.
* Its relatively low PV means it will not be able to deal damage to high-AV targets.
