Overview[]

This section is a stub. You can help Armed Assault Wiki by expanding it.

The .38 Revolver is a double-action revolver.

It loads solely from a 6-round cylinder, and can attain a fire rate of up to 600 rounds per minute with a muzzle velocity of 300 m/s.

The .38 Revolver is unable to mount optics or be fitted with muzzle attachments. It does not use a speed loader for reloading and requires cartridges to be fed individually into the cylinder.

Ironsights[]
