Overview

Design details

The Gunfighter Magnum is a stripped down M6H2 that had the trigger guard, under-barrel flashlight module and smart link module removed, but has been modified with fast-reload magazines. These modifications were made for competition purposes and have reduced the weight to allow quick draws and fast reloads.[4]

Variants

  • Buck's Magnum: The sidearm of spartan Buck. The Magnum has the Gunfighter receiver body, Whispered Truth slide, and the front iron sight that's seen on the Projection Sight, appearing to have been attached separately[citation needed]

Attachments

  • Extended magazine: The extended magazine increases reserve and ready ammunition capacity by 50%.
