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 Edward Buck. His Magnum has the same gunfighter receiever, Whispered Truth slide, and the front sigh of the Projection Sight, appearing to have been attached separately[citation needed]

The Whispered Truth is a magnum machine pistol that fires in burst. It has the same modifications as the Gunfighter, but has been mounted with a custom nickel plated slide and a supressor
