Is the Magnum even in the game?

So hey, it was in the last update wasn't it...I've never came across the gun itself, found tons of ammo though..So simple questin is that gun even in the game atm?

Well the patch says it is, no one seems to have found it tho, so the spawn is probably bugged. It looks very nice on the picture the devs posted tho! :)

Nope, the .357 isn't in the game yet although it was in the patch notes. You can find the ammo for it though

I heard you can find it on the test servers for the next update so it will probably come when it is stable and released.

I read that it's "in the game" as in the item file, but it's not yet added to the loot tables.

 

On another note, has anyone found any form of shotgun?  Tired of hoarding shells for a weapon I may never find...

I have not found one, but thought I was shot by one. Since I got killed I didn't have the chance to ask the guy haha. There is no shotgun yet. I can't wait for the shotgun to show up, that will be my long gun of choice if there is something other than the double barrel.

.357 is glitched to not spawn on regular servers currently, but that is fixed on test servers. So next update we should have the .357 on regular servers. :)
