Where did you find it?

Patch is live.

Military barracks outside the rooms in main corridor. Had 60 bullets for it by chance in my rucksack :)

 

It fires like a beast. Very loud tho

Yeah as it should ; I will like it as a short Range denial weapon, really enjoy Magnum

I really want to find one, if only to have a duel with another player.

Found 4 magnums in a firestation after update was live, was feeling like testing the gun on a zombie.

found ammo in a tec building. and there was a survivor, i let him get a good look at the .357 before i shot him in the chest.

 

firing a gun never felt so good:)

Hey,

 

Tonight i looted a magnum out of a player's inventory after a fight (and btw i was glad to see that the bodies didn't disappear on respawn/disconnect), and I could not manage to fire it. I can load ammo into it, but when i try to fire it keeps "clicking" like there's no ammo in there. Is there something i'm missing here ?

It was ruined by you not aiming for the head :P

I looted another magnum this time not from a player, and it worked flawlessly. It seemed it was indeed because i shot the guy in the body. I didn't think it affected the weapons cause we can't see their status.
