  • Repeaters with stable Dahl barrel when aiming fires 4-round bursts without reducing stability and with slightly reduced recoil and damage.
  • Tediore barrel (standard) – Does nothing additional.
  • Maliwan barrel (elemental) – Increases elemental effect damage (if the weapon spawn with an element) and accuracy.
  • Bandit/scav barrel ("heavy") – Increases the weapon damage but reduces accuracy.

  • TeapotUnique corrosive pistol with a contagious elemental effect.
  • HornetLegendary corrosive pistol with double the burst of bullets.
