The Heavy Pistol is a handgun in GTA 5 and GTA Online, unlocked at Rank 1 and sold at Ammu-Nation for $3,750. Its datamined figures are 40 damage, a fire rate of about 143 rounds per minute, a range figure of 120 and an 18 round magazine, a big magazine for a handgun this early. Its 40 damage is solid for an early sidearm, ahead of the base Pistol's 26 and the Combat Pistol's 27 by a wide margin, while the 18 round magazine means fewer reloads than most other handguns in this data carry. The fire rate of 143 rounds per minute keeps it controllable, so you can land several shots in a row without the spread getting wild. It works well as a main sidearm well into a new character's early game. It has no Mk II version. Being a Rank 1 unlock, it gives a new character a genuinely strong all round pistol from the very start, rather than a placeholder to replace quickly.
Buy it from any Ammu-Nation for $3,750 once you reach rank Dead Man Walking (GTA V; Enhanced version)Rank 1 (GTA Online).
