9mm Mauser (Fallout)

The Mauser M/96 9mm is a weapon in Fallout.

Characteristics
A unique pistol found in the possession of Gizmo, the Mauser is largely a collector's item. It has less range, deals lower damage, and has less bullets in the magazine than the 10mm pistol the player starts the game with. Its only redeeming quality is its weapon perk, but even then, the finite ammo supply disqualifies it as anything more than a novelty.

Behind the scenes

 * The Mauser is, of course, the Mauser C96, often called the Broomhandle for its distinctive grip. Though it was designed originally for 7.63mm, Red 9 variants chambered in 9mm were made during the First World War.
 * Highlighting its unique nature, the FRM for the Mauser is actually called GIZGUN1.frm.
 * According to the Fallout demo this pistol's name was originally going to be called "Gizmo's pistol".
