F.E.A.R. Hints

AT-14 Pistol

  • Clip/Max Ammo: 18 / 100 (both numbers are doubled when you have two pistols at once)
    First Found: Interval 01 (you start the game with one)

    This is the most basic ranged weapon in the game, and will probably be discarded when several more powerful weapons are discovered. However, remember that it is very lightweight and won't slow you down, plus you can score a silent kill from a distance with it by shooting an enemy in the back of the head. Also, you can pick up a second pistol and dual-wield them in true John Woo style!
