In Grand Theft Auto, the Pistol in the HUD image resembles the Soviet Tokarev TT-33, but the in-game sprite (before picking up the weapon) shows a revolver instead, possibly a Colt. The pistol frequently varies in design throughout the series, taking the form of many popular handguns. It is a reliable backup weapon, but not one that should be used as a primary, as it is outclassed by many other weapons in damage, fire rate, and overall effectiveness. The Pistol is mainly used at the start of the game as the first weapon the player obtains, or later when the player has run out of ammunition for other firearms.
