Amnesty is Cassidy Righter's revolver, won in a bottle-shooting contest at the Aldecaldos camp. It is a quick-draw gun. A hip-fired headshot right after drawing it is a guaranteed critical hit. The idea is to swap to it, land one strong headshot and swap back. Amnesty is an endgame reward from the main job We Gotta Live Together. It is on the Aldecaldos path, past the point of no return.
Combat
Amnesty is strongest right after it is drawn. A headshot fired from the hip straight after pulling the revolver out always deals crit damage. The gun works best when V swaps to it, fires a quick shot at the head from the hip, and swaps away again.
The large headshot bonus means even a normal aimed headshot hits very hard. Amnesty works best as an opener. V lands one crit to the head as a fight starts, then swaps to the main weapon.

Character Builds
Quick Draw is the key perk for Amnesty. It speeds up the swap to revolvers and restores Stamina when swapping during combat. Both effects help with the quick swaps this revolver needs. Focus and Deadeye add headshot damage for revolvers. While Deadeye is active, Nerves Of Tungsten-Steel guarantees crits on headshots with revolvers. Every headshot then crits, not just the first one after the draw. High Noon speeds up the next reload after a headshot kill.
Kiroshi Cockatrice Optics add extra crit chance. The Militech Apogee Sandevistan adds crit damage and headshot damage while time slows.

Lore
Amnesty is the Iconic variant of the Malorian Overture and the signature weapon of Cassidy Righter. Cassidy is a nomad of the Aldecaldos clan. Its description says Cassidy's mods have turned it into the Wild West's most lethal revolver. During We Gotta Live Together, V walks through the Aldecaldos camp and talks to the nomads. Cassidy is at the edge of the camp, shooting empty bottles, and V can join his target practice. A high enough score earns his revolver.
Notes
- The gun stays available in free roam if V wins it and then finishes the Aldecaldos ending.
