Based on the [[wp:AutoMag (pistol)|AutoMag pistol]], the 44 is a .44 Magnum-caliber handgun for quick and accurate kills. This weapon is more powerful and accurate than the .357 [[Desert Eagle|Combat Pistol]] and even has a larger magazine size (holding 8 rounds as opposed to the Combat Pistol's 7), but fires at a slower rate due to recoil and takes longer to reload because of its magazine size. The 44 is capable of delivering delayed fatal blows; if the NPC is hit by 2 or 3 shots in the limbs or chest (not the head), they may survive for a few moments, laying on the ground, writhing in pain, before succumbing to death.

The gun is first obtained by killing [[Vic Manzano|Vic]] in the mission "[[Boulevard Baby]]". The pistol can be purchased from Armando Torres' [[Gun Car|gun van]] for $640 (with an additional magazine of 8 rounds costing $50), and spawns in Luis' [[Northwood Apartment]] on the coffee table in front of the flatscreen after the player successfully completes 10 [[Drug Wars]] and "Boulevard Baby". In The Ballad of Gay Tony's multiplayer, it is the default starting weapon, unless a specific weapon set is chosen. Like other pistols, it is capable of being used for [[executions]].

The gun was first briefly seen in the second [[Episodes From Liberty City]] trailer in which [[Luis Fernando Lopez|Luis]] shot a gunman on a plane while driving the [[Bati Custom]] and jumped on before it took off.
