+The '''.44 pistol''', also known simply as the '''44''' in-game, is a pistol featured in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]] episodic pack for [[Grand Theft Auto IV]].
-The '''Pistol .44''' is a new weapon in the [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]] DLC [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. It is a .44 Magnum-caliber handgun for quick and accurate kills, and it holds 8 rounds per magazine. It 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. The weapon is modeled from the [[wp: .44 AMp AutoMag|.44 AMP AutoMag]]. This weapon is more powerful and accurate than the .357 [[Desert Eagle]], but fires at a slower rate due to recoil. It takes 2 body shots to take down a unarmored target. It can be first obtained by killing Vic in the mission [[Boulevard Baby]]. The weapon spawns in Luis' [[Northwood Apartment]] on the coffee table in front of the flatscreen after successfully completing 10 [[Drug Wars]] and completing Boulevard Baby.  It is capable of being used for executions.
+== Description ==
+Based on the [[wp:AutoMag (pistol)|AMP Auto Mag Model 180]] with a wooden grip, the 44 is a [[wp:.44 Magnum|.44 Magnum]]-caliber semi-automatic handgun for quick and accurate kills. This weapon is more powerful and accurate than the .357 [[Desert Eagle|Combat Pistol]], but fires at a slower rate due to recoil, has a smaller magazine size due to its larger cartridge, and has a longer reload time. 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 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]]". Otherwise, the gun can also be obtained by killing [[Vic Manzano|Vic]] during "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.
+== Trivia ==
+*Production for the AMP Auto Mag Model 180 actually stopped sometime in 1971 and now sell for around $2,000.
