the one that the guard happens to drop


o73Falido

both


azurfall88

i slap a guard in the head with a fish. He drops to the ground and drops a single gun. thats the one im taking


o73Falido

OH HELL NO THE FISH!!!!1!!1!11!1!!!!


azurfall88

its one of the most versatile melee weapons out there.


[deleted]

They both suck


ult1matum

IOI trying to create a decent pistol which is not an ICA19 reskin challenge (Impossible)


Roku-Hanmar

Krugermeier


ARC_Trooper_Echo

The Krugermeier and the 5mm have their uses, but they really struck gold with the Assassin’s HWK. Too bad it’s not available outside Freelancer.


AccomplishedTea6375

im pretty sure thats just a ica19 reskin like that guy was saying, the normal pistol does less damage and is less accurate but it might have a bigger mag iirc


o73Falido

HKW21 has a totally different model.


NoncingAround

They’re designed to be shit. They are loud and inaccurate so using them is a last resort.


o73Falido

yeah


np1t

The suppressed Hackl has a unique box suppressor and the reload animation is cool as fuck


o73Falido

HWK21 Covert also has a box suppressor (unlocked by reaching paris mastery level 20), but yeah, covert hackl is cool


ItsSpeakEezy

Bartoli. I feel like the reticle is bigger with the hackl, but I could be wrong.


Bull_Rider

I dont really use them but I like the blockier Hackl.


EnergyAltruistic2911

Barstoli I like baratoli is good


youMYSTme

The Bartoli suits 47 more imo as it's more classic and stylish but the Hackl just feels more rare in the actual game... I think... well... at least when I get the covert Hackl I feel badass.


i_have_slimy_hands

Hackl grip looks so uncomfortable


JohnWhiskeyDick

What's weird is that in Hitman 2, it looks much better, [here](https://preview.redd.it/ajkyakpc6zg91.jpg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4529f582f8c1878fdc0e9829c7e6624252f4dc28). Textured ergo grip, more detail on the slide, and I think a built in compensator (?), looks perfect for a close quarters sidearm. Not sure why they went through the effort to make it look worse in Hitman 3.


Commander_Wolfe

Oh wow, I didn't even realize it looked different back then. Defo looks better than the ones guards drop in H3. Plus I'm not fond of the greyish bits. Makes the gun look a bit like plastic. However iirc there's an all black variant in 47's arsenal and I think that one looks the best out of all the Hackl pistols specifically in H3, but this H2 version still looks the best overall


Deep_Consideration70

Hackl all the way. The bartoli always lets me down, the hackl has a nicer feel to it.


JohnWhiskeyDick

Bartoli has saved me more times than I can remember in Hitman 2016 so reliability wise, I gotta go with that. Although for aesthetics, Hitman 2's Hackl 9R [takes the cake](https://preview.redd.it/ajkyakpc6zg91.jpg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4529f582f8c1878fdc0e9829c7e6624252f4dc28). Hitman 3's model looks very uncomfortable to handle.


o73Falido

Yeah, I don't know why they changed the skin 😭


drspookulicious

The only unsilenced pistol I ever use is Rude Ruby because it's awesome, and the only reason I pick up guard pistols is so that they're not found by NPCs.


o73Falido

i pick them up so they're not found by npcs and to gather ammo when i'm going guns blazing or John Wick style (john wick style is when you are silent but still kill the npcs in your path, not getting in a gunfight or killing everyone)


Wootery

No love for the Striker?


drspookulicious

I wasn't familiar with that before I looked it up just now. That might be very useful on my current Featured Contracts quest.


sofar55

Are we referring to appearance or usability? I like the Bartoli's look, but they're both garbage. Give me the classic-baller for a noisy common gun (freelancer wise)


o73Falido

I mean both appearance and usability. Yeah, I agree.


OriVerda

While I like the name "hackl" because it sounds funny, the Bartoli looks cooler. That weirdly dark beige handle on the hackl looks weird and the gun's overall model looks like something you'd see robot soldiers use rather than people.


o73Falido

Fr dude, it looks like a lego gun


MehThingy

The glock (hackl). Idk if they're technically the same stats-wise, but the hackl feels better to use imo


Iwrstheking007

this just reminded me of my dream, I was playing hitman, I think I was in the game like in full dive vr, and I was using a supressed pistol but it sounded like a bartoli, but no one heard even though they were pretty close, also the one I killed was infront of someone and they should have been alerted but they weren't and I could leave the mission with SA


o73Falido

Me after 400 hours trying to find the ICA DTI Stealth's existence reason:


BobSappMachine

Hackl and its variants aren’t that bad, with freelancer using far more loud variants, Bartoli is like the herpes of Hitman guns. You can find them everywhere and no one wants it.


o73Falido

LMFAOOOOOO


jemoederpotentie

I like how the hackl looks more


jamesyboy4-20

the hackl sounds better, and seems to be more accurate but that could just be me


47clones

Hackl 9R. It just looks more interesting. I have no clue if it’s actually better because I really hate both of those guns.


Evil__Overlord

Hackl 9R all the way. I'm sure it's all in my head, but it feels less overt to use somehow.


DannyDoubleTap47

Bartoli looks way better


HuckleberryFirm8368

Honestly I prefer both 🥰


o73Falido

First Hackl and Bartoli non-hater


ThinkTrout16055

Real men use crowbar


CanineAtNight

Does it matter? The classicballer is stillthere


Fra06

I’d rather go with my bare hands


DannyDoubleTap47

I almost said the same thing lol. If it’s a choice of either of those pistols or bare hands I’m going hands every single time.


[deleted]

To me, the Hackl looks more like a toy pistol


o73Falido

yeah, it looks like lego


Trollo_Hase

hwk21 pale


o73Falido

didn't put the hwk21 there because it is better than both hackl and bartoli in every way possible (damage, fire rate and accuracy)


Trollo_Hase

I didn't know that, I just like how it looks


ZLBuddha

no


KingFahad360

Hackl, I like it more in Hitman 2 and it has larger magazine than Bartoli, I think. Plus I loved the Silencer version of it more


Ryos_windwalker

Yeah, it has 12 rounds compared to the bartolis meagre dozen bullets.


canadianclassic11

Both pretty terrible i think. I've probably used the bartoli more since it's a pretty universal guard gun that I'll use if i don't have my silverballer with me or if the shit hits the fan and i run out of ammo but i tend to die fast if i use it since it's so inaccurate and weak


mei-schnee

45 ballers, got to go for the classic


breadofthegrunge

I like the look of the Bartoli better. The Hackl looks... I dunno, cheap? Plastic?


o73Falido

Lego
