The Perico Pistol is a single-shot handgun in Grand Theft Auto Online, added with The Cayo Perico Heist update. It is El Rubio's prized sidearm, an antique pistol with a rounded ivory grip bearing a shield on a gold circle. Its barrel and loading mechanism are gold, and the barrel carries the German inscription "MIT OFFENEN ARMEN". Its form draws on a German pistol grip, with details styled after a James Bond film adaptation.
During The Cayo Perico Heist Finale, the pistol is kept in Juan Strickler's private office on Cayo Perico, inside a drawer in his desk. The drawer opens with a key taken from a sleeping Cayo Perico Guard, who can be found at various locations around Los Santos. Once the pistol has been unlocked, Ammu-Nation stocks ammunition for it.
The Perico Pistol works much like the Marksman Pistol. It loads and fires one round at a time, delivering heavy damage but requiring a reload after every shot. Its accuracy and lock-on distance make it less suited to distant targets than most handguns. Like the Marksman Pistol, the Pistol .50 and most revolvers, it is effective against the bullet-resistant windows of certain armored vehicles. The Money Fronts update also lists it as a drive-by weapon.
Trivia
- ◆In the film, The Man with the Golden Gun, the Golden Gun was designed and owned by the fictional Francisco Scaramanga, a wealthy Spanish assassin who owns a private island, sharing similarities with Juan Strickler. The similarities are closer in the original Ian Fleming novel in which Scaramanga's island is located in the Caribbean (the film's island is located somewhere near Thailand).
- ◆The location where the Perico Pistol is found resembles the office from the film where Francisco uses the Golden Gun to eliminate his (former) employer, Hai Fat.
- ◆When obtaining the key from the sleeping guard, the player is also awarded $7,007, another reference to James Bond 007. Even after obtaining the key and the pistol, players can continue to loot the guard when he spawns for a further $7,007 each time.
