Ooooo a Unique gu-
IT IS A REVOLVER RIFLE SNIPER AND ENGRAVED AND BLACK AND OMG THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE WEAPO- *No mods*

The weapon is called the Black Death. While I did find a weapon mod on the Nexus with that title (it's hidden though, no luck there) I don't seem to have any file by that name installed, so that's weird. It also has a strange feature that while in ironsights (scope) it seems to have literally no recoil, unfortunately. This probably means I'll have to not use it... I mean unless I want a weird unrealistic weapon alongside all the more sensible weapons I have. BUT IT'S SO COOOOL.
In fact some revolvers nowdays still fires rifle round, by classification, rifle rounds are not all bottlenecked, just long and some even have a round bullet,
the .50 beowulf and the .44 magnum is one example of that kind of round
