The Smith & Wesson .32 pistol is a small gun in Fallout 3.
CharacteristicsEdit
The Smith & Wesson .32 pistol was manufactured throughout the late nineteenth century and into the early part of the twentieth. As the name implies, it uses .32 caliber rounds for ammunition. It is commonly found to be in use by raiders and wastelanders. Although it is a light weapon, it pales against the 10mm pistol in terms of rate of fire and damage. It can, however, be fired quite fast if the player can get a rhythm down.
DurabilityEdit
The .32 pistol can fire a total of about 556 standard rounds, the equivalent of 112 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
VariantsEdit
Wild Bill's Sidearm - Found in Wild Bill's pockets, Wild Bill's Sidearm is much more powerful than any other small sidearm, exceptions being the laser pistol, the plasma pistol, Colonel Autumn's 10mm pistol or the scoped .44 magnum.
The following is based on Fallout 3 cut content and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
Law Dog - A variant of the .32 pistol that was cut from the base game.

LocationsEdit
Big Town - Flash and Timebomb will always be wielding one. Also, Shorty will have this weapon if the Small Guns path of the quest Big Trouble in Big Town is followed.
James seems to have a fondness for .32 pistols, as he is equipped with one after exiting Tranquility Lane, and two can be found inside Project Purity, one in the gift shop, and another in the basement sub-levels.
Hubris Publishing - one can be found in the building, under a table in a dead man's hand, implying he committed suicide. There is a Nuka-Cola vending machine, whiskey, and Quantum right next to it, which help in locating it.
Megaton - Jenny Stahl carries one.
Minefield - one can be found near the mattress in the building where Arkansas snipes from.
National Guard depot bunker - one can be found on a wooden shelf, next to a box of 5 bullets for it.
Old Olney underground - one can be found in perfect condition, on a shelf.
Springvale - one can also be found with Silver at the small ranch, which can be entered right after exiting Vault 101.
These are not very hard to come by. Most locations to find it are in shops, on raiders and Talon Company mercs.
