Let's take you through the pistols in RDO.

You know when to turn to your sidearms, right? When shit hits the fan, only the iconic sidearms of a cowboy will save you. Although irrational in real life, the Hollywood-style dual-wielding revolvers or pistols can actually save your six in the Wild West. So here are our top picks for this category.

3. Dual Volcanic

Too accurate a name!

Price: $270
Unlock level: 21

You need good accuracy when dual-wielding. This is why the lesser-used Volcanic pistol is on this list. The Volcanic Pistol deals the most damage per shot with the highest accuracy of any handgun, but it suffers from the lowest rate of fire. It is actually great for early-game.

Stats for dual-wielding

• Damage: 53.2
• Fire rate: 0.67s
• Reload time: 7.50s

2. Dual Mauser

Expensive and fast!

Price: $600
Unlock level: 34

The Mauser Pistol is based on the German-made Mauser C96 and unlocks at Rank 34. If an outlaw decides to buy this stylish semi-auto sidearm, it comes with a hefty price tag. There are indeed better semi-auto options available. Yet, the Mauser is still a reliable and fast sidearm that is made even more effective by dual-wielding.

The Mauser also pairs well with other weapon combinations like the Sawed-Off Shotgun. This gives players a well-rounded, powerful combo for their sidearm selection, even if it is one of the most expensive in Red Dead Online. In PvP, you can use Mausers because of their high fire rate.

Stats for Dual-wielding

• Damage: 31.65
• Fire rate: 0.22s
• Reload time: 3.00s

1. Dual Semi-automatic

Best of the best!

Price: $537
Unlock level: 22

The Semi-Automatic Pistol has a blazing fast fire rate perfect for pumping your enemies full of lead. However, you can only hold 100 rounds of pistol ammo. The limited ammo sucks but the Semis are good with every ammo type; even regular. With these, you’ll hip fire faster than dual Lemats.

Stats for dual-wielding

• Damage: 30.9
• Fire rate: 0.22s
• Reload time: 2.60s
