Its probably going to be nerfed soon. Even though its a special weapon. Heres the problem: Yes, it is a special weapon. But special weapons in this game are held to an extent because in order to balance out the one hit kill, you must satisfy certain conditions. The sniper one hit kills BUT you have to have good accuracy, have to be at range, and have to fight against flinch. The shotgun one hit kills BUT you have to be very close. Primaries on the other hand do not one hit kill but they have more versatility. They are dueling weapons, not specific engagement type weapons. The magnum has the strength of a special weapon with the versatility of a primary, if not more because it has infinite range. It is a dueling weapon but it outduels primaries any day of the week. You effectively get a free primary gunfight win every 3 shots. In my opinion it is way better to use this, with, say, an smg for when you dont have ammo and for when you have to kill shotgunners, than to use a hand cannon and a special weapon.
