Old Handgun

Info
The Old Handgun can be found by the player in a guest room drawer.

When asked about the gun, Harvey states it was his father's gun, and he kept it for emergencies, still having a few rounds for it. When you ask Rose about the gun, she confirms it was Harvey's, but that it was kept in her bedside drawer, not with Harvey. This also alludes to the possibility that they may have been in a relationship of some kind, as suggested by Jimmy's actor Huld Martha in this Reddit AMA.

In the story, Harvey can be seen in a second floor hallway mentally preparing himself to have to point a gun at Jimmy and force him out of the hotel. He then chases Jimmy around the ground floor of the hotel with it, before Jimmy gets the upper hand and stabs him in the neck with a letter opener.

The handgun in question is a Post-WWII era civilian Colt M1911A1, chambered in .45ACP. This can be identified as such due to the hump beneath the dovetail safety which was not present on the original M1911, as well as the lanyard loop which was not standard on the M1911, only given to officers, whereas the A1 model has one standard. Given that Jimmy was still younger by the point in the story when the gun becomes relevant, a gun of this model and time period would make sense for Harvey's father to have owned.

The in-game render of the gun can be flipped, and the gun may appear as either right or left handed, depending on the orientation the game randomly puts it in. Harvey holds it in his right hand.
