Handling
Swinging it
A melee weapon records none of the firing stats. What it records is the trade between the two swings - a heavy costs stamina and time for the damage it adds.
- Light 90
- Heavy 200
Once your stamina is spent the cooldown stretches to 1.5s - 3.3× the rested heavy swing.

Traits and perks
Traits that apply
Every trait this weapon's own data references. A recommendation is the game's own; the numbers above are the ones we can prove from the weapon's attribute presets.
Silent Killer Recommended 3 pts Reduce noise when performing melee attacks.
A few perks carve out exceptions in their own description - Crack Shot excludes shotguns and sawed-off variants - so read the perk text, not just the listing.
