KelTec PR-57

A compact, lightweight weapon holding 20+1 rounds. Weighing only 400 grams unloaded it’s easy to put it in a pocket (or ankle holster) and forget about it until it’s needed.

Just be aware of the slow reloading, as you insert rounds one-by-one through the breach into the internal magazine.

My goal with weapon mods is to add weapons that fill a niche not readily available; In this case a gun you can use a non-primary weapon that won’t take up much of your carry capacity, has a little bit more stopping power and easier handling than an M9 but a drawback that prevents it from being an overly-good primary gun.

Does this mod work in B41?

No, B42 only.

Is this mod compatible with Rain’s firearms?

Yes, the PR-57 supports attachments from Rain’s Firearms but does not require Rain’s Firearms to work.

Is this mod compatible with <other firearm mod>?

The weapon is built using only vanilla features so probably.

Can this mod be added to/removed from existing games?

Yes, but when adding the gun will only show up as loot in new map areas.

Are you going to add support for stripper clips?

No, because that would require too much reworking of the reloading code because the base game doesn’t support multiple reload options. I may revisit this once B42 firearms are more stable.

Why does this gun use 5.56mm rounds instead of 5.7mm?

Because I didn’t want to add a whole new ammo type just for one gun. Both rounds use the same diameter bullet and look similar[dzq8as2o6rtz2.cloudfront.net]. Sure, a 5.56mm round has approximately four times more kinetic energy… but if "battery" can simultaneously be a AAA and a heavy duty lantern battery then a 5.56x45mm round works as a 5.7×28.

(This mod also adjusts the weight of a 5.56mm round from 25 grams to a more accurate 10grams, otherwise the weight of the ammunition ends up higher than the weight of the gun!)

Does it fit in an ankle holster?

Yes; it can placed in normal holsters, shoulder holsters, ankle holsters and any modded attachment points that support HolsterSmall items.

Is this weapon appropriate for 1993?

The distinctive reloading system was developed in the 1920s, the PR-57 was developed in the 2020s, so on average this weapon is appropriate for any game set after 1970s.
