Strategic Analysis: Combat Pistol in GTA 6
In the current meta, the Combat Pistol occupies a niche position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 1.200s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios. The weapon requires 8 shots to eliminate a full-health target at close range, 11 at medium range, and 16 at long range.
With 350 rounds per minute and a 12-round magazine, the Combat Pistol can secure kills within a single magazine. Its headshot multiplier of 2x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 0.514s with consistent headshots.
Range performance sees damage drop to 70% at medium range and 50% at long range. Players should strictly engage within close range for optimal results.
