The Deliverer is a unique weapon in Fallout 4.
Background[]
A weapon of pre-War design, the Deliverer is a compact handgun favored by infiltrators who attach a silencer to it for covert kills. According to Deacon, Tinker Tom, resident genius of the Railroad, modified an intact unit, increasing its stopping power and effectiveness in stealth, making it one-of-a-kind in the wasteland. The weapon was later given to Tommy Whispers, a "heavy" combat enforcer for the Railroad at the time, to aid in his missions helping synths escape from the Institute.[1][2] Whispers retained the usage of the Deliverer up until the Institute's raid on the group's HQ at the Switchboard, where he sealed himself inside a vault to protect vital technology but ended up dying from sustained wounds.
In 2287, if the Sole Survivor agrees to work with the Railroad, Deacon brings them in on a plan to infiltrate the Switchboard and recover a lost prototype for Doctor Carrington. Inside the vault holding the prototype, Deacon recovers the weapon from the fallen Tommy and offers it to his new ally, having them take it regardless of whether they want to.[3]
Characteristics[]
Deliverer expanded
The Deliverer is a compact semi-automatic handgun chambered for 10mm rounds and is found with a suppressor. While it uses the same ammunition as the 10mm, the Deliverer outperforms comparably modified 10mm pistols in almost every area. It also comes with the V.A.T.S. Enhanced legendary effect, which grants increased V.A.T.S. hit chance and 25% lower action point cost. This, combined with its pre-attached suppressor, makes the Deliverer an excellent sidearm. However, there are no scope mods available for this weapon, limiting its range and accuracy. This weapon also has little recoil, allowing for deadly rapid fire. The pistol can be fitted with a comfort grip or sharpshooter's grip for more accurate shots and recoil control. The Deliverer's default magazine holds 12 rounds, with larger custom magazines increasing its capacity to 16 rounds.
The Deliverer's default suppressor reduces its effective range but silences the weapon. Gaining the Ace Operator perk from the Nuka-World add-on will increase the effective damage of the Deliverer further while its suppressor is equipped; this requires completing Power Play while having the Operators remain as one of the two allied gangs.
If it is acquired during the quest Tradecraft, the Deliverer comes with the standard receiver, short barrel, standard grip, standard magazine, standard sights and suppressor modifications by default.

Notes[]
- The Deliverer has a similar appearance to the Acid Soaker from the Nuka-World add-on with some exceptions: the Acid Soaker has a modified barrel and a glass container on the top that dispenses the acid.
- Despite the extended barrel being described as "standard," the Deliverer is found with the short barrel modification. This feature is shared with the .44 pistol and the 10mm pistol.
Behind the scenes[]
- The Deliverer is known as the "covert pistol" in the game mesh files.
- Despite being chambered for 10mm rounds, the ammunition seen in the Deliverer's magazine is labeled as .32 Caliber and also has a unique appearance compared to other pistol ammunition.
