| - The Repeater Pistol, also known as Von Meinkopt's Micro-Mainspring of Multitudinous Precipitation of Pernicious Lead, is a smaller version of the Repeater Hand Gun, and is fired in one hand, leaving the other free to wield a sword. The weapon has a shorter range than the Repeater Hand Gun but it has the advantage that it can also be used in hand-to-hand fighting. It is favoured by senior members of Engineers School such as Steam Tank Commanders.[1a][3a]
- Repeater Pistols are small, one-handed guns that are generally used by Mordecai or Lilith. They tend to be fairly accurate and fast, with decent sized magazines and fast reload times. They are also known to have slower rates of fire and scopes. They deal moderate damage, but they have increased magazine sizes and fire rates compared to revolvers. Even pistols with high accuracy ratings seem to be less accurate at long ranges than weapons such as combat rifles or sniper rifles, due to their relatively slow-moving rounds. Another downside to using pistols as long-range weapons is their stability; even the ones with scopes are far less stable than two-handed rifles.

Another downside to using pistols as long-range weapons is their stability; even the ones with scopes are far less stable than two-handed rifles. Repeaters are the basic pistol. They typically have decent fire rates combined with decent power and accuracy. These pistols are very common early on in the game, and can be serviceable backup weapons. Unique or legendary repeaters can be especially useful. Machine Pistols are less common than repeaters, but have the advantage of larger magazines and being fully automatic (although some, such as the Rage, have burst fire). On occasion, some very high power machine pistols will be accompanied by high rates of fire, but lower accuracy, creating powerful close range weapons; similar to the utility of a submachine gun, but using different ammo. These high rate of fire pistols are particularly useful when combined with Mordecai's Gun Crazy skill, which gives him a chance to fire 2 shots for the cost of one. Additionally, his Hair Trigger skill increases the magazine size, allowing for longer bursts of fire with them. Repeater pistols (like most weapons subtypes) were phased out in Borderlands 2 in favour of the more general weapons type Pistols, with Dahl, Bandit, Vladof and Hyperion making aesthetically similar weapons to Repeater pistols.
