I'm getting back into RDR2O. I played on launch all the way through the beta to level 170 something. I'm just now getting back into it these last couple weeks, and I've watched a ton of KZfaqrs. You are by FAR the best and have the most information that is actually USEFUL. This is the best rdr2 channel for intermediate and advanced players. Great job, my friend. I'd really like to see a video on techniques to get kills with slippery bastard. Like how to use it in the most effective ways in pvp/pve. I got a lot out of your other video abt slippery bastard. I was mainly a SAS user the whole time I played. Really enjoy your stuff man!

Own them all, level 201. It's the navy revolver . Great all round weapon.

There isn't enough love for the schofields :(

I agree with pretty much all your choices. I appreciate the mention of the Navy revolver even though it didn't really take a category. I spent so much time/money making a slippery bastard build but never use it because of those beautiful revolvers

Navy revolver is pretty much my go to sidearm now. I rare use a secondary sidearm and this thing is great for speed draw, i hip fire a lot at close range.

For PVE i prefer the Mauser. Something satisfying about fanning the trigger & watching them react to the impact. I'll burn through express, high velocity and normal ammo through one mission sometimes.

My favorite revolvers are the double actions with gunslingers choice they are amazing high fire rate medium damage with Express fast reload and accurate as hefl

Valuable information each time you make a video. Thank you for your time, each time. You have helped me improve that's for sure. Peace all...the the Revenue Agents show !!

This was your first video that I discovered and it's it's so useful and down-to-earth that I had to check all other guides (and I learned A LOT). You are not only very pro but I love your humour. Just one suggestion: can you please put the link for part two in the video description. KZfaq automatically plays next another video. Thanks for everything!

I only do PVE and mainly use dual Volcanic. Since the accuracy is so high by the time I'm done aiming for the head, the bloom is small enough for a sure headshot. Even if I missed the first shot, second body shot will finish the job.

Thanks for all the guides and tips I'm rocking slippery bastard builds which improved me a lot in pvp keep up the good work 🙌🏼

Pvp cat is on point im always watching him for new ability load outs

Have seen all your videos btw, ty for the time and effort you are putting into making them. You where my guide when I started 70 days ago. And you still are. Keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻

I would rather use doubleaction than mauser, cuz from my standpoint a cowboy ought to use the revolver.

I've tried them all but the LeMat is the best imo. Because one flick of the hammer and you have a shotgun, that is saved my ass so many times I can't even begin to count. Plus I'm a big confederate weapons buff and I've always loved the LeMat in real life. So I guess I'm biased.

I just love it how I can vaporise enemy’s with dual sawn offs it’s like some sci fi alien disintegration blaster or something lol

I only started to play Red Dead Online a few days ago. I made sure to use the first starting weapons ( Cattleman and Carbine repeater) to the fullest (max reload speed) before getting another gun. And honestly going from the Cattleman to the Navy revolver is going from eating dog food to a Michelin Star restaurant. I missed so many headshots with the cattleman because it is so slow to get accurate. With navy revolver i get every enemy with headshot even faster than i can get it with the Bolt action.

exactly same thoughts. 4 play , pve, and some pvp, navy are best choice if u cant buy all weapons. nice video dude

Awesome video as always. Please post the second part of the video.

I'd like to see something about the slugs for shotguns. Damage tests with different builds maybe. I feel like the standard ammo is better, but I'd love to if there is way to use them

Another legendary vid from the legendary PvPCat! 💯👍

Deathgun sent me for your pvp content said you the best on youtube!!

You’re playing GTA now so you can get Lowry's Revolver. It’s pretty cool, and it’s a Navy so it’s a good handgun. Thanks for the great video.

Loved the vid can't wait for a rifle one

Great Video as always! Hope to see a shotgun comparison from you. If u have to choose for pvp would it be Lancaster or Bolt action? Keep it up pvpcat! Seeing ur video is always an instant click :)

I'm a huge fan of the LeMat revolvers, but I also do mostly PvE so it makes sense

Dude I love your videos!

BIG duel wield style player and love close to midrange shootouts. I just stopped using my trust Lematts I was addicted to for 2 Navys and I do think they may be slightly better. Still not sure but it's by far my favorite way to play. Thanks for all your amazing work and videos 🖤🙏

They need a card that reduces bloom when using a single hand gun. Perhaps bigger effect on guns with higher bloom. Basically a gunslinger card for people that like using one gun but with a bigger effect to make up for less shots.

A part 2 would be awesome

Totally agree for the situational use you stated.

Great review

Solid video. Thank you

I have all the sidearms, but I still use cattleman's. They're just too iconic

Yes please do the second part

Thanks so much. Specific videos

I like my navys and lemats the most, but maybe if i get as practiced and disiplined with the autos or mausers they could be better. I do enjoy the double actions

That's what I needed!

the only good thing, is they never change anything so most of information is spot on :)

Saludos desde México wey tus videos son de una gran ayuda me has ayudado desde que soy lvl 20

Cattleman Lemat and double action are my favs

Great Content as Usual! THX. Is High Velocity Ammo still broken?

My current favorite is the LeMat. That reload time is just amazing. I wish it was longer.

I didn't actually know that the sawn off shotgun ignores SB.. that explains a lot!

I like the Cattleman, then i got another one but when i saw that in events and some missions i can't dual wield i got one Schofield because i read somewhere that it's a bug with same weapon dual wield and you should have different weapons. It doesn't work, bug or feature, having different guns still can't dual wield. Saw all the hype around other guns and decided to mix them a bit and test for myself. I like the Navy revolver, reloads slow but i get the same Cattleman feeling while firing it. Regarding damage i can't really say that one is better than the other. All pretty much feel the same to me. Headshots kill with one bullet, body shots two or more. It feels that Navy kills npc's with two body shots most of the time but it's not a rule. I even had one encounter with a random npc where i shot 4 bullets around his neck or heat area until he died. Volcanic is ok but i don't really like it. Fire rate is annoying. LeMAt os ok too, pretty neat with 9 bullets and that shotgun shell if you need it. Reloads kind of slow though. Pretty much in the same ball park with the Navy. I thought about the rest but i don't think it's really worth it. Double action revolver seems bad, the one that doesn't worth it at all. The other pistols seem ok but are too expensive to be attractive. Fire rate looks cool but paired with low damage and low ammo carry capacity i don't think it's worth it. I think i prefer revolvers for being cheaper and more economical. Now i'm playing with Navy primary and LeMAt secondary. So far i like how they perform and of course how they look. Pistols look bad, specially that Mauser on side holster.

I still prefer Schofields because it is the fastest to remove all bloom of all single action weapons, but the opinions in this video are not wrong, all one handed weapons have their uses. Personally I think Paint it Black should just have the perfect accuracy in free fire as it's feature rather than marking, then Rockstar could balance it properly rather than it being the ultimate way to score headshots with inaccurate weapons.

My favorite is the semi auto pistols. I think that comes from playing with them as Arthur and John. But I need to branch out more so this video helps a lot. And I’d definitely like to see part 2.

Great video as always. I have been really struggling with making a sidearm choice. I run slippery mainly and although sawed offs are great you need to get really close to use them. PIB players can use a shotgun with a better range than the sawed off and kill a slippery player before often you can get close enough with sawed offs. So I have been using my favorite pistol (semi auto) and shutting off Slippery and shooting the target. Still a work in progress. Do you have any recommendations for an effective sidearm choice for slippery. I thought even Lemats. Where I could switch to Shotgun if opponent gets close and could have some distance too with the lemats.... thoughts??? Thank you for the video.

Mauser is handy for taking out many PVE targets via head shot super fast ( Revenue Agents )

Great video 👍

I jest like the Scofield I think it looks cool and it is very helpful for me in bounty Hunter missions when I have to use a side arm it is very accurate for me head shots every time no ability cards

for pvp i like the navy revolver (dualed) but pve idk i like to use the schofield (dualed) or either high roller revolver dualed with a double action revolver

I Dual wield fully upgraded Navy Revolvers with Paint it Black 3, Gunslingers Choice 3, Winning Streak 3, and Come Back Stronger 3 against really good players or I might switch out the last card with The Short Game 3. Its a power build for up close gunfights. I'm at level 502. I rarely lose.

Main weapon for PVP/PVE. Navy revolver When PvP gets serious. Mauser pistol

I got the lowry revolver from the gta challenge and i use the sawed off shotgun at the same time its a strange combo but it works 4 me

Finally the double action gets some recognition

The navy revolvers are great but the LeMat revolver has the 9 bullets and the shotgun shell making it a beast on npcs and players around

The Navy Revolver is obviously the best all around but I use the Bounty Hunter version of my Schofields because the Navy sticks too far out of the bottom of the holster.

There isn't enough love for the volcanic pistol! It is like a Litchfield repeater in your hands!

I agree Lemats are amazing have both of mine gold

The double action revolver used to be so good in RDR1 but online no matter how much I would customize it, I still had a hard time killing targets if I tried to shoot multiple rounds in succession. I had to fire slowly, despite it's feature being that is a fast revolver. I wish I didn't invest so much gold on it. 😅

Been running my cattleman since the beginning. 🙂

I hope you are safe, Cat. All the best.

I just got the volcanic this week. Been running it with a Lemat and find the fire rate to be very similar or maybe even the same? Haven't tried it in pvp yet. Gonna try it out since it's 3x rewards in MP this week.

I own every gun gun in the game, most full gold and I still only use a long battles cattleman and a Lancaster repeater

Great video

Amen for outlaw pass 5 which gave us a 100 pistol ammo pouch

Have said it enough times - for PVP and revolvers : 1. DA 2. CATTLLEMAN 3. NAVY/LEMAT . Pvp and pistols: 1. MAUSER 2. MAUSER 3. MAUSER. Mausers are op, otherwise DA for 1v1 are on par. For pve - you can play with a slingshot if u like:)

I really love the mauser

I agree that vulcanic pistol is the best for mouse and keyboard.

I think I could listen to your voice forever😂

You can buy pistol ammo pouch now so it is fine. I have completed many Call to Arms with duel wield volcanic pistols always top kills even finished with 399 today. I will get ammo from crates especially early. I have 200 regular, 100 high velocity, 50 split point and 100 express so 450 bullets with most enemies dropping from headshots or 2-3 body. Anyways plenty of bullets unless you have no ammo crates and need to kill 300 with just pistols.

I prefer the Schofield to the navy, it fires and reloads faster. I use it as my close-med range with gunslingers choice and peak condition Kills a fully reinforced player in 3 shots, and is great for pve.

Thanks as always Cat. One thing though...what about PvP in PvE? Not being a smartass. Meaning, fighting other players in Free Roam? It's a different type of combat than PvP in Showdown. Just something to consider is all. I think the Navy and LeMat still shine for this though as they offer a lot of versatility and player-to-player combat in Free Roam can vary widely during a fight.

Schofields till the end

Priviet Mr Cat i love your videos and your work on them and yes i would like to see a part II! Also i want to ask a question.Is there a tank build for longevity and being able to hold up?in pvp i face so many PiB snipers and in general PiB users,i hate PiB with passion I would appreciate the help :) thank you :D

I personally think the mousers are the best all around with gunslingers choice i only use the mausers high ammo capasity high accuracy high fire rate and in call to arms you can pick up pistol ammo you cant on revolvers only problem is the ammount of ammo you can carry but still love em

In my opinion I think the pistol category will really shine when the M1899s get added to online

I love using dubble action revolvers with gunslinger choice 💀

Was that a PIB ability at 3:00 ? If so, how does he keep shooting while in the marking phasr

Sawed off shot guns are the best hand guns in the game. I dual wield sawed off shot guns with Slippery Bastard and the dual wield card and I win 90% or more of the close quarters fights.

Hi pvpcat, so far no one can analyze the rdo weaponry and abilities as good as you do ( in my opinion). in pvp the Mauser pistols with express ammo is the best but the down side is that we can’t purchase express bullets. That sucks isn’t it? So I use regular ammo. 😕

Now that we can have 200 rounds in an ammo pouch for a pistol. Is Le-Mat revolver still the best for PvE? I mean, they both kill in 3-4 shots, but mausers are a lot faster, and have 1 round more...

I agree with everything, but i just love to storm å hideout or roadblock with the mausers and paint it black! but the mausers are costing me thousands of dollar in gun oil :)

So are volcanic pistols still good if im on controller with auto aim and PIB?

Best weapon is one that can shoot fast and hold lots of ammo in the chamber/magazine if u do headshoots only then every gun is best the only difference would be range and accuracy

Level 48 and I have used all of them and by far the navy r my most used

Is the weapon bloom different between the LeMat and Navy? I assume Navy is better but idk if there is a difference..

I agree, this is a very good video. I am playing on a controller. The navy revolvers are both very good in pvp and pve. They destroy the npc’s with 1 head shot. And insane in pvp using gunslingers choice + peak condition. I use slow and steady tho.

Lemat Revolver Sawed-off Shotgun here. One of a Kind player. Im the only one.

Even on controller my favorite sidearm is volcanic high damage high accuracy use gunslingers choice for headshots op gun

Hi, for play with dual weapons in PvP between dual Navy or dual Semi automatic what's better ?

Nothing like a Schofield when you're shooting on horseback

Maybe you can help @onlypvpcat. If you use a lemat and a navy do you get a ROF boost vs dual lemat? @OnlyPVPCat

What no sniping video? Lol Good vid bro 👍

I’m level 188 and i still use a cattleman because i customise it to look like john’s

THANKS

I'm happy they un-nerfed slippery. Getting blasted by dual moawsers is so fkin annoying

I use dual LeMats and im happy with them

I'm using a combo of navy and Lemat (playin on pc)
