The LeMat Revolver is a revolver featured in Red Dead Redemption. It is one of the five Rare Weapons of the game. It is a single-action revolver with a high capacity 9-shot cylinder. This weapon's high capacity allows for more shots between reloads and allows the player to gain the upper hand, especially in short, intense firefights. In singleplayer, this weapon is capable of killing an enemy with one shot to the chest or head, and is capable of taking down some predatory animals with one shot as well, such as wolves.
The LeMat Revolver uses Revolver Ammo.
Obtaining

- The LeMat Revolver is unlocked upon reaching Rank 46.
Trivia
- The LeMat has a 16-20 gauge shotgun barrel beneath the main barrel [1], but is unusable in Red Dead Redemption.
- The LeMat revolvers were used in the American Civil War from 1861–1865.
- LeMat’s revolver was used by such famous Confederate officers as Major Generals Braxton Bragg, J.E.B. Stuart, and Richard H. Anderson.
- Inman, the main character in the novel Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier, carries and uses a LeMat.
- The LeMat is used by Castro, the protagonist of The Outrage, however the gun clicks empty after only 6 shots during the scene in which the gun is fought over.
- The LeMat was chambered for a .42 or .36 caliber round, making it less powerful in real life than the other revolvers in game. The in-game LeMat may be a model chambered in .44, which was not supplied during the Civil War in large numbers due to the Union blockade. This theory is not entirely unlikely, as the game takes place in 1911.
