The best Cyberpunk 2077 revolvers are a mix of pure unadulterated power packed into each shot and how it integrates into V's current build. Unique revolvers, in particular, are a blast to use, but unfortunately the best unique weapons in Cyberpunk can be hard to find.
Since V is able to carry three different weapons in Cyberpunk 2077 at any given time, it is an excellent idea to have all based covered when it comes to the different ranges enemies will be fought at. While things like sniper rifles and shotguns can be a lot of fun to use, they can sometimes be a little difficult to handle while in close quarters with enemies. This is why having a sidearm like a revolver is incredibly important, as they are very easy to wield while at shorter ranges. Below are the best revolvers Cyberpunk 2077 has to offer, as well as details on how to get them.

Comrade's Hammer
The Comrade's Hammer is one of the best revolvers in Cyberpunk, but a few things hold it back from being perfect. The Comrade's Hammer revolver features a massively high damage output and explosive rounds, which means when a shot hits it is going to absolutely decimate foes, and it also comes with a chance of knockdown, effectively rendering enemies unable to fight back momentarily.
The Comrade's Hammer is also the only unique revolver in Cyberpunk 2077 that is a Tech Weapon. As a Cyberpunk Tech Weapon, players can charge up shots to deal even more damage and shoot through cover. The downside here is that this weapon only has one shot per clip, and takes a ridiculous amount of time to reload. Players can craft the Comrade's Hammer by collecting the blueprint during a "Suspected Crime" mission in Arroya.

Archangel
One of the largest drawbacks to using a revolver in Cyberpunk 2077 is that these weapons tend to have a huge amount of recoil, making lining up additional shots pretty difficult. Players who tend to avoid revolvers for that reason will get a lot out of the Archangel because it has drastically reduced recoil compared to most of Cyberpunk's pistols and revolvers.
On top of this, players are also able to deal electrical damage and shock effects with the Archangel, so with reduced recoil its very easy to make these effects stack on top of each other and deal increased damage. To get it, players will need to complete the "A Like Supreme" side mission, and they will then be given the Archangel as a reward.

Amnesty
This is another of the best revolvers in Cyberpunk that also has drastically reduced recoil, but also dishes out a high amount of bleeding effects against enemies, which is great to continue draining their health while the player reloads or ducks in cover to regenerate their own health.

The best part of the Amnesty is its improved damage effect, which gives the player the chance to deal massive amounts of damage, especially when dishing out headshots. Players will acquire the Amnesty in Cyberpunk 2077 by completing Cassidy's bottle shooting challenge in the "We Gotta Live Together" quest.

Doom Doom
The Doom Doom is the kind of revolver in Cyberpunk 2077 that is best not handled by amateurs or those who despise the ways these guns handle. In the hands of more experienced revolver users, this weapon has the potential to be one of the deadliest weapons in all of Cyberpunk 2077.
The first thing the Doom Doom has going for it is the chance to deal out bleed effects on enemies. This may not seem all that important, considering a lot of weapons do that, but the difference is that the Doom Doom also fires off four bullets at the same time. It brings with it an increased rate of fire, increased damage, and even a pretty significant chance to dismember enemies. This means that at close range players can dish out a ridiculous amount of damage at their enemies as they take whole limbs off of them.
The main problem with this Cyberpunk 2077 revolver is that it has significantly increased recoil, which means that most players will have trouble keeping it straight when attacking their enemies, but those who can will experience more damage output than almost any other weapon available to them.
The Doom Doom can be acquired from Dum Dum during the "Second Conflict" side job after picking up Nancy from the Totentanz. Check it out in the video from MrFungi here:
Crash
Without a doubt, the most well-rounded and best revolver in Cyberpunk 2077 has to be the Crash. This weapon doesn't pack nearly as much punch as the Doom Doom does, but that's okay. Rather than dishing out a massively high amount of damage, the Crash combines the best aspects of revolvers with the best aspects of submachine guns, with none of the downsides.
This incredible revolver sports both decreased recoil and bullet spread, which makes staying on target incredibly easy. On top of this, players can hold down the fire button for a few moments to charge it up, and then upon release it will fire off the rest of the clip automatically. This means players are able to convert one of the stronger revolvers in the game into an automatic weapon in Cyberpunk with relative ease.

The only downside Cyberpunk's Crash revolver features is a decreased rate of fire when fired normally, but anyone who fires this weapon normally doesn't deserve it to begin with. To acquire the best revolver in Cyberpunk 2077, players will need to complete all of River's side quests before being gifted it at the end of "Following the River."
