How do I get the Flaco’s Revolver in RDR2?

Flaco’s Revolver is a unique weapon in Red Dead Redemption 2 that can be obtained by completing a specific encounter with the character Flaco Hernandez. This revolver is a modified Schofield Revolver with a custom engraving and a unique appearance, making it a prized possession for collectors and players who enjoy using distinctive weapons. To acquire Flaco’s Revolver, you must progress through the game’s story and complete the Gunslinger side mission involving Flaco Hernandez.\n\nTo start the Gunslinger mission, you need to visit the Valentine saloon in Chapter 2 or later. Inside the saloon, you’ll find a photographer named Theodore Levin, who will give you a quest to track down and photograph famous gunslingers. One of these gunslingers is Flaco Hernandez, who resides in the Grizzlies East region near Cairn Lake. This mission is part of the Stranger mission series, so it’s optional but highly recommended for players who want to collect unique weapons.\n\nOnce you accept the mission, head to Flaco’s hideout in the Grizzlies East. His cabin is located northeast of Cairn Lake, near the edge of the map. Be prepared for a confrontation, as Flaco is not willing to cooperate peacefully. When you arrive, you’ll find Flaco surrounded by his gang members. You’ll need to engage in a gunfight to survive and complete the mission. Use cover effectively and aim for headshots to take down Flaco’s men quickly.\n\nAfter defeating Flaco’s gang, you’ll have a one-on-one duel with Flaco himself. This duel follows the game’s standard dueling mechanics. To win, wait for the reticle to shrink and then press the trigger to fire. Timing is crucial, as firing too early or too late will result in missing your shot or being shot by Flaco. Once you defeat Flaco, you can loot his body to obtain Flaco’s Revolver. This weapon will now be added to your inventory and can be customized at any gunsmith.\n\nOne common challenge players face during this mission is the difficulty of the gunfight and duel. Flaco’s gang members are well-armed and aggressive, so it’s important to come prepared. Stock up on health tonics, Dead Eye tonics, and ammunition before heading to the cabin. Additionally, using Dead Eye during the duel can make it easier to land a precise shot on Flaco. If you’re struggling with the duel mechanics, practice with other duels in the game to improve your timing and accuracy.\n\nFlaco’s Revolver is a powerful weapon with good accuracy and damage, making it a solid choice for players who prefer revolvers. Its unique design also makes it a standout piece in your collection. Keep in mind that this weapon cannot be obtained again if you miss it during the mission, so make sure to loot Flaco’s body before leaving the area. Once you have the revolver, you can customize it at a gunsmith to improve its performance or change its appearance.\n\nIn summary, to get Flaco’s Revolver, start the Gunslinger mission in Valentine, track down Flaco Hernandez in the Grizzlies East, defeat his gang, win the duel, and loot the revolver from his body. Prepare for a tough fight, use Dead Eye to your advantage, and enjoy this unique weapon as a reward for your efforts.
