	A '''pistol''' is a [[firearm]] designed to be portable enough to be operated with one hand. Sometimes, but not always, distinguished from a '''revolver''' by having a {{wiki\|chamber (firearms)\|chamber}} integrated into the {{wiki\|gun barrel\|barrel}}, pistols have developed over the centuries from single shot weapons to semi-automatic guns and are widely employed as {{wiki\|~~side arm~~}}s by [[soldier]]s, [[Templars]], [[Assassins]], and [[police]] alike.
