Fortnite Hunters' Chapter 6 has arrived, bringing a massive map, formidable Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and challenging bosses. New content continues to roll out, adding exciting items and features.

Winterfest's conclusion marks Fortnite Hunters' first major update, reviving some Chapter 4 favorites. While the Kinetic Blade is attracting attention, many players are keen to acquire the Lock On Pistol – a weapon designed for pinpoint accuracy.

How To Get The Lock On Pistol

Like other Fortnite weapons, the Lock On Pistol can be found as floor loot or inside chests. Its Rare rarity makes it relatively common, though you might need to search several chests to find one.

Fishing at Fishing Spots with a Fishing Rod also offers a good chance of obtaining a Rare weapon, including the Lock On Pistol. Fishing Spots increase your odds of finding Rare items.

How To Use The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol functions as a semi-automatic weapon, dealing 25 damage per shot. Its unique feature is its lock-on capability. While aiming down sights, a circle appears around your reticle. Any target within this circle will be automatically hit, provided they aren't using cover.

This lock-on functionality even works on gliding players or those hidden in bushes. However, the effective range is limited to 50 meters, requiring close-quarters combat. Hip-firing is also possible, but you'll lose the lock-on advantage.

Here's a quick summary of the Lock On Pistol's stats:
