			The Megapol Lawpistol is Apocalypse's basic pistol weapon. Like its [[Pistol\|counterpart]] in EU, the Lawpistol is fairly potent - it does more damage per shot than the [[Marsec M4000 Machine Gun]] - but has a small clip size.

	~~== Stats ==~~		In real-time mode, the Lawpistol is one of the better starting weapons, as it has a high ROF and can be dual-wielded with no loss of accuracy; only the [[Megapol Auto Cannon\|Auto Cannon]] loaded with HE rounds has better on-target DPS. The main caveat on its use is the scarcity of its ammunition, which prevents the player from simply handing them out to the whole squad. Do remember that the Lawpistol ''will'' lose accuracy if the other hand contains a two-handed weapon.
	[[~~Image:~~Lawpistol ~~(UFOpaedia)~~.~~png~~\|~~frame\|Lawpistol~~]]
	==~~= Lawpistol =~~==		In turn-based mode, the Lawpistol is generally outperformed by the [[Marsec M4000 Machine Gun\|M4000]] due to TU truncation and the irrelevance of dual-wielding. It does remain useful for hybrids, as they will frequently fall below 45 TU due to their lower base TU and Strength stats, and hence be able to perform 1-TU autoshots.
