Duke Mk.44

"Slow to shoot but brutal on impact."

The Duke Mk.44 is a legendary hand cannon featured in Destiny. The weapon inflicts heavy damage to targets as compensation for the slow fire rate.

Other than what was shown in the live demo, little is known about this weapon, as it was shown only briefly in the Activision booth on the E3 show floor.

Trivia

 * The weapon was initially featured as a special weapon used by Joe Staten in the E3 2013 Sony press conference, but hand cannons have since been reassigned to the primary weapons slot.
