Fortnite Hunters' Chapter 6 has launched with exciting new additions: a sprawling map, powerful Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and challenging bosses. The season continues to unfold, introducing unique items and features.

Winterfest's conclusion marked Fortnite Hunters' first major update, bringing back unvaulted Chapter 4 items. While the Kinetic Blade is attracting attention, many players are eager to master 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 for a guaranteed find.

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

How To Use The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol functions as a semi-automatic weapon, dealing 25 damage per hit. 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 works even on gliding players or those hidden in bushes, but it's limited to a 50-meter range. Hip-firing is also possible, but you'll lose the lock-on advantage.
