About the Maggie:
The Maggie is a Legendary Weapon in Borderlands 3. This is the hardest hitting Jakobs Pistol that deals pure damage. The Maggie fires 6 projectiles per shot and has a fast reload speed. This Masher-style pistol will out-perform most revolvers if you compare the damage output, however, it will do so at the cost of its accuracy. The Maggie is great for close to mid-range combat.

Trivia:
- The Maggie is a returning weapon from Borderlands 2 & The Pre-Sequel.
- Unlike most legendary weapons, the name and flavor text are not a pop-culture reference but instead draw from in-game lore. “Monty” refers to Montgomery Jakobs, the founder of the Jakobs corporation; his wife was named Maggie, as mentioned in at least one Echo log found on the Family Jewel.
