===Cypra Mundi "Irontalon" Pattern===
Produced on the [[Segmentum Fortress]] of [[Cypra Mundi]], these are standard with [[Imperial Navy]] officers in the region. They are shorter in range than a standard Autopistol but use fragmenting ammunition that's highly effective against human targets.{{Fn|1814f}}
===Drexian pattern===
Cancellor of the [[Darkand]] planet was armed by this pattern.{{Fn|17}}
 
===Dorcas Pattern Trophy Stub Automatic===
The '''Dorcas Pattern Trophy Stub Automatic''' is awarded to many [[Calixis Sector|Calixian]] regiments as a commendation for valour in the face of foes. Soldiers can be given a century old relic Dorcas taken from the battlefields of the [[Second Insurrection of Cantus]], or, more likely, a more modern copy.{{Fn|14g}}

===Hax-Orlock Puritan-14 Execution Pistol===
The '''Hax-Orlock Puritan-14 Execution Pistol''' is a squat dual-barrelled autopistol with an integral single [[Shotgun#Shotgun ammo|shotgun cartridge]] chamber. Designed for covert kill squads, it is wielded by the [[Adeptus Arbites]] and the [[Magistratum]] [[Crimson Sashes]] of [[Sibellus]]. Some copies can also be found on the black market.{{Fn|14b}}
===Hecuter autopistol{{Fn|10}}===
===Hecuter 9/5 Heavy Combat Autopistol===
A copy of another famed design manufactured by the Orthlack of Gunmetal and often regarded with some justification as a “prince among pistols”, Hecuter is tooled and balanced to exact tolerances, making it quite controllable despite its large calibre for an autopistol. Its clip projects somewhat from the angled grip, giving the weapon a distinctive profile, while despite its size, its excellent design makes it an “easy carry” from shoulder rigs and quick-draw holsters.{{Fn|1414a}}
===Ironhead Autopistol===
===Khayer-Addin Forge “Fate Bringer” Long Pistol===
This elegant and perfectly balanced stub revolver is deceptively simple in design and exquisitely well-made from the finest materials. Its lack of clip capacity and slightly ungainly size make it a poor choice for real combat in the eyes of some, but The Fate Bringer is perfectly suited to the role of a duelling piece and also makes for a good target and assassination pistol.{{Fn|1414a}}
===Lugos Hi-Power autopistol===
The autopistol is used as a sidearm by the [[Orphratean Purebred]]{{Fn|30a}} as well as [[Inquisitor]]s{{Fn|30b}} and high ranking officers of the [[Astra Militarum]].{{Fn|30c}}
 
===Lyndwyrm A-25A “Volcano” Autopistol===
The '''Lyndwyrm A-25A “Volcano” Autopistol''' is produced by one of the biggest weapons manufacturer in the [[Calixis Sector]], Lyndwyrm Amoury. Rivalling the a [[The Lathes|Lathe]] product in quality, the Volcano almost never jams or misfires and is renowned for its reliability. The firearm can fire both semi and full-automatic, switchable via fire selector.{{Fn|18}}
 
===Orthlack Mark IV Thollos Autopistol===
The Orthlack Mark IV Thollos Autopistol is produced by the Orthlack Fane of [[Gunmetal City]] and serves as a backup weapon for [[Calixis Sector|Calixian]] line officers, who, if they come from an old military family, often present their sons and daughters a commemoratively inscribed Thollos upon their first commission. The gun is favoured over most regulation firearms based on its greater stopping power.{{Fn|14g}}
 
===Panoptic 0-5 Automata Pistol===
The '''Panoptic 0-5 Automata Pistol''' is constructed as part of an aspiring [[tech-priest]]s trial under instructions of a [[The Lathes|Lathe]] [[Myrmidon]]. After being assembled out of a random, incomplete pattern, most finished Panoptics are sacrificed on the plasma-fire altars of the [[Machine God]]. Afterwards, many tech-priests continue to produce the Panoptic to better their skills and to meditate. These weapons are than used by the tech-priests themselves or are gifted to favourite servants. Sometimes, they are even purchasable.{{Fn|14e}}
===Sulymann Encarmine Service Autopistol===
A sophisticated autopistol no larger than the average compact [[stub gun]] the Encarmine packs a lot of firepower into a relatively small frame, sacrificing stopping power for a reduction in size and increase in clip capacity. Unfortunately the weapon lacks the kick to deal with heavy armour, limiting its use. It is widely carried for personal defence and as a sidearm by “second liners”, such as plainclothes enforcers, hauler rig crews and merchants’ factors.{{Fn|1414a}} ===Sulymann Holdout “Salvation” Auto===The '''Sulymann Holdout “Salvation” Auto''' is a compact handgun that serves as a personal defence items for merchants, adepts and wealthy citizens untrained in weaponry. Self-contained and easy to use the Salvations internal magazine can only be reloaded by partially dismantling the weapon itself.{{Fn|14c}} ===Talon Mark III Short Autopistol===The '''Talon Mark III Short Autopistol''' is a common pattern of a fully automatic pistol that fires medium calibre careless rounds. It is produced to a high standard by the Sulymann Fane of [[Gunmetal City]]. Due to its easy maintenance, its high rate of fire and its easy usage in confined spaces the weapon is popular with [[Enforcer (Security Force)|enforcers]] and hive scum alike.{{Fn|14d}}
===Tronsvasse Hi-Power autopistol===
===Tzarina autopistol===
An autopistol issued to the [[Enforcer (Alecto Security Force)|Enforcers]] of [[Hive World]] [[Alecto_(Hive World)|Alecto]].{{Fn|25}}
 
===Volg “Ripper Clip” Autopistol===
The '''Volg “Ripper Clip” Autopistol '''is a bulky autopistol that is purposely designed to be as cheap as possible to maintain. It is manufactured out of industrial spares and crude pressed metal parts. Instead of caseless ammo, the Ripper Clip uses basic stub rounds that are loaded in a vertical strip that is wrenched trough the gun by the act of firing. This also creates a distinctive loud banging-rattle which ends in a clatter as the spend strip is discarded to the ground.{{Fn|14c}}

*Cyclic rate of fire: 900 rpm
