While the bolt pistol is a feared and respected sidearm across the Imperium, it is a temperamental weapon, prone to jamming if cared for improperly. While this normally is not a problem for military organizations such as the Imperial Guard or Adepta Sororitas or the well-connected such as rich noblemen, it is an especially dangerous problem for the Adeptus Arbites or other law enforcers, whose long-range patrols or undercover assignments may leave them without adequate supplies. Weapon jams at a critical moment are responsible for the deaths of many Arbitrators across the Calixis Sector. In an attempt to remedy this problem, the Westingkrup Fane has designed a bolt weapon based on one of the most ancient and time-tested designs in human history: the revolver.

The Ranger-pattern bolt pistol is a massive revolver chambered to fire .75 caliber bolt shells. Its blocky, solid adamantium frame is far from beautiful, but it is capable of withstanding tremendous punishment, both from adverse weather and the fierce recoil of the bolt rounds. While its rate of fire is lesser than a conventional bolt pistol, it is far more durable and will fire under even the most hostile of conditions. While some elements of the Adeptus Mechanicus have frowned on what they view as a cheapening of the holy bolter, the Adeptus Arbites is much more accepting of the Ranger-pattern, with many Arbitrators trading in their automatic bolt pistols for the solid, reliable revolver.
