Stealth Kills with the Silencer

The Last of Us Part II - Military Pistol Silencer

The Military Pistol, like the Semi-Auto Pistol, can be equipped with a silencer, making it suitable for stealth. Since the Military Pistol has low damage, always aim for headshots when going for stealth kills.

Use against Weaker Enemies

Due to its low damage, use the Military Pistol against enemies that don't have a lot of health such as Runners and humans. Even against Runners and humans, it may take several body shots using the Military Pistol, so try to aim for headshots whenever possible.

Since the Military Pistol doesn't have a lot of firepower, it is necessary to always aim for headshots. Upgrading stability reduces hand tremors, making it easier to aim for the head.
