 Yes, there is no gun at all

 Yes, there is no gun at all who can do such damage. Only Exeptions : Jakobs Masher that can go til 300x7 (to my knowledge), Jakobs Skullmasher (sniper rifle) that can go over 300x6 and Some rocketLauncher that can go 1000 something damge x3.

Furthermore either a revolver is one bullet either it is damage x7 That's it.

I have a Jakobs Masher that's

I have a Jakobs Masher that's around 330x7 which I'm pretty sure is legit. 2-round clip, no scope, special parts, etc. Looked at it in WillowTree and everything seems as it should. It doesn't have any elemental or anything like that either, but when it hits something (say a lvl 50 zombie) center mass, it literally blows it backward a pretty good distance.

Funny thing, I played around with it a bit in different stages...added a scope first, then gave it ammo regen, then a bigger magazine and a blade, just to mess around with it (made sure to dupe the original a few times in case I messed anything up - definitely want to keep all my real guns), and each tweak dropped the damage rating lower, so it ended up being around 270x7. So I technically modded my gun to be weaker, just with a bunch of little extras.

-edit-

The gun I was talking about is actually called a Jakobs Savage Unforgiven, but everything else about it is accurate.

cool patrick that you take

cool patrick that you take the time and challenge yourself with such a project, I am sure it is a very interesting procedure to build or alter weaps.

Bout that hacked chimera I picked up, upon close examination I could see that the revolver did not have all of its parts. I dumped it in a solo game last night and then exited the game. Too boring playing solo with it because of its unreal power and certainly no place for it in open online games.

It's just something else to

It's just something else to do to get a little extra enjoyment out of the game. I don't really have any desire to have any super-powered weapons for regular use, or anything that's elemental and shoots 20 rof or something like that. Just lags the game. And if it doesn't do lag, it's still annoying to watch someone running around using them and killing everything before you can get a shot off.

As fate would have it I

As fate would have it I finally found a legit chimera last night, 1st time ever. This is after months of playing this game. The weapon is kinda naked (no scope and only a 2 shot clip) however it is very cool that multy elements are fired. Somewhere in the 700s damage (and +120% damage in the specs) Weap has a carded value of on mid $200,000 unlike the crux that I have that has a carded value of about $1.4 million really the ultimate super (and legit) shotgun.

Chimera is an atlas revolver. I note that I read somewhere on this website  that chimera was the only revolver produced by atlas. Gonna have to disagree there because I also found an atlas x2 corrosive revolver also last night (pretty weak revolver). 

Still P.O. about giving up my ogre for the modded chimera, the guy emailed an apology to me but did not return the rifle. Whatever move'n on.

Why not just meet up with him

Why not just meet up with him in an online match and duplicate it by having him drop it then dashboard out of the game? You get your weapon back and he gets to keep it too.

I think it was FrankWest that

I think it was FrankWest that said something like that as well. I am ps3 and don't know if that is possible (do you know if it is) and then I don't know the steps either. If it is possible I would contact him (phillsbirds, the lucky recipient of my ogre) and ask.

Oh ok, I don't play on PS3 so

Oh ok, I don't play on PS3 so I'm not sure if it works the same way. But theoretically as long as he exits without saving his game (i.e. turn off the console) then his game should reload from the last save point, at which point he'd have his copy of the gun still.

If it were to work, the steps would just be this: You both meet up in-game, away from a save point (New U included). He drops the gun, you pick it up, he exits the game without saving. You save your game and get your gun, he loads his save and should still have his copy of the same gun.
