Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure there isn't an actual reason the revolver/tranq gun uses secondary ammo. Setting either to use primary ammo doesn't break anything in my testing and would mean I wouldn't have to ship a custom item schema to not have them share reserve ammo with secondary stock weapons. For context, I'm working on dmkit which is Vscript that lets mapmakers give player weapons amongst other things.
#Use primary ammo for revolver/tranq gun (technical)

I mean, must be leftover code from base tf2, since the game registers the revolver as a secondary, not as a primary
i am a big fan of anything but the current internals of the stock revolver
valve basically just changed the weapon's bucket and called it a day lol
i'm a big supporter of changing the ammo type to primary
Honestly yes please it would make certain things so much easier in the long run. It's decently easy to translate a pistol into a revolver anyway.
it was to make room for the tranq (no not the tf2c one)
Oh yeah OP also applies to the tranq, but I haven’t tested if changing the ammo type breaks it.
