1. See Damage Increases by Size to calculate the damage for a weapon larger than Medium or smaller than Small.
2. Weight figures are for Medium weapons. A Small weapon weighs half as much, and a Large weapon weighs twice as much.
3. When two types are given, the weapon is both types if the entry specifies "and", either type (player's choice at time of attack) if the entry specifies "or", or each end of the double weapon is a different type if the entry specifies "/".
4. The hp value given is for Medium armor, weapons, and shields. Divide by 2 for each size category of the item smaller than Medium, or multiply it by 2 for each size category larger than Medium.

A hypo pistol is a hypodermic administering and delivery system for various drugs. It contains a needle placement and hand-activated trigger. Hypo pistols can load small cartridges called hypo canisters, which deplete with three uses. An Exotic Weapon Proficiency feat can make you proficient in using the hypo pistol as a weapon. Despite the name, a hypo pistol does not shoot its payload at range. Attacking with a hypo pistol is a melee attack. The pistol must be pressed to the target's body before the contents can be injected with a pull of the trigger. Value 300 gp; weight 3 lb.
