The NS-1999 Party Pistol is a Nanite Systems sidearm available only during the New Year event.

Functionally, the Party Pistol is a sawed off double barrel shotgun, although a very underwhelming one in that regard. It can fire twice before reloading. Keeping in the theme of the weapon, each shot plays the sound of a party horn and launches a spread of bullets with paper streamer-like tracers, accompanied by a burst of confetti at the muzzle of the weapon.

The Party Pistol is severely handicapped by its spread, low damage, low velocity, abysmal magazine capacity, and projectile drop. It can only reasonably kill an infantry target by landing two headshots in rapid succession while in melee range if used as a primary weapon. Needless to say, this is exceptionally difficult to put into practice if the target isn't being given a "surprise party."
