The Brawler pistol was a single-shot heat sink-based block-fed heavy pistol manufactured by Armax Arsenal. Manufactured and entering service in 2118 CE, the Brawler pistol was meant for use by the Hierarchy Armed Forces, specifically the Armiger Legion, due to its high stopping power and consistent rate of fire. By 2132 CE, the Brawler became commercially available to the public and became a weapon of choice in many PMCs and security corporations where, despite being more expensive than other pistols, it was extremely popular due to its capability to make even the strongest krogan think twice. The pistol could fire a single shot per second and while its recoil was virtually non-existent, its accuracy sat in the mid-range, with each round hitting with extremely high impact, capable of instant penetration for most low to mid-end armors. The weapon was, in design, succeeded by the M-6 Carnifex following the introduction of thermal clips in 2184 CE, which replaced block-fed weapons wholesale across the entire galaxy following the Battle of the Citadel. The Pugio III is the Hierarchy's direct successor to the Brawler, standard issue amongst all turian special forces.
