These stats are very good for a weapon of this caliber. The Broken Butterfly also comes with the penetration power bonus. This allows bullets fired from the weapon to travel through enemies, allowing you to kill multiple foes at once if they are lined up. When you purchase the weapon, you will need 6 slots in your inventory to hold it. Make sure to purchase the weapon during chapter 6 to get your hands on the magnum ammo recipe for free – a nice bonus for those who want to save some money in the game.
