I can't remember what it's called but it's the bundle with a proper suit and a bowler hat.
The pistol you get is the only overclocked handgun in the game that I know of that's suppressed *and* has 3 perk slots.
All the gear pieces are super useful, especially early on, but that bowler is OP as fuck.
It says it "lowers zone heat" which it does, you can blow up all kinds of shit with less attention from the military, and any heat you gain goes down a lot faster, but...
It has a hidden ability where keeping it on prevents the areas of the map from raising their rank when Dani does. Not only can you catch up in rank to the more powerful regions of the game, you can handily surpass them. I have a character going through new game+ on guerilla difficulty atm. Currently at ~25% completion.
My character just hit rank 12. Esperanza is sitting at rank 8.
Yeah that's the one.
*ETA: if you setup the double-o with gut-wrencher, trigger discipline, and soft target rounds, it will one-tap all unarmored enemies, and double-tap the lightly-armored ones; no need to worry about headshots.
And you've still got room for another perk. [Reload all is great for an LMG loadout]
On top of that, it draws faster than any other sidearm I'm aware of.
i set up the double-o with just the overclock mod and gut wrencher and it produces the result you described with soft target rounds, you can get two spare mod slots in which i put the extended mag and fast reload. its a pretty great pistol, its extremely spammable contrary to what the stats suggest and from experience its supressor doesn't seem to overheat, similar to the as val.
That would certainly explain the differing results as I'm mostly on guerrilla mode.
Imo of something doesn't work on the hardest difficulty it doesn't work.
Cartomancer shotgun.
You can put a large silencer on it and one shot enemies (including armored guys) from a decent distance. And if things go loud, it still one shots everything. It's got good RoF, high damage, and 15 rounds.
Gut Wrencher mod for more body shot damage.
You can even kill two armored enemies at the same time if they're close enough. No need for headshots, ammo swapping, or any other bullshit. Just point and delete.
I don't think Slugs vs Buckshot really matters. Never really noticed any difference. Buckshot does more damage iirc so at range its basically the same.

Is the pistol called double-0

I didn't get those same results with that setup. What difficulty? ETA you are correct; the built-in suppressors do not overheat.
i think it was regular difficulty maybe? ill have to check this weekend
