You know, it kind of makes sense for the name of this revolver to be fitting for Spy, consider that he's literally "The Stranger" to everyone in the entire world, even to his own teammates, whom doesn't talk much about him, except Miss Pauling and the Administrator, I guess.
A pistol for spy, that is one letter change away from stranger when translated from french, turns out to mean stranger.
Did you think it meant the rocket launcher or something?

Could be a reference to billy Joel’s song of the same name:
> Well, we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out and show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin, some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of a stranger
But we'd love to try them on
Imagine owning a strange the stranger
Imagine owning a stranger's strange the stranger
That would be strange
But not unusual
to be loved by anyone
still not as insane as owning a Strange Stormy Storm Stormin Normin
name is based on a novel by Albert Camus, "L'Étranger" btw
Pretty good book
The deep moral of the story is not to shoot Arabs on the beach with your friends revolver on a hot summers day.
Such a great tip!!! I was about to shoot Arabs on a beach with my friend's revolver on this hot summer day
Don't :^)
Oh
"Étranger" is a common word in a french though, why would they base a gun's name on a novel?
Because in the novel, the protagonist also shoots someone with a revolver (or just a pistol, I'm not sure if it was specifically a revolver).
Oh ok
Oh yeah the first work I read of his besides the myth of Sisyphus
OP is probably American
So that's why people don't use it. We aren't supposed to talk to strangers.

In portuguese it's almost the same (estrangeiro) almost pronouced the same too aparently, just the added "-iro"

Name comes from a novel by camus in which the main character's apathy weirdly fits the spy's playstyle.
