Where to get Hand Cannon in Fortnite

To get your hands on the Hand Cannon in Fortnite, you’ll need to find the weapon as floor loot, in chests, and dropped from eliminated opponents around the Battle Royale map.

The Deagle’s locations are spread out all across the Island as part of the normal loot pool and it is available in three rarities of Rare, Epic and Legendary. The fastest way to obtain the Hand Cannon would be to land from the Battle Bus at any of the main named POIs on the map that are filled with chests.

The Hand Cannon has a slow fire rate, but packs a punch with its high damage. This makes it useful to catch your opponents by surprise with your first shot and then quickly switch to a higher fire rate weapon to finish the job.

You can also upgrade the Hand Cannon even further by heading to a nearby bunker to mod it using Weapon Mods.
