Pistol **[PISTOL]** and **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** are identical for all rules purposes.
Units containing one or more models with a **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** weapon can shoot using **close-quarters shooting** (10.06). When using another **shooting type**, for each model in that unit (excluding **MONSTER/VEHICLE** models), you can only select one of the following to make attacks with:
- One or more of its **[CLOSE-QUARTERS]** weapons.
- One or more of its other ranged weapons.
Ignores Cover Each time an attack is made with an **[IGNORES COVER]** weapon, the target cannot have the **benefit of cover** against that attack (13.08), including from rules that give a model or unit the **benefit of cover** (e.g. **Stealth**).
