Since Commissars have been {{Blam}}-ing Guardsmen ever since the end of the Horus Heresy, of course they'd eventually make a Bolt Pistol out of the routine.

Wielded by a succession of brutal, uncompromising Commissars, this masterwork Bolt Pistol is feared by all. The elementary but bloodthirsty Machine Spirit of the ''Emperor's Benediction'' has been [[Blam|blam]]ed for a series of unfortunate "accidents" on the field of battle. For something that belongs in the higher side of the quality spectrum, it is unlikely that the Bolt Pistol is unreliable where the firing mechanism is concerned. Without a doubt, popping countless Guardsmen on the head have taught the pistol a thing or two about putting self-propelled rockets into the craniums. In spite of this rather unfortunate development for the people bound to be by the end of its barrel, the Officio Prefectus unsurprisingly views the ''Emperor’s Benediction'' as an artifact of some distinction – some even say that it can taste cowardice even before the reprehensible act has been committed. What this most likely means is that the damn Bolt Pistol randomly fires on its own, exclusively when it is conveniently pointed at someone, and that someone usually turns out to be on the list of potential persons for the Commissar to shoot at when needed. In 8th Edition, its tendency to {{Blam}} people is so strong that it overlaps to specific enemies as well, no matter the range unless something else happens to be too close to it.

So, there we have it – the ''Emperor's Benediction'', a pistol that any Commissar can enjoy shooting with.
