I opened factoriopedia and didcovered that pistol have ridiculous rocket capacity.
From factoriopedia:
Stack size: 5
Rocket capacity: 10000 (5k stacks)
Looks like either a cheat/easter egg or just a bug.
(No I'm not trying to ship pistols, I want to signal a spaceship presense by requesting a pistol with specific quality. And got unstable request. It appears once per second and disappears instantly. Turns out the pistol have very high rocket capacity.)
