Alyx is a fairly good shot, but she must not be left to deal with with too many enemies by herself, as she can be overwhelmed and killed. In Half-Life: Alyx, Alyx acquires the gun in its initial form ( Para-Ordnance LDA) from Russell. When she is not using it, she places it inside her jacket. Alyx appears to have unlimited ammunition for this weapon, possibly due to her being a NPC.

In Half Life 2 and its episodes, Alyx is the only NPC ever observed using this weapon, and the player never acquires it in normal gameplay. Though it is unknown what kind of ammunition it fires, it does roughly the same amount of damage as the USP Match.
