The Thor .45-70 was Liquid Ocelot's preferred handgun, rather than Revolver Ocelot's own preference for the Single Action Army.
It is called a "Hand Rifle" in hunting. The 500-grain (32.4g) .45-70 round it fires has a muzzle velocity of 1500 feet per second (500m/s) and has incredible power for a pistol - it can eliminate guards in one shot, regardless of hit location. But the gun's power comes at a price, in the forms of heavy recoil and a single-bullet capacity.
Liquid Ocelot used the Thor .45-70 in 2014, Eastern Europe, with which he destroyed the remains of Big Boss (actually Solidus Snake).
