It can be found in Golden Airdrops and an Arctic Crate which drops 3 Arctic Avenger skins and Dual OTs-38 as a single drop.

Strategies

 * Most strategies with the OT-38 work with the OTs-38, but the suppressed version's bullet fade can be used at a distance with a medium scope.
 * This can also be used to bait, because of its rarity.
 * Similar to its non-suppressed counterpart, dual-wielding it can be used somewhat closer to a DMR.

Countering

Trivia

 * Despite the update log saying that the OTs-38 can only be found in Golden Airdrops, they also spawn in Arctic Crates.
 * It's one of the four suppressed weapons in the game, with the AWM-S being first, the M4A1-S being second and the CZ-3A1 being third. This is the fourth suppressed gun in the game.
 * It's the second gun in the game to be a variant of an existing gun, with the Vector being first.
 * In this case, the OTs-38 is a suppressed, higher damage version of the OT-38.
 * It's the first Pistol in the game which the dual-wield version can drop as a single item.
 * Real-life OT-38 doesn't exist, but not the OTs-38.
 * Real-life OTs-38 does not have a suppressor but is silent due to usage of special cartridges (which aren't interchangeable with normal 7.62 rounds) where powder gases are contained after shot. As a result, bullet velocity is quite small and the weapon isn't really battlefield grade.
 * Real-life OTs-38 fires from lower revolver chamber (rather than upper) which may improve accuracy. What appears to be barrel on the top is actually a socket for laser sight.
 * This weapon is a controversial addition for the Surviv.io player-base, as due to being based on the OT-38, the OTs-38 is regarded by many as the worst Golden Airdrop weapon in the game, as this shares many strengths and weaknesses of the OT-38.
 * Because of this, many want this weapon to be removed from the drop list in the Golden Airdrops.

Special Held Sprite
In the "" update, Gold Air Drop weapons like the AWM-S, M249, M1 Garand received a new sprite when held. This also applies for the later-added OTs-38. The new sprite for the OTs-38 is detailed and is not a stick which separates the OTs-38's look from other pistols.
