Like other Fortnite weapons, the Lock On Pistol can be found as floor loot or inside chests. Its Rare rarity makes it relatively common, though finding it might still require some diligent chest hunting.

Fishing at Fishing Spots with a Fishing Rod also offers a decent chance of acquiring a Rare weapon, including the Lock On Pistol. Fishing Spots increase your odds of finding Rare items.
