Do you can complete SR:TT with only one gun?

I always had this thought and would be pretty cool to see if someone could complete SR:TT with only using 1 weapon.
It could be funny if there was even a speedrun about it, "1 weapon throught steelport" and its just you using one single weapon, hard, no grenades and only headshots.

Kinda sounds hard but i dont doubt that anyone in this site cannot do it, cuz i think its even a "simple task" to do. I would try to do it but i have a potato laptop and whenever i want to record something it just crashes

Just imagine the pain of doing every single thing with a bat or the squid rocket launcher
 
You just can't some mission force you to use the rocket launcher and then the mcmanus 2015. You can use only one weapon through out freeroam
 
Apart from forced weapon missions, I just use the K-1 Cobra and never touch the rest of my weapon wheel.

NR4 in the first two games.

Whatever the police pistol was in SRIV

Whatever the police pistol was in the Reboot

And the Crossbow pistol in GOH

(Dual Wield where applicable)

I didn't like dual wield in sr3 bc of one gun not having recoil animation while standing still. But I love the police pistol I made it full auto and the thing is a beast lol
 
An interesting proposal for a challenge run! I suppose the next best thing would be to only use your chosen weapon(s) whenever the game allows you to, and breeze through the other parts where the game doesn't allow you to use them with a minigun, etc.

SR:TT, I don't believe it's possible, given the other users' posts in this thread.

Irrelevant side notes from me here; SR2, at a push, it's maybe possible, minus the final mission and THAT mission with an old mutual friend of ours. SR1? Definitely. Done it twice, once with the Pimp Cane and once with the RPG Launcher, from start to finish, all recorded. Very stressful runs, though, especially during those car chases.

Without modding some mission scripts, I doubt SR:TT would be very viable for weapon-based runs unless one's chosen weapons were used on an intermittent basis, as far as the game allows.

I've dabbled in modding the SR games, not SR:TT but I have done with 1 and 2; you could lump all weapons into the same category (pistols, shotguns, etc.) as the next best thing via modding them and see if you're able to beat the game that way (unsure if The Third uses a weapons.xtbl file for weapon data like the first two games do?). Might be possible, though I'd expect some bugs here and there.
