The Infinity is the Legendary
The Infinity is the Legendary Vladof pistol. It can drop from Doc Mercy, who appears both in the Threehorn Valley and Digistruct Peak.
The Infinity does not consume ammo, and has a magazine size of one. It has decent damage and fire rate stats, but lower than that of a comparable Anarchist pistol. Additionally, to compensate for the infinite ammo and magazine size, the weapon has a unique spread pattern that makes it tougher to get consistent damage with.

The Anarchist has approximately 18.5% more damage than the Infinity with the community patch, and a ~26.7% higher fire rate with the community patch. Reload speed is something that Infinity will always win on, and that's why its theoretical dps is relatively competitive. When using Zer0's action skill however, you will almost always have time to reload. This makes reload speed less of an important feature for Zer0 in specific, who happens to be the best user of the Infinity pistol.
The pistol does synergize very well with Zer0's One Shot One Kill, Precision, Rising Shot, and other skills, but it doesn't synergize as well with his action skill as other weapons with higher damage can.
The community patch tightens the spread significantly, which is extremely helpful for the weapon's practical output- especially on characters other Zer0 which have a harder time boosting accuracy.
Overall, the Infinity is an overrated pistol for every thing that it is recommended for it. Zer0's Sniper, Melee, and Shotgun builds all easily outclass it as far as mobbing speed, even when using the Bee. Even when compared only to other pistols, it is far behind the Ladyfist, other high tier Vladof pistols with higher damage, and some non unique pistols as well.
Because of Hyperion SMGs and their laser accuracy- I'd imagine that they actually synergize better with Zer0 than does the Infinity pistol. The Infinity is a better option with Zer0 than rocket launchers are. After the general AR buffs and the specific AR buffs in the community patch, the Infinity is now a worse option than many ARs on Zer0, too. Before the community patch, it was ahead of many ARs, but not all.
The Infinity is certainly a viable option, but it is far behind other options. It doesn't suck, because it is viable, but it does definitely suck in comparison to a wide variety of different weapons on Zer0.
