Every weapon listed

As a detailed military shooter, the game lets you inflict ailments with six types of weapons – assault rifles, shotguns, bolt-action rifles, pistols, knives, and grenades. It features a novel injury system that sets it apart from Call of Duty and Escape from Tarkov. Guns are obtained from faction vendors like Gunny, the environment, and looted from defeated enemies. If you’re low on funds, resort to the last two options. Expect to grind through missions for better weapons. Here’s a list of every weapon in the game.

A list of all the weapons in the game.

All Assault Rifles

Assault rifles use 5.45x39mm, 5.56x45mm, and 7.62x39mm ammunition. They’re great for both close-range and medium-range combat. Just remember to target vital areas like the head and chest to deal maximum damage with rifles like the AK-47. Hits to other body parts will only result in minor bleeding. Customize your rifles in your inventory to gain an edge in battle. For some weapons, adding a scope attachment involves removing the carrying handle. Here are all the assault rifles in the game:

  • AKM
  • AKMN
  • AKMS
  • AKMSN
  • AK-74M
  • AK-74N
  • M4A1
  • MK18 (Based on the Daniel Defense MK 18)
  • CQ A1 (Based on the CQ-A rifle)

All Shotguns

Shotguns are your close-range specialists. These use 12GA buckshot or slugs in the game. They’re great because the spread of pellets lets them hit vital areas easily if you’re close to an enemy. Shotguns aren’t as customizable as assault rifles though. Here are all the shotguns so far:

  • Mossberg 590
  • Remington Model 870 (M870)

All Bolt-Action Rifles

If you fancy some long-range action, pick up one of the bolt-action rifles. While the ones you pick up in combat won’t have the best scopes, you can fit them with new ones you find. And since these tend to have a poor fire rate, make each shot count. The AI isn’t very accurate at long distances, making these great weapon choices for Lamang Island’s arenas. And with single shots to the head or chest, you can down enemies quickly. Pair these rifles with the 762-SD Suppressor to stay undetected. Here are the bolt-action rifles you can use:

  • SKS
  • Mosin (Based on the Mosin M38 Carbine)
  • M700 (Based on the Remington Model 700)

All Pistols

Pistols and sidearms use 7.62x25mm, 7.65x17mm, or 9x19mm ammo in the game. They’re an affordable secondary choice if you happen to die a lot. You can use it to take some enemies down before looting them for better primary gear. But don’t expect them to work well against distant foes. Here are all the pistols in the game:

  • Glock 17
  • Type 51 (Based on the TT-33 pistol)
  • Sa vz. 61 Skorpion SMG

All Melee weapons

While I wouldn’t advise walking into a gunfight with a melee weapon, they’re great in a pinch. If you’re fresh out of ammo, you can dash towards an enemy to finish them off. Remember that you’ll have to aim for vital areas as knife slashes aren’t great in this game. I wasn’t able to kill an enemy even with three stab attacks. Here’s the sole melee weapon at the moment:

  • Ka-Bar Knife

All Grenades

Grenades are a good offensive choice against a bunch of enemies holed up behind cover. While the smoke grenade can hide your tracks and make it harder for foes to hit you, I prefer the standard M67 grenade for its damage potential. It has a decent chance of striking the vital spots on your enemies. As an Early Access title, expect balance changes and more weapons to arrive with time. Here are all the grenades you can expect to find:

  • M18 Smoke
  • M67
  • RGD-5
