:::Yeah, a trailer dropped October 20. Blew up the internet. There weren't any super good shots of weapons, but here's what I saw:
* A man walking a horse with a deer on its back is holding some kind of carbine (like a full size Spencer or Springfield Trapdoor that was cut down or something).
* A man leaning against a stagecoach looking at vultures pecking at a coyote corpse is holding what looks like a double-barreled shotgun.
* A gunfighter is holding a Winchester rifle.
* A shot of seven riders shows them with Colt SAAs, one with a Henry rifle, and one with a sawed-off shotgun.

One of the pre-order incentives includes a rifle dubbed ingame as the "Lancaster Varmint Rifle". (looks to be a small caliber muzzleloader): https://i.redd.it/m1thsegj01o11.jpg (Not the shotgun, but the other long gun on Arthur's back) - [[User:1morey]] October 3, 2018 3:48 PM (EST)
:Looks like some flavor of generic single shot .22 rifle that would've been more common than dirt in 1899 given everyone and their mother were making some subvariation of that basic idea. Given the name "Lancaster", I'll guess it's some ersatz version of Winchester and thus would be some variation of Winchester single shots you might be able to somewhat narrow down on. -- [[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]] 5 October, 2018 22:02 (EST)

==Weapons speculation==
So it was announced there will be over 50 weapons in the game, which means there should be quite a large selection of new firearms to use. The interesting thing is that the available screenshots and video only show weapons that were already in the previous game. Other than the mention of the "Lancaster Varmint Rifle", Rockstar have given no indication what the new firearms will be. There are quite a few possibilities. Winchester 1887, Burgess, & Spenser shotguns. For rifles, Winchester 1895, Savage 1899, Remington-Keene, Remington-Lee, Winchester-Hotchkiss, Mauser, Winchester 1890 and Colt Lightning. I'm not sure which pistols could be added, but the Colt Lightning, Remington 1875/1890, and Browning 1899 are possible choices. Maybe we could even see the 1895 Colt Machine gun? Of course a portion of the new weapons will be for melee, but I would think the majority will be firearms. Anyway, I hope at least some of what I listed appear in the game.-- [[User:Phillb36|Phillb36]] ([[User talk:Phillb36|talk]]) 23:53, 18 October 2018 (EDT)

:Mauser C96, what looks like a Winchester 1890, Springfield Trapdoor Rifle, Krag-Jorgensen Rifle, Spencer 1860 Carbine, Winchester Model 1866 Yellowboy Carbine, Henry Rifle, Double Barreled Hammer Shotguns and a Sawed off double. Looks like Lancaster is the in universe equivalent of Winchester and they're calling the Henry a Litchfield. [[User:Black Irish Paddy|Black Irish Paddy]] ([[User talk:Black Irish Paddy|talk]]) 20:43, 22 October 2018 (EDT)
::Those are all already confirmed weapons, not a big surprise here. --[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 20:50, 22 October 2018 (EDT)
:There was a video on YouTube(now since taken down) that appeared to show every weapon listed in the guide, and it was kind of disappointing. A large number of the 50 weapons are of the thrown or melee variety. Only two new firearms have been added, the Winchester 1890 & Winchester 1887. In fact, weapons from the previous game have been cut from RDR2. The Lemat, Evans, Sharps, & FN Pistol are gone. The FN getting axed isn't really a surprise but I thought the others would be carried over. The weapon count was also inflated by having 2 or 3 different versions of one gun, but classifying each one as a separate and unique. When I read there would be over 50 weapons I thought for sure there would be a wide array of firearms, but instead this is rather deceptive and there are actually less than before. Hopefully more will be added with DLC.-- [[User:Phillb36|Phillb36]] ([[User talk:Phillb36|talk]]) 22:52, 23 October 2018 (EDT)
==Lackluster weapons==
I really wished there were more weapons like the Colt Double action Lightning, Remington revolvers, Mauser Rifles, Mosin Nagant, early Lee Enfields, Martini Henry, etc. All we got are every single weapon from the first game and 2 of them are now anachronistic. At least they made the C96 accurate and not a fully automatic pistol [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] ([[User talk:Excalibur01|talk]]) 18:17, 7 November 2018 (EST)
I would have liked a Marlin 1895. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] ([[User talk:Spartan198|talk]]) 20:32, 30 December 2018 (EST)
== Weapons ==
So I saw a youtube video where a Old West enthusiast brought up seven different things he noticed in RDR II, and how accurate they were to the time (mainly focusing on clothing, the holster, weapons, and saddles.)
I brought up the fact that the Winchester 1866 seems to be an odd choice as the primary repeater in 1899. And I got a reply saying that actually, most repeaters were incredibly expensive for most people, and that people still carried percussion rifles or revolvers by the turn of the 20th century. I found that rather hard to believe. Not to say that no one did, but to say that the common person was carrying a percussion weapon by the time 1900 rolled through seems a bit of a stretch. - [[User:1morey]] November 24, 2018 9:06 PM (EST)
:First, thanks for sharing the video with us, very helpful. Second, nobody is gonna throw away a perfectly good weapon just because they have an opportunity to spent a months pay or more on a new one. Percussion caps, gunpowder and lead are cheaper than loaded cartridges and always have been, then there's the question of where to get more ammo when you need it. Just about any store dealing in firearms or general goods would stock lead, powder and caps not your new cartridge that might fail commercially or even stop being produced as did happen to a number of them over time. Lastly the percussion guns were readily available and cheap due to their continuous production since the 1830's, due to that unless you felt a need to own the latest thing and the financial means to do so you'd use what you had until it could not be used anymore.
:Cartridge firearms were introduced in the 1850's but weren't successful until the late 1860's early 1870's by 1900 most people could afford to have a cartridge gun, most not all, the poor generally had to use what was cheapest and easiest to get and supply ammunition for. The percussion guns were still around and being used because a bullet is a bullet and healthcare was still primitive enough that just about any bullet would kill. [[User:Black Irish Paddy|Black Irish Paddy]] ([[User talk:Black Irish Paddy|talk]]) 23:58, 24 November 2018 (EST)
::Thanks for the explanation. I was always under the impression that the common person (not necessarily the destitute) owned some kind of cartridge firearm. Don't know the economics of that time, but I have rarely (if ever) seen a photo taken in the 1880s-1890s of a person with a percussion firearm (On the flipside, I have seen a photo dated 1913 (I believe) with a sheriff of some unnamed town carrying a Luger in his holster). I understand the few surviving photos of that period aren't indicative of the entire population of the American west as a whole. - [[User:1morey]] November 25, 2018 9:43 AM (EST)
Do not forget that in many countries (such as the USSR), some poor people used percussion guns even in the 20th century. --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 10:33, 25 November 2018 (EST)
Kind of ties in with this discussion. Many American ammo companies manufactured black powder cartridges into the 1930's! To include some old cartridges such as the 50 caliber Spencer and the Winchester 44 Rimfire. It was the demands of World War II that brought about the demise of those old cartridges. After the war ended shooters wanted newer calibers and black powder became the domain of hobbyists. But ,until then, there were still many older firearms being carried and used by everyday people. My gun safe is full of firearms that were made over sixty and seventy years ago. They are in great shape and are more than capable of doing the job if necessary. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] ([[User talk:Jcordell|talk]]) 22:39, 27 January 2019 (EST)
Actually, I just want to add that such a formulation is initially incorrect. It is expected that guns that have been manufactured for a long time will be found much more often than newer ones, especially introduced several years ago. Especially considering the reliable design of M1866 at a rather low price (if I remember correctly, its production constantly continued at the request of many, because of this). --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 18:18, 8 July 2020 (EDT)
==Pressing trigger again to cock gun==
I found it annoying really fast that your character no longer auto cocks a gun after every shot. This made me shoot twice during fights and actually has been throwing off my aim. I understand how in the real world, most of these guns are lever actions, and pump action that requires you to actually do it, but this is a game and I don't remember the previous Red Dead doing this. I also understand why long guns not chambered back in the day would be a standard practice but why in the hell is the bolt action, a very advanced rifle, of the period not already cocked when it has all 5 rounds loaded? They animate you working the bolt on the Krag every time you take it off your shoulder. The only gun that doesn't do that is the Auto-5 [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] ([[User talk:Excalibur01|talk]]) 10:20, 25 November 2018 (EST)
I'm also calling bullshit on weapon progression. The lever action shotgun should not be unlocked after you get the Auto-5. It should be either before or after the pump action. Same with the Henry rifle because by the time you unlock it, you'd have gotten the bolt action Krag. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] ([[User talk:Excalibur01|talk]]) 17:33, 25 November 2018 (EST)
If anything, the Henry should be the second repeater unlocked after the Spencer, since the Winchester was designed to be an improvement over the Henry. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] ([[User talk:Spartan198|talk]]) 20:34, 7 March 2019 (EST)
== Springfield Rifle ==
I think the Springfield Rifle is actually based on either the 1884 model or the 1888 model as it has the ramrod bayonet that appeared on those rifles. --[[User:SmithandWesson36|SmithandWesson36]] ([[User talk:SmithandWesson36|talk]]) 12:29, 6 December 2018 (EST)
== Quirks in the weapon animations ==
I'm not going to even mention the absurdly quick reloads, but I noticed some animation errors on first person view:
*The Mauser C96 having a double action trigger on the first trigger pull. As I am aware, this should not be possible.
*The animation for using the Spencer repeater seems reversed. I thought you had to cock the hammer before racking the lever, now it's vice versa.
*When operating the 1960 Henry the character must hold the carbine very gingerly, since he doesn't seem to really move his hand to make room for the follower.
*The double barrel shotguns, shortened or not, seem to have ejectors. (Anachronistic?)
*If the Auto-5 wasn't anachronistic enough, it has a push button safety on the rear of the trigger guard instead of the early suicide safety, the magazine cutoff is wrongly modeled, a ribbed barrel that was introduced in the 1920s is available as customization option and it has the speed-load mechanism from the 1950s and onwards.
*Somehow slowly turning the wheel won't fire the gatling gun, but once you crank it fast enough it starts firing.

::The thing that is pulled out of the Spencer stock is not a conventional tube magazine. It's more like a follower. The rounds are loaded into the stock individually, and then the follower would be inserted back into the stock in order to push the cartridges from the stock into the chamber. The game depicts the way that cavalrymen in the civil war would've loaded it. They carried several tubes full of seven rounds and they would remove the follower from the stock, dump the rounds from the tube into the stock and replace the follower. The empty tube would then be placed aside. --[[User:SmithandWesson36|SmithandWesson36]] ([[User talk:SmithandWesson36|talk]]) 12:39, 19 December 2018 (EST)

Not an animation, but something I wish Rockstar had taken into consideration was the common practice of loading only five rounds in the SAA due to its habit of discharging if pressure was applied to the hammer on a loaded chamber even when uncocked. If I'm not mistaken, this "quirk" wasn't corrected until some time in the 1990s. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] ([[User talk:Spartan198|talk]]) 23:59, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
:I thought that was usually alleviated by carrying it half-cocked, or on one of the rest notches between chambers on the back of the cylinder (on the guns that had them). Besides, I can certainly see why the devs wouldn't implement something like that - it'd be rather annoying to see 6 available chambers but only have your character use 5.

Yeah, a trailer dropped October 20. Blew up the internet. There weren't any super good shots of weapons, but here's what I saw:
  • A man walking a horse with a deer on its back is holding some kind of carbine (like a full size Spencer or Springfield Trapdoor that was cut down or something).
  • A man leaning against a stagecoach looking at vultures pecking at a coyote corpse is holding what looks like a double-barreled shotgun.
  • A gunfighter is holding a Winchester rifle.
  • A shot of seven riders shows them with Colt SAAs, one with a Henry rifle, and one with a sawed-off shotgun.

There's no page for the M1892.--AgentGumby (talk) 17:36, 25 March 2018 (EDT)
I didn't M1892 I said Colt New Army and Navy which the M1892 falls under as a government order which for the purposes of gameplay and story would be unnecessary because the commercial model of it is the New Army and Navy. The M1892 is just a military adoption of the Colt New Army and Navy, which does have a page. That's why I was wondering why the link is to a different revolver.

I'm leaning toward a Henry, but I wanted to get some opinions. Spartan198 (talk) 13:56, 23 May 2018 (EDT)

It's a Henry, the lack of fore-end and the clear to see twist barrel prove it. Let's hope they figured out that that thing under the gun is the magazine follower and it moves. Also you see the receiver in the same picture that shows the Carcano, it's hanging muzzle down over the pommel of the saddle. I knew they were using the preexisting resources and properties, let's hope they re-skin that Carcano to something a bit more accurate to the time huh?

Maybe in terms of detail, but they're really foregoing the historical accuracy in this one. The Browning M1917 returns (so it would appear ALL (if not most) of Redemption's weapons are going to return.). Could have made it a Maxim 1895, but oh well. -User:1morey September 21, 2018 6:23 PM (EST)
Did you see the screenshot that is now on the game page? The machine gun has been re-modeled and it now has spade grips and what appears to be the fusee spring cover on the left side. Considering these details, the designers must intend it to be a Maxim and not a Browning.--Phillb36 (talk) 20:33, 22 September 2018 (EDT)

New weapon

One of the pre-order incentives includes a rifle dubbed ingame as the "Lancaster Varmint Rifle". (looks to be a small caliber muzzleloader): https://i.redd.it/m1thsegj01o11.jpg (Not the shotgun, but the other long gun on Arthur's back) - User:1morey October 3, 2018 3:48 PM (EST)

Looks like some flavor of generic single shot .22 rifle that would've been more common than dirt in 1899 given everyone and their mother were making some subvariation of that basic idea. Given the name "Lancaster", I'll guess it's some ersatz version of Winchester and thus would be some variation of Winchester single shots you might be able to somewhat narrow down on. -- PaperCake 5 October, 2018 22:02 (EST)

Weapons speculation

So it was announced there will be over 50 weapons in the game, which means there should be quite a large selection of new firearms to use. The interesting thing is that the available screenshots and video only show weapons that were already in the previous game. Other than the mention of the "Lancaster Varmint Rifle", Rockstar have given no indication what the new firearms will be. There are quite a few possibilities. Winchester 1887, Burgess, & Spenser shotguns. For rifles, Winchester 1895, Savage 1899, Remington-Keene, Remington-Lee, Winchester-Hotchkiss, Mauser, Winchester 1890 and Colt Lightning. I'm not sure which pistols could be added, but the Colt Lightning, Remington 1875/1890, and Browning 1899 are possible choices. Maybe we could even see the 1895 Colt Machine gun? Of course a portion of the new weapons will be for melee, but I would think the majority will be firearms. Anyway, I hope at least some of what I listed appear in the game.-- Phillb36 (talk) 23:53, 18 October 2018 (EDT)

Partial Weapons list leaked

Check it out while you can because this leak might disappear soon: https://ibb.co/m4xvaq

--Brasco (talk) 19:06, 22 October 2018 (EDT)

Mauser C96, what looks like a Winchester 1890, Springfield Trapdoor Rifle, Krag-Jorgensen Rifle, Spencer 1860 Carbine, Winchester Model 1866 Yellowboy Carbine, Henry Rifle, Double Barreled Hammer Shotguns and a Sawed off double. Looks like Lancaster is the in universe equivalent of Winchester and they're calling the Henry a Litchfield. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 20:43, 22 October 2018 (EDT)
Those are all already confirmed weapons, not a big surprise here. --AgentGumby (talk) 20:50, 22 October 2018 (EDT)
There was a video on YouTube(now since taken down) that appeared to show every weapon listed in the guide, and it was kind of disappointing. A large number of the 50 weapons are of the thrown or melee variety. Only two new firearms have been added, the Winchester 1890 & Winchester 1887. In fact, weapons from the previous game have been cut from RDR2. The Lemat, Evans, Sharps, & FN Pistol are gone. The FN getting axed isn't really a surprise but I thought the others would be carried over. The weapon count was also inflated by having 2 or 3 different versions of one gun, but classifying each one as a separate and unique. When I read there would be over 50 weapons I thought for sure there would be a wide array of firearms, but instead this is rather deceptive and there are actually less than before. Hopefully more will be added with DLC.-- Phillb36 (talk) 22:52, 23 October 2018 (EDT)

Lackluster weapons

I really wished there were more weapons like the Colt Double action Lightning, Remington revolvers, Mauser Rifles, Mosin Nagant, early Lee Enfields, Martini Henry, etc. All we got are every single weapon from the first game and 2 of them are now anachronistic. At least they made the C96 accurate and not a fully automatic pistol Excalibur01 (talk) 18:17, 7 November 2018 (EST)

I would have liked a Marlin 1895. Spartan198 (talk) 20:32, 30 December 2018 (EST)

Weapons

So I saw a youtube video where a Old West enthusiast brought up seven different things he noticed in RDR II, and how accurate they were to the time (mainly focusing on clothing, the holster, weapons, and saddles.)

I brought up the fact that the Winchester 1866 seems to be an odd choice as the primary repeater in 1899. And I got a reply saying that actually, most repeaters were incredibly expensive for most people, and that people still carried percussion rifles or revolvers by the turn of the 20th century. I found that rather hard to believe. Not to say that no one did, but to say that the common person was carrying a percussion weapon by the time 1900 rolled through seems a bit of a stretch. - User:1morey November 24, 2018 9:06 PM (EST)

First, thanks for sharing the video with us, very helpful. Second, nobody is gonna throw away a perfectly good weapon just because they have an opportunity to spent a months pay or more on a new one. Percussion caps, gunpowder and lead are cheaper than loaded cartridges and always have been, then there's the question of where to get more ammo when you need it. Just about any store dealing in firearms or general goods would stock lead, powder and caps not your new cartridge that might fail commercially or even stop being produced as did happen to a number of them over time. Lastly the percussion guns were readily available and cheap due to their continuous production since the 1830's, due to that unless you felt a need to own the latest thing and the financial means to do so you'd use what you had until it could not be used anymore.
Cartridge firearms were introduced in the 1850's but weren't successful until the late 1860's early 1870's by 1900 most people could afford to have a cartridge gun, most not all, the poor generally had to use what was cheapest and easiest to get and supply ammunition for. The percussion guns were still around and being used because a bullet is a bullet and healthcare was still primitive enough that just about any bullet would kill. Black Irish Paddy (talk) 23:58, 24 November 2018 (EST)
Thanks for the explanation. I was always under the impression that the common person (not necessarily the destitute) owned some kind of cartridge firearm. Don't know the economics of that time, but I have rarely (if ever) seen a photo taken in the 1880s-1890s of a person with a percussion firearm (On the flipside, I have seen a photo dated 1913 (I believe) with a sheriff of some unnamed town carrying a Luger in his holster). I understand the few surviving photos of that period aren't indicative of the entire population of the American west as a whole. - User:1morey November 25, 2018 9:43 AM (EST)

Do not forget that in many countries (such as the USSR), some poor people used percussion guns even in the 20th century. --Slon95 (talk) 10:33, 25 November 2018 (EST)

Kind of ties in with this discussion. Many American ammo companies manufactured black powder cartridges into the 1930's! To include some old cartridges such as the 50 caliber Spencer and the Winchester 44 Rimfire. It was the demands of World War II that brought about the demise of those old cartridges. After the war ended shooters wanted newer calibers and black powder became the domain of hobbyists. But ,until then, there were still many older firearms being carried and used by everyday people. My gun safe is full of firearms that were made over sixty and seventy years ago. They are in great shape and are more than capable of doing the job if necessary. --Jcordell (talk) 22:39, 27 January 2019 (EST)

Actually, I just want to add that such a formulation is initially incorrect. It is expected that guns that have been manufactured for a long time will be found much more often than newer ones, especially introduced several years ago. Especially considering the reliable design of M1866 at a rather low price (if I remember correctly, its production constantly continued at the request of many, because of this). --Slon95 (talk) 18:18, 8 July 2020 (EDT)

Pressing trigger again to cock gun

I found it annoying really fast that your character no longer auto cocks a gun after every shot. This made me shoot twice during fights and actually has been throwing off my aim. I understand how in the real world, most of these guns are lever actions, and pump action that requires you to actually do it, but this is a game and I don't remember the previous Red Dead doing this. I also understand why long guns not chambered back in the day would be a standard practice but why in the hell is the bolt action, a very advanced rifle, of the period not already cocked when it has all 5 rounds loaded? They animate you working the bolt on the Krag every time you take it off your shoulder. The only gun that doesn't do that is the Auto-5 Excalibur01 (talk) 10:20, 25 November 2018 (EST)


I'm also calling bullshit on weapon progression. The lever action shotgun should not be unlocked after you get the Auto-5. It should be either before or after the pump action. Same with the Henry rifle because by the time you unlock it, you'd have gotten the bolt action Krag. Excalibur01 (talk) 17:33, 25 November 2018 (EST)

If anything, the Henry should be the second repeater unlocked after the Spencer, since the Winchester was designed to be an improvement over the Henry. Spartan198 (talk) 20:34, 7 March 2019 (EST)

Springfield Rifle

I think the Springfield Rifle is actually based on either the 1884 model or the 1888 model as it has the ramrod bayonet that appeared on those rifles. --SmithandWesson36 (talk) 12:29, 6 December 2018 (EST)

Quirks in the weapon animations

I'm not going to even mention the absurdly quick reloads, but I noticed some animation errors on first person view:

  • The Mauser C96 having a double action trigger on the first trigger pull. As I am aware, this should not be possible.
  • The animation for using the Spencer repeater seems reversed. I thought you had to cock the hammer before racking the lever, now it's vice versa.
  • When operating the 1960 Henry the character must hold the carbine very gingerly, since he doesn't seem to really move his hand to make room for the follower.
  • The double barrel shotguns, shortened or not, seem to have ejectors. (Anachronistic?)
  • If the Auto-5 wasn't anachronistic enough, it has a push button safety on the rear of the trigger guard instead of the early suicide safety, the magazine cutoff is wrongly modeled, a ribbed barrel that was introduced in the 1920s is available as customization option and it has the speed-load mechanism from the 1950s and onwards.
  • Somehow slowly turning the wheel won't fire the gatling gun, but once you crank it fast enough it starts firing.
And it seems to me, or when Spencer reloading from the first person Morgan takes out a devastated magazine, changes it with a new one ... and inserts the old one again? --Slon95 (talk) 16:07, 11 December 2018 (EST)
The thing that is pulled out of the Spencer stock is not a conventional tube magazine. It's more like a follower. The rounds are loaded into the stock individually, and then the follower would be inserted back into the stock in order to push the cartridges from the stock into the chamber. The game depicts the way that cavalrymen in the civil war would've loaded it. They carried several tubes full of seven rounds and they would remove the follower from the stock, dump the rounds from the tube into the stock and replace the follower. The empty tube would then be placed aside. --SmithandWesson36 (talk) 12:39, 19 December 2018 (EST)

Why don't you have a seat right over there? --PyramidHead (talk) 14:12, 11 July 2020 (EDT)

Not an animation, but something I wish Rockstar had taken into consideration was the common practice of loading only five rounds in the SAA due to its habit of discharging if pressure was applied to the hammer on a loaded chamber even when uncocked. If I'm not mistaken, this "quirk" wasn't corrected until some time in the 1990s. Spartan198 (talk) 23:59, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

I thought that was usually alleviated by carrying it half-cocked, or on one of the rest notches between chambers on the back of the cylinder (on the guns that had them). Besides, I can certainly see why the devs wouldn't implement something like that - it'd be rather annoying to see 6 available chambers but only have your character use 5.

Left-handed animations

Interestingly, the game has left-handed animations that appear under a very specific set of circumstances. They are all fully animated with no weapon mirroring magic (the bolt action rifle for example has Arthur move his right hand back to pull the bolt). Pretty cool for something that is almost never seen. --Wuzh (talk) 04:29, 12 June 2020 (EDT)
