Talk:Payday 2
Getting Started
Well I'm not the best at coding but I just wanted to get this page started. Anyone is free to help. --eelikay 10:23, 2 August 2013 (CDT)
- Gimmie some time, I can get default screenshots for most every beta game. --Dannysaysnoo 00:34, 3 August 2013 (GMT)
Not a Heat reference
Just because the game has a 733, doesn't mean it's a reference to Heat. Also it isn't even using the curved 30 round magazine. It's like a badly rendered stretched 20 round mag like in COD Black Ops. Also Payday 2's 733 also has a modern M4 3rd gen stock and A2 rear sight while the 733 in Heat had a gen 2 stock and an A1 rear sight. Excalibur01 (talk) 00:17, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
- I guess they add the 20 round mag as a balancing thing. The stock and sight differences are odd, would that change the model? Also, I can't show you it yet, as the beta hasn't opened up that far, but it also seems like the game has the FN FNC, if menu art is anything to go by. That is most certainly a Heat reference, and the developers have already stated it was an influence on the game. Dannysaysnoo 11:27, 3 August 2013 (GMT)
- It's really moot point since we're just robbing banks in a modern setting, so I'd use a more contemporary weapon than a design that's a bit dated. Excalibur01 (talk) 11:28, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
The AUG is MASR STG ?
AUG's Magazine is not original. Do This Made MASR ? Assuming this is MASR made AUG ? - KINKI'boy (talk) 13:46, 3 August 2013 (JST)
- Looks like a Magpul PMAG, as for the rifle, it's not uncommon for game devs to model their guns off of airsoft or civilian versions of guns. So it could be a MASR STG instead of a true AUG, I don't know how to tell.--Crazycrankle (talk) 09:46, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
- Also the foregrip is the KAC vertical grip instead of the folding grip Excalibur01 (talk) 11:29, 3 August 2013 (EDT)
All beta weapons added
That's every single weapon from the beta capped, and added. Dannysaysnoo 17:27, 3 August 2013 (GMT)
- You can't access the P90 or HK416 in the beta? There are silhouettes for them on the second pages of primary and secondary weapons.Temp89 (talk) 17:28, 4 August 2013 (EDT)
- No, you can't. The level cap is 30. The only weapons not on the page are the FN FNC, at 33, the M16A2, at 39, A double barrel shotgun at 39, the P90 at 36, and the Deagle at 36. (Those are just guesses as to what they are. They might be slightly different once I see the 3D models. Dannysaysnoo 01:40, 4 August 2013 (GMT)
Screenshots
I think we should use view mode for the majority of the screen shots. The models have more detail than thirdperson and you can see more of it than in first person ex: http://imageshack.us/a/img203/7945/0tfc.jpg (This is just a photo since I can't screenshot on a PS3 and don't have a computer version of the game)
Kona (talk) 17:31, 21 August 2013 (EDT)
Weapon Variants
So I was thinking the gun customization in this game means a lot of guns have different variants that are worthy of article mention- here's what I've found:
CAR-4 (M4A1- furniture mods can turn it into a LR300.
UAR (AUG A2)- A3 forend mod.
M308 (M14)- Jae 100 chassis, the EBR chassis is already shown in the article.
Ak5- FNC handguard and Ak5C stock + forend, no ability to give it a proper "C" carbine barrel though.
AMR-16 (M16A4)- can get the A1 handguard.
Compact 5 (MP5)- the MP5K can be unlocked for use in addition to being used in the Sentry gun. AgentGumby (talk) 13:53, 13 September 2013 (EDT)
This ist LR 300 ??
--MTOOO (talk) 14:17, 13 September 2013 (EDT)
- I agree with mentioning this in the main article. I have also found that the Colt Model 733 is turned into a Colt Model 933 if attaching an optical sight. --RaNgeR (talk) 14:37, 13 September 2013 (EDT)
Finish
Article finished. Make any other screenshots? --MTOOO (talk) 11:01, 15 September 2013 (EDT)
Anyone know what rifle this is?
This is the picture from the sniper asset you can buy on Watchdogs day 2. Anyone know what rifle he's carrying? Looks like a Remington 700 variant, but I'm having trouble identifying the specific model.--Lynx (talk) 12:09, 12 October 2013 (EDT)
DLC weapons
A DLC has been released including 3 new guns and in two days another DLC will release adding yet another 3 new guns. So if anyone feels inclined to properly identify the real life models and add screenshots, I would appreciate it. I would do so myself but having played the game all my guns are heavily customized at this point.
Armored Transport DLC includes a SIG 551-A1 SBR (From what I can tell, might be a different model), a Walther PPK and a Carl Gustav M/45 sub machine gun (Which is erroneously stated to be .45 cal on the DLC page).
http://www.overkillsoftware.com/armoredtransport/
The DLC to be released will include a FN SCAR-H, a HK MP7 and a handgun I can't identify.
http://www.overkillsoftware.com/gageweaponpack01/
- Mutant1988 (talk)
The unidentified handgun seems to be a Sig Sauer P226.
I've started uploading screenshots of the weapons in the first DLC. Won't be uploading any for the second pack, as I have no intent of buying it right now. Would appreciate it if someone wrote some descriptions and correctly identify the Sig Sauer model. - Mutant1988 (talk)
I got both DLCs so I'll upload the screencap a when I get the chance. Kona (talk) 11:46, 28 December 2013 (EST)
The most recent update (Death Wish) added a new difficulty and in that difficulty, we have two more weapons featured in the hands of NPCs (The guns are currently unavailable to players). The guns being the HK UMP and the Benelli M4 (Which seems to be based on the H2O model, but with a solid instead of a telescoping stock). Both seen featured here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8CMPB03-pw&feature=player_detailpage#t=45 - Mutant1988 (talk)
Another DLC pack incoming - 3 sniper rifles to add to the arsenal, all featured in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNs9yQcc5ew
Pictures and in-game names are scheduled to be revealed tomorrow. So far though, I've identified one of them as a Barret M95. Mutant1988 (talk)
- Looks like the other two are the Blaser R93 LRS2 and a Remington 700 with verious chassis mods (wooden M40A5 and MSR, it looks like). Barret seems weirdly semi auto.AgentGumby (talk) 17:24, 6 May 2014 (EDT)
"Barret seems weirdly semi auto.". Well, it is a video game bolt action rifle. I think the limited FOV cuts off the actual bolt operation animation. If you look closely, you can see that the right hand isn't holding the grip after shooting (At about 26,5s in the video). --Mutant1988 (talk) 20:53, 6 May 2014 (EDT)
I am very lazy. I apologize for that. Anyway, I uploaded inventory screenshots of the shotguns from the "Gage Shotgun Pack" DLC. --Mutant1988 (talk) 03:13, 4 September 2014 (EDT)
MP5A2/A3/KN?
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the presence of a burst fire option in the selector make them MP5A4, A5, SD5, SD6 and KA4 respectively? --yocapo32 (talk) 15:15, 8 June 2014 (EDT)
- Actually the texture is kinda goofed, the selector has no Safe option, it doesn't have a crossed out white bullet pictogram, instead it has a white Semi pictogram, so technically it has no Safe mode, it just has Semi/Burst/Auto. :\ Mr. Wolf (talk) 00:24, 4 July 2014 (EDT)
Missed lots of guns, MP7, and FAL's pic, three new shotguns DLC which include Benelli M4 , STRIKER12, and KSG, anyone wants to work with me?
I m newbie, so don't know too much about it.....
FN FNC
The "Belgian Heat" handguard changes the AK5 to a FNC. Could someone in possession of the mod add it on please?
Kona (talk) 22:14, 21 August 2014 (EDT)
PSG-1 from Modded G3?
I have noticed that modding Gewehr 3 with DMR Kit, Precision foregrip, grip and stock will create a gun that heavily resembles H&K PSG-1, should it be included in the list? and if so, under what category should it be in?, since the ridle is not a proper sniper rifle in game so to speak
Here's the said rifle:
--Pyronite (talk) 00:50, 5 October 2014 (EDT)
It looks like Heckler & Koch SR9TC.
--Seganamcofan (talk) 10:40, 5 October 2014 (EDT)
It actually uses the original PSG-1 parts so it's not a SR9TC, even though, I'd say it's more a hybrid than other. --James Dalcan
- That gun is a total mongrel, it is no real G3 variant. Firstly, there is a paddle mag release which rules out the SR9 and PSG-1. The combination of a front sight post and the PSG style handguard might suggest an MSG90A1, however it has a plain barrel, the trigger pack is the original metal type rather than the polymer Navy type used on the MSG90, and the rear sight is a normal diopter rather than the one used on the MSG90. Technically, I would say that it is a G3 fitted with a PSG-1 handguard, butt and trigger shoe, and a plain heavy barrel (it is not the normal PSG-1 one though, it is too short). --commando552 (talk) 20:27, 5 October 2014 (EDT)
John Wick DLC
OVERKILL released a new DLC based on John Wick, which added John as a playable character, a Glock 26, three new accessories for the pistols, two new grips for the Glocks, and the ability the dual wield the Glock 26, the Operator, the Beretta 92 (a shout-out to Matrix, perhaps?) and the Desert Eagle.
They added another weapon, a SPAS 12, with it's own sets of mods and all.
Gage Historic Pack DLC
OVERKILL is making a new weapon pack full of WWII era weapons. The weapons are, at least by my guess, to be a MG42, a Mauser C96, either a Sten gun or a Sterling, and a sniper version of the Mosin-Nagant. So apparently with the purchase of the pack, you get to murder cops with an 100 year old handgun. (PaperCake)
- http://overkillsoftware.com/gagehistoricalpack/ AgentGumby (talk) 19:18, 11 November 2014 (EST)
Well, I was close, the weapons in it are an MG42, named the Buzzsaw 42, a Sterling, named the Pratchett L2A1, the C96 is named the Broomstick, and the Mosin 91/30 is named the Mosin-Nagant. Even so, you get to murder cops with WWII-era weaponry. (PaperCake)

The Bomb Heists DLC Weapons
The HS Produkt VHS-2 and HS Produkt HS2000 40SW model is added on The Bomb Heists DLC. Its named "Lion’s Roar rifle" and "LEO pistol". --Seganamcofan
It's an Springfield Armory XDM, actually. --yocapo32 (talk) 03:22, 26 January 2015 (EST)
XDM/HS2000
I'm a bit perplexed by the XDM, since it has the serrations of a XDM, and yet they still went out of their way to label it HS. It appears that Springfield just markets the HS2000 in the US, everything is still manufactured in Croatia. Is there an international version of the XDM that HS sells? --Funkychinaman (talk) 23:03, 1 February 2015 (EST)
Why do the images have the weapons' actual names in quotes?
It seems kind of weird having image descriptions that state things like; 'The player holds the "Brügger & Thomet TP9-US".' despite the fact that those are the actual names of the weapons. Wouldn't it be more fitting to say; 'The player holds the "CMP".', or at least remove the quotes? The way that it's set up just really bothers me. --Sergeant Simpleton (talk) 00:38, 2 February 2015 (EST)
- It's standard practice to include the name of the actual weapon, and there's nothing wrong with having the alias in quotes. I see nothing wrong here. --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:11, 2 February 2015 (EST)
- Well, I gotta admit seeing the quoted weapon name on almost every in-game thumbnail does look a bit annoying, not to mention a wee bit redundant perhaps. But as said, there's nothing actually wrong with it. StanTheMan (talk) 13:04, 2 February 2015 (EST)
- Oh, you mean in the captions. Yes, that's a bit annoying. I wouldn't object if someone took them out. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:44, 2 February 2015 (EST)
- I think it's an artifact of Mateogala not really speaking English, he puts the in-game weapon name in quotes I guess because he saw a page where that was done with a fictional or hybrid weapon. If anyone's doing a find / replace for that, could they also swap "player" for "player character?" That one always bugs me, the player isn't the guy in the game. Evil Tim (talk) 17:55, 2 February 2015 (EST)
- Yeah, I was referring to the captions, should've been a bit more concise. There's nothing inherently wrong with it, it's just ever so slightly bothersome to me personally. --Sergeant Simpleton (talk) 22:18, 3 February 2015 (EST)

OVERKILL DLC
The weapons have been announced for the DLC. They are a handheld M134 Minigun and an RPG-7. This is gonna be fun. PaperCake 12:29, 6 March 2015 (EST)
M134 Barrels
The article mentions that they don't move, but they actually do, at least with the short and Vulcan-esque barrels. --yocapo32 (talk) 09:21, 7 March 2015 (EST)
Okay, I just checked, the default and Aerial Assault barrel definitely move, but I'm still not sure about the short ones, I have no money in game at the moment, so I can't check right now. --yocapo32 (talk) 09:40, 7 March 2015 (EST)
I just read a lot of people saying they didn't spin on the forums and reddit, I didn't actually check myself. I just watched a video and they were spinning in first person, so maybe they just don't spin in 3rd person or maybe those people were wrong. S3anyBoy (talk) 14:25, 7 March 2015 (EST)
After some testing, I managed to find out that if your game is running at 30, 60 or 120 FPS the barrels appear to not rotate due to the monitor not being able to actually register the spin before it refreshes. In 45, 50, 75, and 135 the barrel jumps around, but some rotation can be seen. So in conclusion, yeah, they do spin. --yocapo32 (talk) 01:01, 8 March 2015 (EST)
Do you know if the 3rd person model spins as well? S3anyBoy (talk) 14:44, 8 March 2015 (EDT)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hS6h4NTd3w&feature=youtu.be --Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (talk) 17:26, 8 March 2015 (EDT)
- I have a feeling this might be the same optical illusion that causes car wheels to stop spinning or rotate backwards: if the barrels are in the same position every time the screen refreshes, the minigun will appear to not be turning even though it actually is. The reason it appears to be totally stopped is the lack of motion blur on them, I think. Evil Tim (talk) 17:33, 8 March 2015 (EDT)
I've seen videos of first person showing them spinning (I don't have enough to buy the weapon myself yet.) What I'm asking is if the 3rd person model spins as well. Payday 2 (like lots of games) has separate models for first person and 3rd person, the 3rd person models are significantly lower quality and the animations for them are less precise (look at this mod that replaced the 3rd person models with the 1st person ones to see https://steamcommunity.com/app/218620/discussions/15/558754900072790886). The only person I saw using the minigun ingame only had it for a few seconds and I didn't get a chance to see if the barrels spun in 3rd person. Regardless I removed the part about them not spinning, but may add a note if they don't spin in 3rd person. S3anyBoy (talk) 13:16, 9 March 2015 (EDT)
P30L?
I'm thinking of buying this game since it's on sale on Steam (along with it's ludicrous amount of DLC). BUT, didn't Overkill really add H&K P30Ls with the John Wick update? I was kinda hoping I'd see them in the game. --Warejaws (talk) 08:10, 10 March 2015 (EDT)
They added a Glock 26 (Chimano Compact) with John Wick as his signature gun. S3anyBoy (talk) 10:03, 10 March 2015 (EDT)
There isn't a P30L in the game, but there are pistols in the game that you can mod to look similar to it, like the USP (Interceptor .45 in game) with either the Facepunch Compensator or the Match slide, the Signature .40 (SIG P226) modified with the Facepunch compensator also looks similar, then the Chimano Custom (Glock 22C) kinda sorta but not really looks like it with the Facepunch again. But your best bet would be the Interceptor .45Kornflakes89 (talk) 22:34, 12 March 2015 (EDT)
- I got the game a couple of days ago. I'm fine with the USP Expert, but they are not the same as P30Ls. Oh, and I've never been a fan of modifying my weapons in games, and I haven't modified the Expert yet. --Warejaws (talk) 04:53, 13 March 2015 (EDT)
- Modifying most of your guns to be useful is a pretty key feature in PayDay 2. Most of the weapons are not at their highest capability stock, and some of them are even detrimental as so. It does suck at times, because you often have to make your gun look ridiculously stupid in order for it to be useful, but that's just the way the game works. --Sergeant Simpleton (talk) 06:49, 13 March 2015 (EDT)
- I know, right. I've played the first one, which honestly felt a bit frustrating at times (partially because every enemy took almost 15+ rounds to kill depending on the weapon), and the Payday 2 beta. This one is less frustrating. I'm currently using the SCAR-H and the Expert, or the 1911, 'cause they take only a couple of shots to kill the enemies (well, cops, let's be honest) even without any modifications. --Warejaws (talk) 07:31, 13 March 2015 (EDT)
New Over-Under Shotgun
Introduced with (free) Bonnie character pack March 13th. A 12 Gauge Over-Under. Anyone know what kind? I think a Beretta, but not sure.S3anyBoy (talk) 20:28, 16 March 2015 (EDT)
- Beretta 682 Gold E. Hi, My Name Is GameZone (talk) 20:53, 16 March 2015 (EDT)
Looks like a Beretta S3 O/U and CZ Redhead Deluxe O/U hybrid so I added it as such. Kona (talk) 01:39, 19 March 2015 (EDT)
Butcher Mod pack
There's new mods for most of the old weapons (And a stealth mod for the saw, thank God), the new lower reciever for the AUG turns it into a EF88, the CQC barrel for the Ak 5 turns it to an Ak 5c and I haven't bought them yet, but there's mods for both the MP5 (An straight magazine that rechambers it to 10mm), and a barrel jacket and suppressor for the P90. --yocapo32 (talk) 18:04, 19 March 2015 (EDT)

Alesso heist
So far, there's only one weapon added, a Mateba 2006 which, probably intentionally, is called Matever, like in the English translation of Ghost in the Shell. --yocapo32 (talk) 22:37, 20 May 2015 (EDT)
My word this is a huge article
There's room to pack it down. Given the unholy assload of guns and variants and combinations that's not going to get any shorter, I think it'd be a good idea to arrange the guns not in absolute alphabetical order, but rather ordered, bunched and combined according to the game's own lists - the article for Far Cry 2 already shows it works. The screenshots can also show off and tell much more with a way smaller amount of images, not to mention cutting out the HUD crap and bringing them up to date with the animation overhaul.
I've redone the AMCAR (Colt Model 733) and AK5 (Bofors Ak 5, FN Herstal FNC) sections in the way I mean, although I'd still double-stack all those thumbnails. Let me know if this doesn't fly. --AVK (talk) 16:38, 16 June 2015 (EDT)
- While a change like that would be drastic, maybe removing all those screenshots and sub-articles about guns (like how the Mosin-Nagant can be modified into the carbine and sniper version) and just have "here is gun X" a few screenshots of that gun, and then some text saying "Gun X can be modified into gun Y and Z" Doing that would save a lot of space and time.
- I think you're right, blowing up the main index can wait and see. I don't know how austere you're aiming for with the subtypes, though. There's tons of trivia and other stuff to tell and the subtypes/showcase of minor mods can all be packed into the screenshots showing off the unique stuff like reloads and sight pictures. The AK5 pileup is a good indicator of what I'm going for (and I mean to stay the course for now), but that can always be stripped down further if it's still too heavy a read. --AVK
- I also think we should remove the "modified versions of {gun modified to look like a variant of the gun)", because, Jesus Christ, it's already modified. Hi, My Name Is GameZone (talk) 14:24, 17 June 2015 (EDT)
- What you did with the Ak5 was really good AVK. Maybe the entire article should be restructured in that style? I'm not the one to decided but it would be a good idea.
- I don't really see why having a long page is that big of an issue if there indeed that many guns in the game. Unless users are having issues loading the page, and AFAIK no one is, then there's no point worrying about it. And why would the FNC be under the Ak5? Isn't the Ak5 a variant of the FNC and not the other way around? --Funkychinaman (talk) 17:55, 17 June 2015 (EDT)
- The Ak5 is the base weapon unlocked in game, which can be modified into a suedoFNC with attachments. I think the page should be cleaned up in the above manner.AgentGumby (talk) 19:12, 17 June 2015 (EDT)
- If I can put my two cents into this, I like the way that AVK has structured the AK5 and AMCAR sections, it is both nice to read, injects some humor into the page and is much more nicer than having ten pictures per entry detailing everything about the weapon. I say restructure the article. --PaperCake 19:48, 17 June 2015 (EST)
- Lose the right justification on the weapon image. We don't have that anywhere else on the site, and there's no reason to start now. --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:02, 17 June 2015 (EDT)
- It's an exception, but so is the bizarre imaginary halfbreed end result itself - hence it being listed after all the relevant Ak 5 stuff. The placement follows the game's logic and considering the spiritual status of the gun (major role in Heat), it doesn't deserve to be smooshed down into a sidenote in the captions either. It may be a breach of order, but I think that's the way it makes the most sense. --AVK (talk) 13:53, 18 June 2015 (EDT)
- Wait no you were talking about the formatting. Works for me. --AVK

- What you did with the Ak5 was really good AVK. Maybe the entire article should be restructured in that style? I'm not the one to decided but it would be a good idea.
New guns in yet another DLC pack.
Alright, two new DLC'ssss came out yesterday (date: 25-6-15) The gold grin casino heist adds this new gun called the Cavity 9mm (referencing The Dentist contractor in game)
So what is this gun based of? I think it might be a Kel-Tec weapon but im not sure.
Also the AS Val (i think, correct me if im wrong) was added with the Sokol character DLC. Sokol is some russian hockey dude. Really, the gun is what im hear for. It is possible to modify the gun with a wooden stock similar to the sniper variant of the weapon.
Give me the proper names for the guns and i'll put it up on the PD2 article.
- It's Kel-tec Sub2000, and another user already added it yesterday. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:50, 26 June 2015 (EDT)
- Well that was quick. But the other gun, is it a AS val?
- Yes, it is an AS Val, can be modded to resemble the VSS Vintorez. Hi, My Name Is GameZone (talk) 17:02, 26 June 2015 (EDT)

Reformatting
This page REALLY needs someone to reformat it. It has around 3 different formatting styles on it as well as an abundance of links and some empty entries. As I said earlier with this topic, I think we should let AVK reformat and redo this page. His additions are really good, rather funny and would cut the size of the article down by quite a substantial bit as it would eliminate all the seperate sections for guns that only exist if you mod one of the base weapons. (The Mosin Nagant section is a prime example of that). I know my word doesn't mean much in the eyes of the higher-ups, but I'm being real here, this page NEEDS reformatting. --PaperCake 02:07, 7 July 2015 (EST)
- I agree, excuse my language here but this page is a real clusterf**k. As you mentioned with the Nagant, sure you can modify the weapon so it looks like some other variant of it, but it is still the same weapon with slightly different stats. Someone (i assume AVK) reformatted the CAR-4 page so instead of having a billion entries, it now just shows the basic M4A1, which is much better.
- What we should do here is either just have a few pictures of the basic gun, and then point out in text and not additional sections or even more pictures, it should something like "X gun can be modified to look like the X1A4 version" Either that or just have something like 4 pictures (one form the menu, in game idle and 2 for reloading) and with each picture have the gun in a different setup, kinda like how the AK5 entry is like now.
- I personally think we should straight up delete some entries that are superfluous. Also, one last note, a few entries here are outdated, im going to delete some pictures here and there (beginning with the Socom 16) and replace the pictures with the up to date ones--AnActualAK47 (talk) 12:57, 19 August 2015 (EDT)
Gage Ninja Pack
Now that everyone's favorite money hoarding gun launderer is back, Overkill added a new weapon pack to the game, titled the Ninja Pack. http://www.overkillsoftware.com/games/ninjapack/ Obviously, it's based on melee, poisonous and throwing weapons, but there's already three projectile weapons confirmed, a crossbow, an TDI Vector, and a WA-2000, which I'm assuming it's a reference to Hitman 2, where the ninja snipers used customized versions of it.
Also, a semiautomatic sniper rifle, freaking finally. --yocapo32 (talk) 17:15, 14 July 2015 (EDT)
- Unless they decide to portray it as a bolt-action rifle for consistency. Hi, My Name Is GameZone (talk) 18:24, 14 July 2015 (EDT)
I finally got the DLC, and to be honest? I think it's bugged. The Crossbow has two arm options that do exactly the same thing, and two grip options, where one is inherently better than the other because one gives you +1 concelament, and the other, well, doesn't. The WA-2000 has three grips, (One ivory, one ebony, and one walnut), but the ivory and walnut one do the exact same thing, which is giving a +3 in stability, but a -3 in concealment. Maybe OVERKILL wanted to make the players be able to choose between those, I'm not sure.
The KRISS, however, is pretty much a sidegrade to Jacket's Piece, a bit more damage and accuracy for lower stability. It even has exclusive attachments that do the exact same thing as JP's ones do.
Overall, though, a very fun addition to the game. --yocapo32 (talk) 01:48, 18 July 2015 (EDT)
Deleting unnecessary entries
As anyone who visited this page now, it has a ton of entries, many of which are just superfluous. For example, the MP5 in the game can indeed be modified to look like a bunch of different MP5's, but it's still the same gun but with different stats, so the additional entries are just excessive. So what im proposing is that someone (me, for example) delete all these additional entries for guns that have way to many of em', like the MP5, FAL, P90, AA-12 etc. Then i will just have one entry for each gun and within that entry showing the different versions with pictures or mentioning them in text.
Although before i start doing any of this, i must ask if i can just straight up delete entries. Can i just do that or will the ban hammer fall?--AnActualAK47 (talk) 09:47, 20 August 2015 (EDT)
- Bear in mind, that we catalogue the appearances of different guns. It is irrelevant whether in the game universe it is simply a "Compact-5" fitted with a "Ninja Foregrip" and the "Adjustable Stock", in actuality the game model is that of an MP5SD6 so in my opinion it should be listed as such. I think there is an argument to be made for collecting together the firearms that are built from the same gun, like the AK5 section currently is, but I think that any real gun that is built by modifying a base gun should be properly listed. --commando552 (talk) 13:41, 20 August 2015 (EDT)
- That's is what im proposing however, collect the entries into one instead of having a whole slew of different ones, delete the additional entries and mash em' all together.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 10:04, 21 August 2015 (EDT)
More DLC means more guns
So a new character pack was just announced (here's the trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A1Zb_HX-6g) Gun wise we're gonna get a Micro Uzi. So that's cool. No pictures of it yet however, but if the outline of it in the trailer is to be believed then it has the stock unfolded it seems--AnActualAK47 (talk) 13:04, 20 August 2015 (EDT)
SWAT van turret
Anyone know what this gun is? Looks like some type of Browning thing.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 20:01, 2 September 2015 (EDT)

New machine gun (M240?)
So on Crimefest day 5 they added a new machine gun (for free!) called the KSP 58. Now, it seems to be a M240, but the name and the stampings made me wonder if it is actually the machine gun used by the swedish army (which is still an M240 but :/) The name KSP might be a short for Kulspruta (machinegun in swedish) and i recognize that 58 designation from somewhere.
If you look closely at the markings one of them says Svea Rike (a fancier way of saying sweden in swedish) Mind you, stampings aren't always true to life in Payday 2, as evident on this very weapon where it says it was manufactured by Snusk (filth) manufacturing.
Anyhow, what i wonder is what this weapon is called by the swedish military.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 12:14, 20 October 2015 (EDT)
- It is called the "Ksp 58" by the Swedish military, google it. The original Belgian designation is FN MAG58,too.AgentGumby (talk) 13:24, 20 October 2015 (EDT)
- Alright then, too bad i don't use google :/--AnActualAK47 (talk) 13:51, 20 October 2015 (EDT)
- I believe it's an M240 with an FN MAG stock, as it has a picatinny rail on the receiver, a feature (to my knowledge) that is not on the FN MAG. Majorcamo (talk) 19:14, 22 October 2015 (EDT)
- It seems to be a mix between an M240, FN MAG and the KSP58. But im not to sure.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 12:40, 23 October 2015 (EDT)
Point break heist (!)
Apparently Overkill is gonna promote the Point Break remake nobody asked for with a new heist in Payday 2. (Here's the minisite and trailer)
Along with it comes this new gun (and some sniper rifle with the new character, can be a Remington 700 but it's hard to tell)
What's the name of that gun? Isn't it some modernized CZ?
And to answer the question you didn't ask, i'll buy all of it.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 17:28, 1 December 2015 (EST)
- Looks like a modern Jericho 941 variant --Warejaws (talk) 17:29, 1 December 2015 (EST)
- I looked it up and it actually seems to be just that!--AnActualAK47 (talk) 17:48, 1 December 2015 (EST)
Here's the new rifle they're adding with the free character pack. No idea what it's supposed to look like. Here's the trailer--AnActualAK47 (talk) 16:09, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- Going by the name and the shape of the front of the foregrip, I want to say it's a Winchester Model 70, but with the trigger guard and magazine slightly projecting from the bottom like that I'm not so sure. Kadorhal (talk) 18:08, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- Here's a real fancy render of it. --AnActualAK47 (talk) 18:24, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- Anyhow, it might be a M70, since that gun was in Point Break, albeit briefly.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 18:25, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- Yeah, I don't know a whole lot about bolt-action rifles beyond the history of use for a handful of models, but after getting a good look at that render and noticing the safety lever behind the bolt handle, I'm convinced it's a Model 70 with FN's Tactical Box Magazine adapter.

- Here's a real fancy render of it. --AnActualAK47 (talk) 18:24, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- Tacticool for all operators...Anyhow, thanks for the help!--AnActualAK47 (talk) 19:49, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- I wouldn't really say a detachable box magazine is tacicool, but yeah it is a Winchester Model 70 with a FN Tactical Box Magazine adapter. Mr. Wolf (talk) 20:42, 2 December 2015 (EST)
- It has tactical in its name so it has to be!--AnActualAK47 (talk) 20:49, 2 December 2015 (EST)

About the 1911 LO's 10 round mag
Mind you, im no expert on this, but according to the page, the 10 round capacity is wrong, however, the magazine clearly has an extended base plate, would that allow for 10 rounds? Additionally the extended magazine mode for the weapon, is called 12rnd mag although its in-game capacity is 16 rounds, but according to the page the actual capacity of that mag is 10 rounds, is that true?--AnActualAK47 (talk) 14:01, 28 December 2015 (EST)
Organizing
Unless anyone objects, im planning on reorganizing this page so weapons are shown more in order, for example, the entry for the sniper riles is a bit of a mess, showing the last unlocked sniper first and the nagant in the middle and so forth.
Also they added a full size ithaca 37 shotgun in the latest DLC, screens incoming.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 17:07, 14 January 2016 (EST)
- It's already in alphabetical order, so I personally don't think it should be reorganizing. Mr. Wolf (talk) 07:14, 15 January 2016 (EST)
- Should it be in alphabetical order or in order of appearance?--AnActualAK47 (talk) 12:01, 15 January 2016 (EST)
- I've always preferred ordering by appearance/prominence; alphabetical listings seem rather arbitrary unless the weapons have all relatively equal showcasing. That said, a bigger thing for me would be condensing and splitting some sections, mainly splitting the handguns into pistols and revolvers and the combined rifles section into separate Assault Rifles/Carbines and other (Battle) rifles sections. Also need to check where some weapons are listed - The TEC-9 is in the handguns section but really should be in the SMG section (we generally categorize machine pistols with SMGs on pages, even semiautomatic-only ones that fit the 'legal' definition of a pistol - we don't regard that in terms of classification). Likewise also put the minigun in the machine gun section (should omit 'light' from it, since that's a bit too specific and some of the MGs in there may not be considered 'light' MGs, it's argumentative, better to be more general and inclusive in that regard). StanTheMan (talk) 14:06, 15 January 2016 (EST)
- Sounds like a good idea, should i start doing sections like that? Or will the admins just undo it?--AnActualAK47 (talk) 14:24, 15 January 2016 (EST)

Wolf Pack
The ride never ends with DLC. The Wolf Pack has been announced and is gonna be released on 2/11. Free for whoever bought the original Wolf Pack for PAYDAY: The Heist. It has two new "Classic" heists, which are remakes of "Counterfeit" and "Undercover". Also is a new grenade launcher, which is a China Lake, as if the Piglet wasn't enough. --PaperCake, 9 February 2016 (EST)
- More DLC for me to buy, yey.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 13:30, 9 February 2016 (EST)
Revenge of the Reformatting 4: Return of the Reloaded Resurrection
Alright, so I've been doing some thinking on how to reformat this damn page. There has been a whole lot of words but a lack of action, so here's what I'm purposing.
First: Split the categorizes so we have individual sections for AR's and BR's to give the page more breathing room.
Second: Put the guns in order of the level you unlock them at. With the pistols for example, the section should begin with the Glock 17, the first pistol unlocked, and end with the last pistol unlocked. the Desert Eagle. Then after the base game guns, we go with the community weapons in the order they were added. Lastly we go with the (paid) DLC pistols in the order they were added.
Third: Mark the community weapons with this (*) and the DLC weapons with (**). The other way around could work too.
Unless someone objects and think we should have the page in the clustertruck state it is in right now, I'll go ahead and start changing it.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 11:19, 12 February 2016 (EST)
- Go nuts. I would attempt to update this page, but it's so elaborate and convoluted it makes my eye hurts. It took me around 1-2 hours to sort out Darkest of Days and that was only text editing. So this is just a project to end all projects. That's what we get for having 4-5 different editing styles on one page. --PaperCake 13:16, 12 February 2016 (EST)
- Alright, I'll get to it. Probably gonna start with the pistols.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 13:57, 12 February 2016 (EST)
About adding screenshots of modified versions
I have dropped that habit and i recommend to any future contributors that aren't me to NOT add pics of modified versions either.
However, if it is possible to mod a weapon into some different variant of the same weapon, like how it is possible to make the AKMS an AKM, the FAL an DSA SA58, the USP Tactical an USP Match etc etc, then i recommend adding pics of said additional variants. But don't fill up this page with even more screenshots than necessary of some mallninja abomination.
- Hear, hear, please continue with your work here.--AgentGumby (talk) 19:18, 18 March 2016 (EDT)

Another movie DLC collaboration
...and this time it's for the movie Hardcore Henry. Here's the site with the stuff. The guns added this time looks like those SR-2 Veresk subguns. They can be dual wielded.
Also, Sharlto Copley is voice acting his character, which is cool, unlike the John Wick DLC.--AnActualAK47 (talk) 12:25, 30 March 2016 (EDT)

New Stuff
So now that OVERKILL has freed PAYDAY away from 505, they've released Update 100 in an attempt to appease the angry masses. Besides changes to the safe system, they added a free version of the M67 known as the HEF Grenade. It's the same as the standard model, except it's painted black with generic grenade text and their logo stuck on the pin. They also updated the sentry guns, so now instead of a MP5K briefcase with a bunch of generic technical junk in it, it's now a FN P90 in a more home-made looking set up. They even added suppressed versions for some reason. --PaperCake 13:44. 3 June 2016 (EST)
