The Minigun picture

What the hell is the GTA vice city minigun doing in here? The Minigun in San Andreas was different.-Oliveira 22:47, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Ok, once again, couldn't find the screenshot from San Andreas. If you could help me find one, that'd be good. Gunman69 06:44, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

There's one here: http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/Minigun-Oliveira 12:43, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

1911 and M16

I think the 'colt 1911' would more appropriatly be labeled Para-Ordnance P.18, which hold 18 rounds of 9mm.

Secondly, when CJ holds the M16, it appears to be more like the Bushmaster Dissipator, with it's 16 inch barrel, as opposed to a colt commando with an 11.5 inch barrel. It's also the same size as the Ak47, which also has a 16 inch barrel, making the Dizzy more likely. --Zurak 47 09:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Well, the Para-Ordnance P.18 and the Bushmaster Dissipator are not the same as the models used in the game. Off the bat, I can tell you that the P.18 has a beavertail grip safety and the Bushmaster has a fixed stock. These traits are different from the models in the game. They are more likely based on the 1911 and the 733. So, thank you for the opinion, but we'll keep it as it is. -Gunman69 22:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Dizzys can come from the factory with a collasible stock, http://www.bushmaster.com/images/catalog/xm_15_zoom/BCWA3S%2016D.jpg or be installed by the the end user. I don't disagree that the 1911 image isn't the P18 (although the old P18s didn't have the large beavertail, http://www.sightm1911.com/1911pix/product/Para-Ordnance_P18-9_Pistol_IMAGE_FILE.gif) but it says the 17 round magazine is 'unrealistic'. I think it was originally supposed to be a glock.

Yeah, I think the gaming community has come to the consensus that it was supposed to be a Glock. It seems more likely, however, that it would be a Colt 733. It fits all of the traits (except the erroneous 50 round magazine). In addition, Vice City and Liberty City Stories also feature the 733. Furthermore, "Dizzys" feature an A2 upper reciever, whereas this gun does not. -Gunman69 04:11, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Uzi

I can't add this to the main page because it's not actually in the game, but an IMI Uzi is seen in beta sreenshots. It was originally supposed to be featured in the game, but for some reason, Rockstar decided to remove it from the final version of the game.

IMI Uzi - 9mm

IMI Uzi

If you want to include Beta weapons, then include both the M249, M60, and the M82 Rifle. All three were originally going to be in the game, but were cut for unknown reasons. All of the guns are still in the game files for the PS2 version. The Homing RPG was originally supposed to be the M47 Dragon, but that was changed too. Hughjefender

I added the Uzi 9mm to the Main Page. It DOES appear in the Game, seen on a Statue of Big Smoke inside his Crack Palace, only accessable during the Final Mission.

Strela

Unknown assault rifle

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

This gun (in the red rectangle) was seen on the rack in the Ammunation. What is this rifle? --RedCharger 06:54, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

i have not the slightest clue

It resembles a Russian AS silenced assault rifle somewhat [1]. Spartan198 14:36, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

No, that's a 22 rifle that's been tricked out to look like an assault rifle. It's either a ruger 10/22 receiver that's been heavily modified or an AR-7 rifle that has also been as I said, heavily modified. I recognize the magazine as being an aftermarket mag for 22 lr rifes. I wouldn't identify it as such on the main article but just to answer your question above. Hughjefender

Looks like the Federal Engineering XC220--Orita Md.41 09:28, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

I didn't know you could put an AKS stock on one of those. Hughjefender.

It's not ANYTHING, the game designers probably didn't want to base it on any firearm because it's seen so briefly. It was probably used to fill in a gap. User:jackbel

FINALLY I found out what it is! It`s a Charter Arms AR-7 Explorer http://www.weaponspecialists.com/charter-arms-ar-7-explorer

Sniper rifle

it only has one improvement over the Rifle, and that is a zoomable scope.

Not true, gameplay POV the Rifle does 75 damage while the Sniper Rifle does 125, an average pedestrian (except few gang members, SWAT, FBI and National guard) has 100 HP. As a result the Sniper Rifle kills with one body shot compared to the Rifle's two.

Colt .45 / 9mm Pistol

If it holds 17 9mm rounds in the magazine and looks like M1911 pistol, it could be STI Eagle 5.0 (chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum).

Throughout development, it was always meant to be a Glock, but at the last moment, it was changed to the model of a 1911 (from the last game) but kept all the workings of the Glock. --Jackbel 22:26, 10 June 2011 (CDT)

Ingame screenshots.

The screens of the Ammunation vendor are presumably taken in an Ammunation in Las Venturas. In LV everything is 20% expensive compared to the rest of the state. E.g The regular pistol costs 200$ anywhere outside Las Venturas, but 240$ in the city.
