How M16 and Molotov Cocktail stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto III.

GTA III's top-tier assault rifle — fully auto, laser-accurate, and devastating into the endgame. Sold only at the Shoreside Vale Ammu-Nation and dropped by Cartel enforcers in the final missions.

A petrol-filled bottle that bursts into a pool of fire on impact — perfect for area denial and burning down parked Mafia cars. Stocked at Ammu-Nation early in the story and dropped during several Portland setups.
