How Pistol and Rocket Launcher stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto III.
Claude's starter sidearm — a 9mm semi-automatic with a tight crosshair and decent reload. Sold at every Liberty City Ammu-Nation from the opening missions and a fixture of Portland street fights.
An unguided RPG that obliterates vehicles, helicopters, and groups of enemies in one shot — the franchise's original heavy hitter. Hidden at the Shoreside Vale Ammu-Nation and at several iconic GTA III secret pickup points.
