How Flamethrower and Sniper Rifle stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto III.
A back-mounted napalm sprayer with a continuous stream of flame — devastating against gang clusters but useless against vehicles. Required reading for several Yakuza and Cartel missions in Shoreside Vale.
A bolt-action scoped sniper rifle that one-shots most enemies with a headshot. Required for the rooftop hits in Staunton Island and stocked at the high-end Ammu-Nation late game.
