How AP Pistol and Hammer stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto V.

A select-fire armor-piercing machine pistol — full-auto in a sidearm slot, ideal for drive-bys when an SMG would block the camera. Unlocked at Ammu-Nation mid-story.

A claw hammer — a blunt one-handed melee tool that lands with a heavy thud. Found at construction sites across Los Santos and Blaine County and stocked at Ammu-Nation.
