How AP Pistol and Pump Shotgun 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 pump-action 12 gauge — the workhorse close-range gun of GTA V. Stocked at every Ammu-Nation from the start of the story, with five-shell capacity.
