How AP Pistol and Sniper Rifle 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 bolt-action scoped sniper rifle that one-shots most enemies with a head or torso hit. Stocked at Ammu-Nation from the mid-tier weapons range and a fixture of GTA V's heist setups.
