How Assault Rifle and Battle Axe stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto V.

The classic AK-47-style 7.62 rifle — hard-hitting and ammo-efficient, the rifle of choice for full-scale gun battles. Stocked at Ammu-Nation from mid-story onward.

A medieval-style two-handed war axe added with the Bikers update — one of GTA V's slowest melee weapons, but with the highest single-hit damage in the entire melee class.
