How Assault Rifle and Special Carbine 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 5.56 carbine added with the High Life update — high accuracy, large default magazine, and a balanced firing curve that makes it a popular GTA Online endgame loadout.
