How AP Pistol and Brass Knuckles 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 pair of brass knucks that turn Michael, Trevor, and Franklin's unarmed punches into bone-breaking hits without changing the animation. Stocked at Ammu-Nation and a staple GTA Online opener.
