How AP Pistol and Carbine 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.
An M4-style 5.56 carbine with tight aim assist — out-ranges the AK at the cost of slightly tighter ammo. Sold at Ammu-Nation from mid-story.
