How AP Pistol and Molotov Cocktail 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 petrol-filled bottle that bursts into a lingering pool of fire on impact — perfect for area denial. Stocked at Ammu-Nation from mid-story and a fixture of the gang turf wars.
