How AK-47 and Chainsaw stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The classic Kalashnikov — hard-hitting and ammo-efficient, the rifle of choice for full-scale gang wars. Stocked at Ammu-Nation from San Fierro onward, with Hitman skill unlocking move-and-shoot.
A motorised cutter that holds enemies in place and shreds them in a single sustained swing — one of the deadliest melee weapons in San Andreas. Find one at the Hardware Store in Angel Pine, in Sweet's house, or scattered around the desert.
