How AK-47 and Flamethrower 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 back-mounted napalm sprayer with a continuous stream of flame — devastating against tight groups but useless against vehicles. Required in "Are You Going to San Fierro?" and sold at Las Venturas Ammu-Nation.
