How AK-47 and Sniper Rifle 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 high-magnification PSG-1-style sniper rifle that one-shots almost any enemy with a head or torso hit. Unlocked at Ammu-Nation after "Madd Dogg's Rhymes" and central to several Las Venturas heist setups.
