How Baseball Bat and Desert Eagle stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

The franchise's signature street weapon — a wooden bat that stuns and downs pedestrians in two or three swings. Used in early Grove Street missions and easy to pick up around basketball courts, baseball diamonds, and gang turf.

A hand-cannon .44 that drops most enemies in one or two shots and stays useful into the endgame. Available at Ammu-Nation from San Fierro onward, with maxed Pistol skill unlocking a tighter sway.
