How Brass Knuckles and Satchel Charges stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

A pair of brass knucks that turn CJ's unarmed punches into bone-breaking hits without changing his animation. The earliest melee upgrade in San Andreas — find them in alleys, on dead pedestrians, or at hidden pickups across Los Santos.

Player-detonated C4 packs paired with a separate remote trigger — place a stack, switch weapon, blow them on cue. Required reading for the Las Venturas heists and several Toreno missions.
