How AK-47 and Molotov Cocktail 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 petrol-filled bottle that bursts into a lingering pool of fire — perfect for area denial and burning gang members alive. Frequently dropped by Ballas during turf wars and unlocked at Ammu-Nation early in the story.
