How .357 and Tear Gas stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

A Colt Python .357 revolver that drops most enemies in a single chest shot — at the cost of a slow reload and just six rounds per cylinder. Unlocked at Ammu-Nation once Tommy reaches the mainland.

A canister that releases a cloud of CS gas, making enemies cough and slowly take damage. Hard to find legitimately in 1986 Vice City — appears at VCPD lockers and via the in-game tear-gas cheat.
