Every Confirmed GTA 6 Weapon: 18 With Real Evidence, Including Four Rockstar Has Named

Search "GTA 6 weapons list" and you will find pages with forty, fifty, sixty entries. Most of them are wrong, and they are wrong in a specific way: the long lists are padded with weapon names that exist only inside leaked and datamined files, presented with the same confidence as things Rockstar has actually put on screen.

We rebuilt this page from scratch under one rule: a weapon counts only if the evidence is first-party. That means Rockstar naming it in its own copy, or the weapon being visible in a Rockstar trailer, an official screenshot, or the Extended Look. Nothing from the 2022 hack, nothing from the 2026 leaks, nothing from a datamine.

By that standard there are 18 GTA 6 weapons with real evidence behind them, four of which Rockstar has actually named, and at least 15 circulating names that fail it. Here is the full list with the official images, followed by exactly what we excluded and how you can check our work.

How we counted

Three tiers of evidence, strongest first:

1. Rockstar named it. The item appears by name in Rockstar's own copy, currently the Grand Theft Auto VI editions page. This is the only tier where the name itself is official.
2. Rockstar showed it. The weapon is visible in Trailer 1, Trailer 2, an official screenshot on Rockstar's own site, or the Extended Look. The weapon is real; the name attached to it is usually a community identification.
3. Series staple, not yet shown. Weapons GTA has always had that Rockstar has not put on screen for GTA 6. Listed separately, not counted as confirmed.

Everything whose only trace is leaked material is excluded and listed at the bottom by name, so you can see what we left out rather than wonder.

Tier 1: the weapons Rockstar has named

Four GTA 6 weapons have names that come from Rockstar rather than from the community. Three are in Rockstar's own copy on the Grand Theft Auto VI site. The fourth is better than copy: the game itself puts the name on screen.

Moreland 850 Shotgun

This is the strongest weapon name in GTA 6 right now, and as far as we can tell nobody has written it up. During the Extended Look, the player walks over a dropped shotgun and the game renders a pickup prompt: L1, MORELAND 850 SHOTGUN. That is not marketing copy and not a community identification. It is the game's own weapon name, in Rockstar's own footage, in Rockstar's HUD typeface.

Moreland is a previously undocumented in-world firearms brand, and the gun it names is the pump-action that recurs throughout the presentation, including in the hands of the shopkeeper below and in the HUD with six rounds loaded.

Hawk & Little Morgan Revolvers

A pair of large-frame revolvers, listed by Rockstar among the Ultimate Edition benefits under the heading "Hawk & Little Morgan Revolvers". Rockstar's own description, verbatim: "His and hers versions of this powerful revolver with classic Vice City stylings sourced from the Vercetti Estate, including palm-tree-etched grips, engraved detailing, and high-performance scope."

Two things in that sentence are worth stopping on. "His and hers" confirms these are a matched pair, one for Jason and one for Lucia, which is what the screenshot shows: a scoped stainless revolver and an engraved blued one. And "sourced from the Vercetti Estate" is a direct callback to Tommy Vercetti's mansion from the original Vice City, the first hard link Rockstar has drawn between GTA 6's items and the 1986 game. Hawk & Little is the firearms brand that has run through the HD-era GTA games, so here both brand and model are Rockstar's.

The switchblade

Rockstar's own image caption for the revolvers ends: "Pictured with a switchblade and ammo." The open folding knife is visible in that screenshot, lying on banded cash beside the guns. "Switchblade" is Rockstar's word, though it is a prop named in a caption rather than an edition item, so treat it as shown and named rather than as a confirmed equippable weapon.

Girardi ES9 and Klose K17, the two protagonists' pistols

Under a heading Rockstar labels "Personalized Variants", its own copy reads, verbatim: "Personalized sidearms with detailed engravings for Jason's Girardi ES9 pistol and Lucia's Klose K17 pistol."

That single sentence names two more weapons and gives each protagonist a signature sidearm. Jason carries the Girardi ES9, the hammer-fired, open-top-slide pistol in the Beretta 92 tradition. Lucia carries the Klose K17, a striker-fired polymer pistol in the Glock tradition, shown here with a crimson frame. Girardi and Klose are both new Rockstar in-world brands, sitting alongside Hawk & Little for revolvers and Moreland for shotguns.

This also settles something our own database had wrong. The Glock-pattern pistol circulates on weapon lists under a name that traces to leaked files; Rockstar has actually named it, and the name is Klose K17.

The Vintage Vice City Pack weapon finish

The Vintage Vice City Pack is a pre-order bonus, and Rockstar's screenshots for it include a weapon finish applied across a pistol and a compact automatic weapon. Rockstar has not published a name for the individual guns here, so treat this as evidence of the finish and of the weapon classes, not as two named entries.

Tier 2: the weapons Rockstar has shown

These appear in official Rockstar material: trailers, the official screenshots on Rockstar's own site, or official video. Rockstar has not published names for them, so where a name appears in the table it is a community identification of what is on screen, with one exception directly below.

Mustang .357, the name written on the gun

In Rockstar's official Ambrosia screenshot, a biker wearing an ENFORCER patch holds a large-frame revolver across his chest. Enlarge the barrel at native resolution and the roll mark is legible: MUSTANG .357. Rockstar has not put that name in any copy, but it modelled it onto the weapon in its own published art, which puts it a tier above a community guess and a tier below the four named above.

Two names in that table are stronger than the rest. Duke Arms Company and Capo are manufacturer names legible in Rockstar's own screenshots, which is why the Duke carbine, Duke special ops carbine and Duke assault sniper rifle are grouped as one family. Duke Arms is doing for rifles in GTA 6 what Hawk & Little does for handguns.

Handguns

Pistols dominate the official material. Between Trailer 1's artwork, the Jason Duval and Raul Bautista screenshots, the car-trunk video and the Extended Look, semi-automatic handguns appear more than any other class, which fits a game whose opening hours are robberies rather than firefights.

Shotguns

There are two distinct shotguns in the official material: a double-barrelled one in a Grassrivers screenshot, and a pump-action one that shows up repeatedly in the Extended Look, including in the hands of a shopkeeper defending his own store. The pump gun also appears in the HUD, which tells us something useful about how it works.

Rifles

The rifle used through the Extended Look's chase sequences is an AR-pattern carbine, and the HUD icon is specific enough to read: a carry-handle upper, fixed stock and a standard handguard.

A 40-round magazine stands out: it is larger than the 30-round standard the series usually uses for this class, which points to either a specific extended-magazine variant or a deliberate rebalance.

Melee

The melee list is the most reliably evidenced part of the whole catalogue, because Rockstar's location screenshots keep putting tools and sports equipment in frame: a baseball bat in Port Gellhorn, a hammer in Trailer 1, and a pool cue and mini golf club in the Cal Hampton screenshots. None is a surprise. All four are visible in first-party material, which is more than can be said for most of the melee weapons on other lists.

What the HUD tells you about the weapon system

Rockstar has not published a weapons menu, but the Extended Look's HUD is on screen for minutes at a time and it answers several questions:

• Ammo works as magazine plus reserve, displayed as two numbers: 40 and 300 for the carbine, 6 and 94 for the pump shotgun.
• The weapon icon sits under the ammo count, in the same corner as the wanted stars, so weapon switching is a visible HUD state rather than a menu you sit in.
• Six wanted stars are present in the HUD frame with four lit, confirming on screen what our Extended Look breakdown covered: the sixth star is back.
• Four small icons sit between the stars and the ammo, tracking companions, clothing, face and vehicle. That is the police-knowledge system we cover in the police overhaul explainer, and it is the reason changing clothes or swapping cars shakes pursuit.

Series staples Rockstar has not shown

These are on the GTA Wiki's GTA VI list without leak flags, but with no GTA 6 image behind them. They are almost certainly in the game, since every GTA has had them, but nothing first-party has shown them yet: crowbar, flashbangs, flashlight, grenades, knife, Molotov cocktails. Treat them as expected, not confirmed.

What we excluded, and why

This is the part other lists leave out. The following names circulate widely in GTA 6 weapon lists, and the GTA Wiki's own pages flag them as sourced from leaked material rather than from anything Rockstar has shown:

Bolt Action Sniper, Compact Submachine Gun, Fire Bottle, Golf Balls, Golf Driver, Golf Iron, Golf Putter, Golf Wedge, Heavy Machine Gun, Hunter Sniper, Micro Submachine Gun, Polymer Pistol, RPG, Smoke Grenades, Speargun.

That is fifteen entries, and it is why rival lists run so much longer than this one. Some of these will certainly turn out to be in the finished game. That is not the point: the point is that as of today nobody outside Rockstar can show you first-party evidence for them, and a list that mixes the two kinds of entry without saying so is not a list you can rely on.

Two of them deserve a specific note, and one is the best illustration of why this distinction matters. The gun these lists call the "Polymer Pistol" is real and appears in official Rockstar screenshots. It also already has a name, and it is not that one: Rockstar calls it Lucia's Klose K17. A leak-derived label had been sitting on a weapon the developer had publicly named, which is how a list that does not check provenance ends up less accurate than one that does.

The second is a bolt-action rifle, which likewise does appear in an official screenshot under a name that came from leaked files, so we have described it by class rather than repeating it.

We also removed a batch of entries from our own database that pointed at generic, series-wide wiki pages rather than anything GTA 6 specific, which is how a "Carbine Rifle" or a "Pistol .50" ends up on a GTA 6 list without a single frame of GTA 6 behind it.

Check our work

Every provenance call above is reproducible. The GTA Wiki marks leak-sourced upcoming-game pages with a leaked=y flag in the page source, and its GTA VI weapon images are named by origin, so a filename containing OfficialScreenshot, PromotionalWebsite or Trailer tells you the image came from Rockstar. You can read any page's raw source through the wiki's API, for example gta.fandom.com/api.php?action=parse&page=Mustang_.357&prop=wikitext&format=json. Rockstar's own item names are on the Grand Theft Auto VI editions page, and the screenshots are on the official media page. Our own mirrored copies are in the GTA 6 screenshot library.

The bottom line

GTA 6 has four weapons Rockstar has named itself: the Moreland 850 Shotgun, whose name the game puts on screen in the Extended Look, the Hawk & Little Morgan Revolvers sourced from the Vercetti Estate, and the two protagonists' sidearms, Jason's Girardi ES9 and Lucia's Klose K17. Add the Mustang .357, whose name Rockstar rolled onto the barrel in an official screenshot, and thirteen more weapons visible in trailers, official screenshots and the Extended Look, and the total with real evidence behind it is eighteen. Everything else on a GTA 6 weapons list today traces back to material Rockstar never released. The full catalogue will not be knowable until November 19, 2026, and we will update this page as Rockstar shows more.

Update log

• September 23, 2026 (second revision): added the four weapons Rockstar has named itself after finding them in first-party material: the Moreland 850 Shotgun, named by the game's own pickup prompt in the Extended Look; the Girardi ES9 and Klose K17, named in Rockstar's site copy; and the full verbatim Morgan Revolvers description including the Vercetti Estate reference. Added the Mustang .357 barrel roll mark. Corrected the earlier version, which said Rockstar had named only the revolvers, and raised the confirmed count from 17 to 18.
• September 23, 2026: rebuilt the article from the ground up on a first-party-evidence-only standard, added official Rockstar images throughout, added the Rockstar-named Ultimate Edition weapons, added the Extended Look HUD analysis, and published the full list of excluded leak-sourced names with the method for checking each one. Also audited our own GTA 6 weapons database, which had leak-flagged and wrongly-tagged entries carrying a "confirmed" status.
• September 12, 2026: earlier revision.
