How to pick up a weapon in GTA 5. GTA Online: how to lock a weapon in the selection wheel by default
Weapon GTA 5. In this guide you can familiarize yourself with the entire list of weapons available in the game and get acquainted with useful information, about data, properties and descriptions about them. The main weapon store has returned to GTA 5 Ammu-Nation. The name of the store comes from two terms “ammunition” and “nation” (“military equipment” and “nation”).
This is something of a parody, as is often the case when it comes to Rockstar Games. It is a parody that weapons can be obtained easily and without problems.
If we briefly describe the arsenal of available weapons in GTA 5 , then the words best suited here are “ everything you can imagine" Pistols, machine guns, machine guns, grenade launchers, grenades, mines, flamethrowers, sniper rifles and many many others. Please note that this arsenal is constantly growing with the release of new updates.
Overall, the positive feelings from the game have increased noticeably. If we add to this the first-person mode, which was introduced in GTA 5 only on new generation consoles and PCs, then we can say with confidence that the game not only surpassed the previous parts of the series and its closest competitors, but also set a new bar in the development of the global gaming industry.

GTA weapons Online. Finally, it's possible to lock the default weapon selection in GTA Online, so you don't have to go through all the guns every time you start the game.
There are many small bugs in GTA Online that cause some inconvenience to players every day. One of the biggest “inconveniences” of this kind is that until today there was no way to set the default weapon in the gun selection wheel.
Every time you start a new session in GTA Online, you need to scroll through all your weapons in each category and only then proceed directly to the game. GTA Online never remembers your choices.
But now we are happy to report that this is a thing of the past. Rockstar finally reached out to players and announced a method that will allow you to record your weapon choice. It's not perfect, but it's still worth the effort in our opinion.
Here's how it's done:
- Enter the single player campaign
- Open the weapon selection wheel and select the one you want to use in each of the eight categories
- Press the up key on the joystick and open your phone, go to the "Quick Saves" section and create a new save
- Return to GTA Online, and you will see in front of you in the weapon selection wheel exactly the guns that you installed in Story mode.
If you have not unlocked or purchased a weapon in Story Mode, it will not be available to install by default in GTA Online, please keep that in mind. Additionally, weapons that are not available in single player, such as the Combat PDW, cannot be set as the default weapon in the GTA Online selection wheel.
What do you think about it? Share your opinion in the comments.
GTA would be an ordinary arcade racing game if it didn't have a single weapon. The more powerful the weapon, the better. Judging by the materials provided to us, there will be more than enough weapons in GTA 5. According to journalists who saw a demo of GTA 5 and talked with the developers, the game will have more weapons than any other game in the series. Moreover, information was confirmed that the weapon can be improved. Let's look at everything in order.
However, even if the game is quite tough and also very violent, it still feels like it just belongs to it. There's still something to the game, be it chases with various gangs or cops or crazy filming. Of course, the heroes’ capabilities in these situations are related. The weapon is selected from already launched weapons. You can buy weapons from selected stores or buy them from fallen enemies. The game still uses a health bar system for each hero, which is still a little old school, but given game process, this is perhaps the most feasible way.
Steel arms
Baseball bat
The classic baseball bat has been in the series since GTA 3, but we have not yet used it for its intended purpose in any of the games in the series.
Baton
In the very first trailer, you can see that the police have rubber batons hanging from their belts, with which they can quickly subdue any scoundrel. Unfortunately, they were not in GTA 4, but they were present in previous games in the series. Most likely, they will be in GTA 5.
A collection of medical boxes can be found here. It is true, however, that in a cloak life is returned up to 50% of the total cost. Regarding weapons, we must also say that they can be modified. So, even if you have the same weapon already in your arsenal, that doesn't mean you can't pick it up again with some upgrades like a flashlight, sights, suppressor, scopes, and more.
In the fifth part, there is nothing strange in the fact that you will die even with some kind of penis. Are you driving without a helmet on your head? So, expect that if you send him into a wall somewhere and your main character moves forward, there is a risk that he will end up on the wall, resulting in death. Waterfalls and even lower heights can also take your life away, just as someone can easily shoot you, cross you, and as a last resort you can kill wild beast in a desert. A good way to avoid suffering in missions is the ability to switch characters.
Hammer
A man hammers a house for sale sign into the lawn. Maybe you could hit someone on the head with this hammer?
Golf club
On the playground, the guys play golf, with a club, of course. Well, since there is a stick in the game, it is quite likely that you can hit it not only at the ball, but also at the heads of stupid opponents.
If you see that Franklin is bad enough, for example, you'll switch to Michael and the game will take care of Franklin. The characters themselves, unless you're playing them, can only die in circumstances that you have to get in time, otherwise it's not a threat.
The story was shallow, a kind of copy of New York, dry and unpretentious, and therefore remained the most popular work in San Andreas. And then it came perfect solution authors. Why create new map? Serving old well-known places in a new form and in a different period, they have been deceiving around the game for a long time. San Andreas was simply perfect and nutritious. With great curiosity, even after dozens of hours, you have no problem playing and enjoying the game.
Tennis racquet
Guys play tennis in the courtyard of their house. Perhaps there will be a mini-game related to tennis in GTA 5. How about hitting someone in the dome with a tennis racket?
Pistols
Glock 20L
In one of the screenshots, Trevor is holding a pistol in his hand that strongly resembles a Glock 20L or HK MK23.
The rendering is incredible and detailed.
Of course, the game can't be measured by some of the other items, but for its complexity and size it has an excellent engine. It's detailed and the whole picture is absolutely sharp. Everything works in incredible detail. You will see a wet track on the road if you are out there somewhere, and characters will be wet if they fall into water and gradually dry out. On them you will find agitated sand on the asphalt surface. The explosive effects are absolutely brilliant and give a sense of realism more than ever before.
Beretta 92FS
And this is undoubtedly a semi-automatic Beretta 92FS.
Colt M1911
In the GTA 5 art, Franklin is holding a Colt M1911.
Unknown pistol
In this screenshot, Trevor is running with some strange pistol. Unfortunately, we cannot recognize this model. This could be a Heckler & Koch Mark 23, Glock 20L or Glock 17L. All three pistols are semi-automatic.
The water looks wonderful, especially at sea, where there are good waves, and you finally feel like you are standing on the beach and looking at the real ocean. The game runs smoothly. While there are problems here, we don't have much experience with them. Sometimes the game freezes for about 2 seconds, but only happens once every 3 hours of play, or sometimes it doesn't fully texture somewhere, which makes the side and rear view visible. However, the game does not suffer from any loyalty. The only big one is at the very beginning, and then the loess is hidden.
They either hide discreetly behind mission scenes or take a small load when you switch between characters, but the game feels like nothing is happening. We can confirm with a clear conscience that this is incorrect or accidental. If you walk through the city, where it is most visible due to the occasional columns, you will find that there are actually a lot of cars. However, it's surprising that other drivers don't really bother themselves. If there is a collision, it is usually your fault.
Slot machines
And here is a screenshot of a jet ski. The Rider uses the Uzi to shoot back at his pursuers.
MP5 A5
But in this art the hero is holding an MP5 A5 in his hands.
Assault rifles
As for pedestrians, there are also a lot of pedestrians here. It's relatively common to see small groups enjoying or actively engaged in some kind of activity, and the frequency of foot traffic is really high. Los Santos is a very busy place and you rarely have to meet or miss a car. Events didn't seem to be a major issue as there are 17 music stations that play songs for you to check out. The authors managed to create excellent music even during missions, when the music is just a kind of accompaniment.
Norinco Type 56-2
In the first GTA 5 trailer, the heroes are robbing jewelry shop with a Chinese AK-47 clone at the ready. To be precise, in the hands of the heroes we see a Norinco Type 56-2 with a folding stock. This is also called the “Chinese AK-47”. Please note that the weapon is equipped with a silencer. The silencer can be installed on many guns.
Before we even finish the review, we'll say a little more about the single and multiplayer modes. For a single player, expect the story campaign to take you around 25-30 hours, and on the other hand you'll probably get to No, and if you want platinum you can stop at 100 hours. Multiplayer, as the authors promised, will bring a fundamentally new game. This will launch in October and will take you back to the entire map, where you can meet up to 15 other online players in different modes and modes.
Once multiplayer is available, we will cover it in another separate article where we will try to bring you the full experience of this online parade. The set-up for this game must have been truly atrocious, especially since nothing in the game is repetitive except for the random challenges that pop up here.
AR-15 SBR
In this GTA 5 art, Trevor is holding an AR-15 SBR rifle.
IMI Tavor TAR-21
But this weapon is in the downloadable add-on for Max Payne 3, although it looks a little different there and is called the TAR-21 assault rifle.
But the experience of this game will take many players and will not forget it. However, for other players, it is a model of what an ideal and incredibly expansive sandbox should look like. The idea is, of course, the sixth part of the series. According to speculation, we may have a different environment than America, which sounds great. What else can I say or write? There are certain flies that will not allow the maximum score, but cannot be considered particularly innovative compared to unique games. But what it offers players is invigorating and brilliant.
No big complaints here. Successful photography comes from an adequate level of understanding. If you want to be successful, you need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of many types of weapons and their roles in a variety of situations. Look for us to see when you are going to buy and equip these guns, and be sure to tape our floor to get more information and advice.
Heckler & Koch HK416
In one of the frames of the trailer you can see a man with a Heckler & Koch HK416 rifle. This is a modification of the Colt M4 with a gas piston from Heckler & Koch G36.
M249 SAW
During the robbery of a cash-in-transit armored car, our heroes use one of the varieties of the M249 SAW light machine gun, which is in service with the US Army.
Moving clockwise from the top, my options. If you get to 120, you've been playing for hundreds of hours, so you probably deserve it. Keep a grenade as your all-purpose explosive, but be sure to properly understand the roles of other thrown weapons.
- Use the Sniper Rifle to increase range.
- The choice of weapon in close combat does not matter much.
- Until then, stick to the grenade launcher.
You're almost always better off using an assault rifle. There's a reason the game gives you one in the fourth round of survival. However, really the only circumstances you should use a machine gun over an assault rifle against human targets is if you need full stopping power at the later end of mid-range or you have an ammo problem.
Shotguns
Mossberg 590A1 Tactical Tri-Rail
Here's Franklin with a cool face patch and an equally cool Mossberg 500 Cruiser Tactical shotgun.
In the May screenshot, we had the opportunity to see this shotgun in Michael’s hands:
There's something weird about this class. It also has a slightly longer range. A special carbine is my machine gun. Completely deceived, this is a devastating weapon, a truly multi-purpose weapon capable of taking on the toughest tasks that have no problem counting head shots down range.
Straight up: they are better weapons. There's not much choice here. The main sniper rifle is unlocked at rank 21, but the heavy sniper does not appear until further rank. It has the best fire rate of any of the three sniper rifles, and the payback is relatively small, without scaling. There are two schools of thought in the shotgun class. The first one is based on one-shot kills. This is typically used for a situation where you are trying to deliver as much damage as possible to a hard target within a very close range.
Sniper rifles
Fictional sniper
This fictional sniper rifle is assembled from parts of famous snipers such as the AR-15, L96 AWP and others.
Homing missiles
One of the GTA 5 screenshots shows a military fighter destroying a helicopter using missiles. They will definitely be in the game, because they can be seen in the second GTA 5 trailer and in other, later screenshots.
The second wants to sacrifice immediate takeoff for increased firing rate and longer range. The pistol you choose will depend on your playstyle and the situation you find yourself in. The obvious, correct overall choice in this category is Assault. This beast of a pistol has a 32-round extended clip and shoots full-auto, making it pretty hard to beat.
This is the speed and range of fire at the expense of damage. It was added with the last man update and looks good on paper as it does more damage than shooting assault weapons, but it suffers from significant fall damage in range and the mage only extends to 12 rounds. So yes: Attack in general, Bullpup for “personal” work.
Minigun M134
This heavy minigun will cause real chaos on the streets of Los Santos. It is capable of firing from 2000 to 6000 rounds per minute. Only a well-trained special forces unit can stop such combat power.
RPG-7 grenade launcher
Despite the fact that the hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher (or RPG for short) was invented in the Soviet Union, it is an effective and popular weapon to this day. With its help, you can set up an ideal ambush for a cash-in-transit vehicle or send any cop to the moon with one shot, without even having to get out of his car.
You won't even get a heavy weapon until you get a grenade launcher at rank. Even when you hit 100, you're probably going to hold onto the grenade launcher. It has the ability to turn even the most desperate situation into a complete bloodbath, and even one well-placed shot can save any day.
It's the most powerful weapon in the game by so many miles, a pistol that turns police choppers into instant matches. Everyone else transmutes into pieces of exploding meat when you finally get your hands on one of them. Remember that while you are aiming with another weapon. Check out the rest of our site for more information and recommendations.
Explosives
Fuel cans
And here is a screenshot that shows that gasoline cans can most likely be used as auxiliary weapons. We throw them at our opponents and explode them.
Molotov cocktail
Well, everyone, of course, noticed our favorite Molotov cocktail.
Weapon statistics are located in the upper right corner of the screen. In situations where you have more of the same type, you switch between them using the left and right arrow buttons. Also pay close attention to where you shoot. When you shoot at the radar, you will notice a small red circle that determines the range of the arrow's sound. Every opponent within range will react to the shot and be aware of your presence. In addition, if there are police in the vicinity of the gayasu, they are also interested in the shooters.
Grenades
Of course, the developers couldn’t forget about ordinary hand grenades. They will definitely be in GTA 5, this was reported by journalists from the May previews.
Plastid C4
With the help of plastid, our heroes will be able to quickly eliminate almost any obstacle in their path.
Weapon customization
As we noted above, in some frames various gadgets for weapons were seen, including silencers and laser designators. Interestingly, in one of the robbery shots in the first GTA 5 trailer, two AK-47s can be seen mounted with flashlights. It is noteworthy that the third weapon does not have a flashlight. Could this mean that weapons in GTA 5 will actually be customizable? It definitely can.
Our initial conclusions turned out to be correct: GTA 5 will indeed have a weapon customization system. This was confirmed by the May previews. According to people who saw the GTA 5 demo and spoke with Rockstar developers personally, weapon customization will take place in Ammu-Nation stores. Players will be able to install laser pointers, new sights, silencers and larger capacity magazines, and other bells and whistles.
Silencers
Even in the first trailer, it was seen how the heroes use silencers, which will allow them to quickly and silently carry out almost any robbery.
Laser pointers
One of the screenshots shows a SWAT officer aiming what appears to be a laser-sighted weapon from an LCPD helicopter. The picture is quite unclear, so it is impossible to predict this gun, but there is a high probability that a laser designator can be installed on some weapons.
Weapon selection system
In Grand Theft Auto 4, weapons could be selected using normal scrolling. In addition, the hero could carry very few weapons with him compared to GTA San Andreas. All guns were divided into groups, and the player was only allowed to select one weapon from each group. Groups were divided into melee weapons, light firearms, rifles, shotguns, etc. Most weapons had improved counterparts. For example, for a pistol, a combat pistol acted as such an analogue.
GTA 4 also used a simplified version of the weapon wheel, with which you could quickly access your existing weapons. This wheel has evolved significantly in Red Dead Redemption. There it already allowed you to switch between groups of weapons, and you could carry with you everything you picked up main character. For each group, you could choose a default weapon, which you can switch to most quickly during battle.
GTA 5 heroes will not be able to carry all the weapons they find. However, from the May previews it became known that you will be able to carry with you even those weapons for which you do not have a single cartridge in your ammunition.
Where can I get weapons?
In GTA 4, the developers completely abandoned the Ammu-Nation weapons network they had invented, leaving only small weapon cellars. Well, by making friends with Jacob or other characters, the main character could get a significant discount in these stores. Luckily, previews have shown that Ammu-Nation stores will be returning in GTA 5.
As for the guns dropped from killed enemies, in GTA 4 they glowed orange, and in Red Dead Redemption they glowed with a bright white light. Most likely, the same weapon lighting system will return in GTA 5.
Dogs as weapons?
In one of the pieces of art we can clearly see how the hero is holding an angry Rottweiler on a chain. We saw dogs back in the first trailer for GTA 5, so their appearance in the game has long been out of question. But can they be used as weapons? Or maybe the police will use them against our heroes?
Apparently, there will be more than enough weapons in GTA 5. There will be a lot in the game firearms, including pistols, shotguns, rifles, sniper rifles and RPGs. Most likely, there will be no less bladed weapons. I wonder if the rubber dick from GTA will return San Andreas?
In the games of the GTA series, weapons have always played a very important role, because you constantly need to defend yourself or attack those people who need to be eliminated on assignment. So you definitely need to have a fast car and powerful weapons with you. With each new release in the series, both the number of cars and the variety of different guns that you can use grows. And in the fifth part there are already more than fifty of them - and each of them has its own parameters, its own cost, as well as certain possibilities for improvement. You can easily exchange one gun for another, since in this game there is no specific limit on the number of guns you can carry with you. But the question of where to get a weapon is more complicated, since you can either purchase it, find it, or take it from someone who has it, if possible. There are also rare ones in the game that you will have to look for much longer, but it is really worth it. In GTA 5, weapons are a real joy for an amateur because they are extremely varied, and most importantly, you can use all types with equal effectiveness.
Melee Weapons
You start the game, naturally, without any special weapons. In GTA 5, weapons will appear to you as you progress, unless, of course, you want to enter codes. But this will ruin both your statistics and your entire interest in the game, so it’s better to achieve everything yourself. So, with your hands you can deliver fairly fast blows, but at the same time they will take away very little health from your opponents. Of course, this method is suitable for acquiring initial capital and purchasing at least the simplest gun. But fists are far from the only way to conduct close combat. You can also arm yourself with a knife, baton, hammer, baseball bat or even a tire iron - in the tradition of Gordon Freeman. Each weapon has its own unique stats, such as damage, impact speed and range. Naturally, the last indicator is valid only for long-range weapons. In general, as you can see, weapons in GTA 5 are very diverse, so you will find something to attack the enemy with.
Pistols
The simplest firearms in this game are pistols. There are several different types, so you can choose something to suit your taste. However, in GTA 5, weapons have their own characteristics - this has already been said earlier. Therefore, you need to focus not only on but also on how this or that gun can benefit you. For example, an armor-piercing pistol has a huge rate of fire, but does not deal the highest damage. But a fifty-caliber pistol does quite a lot of damage, has high accuracy, but is also extremely slow. In general, you will be able to get your bearings on the spot which weapon you would like to use in a particular case. But you must understand that pistols are only basic weapons, they are unbalanced and do not have high accuracy, so you better move on to more powerful types of guns in GTA 5 as soon as possible. How to throw away a weapon to replace it with another? Unfortunately, this cannot be done, but this does not apply to different classes. More precisely, you can have one gun of each class, but you will not be able to exchange one gun of one class for another of the same class. It’s not very convenient, but the developers decided to do just that.
Submachine guns
Are you tired of pistols and have you decided to switch to submachine guns in GTA 5? Where can I find weapons of this type? In fact, you won't have to look long because there are only three models in total, and they are constantly available in stores. But you should think twice before buying such a weapon. If you find it on the street or take it from a defeated enemy, you can use it, but you shouldn't buy it. The fact is that submachine guns do not have the highest damage, low accuracy and stand out only for their high rate of fire. So it cannot be said that this weapon will be very effective. Actually, their firing range is also poor, so you’d better think about another weapon class. Of course, there are improvements for submachine guns, as well as for other types of weapons, but it is unlikely that you will be able to create something incredible from such guns in GTA 5. “Getting a better weapon - is it possible?” - this is the question that should concern you.
Assault rifles
Assault rifles are practically the most better weapons in Game. Of course, many would like to immediately jump to such guns in the PC game. Weapons could help you with this if they existed. Unfortunately, you need to download all the codes, but among them there will still not be one that would give you access to any weapon, as was the case in previous episodes of the series. Thus, you will have to obtain your assault rifles yourself. They are really worth it because compared to submachine guns they deal more damage with greater range and accuracy, and also have a faster rate of fire in most models. Believe me, you won't need cheat codes - in GTA 5, finding weapons that are not rare is very easy, and it won't take you much time to complete this task.
Light machine guns
Time to move on to more powerful guns, which will require you to spend a lot of money if you decide to purchase them legally, but at the same time you can become a real threat to Liberty City. If the Internet writes about weapons from GTA 5 for GTA: San Andreas, then these guns are mentioned first of all, because they are really impressive and give you incredible firepower. They are good at everything - damage, rate of fire, firing range, and even accuracy. And if you add certain upgrades to them, you will get a real one. Of course, weapons are very desirable, largely due to the fact that they can be purchased light machine gun It won’t be long before you succeed, but you want to use it from the very first minutes.
Shotguns
Another type of weapon, which is one of the most popular not only in this game, but also in many others. In GTA 5 PC, weapons are valued for different characteristics, and if we talk about shotguns, then, of course, guns are inferior in absolutely all respects - their firing range is minimal, accuracy is very low, they shoot extremely slowly. But at the same time, they have one advantage that you can use wisely - at short distances, shotguns cause incredible damage. So a properly used shotgun compensates for absolutely all its shortcomings. And this is where one of the most pressing questions of GTA 5 arises - how to change weapons? After all, among shotguns there is an assault model, which still has the same high damage, but automatic reloading, which provides it with a very high increase in rate of fire. And the only way you can exchange a regular shotgun for an assault one is to get caught by the police. Then your weapon will be confiscated, and you will be able to take the one that interests you. It's sad that this is the only option, but nothing can be done about it.
Sniper rifles
All the types of weapons described above are suitable for open firefights, that is, in battles on equal terms. But you can attack enemies without being seen - that’s what sniper rifles are for. They have maximum damage, maximum firing range and maximum accuracy, but also fire extremely slowly. Thus, it is a long-range shotgun. Both of these types of weapons cannot be used except in those cases for which they are intended: a shotgun at close ranges, and a sniper at long ranges.
Heavy weapons and explosives
Well, that's practically all the weapons that are present in the game. All you have to do is learn about the most powerful and most expensive weapons that you will encounter, and at the same time about the largest. The last class includes guns such as a grenade launcher, rocket launcher or minigun. Also pay attention to a variety of explosives - grenades, Molotov cocktails and bombs will help you in certain situations.
In this article you can get acquainted with what weapons are available in GTA 5. We will not only list all kinds of weapons, but also provide detailed combat characteristics of each type of weapon in GTA 5 and GTA 5 Online.
If you have already played GTA 5, then you most likely noticed that weapons in this game are the most valuable resource along with money. A cool gun and ammo for it are not easy to come by, and going on a mission without being armed to the teeth is almost always tantamount to suicide.
GTA 5 where to find weapons
Where can you get weapons in GTA 5? There are 3 options. First, you can buy weapons from the Ammu-Nation store. This is the simplest option. But keep in mind that weapons cost money, and at the beginning of the game the range of available guns is very limited. Secondly, you can pick up the weapons of opponents defeated by you (or other participants in the game). For example, killed cops always drop a gun. Finally, thirdly, you can find weapons and body armor, which the developers hid in special places on the map. To help you with this, we have prepared weapons and armor map.
And if you want to get everything at once, use it!
Each weapon in GTA 5 has a number of characteristics. These include:
1) Accuracy(bullet spread)
2) Range
3) Fire rate
4) Damage dealt
An additional characteristic of a firearm is the clip capacity.
The weapon selection interface was transferred to GTA 5 from another game from Rockstar – Max Payne 3. Now, when choosing what to kill the enemy with, a circle appears on your screen, divided into 8 sectors. Each sector is a slot for a specific type of weapon. Thus, there are 8 types of weapons in total:
1) Cold weapon
2) Pistols
3) Slot machines
4) Shotguns
5) Assault rifles
6) Sniper rifles
7) Heavy weapons (machine guns and RPGs)
8) Grenades and bombs
For the first time in the Grand Theft Auto series, almost every weapon can be modified. The list of available improvements is as follows:
1) Enlarged clip
2) Additional handle
3) Underbarrel flashlight
4) Optical sight
5) Muffler
6) Color change
All upgrades made affect the characteristics and usability of a particular weapon. For example, additional handle will reduce the spread of bullets when shooting (increase accuracy), A muffler will help not to attract attention while shooting (at the same time Damage dealt will decrease). Carrying out all modifications of any game weapon is a necessary condition for obtaining achievements“Pump up the gun.”
The number of weapons available in the game is constantly increasing with the release of new patches and additions, so this article will be updated over time.
GTA 5 weapons
Let's look at the weapons currently available in GTA 5.
Steel arms
1. Arms and legs.
At the beginning of the game, you will practically not have any serious weapons, so the ability to swing your limbs will definitely come in handy.

3. Broken bottle.
“Rose” made from a bottle will become available after installing the “Beach Lazy” add-on. Can be obtained for free at the weapon store.

5. Mount.
A fairly rare weapon, comparable in characteristics to a hammer.
6. Rubber baton.
The classic police baton, which, however, the cops in GTA 5 for some reason do not use - they prefer to immediately fire from cannons. Less effective than a knife.

Probably the most popular weapon for street fights. The most effective melee weapon in GTA 5. Not sold in stores. But the bat can be found on the weapon and armor map.
