The two battle rifles ( Fleisher AR-5 Blizzard and Lance FDL) have different advantages, the Blizzard has a 60 round magazine, and the Lance has a scope. Battle rifles are more powerful than assault rifles, and are automatic, but have a lower rate of fire.
The most commonly found is the Adler FF M-72 which every faction will use for at least one type of situation whether that would be patrols, firefights or liberations/sidemissions. Either found at safehouses or during liberations or fast-paced missions. They're effective against most infantry type enemies. Assault rifles are mid powered, automatic weapons with a medium rates of fire and a 30 round magazine.Montanos use them for most liberations apart from liberations that involve a very worthy villa, such as one near Esperito City that has the armed version of The Vampire within one of the garages of the villa. Nearly every faction uses them, Guerrillas use them in nearly every situation, Riojas only use them in liberations and the law enforcement/government use them at medium wanted levels. They're best suited for low level or lightly armored enemies. Submachine guns can be one or two handed, have 30 round magazines and are reasonably low powered, but they have a very high rate of fire.The Rioja Cartel patrols use them frequently and so do patrolling police. But they are still best suited for backup roles or dealing with low level law enforcement or Montano soldiers. Revolvers are slighty more powerful than pistols.They are quite common weapons that are found either at safehouses or when a low ranking Guerrilla has been killed. They're best suited for backup roles or dealing with low level law enforcement or Montano soldiers. Pistols are low powered, one handed weapons.The player does not need to scroll through the other slots, to get to them.įor those big black heavy machine guns that are mounted on vehicles, guard towers and cartel villa balconies, see: Mounted Gun. 10: Grenades are in a completely separate slot.9: The remote control for the triggered explosive.5: C - Large weapons (see the table below).4: B - Medium weapons (see the table below).The number of hits needed to kill depends on the target. When standing close enough, Rico will hit the center of the victims chest. (Note: Whenever Rico is close enough and facing another person, instead of firing his weapon, he will punch or kick the person.) This list shows them in the order that they appear in game: Those 3 are the ones where the player can swap weapons. Just Cause has 10 equipment slots, but only 3 slots are assigned letters. There's a total of 18 hand held weapons and 3 thrown or placed explosives in Just Cause. For the weapons in Just Cause 2, see: Category: Just Cause 2 Weapons.
