All Weapons in Red Dead Redemption 2: Where to Find the Best Guns

In Red Dead Redemption 2, there is a vast array of weapons. They assist the protagonist in numerous tasks: train robberies, hunting animals, and completing crucial missions. There are over 50 unique types of weapons (both firearms and melee), and to complete the game 100%, you need to collect at least 48 of them. Today, we'll tell you where and how to find all the existing weapons in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Some guns can be purchased from gunsmiths, others need to be found during travels, and the rest are automatically unlocked by completing main missions.

All weapons are sorted by type (revolvers separately, shotguns separately, and so on). They are also divided by color:

1. Red — very easy to miss;

2. Blue — the weapon is located somewhere in the game world. Also easy to miss;

3. Green — can be bought from gunsmiths or obtained automatically. Easiest to acquire.
