Read the table as a dated reference
The table below reproduces factual numeric entries from the November 7 games.gg guide in the supplied research. They have not been checked in game and are explicitly unverified. “Base value” is not a promise that every vendor sells the item for that amount. Server progression, shop context and later balancing make it unsafe to treat a single number as a live checkout quote.
We keep the eight entries in the source order, not a performance ranking. A high purchase value, a large magazine and high damage per shot answer different questions. The source set does not provide a controlled recoil, handling, armor or time-to-kill comparison. Multiplying two visible stats would not solve those missing variables, so this site does not publish a “best gun” verdict from this table.
Eight reported weapons · games.gg · 7 November 2026
All rows below: secondary reporting, unverified. Damage is per shot; RPM means rounds per minute. Names and marks follow games.gg, even where another guide disagrees.
| Weapon | Type | Damage | RPM | Magazine | Base value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DP-9 Mk1 | Pistol | 18 | 333 | 14 | $300 |
| MC-10 Mk1 | SMG | 12 | 667 | 20 | $3,500 |
| CB45 Mk1 | SMG | 14 | 545 | 25 | $3,780 |
| KL-545 Mk1 | Assault rifle | 15 | 600 | 30 | $6,000 |
| PDW90 Mk1 | SMG | 13 | 857 | 50 | $30,800 |
| Vulture 50 Mk1 | Pistol | 36 | 240 | 7 | $50,000 |
| AP Scalar Mk3 | SMG (Power Up Gaming) | 14 | 1,000 | 45 | $115,000 |
| LM 249 Mk2 | Type not independently confirmed | 18 | 706 | 200 | $209,600 |
Where do the two guides disagree?
games.gg calls the Vulture 50 a Mk1; Power Up Gaming calls it a Mk2. We have not resolved that discrepancy and do not silently combine the name from one source with a claim of official confirmation. For AP Scalar, games.gg says higher marks add capacity rather than damage: Mk1 and Mk2 have 25-round magazines, while the listed Mk3 has 45.
Power Up Gaming uses a more general upgrade framing for marks and describes the AP Scalar as legendary. That is not enough to establish a universal rule that every higher Mk always deals more damage. Compare the actual item’s current stats before purchasing. A mark label is part of the name, not a substitute for the values and behavior of that particular version.
Seller price and Black Market price are not interchangeable
Power Up Gaming reports AP Scalar at $345,000 from a seller and $115,000 from the Black Market. It also lists RC 5.56 at $96,000 versus $32,000. Those are two secondary examples; they do not prove a universal three-to-one pricing rule for every weapon. We do not apply an inferred multiplier to fill missing shop prices in the table.
The games.gg acquisition guide points to city loot, Lenny’s Black Market, sellers and a base laptop. It says the Black Market does not require a base. This is a sourced list of acquisition contexts, not an exact stock rotation or spawn map. The official November 4 notes add more starter-weapon spawn points but do not give their coordinates. We therefore cannot promise a specific gun at a specific location.
What changed for starter equipment?
The official November 4 announcement reversed the earlier playtest plan for a free pistol on every respawn. It instead reduced the basic pistol’s price and added spawn points for starter weapons. Fresh-server patrol cops were limited to pistols, with better equipment opening as the server aged. These rules are more useful for interpreting old loadout advice than a fabricated universal tier label.
For a first run, compare the cost and loss risk with the objective rather than buying the most expensive listed item. That is editorial budgeting advice, not a tested optimal loadout. The armor-and-bags page provides a separate dated price reference, and the masks guide explains why role and location affect what you lose. All weapon values should be rechecked against a newer official patch or current in-game listing before a major purchase.
