Saints Row weapons guide
Saints Row Weapons: assault rifles
K-8 Krukov AR
A reliable workhorse, the Krukov makes for a solid starting weapon, great for mowing down your enemies with reliable efficiency.
AR-55 Burst Rifle
Precise, accurate and efficient, this rifle will suit anyone who prefers controlled bursts of fire over the classic spray-and-pray.
.585 Safari Express Rifle
This single-shot rifle packs a serious punch, but it’s slow to reload. Best not to miss.
Saints Row Weapons: shotguns
AS3 Ultimax Shotgun
This accurate, rapid-fire shotgun makes up for a lack of damage output with sheer speed.

MDI-50 Tac Shotgun
An automatic, double action weapon, the Tac shotgun packs a serious wallop, if you can keep it pointed in the right direction.
Stagecoach Shotgun
With a slow reload time but extremely high stopping power, the Stagecoach Shotgun is a must if you want to finish fights quickly and brutally.
Sawed-Off Shotgun
A classic short-range lead thrower. Need we say more?
Police Shotgun
The Police Shotgun is a jack of all trades. Single barrelled with decent accuracy, it gets the job done.
Saints Row Weapons: SMGs
Machine Pistol SMG
Small but deadly, this classic SMG lets you spray-and-pray with impunity.
TEK Z-10 SMG
Somewhere between a traditional SMG and a rifle, this weapon sacrifices fire rate for accuracy.
D4th Blossom SMG
The D4th Blossom has a rate of fire bordering on the obscene. It’s a great weapon, provided you don’t mind where your bullets actually go.
1921 Johnson SMG
Easily the classiest SMG, the 1921 Johnson is refined, sophisticated and versatile.
Saints Row Weapons: pistols
KA-1 Kobra Pistol
This reliable starter pistol isn’t particularly exciting, but it’s a solid all-rounder nonetheless.
Idol Lite Pistol
Fast, agile and peppy, this rapid-fire pistol is sure to put a spring in your step.
Handcannon .44
Slow, heavy and powerful, the Handcannon can inflict some serious damage.
ElectroStun P1200
This shocking addition to your arsenal offers a more humane, but no less impressive solution to your problems.
MDI-39m Sixguns
This handheld missile launcher barely qualifies as a pistol, but the explosions are so satisfying that you won’t care.
Saints Row Weapons: melee weapons
Axe
Why not take this classic brawling implement out for a swing?
Crowbar
Whether it comes to opening boxes or chest cavities, the humble Crowbar will see you through.
MDI-12 Stun Baton
Far from a shocker, the Stun Baton will ensure your enemies stay down.
Machete
With its additional bleed damage, this classic implement of violence makes for a sharp choice.
Pickaxe
A visceral weapon to say the least, your enemies will be sure to get the point.
Sledgehammer
Sometimes, you need the ruthless application of blunt force to get the job done.
Smelterville Slugger
Great for delivering that killer strike. Batter up!
That covers it for every single weapon we’ve seen in the new Saints Row (so far). We can likely expect a lot more, on launch, but that’s certainly plenty to mull over. No matter your preferred means of violence, come release day, we’re sure you’ll be able to find a weapon to suit your personal tastes.
