2.0 Weapons
You Can only carry 8 weapons at a time:One fist weapon, one Melee
Weapon, one Pistol Weapon, one Sub-Machine Gun Weapon, one Shotgun
Weapon, one Heavy Machine Gun Weapon, one Explosive Weapon and one
Heavy Weapon.
As for my personal recommendations, I'd say:
Fist:Brass Knuckles
Melee:Chainsaw
Pistol:Colt Python
Sub-Machine Gun:MP5
Shotgun:SPAS-12 Shotgun
Heavy Machine Gun:M4
Rifle:PSG-1
Explosive:Anything other than Nerve Gas(make your own choice, I use
grenades)
Heavy Weapon:Anything other than the M60(Make your own choice, I use
the Rocket Launcher)

The Cool thing is, if you want to store any weapons then just enter either
Leaf Links or The Airport Terminal, then not pick them up outside! They
Stay there!

Weapons below are listed in my ranking, from worst to best IN EACH
CATEGORY, NOT OVERALL. Because in my opinion, the Brass
Knuckles are better than the Screwdriver, yet they are in different
categories.The categories are kinda listed in weakest to best, but
Explosives aren't really all that good.

- Points:Too slow say if you want to throw a load at the Army
Teini has also infromed me that there is a glitch where sometimes bombs

**************************************************************************

2.9 Heavy Weapons

I had an angry person(sorry, I really can't remember your name) tell me
that he thought the M60 was the best heavy weapon. It is down to personal
preference but I can't see the point if you have an M4.

M60
Description:Big Machine Gun
Where Do I find It?:Phil Cassidy's Trailer($8000)
Vs People:I see dead people.
Vs Vehicles:heh heh
+ Points:Kills everything, aim feature
- Points:Bullets are too slow for a machine gun, not damaging enough,
doesn't stand up to other heavy Weapons.Frankly, it'd have done
better if it were a heavy machine gun rather than a heavy weapon

Mini-Gun
Description:If you don't know what a Mini-Gun is, believe me, the
title is a joke.(watch Terminator 2 some time or play Metal Gear
Solid(NOT Metal Gear Solid 2))
Where Do I find It?:Phil Cassidy's Trailer ($10000)
Vs People:Mwhahahahahah
Vs Vehicles:Mwahahahahahah
+ Points:It's COOL, it kills anything in sight(other than tanks)
- Points:IF only it could shoot choppers
Wait just a minute! I have been informed by Ryan that if
you aim just under a chopper, you will then see the bullets
fly up and hit the thing! So, we need a new bad point. Hmmm, I
haven't yet tested the Mini-Gun vs Chopper thing yet, but I believe
what I have been told, but what I am wondering is that what if the
Mini-Gun has the same effect on choppers as the M4 has?(Ie 0) oh
and it is extremely weak against tanks, and there is no auto-aim

I have also been told by Matt Pinske about this, but he has tested
it and found it works with all weapons! but obviously Mini-Guns work
the best!

and Verizoton E-mailed me about this too, so everyone, I have been
told 3 times how stupid I am(not literally :) ) so don't tell me
again!

Flamethrower
Description:It's been in every GTA Game, so you should know what
it is by now.
Where Do I find It?:RockStar Logo-Shaped Pool on Starfish Island,
also one in Viceport.
Vs People:Burn them, burn them ALL
Vs Vehicles:Even kills tanks
+ Points:It kills everyone, including tanks(which is the only reason
why I rank it better than the Mini-Gun), it goes through walls, wide
area of effect.
- Points:No auto-aim, Using it on someone at close range is
incredibly stupid.

Rocket Launcher
Description:It Launches rockets, and has been in every GTA Game
Where Do I find It?:Phil Cassidy's Trailer, ($8000)
Vs People:How does that Slayer Song on VRock go again, oh yeah, RAINING
BLOOD! (I always thought it was reign in blood, perhaps my album is
wrong. Anyway, listen out for it on VRock.)(My changed thanks to Iwan
Best, I guess he must be searching the whole thing for errors. Trust me,
I make LOADS Iwan, but for some reason I always see them)
Vs Vehicles:BOOM! Including Choppers, but not Tanks for some strange
reason.
+ Points:BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM! Oh yeah BOOM! and it takes out
helicopters in one hit
- Points:Slow, and you are often caught in it's blast
