In Apocalypse Rising 2 , weapons are the primary means of defending yourself from hostile players and the infected. They vary in type, from compact knives to bulky machine guns, but their purposes are all the same: to kill. Upon starting a new save, players spawn with a Snubnose revolver, three speedloaders, a box of .45 ACP ammo with 24 bullets, and a Pocket Knife.
Due to the ever-present threat of infected and other players, weapons and ammunition are crucial to a player's survival. Rounds, magazines, boxes, packs, and crates are all forms of in-game ammunition, with most firearms requiring loaded magazines to operate. However, it is recommended to use your melee weapon when dealing with the infected and save bullets for PvP combat.
Weapons behave differently depending on their stats and can be enhanced with attachments , such as suppressors and optic.

Trivia
Soviet weapons are also referred as militia weapons. This may be due to the wide proliferation of Soviet weapons among various non-state actors throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.
There is a hidden stat for all weapons called Handling which dictates aim speed.
It was visible after the Free release update (when aim speed was first added) for some time, but later hidden.
As a general rule, blunt melee weapons have multihit and stabbing/slashing ones do not.
There are currently no melee weapons that do not stun Infected.
