When it comes to action/shooting games, the guns you choose can make or break your success.
The best guns depend on which game, which gamer, and which tactical scenario you find yourself
in. Consideration is given to the five main classes of gamer guns, their popularity, and the games
they're in to bring you a list of the Top Ten Gamer Guns (and their civilian equivalents).
Assault Rifles
M16 (AR-15) Series: Modern Warfare 2, Metal Gear Solid Series, Left 4 Dead, GTA Series:
Some versions of the M16, and its civilian counter-part, the AR-15, have not only been everywhere
in gaming, but have been at the top of their class and perhaps the best (gamer) guns in the world.
These are the primary guns to bring into any gamer battlefield. The "Black Rifle" is the one you
pick for stealth (MGS), full-on combat (MW2) pure chaos (GTA) or fighting off massive zombie
hordes (Left 4 Dead). And no matter what you need it to do, the M16 (AR-15) can get it done.
AK-47: Modern Warfare 2, Black, GTA Series, Counter Strike:
Neck-and-neck in the battle for greatest (gamer) gun in the world, the AK-47 is battle-hardened,
time tested and found almost everywhere guns meet games. The AK-47 may not be as accurate
as the AR-15, but it is often cited as the definitive assault rifle for any engagement. As the cream-
of-the-crop in MW2, the AK-47 can't be denied on a cyber playing field.
Sub-Machine Guns (SMG)
MP-5 (GSG-5) Series: Rainbow Six, GoldenEye, GTA Series, The Punisher, Resident Evil 5
As a civilian, you'll find it as the GSG-5, but in the virtual world, the MP5 is the dominant gun of its
class. This highly adaptable SMG takes many forms, making it perfect for most any tactical
encounter. This is the gun you go for in the automatics class for GoldenEye. Cut to Rainbow Six
and you'll see that the MP-5 SMG is better than an assault rifle for close range counter-terrorism.
My favorite use of this gun, though, has got to be when a friend picks up the sticks with Sheva in
RE:5 and lays down suppressive fire on some lickers while I break out the big guns.
P90 (PS90): Counter-Strike, GoldenEye, Black, Modern Warfare 2, Rainbow Six
Bond's favorite power weapon in GoldenEye (known there as the RCP-90). In games of modern
combat this gun is bad-ass. Designed for the 5.7x28mm round, a tailor-made tactical cartridge, the
P90 and its civilian cousin the PS90 are well known for cutting down targets in a hurry. Large
magazine capacity, fast rate of fire and overall awesomeness make the P90 a fan favorite when
2. ever combat gets intense and you're running out of armor.
Handguns/Side-Arms
1911: Metal Gear Solid 3 & 4, Medal of Honor Series, Call of Duty Series, Battlefield Series
New or old, this pistol has been the side arm of choice for WWII soldiers to Modern Warriors to
Covert Operatives. Both Naked Snake (Big Boss) and his son Solid Snake use one as their
primary gun in their stealth operations. Infiltrating a nuclear facility using mainly a 1911 pistol?
Yeah, this gun's got what it takes. A century old handgun design that still kicks-ass is a clear
choice for the number one gamer gun side arm. You know too well how effective the 1911 pistol
can be when it comes to finding the next check point.
Desert Eagle: Resident Evil Series, Tomb Raider, Counter-Strike, Fall Out, Max Payne
It's not just large and in charge, video game vixen Lara Croft showed us that the Desert Eagle, or
Deagle as you may prefer, is the handgun of choice for taking down dinosaurs while still looking
sexy. Our friends in Raccoon City showed how this pistol is the perfect zombie slayer, by blowing
through a line of undead slack-jaws with a single shot. But when it comes to tactical, a Desert
Eagle handgun is all the power you need to clear a map single handed. The power of the Deagle
is uncompromised.
Shotguns
Remington 870: Battlefield Series, Black, Resident Evil Series, Max Payne 2
FPS or third person action, no criminal, soldier, terrorist or zombie can withstand the power of the
Remington 870 shotgun. The simplistic beauty of this tactical shotgun has been relied upon to
punch through doors, drop advancing insurgents and decimating zombie hordes. The premier
shotgun for gamers.
Saiga Shotgun: Metal Gear Solid 4, Battlefield Series, SOCOM
It looks like an AK, but it demolishes targets like a shotgun. The Saiga is a unique tactical shotgun
that seems underrated in the world of gamer guns. Maybe it doesn't have the impact of a
Remington, but the Saiga gives you shotgun power with a fast rate of fire that any tactical gamer
should be able to appreciate. That is, unless you like getting pawned by newbs with lucky head
shots.
Sniper Rifles
SVD Dragunov: Metal Gear Solid 3 & 4, Battlefield Series, Resident Evil 5, Modern Warfare
What can I say, the Russians make good guns. That being said, the SVD, one of the most easily
recognizable sniper rifles in the world, makes a good rifle and good gamer gun. If you don't want
the stamina kill, the SVD is the best way for snake to take out The End. Or you could use one to
put a precise hit into the weak spot of that weird-spider beast In resident evil. Either way, The
Dragunov is a gamer gun for the ages.
3. Remington 700: Modern Warfare, Battlefield Series, GTA Series
Simple. Reliable. The bolt-action Remington 700 can hit its mark from half-way across the map
and keep you leveling up one shot at a time. Reserved for those with skill and patience, only elite
gamers have truly mastered this gamer gun. A great sniper rifle for great gaming snipers.
