All weapons in Payday 3

Having the right weapons in Payday 3 can be almost as important as the tactics you use. Some guns and attachments are more suited to your approach, whether it’s stealth or sheer chaos.

The good news is, Payday 3 has a ton of weapons in stock for all playstyles. As you rank up in the game, you’ll unlock new weapons and more attachments to tweak them as you see fit. Presets and weapons of the same type share levels, and leveling a weapon will grant you mods for that type.

There is no dearth of guns in Payday 3, with multiple weapon types available. You’ll unlock more options as you level (with the last base weapon unlock at level 77), and you’ll even find preset weapons that have set attachments.

Here are all the weapons you can use in Payday 3 at launch. We’ll update this list when the developer adds more weapons.
