Weapons List

A Weapon and Ammo

There are several types of weapons in DayZ. All weapons are modeled after their real world counter parts and they behave as such.

Rifles, Submachine guns, Shotguns and most Sniper Rifles will fill the Main weapon slot. These will take 10 slots in the Backpack

Sidearms take 5 slots in the Backpack.

Missile launchers will fill the Backpack-slot.

Since 1.7.1 There is a new feature: Convert Magazines.
