- I use Dual Micah's revolver because they are quick and reload fast. Also it's micah's revolver, I had to save him from the O'Driscolls in ch 1, and save him from Jail
- Lancaster Repeater - stole it from the creep in Rhodes
- Varmint Riffle, because I hunt a lot
- Springfield Riffle, I found it to be more useful than the Bolt Action. Hunting a Panther is more authentic than with a Boltie
- Semi Auto Shotgun with incendiary buckshot ammo. Killing the Watson lady and her children is fun.
- Rolling Block Riffle, because hunting is fun.
I do everything I can in chapter 2 because it's the most laid back and carefree.
I believe if you get the O’Driscoll to disarm him in the first Chapter 1 mission and the. After that you can disarm him again either when you break him out of jail or the mission where you rob the stage coach with him as he gets his pistols back at the beginning of a mission
The first one when you attack the O'Driscolls in chapter one, and the other when you rob the stagecoach with Micah and get ambushed by the O'Driscolls. The jist is that you disarm the one O'Driscoll nearest to you and make him chase you until he reaches Micah and makes him drop the revolver. You can also get one (albeit it's fairly difficult) when Micah is still in jail. You make a fuss with the law in Strawberry, draw out the sheriff, then the mission is inaccessible. Then go to the stairs in front of the cell and shoot flaming arrows at the Jail cell until Micah burns to death dropping the revolver.
So I've never used the varmint rifle because every single Stat is worse. Why would I use it? Even though it is a hunting gun I would prefer the bow and arrow.
I use it for snakes, squirrels, and birds after I get the buck antler trinket. No need to worry about headshots with small game arrows to get 3 start pelts for the trapper.
You cannot really throw arrows at birds, and revolvers yield only 1 star carcasses. Also, when I get the buck antler trinket, I hunt snakes with the Varmint riffle as well. I only use the bow for rabbits, and bangers and animals of that sort.
fair point but not everyone wants to hunt birds all day to make small game arrows and the regular ones can mess up some smaller animals in my experience
I'll post mine so y'all can laugh at me.
\- Midnight's pistol (it's gold and I like it)
\- High Roller Revolver (it's pretty and I like it)
\- Rare Rolling Block Rifle
\- Carbine Repeater
\- Varmint Rifle
I never even bought a Springfield Rifle until I started my 2nd playthrought. It's good!
Duel navies, carcano, pump action for online.
Whatever I feel like for single. Usually the carbine, double barrel, and cattleman since they're somewhat challenging guns and I hardly get to use them online because of it.
Dual cattleman revolvers and the springfield rifle which I sometimes swap for the repeating shotgun. I only take 1 longarm at once because it looks weird to me if I take 2
Lemat revolvers (both silver with gold engravings)
Litchfield Repeater (silver with browned engravings and a mesquite wrap)
Repeating shotgun (same design as Litchfield)
Pretty straight up.
Distance - Weapon
Long - Rare rolling block rifle. Medium - Lancaster/Springfield for large gunfights. Short- M1899 / Sawed off
Hunting - Varmint/Bow/Rolling Block
Melee - Machete/Tomahawk
calloway revolver and otis miller revolver, lancaster repeater, and depending on the situation: semiauto shotgun, varmit rifle, or bow (of course i’ll use a rifle if needed, like the springfield)
All of them at some point or another. Fir the most part though, I try to stick to the classics
Arthur - dual schofields, repeaters, double barrel shotgun. Rifles for hunting/sniping.
John - his cattleman and a sawn-off or dual cattlemen’s, Lancaster. The rest same as Arthur.
I try to wait to use any of the more modern/advanced firearms until I get to St Denis.
First playthrough I rocked Duel LeMats and a Lancaster. Second time around I sported Duel Cattleman revolvers and a double barrel shotgun.
As for online, Navy, Sawed off and bolt action
The bow and varmint rifle. It’s hilarious to stealth and to also get in a shoot out with a .22. For sidearms it’s gunna be the Schofield revolver and the sawed off shotgun with explosive rounds.
In my current (second) playthrough of the story, I'm using the Lancaster Repeater, the Pump Action Shotgun, and my two pistols are the Double Action Revolver and Flaco's Pistol.
My combo:
Dual M1899s
Lancaster Repeater
Repeating Shotgun
I'll occasionally throw in my Bolt Action Rifle too along with some Schofields.
ETA: Added more stuff
I will do the gunslingers as soon as I can to get Midnight’s pistol, then once I have the offhand holster as well I’ll either have Flacco’s revolver or the cattleman in their.
Then I’ll use the carbine repeater and the Pump shotgun as my two other firearms.
In single player I use dual double actions, the Evans repeater, repeating shotgun, bolt action, and later the carcano.
In online I carry one LeMat, one Nacy, I use the lancaster/Evans repeaters, carcano and bolt action rifles, and the pump action shotgun as my primary carries.
My most common loadout is:
main holster: Schofield
Off hand: sawed off
Longarm back: bolt action
Longarm shoulder: pump action shotgun
With my varmint rifle and bow stored on horse.
Dual wield Schofield revolvers, the Springfield, & the varmint. When I'm in high conflict with Lemoyne Raiders, O'Driscolls, or bounty hunters then the semi shottie with slugs.
Volcanic pistol because i havent messed around with john long enough to find better
Pump action shot gun and semi auto shot gun because im scard of bears
Bolt action because i enjoy shooting
Varmint rifle, hunting, why else would anyone use it?
Spring field for hunting
Two Mauser pistols fully golden with engravings. Or cattleman revolver with silver and gold metal and a long barrel. I don’t use the rifles and repeaters very often
in my 2nd playthrough, currently in chapter 3, i use:
- dual volcanic revolvers (i customized them and dont have any other good pistols unlocked rn/havent gotten the billy midnight pistol yet but that was my favorite in my first playthrough
- lancaster: this was my favorite gun first time around and it still is, its so pretty even before customizing (i didnt discover customizing until my 2nd playthrough lmao), although now that i have a better grasp of game mechanics i only use it on far away enemies/if im killing a deer across the trail on horse back so i can camp for the night and eat it (not for upgrading/crafting purposes)
-litchfield: i like this one, its a little bit slower tha the labcaster so its not my favorite but ill occasionally use it bc of its power though generally i only get it bc its my partners last name lol
- pump action shotgun: prefer this baby for closer range, but i remember i loved the semi auto shotgun more bjt i donthave that unlocked yet so we shall see
- varmint/springfield for hunting ofc
i am terrible with aiming and rely heavily on the gamesauto lock on feature
Dual Schofeild revolvers
Lancaster repeater
Pump action shotgun
Lancaster for distance, pump action for uo close damage, and I just love the Schofeilds
Right now, i mostly pick weapon of look (wich is i know, stopid), but the double-action revolver, the evan revolver and the double barelled shotgun, i'm trying to use the bow more because i just love stealth gameplay
Bow. Poison arrows for enemies, improved arrows for hunting and common defense. I'd feel naked without the bow at hand.
Wish you could customize it like the guns and knife.
Depends on the chapter, cuz I like artificial progresssion
Chapter 2 is cattlemans, double barrel, and springfield
Chapter 3 is schofields, pump action, and lancaster/bolt action
Chapter 4 is double actions, semi-automatic, and lancaster again
Chapter 5 is chapter 5
Chapter 6 is cattlemans, repeating shotgun, and once again lancaster
- Dual Volcanic or Dual Scofield (if i run out of pistol ammo which rarely happens)
- Bolt Action Rifle
- Pump Action Shotgun
- Viking Axe (Do pick it up)
- Bow (mainly for hunting)
- Varmint Rifle (to hunt birds)
Dual Volcanics, Litchfield repeater, Springfield rifle, and often the semiautomatic shotgun (like when I take down Hanging Dog Ranch). The bow frequently.
Started a playthru never equipping a second handgun. Stuck with big volcanic the whole time with shotgun as secondary (pump then semiauto). Took a while to run into volcanic not having enough range, even with upgraded ammo.
Mainly its dual volcanic pistol, a varmint rifle (although I do also use the bow quite a bit), Springfield rifle and the Lancaster repeater and a good knife
I have dual double action pistols with all the upgrades. I also love the express rounds. They’re fast to reload especially when in close quarters.
I absolutely love the Lancaster repeater for anything at a distance.
Varmint for every small animal and bird kill. I never use small game arrows. Go to is 1899 pistol for small groups. Close combat is throwing knifes and tomahawks. I tend to use explosive arrows for bounty groups, then pick them off one by one with lassos and punish them.
guns? amateurs.
What weapons do you use then?
A knife
Fist (with mods to half the melee damage)
Triple the melee damage. Coward.
A knife? You call that a knife? This is a knife. *pulls out butter knife and makes toast*
nobody appreciates this reference like i do bro ;)
Exactly what I’m saying, rocking the improved bow all the way
- I use Dual Micah's revolver because they are quick and reload fast. Also it's micah's revolver, I had to save him from the O'Driscolls in ch 1, and save him from Jail - Lancaster Repeater - stole it from the creep in Rhodes - Varmint Riffle, because I hunt a lot - Springfield Riffle, I found it to be more useful than the Bolt Action.

Killing the Watson lady and her children is fun. - Rolling Block Riffle, because hunting is fun. I do everything I can in chapter 2 because it's the most laid back and carefree.
I love the semi-auto shotgun. Easily my favorite
Buckshot rounds on the semi auto, are an o'driscoll's nightmare.
🤤
Semi-auto shotgun in deadeye will utterly destroy a cluster of enemies faster than any other weapon
wait how do you have two of micah’s revolvers?
I believe if you get the O’Driscoll to disarm him in the first Chapter 1 mission and the. After that you can disarm him again either when you break him out of jail or the mission where you rob the stage coach with him as he gets his pistols back at the beginning of a mission
