The Best Guns Of Payday 3

The Best Guns In Payday 3

The multiplayer co-op heisting simulator is renowned for its high-octane action and wide assortment of firearms players can deploy while fending off encroaching assault teams. Whether you prefer tanking with a high DPS (damage per second) shotgun or sliding into cover with an SMG, there's a gun to fit every playstyle. 

Stryk 7

Modeled after the real-world Glock 17 Gen 5, the Stryk 7 is an early improvement over the starting pistol in nearly every way. It boasts a higher capacity, less recoil, and a faster rate of fire than the Signature 40 (Sig P226). And although the Stryk 7 has a slightly lower base damage, this is offset by the ability to install a 33-round magazine for a much greater volume of fire.

KU-59

This AKM variant offers solid damage and a decent ammo pool, making it perfect for Loud heists where crowd control is an integral part of successfully escaping with the loot. Additionally, you can unlock a whole host of attachments to make it look as tactical or as retro as you want.

FIK PC9

For those who prefer fast and lightweight SMGs, none are better than the FIK PC9 (modeled after the 2nd gen Sig MPX). The PC9 handles incredibly well and is soft shooting with a high rate of fire. It also has one of the best reload speeds in the game at launch - making it an ideal choice for the run and gun gameplay.

Reinfield 880

The Reinfield 880 is the in-game designation for the Remington 870, one of the most popular pump-action 12GA shotguns ever produced. Pairing its damage with select perks from the Gunslinger and Ammo Specialist skill trees, the Reinfield 880 can be used to clear swathes of enemies with devastating effect.

SP Model 11

Unlocked later in the Payday 3 career progression system, the SP Model 11 is one of the more powerful sidearms in the game. It is modeled after the STI Perfect 10 and performs well in both Stealth and Loud heists, with a high damage output and a better rate of fire than either revolver in the base game.
