Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Stechkin Pistol	10mm	8 rounds	standard ammo: 30 brute AP ammo: 27 brute, very good armor penetration	Syndicate Uplink.	Syndicate	The nuke op's weapon of choice, unless they spend telecrystals on something better. Small enough to fit in pockets.

To do:

add bows (make sure everything use proper english first) (done though the english was bad)
give each ranged weapon type it's own description (almost done)
put the damage of each special ammo of each guns, maybe get a cooler looking way to present it.
remove the longarm and sidearm classification, they mean strictly nothing ingame for all ranged weapons.

Ballistic

Ballistic weapons remain a popular weapon in the 26th century, typically however Nanotrasen prefer the usage of Energy weapons over Ballistic weapons, so don't expect to see many ballistic weapons on station.

Automatic

Automatic weapon's ammunition are stored in magazines that can switched quickly with another once they're empty, some can be tactically reloaded by simply using another magazine on the weapon, switching the two without requiring to remove tthe previous magazine. Many of them possess a burst fire mode making them shoot multiple bullets per click. This allow automatic ballistic weaponry to shoot many bullets for prolonged periods of time.

The gun is heavy enough to slow the user, but fires continuously while the mouse is held, until it overheats.

Revolver

Revolvers use a cylinder instead of an external magazine, they can be reloaded by putting the rounds individually or by using a speedloader. You can spin the cylinder by alt-clicking the revolver to randomize what will be the next round fired.

Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
Syndicate Revolver	.357	7 Rounds	60 Brute	Syndicate Uplink.	Syndicate	Security (or generally anyone) will be quick to scream 'NUKIE!' if they see you with one.
Colt Detective Special	.38	6 Rounds	15 Brute + 35 Stamina	Detective's locker.	Security	Can be modified to fire .357, but may break with the modification.
Mateba	.357	7 Rounds	60 Brute	Death Squad.	Nanotrasen	All in all the syndicate revolver, but for death squad.

Shotgun

Shotguns all use the same 12g shells. Those shells are both robust and varied in effects, allowing shotguns to perform very well in many different situations.

Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
File:Improvised shotgun.png	Improvised Shotgun	12 Gauge shells	1 Shell	Crafted	Civilian	A handcrafted shotgun made of scavenged materials. Has a chance to jam when fired, the shell won't be spent. To load shells, simply use the full shell on the shotgun; when you shoot a shell, you need to eject it manually by using the shotgun in your hand before shooting another.
	Double-Barrelled Shotgun	12 Gauge shells	2 Shells	Bar.	Civilian	Easiest shotgun to get, yet the rarest. Only one starts on the station and the Bartender likes to keep it in case of bar fights. Can be sawn off with a circular saw (make sure it's not loaded). A sawn-off shotgun will fit in your backpack. To load shells, simply use the full shell on the shotgun; when you shoot a shell, you need to eject it manually by using the shotgun in your hand before shooting another.
	Riot Shotgun	12 Gauge shells	6+1 Shells	The Armoury.	Security	A uncommon shotgun, typically only used in emergencies by Security or when facing someone with ranged energy protection. Is the only main shotgun on the station at round start sans the bartender's double barrel. To load shells, simply use the full shell on the shotgun; when you shoot a shell, you need to eject it manually by using the shotgun in your hand before shooting another.
	Combat Shotgun	12 Gauge Shells	6+1 Shells	Ordered in Cargo.	Nanotrasen	A black semi automatic shotgun that can be ordered from cargo that is filled with lethal buckshot by default. Otherwise functionally identical to the riot shotgun.
	Compact Combat Shotgun	12 Gauge Shells	4+1 Shells	Found in the Warden's locker.	Nanotrasen	A miniaturized version of the Combat Shotgun for Wardens of Nanotrasen. Ideal for defending the Armory.
	Bulldog	12 Gauge shells	8+1 Shells	Uplink	Syndicate	A powerful semi-automatic, drum fed, shotgun employed by syndicate nuclear operative teams.

Bolt Action

Bolt action weapons do not chamber a new round when firing, needing you to rack the bolt to eject the spent casing and then once again to load a new live round.

Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Mosin Nagant	7.62mm	5 Rounds	60 brute	Cargo	Space russians	Compensate its low firing rate by being extremely powerful. Can be sawed off to fit in backpacks at the cost of ruining accuracy.

Bow

Bows, despite being mostly outdated, are still used by people without easy access to other ranged weapons. Shooting a bow require the user to load an arrow manually then drawing the bow before being able to fire, this results in a noticeably slower firerate compared to regular guns. Arrows will generally drop on the ground after hitting their target letting them be reused, they can also embed in targets, requiringthe arrow to be removed to prevent additional damage.

Item	Ammo	Draw Time	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
Wooden Bow	Arrow	0.5 second	Made by yourself	Civilian: Botany	A simple yet effective wooden bow.
Bone Bow	Arrow	0.5 second	Made by yourself	Ashwalkers	Like the wooden bow but made using bones and sinew from lavaland's fauna. Has more spread than the wooden bow.
Makeshift Bow	Arrow	2 second	Made by yourself	Civilian	A bow made using scavenged materials commonly found on the station. Has a very important spread.
Pipe Bow	Arrow	1 second	Made by yourself	Civilian	A bow made using harder to obtain materials and of higher quality than the makeshift bow. Has less spread than the makeshift bow.

Arrows

Note: This lists only arrows that can be acquired by normal means. All arrows do 20 extra damage to fauna unless otherwise stated.

Wooden Arrow: A basic arrow dealing 20 brute damage. Has a small chance to break and a respectable embed chance.
Ashen Arrow: A fire-reinforced arrow dealing 25 brute damage. Can't shatter on impact and has a low embed chance.
Bone Tipped Arrow: A well-crafted arrow dealing 30 brute damage with moderate armor penetration. Can't shatter on impact and has an okay embed chance.

Chitin Tipped Arrow: A high quality arrow dealing 25 brute damage and an extra 40 damage against fauna with very good armor penetration. Can't shatter on impact and has a respectable embed chance.
Bamboo Arrow: A brittle arrow dealing 10 brute damage with a high chance to embed. Very likely to shatter on impact.
Bronze Arrow: A forged arrow dealing 25 brute damage with minor armor penetration. Has a small chance to break and an okay embed chance.

Arrow Modifications

These arrows can be crafted from any existing arrow, inheriting half of their damage, embed chance, and armor penetration.

Fire Arrow: Upon impact, will deal an additional 8 burn damage and set the target ablaze, assuming the target is a carbon. Requires Makeshift Crafting from the Syndicate in order to make, or tribal knowledge.
Bola Arrow: Upon impact, will deal the arrow's modified damage as well as applying a bola effect, cuffing the target's legs. Requires Makeshift Crafting from the Syndicate in order to make, or tribal knowledge.

Energy

Energy weapons are among the most common kind of weapon you'll find on a Nanotrasen space station. Reliable but has issues with ammo. Energy projectiles are able to pass through grilles and windows.

Gun

Energy guns can all be recharged with the rechargers found commonly on station, EMP will completely drain their battery.

Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Disabler	Energy	20 Disable	25 Stamina Damage	Disabler crates and the Armory.	Security	Four shots will fully incapacitate a target.
	Laser Gun	Energy	12 Lasers	20 Burn	Armory and Laser Guns Crate.	Security	Consume less energy per shot fired than the lethal mode of the energy gun, letting it have two more shots before needing to be recharged
	Hellfire Laser Gun	Energy	7 Lasers	25 Burn	Hellgun Single-pack	Security	Does more damage than a regular laser gun and can easily inflict debilitating burn wounds, it comes at the cost of a higher energy consumption reducing the ammo capacity.
	Energy Gun	Energy	10 Lasers, 20 Disable	20 Burn 25 Stamina	Armory and Energy Guns Crate.	Security	A versatile energy weapon. Best thing is to disable a target and then either handcuff (for arresting) or spam the other remaining shots at them on kill mode (for murder).
	Energy Crossbow	Energy (Self-Charging)	Infinite Bolts (needs to cooldown after shooting)	15 Toxin + 60 Stamina + Short Knockdown	Syndicate Uplink.	Syndicate	The syndicate's energy crossbow, small, silent and deadly.
File:Advegun.png	Advanced Energy Gun	Energy	10 (recharges over time)	20 Burn 25 Stamina	R&D Lab once researched first.	Nanotrasen	Using advanced ~~wizardry~~ SCIENCE, a mini nuclear generator has been fitted into this gun to provide unlimited shots! Researched from R&D. Cannot be used in recharging units. Unreliable models may emit radiation, take caution.
	Antique Laser Gun	Energy	12 (recharges over time)	20 Burn	Captain's Quarters.	Nanotrasen	The prized weapon of the Captain, and the target of many enemy horses. Similar to the laser gun except it's recharged all by itself. They just don't make guns like they used to.
	X-01 Multiphase Energy Gun	Energy	4 Ion, 10 Laser, 20 Disable	1 tile EMP 20 Burn 25 Stamina	Head of Security's Office.	Nanotrasen	The first attempt by Nanotrasen to remake the Captain's Antique Laser. Has more firing modes on offer but lacks the ability to recharge.
	Ion Rifle	Energy	10 Ion Pulses	20 Brute to silicon mobs Up to 90 damage to mechs 3x3 EMP	Armory and on the Nuclear Operative shuttle.	Security	Large and unwieldy, great for dealing with mechs. Cyborgs are weak to it: flashing cyborgs totally immobilizes them and it leaves you free to robust them to your heart's content.
	Retro Laser	Energy	12 Lasers	20 Burn	White Ship.	Unknown	Found on the white ship and Charlie Station, this old beast is like the laser gun; anyone with a spaaaaaace suit and a little know-how can reach it.
	Temperature Gun	Energy	40 Freeze/heat Beams	Heats/Cools target dependent upon the setting.	Armory and R&D Lab once researched first.	Nanotrasen	Another researched gun, if you can make this, chances are you can construct something better (read: laser cannon). Generally useless, except perhaps for killing slimes if you really don't want to get close.
	X-Ray Gun	Energy	20 Lasers	15 Burn + 300 Irradiate	R&D Lab once researched first.	Nanotrasen	This beams from this gun will pass through everything but a wall. While it does do less burn damage, the radiation it inflicts causes toxin damage and can make someone mutate. Great for shooting up crowded hallways. Kills blobs dead. Current range of the gun is 15 tiles and drops further with every obstacle passed by the beam.
	Biological Demolecularisor	Energy	10 lasers	20 Cellular Damage + 100 Irradiate	R&D Lab once researched first.	Security	Also known as the decloner, a deceptively strong weapon since cellular damage is very hard to heal. Unlike other energy weapons, its projectiles are unable to go through glass and grilles.
	Pulse Rifle	Energy	200 Pulse	50 Burn	Deathsquad	Nanotrasen	The most powerful energy weapon in existence. Bruteforces energy weapon's ammo problems by having a very large power source. Its pulse setting is capable of doing massive damage to a target as well as destroying cover and walls.
	Pulse Carbine	Energy	10 Pulse, 20 Laser, 10 Stun	50 Burn 20 Burn Stun	Emergency Response Team	Nanotrasen	A scaled down version of the Pulse Rifle, holds significantly less power than the Pulse Rifle but is capable of being placed inside bags. Issued to Elite Emergency Response Team Security personal.
	Pulse Pistol	Energy	5 Pulse, 10 Laser, 10 Stun	50 Burn	Emergency Response Team	Nanotrasen	A sidearm based on the Pulse Rifle. Is capable of fitting inside pockets and other small places but has a very limited ammo capacity. Issued to all Elite Emergency Response Team personal.

Bow

Energy bows cannot use regular arrows, instead they generate one and only require drawing before being fired. Energy arrows cannot be reused and will dissipate after use, upon embedding they will deal 1 damage per tick for 10 ticks before dissipating(the damage type depend on the arrow).

Item	Ammo	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
Hardlight Bow	Energy (Self-Charging)	25 Burn (Burn damage on embed), 40 Stamina (Stamina damage on embed)	R&D Lab once researched first.	Security	More damaging than a standard energy gun but with a lower rate of fire, infinite ammo like the advanced energy gun but without any risks of irradiation for the user.
Syndicate Hardlight Bow	Energy (Self-Charging)	25 Burn (Burn damage on embed), 15 Burn + 300 irradiate (Toxin damage on embed)	Syndicate Uplink.	Syndicate	Completely silent when drawing and firing, can be toggled to let you see further for long distance takedowns.
