Introduction

The weapon system is used everyday by members of LS:RP. Although players with the dealer/smuggler job have access to more commands, everyone can make use of the weapon script. In the beginning, it can be confusing and tricky to use, but with frequent use it'll become second nature. In this guide, you'll be walked through both the basics as well as more advanced commands. After reading, you should have a better understanding on where/how to get the dealer job, packaged weapon commands, and other general weapon commands.

Weapons Dealer Job

Dealer Job

When doing /dealerjob at a blackmarket, you will acquire the weapon dealer job. You must be at a black market otherwise the command won't register. Instead of receiving the congratulations text, you'll be shown a red message that reads "You need to be at a black market." If you know for sure you're at a black market and the command isn't working, try moving around and then redoing the command.

 

 

If you've read this and are scratching your head at the term black market, then continue into the next section!

 

Black Markets

As stated before, black markets are where you can acquire the weapon dealer job. The drug dealer job is also available here. They're unidentified points that're scattered across the map. You have to find them in character, so this guide will not provide the locations of them. Black markets are vital to weapon dealer roleplay. This is because when processing (/sw, /sellweapon — will be explained later on) larger packaged weapons, it needs to be done while present at a black market.

 

A few examples of weapons that need to be processed at BM

• Shotgun
• MP5
• AK-47
• M4
• Rifle
• Sniper
• Grenade/Molotov (One time usage only. After you log off the weapon disappears)
• Bodyarmor

 

Commands

After obtaining it and doing /jobhelp in-game, a list of potential commands will show up on your screen.

Although you're now given a list of options, you may still be lost on how and when to use these commands. This section will try to give you a better idea on each command by providing a basic description of what it does.

 

• /sellweapon(sw) [Player ID/ Part Of Name] [Weapon Slot ID]

Weapons Smuggler Job

The weapon smuggler job shouldn't be confused for the weapon dealer job. They're two separate things. Only official faction leaders or trusted members of an official faction can have it, since they're able to handle this type of responsibility. Weapon smugglers usually have access to a gun warehouse, a feature that's restricted to other players. Smugglers also have a set of restricted commands that will not be disclosed in this guide. The basic use of this job is to utilize a gun warehouse by ordering guns.

 

---

Commands

The commands below are accessible to anyone. Weapon dealer or smuggler job is not required to use these commands.

• /weapons

Brings up a list of current weapons on your character and their IDs.

• /weapon

Shows a list of weapon commands such as adjust, bone, hide, and reset. - Click here for details.

• /leavegun(/lg)

When crouched, a player is able to leave their gun on the ground and will be able to pick it up for a short time. The weapon will not be left there permanently.

• /dropgun

Use of this command will cause a gun to be dropped forever. Unlike the /leavegun command, a player cannot get this weapon back once the command is entered. Please be careful not to mistake this as /leavegun.

• /grabgun(/gg)

Goes hand in hand with /leavegun. This is the command that needs to be entered in order to pick up a weapon that's been left on the ground.

Restricted Commands

Those commands are made for the Weapon Supplier job. You get this job once you're in a official faction that posesses a gunstore. Unfortunately only two commands are available to the public due to security reasons.

• /buyweapon

To buy a weapon from a gunstore.

• /collectweapons

To collect all the weapon packages from a warehouse.

Weapons Available

There is a several array of weaponry that can be purchased in-game, all have different characteristics that alter their pros and cons. Some weapons available within the single player have been disabled for obvious reasons. The weapons listed below are the kind available within the game server, brief descriptions are also added.

 

Knife

The knife is one of the most primary melee weapons feature in Los Santos Roleplay. Its mechanics are fairly simple and can be used in quick attacks to cause severe damage to unsuspecting enemies. NOTE: Using the 'backstab' attack on players can cause de-sync when their throat is cut (they appear dead to other players), avoid doing this at all costs.

 

 

 

 

Colt .45

The Colt .45 is a small pistol that has a medium-paced rate of fire. It deals significantly less damage than it's counterpart, the Desert Eagle. However, it's higher rate of fire and consistent accuracy does make it a valuable choice in combat. Users are granted the use of a magazine consisting of 17 rounds alongside running capabilities.

 

 

 

 

Silenced Pistol

The Silenced Pistol is as it says, a silenced pistol. It is a close replica of the Colt .45 but with much higher damage. Magazine sizes and fire rates are identical, meaning the damage and silencer only really separate the silenced pistol and the Colt .45

 

 

 

 

Desert Eagle

The Desert Eagle is a high-powered pistol that is commonly used through day-to-day shootouts. It high-power counteracts against its average accuracy, however the recoil can be tamed. It onlyholds a seven-round magazine and lacks the ability to jog while wielding.

 

 

 

 

Shotgun

The Shotgun is a pump-action weapon that deals a colossal amount of damage upon landing an accurate shot. This weapon's spread is surprisingly tight, making it a very accurate weapon. These pros are weighed out by it's slow pump(reload) time between every shot.

 

 

 

 

Country Rifle

The Country Rifle is a sniper that lacks a high-powered scope. It has an exceedingly high damage, range and accuracy, making it a feared weapon of choice. If used with the element of stealth, the country rifle is guaranteed to cause some serious damage. The rate of fire for this gun is extremely slow, making it one of the slowest firing weapons in the game.

 

 

 

 

MP5

The MP5 is a small sub-machine gun that is gifted with an extremely high rate of fire. It's medium level damage is handy when you are in medium to close-quarter combat. The MP5's recoil and accuracy do not make it a suitable weapon to use at range. It has a large magazine consisting of fifty rounds.

 

 

 

UZI

The UZI is a lightweight comrade of the MP5, it trades the higher damage for a larger magazine and rate of fire. A single magazine held in a UZI holds 50 rounds and empties a full clip within seconds making close-combat difficult for players staring down the barrel of an UZI.

 

 

 

 

TEC-9

TEC-9s are fairly rare SMGs. It has a medium fire rate and accuracy but a low damage statistic, making it an all-round weapon. It is generally used amongst members of illegal gang factions, it is all-round, a plausible weapon. It also holds a large magazine, consisting of 50 rounds per magazine.

 

 

 

 

 

AK-47

The AK-47 is a very powerful automatic assault rifle, mainly used by gang/mafia members for hits and drivebys. The weapon has a steady rate of fire, very heavy recoil and a large spread from a distance. Only useful in close/medium quarters.

 

 

 

 

M4

The M4 is a very powerful automatic assault rifle, mainly used by law enforcement members for all sorts of situations ranging from tactical breaches to shootouts in the open. The weapon has a steady rate of fire, not a lot of recoil and a small spread from a distance. Only useful in medium/large distances.

 

 

 

 

Sniper Rifle

The Sniper Rifle is a very deadly rifle, equipped with a scope and a x25 zoom, you are able to hit your targets from a very large distance. The sniper is a 'one shot one kill' - death upon contact with the rifle. It is very hard to obtain a sniper these days.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How many weapon packages can I carry?

You can only carry 12 weapon packages on you and store 20 in a vehicle.

• If I accidently typed /dropgun instead of /leavegun and lost my weapon, how can I recover it?

There's no way you can. Not even with a refund request as this was your mistake, not the server's one.

• Can I hide big weapons with /weapon adjust inside my character so police can't see it?

Absolutely no. This breaks the "Abusing SA:MP Physics" rule and it can get you banned.

• How much ammo can a weapon hold?

If you have a weapon packaged you can type /mypackage and see that there between brackets you'll have something like "200/1000". That shows how much ammo your weapon currently has (the 200) and the maximum it can hold (the 1000).

• If I have a suggestion regarding the weapon system, where can I post it?
