How many weapons are in WARDOGS?

There are 38 weapons in WARDOGS in Season 02 / Update 0.2.0: 34 firearms and bows spanning assault rifles, pistols, SMGs, shotguns, LMGs, marksman rifles, sniper rifles, and bows, plus 4 launchers.

Which WARDOGS weapons are gated by WARDOG Level?

Pistols are the one category gated on plain WARDOG Level, running 1 for the Judge to 85 for the GGX 18. Most other weapons unlock through class levels instead, and each class has its own weapon family.

What's the heaviest weapon in WARDOGS?

The 9K333 Verba launcher is the heaviest weapon at 17.25kg. Among firearms with a confirmed weight, the AMR 50 sniper rifle is heaviest at 12.5kg, over 5kg heavier than the M249 SAW and PKM at 7.5kg. The M4 (2.92kg) is the lightest rifle.

All Weapons & Stats — WARDOGS Handbook

Q: What are the free weapons in WARDOGS?

The Bushmaster M17s, A-91, and KH-2002 all cost $0 — the same 5.56x45mm assault rifle reskinned per faction, no purchase needed. The MP43 shotgun ($400), AK74 ($800), PP-19 Bizon SMG ($1,000) and Scout Rifle TD ($1,200) are also unlocked by default; you only pay their price.

Q: What's the cheapest sidearm in WARDOGS?

The GGX 17 is the cheapest weapon at $200, and at 0.63kg it's the joint-lightest with the GGX 18, but it needs WARDOG Level 18 and a $15,000 unlock. The Judge, at $250, is the Level 1 pistol.

Q: How do you unlock weapons in WARDOGS?

Most weapons unlock through class levels, not WARDOG level — and each class has its own weapon family. Reaching the level makes a weapon available; the Unlock Price is what actually buys it. Both have to be satisfied — hitting the level alone doesn't hand you the weapon.

Brand New, No Money?

The Bushmaster M17s, A-91, and KH-2002 all cost $0 — the same 5.56x45mm assault rifle reskinned per faction, no purchase needed. The MP43 shotgun ($400), AK74 ($800), PP-19 Bizon SMG ($1,000) and Scout Rifle TD ($1,200) are also unlocked by default; you only pay their price.

Want A Sidearm Cheap?

The GGX 17 is the cheapest weapon on the page at $200, and at 0.63kg it's the joint-lightest with the GGX 18, but it needs WARDOG Level 18 and a $15,000 unlock. The Judge ($250) is the Level 1 pistol.

Levelling A Specific Class?

Most weapons unlock through class levels, not WARDOG level — and each class has its own weapon family. See How Unlocking Works below.

Watching Your Weight?

The M4 (2.92kg) is the lightest rifle, and the AMP-9 SMG is lighter still at 1.4kg. The AMR 50 is the heaviest on this page at 12.5kg.

Just Want To Buy Something Now?

Four weapons you pay for are unlocked by default, with no level or unlock price: the MP43 shotgun ($400), AK74 ($800), PP-19 Bizon SMG ($1,000) and Scout Rifle TD ($1,200). Everything else needs a level first.

Which Pistol Should I Aim For?

Pistols are the one category gated on plain WARDOG Level, running 1 (Judge) to 85 (GGX 18) — so they're a long-term goal regardless of which class you play.

Want the reasoning, plus how unlocking actually works? Keep reading below.

How Unlocking Works

Two different gates control access to a weapon, and every weapon below lists them separately. Reading them correctly is the difference between a reachable goal and a wasted grind.

Gate 1 — Price

Cost To Buy

The Price is what the weapon costs once you can buy it. Only the Bushmaster M17s and its two faction reskins, the A-91 and KH-2002, are confirmed at $0 with nothing else needed — which is why every new player starts with a rifle rather than a pistol.

Gate 2 — Level

Earn First

Reaching the level makes a weapon available; the Unlock Price is what actually buys it. Both have to be satisfied — hitting the level alone doesn't hand you the weapon. A dash in either column means the value isn’t confirmed yet, not that there is no gate.

The Most Important Section On This Page

Every Class Has Its Own Arsenal

Look down the WARDOG Level column and a pattern appears: almost every gated weapon names a class, not a WARDOG level. Which class you level decides which weapons you can ever buy — and since classes level independently, spreading your play thin delays every unlock at once.

Pistols Are The Exception — They're the only category gated on plain WARDOG Level (Judge 1, GGX 17 18, M1911 40, Deagle 65, GGX 18 85) rather than a class. Whatever you main, your pistol progression is the same.

At A Glance

The extremes across the 34 weapons on this page, read straight off the data below, with the 4 launchers on Specializations called out where they beat them. For per-shot damage by hitbox and target armor level, see the Damage Calculator. A dash means the value isn't confirmed yet, never that it's zero. For which of these is actually worth its price, see the value tier list; for the optics, magazines and grips that bolt onto them, see Attachments. For the zeroing keybind, see Controls.
