So, if you fall into this category of new players and want to find out what weapons are best to use in GTA Online, we’ve got that laid out for you.
Always purchase armor from Ammu-Nation
Now, players who have got GTA V via the Epic Games Store have also been able to redeem bonuses from the Premium Edition. This gives you a leg up with $1 million in starting cash, a few vehicles, and properties.
As well as those, you also get a few weapons. These are the Compact Grenade Launcher, Marksman Rifle, and Compact Rifle. These are pretty helpful as they will do some serious damage right off the bat. Though, they can be upgraded for a few thousand dollars. You should also use this cash to purchase Super Heavy Armour as that will let you fend off a couple of enemy attacks.

If you want to do your work up-close and personal, grab a Hatchet melee weapon for $750. If you want a rifle that packs a little bit of a punch, the Special Carbine costs $14,750 and will work well. You can also get the Bullpup Rifle for $14,500, which is also a decent alternative.
Best GTA Online weapons for over $100,000
However, if that bonus check has cashed and you want to go all out on your self-defense, there are few premium options that you can choose. The Widowmaker will set you back close to $500,000 but you can rein down on enemies with laser shots.
The Up-N-Atomizer is slightly cheaper at $399,000 and can provide some great fun. However, the $449,000 Unholy Hellbringer might be the best of the lot. These three weapons will also allow you to put some considerable distance between yourself and your targets – something you should be doing with every weapon pretty much.
