FAQ
Why is the fist not listed?
The source describes it as the default unarmed attack with no weapon image or inventory slot, so it is not treated as a collectible arsenal entry.
Are vehicle-mounted weapons separate?
Yes. Vehicle Mines, Vehicle Bombs, Vehicle Machine Guns, and the special mounted weapons are separated from portable weapons.
Are deleted weapons included?
No. ElectroBaton and Instant Vehicle Bomb are marked as deleted in the source and are excluded from the playable collection.
