Weapons mods for GTA San Andreas mostly do one of three things: they swap the stock gun models for sharper or themed ones, they rework the sounds so gunfights feel punchier, or they tweak how a weapon behaves, like firing speed or reload. Some packs touch the whole arsenal at once, others focus on a single gun or slot.
Before picking one, check which edition it targets, Original or Definitive, since they are not interchangeable. Also look at whether it replaces a single weapon slot or the full set, because stacking several full-arsenal packs will just cause conflicts. If the description does not list every gun included, open the files first so you know what you are actually getting.
1. New Weapons Pack: Expanded Arsenal
This pack touches nearly every weapon slot in the game, from pistols and shotguns to SMGs, rifles, melee weapons and heavy ordnance like the minigun and RPG. It is built for players who want a full visual refresh of the arsenal rather than a single gun swap.
It is made for the Original Edition, so check that before installing if you are running something else.

2. Medal of Honor 2010 Weapons: Converted Firearm Set
This set pulls weapon models from Medal of Honor (2010) and drops them into San Andreas for a different look than the stock arsenal. It is aimed at players who want their guns to look like they came from another shooter rather than a reskin of the originals.
It is built for the Original Edition and comes in at 15.76 MB. The individual guns included are not listed, so it is worth opening the files first to see what you are replacing.

3. Guntown Weapon Shipment Extended: Complete Armory Overhaul
This is a full rework rather than a simple model swap. Alongside new weapon designs it adds fresh crosshairs, reworked gunfire sounds, a scope with multiple zoom levels, camera shake while firing, and a weapon visible on the player model.
It also brings gameplay changes like a grenade-launcher mode on the SMG, a working chainsaw, an unarmed stealth kill, rebalanced minigun damage, and a fix for the parachute landing animation. It suits players who want the whole combat feel changed, not just the look of one gun, and it is built for the Original Edition.

4. Silenced Zastava M70AB2: Suppressed Assault Rifle
This one swaps the stock silenced pistol for a suppressed Zastava M70AB2, a Yugoslav AK-pattern rifle, in the silenced weapon slot. It comes with its own HUD icon and a small file size.
It fits players who want a quieter long gun instead of a pistol for stealthy runs. It is made for the original PC edition.

5. CSGO M4A1-S Skins Pack: High-Quality Weapon Textures Collection
This pack gives the M4A1-S six separate skins pulled from CSGO designs, including Freeze, Gold Coil, Hyper Beast and Masterpiece, with normal mapping and reflective surfaces for extra detail. It is a visual pack rather than a gameplay one, so it suits players who just want the gun to look better without changing how it fires.
It targets the Original Edition.

6. No Reload for Sawed-off Shotgun: Faster Weapon Firing Enhancement
This is a small gameplay tweak that cuts out the reload animation after every shot on the sawed-off shotgun, leaving only a brief pause between shots. It only affects that one weapon, so the rest of the arsenal behaves as normal.
It is lightweight and simple to install, which makes it a good fit for players who just want faster close-range fights without changing anything else. It works with the Original Edition.

7. NextGen Weapon Sounds: Immersive Audio Overhaul
This pack reworks weapon audio across the board, with multiple distinct firing sounds per gun, separate fire and reload sounds, and sources taken from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. It leans on EarShot OpenAL for 3D positioning, so the aim is a more cinematic feel during gunfights.
It is a large download at 16.68 MB and needs the Essentials Pack and EarShot OpenAL installed alongside it to work properly. It is built for the Definitive Edition.

8. LCS Weapons Pack: Liberty City Stories Firearms Collection
This pack converts the full weapon set from the PS2 version of Liberty City Stories into San Andreas, keeping the original look of each gun. It covers the stubby shotgun, Uzi MAC-10, M60 and Minigun among others.
It suits players who want that specific LCS style rather than a generic replacement pack, and it is made for the Original Edition.

9. M134 Minigun: High-Quality Weapon Replacement
This swaps the stock minigun for a more detailed model that fits the character’s hands properly and keeps a sensible in-game size, with a custom HUD icon to match. It is a straightforward visual upgrade for one weapon rather than a full pack.
The file is small at 3.14 MB, and it is built for the Original Edition.

10. Aliens vs Predator Weapons Pack: Sci-Fi Arsenal Addon
This is a small themed pack that brings weapons from Aliens vs Predator 3 into San Andreas, giving the arsenal a sci-fi look instead of a realistic one. It suits players running a themed playthrough or just wanting something visually different from the usual guns.
It is made for the Original Edition.

Tips for weapons mods in GTA San Andreas
- Back up your original game files before installing any weapon replacement, so you can undo it if something looks or behaves wrong.
- Match the mod to your game edition, Original or Definitive, since files built for one will not work correctly on the other.
- Avoid installing more than one full-arsenal pack at a time, as they tend to overwrite the same files and only the last one installed will stick.
- If a pack lists required extras, like an audio engine or essentials pack, install those first or the mod will not function.
- When a description does not list every weapon included, check the files yourself before installing so you know exactly what is being replaced.
