Pistol
The pistol is the most clearly confirmed weapon category in Grand Theft Auto VI: both protagonists, Jason and Lucia, are shown handling handguns across the two reveal trailers. Trailer 1 features a handgun during a convenience-store robbery sequence, and Trailer 2 includes handgun aiming animations in its action beats. Handguns are the baseline sidearm of every Grand Theft Auto game, typically spanning a basic Pistol, a Combat Pistol, and higher-tier variants like the Pistol .50 or AP Pistol in GTA V. Rockstar has not named a specific base-pistol model or stat line for GTA 6, though the in-fiction firearms brand Hawk & Little is now confirmed to return — its Morgan revolver appears in the June 2026 pre-order screenshots. What is confirmed at the category level is the handgun itself and that it is central to the protagonists' on-screen actions. Details on variants, customisation, and ammunition will come with Rockstar's gameplay reveals; this page tracks the handgun category until specific models are named.
