Weapons - Bridger Western

Weapons decide most early and midgame fights. The important part is not just raw damage, but where each gun fits into your money route and tier.

Global weapon rules

Three rules matter across almost every weapon route:

That means your choice is not just about raw strength. It also depends on your tier, your build, and how expensive your reload habits are.

Weapon shopping is split between two live vendors:

Vendor	Where	What it covers
Moe's Gun Store	B. Ridge County / Main Town area	Core gun progression, ammo packs, Bow, Sabre
Jim at Outlaw Camp	Outlaw Camp	Colt Ocelot, Double Barrel, extra outlaw-side inventory

The two live weapon sellers are worth recognizing on sight, because they split the whole gun economy.

Prices here are reference values and may change with live updates.

Gun Store covers most of the mainstream firearm progression.
Outlaw Camp is where more specialized outlaw-side gear starts showing up.
Fishing crosses into weapon progression because rusted Mare's Leg can be repaired into a usable secondary. See Fishing for the drop route.

Treat your early gun as a stability tool, not a final build.
Do not chase raw damage without considering reload behavior and ammo discipline.
If you are heading toward Stands, remember that your base gun damage is likely to drop.
If you plan to lean on revolvers, Cards matters because Veteran changes reload economy.
