Explore Fall Guys weapons like the M5A2 Carbine and Bullseye. Learn about their unique firing modes and capabilities.

M5A2 Carbine

The M5A2 Folsom Carbine is the standard-issue rifle of the US Army Rangers. The Folsom is nicknamed "the paddle" for its wide wooden stock and ability to "spank" an enemy. The M5A2 uses the same .303 round as the British Rifle, No. 6 Mk 6. Pressing L1 fires the underslung M200 40mm Grenade Launcher. The M200 uses high-explosive grenades which can immediately multiply the firepower available to an individual soldier.

Bullseye

The Bullseye is the Chimeran main battle rifle. It has a rapid cyclic rate and a high damage capability. Pressing L1 fires a Homing Tag. Once a foe is marked the tag will draw the Bullseye's primary fire. Skillful placement of the tag allows entire magazines of ammunition to be placed on a target from the safety of cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) (an object that provides protection from enemy fire). It is also very effective against fast-moving targets.

Rossmore 236

The Rossmore 236 Combat Shotgun is employed by the British Army for base defence and urban warfare. It is noted for its potent stopping power, especially in close-quarters engagements. Since the Chimeran invasion, soldiers have found the shotgun very adept in dispatching Howlers. Pressing L1 discharges both barrels. This method is less efficient than firing the barrels singly, but using it effectively can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.

Auger

The Auger heavy penetrating rifle fires blasts of transient radiation that will tunnel through solid matter. The blasts increase in power with each object they pass through. While the Auger has a relatively small ammunition capacity, the fact that it ignores cover means every blast is potentially lethal. Pressing L1 deploys a Force Barrier. This alters the Auger's energy blast to create a barrier that is impervious to all weapon-fire except that from the Auger. Enemies will suffer injuries if they move through the barrier.

Reapers

The Chimeran Reaper carbine is designed for the hit-and-run attacks of the Slipskull skirmishers. Its light weight and collapsing frame keeps the creature's hands free until the weapons are needed. The Slipskulls' independently focusing eyes give it the distinct advantage of wielding two Reapers at once. Hold the reticule over an enemy to engage Target Acquisition. Once the reticule is red, shots fired by holding R1 or L1 will track an enemy anywhere in the field of view. Each Reaper can track a separate enemy.

L23 Fareye

The L23 Fareye is the weapon of choice for British Royal Marine Commando sniper teams. The rifle chambers a .303 Mk 10 round with a muzzle velocity of nearly 3400ft/s. Press R3 to use the scope. Up/Down adjusts the magnification. Hold L1 to focus concentration. This can give the sensation of slowing down time. All outside distractions are eliminated. Enemy movements become predictable and fatal head-shots (a shot that hits the enemy's head) become inevitable.

L11-2 Dragon

The L11-2 Dragon is an excellent weapon for attacking dug-in Chimeran positions. Its short range is overcome by its ability to damage numerous targets simultaneously with a single sweep. Pressing R1 releases an atomised chemical agent which is catalysed to produce a jet of caustic vapour. Holding L1 develops a cloud of uncatalysed vapour. Releasing L1 will catalyse and launch the cloud. This is useful for area-denial as the cloud remains deadly until its chemical reaction is completely exhausted.

XR-005 Hailstorm

The XR-005 "Hailstorm" is believed to be of US origin, though it is not found on any known order of battle. The weapon fires subsonic bolts which are designed to ricochet off hard surfaces. Shots will continue to travel until they find a soft target or are exhausted. Kills outside the line of sight are possible with banked shots. Pressing L1 launches the remainder of the Hailstorm's clip. This creates an Auto-turret as the clip fires its bolts at nearby targets. The recoil from the bolts will even allow the clip to hang in mid-air.

XR-003 Sapper

The XR-003 "Sapper" mine launcher is believed by British intelligence to be a product of secret US weapons progress. Pressing R1 fires a stream of organic cluster mines. Each mine is encased in a living cell similar to those used by the Widowmaker. The mines stick to most surfaces, including each other. In combat, the Sapper can be used most effectively by setting large cluster mine traps for ambushing Chimera. Aiming at a mine and pressing L1 will detonate the targeted mine. Other mines within the blast radius will also explode. Holding L1 detonates all mines in the vicinity.

Arc Charger

The Arc Charger fires a blast of energy which briefly clings to organic tissue. Additional blasts increase the intensity of the energy. Pressing L1 triggers the energy to Arc to nearby targets. Upon striking additional targets, pressing L1 will arc the energy again. The energy's power increases with each successive arc, as does its ability to strike new targets. With the proper timing many targets may be attacked at once. The Arc Charger is particularly devastating against multiple enemies where it can develop maximum intensity.

L209 LAARK

The L209 LAARK (Light Anti-Aircraft Rocket) was originally designed for use against Russian armoured divisions. Since the Chimeran invasion it has been successful against the Stalker and other heavy vehicles. Once fired, LAARK rockets are capable of user-guided manoeuvrability. Holding L1 will slow down the rocket, allowing it to be re-oriented in flight. Aiming the reticule at any desired target will steer the rocket in the designated direction. The higher the pressure on the L1, the slower the rocket will go. Holding R1 after firing will release auto-guided submu
