Weapons

Discover the firearms available in L.A. Noire. Learn about the different types of weapons you can use as Detective Cole Phelps to solve cases and take down criminals in 1940s Los Angeles.

Hey there! So, you're diving into L.A. Noire and wondering about the tools of the trade, huh? Let's talk about the weapons you'll be using as Detective Cole Phelps. While L.A. Noire is more about cracking cases with your brain than spraying bullets, you'll still have a few options when things get hairy.

• Sidearms: These are your bread and butter. Expect to carry a standard-issue revolver, which is reliable for most situations.
• Shotguns: For when you need a bit more stopping power, especially in close quarters.
• Rifles: Less common, but useful for longer-range engagements if the situation calls for it.

Remember, ammo isn't exactly unlimited, and Cole Phelps isn't some Rambo character. Using your firearm should be a last resort, usually when a suspect is actively resisting or posing an immediate threat. Focus on your detective work first – the guns are just there to back you up when things go south.
