5. XP-54 (Light)

The XP-54 is a rapid-fire SMG that belongs to the Light class. Much like the MP5 found in games such as Call of Duty, the XP-54 excells in close combat. It’s fast TTK coupled with the Light class’ increased mobility makes it one of the quickest ways of dispatching your enemies in The Finals.

4. SA1216 (Heavy)

The SA1216 is a semi-automatic shotgun found in the Heavy class. It’s four barrels allow you to pop off multiple shots, ensuring you can take down a target at close range almost instantly. Additionally, its 16 shell mag means you can hold your own for quite some time before needing to reload. It’s an incredibly powerful shotgun, and a viable option for players looking to get up close and personal.

3. AKM (Medium)

The AKM is an assault rifle belonging to the Medium class. While it may look like a standard AK-47, the AKM has a deadly damage output and high accuracy, making it effective at both medium and long range. Although it has a little too much recoil for some, once you get used to it this is a reliable and powerful rifle capable of dominating matches.

2. SR-84 (Light)

The SR-84 is an extremely powerful sniper rifle that can be found in the Light class. This rifle has an extremely quick ADS time, making it perfect for taking down long-range targets in the blink of an eye. While it requires a little getting used to, the SR-84 is by far one of the best guns in The Finals and perfect for those looking for a lot of range.

1. V9S (Light)

The V9S is a pistol that can be found in the Light Class. While it may not look like much, this suppressed weapon has an incredible fire rate, range and damage output that makes it the best gun in the game. It’s perfect for both close and medium range, with its semi-auto fire rate essentially turning it into an SMG.
