Dead Rails: 5 best Weapons to use

Below is a list of the five best weapons in this Roblox title.

1) Vampire Knife

The Vampire Knife can be found inside the castle that you reach after hitting the 38,500-meter mark. The castle holds a coffin, which contains the knife. Once obtained, you can use its high speed and damage to kill enemies with ease. What makes the Vampire Knife truly remarkable is its life-stealing ability. Whenever you cause damage to an enemy, you will recover a portion of your health bar.

2) Rifle

The Rifle is one of the most common guns found in this game and can also be purchased for $75 from the Gunsmith shop. Alternatively, you can explore abandoned houses and bandit camps to get your hands on this weapon.

When you're playing as part of a squad, ensure that at least one player is carrying this firearm. The Rifle does great damage at long range and can be useful when clearing out bandit camps and infested towns. If you aim for the head with this gun, you can eliminate the enemy with just one bullet.

3) Sawed-Off Shotgun

The Sawed-Off Shotgun is arguably the most devastating weapon you can use in a short-range fight. With just one or two bullets at the most, you can easily wipe out an enemy. The only downside of this weapon is that it shoots only two bullets before reloading. So if you are getting overrun by a horde of zombies, you might need something better.

The Sawed-Off Shotgun can't be obtained from the Gunsmith shop. It can either be found randomly on the map or purchased using 148 Robux.

4) Maxim Machine Gun

Speaking of dealing with a horde of enemies, the Maxim Machine can do wonders with its 100-bullet magazine. This weapon is mostly recommended when you reach the final fort at the 80,000-meter mark. There, you will be facing off against over a dozen outlaws and the Maxim Machine Gun can help you clear them out easily. If you have some funds to spare, you can purchase this weapon for $125 from the Gunsmith shop.

Do note that to use the gun, you must place it on the ground beforehand. In case of urgency, this weapon can prove to be fatal due to its relatively lengthy setup.

The Mauser C96 is a better version of the regular revolver and has zero recoil. When using this gun, you can easily aim for the head and kill most enemies that come your way. However, even though this weapon is good at handling recoil, it deals relatively less damage than the ones mentioned above.

Like the Sawed-Off Shotgun, the Mauser C96 can also be purchased for 148 Robux. However, if you are lucky enough, you can find it randomly inside one of the buildings.
