Since its release,Boundaryhas been making waves thanks to its fantastic graphics, novel take on the shooter genre, and an awesome arsenal of weapons to choose from. In fact, the sheer number of firearms available can make it feel daunting for some players to figure out how to come up with a build and playstyle that works for them. So, this list covers thebest weapons inBoundary.
8GSW-PCC
Starting off this list is the trusty GSW-PCC. As arguably one of the firearms most valuable for use in mid-range combat, the GSW-PCC boasts a fairly impressive rate of fire, accuracy, and ammo capacity to boot.

What’s more, it’s one of the more versatile weapons in the game, too, in a style not unlikesome of the most forward-thinking shooters in recent memory. So, players who don’t necessarily have a go-to arm just yet or who are looking to expand their assortment of arms may want to look into using the GSW-PCC to see how it works for them.
7TK47
One ofBoundary’sfairly standard assault rifles, the TK47 is also Orlan the cosmonaut’s starting weapon (or one of them, at least).
Something especially cool about the TK47 is how it’s clearly been heavily modified to make it easier to use in outer space. For instance, the pistol grip has been designed in such a way that makes it easier to use when wearing thick, cosmonaut gloves. And, on top of that, the gun’s coat of slick white paint certainly doesn’t hurt the way it looks, either (it’s about as cool a weapon assome of the most memorable shooters of all timehave).
6M53
The M53 is a hefty carbine that packs a hefty punch inBoundary.
Like other weapons of its type, players can expect some considerable recoil if they fire the M53 while floating. All told, though, it boasts decent accuracy, fire rate, and damage output for a weapon of its kind. Players who prefer to hang back and operate as more of a marksman will likely get plenty of mileage out of the M53, as will the more aggressive players who really want to get in their enemy’s face (the level of depth in Boundary’s operator system is truly on par withsome of the best shooters ever made).
5SVD
As one ofBoundary’sfew sniper rifles, the SVD has clearly been optimized in a number of ways to make it as viable for use in outer space as possible (a level of attention to detail that putsBoundaryon par withsome of the best shooters out there).

What’s more, it’s also a fantastic weapon. It goes without saying that players who enjoy picking their foes off from a distance will love the SVD. Its accuracy, for one, is excellent, and it also looks great. Add all of that to the SVD’s incredible damage output and this is a firearm that’s hard to say no to.
4GSW-DMR
The GSW-DMR is one ofBoundary’smost ‘standard’ firearms and for good reason.
This is an incredibly versatile, jack-of-all-trades type of gun (reminiscent of some of the best weapons from someother, fantastic shooters). Players can use it easily as part of a variety of playstyles, and it is highly adaptable, too. While it’s every bit as space-friendly as the other firearms inBoundary’sarsenal, players will struggle to find another weapon that they can apply to as wide a variety of situations. Combine this with the DMR’s balanced, even stats across the board, and it’s easy to see why the gun performs so well.
3GSW-AR
Assault rifle fans are more or less guaranteed to love the GSW-AR. Combining a very respectable rate of fire with its good looks, the GSW-AR is a reliable weapon for when players are trying to push the action or keep the enemy on the back foot, and it has a feel that fans of’classic' shooters are sure to love, too.
The GSW-AR also boasts remarkably low recoil and excellent ammo capacity for a relatively small weapon. Players looking to experiment withBoundary’sassault rifles would absolutely not regret picking up and playing around with the GSW-AR.
2RPK
Boundaryonly has two machine guns for players to choose from, and the RPK is one of them.

This is perhaps one of the spaciest-looking weapons in the entire game, with its white paint and tubular barrel setup. Nevertheless, it’s a highly respectable firearm, and one that is perhaps especially suited to the Fort type of operator. Excellent for more aggressive play styles and for covering plenty of ground in a short period of time, the RPK is, arguably, one of the most fun weapons in the game to use, too.
1GSW-CARKIT
Stable, reliable, and dependable, the GSW-CARKIT can really do it all, like fan-favorite weapons fromsome of the most iconic shooters ever. Both single shots and bursts fired from the weapon are effective, and its stats are consistently strong across the board, too.
It’s also a good choice for just about any style of operator inBoundary. So, no matter what playstyle players are going for, they’ll more than likely be able to put the GSW-CARKIT to great use. Its versatility, matched with its functionality, makes it arguably the strongest weapon in the game.
Boundaryis out now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Mac.
