All Pistols in Sniper Elite 5
Below is every pistol available in Sniper Elite 5 and how to unlock them.
- M1911 – Unlocked at the beginning of the game.
- Welrod – Unlocked at the beginning of the game.
- MK VI Revolver – Unlocked after completing Mission 2.
- Pistol 08 – Unlocked after completing Mission 3 (Eliminate a target using a stealth takedown).
- Model D – Unlocked after completing Mission 6.
How to complete Mission 6: To finish this mission, you must kill a target using poison. Go to the villa where the target is located. You can find the poison on the ground floor of the building, then head upstairs.
Once you're outside the target's room, you'll notice a glass that you can spike with the poison. After doing this, ring the bell next to the door. Then hide before the target comes out of the room, and as soon as he drinks the poison, he will die within a few seconds.
- Type 14 Nambu – Unlocked after completing Mission 8 (Eliminate a target with either a 14 Nambu or Type 100).
How to complete Mission 8: Go to the house where the kill target is located to find an officer carrying a Type 14 Nambu pistol. Disarm the officer and use the gun to take down the kill target.
Once unlocked, all of the pistols mentioned above can be obtained from one of the three workbenches in any of the levels, denoted by a golden icon visible on your map. You are free to customize and upgrade them anytime before the mission starts or mid-mission (if you can sneak around your enemies successfully).
