PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds or PUBG is picking up mad traction quickly, and with that traction comes new players. If you happen to be new and not a veteran and need help with finding guns, their effective range and other information that may be useful, hopefully this guide will be of use.
Notice: Some of the stats and information noted below are subject to change given that Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds is still in Early Access. Information, read now or in the future, should be cross-referenced to avoid confusion, even if you happen to be new.
Whether you are reading this now while the game is still on PC via Steam Early Access or you are from the future, be it on console or PC, this guide aims to help newcomers learn some of the weapons found in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. To help improve your knowledge of the game you can visit its official Gamepedia page that lists all types of weapons, armor, items, vehicles, maps and much more.

Assault Rifles
The same YouTuber has another video guide up, except this time it is about ARs. The Scar-L, M416, M16 A4, AKM, and GROZA, are detailed below. Again, active timestamps are up along with the video guide:
Sub-Machine Guns
If you need to know the effective range, damage and what SMG fairs rather well during combat, the Uzi, UMP, VSS, Vector, and Tommy Gun are reviewed in a single video. Timestamps accompany said video, as seen below:
