* Pistols are secondary weapons, designed to be carried as a complementary sidearm, to be used either in regular fire or in Overwatch mode.
* They have low power and nearly all have a zero chance for critical hits but they don't need to be reloaded.
* Pistol [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_I|Critical Hit chance]], [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_II|Aim Bonus]], and [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_III|Base Damage]] of can be increased via Foundry research. Pistol upgrades don't stack with SCOPE and SCOPE upgrade.
* Generally speaking, upgraded Pistols should be given to Snipers, then to shotgun wielding Assault soldiers (for overwatch at longer ranges).
* All of the Pistols cannot be used by the Heavy Class due to them being replaced by rocket launchers.

* Heavy rifles are an upgrade to Assault Rifles on damage capability.
* Due to their size they can only be carried by Heavy troopers.
* In addition to Overwatch, they also offer the possibility of Suppression for soldiers who possess that ability.
* LMG offers significant less ammo before reloading. 3/6 rounds (before/after ammo conversation upgrade), compare to rifle's 4/8 rounds. This means LMG is less efficient at suppression (1/3) compare to support's rifle supression (2/4).
* All tiers of SHIV carry the LMG / heavy laser / heavy plasma with similar stats and ammo count.

* Sniper rifles have the best damage and critical hit chance (which increases with each tech upgrade) of all non-explosive firearms.
* They also have a range of 100, although it requires for the Sniper to have the Squad Sight ability to shoot targets out of their own sight.
* Units revealed by a Battle Scanner are counted as being in the throwing sniper's own vision for firing purposes(if they don't have Squad Sight, for example.)
* Their drawbacks are their restrictions on movement and firing (which can be addressed with the Snap Snot ability with a -20% aim penalty).
* Unlike other weapons (rifle, LMG, shotgun). Sniper rifles will receive a aim penalty if the target is too close. However, this does not mean that sniper rifle will receive bonus against distant targets. It will just receive no penalty.

* Pistols are secondary weapons, designed to be carried as a complementary sidearm, to be used either in regular fire or in Overwatch mode.
* They have low power and nearly all have a zero chance for critical hits but they don't need to be reloaded.
* Pistol [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_I|Critical Hit chance]], [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_II|Aim Bonus]], and [[Foundry (EU2012)#Improved_Pistol_III|Base Damage]] of can be increased via Foundry research. Pistol upgrades don't stack with SCOPE and SCOPE upgrade.
* Generally speaking, upgraded Pistols should be given to Snipers, then to shotgun wielding Assault soldiers (for overwatch at longer ranges).
* All of the Pistols cannot be used by the Heavy Class due to them being replaced by rocket launchers.

* Assault Rifles are most common squad weapon, offering medium firepower and versatility.
* They can be used by Rookies, Assault and Support clases, but not Snipers or Heavies.
* They are an upgrade from pistols but their damage ratings are below those of specialized firearms (Shotgun, LMG, Sniper Rifle)
* They are both capable of Overwatch and Suppression, as well as inflicting critical hits.

* Heavy rifles are an upgrade to Assault Rifles on damage capability.
* Due to their size they can only be carried by Heavy troopers.
* In addition to Overwatch, they also offer the possibility of Suppression for soldiers who possess that ability.
* LMG offers significant less ammo before reloading. 3/6 rounds (before/after ammo conversation upgrade), compare to rifle's 4/8 rounds. This means LMG is less efficient at suppression (1/3) compare to support's rifle supression (2/4).
* All tiers of SHIV carry the LMG / heavy laser / heavy plasma with similar stats and ammo count.

* Sniper rifles have the best damage and critical hit chance (which increases with each tech upgrade) of all non-explosive firearms.
* They also have a range of 100, although it requires for the Sniper to have the Squad Sight ability to shoot targets out of their own sight.
* Units revealed by a Battle Scanner are counted as being in the throwing sniper's own vision for firing purposes(if they don't have Squad Sight, for example.)
* Their drawbacks are their restrictions on movement and firing (which can be addressed with the Snap Snot ability with a -20% aim penalty).
* Unlike other weapons (rifle, LMG, shotgun). Sniper rifles will receive a aim penalty if the target is too close. However, this does not mean that sniper rifle will receive bonus against distant targets. It will just receive no penalty.
