SHERIFF
The strongest pistol in Valorant. Literally one shot to the head and has a very accurate first shot.

STINGER
This is the most underrated gun right now in Valorant. It has a hard-to-control spray pattern because this gun literally swings its bullets left and right. But it has the fastest fire rate among any gun Valorant. It is perfect for close and moving combat against shotguns. Its first shot is pretty accurate, so bursting it will help fight enemies at long range. It has a total of 80 bullets and 20 bullets per magazine.

BUCKY
The economic friendly shotgun. It only costs 900 which is good when you have extra and you and your teammates are saving. It is strong at close to medium combat since at close, it shoots 15 when fired or using alternate fire for farther fights but it takes time to shoot again, like typical shotguns.
When alternate fired, this gun shoots a canister that doesn't scaters too wide. But if used to enemies too close, the canister will not pop of and shoot its 15 pellets. It has a total of 15 bullets and can load up to 5 bullets.
