GTA 5 provides you with an urban sandbox to wreak havoc in. To get started with your mayhem, you’ll need weapons and ammunition. Ammo is usually plentiful, but you may occasionally find yourself short on supplies. Fortunately, there are a few ways for you to replenish your stocks.
This guide will explain all the methods to purchase ammo in GTA 5.
How to buy ammo in GTA 5 (single-player)
As has historically been the case, ammunition can be purchased from Ammu-Nation, which is the franchise’s chain of weapons stores. You’ll find these scattered throughout Los Santos, and they’re indicated by the gun icon on the map. The first one you’ll come across when you begin your single-player campaign is in Downtown Los Santos, at the spot indicated below.
This is a useful Ammu-Nation to keep a tab on, as it also has a shooting range. Once you’ve unlocked a weapon, you’ll be able to purchase more ammo or buy modifications. Simply walk into Ammu-Nation and speak with the store clerk.
How to buy ammo in GTA 5 Online
If you’re playing , you won’t be able to purchase ammo until you’ve completed the introduction. Once that’s done, you can head to any Ammu-Nation to grab some ammo. Alternatively, open the interaction menu (by holding the touchpad on PlayStation, the View button on Xbox, or “M” on PC). Scroll to the inventory menu, and you’ll be able to purchase ammo there.
If you have purchased VIP Work or CEO Work from the interaction menu, you can also call in for an ammo drop by contacting Merryweather Security. To do this, enter the interaction menu, scroll to the SecuroServ option, and select “request ammo drop”. Not long after, a crate containing your desired goodies will come parachuting down.
GTA 5 has enjoyed an absurdly long lifespan, though Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 is on the way. No official details have been revealed, though a massive 2022 leak 𝐆provided a sneak peek into what the studio is working on.
