How to unlock the Armament King achievement in Mafia II - Definitive Guide

You need to use each of these weapons to get at least one kill on an enemy (civilians may not count, best to get the kills on enemies - though apparently dock workers will count). I've listed the shops you can buy them at, but keep in mind some of these weapons can be picked up off dead enemies.

Machine Guns (Up on D-Pad):
- Thompson M1A1 (Not sold in shops - see note below)*
- Thompson 1928 (H)
- MP40 (H)
- Grease Gun (H)
- .38 SMG (H)

Handguns (Right on D-Pad):
- Magnum (H) (G) (N)
- 1911 Special (G)
- 1911 Semi (N)
- C96 Pistol (H)
- .38 Revolver (N)

Shotgun/Rifles (Down on D-Pad):
- Shotgun (H) (N)
- M1 Garand (H) (N)
- Kar98 Rifle (H)

Throwables (Left on D-Pad):
- Grenade (H) - (See note below)**
- Molotovs (G)

(N) means the gun is purchasable from a normal gun shop (all over the map, icon is a handgun). You can also kill the shop owner and steal the guns if you like.

(H) means the gun is purchasable from Harry's (top left of the map in Kingston, icon is a machine gun).

(G) means the gun is purchasable from Giuseppe's (near the middle of the map in Little Italy, icon is some lockpicks).


* The Thompson M1A1 (the one WITHOUT a drum barrel) is carried and dropped by some enemies during missions, and cops also carry them when you have a 4 star wanted level (thanks Calex dEUS).

"In the "GAI Truck" car jacking mission, one of the soldiers guarding the truck has a Thompson M1A1." (Credit to Protium)

** Make sure the grenade gets the kill, not a secondary vehicle explosion.

I gave a thumbs up. I just wanted to add that police are considered civilians, even if they want you dead.

Just to add to the guide that the M1A1 is carried by cops when you have a 4**** wanted level, thats where I got mine. Might help others who are having trouble finding one.

@ r0bellion thing was I thought I had them all too, however I think when I used the grenade it was the explosion from the near by car that killed , try the grenade kill in the clear with no cars close.

Heh, had to run through all the weapons twice, turns out both times I was unlucky at a secondary explosion killed the man, not a 'clean' grenade. That's definitely the one that'll trick people. Thanks for the list and the heads up.

Thumbs up from me!

It should also be noted that you have to complete the mission or use all weapons before you die. I bought all the weapons from one store, started a mission and got the kills with them and then let them kill me, bought the guns at the next store, etc.. and didn't get the achievement.

So you have to get every weapon kill in one mission or can you get it just playing the game?

Doesn't have to be one mission, it's across all your playtime in the DLC. Above poster was apparently referring to if you die they don't count, but you could also complete the mission and it will save your progress on this achievement (probably just saving in general would count).

I caused a massacre at the docks. Got all the weapons and headed down there to finish up my head shots achievement. All I needed was a headshot with the 1911 from Giuseppe.

Thanks for the guide!

@r0bellion: You need to get kills, you can't just injure an enemy with them. And as ThisBloodIsTrue says, apparently only actual enemies count (so no cops either).

One thing to note is make a list of the weapons then cross each one off after you killed each bad guy/mobster. The level I found the best is the one in the Hollywood Planetarium or the one were your take down the Irish mobsters in their bar. I made sure I stocked up at all 3 places to get the weapons killed one bad guy with each weapon and completed the level. If you die just make sure you kill with each and beat that level just to be safe.

For the tricky M1A1 I got my wanted level up to 4 stars near a clothing store hid in the change room and killed the cops as they came into the store. When the coast was clear I poped out stole their weapon and changed into a stolen outfit (takes your wanted level right away!) Then went into my next mission and cleaned up what I was missing and it poped right away. GL and RadiantViper and all who helped out here

Nope, no special trick ... all the guns are listed, only tricky ones are the M1A1 and grenades, if you use them on enemies you should get it no problem.

Outside Marty's apartment I found three guys hanging around in the 'courtyard', apparently they're enemies. I killed them all, went inside, saved the game and they appeared again. So I used all the different guns on them and got the achievement, after which I didn't see them anymore too. Also handy for when the cops get alerted, you can just go inside and change clothes and lose your wanted level.

I found this solution easiest way to get this achievement.. Thanks. If the guys are not spawned, go save in apartment and come back. Repeat till those guys are spawned.

Oh really, and where did you in fact find these magic mystery men? I'm currently in the open area right outside of Marty's Apartment and there I just a bunch of cars and the mission marker. No people, enemies or otherwise in the immediate vicinity unless you go out in the street.

In addition to the guns available from Harry's Army Surplus, Giuseppe's and the regular gun shops, the police carry the M1A1 Thompson that is unavailable in stores. You will need to get at least one kill with all of them. Give them a heaping helping of lead salad with the following weapons:

.38 SMG
.38 Revolver
1911 Semi
1911 Special
C96 Pistol
Grease Gun
Grenade
K98 Rifle
M1A1 Thompson
M1 Garand
Magnum
Molotov
MP40
Shotgun
Thompson

M1A1Thompson is armed with enemies in the mission “I am not a coward” who are standing and blocking the exit. The mission is located near the observatory

Thompson M1A1 SMG can still be found from one of the guards in the mission where you need to blow up 2 gas stations

There is one inaccuracy in the hint. 14 types of weapons are purchased as described above in stores. And the M1A1Thompson assault rifle can ONLY be taken away from the police during a shootout with them. Make it 4 stars and all the police will have such machine guns.

To begin, purchase weapons at three points:
- in any gun store;
- At Giuseppe;
- and Harry.
All 15 types of weapons will fit into the GG's pockets. After that, go on a mission and kill 1 enemy from each type.
