The post-flood world of Sunkenland is generous with hostile encounters and stingy with bullets. A wrench will keep you alive against the occasional drifter, but island raids and fortified pirate strongholds quickly make it clear that ranged firepower is not optional. This reference covers every craftable firearm, every receiver upgrade, and the resources you will burn through to assemble them.

Blueprints do not live in a tidy in-game catalog. They drop as world loot, almost always inside named points of interest rather than random crates on the seafloor. Once a blueprint is unlocked, the actual weapon is built at one of two stations:
- Black Powder Gun Workshop for early, simple firearms.
- Advanced Firearms Workshop for modern weapons assembled from individual modular parts.
The first workshop is the gateway out of melee combat. The second one requires you to disassemble broken guns scavenged from the world to learn component blueprints, then reassemble those components into vastly stronger weapons.
These stations are not a strict upgrade path. Black Powder guns still see use thanks to cheap ammo, but anything you plan to take into a serious raid will come from the Advanced Firearms side.

Most players start here. Build the workshop itself with:
- 20x Scrap Metal
- 10x Components
- 5x Iron Ingot
Every weapon produced at this bench uses Black Powder Ammo. The recipes leaked early on the official Sunkenland feed and have stayed largely intact since release.

The Percussion Pistol is the obvious standout, dealing roughly 70% more damage than the Flintlock for only slightly more materials. The Scrap Pistol exists, technically.

Modern weapons live behind a slightly more painful onboarding. You build the station with:
- 20x Iron Ingot
- 20x Components
- 5x Electronics
After that, you have to disassemble broken guns found around the world to unlock individual component blueprints (barrels, receivers, stocks, sights, magazines). Every modern weapon is the sum of those parts, and the receiver tier you choose has the biggest impact on damage. Across most weapons, going from Scrap Metal to High-Tech roughly doubles base damage. The cost jumps from annoying to needing an active steel pipeline.

Black Powder is cheap, accessible, and pulls you out of melee range. Past the early game, advanced firearms become the only realistic answer, especially against pirate squads who show up packing scoped rifles of their own.
A reasonable build order looks like this:
- Percussion Pistol to bridge from clubs and harpoons.
- STG44 or M16 as your first modular rifle, since rifle ammo is plentiful.
- Pump Shotgun for close-quarters island clears.
- SVD or LW59 once you start raiding fortified targets.
If you mostly hunt wildlife rather than people, the Hunting Rifle has the lowest component cost in its class and clean stats that make it a quiet endgame staple.
Keep extra scrap metal, copper ingots, and duct tape stocked at all times. The real bottleneck is rarely ammo. It is having the right receiver tier ready the day the next blueprint drops.
