Modello C96
The Modello C96 is a pistol with a magazine capacity of nine. It is one unit of damage per hit, making it one of the weakest guns in the game, but it makes up for that with the largest magazine capacity of any gun in the game. It also has two points of range. This weapon is available to purchase for 800 dinari from Chapter Five in the story.
Lupara
The Lupara is a shotgun with a damage output of five (the highest available level in the game). However, being a shotgun, its high damage output comes at a cost. With a limited range and a two-bullet capacity, the Lupara ranks among the lowest-performing weapons in these categories. That said, you are granted access to this weapon after Chapter Three. The lupara shotgun costs 1000 dinari.
Vendetti
The Vendetti is one of the most powerful pistols in the game. The pistol costs 1,200 dinari and becomes available for purchase starting in Chapter Three. The weapon has a magazine capacity of four, a damage output of five, and a range of two. These stats make the Vendetti one of the most well-balanced weapons in Mafia: The Old Country.
Repeater
The Repeater is a rifle-type weapon. That means it has a great deal of range, magazine capacity, and decent damage output. Rifles are some of the most ammo-efficient weapons in the game, and the Repeater’s seven magazine capacity, three range, and three damage output make it a solid weapon choice.
Cacciatore
The Cacciatore is a long shotgun available for purchase after its initial use in Chapter Three. This gun’s incredible damage output and decent range make it a formidable piece of equipment. However, the magazine capacity is quite limited.
Carcano
The Carcano rifle’s five magazine capacity, four damage output, and four range make the 800 dinari price tag on it seem like a steal. The weapon is available for purchase from Chapter Three.
Bodeo
The Bodeo pistol becomes available in Chapter Five of the story. It features a six-round magazine, deals moderate damage (rated at 2), and offers a range of 4. The Bodeo is a reliable sidearm in nearly any situation.
Praecisione
The Praecisione holds one round per mag, deals five points of damage per hit, and has a range of five. While it boasts excellent range and damage output, its mediocre magazine capacity makes it a trade-off. For the 1000 dinari price tag, you can get a better option. The weapon is unlocked during chapter six.
Pump-action Shotgun
Simple and effective, the pump-action shotgun costs 800 dinari, has a magazine capacity of five, damage output of three, and a range of two. The high mag capacity, low price range, and decent damage make it one of the most reliable shotguns in the game. You can access this weapon during chapter six of the story.
Barker Model 8
The barker model 8 is the most powerful rifle and one of the most powerful weapons in the game. With five magazine capacity, four damage, and four range, this well-rounded powerhouse of a weapon mows down scores of enemies with ease. The rifle is priced at 1,200 dinari and becomes available in Chapter Six.
Barker Model 11
With a five-round magazine, 5 damage, and a range of 2, the Barker Model 11 stands out as a formidable shotgun. It’s available starting in Chapter Six for 1,200 dinari.
Knives in Mafia: The Old Country
Knives are more than just weapons in Mafia: The Old Country; they serve as tools that serve a variety of needs. As weapons, they can be used during the close combat duel system in the game, where you go up against another knife-wielding adversary in one-on-one melee combat.
Knives also come in handy when you need to dispatch unsuspecting enemies during stealth missions. Knives serve more than just a combat role; they’re also essential tools for bypassing locks on doors and small chests, helping you navigate the world and uncover hidden collectibles. Some knives even grant Enzo unique perks that enhance his combat abilities, either through passive boosts or active effects.
Here’s a breakdown of every knife in the game and how to obtain them.
Note
There are three categories of knives: the stiletto, with its higher durability; the Scannaturi, which offers knife-throwing takedowns; and the rasolu, which offer combat takedowns
Viperi
The Viperi is a Scannaturi-style blade with a durability of two points. It becomes available for purchase in the shop from Chapter One for 200 dinari.
Lupu
The Lupu is another Scannaturi-style blade, but with a durability of three instead of two. Priced at 500 dinari, it’s available from Chapter One. Additionally, the Lupu grants the Vital perk, which heals Enzo after every stealth takedown.
Draguni
The Draguni is a Rasolu-style blade with three points of durability. It’s priced at 200 dinari and available from Chapter One. Rasolu-style knives feature wider blades, giving them a more menacing appearance—perfect if you’re aiming for a rougher, more dangerous aesthetic. The Draguni, along with other Rasolu blades, fits that style perfectly.
Paladinu
The Paladinu knife is a Rasolu-style blade with three durability points. Priced at 500 dinari, it’s available from Chapter One. This knife features the Honed perk, which boosts melee attack damage, making it even deadlier in combat.
Guerreri
The guerreri is a rasolu knife with four durability worth 1200 dinari. The price may seem steep, but this knife’s vital perk heals Enzo after every combat takedown.
Colossu
The Colossu is a Stiletto-style blade boasting four durability points—the highest durability available—and costs just 200 dinari, making it the most affordable option. Stiletto blades are sleek, elegant, and visually striking, and the ones in Mafia: The Old Country are among the most beautiful knives in the game. If you want to project a more refined and sophisticated look, Stiletto blades are the perfect choice.
Imperituri
The imperituri is a stiletto knife with four durability. The knife costs 500 dinar, is available from chapter one, and offers the resourceful perk, which increases the amount of loot you get from locked boxes.
Eternu
The Eternu is a Stiletto knife with five durability points, available from Chapter One for 800 dinari. It features the Vital perk, which restores Enzo’s health after every stealth takedown.
Arraggiatu
The Arraggiatu boasts six durability points, placing it among the highest in the game. This Stiletto knife also features the Honed perk, which boosts melee attack damage. It’s available from Chapter One for 1,000 dinari.
Forzuni
The Forzuni is a stiletto knife with six durability and the light fingered perk. The light-fingered perk allows Enzo to loot automatically during combat, which saves time and makes looting more efficient. The blade is available to purchase from Chapter Five.
Àgghiri
The Àgghiri is a scannaturi knife that you gain access to from chapter 13 of the story. The blade only has three durability and the aerodynamic perk, which increases your knife throw range. While not the most impressive knife, the added range to knife throws can come in clutch during tricky stealth missions where your targets are spread too far apart.
Tigri
You unlock the Tigri knife, a Scannaturi-style blade with four durability, in Chapter Four. It features the Honed perk, which increases melee attack damage, making it one of the more reliable Scannaturi knives. However, for the same perk and better durability, other options may serve you better.
Cavaleriu
The Cavaleriu is a rosalu blade that you can access from chapter 12 of the story. The knife has four durability and the light fingered perk, which allows you to loot automatically during combat, saving time and stocking up on resources simultaneously.
