Bring the frontier to ARK with seven distinctive revolvers and rifles, custom animations, inspect sequences, firearm trinkets, weapon skins, and configurable damage.
A focused collection of revolvers and rifles with distinctive handling, polished audiovisual feedback, inspect animations, customization, and server-side balance controls.
Choose between four revolvers and three rifles, each built for a different balance of power, speed, range, recoil, and capacity.
The documented arsenal includes the Colt Peacemaker, LeMat, Navy and Schofield revolvers, plus the Nitro Express, Sharps, and Winchester 73 rifles.
Custom handling, firing, reloading, bullet ejection, and inspect sequences make each weapon feel distinct in first person.
Most firearms include an inspection animation, supported by custom sounds and visible ejection behavior.
Fast sidearms, hard-hitting precision rifles, quick reloads, large magazines, and extreme recoil create meaningful loadout choices.
The Peacemaker prioritizes speed, the Schofield reloads quickly, the Sharps excels at long range, and the Nitro Express trades safety and comfort for extraordinary power.
Most sidearms support cosmetic skins and firearm trinkets for more personal frontier loadouts.
Skin and trinket availability is listed per weapon in the reference browser. The Navy Revolver includes a documented Ornamental skin variant.
Server owners can tune individual weapon damage through straightforward INI values.
Every verified setting is collected in the configuration section and repeated on its relevant weapon entry.
Install the mod, craft or spawn a firearm and its matching ammunition, then choose a weapon whose handling suits the encounter.
Enable Cliffans Weapons: Western for the server or single-player world, then restart so its engrams and configuration initialize.
Use the reference browser to compare damage, capacity, fire rate, reload speed, recoil, and effective range.
Equip .36 Ball, 44-40, or 600 Nitro ammunition as listed on the selected weapon entry.
Account for recoil and reload behavior. The heaviest rifles reward crouched, deliberate fire, while faster revolvers favor responsive shooting.
Only verified commands are shown in this wiki. If a command is missing, it has not yet been confirmed for the current mod version.
Search the documented arsenal or compare its base stats. Damage tests were recorded against 500 armor with a base weapon, and unverified values are clearly identified or omitted.
A balanced single-action classic with the lowest pistol damage, low recoil, excellent reach, and the fastest pistol fire rate in the collection.

Its extreme recoil is an intended documented behavior when fired while standing. Crouch or go prone before firing.
The Peacemaker, Schofield, and Winchester use 44-40. The LeMat and Navy use .36 Ball. The Nitro Express uses 600 Nitro. The Sharps ammunition listing still needs confirmation.
