[[Weapons]] are a precious commodity in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. The number of attainable '''weapons in GTA IV''' has dropped to 15. In-game weapons are harder to find, and have been moved to the top of buildings and back alleys, out of the way, although weapons are commonly found before big "shootout" missions in plain sight for the player to find. Weapons and ammo that have been dropped by fallen enemies now realistically lie on the ground with a distinctive red-orange glow to catch the player's eye, instead of floating in mid-air like in other [[Grand Theft Auto]] games. | [[Weapons]] are a precious commodity in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]].

Unarmed, the player is able to dodge attacks, disarm opponents, and perform ground [[Fist|punches]] and kicks, lefts and rights, and uppercuts and jabs. Moves can be strung together to create a combo. On some occasions, the player can perform "Stun" hits. Fighting unarmed is the best way to fight someone without killing them, something that can be important in several missions. With the fist selected as current weapon, the player can pick up random objects off the streets, such as a brick or a bottle, however the player cannot switch weapons while an item is picked up, unless the item is a thrown item such as a brick. Oddly, all items on the street that the player picks up do the same damage when thrown at someone. | Unarmed, the player is able to dodge attacks, disarm opponents, and perform ground [[Fist|punches]] and kicks, lefts and rights, and uppercuts and jabs.

The [[ | The [[M16|M4A1 Carbine]] entered service in the late 1990s-early 2000s as an automatic modification for the original [[wikipedia:Colt M4|Colt M4]] in service with the United States military (which had a "safe-semi-burst" trigger group) to fill a special forces order. Due to the events of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Hollywood_shootout 1997 North Hollywood Shootout], Police Forces now have access to these rifles as well. It is gas-operated and air-cooled, with a cyclic firing rate of 700 to 900 rounds per minute. Overall length is 33 inches (with stock extended) and the barrel length is 14.5 inches. The Carbine is more accurate than the [[AK-47]] but less powerful. It mounts a small sight on the receiver's Picatinny rail, but no attachments can be mounted on it. It can be acquired from most [[NOOSE]] officers and [[Federal Bureau of Investigation#Grand Theft Auto IV|FIB]] agents as well as certain [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] officers, specifically those who guard [[Subway in GTA IV|subway stations]] and [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era/New York Landmarks|landmark areas]]. | ||
