[edit] Weapons

Main article: List of technology in Judge Dredd

Judges are only able to carry two weapons at a time. If a weapon is depleted of ammo, it is no longer usable and must be replaced by a newly picked up weapon.

• Lawgiver: It is the main weapon the Judges use. It has six modes of fire for the same magazine. The weapon is controlled by voice activation.
  • Execution: With 64 bullets per magazine, this is the standard bullet and provides a fast rate of fire and mediocre damage.
  • Armour Piercing: Holds 32 bullets per magazine and strong enough to pierce any type of metal as well as enemies.
  • Ricochet: Contains 32 shots per magazine with the ability to ricochet between walls, proving useful in tight situations.
  • Incendiary: Fires 8 shots per magazine, and sets the target ablaze.
  • High Explosive: Fires 8 shots per magazine, and does much damage to its target. Dredd must be careful with this mode because it can also affect him, and when fired it acts similar to an explosive weapon.
  • Heat Seeker: Fires 8 shots per magazine, locking onto heat sources to hit the target effectively.
• Arbitrator: Able to annihilate an armored person when used in close range although it does less damage when fired at long range.
• Lawrod Rifle: Similar to the Lawgiver Mark 2, however this is an advanced version with greater accuracy and range. It has two firing modes, one functioning as a sniper weapon, and other as an assault rifle.
• Stumm Gas Grenade: Used for Street Judges, and does minimal damage although causes enemies to choke and lose consciousness.
• Pistol: The most common weapon in Mega City. Citizens can use this weapon to attack, and threaten, others..
• Split Gun: Gun which is at close, but lacks accuracy over long distances.
• Stump Gun:
• Grenade Launcher: Best fired at large areas, launching explosive grenades.
• Las Pistol:
