GTA 5 can be played over and over again, each time providing a unique experience. This would not have been possible if the game had no mods for it. There's no end to the variety that mods can bring to the game, from graphics to gameplay to adding new content.

New content doesn't always need to alter the game drastically. Simple add-on/replacement mods for weapons and cars can be quite enjoyable. This article examines a few weapon mods that every player in 2022 should try.

Shrewsbury in Grand Theft Auto 5 manufactures AKM derivatives that are based on the Norinco Type 56-2. This mod brings over the original AKM from Max Payne 3 to GTA 5.
