Damage and Fire Rate are the two main stats for a weapon in Free Fire - the combination of these two factors would decide a weapon's damage output. For balance reason - if a weapon has very high damage, its fire rate would be lowered... and vice versa.

In this article, we would list out the top 5 guns with the lowest fire rate in Free Fire.

5 - M1873

Fire Rate: 35

You can pretty much treat this as a "pocket shotgun" that you can carry in your secondary slot. Its usage is just like a normal shotgun... with lowered all-around stats - not too bad if you are stuck going close and personal inside a building. In real life, it is an older model of the M1887.

4 - SKS

Fire Rate: 35

The SKS is pretty much the same as the SVD but is much easier to find, and that's why it is generally considered better than the SVD. While SKS has slightly lower penetration and damage than the SVD, it has lower recoil and therefore easier to control. Both guns can achieve the same feat of defeating an enemy wearing a level 2 vest in 3 shots. The SKS's spread is also lower as well.

3 - SVD

Fire Rate: 34

The Dragunov SVD is a very powerful automatic sniper rifle that can only be found in airdrops and resupply points; it is one of the deadliest weapons in-game. The difference between the SVD and other weapons on this list is its armor penetration – combined with its decent fire rate, a player equipped with the Dragunov would be able to down an enemy wearing a level 2 vest in about 3 shots.

The weakness of the Dragunov is its slightly higher recoil and its rarity - the gun is pretty hard to find

2 - Desert Eagle

Fire Rate: 33

This weapon is probably the most useful gun in this class... and the closest to a normal weapon. The desert eagle has high damage, long-range... and decent stats all around - you can run extremely fast while holding it.

1 - Hand Cannon and All Sniper Rifles

Fire Rate: 27

Hand Cannon is a pistol that shoots grenades - it is like a grenade launcher that you can equip on your secondary weapon slot. Overall, you can use the gun like how you use a normal launcher... however, the twist here is that the Hand Cannon only have 10 range. With this weakness, you can't stand from afar and lob grenades like the usual grenade launcher - you need to go close and personal.

On the other hand, sniper rifles are the ultimate range weapons - they can deal extremely high damage at long range...at the cost of slower reload and fire.
