Besides the stun stick, In Callisto protocol, the protagonist will find and create several firearms. Some weapons become available as you progress through the story, and to craft others you need to find the right blueprint. In this guide, we tell you how to find weapon blueprints and get all the weapons in the game.

How to craft and improve weapons
The Callisto protocol allows you to use five types of firearms:
- Single-shot pistol.
- Hunting rifle “Skunk”.
- Police shotgun.
- Combat gun.
- assault rifle.
Namely, the protagonist receives some weapons according to the plot “Single Shot Pistol” and “Police Shotgun”. To make the rest, you need to look for drawings. Below we show you how to find them all.
You can make a weapon from a drawing or improve any equipment with a special printer. You will be introduced to such devices in the third story chapter and will meet them in various locations until the end of the game.
To upgrade weapons and equipment, you need to spend a special currency: Callisto Credits. Explore locations, trample corpses and sell valuable items to earn a lot of credits quickly.
How to get a single shot pistol
The first barrel in the game is the Single Shot Pistol. You will receive it in the story during the passage of the third chapter. Having reached Elias’s new friend for the first time, he will give the hero a weapon base, for which you need to print a single-shot pistol module.
How to find the Skunk shotgun blueprint
Shotgun “Skunk” is a special module that is placed on the base of the gun. That is, the protagonist cannot quickly switch between a single-shot pistol and this shotgun. To do this, you just need to change the module.
The drawing of this weapon can be found in the third chapter. But you can also find it in the fourth chapter if you missed it in the previous chapter.
How to find the Skunk Shotgun in the Consequences chapter
Towards the end of the chapter you will reach a large location, which is divided into several halls (this is where you will be attacked by a parasite from a cocoon for the first time). At the beginning of the location you will see the lever that contains the fuse. The device itself is at the end of the location near the exit and will be needed to progress through the story.
Having picked up the fuse, do not rush to follow further. Better go back and insert it into the device next to the grille leading to the magazine. Go to the next room through the vent and find the blueprint.
How to find the Skunk Shotgun in the residential dome chapter
If you missed the blueprint in the previous chapter, you can find it here. You have to go to the oxygen purification station in the residential dome.
Enter the building and turn left. Go through the door and down the hallway to a dead end. There is a small hole here that will lead you to the corpse. On the right side of the boxes there will be a blueprint.
Weapon features
The shotgun has medium damage and is only relevant at close range or for finishing enemies when aiming strategically. The main drawback of the weapon is a small amount of ammunition – it contains only two cartridges. So you will have to charge it very often, which is an unaffordable luxury in some situations.
In addition, the shotgun uses special cartridges that are added to a separate inventory slot when picked up. This can significantly reduce overall capacity.
We do not recommend upgrading this weapon, as soon you will receive a more powerful weapon – a police rifle. In the early stages, this weapon is necessary for players trying to complete the Callisto protocol on a high difficulty setting.
How do you get a police shotgun?
The main character receives this barrel in the fifth chapter of the story, when he meets Dani in the hangar for the second time. Eliminate all enemies on the first floor and hack the electrical panel to get it.
Characteristics
The Police Shotgun packs impressive damage and is useful for repelling large groups of infected. This is especially true in dungeons, where the main character will come very soon after receiving the weapon. As you progress, we recommend purchasing all available upgrades for it and unlocking alternate fire. In this case, it becomes even more powerful.
How to find a drawing of a combat pistol
You will find a drawing of this weapon in the sixth chapter. When Jacob is separated from Dani and gets into the underground passages, you need to go to the first weapon upgrade device in this location (there is also a ladder with a sleeping undead).
In front of the printer room is a small room with a grille. Behind it is a table and various cupboards. The drawing is on the table. If you passed by the sleeping ghost, go up the stairs and find him.
Characteristics
Frankly, we didn’t understand why it was necessary to add two pistols to the game. Yes, it has a better rate of fire and separate ammunition capacity, but a fully pumped single-shot pistol with an alternate firing mode will not be inferior to a combat pistol in terms of performance. In addition, to create and improve it, you need to spend additional Callisto credits.
How to find an assault rifle blueprint
The last weapon in the game you can find is an assault rifle. The protagonist finds the drawing in the seventh chapter, in the colonists’ settlement.
When you reach the colony, you must first find an access card for the elevator. It is located on the top level of the colony, just like the automaton blueprint. Climb up the stairs and examine the distant containers on the right. A blueprint will hang in the toilet above the washbasins.
Characteristics
By default, the rifle fires three rounds. The damage to the weapon is quite small, so it is not clear why it was necessary to add such a barrel at the end of the game. It would make much more sense to give it in the early stages of passage. Even at maximum pumping, the damage will not be enough to destroy at least one ghoul with several cuts. Useful for finishing off enemies with strategic aiming, as well as in boss battles.
Similar to pistols, the assault rifle is a replaceable module that is placed on the base of the shotgun. Therefore, quickly turning the machine gun into a shotgun will not work.
