Metro: Last Light Ammo and attachments: spend currency wisely

Compare weapon roles and original Last Light gun-shop upgrades.

Edition covered

Gameplay reference follows original 2013 Metro: Last Light. The five publisher pictures explicitly show the 2014 Last Light Redux release because original store media is unavailable. Redux Survival/Spartan modes are not original-game options; Ranger and DLC availability depend on the original package.

Quick notes

Military-grade ammunition. Military-grade rounds are currency and an optional stronger ammunition type for compatible guns.
Attachment decisions. Gun shops fit compatible attachments such as sights and silencers.
Build complementary roles. A close-defense weapon and a more precise option cover different threats.
Spend for the next journey. Filters and usable ammunition can be more important than a marginal weapon improvement before a surface excursion.
