There are a total of 53 unique weapons in Far Cry 6 that are divided into several categories:
Rifles Submachine Guns Light Machine Guns Sniper Rifles Shotguns Bows Launchers Pistols Auto-Pistols
These weapons have better stats and perks than the guns players can pick off the ground. One type of special weapon is the One Ping Only Rifle gained through “The Lion’s Den” mission.

The Lion’s Den Operation
WARNING: Spoilers for Far Cry 6.
Players will be able to access this mission once they’ve done the following:
Completed the main missions in Madrugada, El Este, and Valle de Oro. Complete certain missions (ex: “Against the Wall”) that take place in Esperanza, and therefore running into Anton Castillo.
Head to the objective marker on the map and accept the quest from Juan Cortez. Be warned that accepting this quest will limit weapons and gear (sans grappling hook). In addition, Dani will not be able to leave until after the mission has been completed. Start by inspecting the plaque on the statue of El Guardian of Esperanza.
Reach Castillo’s Manor
The player will then be taken to a new location. Use the grappling hook to cross gaps and scale cliffs. There’s an area with 3 red towers that players will want to look for. There are 5 alarms outside the manor. Zipline down to the barracks and quietly enter the building and steal the keycard. Then, enter the mansion area.
NOTE: Despite Dani’s Yaran Officer disguise, officers will grow suspicious if the player gets too close. Avoid killing anyone in this part of the mission to make the process easier.
Find Clara
Unlike the previous area, the Yaran disguise won’t work. This is a stealth-based mission and being caught will result in game-over.
The goal is to get inside the villa while avoiding the 4 alarms stationed in the vicinity. To get into the villa, head north and go through the door on the right. Go up the stairs and stealth-kill the soldier. From there, head to the other side of the courtyard and enter the door.
TIP: Remain crouched as much as possible.
Upon entering, a cutscene will occur.
Secure Anton’s Villa
At this point, Dani will have access to all their weapons again and finally be able to fight back. Players will need to fend off wave after wave of enemies until the villa is “secured." Watch the Far Cry 6 minimap to see which direction they’re coming from to make it easier.
After this, talk to Juan to complete “The Lion’s Den Operation." Players will then have the P226 Pistol and the One Ping Only Rifle.

One Ping Only Stats
The One Ping Only Rifle has a 900 rate of fire and a 20 magazine. Like other unique Far Cry weapons, this rifle cannot be modded. While the velocity and stealth aren’t outstanding, the damage and accuracy will make it worth using.
