How to Find All Guns in Sons of the Forest: Sons of the Forest isn’t just about surviving the great outdoors, it’s also about tangling with horrific cave monsters and cannibals. You are going to want to load up on all the weapons you can find, including a selection of guns, bows, and some weirder melee options.
We will list all the premade lootable weapons (not the crafted ones) for you here along with their general locations, which you can also reference on the interactive Sons of the Forest map. Below that, we will go over the specific locations for some of the best weapons you’ll want to add to your arsenal.

Slingshot Location in Sons of the Forest
The slingshot, which can be loaded with small rocks, is found on one of the three staked bodies outside the cave with the shovel. It’s an easy one to find early if you aren’t quite ready to hunt down the proper projectile weapons.
Pistol Location in Sons of the Forest
You’ll find the pistol out on the same raft that’s marked by one of the GPS locators. It’s beside a dead body offshore of the beach on the western coast of the island. There are sharks out here in the ocean waiting to chomp on you before you reach the inflatable raft. You’ll find the pistol on top of a brochure.
There’s another pistol on the southeast corner of the island in a cave marked by a green GPS point of interest beside a large lake. This one requires a maintenance keycard to get though, so I took my luck with the shark raft.
Shotgun Location in Sons of the Forest
The shotgun is also found on one of the GPS locators. It’s inside the grave in the northwest corner of the island, which requires the shovel to uncover. Grab this one in the summer or spring seasons if you can. I ran into an issue in the autumn where the fallen leaves prevented me from grabbing anything out of the grave after I’d dug it up.
There is a second shotgun on the eastern coast of the map at a green GPS point of interest. You will need the VIP keycard to get into the double door facility here, so take your pick on whether grabbing that or the shovel for the grave is quickest. The shotgun is laying on the top of the bar in the big entertaining room.
Stun Gun Location in Sons of the Forest
The stun gun is a super handy tool for dealing with multiple enemies. Stun those suckers if you want to create a bit of distance. The taser is located in the same beach cave as the rebreather. You will take the opposite path this time, heading to the right side of the cave illuminated by a light on the ground when you see a fork in your path.
Continue past quite a few enemies and a radio hanging from the ceiling. You will find the stun gun also hanging from the ceiling beside a dead worker’s body at the dead end of this path.
