Ranged weapons in Project Silverfish have access to a number of ammo types that can be switched to depending on the situation. To do so, hold the reload button (R by default), and select the ammo type you want to use by clicking on it.
The following tables show which ammunition is available in Project Silverfish. You can use the table of contents to jump to a category.
9mm
Used in Light Pistols, SMGs and PDWs.
9×19mm might not have the punch of heavier cartridges, but it makes up for it by being common, lighter, and cheaper.

.45, also known as .45 Auto or 11.43×23mm, is bigger and hits harder than 9mm, but it is less common, heavier, more expensive.
