Similarly to many other weapons in the game, like pistols, the secondary weapons are unlocked by completing missions. You can also unlock these weapons by performing particular tasks while on these missions.

Below is the list of all the secondary weapons in Sniper Elite 5 and how you can unlock them. 

  • M1A1 GOV. – Unlocked at the start of the game.
  • Welgun SMG – Unlocked at the start of the game.
  • Stengun MK2 – Unlocked after completing Mission 6.
  • Machine PIST.40 – Unlocked after completing Mission 1's kill challenge.

How to complete Mission 1: To unlock the Machine PIST.40, you need to take out the kill target with an explosion. You can do this using any explosive, such as a grenade, or by shooting an explosive canister to eliminate the target. 

  • Machine Pist.44 – Unlocked after completing Mission 4's kill challenge.

How to complete Mission 4: To unlock the Machine PIST.44, you must eliminate the target using a Rat bomb. You can find a Rat bomb upstairs in the building where you begin the mission. To kill the target, you can lure him towards the bomb and blow it up when he's close. Otherwise, you can incapacitate him and carry him to the bomb to set it off and kill him; the choice is yours.  

  • Type 100 – Unlocked after completing Mission 5's kill challenge.

How to complete Mission 5: To unlock the Type 100, you must complete the kill challenge by burying the target in concrete. Start by knocking out the target instead of killing him. Then take him to the upper level of the construction site, where you'll see the concrete machine you can sabotage. Once it starts pouring concrete onto the ground below, throw him over the railing into the concrete to complete the challenge.
