Instead of just "sniper" and "pistol" I think it'd be pretty cool if guns were specific. Like pistols would be M1911s, USPs, etc.. just specific names. Some snipers might be the Barret .50 caliber. That weapon could be a very expensive weapon to purchase on the market but is basically a one-hit kill to any enemies and has a very long range. Some shotguns could be the Sawed Off shotguns, basically a one hit down/kill close range, with its huge spread. An auto-shotgun might be very expensive due to its rate of fire and damage output. New rifles could be the M16, Ak47, and the M14. Different merchants might sell different weapons. The pirate bands might sell many AK47s due to the amount of them and the reliability they have. AK47s and M16s would have different stats, one might be more accurate while the other one gives more damage.
Bullet types are also a suggestion, .22 bullets might be cheap and easy to come by, while .50 bullets are very expensive and an emergency-only ammunition in your colony.
