All Weapons, Tools & Upgrades in Silver Pines

In Silver Pines, a crowbar is a key, a shotgun is a key, and a sledgehammer is the most useful key of all. Half the town stays locked until you’re carrying the right thing, and the other half wants to eat you while you look for it.

This guide covers every weapon, upgrade, and tool in the game, and exactly how to get each one, including the three weapons you only unlock by finishing it. If you are looking for more help, check out our full walkthrough or our guide for each of the Memento and Vessel shard locations.

Where to find the Box Cutter

It’s lying outside Rodney’s General Store, right after you raid the freezer.

1. Open the freezer with 2311 and take the Check-in Key.
2. Pick up the Box Cutter outside the store. It’s a flimsy melee weapon, but it also cuts cloth and plastic tarps.

Where to find the Snub .38 Revolver

It’s in Eddie’s Grizzly Suite at the Crimson Bear Motel.

1. Take the Grizzly Suite Keycard from the pool changing rooms.
2. Open the suite and take the Snub .38 Revolver and the ammo next to it.

Where to find the 1911 Service Pistol

It’s in the Union Apartments supervisor’s lockbox, next to the Floor 4 Button.

1. Read the four newspaper cutouts in the supervisor’s office and match each tenant to a room: the artist in 1C, the cat lady in 3A, the writer in 2A, and the paranoid tenant in 3C.
2. Enter 1C, 3A, 2A, 3C on the lockbox and take the 1911 Service Pistol. It reloads a full clip at once, which makes it my favorite gun for the 4B boss.

Where to find the W-500 Shotgun

It’s in the gift shop weapon locker at the Crimson Bear Motel, and the code is 6671.

1. Dial 58883 from a payphone to reach the crying woman in room 3. She gives you the code.
2. Enter 6671 on the locker upstairs in the main building and take the W-500 Shotgun and the buckshot.

Where to find the Double Barrel Shotgun

It’s behind the chain-link cage in Ammo Zone, and the code is 2367.

1. Get into Ammo Zone through the back door with ♠ ♥ ♣ ♦, then come back with the flashlight.
2. Read the jersey upstairs (“23” and “Class of 67”) and enter 2367 on the cage. Fight off the two enemies and take the Double Barrel Shotgun.

Where to find The North Star

The cowboy in the Quiet Hour Cafe leaves it to you.

1. Talk to the man in the cafe once. He gives you free 12ga Slugs.
2. Come back to the cafe after the cemetery. He’s been shot, and The North Star, a lever-action shotgun, is waiting at his table with three boxes of slugs.

Where to find the Model 7 Rifle

It’s in the Sheriff’s Office armory, and the Armory Key is on the bed in Cell B.

1. Head down the basement corridor to the holding cells and take the Armory Key from the bed in Cell B.
2. Open the armory and take the Model 7 Rifle. Its ammo sits in a locker nearby.

Where to find the S-1 Carbine

It’s in a padlocked crate in the fishing shack on the Church Hill docks, and the combination is 4514.

1. Head down to the Church Hill docks and find the fishing shack.
2. Enter 4514 on the crate and take the S-1 Carbine. It uses the same .223 rounds as the Model 7 and fires twice as fast.

Where to find the Swedish K SMG

It’s in the Church Hill funeral home attic.

1. Take the Attic Key upstairs in the funeral home and open the attic.
2. Grab the Swedish K SMG and the ammo. The priest’s war memorabilia is up there too. The Ammo Zone and Thelend vending machines sell 9mm rounds for it.

It’s in the Downtown cinema projector room, and you buy the key.

1. Buy the Projector Room Key from the vending machine at the cinema entrance for $20.
2. Open the projector room and take the Nailgun.

Where to find the .44 Magnum

It’s the Sheriff’s, and you take it off him in the sewers, right before Cable Station Bell E.

1. Turn on all three flow controls and crank the pressure wheels to maximum to open the main gate.
2. The Sheriff pins you down and tries to choke you. Follow the button prompts to throw him off.
3. Beat him and take the .44 Magnum, the strongest handgun in the game.

Where to find the Blade

The Blade hides in a red graffiti room behind the cracked wall at the Riverside entrance, and it’s my favorite melee weapon in the game.

1. Smash the cracked wall on the far right of the “Welcome to Riverside” sign with the sledgehammer, then fight your way right.
2. Pull the old paper cutter loose in the red graffiti room. Its blade comes away in your hand, sharp but fragile.

Where to find the Baseball Bat

It’s lying in the Market Street backlot, behind the Ammo Zone padlock.

1. Read the “Stack your odds, become a member” sign through the Ammo Zone front window. It shows ♠ ♥ ♣ ♦.
2. Set the backlot padlock to the same four symbols and pick up the Baseball Bat.

Where to find the Pipe Bomb

It’s in the Ammo Zone stairwell, behind a door that only the Crank Handle opens.

1. Come back to Ammo Zone once you have the Crank Handle from Church Hill.
2. Use it on the crank box in the stairwell and take the Pipe Bomb, a throwable explosive. I also found one in the basement near the fuse box on Mt. Siah Kopa.

How to unlock the Switchblade and the Omega Rifle

Finish the game. The Leave ending unlocks the Switchblade, and the Live ending unlocks the Omega Rifle, fully loaded, with 30 Magnetic Slugs. Both wait for you at the start of your next game.

2. Collect all 25 mementos, spare Eddie, and let Drew burn them for the Live ending and the Omega Rifle.

Where to find the car trunk weapons

Two car trunks hold extra gear: the motel courtyard car and the bowling car on Silver Road.

1. Shoot the vent high on the wall in Crimson Bear Room 3 and crawl in for the Motel Car Key. It opens the courtyard car trunk, which holds ammo and a weapon.
2. Pick up the Bowling Car Key near the flooded basement by the Union Apartments. It opens the trunk of the car outside the bowling alley, and the Extended Magazine Tube for the W-500 is inside.

All Silver Pines Weapon Upgrades

There are seven weapon upgrades. Spare Parts aren’t one of them: combine them with Duct Tape for a Makeshift Repair Kit.

How to get the Six-Shot Cylinder

Combine the Weapon Utility Case from the Sheriff’s armory with the Weapon Case Key from the morgue.

2. Shoot the ceiling vent in the morgue, crawl through to Cell A, and take the Metal Handle you could see from the holding cells.
3. Fit the handle on the cold storage door opposite the corpse and take the Weapon Case Key from the jacket.
4. Combine the key with the case for the Six-Shot Cylinder. Your Snub .38 gets a sixth round.

How to get the Double Action Mechanism

1. Hop the fence to the right of the cable car building and take the Quiet Hour Key.
2. Open the lockbox at the back of the cafe for the Double Action Mechanism. It nearly halves the time between shots on the Snub .38.

Where to find the Rifle Scope

It’s tucked in a purse at the cable car station.

There are two: one in the Downtown liquor store, and one under the staircase by the Workshop sign at Thelend Broadcasting.

1. Grab the first kit in the Downtown liquor store.
2. Crawl under the stairs at Thelend Broadcasting, just past the back door, for the second. Each kit shortens the Model 7 or the Double Barrel so it takes 3 inventory slots instead of 5.

All Silver Pines Tools

Tools are the reusable items that open new paths, and most of those paths run through places you’ve already cleared.

Where to find the Sledgehammer

It’s on the upper street by the Church Hill cemetery.

1. Head up the street toward the cemetery and pick up the Sledgehammer.
2. It smashes the cracked walls you’ve been walking past all game, and it doubles as a very heavy weapon.

1. Run all the way left along the first street and vault the ledge.
