Rust weapon shortnames and item IDs
Quick answer: every weapon in Rust is listed below with its shortname and item ID, for example Assault Rifle (rifle.ak), MP5A4 (smg.mp5), Revolver (pistol.revolver), Hunting Bow (bow.hunting) and Rocket Launcher (rocket.launcher). Give yourself one with inventory.give rifle.ak 1. This list comes straight from a Rust dedicated server (Rust build 26431843, read 2026-11-06), and it is refreshed after every Rust update.
This is the game’s own weapons category. Every item in one list is on Rust item shortnames, and the commands that take a shortname are on Rust admin commands. Other categories: Clothing and armor, Resources, Ammo, Tools and explosives, Construction, Deployables, Food, Components, Electrical, Medical, Traps, Fun, Vehicles, keycards and misc.
