DayZ Projectile Category

The Projectile category in DayZ is considered launchers of other items. For example, a launcher includes items like the Grenade Launcher, Flare Gun, RPG or Crossbow. The word Projectile is a broad term for an independent object under the influence of gravity and air resistance, so could be any object launched from any gun in DayZ. For the sake of simplicity then, the Projectile category in DayZ is reserved for items that fire projectiles, yet don't produce flying bullets. Instead of a bullet an RPG creates a flying rocket projectile, a crossbow creates a flying bolt projectile, a Flare Gun creates a flying Flare projectile, etc.

About DayZ Weapons

DayZ weapons have a lot of stats that impact how a weapon will react to different situations. These stats can be changed slightly or drastically by attaching attachments to your weapons in DayZ.

With most weapons allowing attachments in DayZ, you can customise how your weapon performs in-game. However, most weapon attachments don't do much to improve your weapon.
