The Rebar Gun is a ranged weapon that shoots Rebars. It can be used to kill hostile creatures.

Usage
The Rebar Gun is a short-to-mid-ranged, single-shot weapon with high per-shot damage but a slow reload. A shot with the default ammo deals three times the damage of a strike with the, making it the second most powerful weapon in terms of damage per hit, only beaten by the.

Unlike the hitscan, the Rebar Gun's shots are tracked as projectiles, with both flight time and a ballistic arc. This means the player must compensate for lead and distance at range. The fairly rapid drop of the fired rebars limits the weapon's effective maximum range, meaning it is unable to engage targets at extreme distances as the Rifle can.

Holding will allow the player to choose between ammunition types. The basic ammo fires a single solid rebar: while this will visibly stick into enemies and terrain, it cannot be retrieved after being fired. The three alternate types are diverse in their functions and make the weapon very flexible: Stun Rebars allow the weapon to paralyze enemies for 5 seconds, dealing minimal damage but allowing the player to finish them off with melee strikes and save ammo, while Shatter and Explosive Rebars respectively convert the Rebar Gun to resemble a shotgun and a grenade launcher. The Explosive Rebars can be also be used to break destructible boulders or clear terrain.

The Shatter rebar shoots 15 smaller shots each fire, each landed smaller shot deals 2 damage.
