Right to Bear Arms
Player cheat
Originally earned by completing the Social Club Challenge named below.
What it does
Arms every civilian NPC with a weapon.
How to unlock it
Reward for the Tesoro Azul Challenge: kill the gang leader without using Dead Eye, kill 7 enemies with throwing knives, and find 3 treasure chests (clearing the Tesoro Azul gang hideout and rescuing a hostage deputy). Only playable after completing 'The Demon Drink' mission. Guides for the PS4, Switch and PC releases list it as unlocked from the start.
Every way to enter it
There is no phrase to type for this one. Once it is unlocked it appears in the Cheats list, where it is switched on and off.
Saving and trophies
Can I save the game with a cheat active?
No. Enabling a code stops that file from saving, permanently, even after you switch the cheat off. Reload a save made before you used it.
Do cheats disable achievements and trophies?
Yes, and for good on that save file. The game warns that enabling a code permanently prevents saving and trophies. Switching the cheat off does not undo it, so load a save from before you used any cheat.
