Budget Arms

Budget Arms, often stylized as BudgetArms, is a weapons manufacturer in the Cyberpunk universe.

Overview
True to its name, the company specializes in manufacturing very low cost, very low quality weapons that are even readily available from street vending machines.

Budget Arms does not beat around the bush in regards to the quality of their products; Advertising focuses heavily on being the "Johnny-on-the-spot" weapon that pulls you out of a sticky situation at a very affordable, almost gimmicky, price. As a result, weapons from Budget Arms are notoriously prone to backfire on users and the cheap plastics used in most of their weapons tends to melt due to heat exposure. For this reason, Budget Arms adds disclaimers to some of their firearms to simply "discard after use" as opposed to attempting to reload or maintain.

By the 2070s, Budget Arms had conceived a retail franchise brand known as 2nd Amendment that can be found all throughout Night City. Despite these being a division of Budget Arms, most franchisees only stock the Budget Arms Add-Vantage scope attachment.
