These are all the weapons that can be crafted within the current version of 7 Days To Die at the time of writing. Players can make any of these weapons simply by having read the required magazine within the game for their character to have learned how to craft it, and by then having the required materials. Once a player reaches a workbench, they can craft any of the weapons above that their heart desires.
Players will want to make sure they have the best weapons that they can so they will be able to expand their base or search around it for much-needed materials and items. However, players will also need to heavily protect themselves, especially since zombies will attack a base whether a player is inside or not. It is smart to also be prepared for the Blood Moon phase within the game as well, which triggers even more monsters to spawn.
Do remember that while the level of a weapon might require more knowledge within the game or more materials, it can be extremely important to have a higher-level weapon to take down enemies quickly.
