Ammu-Nation, the Grand Theft Auto series' gun store chain, returns in Grand Theft Auto VI. Its appearance in official trailer footage is one of the clearer threads tying the new game to the wider Rockstar back catalogue, and it arrives alongside a weapons economy Rockstar has already sketched out: two new gun brands, a two-handgun, one-long-gun carry cap, and two-layer customization.
The chain's confirmed showcase is in Trailer 2, which features an in-world Ammu-Nation commercial around the 2:09 mark. The track playing over it, "I Love Rock 'n' Roll", carries an unresolved attribution dispute: RockstarINTEL credits the Joan Jett version, while GameSpot credits The Arrows, who recorded the original. Neither attribution has been settled, and the disagreement gets its own page at the I Love Rock 'n' Roll dispute.
The commercial also fronts a mulleted man who resembles Phil Cassidy, the gun-dealing character from Vice City and GTA III, a resemblance reported by Den of Geek. Because the original Phil lost an arm in Vice City and the man in the commercial appears to have both, fans theorise this is his son rather than Phil himself. That is fan reasoning, not anything Rockstar has confirmed; the full easter-egg breakdown lives at Phil Cassidy's Ammu-Nation.
Series context: Ammu-Nation has been the series' firearms retailer since the early 3D era, so its return was widely expected. How it plugs into GTA 6's confirmed systems, the garage-locker loadout and the skins-and-attachments customization, has not been detailed. See GTA 6 weapons for what is confirmed so far.
