How to Get Infinite Ammo in Garry’s Mod

Running out of ammo in Garry’s Mod can get annoying fast—especially if you’re testing weapons, building combat scenarios, or just messing around in sandbox. While GMod doesn’t always make infinite ammo obvious out of the box, there are a couple of easy ways to get around ammo limits. Whether you want a quick solution using built-in tools or a more permanent fix with an addon, this guide covers both.

Giving Yourself Tons of Ammo

If you don’t want to mess with console commands, you can effectively give yourself unlimited ammo using the Tool Gun and spawn menu. To give yourself ammo:

1. Press Q to open the Spawn Menu
2. Navigate to the Weapons tab
3. Select the weapon you want to use and right-click it
4. Select the Spawn with Toolgun option
5. Spam the weapon at your feet using your mouse to give yourself tons of ammo

This method works by constantly adding ammo to your inventory, letting you keep firing without worrying about running out.

This isn’t true infinite ammo, but in sandbox, it effectively works the same way for most players.

Using an Unlimited Ammo Addon

For a proper solution, it’s time to turn to the Garry’s Mod community. Using an addon is the easiest and most consistent method. There are a few addons on the workshop that you could use, but for the sake of this post, we’ll be using the Infinite Ammo addon.

How to Install:

1. Sign in to your Steam Account.
2. Go to the Garry’s Mod Workshop
3. Click Subscribe on the addon page linked above
4. Launch the game. Steam will automatically download and install the addon in the background

How to Use:

This addon adds one simple command which can be used to toggle it on and off through the console. That command is sv_infinite_ammo, followed by a number between 0 and 2. Each number sets the addon to a different state.

By default, it should be enabled, but if you want to test different settings or experiment with gameplay, here are your options:

• sv_infinite_ammo 0 – Disables the addon
• sv_infinite_ammo 1 – Enables the addon
• sv_infinite_ammo 2 – Enables the addon, but requires reloading

To use these, open the console, enter the command, and press enter again to apply it.

If you’re running a server, make sure you have permission to run these commands, as some settings may be restricted depending on the server configuration.

Conclusion

Getting infinite ammo in Garry’s Mod can be as simple or as advanced as you want. If you just need a quick workaround, using the spawn menu and Tool Gun can keep you stocked up. But for a true unlimited ammo experience, installing an addon is the way to go.

Either way, once ammo is no longer a limitation, you’re free to focus on what makes GMod gameplay great—experimentation, chaos, and creativity.
