Most game weapons, like real weapons, require ammunition in order to be fired. Each weapon contains a small amount of ammo when picked up; additional ammo is provided by ammo pickups and dead zombies. Duplicate weapons function as ammo pickups.

The player can only carry a limited amount of each type of ammo, though certain powerups may raise these limits (see below). When a limit is reached, the player is temporarily unable to collect ammo pickups of that type. If he collects an ammo pickup which would raise his total stock above the maximum, he receives only enough to reach the maximum; the extra ammo disappears.
