WARNING: Not all manufacturers can be used on all weapons. For example, a Jakobs RPG will be a weapon with no level requirement and be very weak, regardless of what quality is used, because Jakobs does not make RPGs and as such there is nothing in-game to reference.

[gd_manufacturers.Manufacturers.]:
The following chart only applies to the [gd_manufacturers.Manufacturers.] section, you can make a gun with a Jakobs manufacturer and Hyperion material and the weapon will keep the stats and use the looks and benefits a Hyperion gun has.

- The following table only applies to the [gd_manufacturers.Manufacturers.] section of items; it describes the required character levels for each quality level or grade for all Manufacturers. For instance, as you can tell the Manufacturers required character level of 48 is for an item grade or quality of [Q5].
- The requirement levels have a linear relationship with the weapon's base damage - a weapon/grenade mod of the same requirement level has the same base damage, regardless of its manufacturer. For example, the base damage of a repeater pistol having requirement level 13 is 31 damage; the SandSMunitions & Tediore both have a requirement of level 13 at [Q1], ultimately, these both have the same base damage.
