In Dead Rising 2 for the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, there are a total of fourteen ranged weapons scattered throughout the game that you can use on zombies to go toward the “Death from Afar” achievement/trophy.
Note that you don’t have get a kill with these weapons, you just have to use the ranged function on the weapon to hit them with it at least once. Most of these are fairly easy to find, just browse the local stores to find them.
