Ork Gunz

Da Orks love their Choppas, make no mistake about that. But they also love putting lots of holes into Gaurdsmen, Elfdar, Marines (both of the Spikey and Non Spikey varieties) and Nids at a distance while making alot of noise. Thats why they have their Gunz.

Da Basikz

Sluggas

A simple automatic pistol with a bore diameter in the area of 30mm and the most common Ork gun you might find, allowing these primitive contraptions (comprable to rough modern firearms) to match the power of the Imperial flashlight. Usually low ranking Orks have one of these, blasting at their targets as they close in to hack them to bits, as well as pistol whiping their enemies in close quarters.

Shootas

An Ork Rifle, fully automatic used to spray and pray (going easy on the latter bit) and are not the most accurate weapons to begin with. As Orks like to travel in big groups, this is less of a concern than one might think it would be because of sheer volume of fire they bring to bear.

Big Shootas

Big Shootas are put onto vehicles, in clustered stationary mounts, or carried by Orks that have an obsession with having the biggest, loudest and most destructive shootas possible. They are heavy caliber weapons even by Ork standards used to saturate the enemy with as much heavy fire as possible.

Skorchas

Not so much a gun as a furious campfire, the Skorcha is the Ork answer to a need for a Flamer. Given to pyromani-orks, these weapons are devastating, especially if wielded en-masse (and they always are). They are also explosive due to the huge backpack full of propane and propane accessories that the wielder needs to fuel the weapon. Skorchas can also be used to cut and fuse metal, giving a practical use to those Orks who love to see their fellows "do the burny dance."

Rokkit Launchas

Nothing more than sticks with rockets and blast shields on one end and a trigger on the other. They have a very short range compared to other races' missiles, but Orks never do anything halfway, so they come on the cheap. Mounted on all Ork vehicles and carried by Tankbustas.

Looted Stuff

Ork use all of the crap that they swipe off dead enemies, especially their guns. No matter the foe, every Ork and Grot in the warband swarms the battlefield post-fight to pick up the best gubbins for themselves. Deff Skulls especially enjoy this practice (as well as stealing the best bits from the enemy beforehand, and from their buddies later). When an Ork either can't use the weapon, wants it tricked out, or feels that the gun would look better strapped into a shoulder mount with twelve of its companions, they take it to the local Mekboy along with a pocketful of teef. The Mekboys takes the guns and customizes them to their desires.
