OK, so this may seem like a stupid question that's been answered many times before, but how good actually are yellow weapons?
I understand quality is a good thing but how much more effective does that make the weapon?
Any help appreciated!

To clarify, it's more about the stats and bonus over quality, a red 275% pen knife is still going to be beaten out stat-wise over even a yellow 101% armalite (stat-wise only, bonuses still have a huge impact in performance too!)

Every weapon has a 5 point range in damage an accuracy. For example take a hypothetical weapon with a 50-55 damage range and 50-55 accuracy range.

Normal weapons have their stats somewhere inside this range, and the quality is somewhere between 0 and 100, where 0 quality is 50 damage/50 acc, and 100% quality is 55 damage/55 accuracy. (Note a weapon with 55 damage/50 accuracy would be 50% quality).

Yellow weapons can have quality above 100%, most common is 100-140%, but there have been yellow weapons with 160% before.

What that translates to is, as an example, a 140% quality weapon could have 57 damage/57 accuracy. Or 59 damage/55 acccuracy. Or even 61 damage/53 accuracy. etc

Probably more important than the weapon stats is the RW weapon bonus. Things like Powerful, Focus, Empower, etc. Read up on that here https://wiki.torn.com/wiki/Weapon_Bonus
