Can You Customize Rare Guns in Red Dead Redemption 2?

Unfortunately, players can not customize rare guns at Gunsmiths or anywhere else in Red Dead Redemption 2. Rare guns are not customizable because they have a unique look, and customizing them would strip away their rare nature.

If you can’t notice its unique look initially, go into first-person mode and get a better look at the special design for the rare gun you’re using. The good news is that players can increase rare guns’ maximum potential by continuously using them, gaining Affinity. Gaining Affinity for any particular weapon will increase its stats overall. You can keep track of the Affinity for any specific gun by heading into the Compendium.
