The Minishark is a machine gun that is "half gun, half shark, completely awesome" according to its description. It costs 35 Gold Coins and is sold by the Arms Dealer. The Minishark may use Musket Balls, Silver Bullets, Meteor Shot, Cursed Bullets and Crystal Bullets as ammunition. It does 6 damage at an "insanely fast speed". It is the second fastest weapon in Terraria, second only to the Megashark.

If the player has a lot of ammo for it, it can be very useful for taking out pre-hardmode bosses such as the Eye of Cthulhu and Skeletron.

Notes

• When talking to the Arms Dealer, he occasionally says "I see you're eyeballin' the Minishark... You really don't want to know how it was made."
• The Necro Armor's 20% chance to not consume ammo will stack with the Minishark's 33% chance, yielding a 53% chance that the player will not consume ammo. This means that roughly every second shot will not consume any ammo.
• Since the Minishark has 0 knockback, it cannot be reforged with the unreal prefix or any prefix that enhances knockback.
