'''''Godzilla Minus One''''' (Japanese: ゴジラ-1.0; '''''Gojira Mainasu Wan''''') is the 2023 installment of Toho's long-running [[Godzilla_(disambiguation)|''Godzilla'' franchise]], written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki. It is the 37th film in the franchise and the the 33rd film by Toho.

In 1947, Japan is still recovering from the devastation of the Second World War. Navy veteran Kōichi Shikishima (Ryunosuke Kamiki) tries to rebuild his life and move on from his experiences during the war, when Japan is beset by a new crisis: a massive, mutated creature known as Godzilla that is wrecking havoc at sea, and has set its sights on mainland Japan.

=Rifles=
==Arisaka Type 99 ==
The maintenance personnel on Odo Island attempt to defend themselves against Godzilla with [[Arisaka Type 99]]s, which prove completely ineffective.

==M1 Garand==
Period footage of General Douglas MacArthur features US servicemen holding [[M1 Garand]] rifles in the background.

=Machine Guns=
==Type 93 heavy machine gun==
The minesweeper ''Shinsei Maru'' is equipped with a single [[Type 93 heavy machine gun]], used to detonate mines once they're brought to the surface. Their fellow minesweeping ship ''Kaishin Maru'' is also armed with a single Type 93, as is a boat of similar size (''Kuroshio 12'') seen later in the film. The weapon is correctly referred to as being 13mm in dialogue.

==Type 97 aircraft machine gun==
The A6M Reisen fighter flown by Shikishima is armed with a pair of [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] above the engine.
[[File:Type 97.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Type 97 aircraft machine gun - 7.7x56mmR]]

==Type 97 tank machine gun==
Several Chi-To tanks are seen attempting to drive Godzilla out of Ginza. In addition to their Type 5 75mm main cannon, each tank is also equipped with a [[Type 97 tank machine gun]] in the hull. Like the Shinden, the Chi-To was developed very late in the war and intended for the defense of the home islands, but extremely few were produced.

=Cannons=
==20mm/70 Mark 4==
The damaged and adrift American merchantman is armed with several [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon]]s, designated 20mm/70 Mark 4 in US service; she also features a pair of deck guns, one each at the bow and stern.
[[Image:20mm Oerlikon Cannon.jpg|thumb|none|400px|20mm/70 Mark 4 - 20x110mmRB]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Oerlikon 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|''Shinsei Maru'' inspects a severely damaged American merchantman, its bow and stern cannons visible here. A pair of Oerlikons sit just forward of the stern deck gun.]]

An Oerlikon with a gun shield can be seen on the less damaged port side of the forward deck, with another two at the front and rear port corners of the bridge. Their three starboard equivalents have ceased to exist.]]

==Type 99 cannon==
The Zero is also armed with a pair of [[Type 99 cannon]]s in the wings. Tachibana urges Shikishima to get in his parked fighter and blast the monster with the cannons as it walks in front, however Shikishima, paralyzed with fear, is unable to open fire. The cannons are referred to by calibre in dialogue, with Tachibana noting that the 20mm cannons should be far more effective than their rifles.
[[image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|450px|Top: Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mmRB / Bottom: Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mmRB]]

==Type 5 cannon==
The J7W1 Shinden interceptor is armed with four Type 5 cannons in the nose; the upper two cannons are removed from the aircraft in preparation for the battle. The weapons are again referred to by calibre (30mm) in dialogue, as well as correctly noting their capacity of 60 rounds per gun. The J7W was an experimental defense fighter which first flew only days before the atomic bombs were dropped. Only two were built in reality (with one preserved today) though in this universe it's implied that a small handful were produced before war's end, retained for defense of the home islands. A full-scale replica Shinden was built for the film, its high detail extending to the cockpit as well as internal components such as the engine and cannons. This replica now lives at the Tachiarai Peace Memorial Museum.

==12.7cm/40 Type 89==
In addition to her primary armament of ten 20cm/50 3rd Year Type No.2 cannons (actually 20.3cm) in five twin turrets, heavy cruiser ''Takao'' features four twin [[Type 89 naval gun|12.7cm/40 Type 89 cannons]] for long range anti-air work.
[[File:Type89navalgun.jpg|thumb|none|350px|12.7cm/40 Type 89 twin mount - 127x580mmR]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 89 naval gun 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|''Takao'' arrives to assist, preparing to fire a volley of ten 203mm shells.

[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 89 naval gun 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|The cruiser's main guns fire, illuminating the ship. Two of her twin Type 96 mounts can be seen as well, on the platforms either side of the bridge superstructure.]]

==Type 96 cannon==
In terms of lighter AA, ''Takao'' also mounts several twin [[Type 96 cannon]]s. ''Takao'' is noted as returning from Singapore, given back to Japan as a means of defending against Godzilla, rather than being scuttled (as historically happened).
[[Image:Type 96 25mm twin.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Type 96 twin mount - 25x163mm]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 96 cannon 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Godzilla attacks the ship's bridge, giving a good view of one of the Type 96 twin mounts, its barrels visible just to the left of the funnel smoke.]]

=Other=
==Disarmed Destroyers==
The ships which appear in the film, notably ''Takao'' and the four destroyers previously mentioned (''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', ''Keyaki'') were all among the very few IJN ships to survive the war, thus their appearances are very much appropriate. The destroyers were disarmed after the war, with their lighter mounts removed and their main armament either removed or simply left in place with the barrels cut off. As a portion of the guns remain present, even if no longer functional, they'll all be noted together in one entry. All of these destroyers were previously armed with varying numbers of Type 96 cannons and/or Type 93 machine guns, though all have been completely removed.

''Kagerou''-class destroyer ''Yukikaze'' retains her forward turret, its two 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons left in place with the barrels cut off at the forward edge of the turret. ''Akatsuki''-class destroyer ''Hibiki'' also retains her turrets, originally armed with the same guns, though it appears hers were removed entirely. ''Minekaze''-class destroyer ''Yuukaze'' was armed with four single 12cm/45 3rd Year Type cannons, however these have been removed. ''Matsu''-class destroyer ''Keyaki'' retains her single forward 12.7cm/40 Type 89 mount, with the gun's barrel cut off; this is the same gun type fitted as twin mounts on the ''Takao''-class.
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One destroyers 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', and ''Keyaki'' on their way to the final battle. In addition to her guns, ''Yuukaze'' also lost her torpedo launchers.]]

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III''''' is the twentieth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed primarily by Sledgehammer Games instead of Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is the third installment of the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' reboot subseries started in 2019 and a back-to-back sequel of 2022's ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]''. It was officially released on November 10, 2023, though preorders allowed the game's campaign to be played early a week before.

All the firearms from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]'' are included in the game across multiplayer, as well as many of them being available in other game modes, so only the '''new weapons''' will be covered on this page.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III}}

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=

==Beretta 92FS==
A [[Beretta 92FS]] with a fictional MIL-STD 1913 rail similar to the one found on recent [[Taurus PT92]] variants appears as the "Renetti". Unlike ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s Renetti, the safety is now correctly on the slide. It's not a [[Beretta M9A1]] or [[Beretta 92A1]] as the trigger guard shape doesn't resemble the one on either variant. It fires in three-round burst by default, indicating that it's standing in for a [[Beretta 93R]], especially given that it was originally referred to as the "Raffica" in the game's pre-alpha. Other external differences from the real Beretta include a less pronounced beavertail, a differently-shaped magazine release button, and a longer barrel.

[[File:Taurus 92 1-920151-17 04.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Taurus PT92AF with rail - 9x19mm Parabellum. The gun in the game has a frame that very closely resemble the PT92's, although the Renetti has more rail slots.]]

===CAA RONI===
Using the "JAK Ferocity Carbine Kit" places the Beretta into a [[CAA RONI]] carbine conversion kit, converts it to full-auto, and allows underbarrel, optical sight and stock modification.

[[File:CAA Roni Beretta 92F.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS mounted in CAA RONI-G1 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:MWIII-JAKFerocity.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "JAK Ferocity Carbine" conversion. The textures on the carbine kit seem to imply that it's 3D-printed; printable pistol carbine conversion kits do exist (with the Middleton Made Hot Pocket being a notable example of one that doesn't include the pistol's frame as part of the print), though the in-game kit is effectively just a stylized, printed RONI, complete with a printed foregrip.]]

[[File:MWIII RONI 08 reload5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|About to release the slide on empty for the "Fast Hands" reload. One has to wonder how flipping the carbine over is faster than simply keeping it level.]]

==Glock 21C==
The [[Glock 21]] appears under the name "COR-45". This time, it is the 21C variant with compensator cuts, and is full black. It is also a hybrid of the 3rd and 5th generation models, as it has the former's guide rod, square slide edges and non-ambidextrous slide stop, combined with a lack of finger grooves and an enlarged magazine release similar to the latter, as well as being MOS-configured. Differences from the real model also include a differently shaped trigger guard, a flat face skeletonized trigger and a MIL-STD 1913 rail with three slots. It can be assumed it will share the same base platform as the X12 and X13 in 9mm, as they are both based on Glock pistols and their grip areas are almost identical, however the markings and the name suggest it's manufactured by Corvus and not XRK. The logic of who manufactures what in the rebooted ''Modern Warfare'' trilogy is beyond anyone's comprehension. It holds 14 rounds by default (one more than the real one).

During the beta, the model lacked a slide stop lever, but this was fixed in the final release.

The "XRK Pyre-9 Heavy Long Barrel" gives the gun a long slide, with a length between the [[Glock 40]] and [[Glock 41]] (closer to the former), depicted with front serrations.

[[File:MWIII G40 3rdc.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Operator Izzy with the Glock. The sights are incorrectly in the spot they were on the standard slide, instead of moved to the front of the slide. Note the threaded barrel.]]
[[File:Mw2023 glock (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|After an inconvenient misunderstanding about ordering breakfast during lunch hours, König reloads his custom Glock. The slide stop is not engaged, and the laser is emitting from a spot in mid-air rather than the laser module.]]

===Glock 21C (in carbine conversion kit)===
Using the "XRK IP-V2 Conversion Barrel" places the COR-45 inside a carbine conversion kit. The kit partially resembles the carbine kit used in ''MWII'', but without the AR style T-handle and stock. This aftermarket conversion allows the weapon to be modified with scopes and underbarrel rail attachments, along with a binary trigger that in gameplay terms works like the real counterpart, effectively firing the gun when pulling and releasing the trigger. When attaching the "XTEN TX-12 Handstop", the front of the grip extends past the barrel, and in reality would be very unsafe if you wanted to keep your fingers intact.

[[File:MWIII RONIG 07 reload3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The operator using her thumb to release the slide during the "Fast Hands" reload.]]

==RSh-12==
A stylized [[RSh-12]], mostly based on the 2014 model, appears as the "TYR", the name referencing the god of war in Norse mythology; this is presumably meant to connect it to ''MW19''’s [[ASh-12.7]], known as the "Oden" (an alternate spelling of "Wōden", the Old English spelling of the name "Odin"). Several of its attachments make reference to various Nordic Gods as well. The in-game model is heavily stylized, with a significantly smaller cylinder possessing flutes and a strange frontal taper, a barrel with no vent holes, a differently-shaped trigger guard housing an also-reshaped trigger (which sits much further back than the real weapon's), an oddly-straight grip with almost no beavertail, a Colt-type pull-back cylinder release instead of the actual weapon's push-forward release, and a safety based on the 2021 model, alongside numerous smaller changes. The bullets all have their primers struck, regardless of if the bullets have actually been fired.

[[File:RSh-12.jpg|thumb|none|350px|RSh-12, 2014 model - 12.7x55mm]]
[[File:RSh12-2.jpg|thumb|none|350px|RSh-12, 2021 model, with folding foregrip - 12.7x55mm. This version does have flutes on the cylinder, albeit different from the in-game model.]]

[[File:MWIII RSH12 03 inspect.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Manually cycling the revolver during the inspect animation. The operator then checks the cylinder (and finds that all the primers have been struck).]]
[[File:MWIII RSH12 04 reload1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Removing a single spent case after firing one round. The RSh-12 uses similar animations to the S&W Model 500 from the previous game.]]

[[File:MWIII RSH12 07 reload4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and loading some new 12.7x55mm with the aid of a speedloader. The operator, as expected, dramatically swings the cylinder shut after.]]

===MTs-569===
Using the "ZIU-16 Heavy Long Barrel" and the "ZLR Strelk Stock" converts the weapon into an approximation of the MTs-569 revolver carbine.

[[File:MTs-569.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MTs-569 with angled foregrip, red-dot sight, and speedloader - 12.7x55mm]]
[[File:MWIII MTS569.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "TYR" with said modifications.]]

[[File:MWIII MTS569 04 reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Finally, pushing the cylinder shut. This animation is also used when first equipping the revolver.]]
[[File:MWIII MTS569 05 inspect.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Nikto decides to become the STALKER Gunslinger. Note that doing this would probably break his index fingers.]]

==Beretta PMX==
The [[Beretta PMX]] will be added in Mid-Season 1 as the "HRM-9".
[[File:Beretta pmx-smg-1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Beretta PMX - 9x19mm]]

==Custom 9mm AR-15==
A custom 9mm AR-15 with the same [[SIG 516]]/SIG M400-based receiver as ''Modern Warfare II''’s [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#"M4"|"M4"]] appears as the "AMR9", which is coincidentally the same name as the five-round burst AR platform weapon (also classified as an SMG) from ''[[Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare|Advanced Warfare]]''. By default, it features a dimpled barrel (roughly 10"), a solid M16-style stock, and a handguard with a strange lower extension, housing a tube into which lights and lasers are mounted (despite the handguard having side rails); all of the alternate barrel options extend the same distance downwards, likely to keep the foregrip positions and handling animations consistent.

The weapon's file name IDs it as the [[Colt 9mm Submachine Gun|Model 635]] (fixed carry handle, slim handguards, 4-position stock from the [[Colt Model 653|Model 653]]), while the presence of a flattop upper would make it closer to the Model 991 (removable carry handle, KAC rail system, 6-position stock from the [[M4A1]]).

[[File:Colt R0991.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt 9mm SMG (aka Colt R0991) with RIS handguard and folding rear sight, for comparison - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:516-CQB rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SIG-Sauer SIG516 Carbine with 10" barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:MWIII-AMR9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "AMR9" in an official render. Note the strange handguard; the fact that it protrudes this far down would prevent the upper receiver from being pivoted open, while the extension that goes behind the front receiver pin would prevent it from being lifted straight off, meaning that the gun couldn't be field-stripped without removing the handguard. The tube inside this odd lower extension is always there, and does nothing unless a laser or light is equipped.]]

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1==
The [[CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1]] appears, using nearly the same model as the stylized ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' counterpart. The campaign premiere for "Operation 627" referred to it by its real name, "Scorpion Evo 3", however it has been changed to "Rival-9" which is then retained in the final game.

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
A stylized [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] appears as the "Striker". It reuses the model of the "Undertaker" blueprint from ''MW19'' (which visually changed that game's [[LWRC SMG-45]] into a UMP45), though rather bizarrely the magazine has been remodeled to be too short. The ''MW19'' version featured a correct-length magazine correctly holding 25 rounds, while the ''MWIII'' iteration features a too-short magazine (roughly 20) that somehow holds 30 rounds. A 48-round mag is also available, this one also being too short to fit that amount of .45 ACP rounds.

==IMI Uzi==
The [[IMI Uzi]] appears as the "WSP-9". It is depicted with a bent trigger guard from the Micro Uzi / Uzi Pistol.

==IWI Uzi Pro==
The [[IWI Uzi Pro]] appears as the "WSP Swarm". Although it is select-fire, it is visually based on the pistol variant. By default, it is fitted with a stylized A3 Tactical modular folding stock. It can be equipped with a stabilizing brace, allowing it to be dual-wielded. When equipping lasers/lights, the game places them on the groves on the receiver, despite there being no mounting point or rail.

==LWRC SMG-45 (9mm conversion)==
A 9x19mm conversion of the [[LWRC SMG-45]] appears as the "Striker 9". Said conversion was planned for the real weapon, but has not been released so far. Interestingly enough, the weapon is stated to be manufactured by Lachmann & Meer, the in-universe analogue to Heckler & Koch. Perhaps the weapon was originally intended to be a [[Heckler & Koch UMP|Heckler & Koch UMP9]] but was changed during production.

=Shotguns=

==Fostech Origin-12==
The [[Fostech Origin-12]] appears as the "Haymaker" (which is coincidentally named as the similarly functioning shotgun in ''[[BO3]]''). A customized version of the Origin-12 appears as the "Recon Haymaker", used by the Support Juggernaut.

==Remington 870==
The "Lockwood 680" is a stylized tactical [[Remington 870]] pump-action shotgun, similar to the "Model 680" from ''MW19''. The model in-game uses a standard synthetic non-pistol grip stock by default, and can be modified with an MCS-esque pistol grip stock combination by equipping the "FTAC Goliath XM250 Heavy Stock".

=="Riveter"==
A .410-gauge automatic shotgun possibly based on the ATI Omni .410 (an AR-15-styled shotgun) is available as the "Riveter". It has a 15-round magazine with plastic windows and fires in full-auto. As with many weapons in the "M4 Platform ", most of the animations are shared with the "M4" from ''Modern Warfare II''. Much like the RONI-G1 Glock 21, when pairing the "Bruen Heavy Support Grip" with the "Kilo Short Barrel", the grip exceeds the muzzle of the weapon (although thankfully in this case the grip is mostly enclosed).

=Rifles=

==AN-94/AK-74M hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[AN-94]]'s barrel and forend with an [[AK-74M]]/[[AK-100 series]] receiver appears as the "SVA 545". The rifle also features an unusual gap between the trigger guard and magazine release, similar to the [[Type 81]]. It's modeled with a Zenitco PT-1 stock, uncanted magazine well, railed handguard and full top rails. The in-game model also comes with the side rail mount that is never used due to the top rails. The barrel assembly resembles a [https://www.reddit.com/r/ModernWarfareIII/comments/17kkn9g/btw_the_sva545_is_not_simply_a_cursed_an94it_is/ conceptual 6x49mm rifle photoshopped by an internet forum user]. Despite this odd combination of visual elements, in gameplay terms the rifle is intended to be an AN-94, featuring its two-round hyperburst at the beginning of every trigger pull. As of Season 1, the hyperburst fire mode is incorrectly listed as "semi-auto" mode, and removing the stock still uses the impossible "Iraqi reload" technique ala the previous game's [[AKS-74U|AKS-74UN]], instead of using a unique reload animation that was aadded during Season 2 of ''MWII''. The animations for the rifle are all shared with the AK-105 from ''MWII''.

==Bushmaster ACR==
A [[Bushmaster ACR]] with tan furniture appears in-game as the "MCW". The weapon can be converted to fire .300 AAC Blackout ammunition by using the "JAK Raven Kit".

Said upper receiver also appears to be made of (or textured to look like) carbon fiber.]]

==Bushmaster ACR (.450 Bushmaster)==
The .450 Bushmaster variant of the [[Bushmaster ACR|ACR]] is available as the "Sidewinder". In the campaign's early access, its caliber was incorrectly labeled as .458 SOCOM; this has been changed to ".450 Huntsman" in the final release. Similarly to the "FTac Recon" introduced in ''MWII'', it is classified as a battle rifle, despite .450 Bushmaster being more of an oversized intermediate cartridge.

==Bushmaster ACR DMR==
A [[Bushmaster ACR|Bushmaster ACR DMR]] with black furniture appears as the "MCW 6.8". The beta version was fictionally stated to be chambered in 6.8x51mm; this was changed for the final release to "6.8 Wrath", which is the in-universe version of the cartridge that the [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277|General Dynamics RM277]]-based rifle fires.

Being in the marksman rifle class, it fires in semi-auto only mode by default, but a has full-auto conversion available (which gives the rifle the stock of the standard ACR). In both cases, the fire selector is set to full-auto.

==CZ 805 BREN A2==
The [[CZ 805 BREN A2]] appears as the "MTZ-556". It has a fictional gas plug by default, but most barrel attachments (notably the "MTZ Natter Barrel" with a similar length to the base weapon) give it a correct CZ 805's gas plug. The "MTZ Skeletal Folding Stock" attachment is reminiscent of the early stock of the 1st gen CZ 805.
If the player has a "Mag Holster" equipped in his gear slot, the operator will thumb the bolt hold-open button to release the bolt on an empty reload, something not possible on the real rifle. Aftermarket bolt releases have been made for the civilian S1 version, however.

Curiously, it is the weapon seen being distributed to the operators in the multiplayer insertion cutscenes, although, eventually it magically turns into the actual weapon of player's choice.

==CZ BREN 2 BR==
The [[CZ BREN 2|CZ BREN 2 BR]] in 7.62x51mm NATO appears in the battle rifle class as the "MTZ-762". It is incorrectly depicted with a reciprocating charging handle and without the trigger guard bolt hold-open device.

==CZ BREN 2 DMR==
A [[CZ BREN 2]] in a DMR configuration intended to pass for a BREN 2 PPS appears as the "MTZ Interceptor". By default, it has a short barrel, a stylized Magpul PRS stock and a pistol grip with palm shelf, but can be modified with a longer barrel and a standard BREN 2 BR/PPS stock and pistol grip.

==FAMAS F1==
The [[FAMAS F1]] appears as the "FR 5.56", returning from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', this time without its fictional gas block. As with many FAMAS iterations in ''Call of Duty'', it primarily fires in bursts. Unlike in ''MW2019'', the rifle is incorrectly loaded with brass-cased rounds for most of its ammo types, including the default ammunition. It should be loaded with steel-cased rounds, as brass rounds were notorious for causing malfunctions. The only steel-cased rounds in-game that it can use are the Armor Piercing rounds. It correctly holds 25 rounds this time, like its Valorisé counterpart from ''MWII''.

==FN SCAR-H (modified)==
An [[FN SCAR-H]] set up to pass for an [[FN HAMR IAR]], probably alluding to the NGSW variant chambered in 6.8mm, appears in the light machine gun class as the "TAQ Eradicator". Visually, it's a slightly modified version of the SCAR-H from the previous game, with an extended handguard with two side-protruding sling loops to hint at its unique firing mechanism. Like its ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' depiction, the weapon has a variable fire rate not unlike that of the AN-94; the first few shots in full-auto are fired at 837 RPM, and the rest are fired at a much lower (and so far unstated) RPM, apparently to imitate the real HAMR's transition to open bolt firing when the weapon is heated, though this does beg the question of how the weapon manages to not only heat up to unsafe levels within a few (and consistent) rounds, but also dissipate this heat instantaneously upon the cessation of fire, nevermind the fact that switching the same weapon from open-bolt to closed-bolt operation wouldn't likely cause such a drastic change in fire rate.

Also just like the previous time the HAMR (or an imitation of it) showed up in a major ''Call of Duty'' title, it is fed by an X-Products X-25 50-round drum overloaded to 75 rounds (with the magazine being the same model as the drum mag of the "TAQ-V"). Other magazine options include a 30-round Molon Labe magazine overloaded to 45 rounds and a 100-round dual drum magazine holding 150 rounds (and modeled after the ArmaTac Industries SAW-MAG 150-round dual drum magazine for ''5.56x45mm NATO''). Most animations are shared between the different "Tactique Verte" weapon family variants.

==Heckler & Koch G36==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36]] resembling the stylized ''MW19'' counterpart appears in the assault rifle class as the "Holger 556‎". Like in the original ''[[Modern Warfare 3]]'', the assault rifle and machine gun variants of the G36 are available.

===Heckler & Koch G36C===
The Holger 556 can be converted into a [[Heckler & Koch G36C]].

==Heckler & Koch G36K==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36K]] with a G36C carry handle appears in the light machine gun class as the "Holger 26", using a 60-round single drum magazine by default. The G36C carry handle is taller than the real version, a middle ground between it and the integrated optics carry handle. It can equip several full-length G36 barrel options (one of which has an integrated bipod), a 100-round double drum or 40-round magazine (no smaller, likely so as to not overlap in role with the assault rifle class version), as well as a stylized depiction of the G36's integrated carry handle optic.

[[File:MWIII-Holger26.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Holger 26" in an official image.]]

===Heckler & Koch MG36===
Equipping the above G36K with the SL8 barrel, approximate muzzle device, bipod, integrated optic, and 100-round drum makes for an approximation of a true [[MG36]] build. Due to the limit of five attachment slots, the cheek riser stock cannot be replaced with the standard stock if one is using the other attachments.

==QBZ-97==
A [[QBZ-97]] with a slightly stylized T97.ca LHG and FTU appears as the "DG-56" (originally "DG-58", but renamed following the release of Season 1). Like its counterpart from the original ''[[Modern Warfare 3]]'', the weapon fires in three-round bursts, something only possible on the QBZ-97A variant.

Price inexplicably starts with a "DG-56" in the "Countdown" section of the mission "Trojan Horse". Unless the weapon is likely standing in for an SA80 variant or by the off-chance that he stole it from one of the Konni Group members, the chances of a weapon of Chinese origin being used by TF141 or the SFO in the United Kingdom are next to null.

===QBZ-97B / QBZ-95B-1 hybrid===
Attaching the "DG-58 Micro Barrel" barrel attachment turns the weapon into a QBZ-97B style carbine (much like the JAK conversion QBZ-95B below). The carbine features the selector and pistol grip (which is just the base grip of the 97) of the [[QBZ-95B|QBZ-95B-1]], the muzzle device, caliber and magazine/magazine well of the [[QBZ-97B]], with the top rail carry handle somewhat resembling the carry handle of the [[QCQ-05]]. The iron sights even more so resemble the aforementioned ACP PEAK upper.

==SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR==
A stylized [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] appears in the battle rifle class as the "BAS-B". It is fitted with the same stylized Magpul MBUS used on the RM277 from ''Modern Warfare II''. It was stated in the beta loadout menu to chamber the real life ".277 Fury" instead of the aforementioned "6.8 Wrath"; it has been changed to simply ".277" in the final game. Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]'', the weapon is depicted without its custom-designed SIG SLX suppressor by default but it is available as the "Bruen Harmonic Suppressor L".

=Sniper Rifles=
==Bolt-action AK==
A bolt-action [[AK]] rifle appears as the "Longbow", fitted with a 30-round magazine. It is classified as a sniper rifle in-game, and as a result, it is the most mobile and has the highest round capacity of all the sniper rifles available in its class. While bizarre as a weapon choice in a military setting, the Armenian K11 rifle (the K11M more specifically designed for special forces) or the Ukrainian GOPAK are some of the AK-like rifles known to use the bolt-action system in real life, similar to how the "Longbow" functions in-game. The "Pro-99 Long Barrel" gives the rifle a similar barrel to the K11M (albeit with a railed handguard and no iron sights), while the "Tac-Brute Suppressed Barrel" gives the rifle an integrated suppressor, similar in idea to the GOPAK.

[[File:MWIII-Longbow.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Longbow" in an official image. The barrel is relocated to where an AK's gas system would be, which raises the question of how it still manages to feed rounds from regular AK magazines that seat below the new turnbolt chamber.]]

==Cadex Defence CDX-50 TREMOR==
The [[Cadex Defence CDX-50 TREMOR]] was added in Season 1 as the "XRK Stalker".

==Chukavin SVCh-8.6==
The [[Chukavin SVCh|Chukavin SVCh-8.6]] appears in the sniper rifle class as the "KV Inhibitor". It is fitted by default with a shorter barrel like SVCh variants of other calibers, while the "Kas-Dworf Heavy Long Barrel" attachment approximates the real SVCh-8.6's barrel length.

==Steyr HS .50-M1==
The [[Steyr HS .50|Steyr HS .50-M1]] appears as the "KATT-AMR". The default scope uses the iconic scope_overlay_m40a3 reticle.

==FN EVOLYS==
A stylized [[FN EVOLYS]] is scheduled to be added in Mid-Season 1 as the "TAQ Evolvere".
[[File:FN EVOLYS 7.62.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN EVOLYS 7.62 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==FN Minimi==
The [[FN Minimi]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', once again called the "Bruen Mk9". Despite the unchanged name, the weapon is now stated to be manufactured by Tactique Verte, the in-universe analogue to FN Herstal, as inscribed on the right side of the feed tray cover. By default the pistol grip has stippled grip tape, but it can be removed with the "Stippled Grip Cover" attachment, which apparently covers the tape, even though it just removes the modification.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears as the "Pulemyot 762", with ''Pulemyot'' being Russian for ''machine gun''. It is depicted with a disintegrating belt (which does exist, though it's made out of polymer by Ukraine), unlike the PKM in ''MW2019'' (although that version incorrectly depicted the whole belt as non disintegrating, instead of breaking in sections of 25). It also features a [[PKM]]'s wooden stock, a few Picatinny rails (one on the top cover for optics, one on the gas tube for foregrips, and a few just ahead of that for lights/lasers/etc.), and a fair few stylistic fictionalizations throughout (e.g. the trigger guard, the front sight, the dust covers, et cetera). The rate of fire is also ridiculously too slow at around 500 RPM as real life models tend to fire at around 800 RPM cyclic rate.

Just like with ''MW2019'', the loading procedure is incorrect. In this game, the operator racks the charging handle back at the beginning of the procedure before opening the top cover and slotting a new belt into the feed tray, but unlike Western designs such as the M240, M60, or FN Minimi, the bolt does not push cartridges through the belt links - owing to the fact that the 7.62x54mmR cartridge's rim gets in the way. Instead, the PK family of machine guns pulls cartridges backwards out of the belt, which necessitates that the operator rack the charging handle only once at the end of the loading process. The animations in this game would realistically result in the bolt dropping without firing and the operator having to rack the bolt back once more.

[[File:MWIII PKP Zenit.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A customized Pecheneg in-game. The pictured "Ivanov Bluff Heavy Stock" gives the machine gun a stylized version of the 6P41 stock, while another option called the "Stovl Conqueror-V Stock" gives the weapon a stylized 6P69 stock (although unlike the real stock, this one doesn't have any hinges for folding). The "Reckoning-8 Heavy Barrel" gives the weapon a fictionalized Zenit B-50 handguard (though the top rail isn't used), while also giving it an approximation PKP flash hider and returning the protective wings for the front sight. The "Pulemyot Bipod", which is unique to the two PKP variants, gives the weapon a fictionalized bipod, which seems to be attached by a pin that goes through the gas tube. Using the "200-Round Belt" replaces the fictional cloth box magazine (or cloth holder) with an approximation of the real PK box magazine, although it appears to be much wider.]]
[[File:MWIII PKP 01 idle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The PKP. Note the machine gun features the 6P41N dovetail mounting, however, for some reason the lower part of the mounting isn't attached to the cover latch and is instead attached to the ejection port cover.

===PKP Pecheneg Bullpup===
The weapon can be converted into a [[PKP Pecheneg Bullpup]] with the "JAK Annihilator Bullpup Kit". The reload animations are actually correct for a PK series machine gun in this conversion, as like with the "Fast Hands" reload, the operator now racks the bolt at the end of the process instead of in the beginning.

[[File:MWIII-JAKAnnihilator.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "JAK Annihilator" bullpup conversion of the "Pulemyot 762". As with several other "JAK" conversions, it features carbon-fiber and 3D-printed parts, in this case the feed tray cover and receiver respectively. Precisely why isn't clear, given that the entire point of the Zenit/ZiD bullpup PKP kits is to re-use the barreled receiver of the original PKP and only change out a few parts; in fact, with the barrel, the gas tube, and even the carrying handle having been swapped out, it's not really clear what part of this is still the original PKP. Regardless, such a receiver has no real-world equivalent; the closest thing would be the Plastikov printed AK receiver (with the PK and AK being somewhat similar both in mechanics and in manufacture techniques), though this is still significantly bulkier than its stamped-steel equivalent.]]

==QJB-95-1==
The [[QJB-95-1]] appears as the "DG-58 LSW". Much like many other contemporary depictions of weapons in the franchise, it has several fictionalized stylized elements, such as the alternate front sight and placement of the fire selector. When equipping a bipod, third party rail mounted ones are used instead of the actual barrel attached QJB bipod.

===QBZ-95B-1 / QBZ-97B hybrid===
The carbon-fiber/3D-printed "JAK Nightshade Rifle Kit" converts the weapon into a QBZ-95B style carbine. This conversion is actually a hybrid, as it has a [[QBZ-95B|QBZ-95B-1]]'s 5.8x42mm chambering and fire selector above the pistol grip (like the base QJB-95-1), but with a [[QBZ-97B]]'s deeper magwell, as well as the muzzle device, front sight position, trigger guard, and buttstock shape of the QBZ-97B / QBZ-95B.

=Launchers=
=="Burrow 500"==
A fictional, stylized sliding breech underbarrel grenade launcher appears as the "Burrow 500". It appears to be based on the [[M203]] grenade launcher, as noted by the sliding breech mechanism and M203-like stylized trigger group and latch. It also borrows some aesthetic design elements from the [[FN40GL]], most notably the fore. The launcher has a tri-rail on the forend which is never used. One has to wonder if they could have designed a 40x103mm round for the "Drill Charge" and reused the GP-25 like for the other AK family weapons.

'''''Godzilla Minus One''''' (Japanese: ゴジラ-1.0; '''''Gojira Mainasu Wan''''') is the 2023 installment of Toho's long-running [[Godzilla_(disambiguation)|''Godzilla'' franchise]], written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki. It is the 37th film in the franchise and the the 33rd film by Toho.

In 1947, Japan is still recovering from the devastation of the Second World War. Navy veteran Kōichi Shikishima (Ryunosuke Kamiki) tries to rebuild his life and move on from his experiences during the war, when Japan is beset by a new crisis: a massive, mutated creature known as Godzilla that is wrecking havoc at sea, and has set its sights on mainland Japan.

=Rifles=
==Arisaka Type 99 ==
The maintenance personnel on Odo Island attempt to defend themselves against Godzilla with [[Arisaka Type 99]]s, which prove completely ineffective.

=Machine Guns=
==Type 93 heavy machine gun==
The minesweeper ''Shinsei Maru'' is equipped with a single [[Type 93 heavy machine gun]], used to detonate mines once they're brought to the surface. Their fellow minesweeping ship ''Kaishin Maru'' is also armed with a single Type 93, as is a boat of similar size seen later in the film. The weapon is correctly referred to as being 13mm in dialogue.

[[Image:Godzilla Minus One MG2.jpeg|thumb|600px|none|Shikishima opens up on Godzilla.]]

==Type 97 aircraft machine gun==
The A6M Reisen fighter flown by Shikishima is armed with a pair of [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] above the engine.
[[File:Type 97.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Type 97 aircraft machine gun - 7.7x56mmR]]

==Type 97 tank machine gun==
Several Chi-To tanks are seen attempting to drive Godzilla out of Ginza. In addition to their Type 5 75mm main cannon, each tank is also equipped with a [[Type 97 tank machine gun]] in the hull. Like the Shinden, the Chi-To was developed very late in the war and intended for the defense of the home islands, but extremely few were produced.
[[File:Type 97 tank machine gun.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Type 97 tank machine gun - 7.7x58mm]]

=Cannons=
==20mm/70 Mark 4==
The damaged and adrift American merchantman is armed with several [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon]]s, designated 20mm/70 Mark 4 in US service; she also features a pair of deck guns, one each at the bow and stern.
[[Image:20mm Oerlikon Cannon.jpg|thumb|none|400px|20mm/70 Mark 4 - 20x110mmRB]]

An Oerlikon with a gun shield can be seen on the less damaged port side of the forward deck, with another two at the front and rear port corners of the bridge. Their three starboard equivalents have ceased to exist.]]

==Type 99 cannon==
The Zero is also armed with a pair of [[Type 99 cannon]]s in the wings. Tachibana urges Shikishima to get in his parked fighter and blast the monster with the cannons as it walks in front, however Shikishima, paralyzed with fear, is unable to open fire. The cannons are referred to by calibre in dialogue, with Tachibana noting that the 20mm cannons should be far more effective than their rifles.
[[image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|450px|Top: Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mmRB / Bottom: Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mmRB]]

==Type 5 cannon==
The J7W1 Shinden interceptor is armed with four Type 5 cannons in the nose; the upper two cannons are removed from the aircraft in preparation for the battle. The weapons are again referred to by calibre (30mm) in dialogue, as well as correctly noting their capacity of 60 rounds per gun. The J7W was an experimental defense fighter which first flew only days before the atomic bombs were dropped. Only two were built in reality (with one preserved today) though in this universe it's implied that a small handful were produced before war's end, retained for defense of the home islands. A full-scale replica Shinden was built for the film, its high detail extending to the cockpit as well as internal components such as the engine and cannons. This replica now lives at the Tachiarai Peace Memorial Museum.

==12.7cm/40 Type 89==
In addition to her primary armament of ten 20cm/50 3rd Year Type No.2 cannons (actually 20.3cm) in five twin turrets, heavy cruiser ''Takao'' features four twin [[Type 89 naval gun|12.7cm/40 Type 89 cannons]] for long range anti-air work.
[[File:Type89navalgun.jpg|thumb|none|350px|12.7cm/40 Type 89 twin mount - 127x580mmR]]

[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 89 naval gun 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|The cruiser's main guns fire, illuminating the ship. Two of her twin Type 96 mounts can be seen as well, on the platforms either side of the bridge superstructure.]]

==Type 96 cannon==
In terms of lighter AA, ''Takao'' also mounts several twin [[Type 96 cannon]]s. ''Takao'' is noted as returning from Singapore, given back to Japan as a means of defending against Godzilla, rather than being scuttled (as historically happened).
[[Image:Type 96 25mm twin.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Type 96 twin mount - 25x163mm]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 96 cannon 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Godzilla attacks the ship's bridge, giving a good view of one of the Type 96 twin mounts, its barrels visible just to the left of the funnel smoke.]]

=Other=
==Disarmed Destroyers==
The ships which appear in the film, notably ''Takao'' and the four destroyers previously mentioned (''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', ''Keyaki'') were all among the very few IJN ships to survive the war, thus their appearances are very much appropriate. The destroyers were disarmed after the war, with their lighter mounts removed and their main armament either removed or simply left in place with the barrels cut off. As a portion of the guns remain present, even if no longer functional, they'll all be noted together in one entry. All of these destroyers were previously armed with varying numbers of Type 96 cannons and/or Type 93 machine guns, though all have been completely removed.

''Kagerou''-class destroyer ''Yukikaze'' retains her forward turret, its two 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons left in place with the barrels cut off at the forward edge of the turret. ''Akatsuki''-class destroyer ''Hibiki'' also retains her turrets, originally armed with the same guns, though it appears hers were removed entirely. ''Minekaze''-class destroyer ''Yuukaze'' was armed with four single 12cm/45 3rd Year Type cannons, however these have been removed. ''Matsu''-class destroyer ''Keyaki'' retains her single forward 12.7cm/40 Type 89 mount, with the gun's barrel cut off; this is the same gun type fitted as twin mounts on the ''Takao''-class.
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One destroyers 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', and ''Keyaki'' on their way to the final battle. In addition to her guns, ''Yuukaze'' also lost her torpedo launchers.]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One destroyers 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|A closer look at their forward turrets, showing the cut down barrels on ''Yukikaze'' and ''Keyaki'', the missing guns on ''Hibiki'', and complete absence of the mounts themselves on ''Yuukaze''.]]

'''Godzilla Minus One''' (Japanese: ゴジラ-1.0; '''''Gojira Mainasu Wan''''') is the 2023 installment of Toho's long-running [[Godzilla_(disambiguation)|Godzilla franchise]]. The film opens near the end of the Pacific War, as Navy pilot Kōichi Shikishima, sent on a kamikaze mission, feigns a mechanical issue and instead lands his Zero at a small maintenance airfield on Odo Island. While there, a large dinosaur-like monster emerges and kills all present except for Kōichi and the lead mechanic, Sōsaku Tachibana. After the war, Kōichi finds employment aboard the ''Shinsei Maru'', a small boat helping to clear the thousands of leftover American and Japanese sea mines. After Godzilla is inadvertently exposed to the Operation Crossroads nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll, massively increasing its size and giving it "atomic breath", the monster makes its way towards Japan, damaging and sinking several USN ships along the way.

In 1947, while investigating a wrecked American merchantman, the ''Shinsei Maru'' is attacked by Godzilla; the crew manages to detonate a mine in its mouth, but Godzilla regenerates. They are subsequently saved by the arrival of the heavy cruiser ''Takao''. Soon after, Godzilla makes landfall in the Ginza district of Tokyo, using its atomic breath in an attack that kills over 30,000 people. With effectively no military force of their own, and with the Americans unwilling to assist militarily due to tensions with the Soviets, any hope of defeating the monster is left to a volunteer group of former Navy personnel. The group is given use of four disarmed destroyers, as well as a Shinden interceptor, to be piloted by Shikishima. A plan is devised by ''Shinsei Maru'' crew member and former naval weapons researcher Kenji Noda, involving rapidly sinking Godzilla using freon gas, and should that fail, rapidly ascending it to the surface with balloons to induce explosive decompression... which will hopefully be enough to kill it.

__TOC__ 

==Type 93 heavy machine gun==
The ''Shinsei Maru'' is equipped with a single [[Type 93 heavy machine gun]], used to detonate mines once they're brought to the surface. Their fellow minesweeping ship is similarly armed with a single Type 93. The weapon is correctly referred to as being 13mm in dialogue.

==Type 99 Arisaka==
The maintenance personnel on Odo Island attempt to defend themselves against Godzilla with [[Arisaka Rifle|Arisaka rifles]], which prove completely ineffective.
[[File:Arisaka-Type-99.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Type 99 Arisaka - 7.7x58mm]]

==Type 97 aircraft machine gun==
The A6M Reisen fighter flown by Shikishima is armed with a pair of [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] above the engine.
[[File:Type 97.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Type 97 aircraft machine gun - 7.7x56mmR]]

==Type 99 cannon==
The Zero is also armed with a pair of [[Type 99 cannon]]s in the wings. Tachibana urges Shikishima to get in his parked fighter and blast the monster with the cannons as it walks in front, however Shikishima, paralyzed with fear, is unable to open fire. The cannons are referred to by calibre in dialogue, with Tachibana noting that the 20mm cannons should be far more effective than their rifles.
[[image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|350px|Top: Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mmRB / Bottom: Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mmRB]]

==Type 5 cannon==
The J7W1 Shinden interceptor is armed with four Type 5 cannons in the nose; the upper two cannons are removed from the aircraft in preparation for the battle. The weapons are again referred to by calibre (30mm) in dialogue, as well as correctly noting their capacity of 60 rounds per gun. The J7W was an experimental defence fighter which first flew only days before the atomic bombs were dropped. Only two were built in reality (with one preserved today) though in this universe it's implied that a small handful were produced before war's end, retained for defence of the home islands. A full-scale replica Shinden was built for the film, its high detail extending to the cockpit as well as internal components such as the engine and cannons. This replica now lives at the Tachiarai Peace Memorial Museum.

==Type 97 tank machine gun==
Several Chi-To tanks are seen attempting to drive Godzilla out of Ginza. In addition to their Type 5 75mm main cannon, each tank is also equipped with a [[Type 97 tank machine gun]] in the hull. Like the Shinden, the Chi-To was developed very late in the war and intended for the defence of the home islands, but extremely few were produced.

[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 97 TMG 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|One of the tanks fires its Type 5 main gun, casting some fantastic light and shadow.]]

==12.7cm/40 Type 89==
In addition to her primary armament of ten 20cm/50 3rd Year Type No.2 cannons (actually 20.3cm) in five twin turrets, heavy cruiser ''Takao'' features four twin [[Type 89 naval gun|12.7cm/40 Type 89 cannons]] for long range anti-air work.

[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 89 naval gun 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|The cruiser's main guns fire, illuminating the ship. Two of her twin Type 96 mounts can be seen as well, on the platforms either side of the bridge superstructure.]]

==Type 96 cannon==
In terms of lighter AA, ''Takao'' also mounts several twin [[Type 96 cannon]]s. ''Takao'' is noted as returning from Singapore, given back to Japan as a means of defending against Godzilla, rather than being scuttled (as historically happened).
[[Image:Type 96 25mm twin.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Type 96 twin mount - 25x163mm]]
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One Type 96 cannon 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Godzilla attacks the ship's bridge, giving a good view of one of the Type 96 twin mounts, its barrels visible just to the left of the funnel smoke.]]

==Disarmed destroyers==
The ships which appear in the film, notably ''Takao'' and the four destroyers previously mentioned (''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', ''Keyaki'') were all among the very few IJN ships to survive the war, thus their appearances are very much appropriate. The destroyers were disarmed after the war, with their lighter mounts removed and their main armament either removed or simply left in place with the barrels cut off. As a portion of the guns remain present, even if no longer functional, they'll all be noted together in one entry. All of these destroyers were previously armed with varying numbers of Type 96 cannons and/or Type 93 machine guns, though all have been completely removed.

''Kagerou''-class destroyer ''Yukikaze'' retains her forward turret, its two 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons left in place with the barrels cut off at the forward edge of the turret. ''Fubuki''-class destroyer ''Hibiki'' also retains her turrets, originally armed with the same guns, though it appears hers were removed entirely. ''Minekaze''-class destroyer ''Yuukaze'' was armed with four single 12cm/45 3rd Year Type cannons, however these have been removed. ''Matsu''-class destroyer ''Keyaki'' retains her single forward 12.7cm/40 Type 89 mount, with the gun's barrel cut off; this is the same gun type fitted as twin mounts on the ''Takao''-class.
[[Image:Godzilla Minus One destroyers 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|''Yukikaze'', ''Hibiki'', ''Yuukaze'', and ''Keyaki'' on their way to the final battle. In addition to her guns, ''Yuukaze'' also lost her torpedo launchers.]]

==20mm/70 Mark 4==
The damaged and adrift American merchantman is armed with several [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon|Oerlikon 20mm cannons]], designated 20mm/70 Mark 4 in US service; she also features a pair of deck guns, one each at the bow and stern.

An Oerlikon with a gun shield can be seen on the less damaged port side of the forward deck, with another two at the front and rear port corners of the bridge.

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III''''' is the twentieth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed primarily by Sledgehammer Games instead of Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is the third installment of the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' reboot subseries started in 2019 and a back-to-back sequel of 2022's ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]''. It will be officially released on November 10, 2023, though preorders allow the game's campaign to be played early a week before.

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=

==Beretta 92FS==
A [[Beretta 92FS]] with a fictional MIL-STD 1913 rail similar to the one found on recent [[Taurus PT92]] variants appears as the "Renetti". Unlike ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s Renetti, the safety is now correctly on the slide. It's not a [[Beretta M9A1]] or [[Beretta 92A1]] as the trigger guard shape doesn't resemble the one on either variant. It fires in three-round burst by default. Other external differences from the real one include a less pronounced beaver tail, a hinged trigger, a differently shaped magazine release button and a longer barrel.

[[File:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Taurus 92 1-920151-17 04.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Taurus PT92AF with rail. The gun in the game has a frame that very closely resemble the PT92's, although the Renetti has more rail slots.]]

===CAA RONI===
Using the "JAK Ferocity Carbine Kit" places the Beretta into a [[CAA RONI]] carbine conversion kit, and converts it to full-auto.

[[File:CAA Roni Beretta 92F.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS mounted in CAA RONI-G1 - 9x19mm]]

==Glock 21C==
The [[Glock 21]] appears under the name "COR-45". This time, it is the 21C variant with compensator cuts, and is full black. It is also a hybrid of the 3rd and 5th generation models, as it has the former's guide rod, square slide edges and non-ambidextrous slide stop (in fact, it lacks one), combined with a lack of finger grooves and an enlarged magazine release similar to the latter. Differences from the real model also include a differently shaped trigger guard, a flat face skeletonized trigger and a MIL-STD 1913 rail with three slots. It can be assumed it will share the same base platform as the X12 and X13 in 9mm, as they are both based on Glock pistols and their grip areas are almost identical, however the markings and the name suggest it's manufactured by Corvus and not XRK. The logic of who manufactures what in the rebooted ''Modern Warfare'' trilogy is beyond anyone's comprehension.

The "XRK Pyre-9 Heavy Long Barrel" gives the gun a long slide resembling that of a [[Glock 40]], depicted with front serrations.

[[File:G21 Gen5 MOS FS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Glock 21 MOS FS (5th Generation) - .45 ACP]]

==RSh-12==
The [[RSh-12]] is seen in the multiplayer trailer.

[[File:RSh-12.jpg|thumb|none|350px|RSh-12 - 12.7x55mm]]

=Submachine Guns=

==Custom 9mm AR-15==
A custom 9mm AR-15 with the same [[SIG 516]]/SIG M400-based receiver as ''Modern Warfare II''’s [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#"M4"|"M4"]] appears as the "AMR9", which is coincidentally the same name as the five-round burst AR platform weapon (also classified as an SMG) from ''[[Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare|Advanced Warfare]]''. The weapon's file name IDs it as the [[Colt 9mm Submachine Gun|Model 635]] (fixed carry handle, slim handguards, 4-position stock from the [[Colt Model 653|Model 653]]), while the presence of a flattop upper would make it closer to the Model 991 (removable carry handle, KAC rail system, 6-position stock from the [[M4A1]]).

[[File:Colt R0991.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt 9mm SMG (aka Colt R0991) with RIS handguard and folding rear sight, for comparison - 9x19mm]]
[[File:516-CQB rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SIG-Sauer SIG516 Carbine with 10" barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1==
The [[CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1]] appears, using nearly the same model as the stylized ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' counterpart. The campaign premiere for "Operation 627" referred to it by its real name, "Scorpion Evo 3", however it has been changed to "Rival-9".

[[File:Evo 3 A1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 - 9x19mm]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
A stylized [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] appears as the "Striker". It reuses the model of the "Undertaker" blueprint from ''MW19'' (which visually changed that game's [[LWRC SMG-45]] into a UMP45), though rather bizarrely the magazine has been remodeled to be too short. The ''MW19'' version featured a correct-length magazine correctly holding 25 rounds, while the ''MWIII'' iteration features a too-short magazine (roughly 20) that somehow holds 30 rounds, and despite this the magazine is very clearly marked with a large "25".

[[File:UMP45 RIS.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch UMP45 with Picatinny rails - .45 ACP]]

==IMI Uzi==
The [[IMI Uzi]] is scheduled to appear as the "WSP-9".

[[File:Uzi-1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|IMI Uzi with buttstock extended - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Modernwarfare 3 2023 uzi rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|450px|The Uzi on the map Highrise.]]

==IMI Micro Uzi==
The [[IMI Micro Uzi]] appears in the handgun class as the "WSP Stinger".
[[File:MicroUziPistolStock.jpg|thumb|none|300px|IMI Micro Uzi - 9x19mm]]

==IWI Uzi Pro==
The [[IWI Uzi Pro]] appears as the "WSP Swarm". Although it is select-fire, it is visually based on the pistol variant. By default, it is fitted with an A3 Tactical modular folding stock. It can be equipped with a stabilizing brace, allowing it to be dual-wielded.

[[File:Uzi Pro Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|300px|IWI Uzi Pro Pistol - 9x19mm]]
[[File:UPP9SB.jpg|thumb|none|450px|IWI Uzi Pro Pistol with stabilizing brace - 9x19mm]]

==LWRC SMG-45 (9mm conversion)==
The unreleased 9x19mm conversion of the [[LWRC SMG-45]] is seen in the multiplayer trailer.
[[File:LWRC SMG-45 brace.jpg|thumb|none|450px|LWRC SMG-45 with stabilizing brace - .45 ACP]]

=Shotguns=

==Fostech Origin-12==
The [[Fostech Origin-12]] is set to appear as the "Haymaker" (which is coincidentally named as the similarly functioning shotgun in ''[[BO3]]''). A customized version of the Origin-12 is set to appear as the "Recon Haymaker", used by the Support Juggernaut.

[[File:Origin-12-short.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fostech Origin-12 with 9.75" barrel - 12 gauge]]
[[File:Modernwarfare 3 2023 origin-12 rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Origin-12 in a promotional image.]]

==Remington 870==
The "Lockwood 680" is a stylized tactical [[Remington 870]] pump-action shotgun, similar to the "Model 680" from ''MW19''. The model in-game uses a standard synthetic non-pistol grip stock by default, and can be modified with an MCS-esque pistol grip stock combination by equipping the "FTAC Goliath XM250 Heavy Stock".
[[File:Rem870mcs 14.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Remington Model 870 MCS Entry - 12 gauge]]

=="Riveter"==
A .410-gauge automatic shotgun possibly based on the ATI Omni .410 (an AR-15-styled shotgun) is available in the beta as the "Riveter". It has a 15-round magazine and fires in full-auto.
[[File:Omni410.jpg|thumb|none|450px|ATI Omni - .410 gauge]]

=Rifles=

==AN-94/AK-74M hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[AN-94]]'s barrel and forend with an [[AK-74M]]/[[AK-100 series]] receiver appears as the "SVA 545". The rifle also features an unusual gap between the trigger guard and magazine release, similar to the [[Type 81]]. It's modeled with a Zenitco PT-1 stock, uncanted magazine well, railed handguard and full top rails. The barrel assembly resembles a [https://www.reddit.com/r/ModernWarfareIII/comments/17kkn9g/btw_the_sva545_is_not_simply_a_cursed_an94it_is/ conceptual 6x49mm rifle photoshopped by an internet forum user]. Despite this odd combination of visual elements, in gameplay terms the rifle is intended to be an AN-94, featuring its two-round hyperburst at the beginning of every trigger pull.

[[File:Type 81 x 2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Type 81 - 7.62x39mm]]

==Bushmaster ACR==
A [[Bushmaster ACR]] with tan furniture appears in-game as the "MCW".

==Bushmaster ACR DMR==
A [[Bushmaster ACR|Bushmaster ACR DMR]] fictionally chambered in 6.8x51mm with black furniture appears as the "MCW 6.8".
[[File:ACR DMR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Bushmaster ACR DMR - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==CZ 805 BREN==
The [[CZ 805 BREN]] appears as the "MTZ-556".

[[File:Modernwarfare 3 2023 bren 2 rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The CZ 805 in the campaign premiere.]]

==CZ BREN 2 BR==
The [[CZ BREN 2|CZ BREN 2 BR]] in 7.62x51mm NATO appears as the "MTZ-762".
[[File:CZ BREN 2 BR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CZ BREN 2 BR - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==CZ BREN 2 DMR==
A [[CZ BREN 2]] in a DMR configuration intended to pass for a BREN 2 PPS appears as the "MTZ Interceptor". By default, it has a short barrel, a stylized Magpul PRS stock and a pistol grip with palm shelf, but can be modified with a longer barrel and a standard BREN 2 BR/PPS stock and pistol grip.
[[File:CZ BREN 2 DMR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CZ BREN 2 DMR (previously known as BREN 2 PPS) - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000 Tactical]] is supposed to appear as the "ANVL-B".
[[File:FN F2000 TR rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN F2000 Tactical TR with gray finish - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==Heckler & Koch G36==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36]] resembling the stylized ''MW19'' counterpart appears in the assault rifle class as the "Holger 556‎".
[[File:G36A1.1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch G36A1.1 with an IdZ stock - 5.56x45mm]]

==Heckler & Koch G36K==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36K]] with a G36C carry handle appears in the light machine gun class as the "Holger 26", using a 60-round single drum magazine by default. The G36C carry handle is taller than the real version, a middle ground between it and the integrated optics carry handle. It can equip several full-length G36 barrel options (one of which has an integrated bipod), a 100-round double drum or 40-round magazine (no smaller, likely so as to not overlap in role with the assault rifle class version), as well as a stylized depiction of the G36's integrated carry handle optic.

[[File:HKG36KR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch G36KV with G36C carry handle - 5.56x45mm]]

===Heckler & Koch MG36===
Equipping the above G36K with the G36-length integrated bipod barrel, integrated optic, and 100-round drum makes for a proper [[MG36]] build.

[[File:MG36.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch MG36 - 5.56x45mm]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8==
The [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] is set to appear in the game.
[[File:HK SL8-4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch SL8-4 - 5.56x45mm]]

==QBZ-95==

[[File:QBZ-95-1 Picatinny Rail.jpg|thumb|none|450px|QBZ-95 and QBZ-95-1 with custom Picatinny rail system - 5.8x42mm]]

[[File:Modern warfare 3 2023 msbs grot vhs-1 rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The character on the right has the QBZ-97.]]

==SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] appears in the game as the "BAS-B". Unlike the [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based rifle from the previous game, it is stated to chamber the real life ".277 Fury" instead of "6.8 Wrath". Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]'', the weapon is depicted without its custom-designed SIG SLX suppressor by default.
[[File:SIG MCX Spear.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR (2022 model) with 13" barrel and SLX68-MG-QD suppressor - 6.8x51mm FURY]]

=Sniper Rifles=
==Bolt-action AK==
A bolt-action [[AK]] rifle appears in the beta as the "Longbow", fitted with a 25-round magazine.

==Chukavin SVCh-8.6==
The [[Chukavin SVCh|Chukavin SVCh-8.6]] appears as the "KV Inhibitor". It is fitted by default with a shorter barrel like SVCh variants of other calibers, while the "Kas-Dworf Heavy Long Barrel" attachment approximates the real SVCh-8.6's barrel length.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears as the "Pulemyot 762", with ''Pulemyot'' being Russian for ''machine gun''. As of the beta, it is incorrectly depicted with a disintegrating belt, unlike the PKM in ''MW2019'' (although that version incorrectly depicted the whole belt as non disintegrating, instead of breaking in sections of 25).

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II''''' is the nineteenth installment in the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is a direct sequel to ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'', and it was released on October 28, 2022.

Like ''Modern Warfare 2019'', the game is comprised of four main modes: the traditional singleplayer campaign, multiplayer, Spec Ops and Warzone 2.0 with additional DMZ mode.

The singleplayer story is the continuation of ''Modern Warfare''’s storyline, following the newly-formed elite multinational Task Force 141 in their continuing fight against the terrorist organization Al-Qatala, who have formed an alliance with the deadly Las Almas drug cartel.

The multiplayer is the standard attraction of the ''Call of Duty'' franchise, along with PvE Spec Ops missions. A new submode to Spec Ops are Raids, which are multi-stage, high-risk high-reward episodic long levels mixed with cooperative combat and puzzle-solving. As of March 2023, "Atomgrad" is the only available Raid in the game, along with four episodes which take place after the events of ''Modern Warfare'' and by extension, some events of Warzone 1.0 before the release of ''Black Ops: Cold War''.

Following on the heels of ''Warzone'', '''''Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0''''' is a standalone free-to-play gamemode that expands upon the original mode with new features and new maps, with additional maps being added later seasons. In addition, Warzone 2.0 also includes the DMZ submode, an extraction-type PvPvE gamemode where players complete faction quests, scavenge for weapons and loots, fend off against enemy NPCs as well as players and exfiltrate the map alive, with no set objective.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II}}

__TOC__ 

=Overview=
The weapon system in ''Modern Warfare II'' is a modified version of the weapons and Gunsmith system found in ''Modern Warfare'', with a limit of five mod slots. Primary weapons are divided into seven types: submachine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, battle rifles (high damage, high recoil select-fire rifles with low capacity), marksman rifles (high damage, accurate, exclusively semi-auto/manually-operated rifles, with iron sights), light machine guns, and sniper rifles. Weapon inspection animations are more intricate than it was in ''Modern Warfare'', with the user often checking the magazine and/or chamber in each of the inspect animations. The current ammunition type (hollow points, incendiary rounds and the like) can also be seen. As of Season 1, inspect animations now correctly account for if the weapon is empty or not; this was not the case during the multiplayer beta and launch builds of the game.

Weapon reloads are now "staged", meaning if the player performs an action that would cancel a reload (as with previous entries), the reload animation will resume to its previous state until the magazine/last round is either inserted (for non-empty reloads) or when the weapon is chambered. Underbarrel grenade launcher reloads are not affected by this, however.

Reaching the maximum level of a weapon unlocks Weapon Tuning, wherein the player can finetune various attachments to be slightly better at one statistic at the cost of another. Various store blueprints come with predetermined "pro-tuned" attachments; in which the player cannot modify. Pro-tuned attachments are reset if the player modifies their attachments or its tuning.

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments. It is possible to create a loadout with two similar weapons with marginally different stats, such as having the AUG A3 and AUG HBAR variant in the same loadout, with similar attachment setups. Post-release weapons in existing weapon platforms are not unlocked by progressing the specific weapon level required, as those are completed through various tasks instead.

The current Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* ISO Platform (B&T APC family)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Sakin G Series (Desert Eagle variants)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

Through the use of grip attachments, the "Pistol Fastdraw" benefit (previously known as "Tactical Pistol Raise") introduced in ''MWII'' is the ability to instantly draw the player's sidearm without fully lowering their primary weapon. Dual-wielding makes a return in ''Modern Warfare II'', although it is regulated to the grip attachment of the weapon instead of being a weapon perk and it's only restricted to handguns exclusively (including TEC-9 hybrid machine pistol).

Various executions (finishing moves) that use a firearm in this game now involve other weapon types, in addition to a pistol unlike in prior games. If the player has a weapon of the same class (assault rifle, SMG, etc) as a given execution's default weapon, the player's custom weapon will be featured instead.

''Modern Warfare II'' introduces extensive and realistic water physics, a significant improvement over ''Black Ops: Cold War'', the previous game in the series to feature water mechanics. Unlike in ''Cold War'', primary weapons can't be fired underwater and only handguns can, albeit with a reduced efficiency. Shooting into water and explosions cause ripples and mines float when thrown onto water. When swimming on the surface, water flows into the weapon's details and the weapon along with its user can get wet.

Weapon and inventory management in Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale is similar to its previous iteration, where in players are airdropped with weak weapons, scavenge weapons all over the game world and procure their own loadout weapons in a supply drop. DMZ on the other hand is similar to "extraction" games of a similar fashion. The player is given three insured weapon slots (one available at the start, the other two require metagame upgrades), which the player can customize and they do not get lost if they leave it in the game world (should the player die or exchange for a new weapon, even if the enemy picks up the weapon), though it has a cooldown which can be decreased by successful extractions, through upgrades, through certain in-game weapon blueprints (that are obtained through bundles) or by submitting items into a "dead drop" (which is an interactable dumpster) in certain locations of the map. In addition, the player has a number of temporary "contraband" weapon slots which are the weapons brought by the player upon a successful extraction. These weapons will be lost if they are dropped, although they can be destroyed in the game's lobby to free up space for more contraband weapons. Firearms can be customized in a Workbench while on a raid, albeit with a fee of credits obtained throughout the round and a limited selection of attachments.

As before, weapons in both Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale and DMZ can be acquired through enemies (either NPC bots or player operatives) or through various loot containers all over the map; contraband weapons from DMZ can also be obtained by completing various faction missions. Also, if the player extracts with a weapon that they haven't unlocked yet, the weapon will be immediately unlocked for free without the player level or weapon platform requirement.

The method of unlocking cosmetic camouflages was overhauled in ''MWII'' compared to its predecessors. Every weapon has four unique camouflages (with only one unique camo for every launcher), each with their easy challenges in order to unlock them. Once the specific camo is unlocked, it can be used in every weapon available, streamlining the process of the camo grind from previous games. Unlocking all base camouflages for the current weapon allows the player to progress through the mastery camo challenges.

=Handguns=
==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] returns as the ".50 GS" and is said to be manufactured by Sakin ("Sakin" meaning "Knife" in Hebrew, alluding to the knife in the logo of IMI/IWI). The new model is a bit more stylized and features Picatinny rails on the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, a skeletonized hammer, and has a two-tone finish that is basically the reverse of the Desert Eagle in the original ''[[Modern Warfare 2]]''; the ''MW2'' pistol had a chrome frame and trigger, while the ''MWII'' pistol has a chrome slide, barrel, and hammer. It is frequently used by Las Almas cartel members.

The standard magazine capacity is of 7 rounds, but extended baseplates that take the capacity to 10 or 13 rounds are available. The weapon can be modified with a ported barrel via the "SA Comp Barrel".

=="GS Magna"==
A Desert Eagle modified (presumably by cartel members) to fire full-auto based on the "Thunderbird" Desert Eagle made by YouTuber Mr.Wilk was added as a separate weapon in Season 3 Reloaded, as the "GS Magna". Aesthetically, the pistols differs from the game's standard Desert Eagle by featuring a ported barrel, different grip texture, a tan/bronze-like finish, and different markings. In gameplay terms, it cannot equip lasers/lights or trigger attachments, but can instead use vertical foregrips.

==Glock 17 MOS==
The "X12", manufactured by the in-game XRK, is a stylized [[Glock 17|Glock 17 MOS]]. It is based on a 5th generation version with front slide serrations, though it is depicted with two pins above the trigger like the Gen 3 and Gen 4 models (as opposed to one pin for the Gen 5). It's equipped with a plate system to mount red dots, just like the real Glock MOS System and many of its stylized parts include the rounded bottom beaver-tail, the MIL-STD 19-13 rail, the hinged trigger (which turns into a more Glock-style one with some customization options), a small port on top of the slide just rear of the front sight and the grip texture.

It can be fitted with a Flux Defense Brace, called "XRK Pistol Stock". It feeds by default from Magpul 17 round Glock magazines with a grey follower, a +7 extended baseplate that changes the follower color to orange, a 33-round stick magazine stylized to look like a Kriss MagEx2 (that's supposed to hold 40 rounds) and a Magpul PMAG D-50 GL9 50 round drum magazine. The same options are available for the Glock 18.

Judging by the square hole in the pistol's frame, where a QR code is painted out, the XRK pistol platform seems to be modular just like the [[SIG-Sauer P320]] or the ZEV OZ-9.

It is frequently used by Las Almas Cartel members, Soap, Rodolfo and Russian Konni PMCs in the campaign. Glocks are also seen in many character's holsters, including Ghost and Alejandro.

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", as part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and ''MW19''’s "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

In the campaign it's seen used by Russian PMCs and the Mexican Army (which is inaccurate, as the latter are issued the [[Beretta 92FS]] or the [[SIG-Sauer P226]]).

[[File:Mw22 x13 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The tan Glock 18 in the gunsmith preview screen. The markings here are different from the X12, them being "3S-A" and adding an "AUTO" writing next to the serial number.]]

[[File:Mw 22 x13 (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Brass checking the Glock 18.

Or maybe it's just a safety and the gun is full-auto only, as it cannot be switched to semi-auto in gameplay.]]
[[File:Mw 22 x13 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another small change from the X12 are the standard iron sights, which now have a green front post.]]
[[File:Mw 22 x13 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|After re-enacting one of his favourite TikToks by blasting away with a full-auto Glock, the operator reloads the empty G18.]]

===Glock 18 (in carbine conversion kit)===
Using the "Impact Point" barrel attachment places the X13 inside a carbine conversion kit. The kit resembles the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]] with its compact size and AR-15 style T-handle.

===Glock 18 (3D printed)===
3D printed Glock pistols appear in the hands of terrorists in the post-credits scene. A complete version of this cutscene also appears in the sequel, ''Modern Warfare III''. The pistols are likely based on the "X13 Auto" model, as they feature a selector switch on the right side of the slide.

In the scene, a terrorist assembles a 3D printed Glock pistol in a plane cabin mid-flight by smuggling individual gun components onto the plane separately. The individual parts shown include a metal firing pin (hidden in the safety belt buckle), a metal barrel (hidden in a flashlight), a trigger (disguised in a necklace), a polymer slide and a polymer frame (both hidden on the person), and a metal magazine with ammunition (hidden underneath a plate cloche).

Though dramatic, the scene is logistically unrealistic, as disassembled firearm components likely still would've been detected by airport security, and the insider collaboration required for hiding the gun parts on the plane in the first place likely would've also allowed for a full gun to be smuggled. Additionally, the metal parts shown would be insufficient to assemble a functional gun - while 3D-printed Glock frames do exist, they use metal fire control parts, metal springs, metal locking blocks inserted into the frame, and (perhaps most crucially) metal slides.

The whole thing might have been inspired by videos such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4dBuPJ9p7A story by VICE about printing a Glock], though, even that particular video shows the complexities involved with the assembly.
[[File:Mwii3dglock1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The terrorist places individual parts on his tray table.

[[File:Mwii3dglock23.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Holding the completed Glock.]]

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
A [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. At launch, the trigger was not animated during the decocking sequence, though this has since been patched. When using the double-action-only trigger group, the trigger is still incorrectly in the more rearward single action position, however. It feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

Like the two Glock variants, the P220 features a slide equipped with a cut for micro red dot optics (that mount directly onto the slide, instead of having different plates between the slide and the optic, which would mean that either all the MRDs in the game share the same mounting system or the cut is universal), a feature not available out of the box on the real SIG.

It seems to be a favorite of various members of TF 141 and US MARSOC in "Kill or Capture" are seen with the pistols in their holsters instead of the more fitting M45A1 or the Glock 19 (which could have been made as the X14 in-game).

===SIG-Sauer P220 X-Six===
Fitting the P220 with the "Matuzek Cottonmouth Barrel" (which is stated to be 140mm long, while the X-Six's is 153mm long), the "Bruen RSH-80 Grip" and the "XRX Heavy V3" trigger group will make it somewhat resemble the P220 X-Six, retaining the double-action trigger mechanism and black standard frame.

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] appears as the "Basilisk" (or "Centum 5" in pre-release). The barrel appears to be somewhere between the 4 and 8 inch barrel options for the real Model 500, most likely 6 inches. Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]''’s Taurus Raging Hunter, unfired rounds in the chamber are retained while reloading. Having the "Fast Reload" perk or "Akimbo" attachment omits retaining rounds entirely, but keeps it in the player's ammunition pool.

The primers will always appear as intact, however.]]

==Staccato P==
The [[STI 1911 Series|Staccato P]] was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "9mm Daemon". Its default magazine holds 15 rounds (the real Staccato mag holds 17), options for 20 and 26 round magazines are also available. The gun can be extensively customized with parts inspired by various custom 2011 gunmakers. A barrel option gives the Daemon a frame mounted red dot, charging handle and a competition slide with a compensator, a setup commonly found on IPSC Open race guns; this slide also changes the equip/first-draw animation from a twirl followed by chambering the pistol, to simply chambering the pistol using the charging handle. A first in the series, the gun can be fitted with a magwell (in the Grip slot), which negates the need for the Sleight of Hand perk and makes the gun reload faster by default. When drawing and holstering the pistol, the manual thumb safety is used, although in a bit of a dramatic way when it comes to stowing away the weapon.
The gun has very high hip-fire accuracy, suggested by how close the operator holds it, in a Central Axis Relock manner, it manages to have very low recoil, even less than the Glock 17, which has virtually none, and a fast fire rate by default, overall a great 9mm secondary.

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with a traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear and as capable of being chambered from empty with the existing bolt release, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle (that can be changed to the left with the bolt release removed from the lower receiver) and no automatic bolt hold open, though it can be manually locked to the rear using the existing lower's bolt release lever. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system, probably based on the Gen 2 handguard (although the Gen 2 handguard is still a quad-rail design with cooling slits, not a proper M-LOK design) or the new M-LOK ULT rails on current production models (though seeming to lack the QD cup and dedicated 1913 picatinny rails on the bottom which would negate the ability to put the adapters that are there that are on the model). It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock (which would not be possible on the real gun as the stock requires a shortened proprietary combined bolt carrier + buffer to use) and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

On a related note, it is not the first time that the AR-57 was conceived into the ''Call of Duty'' series, as it was planned to be added in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' as a [[Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops II#AR-57|usable weapon]]. It was however, eventually replaced by a [[Call of Duty: Black Ops II#"PDW-57"|fictional variant]] of the P90 before the game's release.

==Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC45|Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO]] was added in Season 4 as the "ISO 45". It retains some of the animations of the previous "ISO" submachine gun in ''Modern Warfare 2019''. It is also stylized similarly to it, including the upper receiver being extended to the rear (albeit not as much as its ''MW19'' counterpart). By default, it is modeled with the "FTAC 225mm Dominator" barrel from ''Modern Warfare'', which is an extended barrel of intermediate length between the APC45/APC9 and the APC9-P. It can be modified to resemble an APC45 SD with the “16" XLB-S” barrel, or an APC9 K with the “4" Frame S-1” barrel and "SK-3 Cheetah" stock.

==Brügger & Thomet APC9 K PRO G==
In addition to the aforementioned APC45, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9 K PRO G]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'', added in Season 6 under the name "ISO 9mm". By default it's loaded with 33-round Glock magazines, and also comes with a stock attachment option to retract its stock, which can also be used on its .45 caliber sibling.

==FN P90 TR==
A stylized [[FN P90 TR]] (inspired by some blueprints from ''Modern Warfare'' with the grip design based on that of the [[Magpul PDR-C]]) appears as the "PDSW 528" as part of the Tactique Defense platform. The "528" designation is an abridgement of its '''5'''.7x'''28'''mm caliber. The stylized magazine from those blueprints is now transparent, and tracks the feeding ammunition. The P90 TR can be turned into a regular P90 with its integrated optic, however unlike ''MW19'' this attachment isn't in the Optic category, but rather a new "Rail" category that allows for three different upper receivers: The (stylized) P90 TR upper by default, the P90 upper with optic, or the aftermarket EFFEN 90 upper with a tiny low profile rail. Equipping the integrated optic upper blocks use the optics attachment category. The longer-than-normal barrel can be returned to its proper length with the “9.5" Duke-30” barrel attachment.

It only fires in full auto in-game; the selector functionality is absent.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3==
The "Lachmann Sub" is a [[Heckler & Koch HK94A3]] chopped and converted to resemble an [[MP5A5]]. The giveaway is that, along with other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform (which is clearly supposed to represent the Heckler & Koch roller-delayed family of weapons), it lacks a paddle magazine release, leaving only the (extended) button release. The game's HK94 has a 3-round burst trigger group installed, as well as an MP5's barrel with attachment lugs. Curiously enough, the trigger group lacks a semi-auto position; accordingly, the weapon can be switched between full-auto and three-round burst during gameplay, but not semi-auto. The in-game weapon also sports a strange cylindrical charging handle that differs from the other weapons in its family.
15, 30 (the default one) and 40 round metal magazines are available, along with a 50 round drum inspired by the Magpul PMAG D-50 MP.

The "Lachmann Pulsar" barrel attachment gives it a short barrel approximating that of an [[MP5K]]. The "LM Cronus Grip" gives it the same [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group as the one seen on ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s MP5 blueprints, with the triangular parts still facing the wrong directions, but this time the selector markings are "S-3-F".

The HK94A3 is mostly used by the Las Almas Cartel and Colonel Vargas' "Los Vaqueros" federal special forces unit in the campaign story.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (with integral suppressor)==
An integrally suppressed version of the aforementioned HK94A3 (intended to pass for an [[MP5SD]]) was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "Lachmann Shroud". In contrast to its unsuppressed counterpart, it lacks a full-auto option, and is instead fitted with a safe/semi-auto/3-round burst trigger group.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A2==
A fictionalized [[Heckler & Koch MP7A2]] appears as the "VEL 46" as part of the LMP platform.
It feeds from 40 round magazines by default, and 30 round stylized magazines, a fictional quadstack 50 rounder and 60 round drum are available to extend the gun's capacity.

==Interdynamic KG-9 / Intratec TEC-9 hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[Interdynamic KG-9]] and the [[Intratec TEC-9]] was added to the handguns class in Season 3 Reloaded as the "FTAC Siege". The weapon has four upper receiver options, most of which have sub-options as well. The standard upper receiver also comes in an extended barrel variant ("Ratchet BE"), an extended barrel and barrel shroud variant ("SuperTac-VI"), and an integrally suppressed variant ("Ratchet BE Tac"). An upper based on the TEC-9 Mini ("Mouse 99") is also available, which blocks the use of grips, optics, and lasers due to its small size. A much longer upper with angled shroud holes comes in standard ("CMRN-50") and integrally suppressed ("NST-81", previously known as "STF-U") variations, and a lightweight upper with rectangular holes and entirely different iron sights are also options.

The gun can equip the wire stock and foregrip of the KG-9's full-auto sibling, the MP-9. Other stock and grip options are available, including an angled metal foregrip highly reminiscent of the [[Beretta 93R]]. A unique thread-on suppressor is also available, and the SMG feeds from 32-round mags, 20-round mags, 50-round drums, or 72-round drums. As of Season 4, it can be dual-wielded, and uniquely, it features an on-screen reload animation when reloading the weapon while akimbo; though it is not the first game that does this, ''[[Call of Duty 2: Big Red One]]'' and ''Call of Duty: Mobile'' both feature such akimbo reload animations for pistols and the Vector respectively.

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", which is still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver and once again has a massively shrunk-down Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for, thus resulting in the weapon having actual muzzle rise. As with the P220 pistol, killing opponents with the Vector will hide death skull indicators with its subsonic .45 ammunition.

The default magazines for the Fennec are KRISS MagEx2's with a 30 round capacity. The two other magazine options are a 13-round Glock 21 magazine underloaded to 12 rounds (it actually does have one less witness hole, a very nice detail) which converts the Fennec to 2-round burst, and a Magpul D-50 9mm Glock drum magazine adapted to .45 ACP and with a 45 round capacity.

The weapon has an extended barrel and handguard, the former similar in length to the 8" export model only available in Ukraine, and the latter seemingly inspired by the KRISS MK1 Modular Rail. Barrel customization options include the “5.5" Fennec Minitac” (a standard Vector's 5.5" barrel), “FTac 8.5" Recon” (actually a 6.5" barrel with a stylized MK5 Modular Rail), and "Fennec Covert Force" (a barrel shroud based on a Vector CRB Enhanced, depicted as an integral suppressor in-game).

Stock options include the "Agile Assault-7 Stock" (based on the early TDI Vector prototype stock) and the "FTac Stock Cap" (a Vector SDP's quick-detach sling swivel).

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[PP-19 Bizon-2]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "Minibak", now with a more correctly modeled receiver, forend and stock. It still uses the earlier Bizon-1's 64-round helical magazine by default, but this time with the magazine front attachment point of the Bizon-2.

==PP-19-01 Vityaz==
The [[PP-19-01 Vityaz]] appears as the "Vaznev-9K". It is fitted with a railed AK-100 series polymer style forend. Prior to the Season 1 update, the Vityaz could not accept any underbarrel accessories in multiplayer. Vityazs with underbarrel grips can be found in the Campaign in the hands of Al-Qatala and Russian PMCs.

In addition to the standard 30-round stick mag the gun feeds from by default, the Vityaz can accept fictional quad-stack 45-round magazines. It can also be modified with a [[Saiga 9]]'s 367mm barrel via the "SA Response III" barrel attachment.

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1. It is part of the "Bruen Ops" platform, suggesting that the in-game manufacturer Bruen (which also manufactures the Bruen Bullpup/AUG platform) is a mishmash of SIG and Steyr.

The optional barrels are the following: “12" Bruen SZ-36” (a fictional-length barrel with an M-LOK handguard that looks like a Midwest Industries / Samson Manufacturing hybrid), “10.5" Bruen Typhon” (an integrally suppressed barrel with an MPX Gen 1 style handguard), “6.5" Bruen Drake” (a 6.5" barrel with a factory MPX-style M-LOK handguard), and “4" Thunderfire” (an [[SIG-Sauer MPX K|MPX K]]'s 4.5" barrel).

The "Battle Worn" blueprint, Alejandro's customized MPX from the campaign, was made unlockable for multiplayer during a time-limited event in Season 5. This blueprint's add-on flaired magwell and titanium nitride-coated bolt also make it ideal for a [[John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum|''John Wick'']] build, something likely intentional on the developers' part given how specific a combination this is.

The [[Steyr AUG A3 9mm XS]] appears as the "MX9", fed by 25- and 32-round stylized [[Steyr MPi 69/81]] magazines.

=Shotguns=
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12." It is used by Shadow Company and Task Force 141 members in the story.

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel, longer competition-style magazine tube, railed and slim forends and a variety of stock options including a field stock option, collapsed and extended stock and a fixed pistol grip stock combination. Interestingly, it is capable of firing Dragon's Breath shells with no issues; while the M4 can fire such shells, they have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds, as such they require manual cycling.

The "Bryson Reverb-55 Stock" gives it a fixed stock similar to Magpul shotgun stocks, and the "419mm Schlager Salvo" and "FSS Frame Stock" are resemble the forend and stock of the pump-action [[FABARM STF 12]].

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story and DMZ. The shotgun received a dual trigger attachment option with Season 6, allowing the player character to fire both barrels simultaneously. To help balance the need to reload after every trigger pull with this attachment, the player character will slide in both shells in simultaneously, as opposed to one after the other in the normal empty reload.

===Side by Side Shotgun===
The "Super Shotgun" blueprint from the DOOM bundle is a [[Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun|sawed-off side by side shotgun]]. As the entire weapon model is replaced, its attachments cannot be customized, though it should be noted that it's statistically identical to the Citori. One of its attachments is the double trigger, added just before this bundle and clearly specifically created to allow the Super Shotgun to function as it should. Faithful to its [[Doom (VG)|source material]], the entire shotgun is animated with the same jittery style as the original DOOM Super Shotgun as opposed to standard interpolation animation used in other weapons, although the animations revert to standard, albeit currently bugged, Citori animations when a camo is applied. Other changes include the original red muzzle flash, its sway pattern, and sound.
[[File:Remington SBS.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Remington Spartan sawed-off shotgun - 12 gauge]]

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube. The updated empty inspect animation even shows correct operation for a Benelli-style semi-automatic shotgun, showing the bolt carrier moving freely without locking back until the operator dry-fires the shotgun and racks it back, causing it to lock open. A Dragon's Breath-equipped model has also been introduced into the game with the release of Season 5 under the name "Corvus Torch".

==IWI Tavor TS12==
The [[IWI Tavor TS12]] was added in Season 4 Reloaded as the "MX Guardian". Unlike its real-life counterpart, the TS12 in-game effectively functions as a shotgun Bizon, sporting a detachable helical/prism magazine instead of the triple 5-round tube cluster of the real life version. Thus, upon reloading, the user simply swaps out the magazine instead of inserting individual shells. The TS12 is also fully automatic by default, with semi-automatic and two-round burst fire trigger packs (probably to simulate a binary trigger) as attachments, unlike the real TS12, which comes in semi-automatic by default (of course with the possibility of homemade trigger packs). Prior to the Season 5 update, the shotgun's in-game description described it as having the real version's three separate rotating magazine tubes.

==Molot Vepr-12==
The [[Vepr-12]] was added in Season 2 as the "KV Broadside", an addition to the "Kastovia" platform. It feeds from 8-round magazines, with the option for 12-rounders or 25-round drums, though curiously it cannot use its smaller 5-round mags, despite them already being in the game (used by the Mossberg 590M). Along with being fitted with a left side charging handle modification, the shotgun's bolt will lock open when empty when using either stick magazine, but does not lock back when using the drum. The Vepr is the first weapon outside of the Assault Rifle and Battle Rifle classes able to mount underbarrel weapons, both the GP-25 and (rather amusingly) the underbarrel shotgun. It can be loaded with Dragon's Breath incendiary shells, though as with the Benelli M4 above, low-powered rounds would make the weapon's usage unfeasible because of the weapon's self-loading nature. It is not an issue when used in-game, though. A custom Vepr-12 firing incendiary shells is the weapon of choice of the Pyro DMZ boss, along with a riot shield.

As a post-release weapon, it can either be permanently unlocked by completing its challenge, purchasing by a store bundle that has the weapon, or by extracting the weapon in DMZ mode.

==Mossberg 590==
The [[Mossberg 590]] appears as the "Bryson 800". Unlike the previous ''Modern Warfare''’s pump-action shotguns, this weapon is chamber-loaded upon running empty, a rare instance in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise.

===Serbu Super Shorty===
Equipping the “8" XRK CQB Barrel” and the "Stockless Pistol Grip" via Gunsmith converts the "Bryson 800" into a [[Serbu Super Shorty]].

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files (which did eventually come to the game in Season 2), and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (5, 8, and 12).

A Los Vaqueros operative uses the 590M to breach a door in the "Cartel Protection" mission.

==AK-103==
The [[AK-103]] appears as the "Kastov 762". The "Kastov" label implies that the rifle was developed in the fictional country of Kastovia from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]''. Magazine options include the standard 30-round polymer mag, and 20 or 40 round steel magazines.

The weapon can be modified with an [[AKM]]'s gas block and wooden handguard via the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel attachment, as well as AKM's stock via the "Ivanov Wood Stock", while retaining the AK-103's front sight block, smooth dust cover, and folding stock hardware on the left side of the receiver. It can also be fitted with an [[AKMS]]'s underfolding stock via the "Prolite TL3 Stock". Some of these combinations can be found in the campaign. The "Cursed" blueprint from Season 3 "features" a removed dust cover, which showcases the AK's bolt.

===AK-104===

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty.

The default magazines are tan 30-rounders (6L23) and alternative options include 20-round black polymer mags, a 45-round classic red 6L18 magazine and a 60-round quad-stack black magazine (6L31).

===AKS-74N===
The rifle can be turned into a pseudo [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. This is achieved by pairing the "Kastov-Rama" stock with either the "Kastovia 406" barrel (which has a synthetic handguard) or the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel (which has a wooden handguard, along with an earlier AKM's 62 degree gas block and slant brake). The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, previously including the impossible reloading technique without the stock. As of the Season 2 update, the gun instead has a unique empty reload animation when lacking a stock, in which the player character holds the gun sideways, knocks out the old mag with the new one (held "upside down" in their hand), then rocks it in and performs and underhand pull of the bolt, similar to the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'' 's [[AN-94]].

The loadout and progression menu images show it with a polymer 7.62x39mm magazine, though an [[AKMSU]] conversion or separate weapon does not appear in the released game. At the moment the gun uses black polymer 30 round magazines (6L23) by default, 20 rounders serve as fast mags, and the same 45 round magazine available from the AK-105 (6L18) serves as the only extended option.

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks. It is a common weapon from Al-Qatala NPC forces in Al Mazrah in DMZ.

==Brügger & Thomet APC556==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC556]] was added in Season 2, as the "ISO Hemlock". The rifle is part of the "ISO" platform, connecting the APC556 to its smaller sibling, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9]]/"ISO" from ''MW19''. It also shares similar Magpul MBUS styled iron sights.

The game files refer to the weapon as "ar_acharlie300", alluding to the APC300 variant. In addition, the ejection port is marked "Cal. 7.62x35mm" (i.e. .300 AAC Blackout), and the handguard is an elongated version of the one seen on the APC300 and early versions of the APC556 PDW (interestingly, the rifle in-game is a normal APC556/300 upper receiver on a Pro lower receiver, shown by its ability to change pistol grips). Conversely, the gas system is of APC556-esque length. The weapon is chambered in the APC556's 5.56x45mm cartridge by default, and can be modified to use the APC300's .300 Blackout ammunition.

Being a post-release weapon, the APC556 is unlocked either through store bundles, DMZ or challenge unlock.

==Colt Model 901==
The [[M16A4|Colt Model 901]] (which was marketed as an M16A3) appears in the game as the "M16". It fires in three-round bursts, meaning it is intended to pass for an M16A4, but the fire selector has the Safe/Semi/Auto markings of the A3 rather than the A4's Safe/Semi/Burst. It is fitted with a KAC M5 railed handguard and feeds from the same stylized windowed PMAGs used with the "M4". Along with the two extended magazine options available for the "M4", the M16 can also use short 20-round GI magazines that hold 15 rounds for some reason (maybe because 20 isn't a multiple of 3 or to align it with the same magazine option seen on the HK93, which also is a 20 rounder limited to a capacity of 15).

A properly functioning R0901-style rifle can also be achieved by modifying the "M4" mentioned below, although keeping the non-milspec upper and lower receiver.

Numerous factions in the campaign use the Model 901 M16 rifle, including Al-Qatala, the Las Almas Cartel, and the Mexican Army.

Note the "M16A2" markings on the magwell, which (intentionally or not) would be correct for an M16A3, as the receiver of the real weapon is indeed marked as such.]]

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).

Fitting the M16 with the "11.5 T-H4 Barrel" and any telescoping stock will create a Mk 18 Mod 1.

===M4A1 Carbine===
The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight, turning it into an [[M4A1]] (or an [[M4 Carbine|M4]] in gameplay terms).

==FAMAS Valorisé==
The [[FAMAS Valorisé]] was added in Season 5 under the name "FR Avancer", though the markings on its model read "Modèle 223". As with every other FAMAS in ''Call of Duty'' thus far the rifle features 25-round magazines; for the second time in the series they actually hold the correct 25 rounds, rather than 30. 45- and 60-round quad-stack magazines are available alternate options, with the former being the "chopped" MAG5-60 quad-stack model seen on Instagram and in the previous Modern Warfare game. Also as in ''MW19'', the rifle's integrated bipod can be deployed as an attachment (though currently this also unnecessarily equips a rail under the handguard, as was the case for the RPK's bipod before that was fixed), while equipping the "SA Ion" pistol grip and "FR Sprinter" stock pad brings the rifle closer in appearance to its real world counterpart.

A pseudo FAMAS FÉLIN build can be achieved by adding the "3x RFL-Optic" and "OP-X9 Foregrip" to the aforementioned pistol grip and stock.

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50-round drum, are available as extended options. Interestingly, the rifle features its internal file name in its receiver markings, placed as if "SCHotel" is its in-universe model name; following the standards of internal file names, "S C Hotel" naturally stands for "'''SC'''AR-'''H'''". This time, it is correctly classified as a battle rifle instead of an assault rifle.

[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the gunsmith preview screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19''’s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a rail extension and a fixed stock resembling an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S stock or a KRG SCAR Long Range Stock. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story. 10-, 15- and 20-round magazines are available, all of which being 5-rounds-underloaded compared to real life.

It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor. At the time of the game's release, the real SCAR 17S could be converted to use this cartridge (while the SCAR 20S had received that caliber as a factory option). Interestingly, a year later (September 2023), FN America announced the availability of a limited-edition SCAR 17S DMR that is actually chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor and has a fixed SSR stock.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver. It feeds from black STANAG style 30-round magazines, but 40-round PMAGs and 60-round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

It comes with a (swappable) stylized A2 grip by default and the magazine release on the right side seems to be an aftermarket extended one.

Marines in "Kill or Capture" have SCAR-Ls. It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

===FN SCAR-L CQC===
Equipping the SCAR-L with the "12' Tacshort Barrel" will give it a CQC-length barrel.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A2==
A [[Heckler & Koch HK91A2]] with a safe/semi/auto select fire trigger group appears as the "Lachmann-762". Like the other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform, it lacks a paddle magazine release, distinguishing it from the military [[G3]]. It appears to be fitted with a stylized slimline handguard.

It is a standard rifle of the Mexican Army in-game.

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===

==Heckler & Koch HK93A2==
A shortened [[Heckler & Koch HK93A2]] with a Magpul-inspired trigger group with safe/semi/auto positions appears as the "Lachmann-556". Once again, the lack of a paddle magazine release distinguishes it from the military [[HK33]].

It is intended to be an [[HK53]], as evidenced by the game files referring to it as "ar_kilo53", though the barrel and the cocking tube are slightly longer than this version, with the length being between the HK53 and the HK33KA3. It can be made HK33-length with the "Lachmann Nova" or "LM Aurora 90 Barrel" attachments (these two having same cocking tube length as each other, and almost the same barrel length), or HK33K-esque length (shorter than proper, but longer than the game's default) with the "Lach-12 Barrel".

It feeds from translucent 30-round magazines by default, but it can also use 20-round magazines (that hold 15 rounds), 40-round extended magazines or a 60-round drum inspired by the X-Products drum available for the G3 family of rifles.

[[File:Hk93 mw22 (8).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with all the roller-delayed guns in the game, the tactical reload starts by locking the bolt back, then the magazines are swapped and the charging handle is given a gentle tug to let it go forward. Worth noting is that all the magazines that are either translucent or have windows on their side only render the top bullet during reloads, as you can see with the one on the left. The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done; this was fixed sometime after the Season 1 update. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

==HS Produkt VHS-K2==
A heavily stylized [[HS Produkt VHS-K2]] with a Springfield Armory Hellion-style trigger guard and pistol grip was added in Season 4 as the "Tempus Razorback." The top rail assembly resembles that of the [[FB MSBS Grot|FB MSBS Grot B]] (alongside the "TA ERGO" stock option), and the charging handle is also similar to the Grot B's, though moved forward over the fire control area. The rifle can equip the VHS-2's integral optic carry handle, tied to the "17" IO-XL" barrel attachment; this barrel is longer than standard, roughly between the VHS-K2 and VHS-D2. The "13" Frenzy IX" barrel features a shorter optics rail as well as a unique red dot sight which replaces the ironsights; this sight can itself be replaced by other optics. The default empty reload animation has an interesting dynamic feature - normally, the charging handle is used, but interrupting it by swapping or sprinting will result in the operator using the bolt release after the interruption.

==LoneStar Future Weapons RM277==
A [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based bullpup rifle was added to the battle rifles class in Season 3 under the name "Cronen Squall". It is depicted as a heavily stylized version of the first prototype, noticeable by having a rear magazine release. However, it also has two buttons near the trigger group that act as bolt release buttons instead of magazine release buttons, a black cheek rest, switchable ejection ports and an enlarged rear similar to that of the [[Desert Tech Micro Dynamic Rifle]]. It is chambered in "6.8 Wrath", an in-universe version of 6.8x51mm SIG FURY, which is the cartridge of the [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] (now designated as the XM7) that prevailed over the RM277 in the NGSW trials.

The gun uses conventional full brass case ammo like the civilian/training ammo by default but a 6.8 Composite ammo option is also available, bringing it back to the original 6.8mm TVCM cartridge that the RM277 was chambered in. Beside that, Frangible and Hollowpoint ammo options give the 6.8mm SIG FURY cartridge its well-known hybrid case (these options are correct as currently, available hybrid-case ammo to the civilian market is those two options). It is fed by default using 20-round L7 AWM magazines with a 30-rounder and a 50-round Magpul D-50 drum magazine also available; the rifle can also equip its proprietary micro flow-through Brevis III suppressor.

While the real rifle fires from a closed bolt in semi-auto and an open bolt in full-auto, its in-game incarnation is depicted as always firing from an open bolt (with the same firing delay given to all other open bolt weapons), though inconsistent with this, the empty reload animation features the player character using the bolt release as if the rifle were firing from a closed bolt. The out-of-ammo inspect animation is also consistent with the gun always being open bolt, beginning with the trigger being pulled to dry-fire the rifle. In order for the rifle to at least be internally consistent to its fictional always-open-bolt self, the empty reload animation should instead not use the bolt release, and simply swap mags like a non-empty reload.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12.5" barrel appears as the "M4", based on the [[Geissele Super Duty|Geissele M4A1 URG-I]] (also informally known as the M4A1 "Block III") used by USASOC and even some Navy SEAL operators. The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard depicted with an 11.5" length, a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40-round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine plastic handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight with an added rail underneath and a small section of picatinny rail mounted on the right side of the gas block, essentially turning it into a pseudo-[[M4A1]]. The “Tempus High Tower 20" Barrel” attachment gives it a KAC M5 RAS/20" barrel/AR front sight, making it into a pseudo-[[M16A3]] when combined with the "Demo Precision Elite Factory" stock. Pairing this barrel with an M203 automatically swaps the rail system for the classic M203 heatshield, previously its own separate attachment in ''MW19''; this also happens on the game's M16, which features this barrel attachment by default.

Other barrel options include the “7.5" Tempus Firebrand”, the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16-inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the “11.5" T-H4 Barrel”, which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18/RIS II rail and a 10.3-inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament, which is the in-universe version of Knight's Armament Company based on the knight armored glove and mace logo.

==="Flatline"===
The same futuristic VLTOR/Magpul themed M4A1 Carbine from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare|Infinite Warfare]]'' appears as the "Flatline" blueprint available for the in-game M4, named after the Epic rarity variant of the same name for the fictional "NV4" assault rifle (although not modeled after the actual variant that appears in that game). While both of the upper and lower receivers are retained, the handguard and sights are not and the muzzle, magazine, and stock are modeled after the ''MWII''’s variant instead, albeit rethemed to better match the NV4 itself.

The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle in-game, though .458 SOCOM is more of an oversized intermediate cartridge.

The rifle appears to be built on an otherwise generic milspec M16 lower, a la the default "M4" in-game, but with aesthetic similarities to the "XRK M4" from ''Modern Warfare'' (based on a Radian Weapons receiver) on the left side around the magazine well. The left side of the upper receiver bears a vague resemblance to a Mega Arms GTR-3H with grooves similar to the JP Enterprises CTR-02, but with said grooves cut in the opposite direction; the right side appears to be based on a Wilson Combat Stripped Billet AR-15 upper or a CMMG MkW-15 upper.

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10-round magazines.

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classified as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an 18" Mk 14 EBR barrel by default, and can be modified with a standard M14's barrel via the “22" Factory Fourteen Barrel” option, as well as a “16" Chrome-Lined RFX40 Barrel” similar to the SOCOM 16. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options. All box magazine options for both M14s are loaded with 5 rounds less than their real capacities a la the faux SCAR Mk 20 in the game.

==M14 (in Sage EBR chassis)==
The marksman rifle-classed "EBR-14" returns from the previous game, this time setup akin an M14 in a Sage EBR chassis. It can be identified as such by the 22" barrel and the select-fire lever, though the latter is unused; the weapon is only used in semi-automatic mode in-game. It uses 10-round mags by default, with 15 and 20-round extended magazines available.

===Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR===
Equipping the “18" Lonestar” or “18" T300” barrel makes the weapon resemble a [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]].

==Malyuk==
The [[Malyuk]] was added in Season 6 as the "TR-76 Geist". Despite that name, the rifle's markings seem to show its in-universe name as "Usenko", as well as correctly being marked as made in Ukraine.

==Marlin Model 336==
The [[Marlin Model 336]] appears as the "Lockwood Mk2", under the marksman rifles class. It is depicted as being chambered in the .45-70 Government cartridge, like the [[Marlin Model 1895]] that previously appeared in ''Modern Warfare'' as the "MK2 Carbine", but this time the shape of the ejection port indicates that it is a Model 336. It features the same basic ammo options as the other marksman rifles; notably, this includes armor-piercing ammo - while .45-70 AP rounds do exist (e.g. Lehigh Defense's X-Treme Penetrator rounds), the ones in-game are visually the same as the other calibers (likely for consistency's sake), with a black-finished case, a silver jacket, and a black spitzer-type point. Realistically, loading spitzer-pointed rounds in a tube magazine could lead to a chain-detonation (i.e. one round's point impacting the next round's primer), blowing the entire magazine tube apart.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] returns from the previous game as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel of 10 inches (which is not a standard length on the real VIRTUS). While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs, in fact being Rodolfo's signature weapon throughout the campaign (with a distinct two tone finish resembling the classic ''MW2'' ACR). It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1. Which can be unlocked by either completing its unlock challenge or via DMZ, where it can either be obtained by the Chemist boss agent (who uses the "Health Hazard" blueprint, which can also be unlocked with the gun), enemy agents in Building 21 or through players, enemy or friendly. If the player successfully extracts with the MCX, it will be unlocked in all game modes, as well as the aforementioned blueprint if obtained. Purchasing a bundle that has the MCX in it will also unlock the weapon.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards. For magazines, a translucent 30-round magazine is available by default with a PMAG-40 holding 45 rounds and the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine as alternative options. On an interesting note: when using the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine, the character can be seen putting the spent magazine into the plate carrier's pouches instead of the battle belt when performing a tactical reload.

In the intro cutscene for the campaign mission "Ghost Team", there is a picture of three Shadow Company operatives, with one of them holding an MCX VIRTUS with a more correctly modeled handguard.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS (.300 Blackout)==
A shorter-barreled (approximately 6.75 inches), .300 AAC Blackout version of the aforementioned MCX VIRTUS was added during Season 5 as the "M13C". While it is intended to pass for a [[SIG-Sauer MCX Rattler]], judging by the "ar_ralpha" internal file name and the chambering, it is actually an MCX VIRTUS with a stylized handguard, as evidenced by the forward assist and the barrel length.

==SIG-Sauer MCX / Honey Badger hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). However, the model in the game lacks a gas tube when previewing the weapon in the Gunsmith menu, either being a mistake or showing that the weapon is using direct blowback to operate (which is concerningly doable considering other higher-pressured cartridges being able to do it with a much heavier bolt carrier group). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is Simon "Ghost" Riley's main weapon throughout the campaign, where it is briefly available when the player takes control of him during the opening mission (with the unsuppressed “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

As with the KRISS Vector above, firing the weapon will not produce tracers and killing enemies with the Honey Badger hides skull indicators, thanks to its use of .300 AAC Blackout ammunition.

As with the MCX above, there are several ways to unlock the Honey Badger, either through purchasing a bundle that has it (along with the blueprint), completing its unlock challenge or through DMZ, where the player can scavenge a Honey Badger there. The Building 21 map is also a useful location in finding the carbine, as enemy agents use it on occasion or through the loot pools.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Accuracy International AW50==
The [[Accuracy International AW50]] appears as the "Victus XMR"; it is available in Season 1 under the Imperatorium platform. It is worth noting (as with the AR-57) that the AW50 was planned for the original ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'' game, but only its code and firing sound (which sounds similar to the M82A1 in that game) are left as the weapon was scrapped, and it wasn't added to the ''Call of Duty'' series proper until ''MWII''.

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", .300 Winchester Magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively, and all other MRADs found in the story have the same naming issue.

==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
The [[Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] was added in Season 3, under the name "FJX Imperium". It is chambered in ".408 PACE", the analogue to the real life .408 CheyTac round. For laser attachments, the M200 uses the small "tube"-style laser set rather than the PEQ Box-style set, and despite the forward top rail being present they attach to the right side, thus it's unfortunately not possible to replicate the PEQ-2 attached to the original MW2's Intervention.

==Knight's Armament SR-25 E2 PR==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25|Knight's Armament SR-25 PR]] is the mid-season weapon in Season 2 Reloaded. It was added as a marksman rifle part of the M4 platform, under the name "Tempus Torrent". The rifle's SOPMOD-style stock can be equipped on every other member of the M4 platform, while its forend customization is split between a combination of the Barrel and Guard categories. The Guard category consists of four (including default) rail system options, one of which being a monolithic upper receiver; the "Torrent Tac Guard" resembles the URX 3 rail. The Barrel category includes standard, shorter, and longer options, as well as the “14" Chroma LRS” which is the URX / "Tac Guard" rail system (this time without rail covers) paired with an M110- / Mk 11-style suppressor, and a short barrel paired with a fifth type of rail system. The "Torrent MOC-IV" forend is based on a VLTOR CAS-V handguard that rather unfortunately leaves the gas tube exposed.

Using the "Torrent Tac Guard" and “16" Tour RP” allows for a SR-25 ECC style build.

==M24 SWS==
The [[M24 SWS]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "SP-R 208" marksman rifle, this time chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO.

==Remington Model 700 (in custom chassis)==
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is a [[Remington Model 700]] variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. The resulting model has a short barrel reminiscent of the Remington 700 PCR SBR, a stylized-to-fit MDT chassis similar to the Israeli-modernized M24, and a stock of the Remington 700 PCR Enhanced. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .308 Winchester, befitting its status as a civilian rifle.

==Remington Mk 13 Mod 0==
A stylized [[Remington Mk 13 Mod 0]] appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the Remington Mk 13 Mod 0. It can be identified by the McMillan A2 stock, the .300 Winchester Magnum chambering and the fact that it appears as a variant to the aforementioned [[M24 SWS]] due to both using the action of the [[Remington Model 700]].

==Walther WA 2000==
The [[Walther WA 2000]] was added in Season 5 as the "Carrack .300". The model depicted is a hybrid of the first and second generation models, featuring the muzzle device of the former and stock design of the latter (with an added rear monopod). The "Carrack Palm" attachment adds the rifle's otherwise-missing palm rest. Like the game's M200 Intervention, the WA 2000 can deploy its integrated bipod through use of a barrel attachment. The “30" Flintline” barrel gives the rifle the second generation WA 2000 barrel length and flash hider, and likewise features a version with the bipod deployed. The rifle's scope comes in two variations, default having a flipped open lens cover (as in ''MW2''), while an unlockable version replaces this with a rubber eye piece (which provides a full-screen style view). As with all of the other default optics in the game, these can be equipped on other sniper rifles as well.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon, fitted with a laser sight for aiming. In certain events (the Shadow Siege limited-time event to name one), the weapon carries 200 rounds, which can be reloaded with unlimited spare ammo.

An unusable Minigun with a slotted flash hider can be found inside a building in the campaign mission "Kill or Capture".

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG. The "Icarus" name is likely derived from the manufacturer's original name "Ares;" as both are figures from Greek mythology.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment. It is also correctly depicted as a closed-bolt weapon, having no trigger delay compared to the open-bolt machine guns in the game.

In the campaign, it's correctly used by the Mexican Army.

A [[Vollmer HK51-B]] lookalike can be built with the short “10.6" Lachstrike Barrel.”

==IWI Negev NG7==
The [[IWI Negev NG7]] appears in-game as the "SAKIN MG38." It is relatively uncommon in the story, though one is present in the bed of Price's truck during "Violence and Timing."

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] is available in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants. Originally, when equipping the RPK's unique bipod attachment (which simply deploys the bipod) the gun would also gain an unnecessary picatinny rail under the handguard (presumably due to being in the underbarrel slot, like foregrips), however this was fixed with the Season 3 Reloaded update.
[[File:AES 10B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Century Arms AES 10B - 7.62x39mm. This is a US import version of the Romanian PM md. 64]]
[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

==SIG-Sauer MG 338==
The [[SIG-Sauer MG 338]]'s 2020 prototype returns from ''Modern Warfare'', still named the "RAAL MG" (which stands for Reconnaissance Auxiliary Assault Lightweight Machine Gun). It uses essentially the same model from the previous game complete with the SIG-Sauer LMG-6.8 style stock and the A2 grip.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56", and is incorrectly depicted with an AUG A3's bolt release. It feeds by default from the same 60-round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however these seem to be non-STANAG/AUG-adapted as the magazines all don't have the cutout for the magazine catch to interface with. It can also equip a fictional non-STANAG polymer MAG5-100 as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.

=Launchers=
Having the underbarrel grenade launcher attached will replace the alternate firing mode (either semi-auto on most weapons or full-auto on some battle rifles) with the grenade launcher mode if available. Picking up a weapon with a UBGL attached or switching to it in the campaign designates the grenade launcher as the "M203", regardless of what model of grenade launcher actually is. The same applies to multiplayer, though it is referred to as "KL40-M2" (GP-25).

==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "STRELA-P".

A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK-103, AK-105, and Vepr-12, under the name "KL40-M2".

==Hybrid Flare Pistol==
A fictional hybrid flare pistol seemingly mostly based on the [[Orion Flare Gun]] (with the grips of the 12-gauge version, but sized more similarly to the 25mm variant, and with parts of both variants' color schemes), with elements of the [[Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V]] (namely the trigger guard and the rounding on the front of the frame), and an overhanging breech similar to the [[Webley & Scott No. 3 Mk. I]] is available in Warzone, where it is used to signal for the re-deployment of teammates.

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option for the "M4", M16, both MCX variants, "FTac Recon", RM277, and SR-25, under the name "SPW 40mm".

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake", and is available for the AUG A3, HK91, HK93, APC556, VHS-K2, and FAMAS Valorisé.

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign as the "REV G-80" (while in Spec Ops, Warzone Battle Royale, DMZ and multiplayer it's named "RGL-80"), firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980. It appears as a rare weapon during the Gun Game gamemode in multiplayer, although not available in other modes.

The AV-140 MSGL is given to Garrick in "Violence and Timing," and some MSGLs can be found in the watchtower at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the dubious ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
As with ''Modern Warfare'', the "Flash Grenade" in the game is a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]. Many of the playable operators are depicted with this grenade, either in a pouch or hanging from their webbing with elastic bands attached. Picking up the flashbang in the campaign incorrectly dubs it as the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]". Toggling the "Inverted Flash" option on in the game's settings will make the screen go black when flashed, as opposed to white in its original function.

==Mk.V CN Gas Grenade==

==M83 Smoke Grenade==
An [[M83 Smoke Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "Smoke Grenade". As with the M18 Smoke Grenade before, it is used to mark locations for some killstreaks/scorestreaks.
[[File:M87.JPG|thumb|none|150px|M83 TA smoke grenade]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
A fictionalized [[M67 Hand Grenade]] with a different fuse design resembling [[RGO/RGN fragmentation grenade|RGO/RGN]] is featured in the game as the "Frag Grenade". Picking up the frag grenade in the campaign refers to it as "M67 Frag".

==M18A1 Claymore==
A fictionalized [[M18A1 Claymore]] using tripod legs instead of fold-open scissor-legs is featured in the game as the "Claymore", once again using laser tripwire detonators.
[[File:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]

==Hybrid Bouncing Mine==
The "Proximity Mine" returns in ''MWII'' with an a similar albeit altered look from the first game. It resembles less of its real-life counterparts as with ''MW19''. It is accurately described as a "proximity-triggered explosive", as opposed to a "pressure-triggered" explosive in the previous installment.
[[File:Mwiiproxymineloadout.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Proxy Mine" in the loadout screen.]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==AGM-114 Hellfire==
Just like Modern Warfare 2019, the AGM-114 Hellfire missile appears on the AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter and a slightly fictionalized Hellfire is also a part of the "Cruise Missile" killstreak, parented to a Storm Shadow/AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon hybrid shell. These also appear to be mounted on the wing tips of the "Gunship" killstreak, which might explain the steerable 105mm rounds.

==Bushmaster M242 Chaingun==
What appears to be fictionalized [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]]s are mounted and used on the M2A4 Bradley IFV (formerly called Light Tank) armored vehicles. The model is carried over from Modern Warfare 2019 and description of the prior vehicle states that the cannon is chambered in 30mm. The "APC" (which appears to be a Boxer APC with the Stryker 30mm turret) also appears to mount the M242 Chaingun, chambered in 30mm.

==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun appears as the Sentry Gun killstreak in multiplayer; one of the few instances of the Sentry Gun not being some kind of a minigun in the series. A stockless M240 is used in the RWS turret atop the Merkava Mk.4 - CV90 "frankentank".

The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed fictional twin barrel [[M197 Vulcan]] turret, to fulfill the series' proud lineage of VTOL jets with swiveling gun turrets that hover around a vicinity and engage infantry targets.

A-10 Thunderbolt IIs return as the "Precision Airstrike" killstreak, performed with their [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] rotary cannons.
[[File:GAU-8 Avenger contrast.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger - 30x173mm]]

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D/E Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s, with some apparently having two at the same time. The double-M230 Apaches appear in the campaign missions "Kill or Capture" and "Ghost Team."

==M102 105mm Howitzer==
The returning psudo-AC-130 "Gunship" also mounts the [[M102 Howitzer|M102 105mm howitzer]]. This gun appears prominently in the pre-rendered cutscenes of the interior of the gunship in the "Close Air" and "Hardpoint" missions, but its functionality is replaced by AGM-114 Hellfire style missiles in gameplay.

==Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher==
A modified version of the [[Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher]] returns from ''MW2019'', this time mounted to the "MRAP" eight wheeled gun trucks added in Season 5. The weapon is controlled via a RWS turret during gameplay.

==Mk44 Bushmaster GAU-23/A==
The "Gunship"'s AC-130J-based loadout includes the Mk44 Bushmaster 30mm GAU-23/A gun. It functions akin the Bofors 40mm seen previously.

==Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B==
Mil Mi-24V "Hind" helicopters appear in ''MWII'' and feature the nose mounted [[Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B]] rotary cannons. Compared to the earlier games, the Mi-24 also correctly only has this chin gun, whereas unused 23/30mm twin GSh cannons were present in the original trilogy.

==Hybrid Reverse Draw Crossbow==
A slightly modified version of the reverse draw crossbow reappears from the previous game. It appears as a bonus weapon unlocked in safes in the missions "El Sin Nombre" and "Alone", and it is available in multiplayer as part of Season 2. It is unlocked by completing the unlock challenge or by buying a bundle in the store that has the blueprint available.

The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in the "Ghosting Everyone" loading screen and the "Shaded Ghost" calling card.

Additionally, a Kimber is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic Colt M1911-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

==STI Tactical==
Two unusable STI 2011 pistols resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire" outside the fish hatchery. It uses the model of the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911 Series#SIG-Sauer 1911 Traditional TACOPS|SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II''''' is the nineteenth installment in the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is a direct sequel to ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'', and it was released on October 28, 2022.

Like ''Modern Warfare 2019'', the game is comprised of four main modes: the traditional singleplayer campaign, multiplayer, Spec Ops and Warzone 2.0 with additional DMZ mode.

The singleplayer story is the continuation of ''Modern Warfare''’s storyline, following the newly-formed elite multinational Task Force 141 in their continuing fight against the terrorist organization Al-Qatala, who have formed an alliance with the deadly Las Almas drug cartel.

The multiplayer is the standard attraction of the ''Call of Duty'' franchise, along with PvE Spec Ops missions. A new submode to Spec Ops are Raids, which are multi-stage, high-risk high-reward episodic long levels mixed with cooperative combat and puzzle-solving. As of March 2023, "Atomgrad" is the only available Raid in the game, along with four episodes which take place after the events of ''Modern Warfare'' and by extension, some events of Warzone 1.0 before the release of ''Black Ops: Cold War''.

Following on the heels of ''Warzone'', '''''Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0''''' is a standalone free-to-play gamemode that expands upon the original mode with new features and new maps, with additional maps being added later seasons. In addition, Warzone 2.0 also includes the DMZ submode, an extraction-type PvPvE gamemode where players complete faction quests, scavenge for weapons and loots, fend off against enemy NPCs as well as players and exfiltrate the map alive, with no set objective.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II}}

__TOC__ 

=Overview=
The weapon system in ''Modern Warfare II'' is a modified version of the weapons and Gunsmith system found in ''Modern Warfare'', with a limit of five mod slots. Primary weapons are divided into seven types: submachine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, battle rifles (high damage, high recoil select-fire rifles with low capacity), marksman rifles (high damage, accurate, exclusively semi-auto/manually-operated rifles, with iron sights), light machine guns, and sniper rifles. Weapon inspection animations are more intricate than it was in ''Modern Warfare'', with the user often checking the magazine and/or chamber in each of the inspect animations. The current ammunition type (hollow points, incendiary rounds and the like) can also be seen. As of Season 1, inspect animations now correctly account for if the weapon is empty or not; this was not the case during the multiplayer beta and launch builds of the game.

Weapon reloads are now "staged", meaning if the player performs an action that would cancel a reload (as with previous entries), the reload animation will resume to its previous state until the magazine/last round is either inserted (for non-empty reloads) or when the weapon is chambered. Underbarrel grenade launcher reloads are not affected by this, however.

Reaching the maximum level of a weapon unlocks Weapon Tuning, wherein the player can finetune various attachments to be slightly better at one statistic at the cost of another. Various store blueprints come with predetermined "pro-tuned" attachments; in which the player cannot modify. Pro-tuned attachments are reset if the player modifies their attachments or its tuning.

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments. It is possible to create a loadout with two similar weapons with marginally different stats, such as having the AUG A3 and AUG HBAR variant in the same loadout, with similar attachment setups. Post-release weapons in existing weapon platforms are not unlocked by progressing the specific weapon level required, as those are completed through various tasks instead.

The current Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* ISO Platform (B&T APC family)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Sakin G Series (Desert Eagle variants)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

Through the use of grip attachments, the "Pistol Fastdraw" benefit (previously known as "Tactical Pistol Raise") introduced in ''MWII'' is the ability to instantly draw the player's sidearm without fully lowering their primary weapon. Dual-wielding makes a return in ''Modern Warfare II'', although it is regulated to the grip attachment of the weapon instead of being a weapon perk and it's only restricted to handguns exclusively (including TEC-9 hybrid machine pistol).

Various executions (finishing moves) that use a firearm in this game now involve other weapon types, in addition to a pistol unlike in prior games. If the player has a weapon of the same class (assault rifle, SMG, etc) as a given execution's default weapon, the player's custom weapon will be featured instead.

''Modern Warfare II'' introduces extensive and realistic water physics, a significant improvement over ''Black Ops: Cold War'', the previous game in the series to feature water mechanics. Unlike in ''Cold War'', primary weapons can't be fired underwater and only handguns can, albeit with a reduced efficiency. Shooting into water and explosions cause ripples and mines float when thrown onto water. When swimming on the surface, water flows into the weapon's details and the weapon along with its user can get wet.

Weapon and inventory management in Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale is similar to its previous iteration, where in players are airdropped with weak weapons, scavenge weapons all over the game world and procure their own loadout weapons in a supply drop. DMZ on the other hand is similar to "extraction" games of a similar fashion. The player is given three insured weapon slots (one available at the start, the other two require metagame upgrades), which the player can customize and they do not get lost if they leave it in the game world (should the player die or exchange for a new weapon, even if the enemy picks up the weapon), though it has a cooldown which can be decreased by successful extractions, through upgrades, through certain in-game weapon blueprints (that are obtained through bundles) or by submitting items into a "dead drop" (which is an interactable dumpster) in certain locations of the map. In addition, the player has a number of temporary "contraband" weapon slots which are the weapons brought by the player upon a successful extraction. These weapons will be lost if they are dropped, although they can be destroyed in the game's lobby to free up space for more contraband weapons. Firearms can be customized in a Workbench while on a raid, albeit with a fee of credits obtained throughout the round and a limited selection of attachments.

As before, weapons in both Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale and DMZ can be acquired through enemies (either NPC bots or player operatives) or through various loot containers all over the map; contraband weapons from DMZ can also be obtained by completing various faction missions. Also, if the player extracts with a weapon that they haven't unlocked yet, the weapon will be immediately unlocked for free without the player level or weapon platform requirement.

The method of unlocking cosmetic camouflages was overhauled in ''MWII'' compared to its predecessors. Every weapon has four unique camouflages (with only one unique camo for every launcher), each with their easy challenges in order to unlock them. Once the specific camo is unlocked, it can be used in every weapon available, streamlining the process of the camo grind from previous games. Unlocking all base camouflages for the current weapon allows the player to progress through the mastery camo challenges.

=Handguns=
==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] returns as the ".50 GS" and is said to be manufactured by Sakin ("Sakin" meaning "Knife" in Hebrew, alluding to the knife in the logo of IMI/IWI). The new model is a bit more stylized and features Picatinny rails on the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, a skeletonized hammer, and has a two-tone finish that is basically the reverse of the Desert Eagle in the original ''[[Modern Warfare 2]]''; the ''MW2'' pistol had a chrome frame and trigger, while the ''MWII'' pistol has a chrome slide, barrel, and hammer. It is frequently used by Las Almas cartel members.

The standard magazine capacity is of 7 rounds, but extended baseplates that take the capacity to 10 or 13 rounds are available. The weapon can be modified with a ported barrel via the "SA Comp Barrel".

=="GS Magna"==
A Desert Eagle modified (presumably by cartel members) to fire full-auto based on the "Thunderbird" Desert Eagle made by YouTuber Mr.Wilk was added as a separate weapon in Season 3 Reloaded, as the "GS Magna". Aesthetically, the pistols differs from the game's standard Desert Eagle by featuring a ported barrel, different grip texture, a tan/bronze-like finish, and different markings. In gameplay terms, it cannot equip lasers/lights or trigger attachments, but can instead use vertical foregrips.

==Glock 17 MOS==
The "X12", manufactured by the in-game XRK, is a stylized [[Glock 17|Glock 17 MOS]]. It is based on a 5th generation version with front slide serrations, though it is depicted with two pins above the trigger like the Gen 3 and Gen 4 models (as opposed to one pin for the Gen 5). It's equipped with a plate system to mount red dots, just like the real Glock MOS System and many of its stylized parts include the rounded bottom beaver-tail, the MIL-STD 19-13 rail, the hinged trigger (which turns into a more Glock-style one with some customization options), a small port on top of the slide just rear of the front sight and the grip texture.

It can be fitted with a Flux Defense Brace, called "XRK Pistol Stock". It feeds by default from Magpul 17 round Glock magazines with a grey follower, a +7 extended baseplate that changes the follower color to orange, a 33-round stick magazine stylized to look like a Kriss MagEx2 (that's supposed to hold 40 rounds) and a Magpul PMAG D-50 GL9 50 round drum magazine. The same options are available for the Glock 18.

Judging by the square hole in the pistol's frame, where a QR code is painted out, the XRK pistol platform seems to be modular just like the [[SIG-Sauer P320]] or the ZEV OZ-9.

It is frequently used by Las Almas Cartel members, Soap, Rodolfo and Russian Konni PMCs in the campaign. Glocks are also seen in many character's holsters, including Ghost and Alejandro.

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", as part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and ''MW19''’s "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

In the campaign it's seen used by Russian PMCs and the Mexican Army (which is inaccurate, as the latter are issued the [[Beretta 92FS]] or the [[SIG-Sauer P226]]).

Or maybe it's just a safety and the gun is full-auto only, as it cannot be switched to semi-auto in gameplay.]]
[[File:Mw 22 x13 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another small change from the X12 are the standard iron sights, which now have a green front post.]]

===Glock 18 (in carbine conversion kit)===
Using the "Impact Point" barrel attachment places the X13 inside a carbine conversion kit. The kit resembles the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]] with its compact size and AR-15 style T-handle.

===Glock 18 (3D printed)===
3D printed Glock pistols appear in the hands of terrorists in the post-credits scene. A complete version of this cutscene also appears in the sequel, ''Modern Warfare III''. The pistols are likely based on the "X13 Auto" model, as they feature a selector switch on the right side of the slide.

In the scene, a terrorist assembles a 3D printed Glock pistol in a plane cabin mid-flight by smuggling individual gun components onto the plane separately. The individual parts shown include a metal firing pin (hidden in the safety belt buckle), a metal barrel (hidden in a flashlight), a trigger (disguised in a necklace), a polymer slide and a polymer frame (both hidden on the person), and a metal magazine with ammunition (hidden underneath a plate cloche).

Though dramatic, the scene is logistically unrealistic, as disassembled firearm components likely still would've been detected by airport security, and the insider collaboration required for hiding the gun parts on the plane in the first place likely would've also allowed for a full gun to be smuggled. Additionally, the metal parts shown would be insufficient to assemble a functional gun - while 3D-printed Glock frames do exist, they use metal fire control parts, metal springs, metal locking blocks inserted into the frame, and (perhaps most crucially) metal slides.

The whole thing might have been inspired by videos such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4dBuPJ9p7A story by VICE about printing a Glock], though, even that particular video shows the complexities involved with the assembly.
[[File:Mwii3dglock1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The terrorist places individual parts on his tray table.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
A [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. At launch, the trigger was not animated during the decocking sequence, though this has since been patched. When using the double-action-only trigger group, the trigger is still incorrectly in the more rearward single action position, however. It feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

Like the two Glock variants, the P220 features a slide equipped with a cut for micro red dot optics (that mount directly onto the slide, instead of having different plates between the slide and the optic, which would mean that either all the MRDs in the game share the same mounting system or the cut is universal), a feature not available out of the box on the real SIG.

It seems to be a favorite of various members of TF 141 and US MARSOC in "Kill or Capture" are seen with the pistols in their holsters instead of the more fitting M45A1 or the Glock 19 (which could have been made as the X14 in-game).

===SIG-Sauer P220 X-Six===
Fitting the P220 with the "Matuzek Cottonmouth Barrel" (which is stated to be 140mm long, while the X-Six's is 153mm long), the "Bruen RSH-80 Grip" and the "XRX Heavy V3" trigger group will make it somewhat resemble the P220 X-Six, retaining the double-action trigger mechanism and black standard frame.

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] appears as the "Basilisk" (or "Centum 5" in pre-release). The barrel appears to be somewhere between the 4 and 8 inch barrel options for the real Model 500, most likely 6 inches. Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]''’s Taurus Raging Hunter, unfired rounds in the chamber are retained while reloading. Having the "Fast Reload" perk or "Akimbo" attachment omits retaining rounds entirely, but keeps it in the player's ammunition pool.

The primers will always appear as intact, however.]]

==Staccato P==
The [[STI 1911 Series|Staccato P]] was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "9mm Daemon". Its default magazine holds 15 rounds (the real Staccato mag holds 17), options for 20 and 26 round magazines are also available. The gun can be extensively customized with parts inspired by various custom 2011 gunmakers. A barrel option gives the Daemon a frame mounted red dot, charging handle and a competition slide with a compensator, a setup commonly found on IPSC Open race guns; this slide also changes the equip/first-draw animation from a twirl followed by chambering the pistol, to simply chambering the pistol using the charging handle. A first in the series, the gun can be fitted with a magwell (in the Grip slot), which negates the need for the Sleight of Hand perk and makes the gun reload faster by default. When drawing and holstering the pistol, the manual thumb safety is used, although in a bit of a dramatic way when it comes to stowing away the weapon.
The gun has very high hip-fire accuracy, suggested by how close the operator holds it, in a Central Axis Relock manner, it manages to have very low recoil, even less than the Glock 17, which has virtually none, and a fast fire rate by default, overall a great 9mm secondary.

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with a traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear and as capable of being chambered from empty with the existing bolt release, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle (that can be changed to the left with the bolt release removed from the lower receiver) and no automatic bolt hold open, though it can be manually locked to the rear using the existing lower's bolt release lever. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system, probably based on the Gen 2 handguard (although the Gen 2 handguard is still a quad-rail design with cooling slits, not a proper M-LOK design) or the new M-LOK ULT rails on current production models (though seeming to lack the QD cup and dedicated 1913 picatinny rails on the bottom which would negate the ability to put the adapters that are there that are on the model). It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock (which would not be possible on the real gun as the stock requires a shortened proprietary combined bolt carrier + buffer to use) and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

On a related note, it is not the first time that the AR-57 was conceived into the ''Call of Duty'' series, as it was planned to be added in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' as a [[Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops II#AR-57|usable weapon]]. It was however, eventually replaced by a [[Call of Duty: Black Ops II#"PDW-57"|fictional variant]] of the P90 before the game's release.

==Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC45|Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO]] was added in Season 4 as the "ISO 45". It retains some of the animations of the previous "ISO" submachine gun in ''Modern Warfare 2019''. It is also stylized similarly to it, including the upper receiver being extended to the rear (albeit not as much as its ''MW19'' counterpart). By default, it is modeled with the "FTAC 225mm Dominator" barrel from ''Modern Warfare'', which is an extended barrel of intermediate length between the APC45/APC9 and the APC9-P. It can be modified to resemble an APC45 SD with the “16" XLB-S” barrel, or an APC9 K with the “4" Frame S-1” barrel and "SK-3 Cheetah" stock.

==FN P90 TR==
A stylized [[FN P90 TR]] (inspired by some blueprints from ''Modern Warfare'' with the grip design based on that of the [[Magpul PDR-C]]) appears as the "PDSW 528" as part of the Tactique Defense platform. The "528" designation is an abridgement of its '''5'''.7x'''28'''mm caliber. The stylized magazine from those blueprints is now transparent, and tracks the feeding ammunition. The P90 TR can be turned into a regular P90 with its integrated optic, however unlike ''MW19'' this attachment isn't in the Optic category, but rather a new "Rail" category that allows for three different upper receivers: The (stylized) P90 TR upper by default, the P90 upper with optic, or the aftermarket EFFEN 90 upper with a tiny low profile rail. Equipping the integrated optic upper blocks use the optics attachment category. The longer-than-normal barrel can be returned to its proper length with the “9.5" Duke-30” barrel attachment.

It only fires in full auto in-game; the selector functionality is absent.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3==
The "Lachmann Sub" is a [[Heckler & Koch HK94A3]] chopped and converted to resemble an [[MP5A5]]. The giveaway is that, along with other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform (which is clearly supposed to represent the Heckler & Koch roller-delayed family of weapons), it lacks a paddle magazine release, leaving only the (extended) button release. The game's HK94 has a 3-round burst trigger group installed, as well as an MP5's barrel with attachment lugs. Curiously enough, the trigger group lacks a semi-auto position; accordingly, the weapon can be switched between full-auto and three-round burst during gameplay, but not semi-auto. The in-game weapon also sports a strange cylindrical charging handle that differs from the other weapons in its family.
15, 30 (the default one) and 40 round metal magazines are available, along with a 50 round drum inspired by the Magpul PMAG D-50 MP.

The "Lachmann Pulsar" barrel attachment gives it a short barrel approximating that of an [[MP5K]]. The "LM Cronus Grip" gives it the same [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group as the one seen on ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s MP5 blueprints, with the triangular parts still facing the wrong directions, but this time the selector markings are "S-3-F".

The HK94A3 is mostly used by the Las Almas Cartel and Colonel Vargas' "Los Vaqueros" federal special forces unit in the campaign story.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (with integral suppressor)==
An integrally suppressed version of the aforementioned HK94A3 (intended to pass for an [[MP5SD]]) was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "Lachmann Shroud". In contrast to its unsuppressed counterpart, it lacks a full-auto option, and is instead fitted with a safe/semi-auto/3-round burst trigger group.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A2==
A fictionalized [[Heckler & Koch MP7A2]] appears as the "VEL 46" as part of the LMP platform.
It feeds from 40 round magazines by default, and 30 round stylized magazines, a fictional quadstack 50 rounder and 60 round drum are available to extend the gun's capacity.

==Interdynamic KG-9 / Intratec TEC-9 hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[Interdynamic KG-9]] and the [[Intratec TEC-9]] was added to the handguns class in Season 3 Reloaded as the "FTAC Siege". The weapon has four upper receiver options, most of which have sub-options as well. The standard upper receiver also comes in an extended barrel variant ("Ratchet BE"), an extended barrel and barrel shroud variant ("SuperTac-VI"), and an integrally suppressed variant ("Ratchet BE Tac"). An upper based on the TEC-9 Mini ("Mouse 99") is also available, which blocks the use of grips, optics, and lasers due to its small size. A much longer upper with angled shroud holes comes in standard ("CMRN-50") and integrally suppressed ("NST-81", previously known as "STF-U") variations, and a lightweight upper with rectangular holes and entirely different iron sights are also options.

The gun can equip the wire stock and foregrip of the KG-9's full-auto sibling, the MP-9. Other stock and grip options are available, including an angled metal foregrip highly reminiscent of the [[Beretta 93R]]. A unique thread-on suppressor is also available, and the SMG feeds from 32-round mags, 20-round mags, 50-round drums, or 72-round drums. As of Season 4, it can be dual-wielded, and uniquely, it features an on-screen reload animation when reloading the weapon while akimbo; though it is not the first game that does this, ''[[Call of Duty 2: Big Red One]]'' and ''Call of Duty: Mobile'' both feature such akimbo reload animations for pistols and the Vector respectively.

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", which is still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver and once again has a massively shrunk-down Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for, thus resulting in the weapon having actual muzzle rise. As with the P220 pistol, killing opponents with the Vector will hide death skull indicators with its subsonic .45 ammunition.

The default magazines for the Fennec are KRISS MagEx2's with a 30 round capacity. The two other magazine options are a 13-round Glock 21 magazine underloaded to 12 rounds (it actually does have one less witness hole, a very nice detail) which converts the Fennec to 2-round burst, and a Magpul D-50 9mm Glock drum magazine adapted to .45 ACP and with a 45 round capacity.

The weapon has an extended barrel and handguard, the former similar in length to the 8" export model only available in Ukraine, and the latter seemingly inspired by the KRISS MK1 Modular Rail. Barrel customization options include the “5.5" Fennec Minitac” (a standard Vector's 5.5" barrel), “FTac 8.5" Recon” (actually a 6.5" barrel with a stylized MK5 Modular Rail), and "Fennec Covert Force" (a barrel shroud based on a Vector CRB Enhanced, depicted as an integral suppressor in-game).

Stock options include the "Agile Assault-7 Stock" (based on the early TDI Vector prototype stock) and the "FTac Stock Cap" (a Vector SDP's quick-detach sling swivel).

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[PP-19 Bizon-2]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "Minibak", now with a more correctly modeled receiver, forend and stock. It still uses the earlier Bizon-1's 64-round helical magazine by default, but this time with the magazine front attachment point of the Bizon-2.

==PP-19-01 Vityaz==
The [[PP-19-01 Vityaz]] appears as the "Vaznev-9K". It is fitted with a railed AK-100 series polymer style forend. Prior to the Season 1 update, the Vityaz could not accept any underbarrel accessories in multiplayer. Vityazs with underbarrel grips can be found in the Campaign in the hands of Al-Qatala and Russian PMCs.

In addition to the standard 30-round stick mag the gun feeds from by default, the Vityaz can accept fictional quad-stack 45-round magazines. It can also be modified with a [[Saiga 9]]'s 367mm barrel via the "SA Response III" barrel attachment.

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1. It is part of the "Bruen Ops" platform, suggesting that the in-game manufacturer Bruen (which also manufactures the Bruen Bullpup/AUG platform) is a mishmash of SIG and Steyr.

The optional barrels are the following: “12" Bruen SZ-36” (a fictional-length barrel with an M-LOK handguard that looks like a Midwest Industries / Samson Manufacturing hybrid), “10.5" Bruen Typhon” (an integrally suppressed barrel with an MPX Gen 1 style handguard), “6.5" Bruen Drake” (a 6.5" barrel with a factory MPX-style M-LOK handguard), and “4" Thunderfire” (an [[SIG-Sauer MPX K|MPX K]]'s 4.5" barrel).

The "Battle Worn" blueprint, Alejandro's customized MPX from the campaign, was made unlockable for multiplayer during a time-limited event in Season 5. This blueprint's add-on flaired magwell and titanium nitride-coated bolt also make it ideal for a [[John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum|''John Wick'']] build, something likely intentional on the developers' part given how specific a combination this is.

=Shotguns=
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12." It is used by Shadow Company and Task Force 141 members in the story.

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel, longer competition-style magazine tube, railed and slim forends and a variety of stock options including a field stock option, collapsed and extended stock and a fixed pistol grip stock combination. Interestingly, it is capable of firing Dragon's Breath shells with no issues; while the M4 can fire such shells, they have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds, as such they require manual cycling.

The "Bryson Reverb-55 Stock" gives it a fixed stock similar to Magpul shotgun stocks, and the "419mm Schlager Salvo" and "FSS Frame Stock" are resemble the forend and stock of the pump-action [[FABARM STF 12]].

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story and DMZ. The shotgun received a dual trigger attachment option with Season 6, allowing the player character to fire both barrels simultaneously. To help balance the need to reload after every trigger pull with this attachment, the player character will slide in both shells in simultaneously, as opposed to one after the other in the normal empty reload.

===Side by Side Shotgun===
The "Super Shotgun" blueprint from the DOOM bundle is a [[Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun|sawed-off side by side shotgun]]. As the entire weapon model is replaced, its attachments cannot be customized, though it should be noted that it's statistically identical to the Citori. One of its attachments is the double trigger, added just before this bundle and clearly specifically created to allow the Super Shotgun to function as it should. Faithful to its [[Doom (VG)|source material]], the entire shotgun is animated with the same jittery style as the original DOOM Super Shotgun as opposed to standard interpolation animation used in other weapons, although the animations revert to standard, albeit currently bugged, Citori animations when a camo is applied. Other changes include the original red muzzle flash, its sway pattern, and sound.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube. The updated empty inspect animation even shows correct operation for a Benelli-style semi-automatic shotgun, showing the bolt carrier moving freely without locking back until the operator dry-fires the shotgun and racks it back, causing it to lock open. A Dragon's Breath-equipped model has also been introduced into the game with the release of Season 5 under the name "Corvus Torch".

==IWI Tavor TS12==
The [[IWI Tavor TS12]] was added in Season 4 Reloaded as the "MX Guardian". Unlike its real-life counterpart, the TS12 in-game effectively functions as a shotgun Bizon, sporting a detachable helical/prism magazine instead of the triple 5-round tube cluster of the real life version. Thus, upon reloading, the user simply swaps out the magazine instead of inserting individual shells. The TS12 is also fully automatic by default, with semi-automatic and two-round burst fire trigger packs (probably to simulate a binary trigger) as attachments, unlike the real TS12, which comes in semi-automatic by default (of course with the possibility of homemade trigger packs). Prior to the Season 5 update, the shotgun's in-game description described it as having the real version's three separate rotating magazine tubes.

==Molot Vepr-12==
The [[Vepr-12]] was added in Season 2 as the "KV Broadside", an addition to the "Kastovia" platform. It feeds from 8-round magazines, with the option for 12-rounders or 25-round drums, though curiously it cannot use its smaller 5-round mags, despite them already being in the game (used by the Mossberg 590M). Along with being fitted with a left side charging handle modification, the shotgun's bolt will lock open when empty when using either stick magazine, but does not lock back when using the drum. The Vepr is the first weapon outside of the Assault Rifle and Battle Rifle classes able to mount underbarrel weapons, both the GP-25 and (rather amusingly) the underbarrel shotgun. It can be loaded with Dragon's Breath incendiary shells, though as with the Benelli M4 above, low-powered rounds would make the weapon's usage unfeasible because of the weapon's self-loading nature. It is not an issue when used in-game, though. A custom Vepr-12 firing incendiary shells is the weapon of choice of the Pyro DMZ boss, along with a riot shield.

As a post-release weapon, it can either be permanently unlocked by completing its challenge, purchasing by a store bundle that has the weapon, or by extracting the weapon in DMZ mode.

==Mossberg 590==
The [[Mossberg 590]] appears as the "Bryson 800". Unlike the previous ''Modern Warfare''’s pump-action shotguns, this weapon is chamber-loaded upon running empty, a rare instance in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise.

===Serbu Super Shorty===
Equipping the “8" XRK CQB Barrel” and the "Stockless Pistol Grip" via Gunsmith converts the "Bryson 800" into a [[Serbu Super Shorty]].

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files (which did eventually come to the game in Season 2), and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (5, 8, and 12).

A Los Vaqueros operative uses the 590M to breach a door in the "Cartel Protection" mission.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AK-103==
The [[AK-103]] appears as the "Kastov 762". The "Kastov" label implies that the rifle was developed in the fictional country of Kastovia from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]''. Magazine options include the standard 30-round polymer mag, and 20 or 40 round steel magazines.

The weapon can be modified with an [[AKM]]'s gas block and wooden handguard via the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel attachment, as well as AKM's stock via the "Ivanov Wood Stock", while retaining the AK-103's front sight block, smooth dust cover, and folding stock hardware on the left side of the receiver. It can also be fitted with an [[AKMS]]'s underfolding stock via the "Prolite TL3 Stock". Some of these combinations can be found in the campaign. The "Cursed" blueprint from Season 3 "features" a removed dust cover, which showcases the AK's bolt.

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty.

The default magazines are tan 30-rounders (6L23) and alternative options include 20-round black polymer mags, a 45-round classic red 6L18 magazine and a 60-round quad-stack black magazine (6L31).

===AKS-74N===
The rifle can be turned into a pseudo [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. This is achieved by pairing the "Kastov-Rama" stock with either the "Kastovia 406" barrel (which has a synthetic handguard) or the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel (which has a wooden handguard, along with an earlier AKM's 62 degree gas block and slant brake). The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, previously including the impossible reloading technique without the stock. As of the Season 2 update, the gun instead has a unique empty reload animation when lacking a stock, in which the player character holds the gun sideways, knocks out the old mag with the new one (held "upside down" in their hand), then rocks it in and performs and underhand pull of the bolt, similar to the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'' 's [[AN-94]].

The loadout and progression menu images show it with a polymer 7.62x39mm magazine, though an [[AKMSU]] conversion or separate weapon does not appear in the released game. At the moment the gun uses black polymer 30 round magazines (6L23) by default, 20 rounders serve as fast mags, and the same 45 round magazine available from the AK-105 (6L18) serves as the only extended option.

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks. It is a common weapon from Al-Qatala NPC forces in Al Mazrah in DMZ.

==Brügger & Thomet APC556==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC556]] was added in Season 2, as the "ISO Hemlock". The rifle is part of the "ISO" platform, connecting the APC556 to its smaller sibling, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9]]/"ISO" from ''MW19''. It also shares similar Magpul MBUS styled iron sights.

The game files refer to the weapon as "ar_acharlie300", alluding to the APC300 variant. In addition, the ejection port is marked "Cal. 7.62x35mm" (i.e. .300 AAC Blackout), and the handguard is an elongated version of the one seen on the APC300 and early versions of the APC556 PDW (interestingly, the rifle in-game is a normal APC556/300 upper receiver on a Pro lower receiver, shown by its ability to change pistol grips). Conversely, the gas system is of APC556-esque length. The weapon is chambered in the APC556's 5.56x45mm cartridge by default, and can be modified to use the APC300's .300 Blackout ammunition.

Being a post-release weapon, the APC556 is unlocked either through store bundles, DMZ or challenge unlock.

==Colt Model 901==
The [[M16A4|Colt Model 901]] (which was marketed as an M16A3) appears in the game as the "M16". It fires in three-round bursts, meaning it is intended to pass for an M16A4, but the fire selector has the Safe/Semi/Auto markings of the A3 rather than the A4's Safe/Semi/Burst. It is fitted with a KAC M5 railed handguard and feeds from the same stylized windowed PMAGs used with the "M4". Along with the two extended magazine options available for the "M4", the M16 can also use short 20-round GI magazines that hold 15 rounds for some reason (maybe because 20 isn't a multiple of 3 or to align it with the same magazine option seen on the HK93, which also is a 20 rounder limited to a capacity of 15).

A properly functioning R0901-style rifle can also be achieved by modifying the "M4" mentioned below, although keeping the non-milspec upper and lower receiver.

Numerous factions in the campaign use the Model 901 M16 rifle, including Al-Qatala, the Las Almas Cartel, and the Mexican Army.

Note the "M16A2" markings on the magwell, which (intentionally or not) would be correct for an M16A3, as the receiver of the real weapon is indeed marked as such.]]

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).

===Mk 18 Mod 1===
Fitting the M16 with the "11.5 T-H4 Barrel" and any telescoping stock will create a Mk 18 Mod 1.

===M4A1 Carbine===
The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight, turning it into an [[M4A1]] (or an [[M4 Carbine|M4]] in gameplay terms).

==FAMAS Valorisé==
The [[FAMAS Valorisé]] was added in Season 5 under the name "FR Avancer", though the markings on its model read "Modèle 223". As with every other FAMAS in ''Call of Duty'' thus far the rifle features 25-round magazines; for the second time in the series they actually hold the correct 25 rounds, rather than 30. 45- and 60-round quad-stack magazines are available alternate options, with the former being the "chopped" MAG5-60 quad-stack model seen on Instagram and in the previous Modern Warfare game. Also as in ''MW19'', the rifle's integrated bipod can be deployed as an attachment (though currently this also unnecessarily equips a rail under the handguard, as was the case for the RPK's bipod before that was fixed), while equipping the "SA Ion" pistol grip and "FR Sprinter" stock pad brings the rifle closer in appearance to its real world counterpart.

A pseudo FAMAS FÉLIN build can be achieved by adding the "3x RFL-Optic" and "OP-X9 Foregrip" to the aforementioned pistol grip and stock.

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50-round drum, are available as extended options. Interestingly, the rifle features its internal file name in its receiver markings, placed as if "SCHotel" is its in-universe model name; following the standards of internal file names, "S C Hotel" naturally stands for "'''SC'''AR-'''H'''". This time, it is correctly classified as a battle rifle instead of an assault rifle.

[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the gunsmith preview screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19''’s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a rail extension and a fixed stock resembling an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S stock or a KRG SCAR Long Range Stock. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story. 10-, 15- and 20-round magazines are available, all of which being 5-rounds-underloaded compared to real life.

It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor. At the time of the game's release, the real SCAR 17S could be converted to use this cartridge (while the SCAR 20S had received that caliber as a factory option). Interestingly, a year later (September 2023), FN America announced the availability of a limited-edition SCAR 17S DMR that is actually chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor and has a fixed SSR stock.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver. It feeds from black STANAG style 30-round magazines, but 40-round PMAGs and 60-round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

It comes with a (swappable) stylized A2 grip by default and the magazine release on the right side seems to be an aftermarket extended one.

Marines in "Kill or Capture" have SCAR-Ls. It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

===FN SCAR-L CQC===
Equipping the SCAR-L with the "12' Tacshort Barrel" will give it a CQC-length barrel.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A2==
A [[Heckler & Koch HK91A2]] with a safe/semi/auto select fire trigger group appears as the "Lachmann-762". Like the other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform, it lacks a paddle magazine release, distinguishing it from the military [[G3]]. It appears to be fitted with a stylized slimline handguard.

It is a standard rifle of the Mexican Army in-game.

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===

==Heckler & Koch HK93A2==
A shortened [[Heckler & Koch HK93A2]] with a Magpul-inspired trigger group with safe/semi/auto positions appears as the "Lachmann-556". Once again, the lack of a paddle magazine release distinguishes it from the military [[HK33]].

It is intended to be an [[HK53]], as evidenced by the game files referring to it as "ar_kilo53", though the barrel and the cocking tube are slightly longer than this version, with the length being between the HK53 and the HK33KA3. It can be made HK33-length with the "Lachmann Nova" or "LM Aurora 90 Barrel" attachments (these two having same cocking tube length as each other, and almost the same barrel length), or HK33K-esque length (shorter than proper, but longer than the game's default) with the "Lach-12 Barrel".

It feeds from translucent 30-round magazines by default, but it can also use 20-round magazines (that hold 15 rounds), 40-round extended magazines or a 60-round drum inspired by the X-Products drum available for the G3 family of rifles.

[[File:Hk93 mw22 (8).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with all the roller-delayed guns in the game, the tactical reload starts by locking the bolt back, then the magazines are swapped and the charging handle is given a gentle tug to let it go forward.

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done; this was fixed sometime after the Season 1 update. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

==HS Produkt VHS-K2==
A heavily stylized [[HS Produkt VHS-K2]] with a Springfield Armory Hellion-style trigger guard and pistol grip was added in Season 4 as the "Tempus Razorback." The top rail assembly resembles that of the [[FB MSBS Grot|FB MSBS Grot B]] (alongside the "TA ERGO" stock option), and the charging handle is also similar to the Grot B's, though moved forward over the fire control area. The rifle can equip the VHS-2's integral optic carry handle, tied to the "17" IO-XL" barrel attachment; this barrel is longer than standard, roughly between the VHS-K2 and VHS-D2. The "13" Frenzy IX" barrel features a shorter optics rail as well as a unique red dot sight which replaces the ironsights; this sight can itself be replaced by other optics. The default empty reload animation has an interesting dynamic feature - normally, the charging handle is used, but interrupting it by swapping or sprinting will result in the operator using the bolt release after the interruption.

==LoneStar Future Weapons RM277==
A [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based bullpup rifle was added to the battle rifles class in Season 3 under the name "Cronen Squall". It is depicted as a heavily stylized version of the first prototype, noticeable by having a rear magazine release. However, it also has two buttons near the trigger group that act as bolt release buttons instead of magazine release buttons, a black cheek rest, switchable ejection ports and an enlarged rear similar to that of the [[Desert Tech Micro Dynamic Rifle]]. It is chambered in "6.8 Wrath", an in-universe version of 6.8x51mm SIG FURY, which is the cartridge of the [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] (now designated as the XM7) that prevailed over the RM277 in the NGSW trials.

The gun uses conventional full brass case ammo like the civilian/training ammo by default but a 6.8 Composite ammo option is also available, bringing it back to the original 6.8mm TVCM cartridge that the RM277 was chambered in. Beside that, Frangible and Hollowpoint ammo options give the 6.8mm SIG FURY cartridge its well-known hybrid case (these options are correct as currently, available hybrid-case ammo to the civilian market is those two options). It is fed by default using 20-round L7 AWM magazines with a 30-rounder and a 50-round Magpul D-50 drum magazine also available; the rifle can also equip its proprietary micro flow-through Brevis III suppressor.

While the real rifle fires from a closed bolt in semi-auto and an open bolt in full-auto, its in-game incarnation is depicted as always firing from an open bolt (with the same firing delay given to all other open bolt weapons), though inconsistent with this, the empty reload animation features the player character using the bolt release as if the rifle were firing from a closed bolt. The out-of-ammo inspect animation is also consistent with the gun always being open bolt, beginning with the trigger being pulled to dry-fire the rifle. In order for the rifle to at least be internally consistent to its fictional always-open-bolt self, the empty reload animation should instead not use the bolt release, and simply swap mags like a non-empty reload.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12.5" barrel appears as the "M4", based on the [[Geissele Super Duty|Geissele M4A1 URG-I]] (also informally known as the M4A1 "Block III") used by USASOC and even some Navy SEAL operators. The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard depicted with an 11.5" length, a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40-round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine plastic handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight with an added rail underneath and a small section of picatinny rail mounted on the right side of the gas block, essentially turning it into a pseudo-[[M4A1]]. The “Tempus High Tower 20" Barrel” attachment gives it a KAC M5 RAS/20" barrel/AR front sight, making it into a pseudo-[[M16A3]] when combined with the "Demo Precision Elite Factory" stock. Pairing this barrel with an M203 automatically swaps the rail system for the classic M203 heatshield, previously its own separate attachment in ''MW19''; this also happens on the game's M16, which features this barrel attachment by default.

Other barrel options include the “7.5" Tempus Firebrand”, the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16-inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the “11.5" T-H4 Barrel”, which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18/RIS II rail and a 10.3-inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament, which is the in-universe version of Knight's Armament Company based on the knight armored glove and mace logo.

==="Flatline"===
The same futuristic VLTOR/Magpul themed M4A1 Carbine from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare|Infinite Warfare]]'' appears as the "Flatline" blueprint available for the in-game M4, named after the Epic rarity variant of the same name for the fictional "NV4" assault rifle (although not modeled after the actual variant that appears in that game). While both of the upper and lower receivers are retained, the handguard and sights are not and the muzzle, magazine, and stock are modeled after the ''MWII''’s variant instead, albeit rethemed to better match the NV4 itself.

[[File:MW22 M4 Flatline 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle in-game, though .458 SOCOM is more of an oversized intermediate cartridge.

The rifle appears to be built on an otherwise generic milspec M16 lower, a la the default "M4" in-game, but with aesthetic similarities to the "XRK M4" from ''Modern Warfare'' (based on a Radian Weapons receiver) on the left side around the magazine well. The left side of the upper receiver bears a vague resemblance to a Mega Arms GTR-3H with grooves similar to the JP Enterprises CTR-02, but with said grooves cut in the opposite direction; the right side appears to be based on a Wilson Combat Stripped Billet AR-15 upper or a CMMG MkW-15 upper.

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10-round magazines.

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classified as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an 18" Mk 14 EBR barrel by default, and can be modified with a standard M14's barrel via the “22" Factory Fourteen Barrel” option, as well as a “16" Chrome-Lined RFX40 Barrel” similar to the SOCOM 16. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options. All box magazine options for both M14s are loaded with 5 rounds less than their real capacities a la the faux SCAR Mk 20 in the game.

==M14 (in Sage EBR chassis)==
The marksman rifle-classed "EBR-14" returns from the previous game, this time setup akin an M14 in a Sage EBR chassis. It can be identified as such by the 22" barrel and the select-fire lever, though the latter is unused; the weapon is only used in semi-automatic mode in-game. It uses 10-round mags by default, with 15 and 20-round extended magazines available.

===Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR===
Equipping the “18" Lonestar” or “18" T300” barrel makes the weapon resemble a [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]].

==Malyuk==
The [[Malyuk]] was added in Season 6 as the "TR-76 Geist". Despite that name, the rifle's markings seem to show its in-universe name as "Usenko", as well as correctly being marked as made in Ukraine.

==Marlin Model 336==
The [[Marlin Model 336]] appears as the "Lockwood Mk2", under the marksman rifles class. It is depicted as being chambered in the .45-70 Government cartridge, like the [[Marlin Model 1895]] that previously appeared in ''Modern Warfare'' as the "MK2 Carbine", but this time the shape of the ejection port indicates that it is a Model 336. It features the same basic ammo options as the other marksman rifles; notably, this includes armor-piercing ammo - while .45-70 AP rounds do exist (e.g. Lehigh Defense's X-Treme Penetrator rounds), the ones in-game are visually the same as the other calibers (likely for consistency's sake), with a black-finished case, a silver jacket, and a black spitzer-type point. Realistically, loading spitzer-pointed rounds in a tube magazine could lead to a chain-detonation (i.e. one round's point impacting the next round's primer), blowing the entire magazine tube apart.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] returns from the previous game as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel of 10 inches (which is not a standard length on the real VIRTUS). While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs, in fact being Rodolfo's signature weapon throughout the campaign (with a distinct two tone finish resembling the classic ''MW2'' ACR). It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1. Which can be unlocked by either completing its unlock challenge or via DMZ, where it can either be obtained by the Chemist boss agent (who uses the "Health Hazard" blueprint, which can also be unlocked with the gun), enemy agents in Building 21 or through players, enemy or friendly. If the player successfully extracts with the MCX, it will be unlocked in all game modes, as well as the aforementioned blueprint if obtained. Purchasing a bundle that has the MCX in it will also unlock the weapon.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards. For magazines, a translucent 30-round magazine is available by default with a PMAG-40 holding 45 rounds and the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine as alternative options. On an interesting note: when using the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine, the character can be seen putting the spent magazine into the plate carrier's pouches instead of the battle belt when performing a tactical reload.

In the intro cutscene for the campaign mission "Ghost Team", there is a picture of three Shadow Company operatives, with one of them holding an MCX VIRTUS with a more correctly modeled handguard.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS (.300 Blackout)==
A shorter-barreled (approximately 6.75 inches), .300 AAC Blackout version of the aforementioned MCX VIRTUS was added during Season 5 as the "M13C". While it is intended to pass for a [[SIG-Sauer MCX Rattler]], judging by the "ar_ralpha" internal file name and the chambering, it is actually an MCX VIRTUS with a stylized handguard, as evidenced by the forward assist and the barrel length.

==SIG-Sauer MCX / Honey Badger hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). However, the model in the game lacks a gas tube when previewing the weapon in the Gunsmith menu, either being a mistake or showing that the weapon is using direct blowback to operate (which is concerningly doable considering other higher-pressured cartridges being able to do it with a much heavier bolt carrier group). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is Simon "Ghost" Riley's main weapon throughout the campaign, where it is briefly available when the player takes control of him during the opening mission (with the unsuppressed “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

As with the KRISS Vector above, firing the weapon will not produce tracers and killing enemies with the Honey Badger hides skull indicators, thanks to its use of .300 AAC Blackout ammunition.

As with the MCX above, there are several ways to unlock the Honey Badger, either through purchasing a bundle that has it (along with the blueprint), completing its unlock challenge or through DMZ, where the player can scavenge a Honey Badger there. The Building 21 map is also a useful location in finding the carbine, as enemy agents use it on occasion or through the loot pools.

==Accuracy International AW50==
The [[Accuracy International AW50]] appears as the "Victus XMR"; it is available in Season 1 under the Imperatorium platform. It is worth noting (as with the AR-57) that the AW50 was planned for the original ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'' game, but only its code and firing sound (which sounds similar to the M82A1 in that game) are left as the weapon was scrapped, and it wasn't added to the ''Call of Duty'' series proper until ''MWII''.

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", .300 Winchester Magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively, and all other MRADs found in the story have the same naming issue.

==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
The [[Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] was added in Season 3, under the name "FJX Imperium". It is chambered in ".408 PACE", the analogue to the real life .408 CheyTac round. For laser attachments, the M200 uses the small "tube"-style laser set rather than the PEQ Box-style set, and despite the forward top rail being present they attach to the right side, thus it's unfortunately not possible to replicate the PEQ-2 attached to the original MW2's Intervention.

==Gepard GM6 Lynx==
The [[Gepard GM6 Lynx]] appears as the "Signal 50". It can be given its correct stock pad with the "FSS Echo Stock" attachment. A GM6 can be found atop the prison wall at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==Knight's Armament SR-25 E2 PR==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25|Knight's Armament SR-25 PR]] is the mid-season weapon in Season 2 Reloaded. It was added as a marksman rifle part of the M4 platform, under the name "Tempus Torrent". The rifle's SOPMOD-style stock can be equipped on every other member of the M4 platform, while its forend customization is split between a combination of the Barrel and Guard categories. The Guard category consists of four (including default) rail system options, one of which being a monolithic upper receiver; the "Torrent Tac Guard" resembles the URX 3 rail. The Barrel category includes standard, shorter, and longer options, as well as the “14" Chroma LRS” which is the URX / "Tac Guard" rail system (this time without rail covers) paired with an M110- / Mk 11-style suppressor, and a short barrel paired with a fifth type of rail system. The "Torrent MOC-IV" forend is based on a VLTOR CAS-V handguard that rather unfortunately leaves the gas tube exposed.

Using the "Torrent Tac Guard" and “16" Tour RP” allows for a SR-25 ECC style build.

The [[M24 SWS]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "SP-R 208" marksman rifle, this time chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO.

==Remington Model 700 (in custom chassis)==
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is a [[Remington Model 700]] variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. The resulting model has a short barrel reminiscent of the Remington 700 PCR SBR, a stylized-to-fit MDT chassis similar to the Israeli-modernized M24, and a stock of the Remington 700 PCR Enhanced. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .308 Winchester, befitting its status as a civilian rifle.

==Remington Mk 13 Mod 0==
A stylized [[Remington Mk 13 Mod 0]] appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the Remington Mk 13 Mod 0. It can be identified by the McMillan A2 stock, the .300 Winchester Magnum chambering and the fact that it appears as a variant to the aforementioned [[M24 SWS]] due to both using the action of the [[Remington Model 700]].

==Walther WA 2000==
The [[Walther WA 2000]] was added in Season 5 as the "Carrack .300". The model depicted is a hybrid of the first and second generation models, featuring the muzzle device of the former and stock design of the latter (with an added rear monopod). The "Carrack Palm" attachment adds the rifle's otherwise-missing palm rest. Like the game's M200 Intervention, the WA 2000 can deploy its integrated bipod through use of a barrel attachment. The “30" Flintline” barrel gives the rifle the second generation WA 2000 barrel length and flash hider, and likewise features a version with the bipod deployed. The rifle's scope comes in two variations, default having a flipped open lens cover (as in ''MW2''), while an unlockable version replaces this with a rubber eye piece (which provides a full-screen style view). As with all of the other default optics in the game, these can be equipped on other sniper rifles as well.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon, fitted with a laser sight for aiming. In certain events (the Shadow Siege limited-time event to name one), the weapon carries 200 rounds, which can be reloaded with unlimited spare ammo.

An unusable Minigun with a slotted flash hider can be found inside a building in the campaign mission "Kill or Capture".

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG. The "Icarus" name is likely derived from the manufacturer's original name "Ares;" as both are figures from Greek mythology.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment. It is also correctly depicted as a closed-bolt weapon, having no trigger delay compared to the open-bolt machine guns in the game.

In the campaign, it's correctly used by the Mexican Army.

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] is available in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants. Originally, when equipping the RPK's unique bipod attachment (which simply deploys the bipod) the gun would also gain an unnecessary picatinny rail under the handguard (presumably due to being in the underbarrel slot, like foregrips), however this was fixed with the Season 3 Reloaded update.

[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

==SIG-Sauer MG 338==
The [[SIG-Sauer MG 338]]'s 2020 prototype returns from ''Modern Warfare'', still named the "RAAL MG" (which stands for Reconnaissance Auxiliary Assault Lightweight Machine Gun). It uses essentially the same model from the previous game complete with the SIG-Sauer LMG-6.8 style stock and the A2 grip.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56", and is incorrectly depicted with an AUG A3's bolt release. It feeds by default from the same 60-round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however these seem to be non-STANAG/AUG-adapted as the magazines all don't have the cutout for the magazine catch to interface with. It can also equip a fictional non-STANAG polymer MAG5-100 as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.

=Launchers=
Having the underbarrel grenade launcher attached will replace the alternate firing mode (either semi-auto on most weapons or full-auto on some battle rifles) with the grenade launcher mode if available. Picking up a weapon with a UBGL attached or switching to it in the campaign designates the grenade launcher as the "M203", regardless of what model of grenade launcher actually is. The same applies to multiplayer, though it is referred to as "KL40-M2" (GP-25).

==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "STRELA-P".

==FGM-148 Javelin==
The stylized [[FGM-148 Javelin]] returns as the "JOKR".
[[File:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FGM-148 Javelin Block 0 with original M98A1 CLU and original BCU - 127mm]]

The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR-L and SCAR-H, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the Gunsmith.

==Hybrid Flare Pistol==
A fictional hybrid flare pistol seemingly mostly based on the [[Orion Flare Gun]] (with the grips of the 12-gauge version, but sized more similarly to the 25mm variant, and with parts of both variants' color schemes), with elements of the [[Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V]] (namely the trigger guard and the rounding on the front of the frame), and an overhanging breech similar to the [[Webley & Scott No. 3 Mk. I]] is available in Warzone, where it is used to signal for the re-deployment of teammates.

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option for the "M4", M16, both MCX variants, "FTac Recon", RM277, and SR-25, under the name "SPW 40mm".

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake", and is available for the AUG A3, HK91, HK93, APC556, VHS-K2, and FAMAS Valorisé.

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign as the "REV G-80" (while in Spec Ops, Warzone Battle Royale, DMZ and multiplayer it's named "RGL-80"), firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980. It appears as a rare weapon during the Gun Game gamemode in multiplayer, although not available in other modes.

The AV-140 MSGL is given to Garrick in "Violence and Timing," and some MSGLs can be found in the watchtower at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the dubious ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
As with ''Modern Warfare'', the "Flash Grenade" in the game is a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]. Many of the playable operators are depicted with this grenade, either in a pouch or hanging from their webbing with elastic bands attached. Picking up the flashbang in the campaign incorrectly dubs it as the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]". Toggling the "Inverted Flash" option on in the game's settings will make the screen go black when flashed, as opposed to white in its original function.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The same fictionalized depiction of the [[M84 stun grenade]] from the previous ''Modern Warfare'' installment is featured in multiplayer as the "Stun Grenade".

[[File:Mwiiconcussion3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Holding it at the ready, spoon compressed.]]

==Hybrid Bouncing Mine==
The "Proximity Mine" returns in ''MWII'' with an a similar albeit altered look from the first game. It resembles less of its real-life counterparts as with ''MW19''. It is accurately described as a "proximity-triggered explosive", as opposed to a "pressure-triggered" explosive in the previous installment.
[[File:Mwiiproxymineloadout.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Proxy Mine" in the loadout screen.]]
[[File:Mwiibouncingbetty1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Holding the mine.]]

=="Thermite"==
The "Thermite" grenade returns from ''MW19'', under a slightly altered model and new texture. They function exactly how they were in ''Modern Warfare''.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AGM-114 Hellfire==
Just like Modern Warfare 2019, the AGM-114 Hellfire missile appears on the AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter and a slightly fictionalized Hellfire is also a part of the "Cruise Missile" killstreak, parented to a Storm Shadow/AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon hybrid shell. These also appear to be mounted on the wing tips of the "Gunship" killstreak, which might explain the steerable 105mm rounds.

==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.

[[File:Mwiim2campaign2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side.]]

==Bushmaster M242 Chaingun==
What appears to be fictionalized [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]]s are mounted and used on the M2A4 Bradley IFV (formerly called Light Tank) armored vehicles. The model is carried over from Modern Warfare 2019 and description of the prior vehicle states that the cannon is chambered in 30mm. The "APC" (which appears to be a Boxer APC with the Stryker 30mm turret) also appears to mount the M242 Chaingun, chambered in 30mm.

[[File:Mwiiboxerapccampaign.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A higher definition model of the Boxer used during campaign.]]

==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun appears as the Sentry Gun killstreak in multiplayer; one of the few instances of the Sentry Gun not being some kind of a minigun in the series. A stockless M240 is used in the RWS turret atop the Merkava Mk.4 - CV90 "frankentank".
[[File:M240-1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|FN M240B with newer style lower handguard - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

[[File:Mwiimerkavam240breplace0.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the gun. As of Season 5, there is a slight delay between shooting the weapon and it actually firing, with an audiable clunk when the trigger is pressed.]]

[[File:Mwiimerkavam240breplace2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Rear.]]

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed fictional twin barrel [[M197 Vulcan]] turret, to fulfill the series' proud lineage of VTOL jets with swiveling gun turrets that hover around a vicinity and engage infantry targets.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20x102mm]]

[[File:Mwiivtol3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Left side.]]

==General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger==
A-10 Thunderbolt IIs return as the "Precision Airstrike" killstreak, performed with their [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] rotary cannons.
[[File:GAU-8 Avenger contrast.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger - 30x173mm]]

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D/E Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s, with some apparently having two at the same time. The double-M230 Apaches appear in the campaign missions "Kill or Capture" and "Ghost Team."

[[File:MWII AH-64 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AH-64 now apparently sports TWO M230 autocannons. The forward cannon functions more like an M134 Minigun, while the rear behaves like a traditional autocannon.]]

[[File:Mwiichoppergunner2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Left side.]]

==M102 105mm Howitzer==
The returning psudo-AC-130 "Gunship" also mounts the [[M102 Howitzer|M102 105mm howitzer]]. This gun appears prominently in the pre-rendered cutscenes of the interior of the gunship in the "Close Air" and "Hardpoint" missions, but its functionality is replaced by AGM-114 Hellfire style missiles in gameplay.

[[File:MWII M102 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher==
A modified version of the [[Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher]] returns from ''MW2019'', this time mounted to the "MRAP" eight wheeled gun trucks added in Season 5. The weapon is controlled via a RWS turret during gameplay.
[[File:Mk47-1.jpg|thumb|350px|none|Mk 47 Mod 0 grenade launcher - 40x53mm]]

[[File:Mwiimk472.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Rear]]

==Minigun==
Some kind of minigun is mounted on the "Wheelson" UGV killstreak unlike the auto grenade launchers used on the Wheelsons in ''Modern Warfare''.
[[File:Mwiiwheelston1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Wheelson.]]
[[File:Mwiiwheelston2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the gun.]]
[[File:Mwiiwheelston3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Rear.]]

==Mk44 Bushmaster GAU-23/A==
The "Gunship"'s AC-130J-based loadout includes the Mk44 Bushmaster 30mm GAU-23/A gun. It functions akin the Bofors 40mm seen previously.
[[File:AC-130UMk44BushmasterTrialGAU-23A.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AC-130U with a trial installation of two Mk 44 weapons - 30×173mm]]

[[File:Mwiibofors40mm1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the GAU-23/A.]]

==Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B==
Mil Mi-24V "Hind" helicopters appear in ''MWII'' and feature the nose mounted [[Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B]] rotary cannons. Compared to the earlier games, the Mi-24 also correctly only has this chin gun, whereas unused 23/30mm twin GSh cannons were present in the original trilogy.
[[File:YakB-127mm.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B - 12.7x108mm]]
[[File:Mwiioverwatchheli1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|In multiplayer (as seen here), the Mi-24 is a killstreak called the "Overwatch Helo" and functions similarly to the Harrier. In DMZ the helicopter appears as a boss, and can take a considerable amount of damage before being destroyed (for example flying normally despite being on fire and losing it's wings).]]

=Other=
==Hybrid Reverse Draw Crossbow==
A slightly modified version of the reverse draw crossbow reappears from the previous game. It appears as a bonus weapon unlocked in safes in the missions "El Sin Nombre" and "Alone", and it is available in multiplayer as part of Season 2. It is unlocked by completing the unlock challenge or by buying a bundle in the store that has the blueprint available.

=Unusable Weapons=

==Beretta M9A3==
The [[Beretta M9A3]] appears on Gus' skin "El Santo" in the shoulder holster. It uses the "Renetti" model from ''Modern Warfare'' with the "Veins of Gold" blueprint grips. It appears to be missing the hammer, however.

==Glock 18C / Arsenal Firearms Strike One hybrid==
A hybrid pistol appears on Ghost's "Gilded Reaper" skin. It is actually one of the blueprints of the "X16" ([[Glock 21]]) from ''Modern Warfare'', which has an [[Arsenal Firearms Strike One]]-style frame combined with the "Singuard Arms Featherweight" barrel, the latter consisting of a [[Glock 18C]]'s slide with custom cutouts on the side.

The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in the "Ghosting Everyone" loading screen and the "Shaded Ghost" calling card.

Additionally, a Kimber is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic Colt M1911-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

Two unusable STI 2011 pistols resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire" outside the fish hatchery. It uses the model of the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911 Series#SIG-Sauer 1911 Traditional TACOPS|SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.
[[File:STI Tac.jpg|thumb|none|350px|STI Tactical 5.0 - 9x19mm / .40 S&W / .45 ACP]]

==AK-47==
A portrait of Diego inside the Las Almas mansion has two [[AK-47]]s crossed in the background. These appear to be the "Golden Dragon" blueprint from ''MW19''. The actual model is also present in lockers inside a shed on the Farm 18 multiplayer level.

==PKM==
Two racks with three [[PKM]]s each are also found next the AK-47s on Farm 18.

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II''''' is the nineteenth installment in the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is a direct sequel to ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'', and it was released on October 28, 2022.

Like ''Modern Warfare 2019'', the game is comprised of four main modes: the traditional singleplayer campaign, multiplayer, Spec Ops and Warzone 2.0 with additional DMZ mode.

The singleplayer story is the continuation of ''Modern Warfare''’s storyline, following the newly-formed elite multinational Task Force 141 in their continuing fight against the terrorist organization Al-Qatala, who have formed an alliance with the deadly Las Almas drug cartel.

The multiplayer is the standard attraction of the ''Call of Duty'' franchise, along with PvE Spec Ops missions. A new submode to Spec Ops are Raids, which are multi-stage, high-risk high-reward episodic long levels mixed with cooperative combat and puzzle-solving. As of March 2023, "Atomgrad" is the only available Raid in the game, along with four episodes which take place after the events of ''Modern Warfare'' and by extension, some events of Warzone 1.0 before the release of ''Black Ops: Cold War''.

Following on the heels of ''Warzone'', '''''Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0''''' is a standalone free-to-play gamemode that expands upon the original mode with new features and new maps, with additional maps being added later seasons. In addition, Warzone 2.0 also includes the DMZ submode, an extraction-type PvPvE gamemode where players complete faction quests, scavenge for weapons and loots, fend off against enemy NPCs as well as players and exfiltrate the map alive, with no set objective.

The weapon system in ''Modern Warfare II'' is a modified version of the weapons and Gunsmith system found in ''Modern Warfare'', with a limit of five mod slots. Primary weapons are divided into seven types: submachine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, battle rifles (high damage, high recoil select-fire rifles with low capacity), marksman rifles (high damage, accurate, exclusively semi-auto/manually-operated rifles, with iron sights), light machine guns, and sniper rifles. Weapon inspection animations are more intricate than it was in ''Modern Warfare'', with the user often checking the magazine and/or chamber in each of the inspect animations. The current ammunition type (hollow points, incendiary rounds and the like) can also be seen. As of Season 1, inspect animations now correctly account for if the weapon is empty or not; this was not the case during the multiplayer beta and launch builds of the game.

Weapon reloads are now "staged", meaning if the player performs an action that would cancel a reload (as with previous entries), the reload animation will resume to its previous state until the magazine/last round is either inserted (for non-empty reloads) or when the weapon is chambered. Underbarrel grenade launcher reloads are not affected by this, however.

Reaching the maximum level of a weapon unlocks Weapon Tuning, wherein the player can finetune various attachments to be slightly better at one statistic at the cost of another. Various store blueprints come with predetermined "pro-tuned" attachments; in which the player cannot modify. Pro-tuned attachments are reset if the player modifies their attachments or its tuning.

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments. It is possible to create a loadout with two similar weapons with marginally different stats, such as having the AUG A3 and AUG HBAR variant in the same loadout, with similar attachment setups. Post-release weapons in existing weapon platforms are not unlocked by progressing the specific weapon level required, as those are completed through various tasks instead.

The current Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* ISO Platform (B&T APC family)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Sakin G Series (Desert Eagle variants)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

Through the use of grip attachments, the "Pistol Fastdraw" benefit (previously known as "Tactical Pistol Raise") introduced in ''MWII'' is the ability to instantly draw the player's sidearm without fully lowering their primary weapon. Dual-wielding makes a return in ''Modern Warfare II'', although it is regulated to the grip attachment of the weapon instead of being a weapon perk and it's only restricted to handguns exclusively (including TEC-9 hybrid machine pistol).

Various executions (finishing moves) that use a firearm in this game now involve other weapon types, in addition to a pistol unlike in prior games. If the player has a weapon of the same class (assault rifle, SMG, etc) as a given execution's default weapon, the player's custom weapon will be featured instead.

''Modern Warfare II'' introduces extensive and realistic water physics, a significant improvement over ''Black Ops: Cold War'', the previous game in the series to feature water mechanics. Unlike in ''Cold War'', primary weapons can't be fired underwater and only handguns can, albeit with a reduced efficiency. Shooting into water and explosions cause ripples and mines float when thrown onto water. When swimming on the surface, water flows into the weapon's details and the weapon along with its user can get wet.

Weapon and inventory management in Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale is similar to its previous iteration, where in players are airdropped with weak weapons, scavenge weapons all over the game world and procure their own loadout weapons in a supply drop. DMZ on the other hand is similar to "extraction" games of a similar fashion. The player is given three insured weapon slots (one available at the start, the other two require metagame upgrades), which the player can customize and they do not get lost if they leave it in the game world (should the player die or exchange for a new weapon, even if the enemy picks up the weapon), though it has a cooldown which can be decreased by successful extractions, through upgrades, through certain in-game weapon blueprints (that are obtained through bundles) or by submitting items into a "dead drop" (which is an interactable dumpster) in certain locations of the map. In addition, the player has a number of temporary "contraband" weapon slots which are the weapons brought by the player upon a successful extraction. These weapons will be lost if they are dropped, although they can be destroyed in the game's lobby to free up space for more contraband weapons. Firearms can be customized in a Workbench while on a raid, albeit with a fee of credits obtained throughout the round and a limited selection of attachments.

As before, weapons in both Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale and DMZ can be acquired through enemies (either NPC bots or player operatives) or through various loot containers all over the map; contraband weapons from DMZ can also be obtained by completing various faction missions. Also, if the player extracts with a weapon that they haven't unlocked yet, the weapon will be immediately unlocked for free without the player level or weapon platform requirement.

The method of unlocking cosmetic camouflages was overhauled in ''MWII'' compared to its predecessors. Every weapon has four unique camouflages (with only one unique camo for every launcher), each with their easy challenges in order to unlock them. Once the specific camo is unlocked, it can be used in every weapon available, streamlining the process of the camo grind from previous games. Unlocking all base camouflages for the current weapon allows the player to progress through the mastery camo challenges.

==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] returns as the ".50 GS" and is said to be manufactured by Sakin ("Sakin" meaning "Knife" in Hebrew, alluding to the knife in the logo of IMI/IWI). The new model is a bit more stylized and features Picatinny rails on the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, a skeletonized hammer, and has a two-tone finish that is basically the reverse of the Desert Eagle in the original ''[[Modern Warfare 2]]''; the ''MW2'' pistol had a chrome frame and trigger, while the ''MWII'' pistol has a chrome slide, barrel, and hammer. It is frequently used by Las Almas cartel members.

The standard magazine capacity is of 7 rounds, but extended baseplates that take the capacity to 10 or 13 rounds are available. The weapon can be modified with a ported barrel via the "SA Comp Barrel".

=="GS Magna"==
A Desert Eagle modified (presumably by cartel members) to fire full-auto based on the "Thunderbird" Desert Eagle made by YouTuber Mr.Wilk was added as a separate weapon in Season 3 Reloaded, as the "GS Magna". Aesthetically, the pistols differs from the game's standard Desert Eagle by featuring a ported barrel, different grip texture, a tan/bronze-like finish, and different markings. In gameplay terms, it cannot equip lasers/lights or trigger attachments, but can instead use vertical foregrips.

==Glock 17 MOS==
The "X12", manufactured by the in-game XRK, is a stylized [[Glock 17|Glock 17 MOS]]. It is based on a 5th generation version with front slide serrations, though it is depicted with two pins above the trigger like the Gen 3 and Gen 4 models (as opposed to one pin for the Gen 5). It's equipped with a plate system to mount red dots, just like the real Glock MOS System and many of its stylized parts include the rounded bottom beaver-tail, the MIL-STD 19-13 rail, the hinged trigger (which turns into a more Glock-style one with some customization options), a small port on top of the slide just rear of the front sight and the grip texture.

It can be fitted with a Flux Defense Brace, called "XRK Pistol Stock". It feeds by default from Magpul 17 round Glock magazines with a grey follower, a +7 extended baseplate that changes the follower color to orange, a 33-round stick magazine stylized to look like a Kriss MagEx2 (that's supposed to hold 40 rounds) and a Magpul PMAG D-50 GL9 50 round drum magazine. The same options are available for the Glock 18.

Judging by the square hole in the pistol's frame, where a QR code is painted out, the XRK pistol platform seems to be modular just like the [[SIG-Sauer P320]] or the ZEV OZ-9.

It is frequently used by Las Almas Cartel members, Soap, Rodolfo and Russian Konni PMCs in the campaign. Glocks are also seen in many character's holsters, including Ghost and Alejandro.

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", as part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and ''MW19''’s "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

In the campaign it's seen used by Russian PMCs and the Mexican Army (which is inaccurate, as the latter are issued the [[Beretta 92FS]] or the [[SIG-Sauer P226]]).

[[File:Mw 22 x13 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another small change from the X12 are the standard iron sights, which now have a green front post.]]

===Glock 18 (in carbine conversion kit)===
Using the "Impact Point" barrel attachment places the X13 inside a carbine conversion kit. The kit resembles the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]] with its compact size and AR-15 style T-handle.

===Glock 18 (3D printed)===
3D printed Glock pistols appear in the hands of terrorists in the post-credits scene. A complete version of this cutscene also appears in the sequel, ''Modern Warfare III''. The pistols are likely based on the "X13 Auto" model, as they feature a selector switch on the right side of the slide.

In the scene, a terrorist assembles a 3D printed Glock pistol in a plane cabin mid-flight by smuggling individual gun components onto the plane separately. The individual parts shown include a metal firing pin (hidden in the safety belt buckle), a metal barrel (hidden in a flashlight), a trigger (disguised in a necklace), a polymer slide and a polymer frame (both hidden on the person), and a metal magazine with ammunition (hidden underneath a plate cloche).

Though dramatic, the scene is logistically unrealistic, as disassembled firearm components likely still would've been detected by airport security, and the insider collaboration required for hiding the gun parts on the plane in the first place likely would've also allowed for a full gun to be smuggled. Additionally, the metal parts shown would be insufficient to assemble a functional gun - while 3D-printed Glock frames do exist, they use metal fire control parts, metal springs, metal locking blocks inserted into the frame, and (perhaps most crucially) metal slides.

The whole thing might have been inspired by videos such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4dBuPJ9p7A story by VICE about printing a Glock], though, even that particular video shows the complexities involved with the assembly.
[[File:Mwii3dglock1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The terrorist places individual parts on his tray table.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
A [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. At launch, the trigger was not animated during the decocking sequence, though this has since been patched. When using the double-action-only trigger group, the trigger is still incorrectly in the more rearward single action position, however. It feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

Like the two Glock variants, the P220 features a slide equipped with a cut for micro red dot optics (that mount directly onto the slide, instead of having different plates between the slide and the optic, which would mean that either all the MRDs in the game share the same mounting system or the cut is universal), a feature not available out of the box on the real SIG.

It seems to be a favorite of various members of TF 141 and US MARSOC in "Kill or Capture" are seen with the pistols in their holsters instead of the more fitting M45A1 or the Glock 19 (which could have been made as the X14 in-game).

===SIG-Sauer P220 X-Six===
Fitting the P220 with the "Matuzek Cottonmouth Barrel" (which is stated to be 140mm long, while the X-Six's is 153mm long), the "Bruen RSH-80 Grip" and the "XRX Heavy V3" trigger group will make it somewhat resemble the P220 X-Six, retaining the double-action trigger mechanism and black standard frame.

[[File:Mw22 p220 c.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Right side view of the P220 Carry.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] appears as the "Basilisk" (or "Centum 5" in pre-release). The barrel appears to be somewhere between the 4 and 8 inch barrel options for the real Model 500, most likely 6 inches. Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]''’s Taurus Raging Hunter, unfired rounds in the chamber are retained while reloading. Having the "Fast Reload" perk or "Akimbo" attachment omits retaining rounds entirely, but keeps it in the player's ammunition pool.

The primers will always appear as intact, however.]]

==Staccato P==
The [[STI 1911 Series|Staccato P]] was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "9mm Daemon". Its default magazine holds 15 rounds (the real Staccato mag holds 17), options for 20 and 26 round magazines are also available. The gun can be extensively customized with parts inspired by various custom 2011 gunmakers. A barrel option gives the Daemon a frame mounted red dot, charging handle and a competition slide with a compensator, a setup commonly found on IPSC Open race guns; this slide also changes the equip/first-draw animation from a twirl followed by chambering the pistol, to simply chambering the pistol using the charging handle. A first in the series, the gun can be fitted with a magwell (in the Grip slot), which negates the need for the Sleight of Hand perk and makes the gun reload faster by default. When drawing and holstering the pistol, the manual thumb safety is used, although in a bit of a dramatic way when it comes to stowing away the weapon.
The gun has very high hip-fire accuracy, suggested by how close the operator holds it, in a Central Axis Relock manner, it manages to have very low recoil, even less than the Glock 17, which has virtually none, and a fast fire rate by default, overall a great 9mm secondary.

==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with a traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear and as capable of being chambered from empty with the existing bolt release, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle (that can be changed to the left with the bolt release removed from the lower receiver) and no automatic bolt hold open, though it can be manually locked to the rear using the existing lower's bolt release lever. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system, probably based on the Gen 2 handguard (although the Gen 2 handguard is still a quad-rail design with cooling slits, not a proper M-LOK design) or the new M-LOK ULT rails on current production models (though seeming to lack the QD cup and dedicated 1913 picatinny rails on the bottom which would negate the ability to put the adapters that are there that are on the model). It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock (which would not be possible on the real gun as the stock requires a shortened proprietary combined bolt carrier + buffer to use) and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

On a related note, it is not the first time that the AR-57 was conceived into the ''Call of Duty'' series, as it was planned to be added in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' as a [[Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops II#AR-57|usable weapon]]. It was however, eventually replaced by a [[Call of Duty: Black Ops II#"PDW-57"|fictional variant]] of the P90 before the game's release.

==Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC45|Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO]] was added in Season 4 as the "ISO 45". It retains some of the animations of the previous "ISO" submachine gun in ''Modern Warfare 2019''. It is also stylized similarly to it, including the upper receiver being extended to the rear (albeit not as much as its ''MW19'' counterpart). By default, it is modeled with the "FTAC 225mm Dominator" barrel from ''Modern Warfare'', which is an extended barrel of intermediate length between the APC45/APC9 and the APC9-P. It can be modified to resemble an APC45 SD with the “16" XLB-S” barrel, or an APC9 K with the “4" Frame S-1” barrel and "SK-3 Cheetah" stock.

==Brügger & Thomet APC9 K PRO G==
In addition to the aforementioned APC45, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9 K PRO G]] returns from ''Modern Warfare''. It was added in Season 6 under the name "ISO 9mm".

==FN P90 TR==
A stylized [[FN P90 TR]] (inspired by some blueprints from ''Modern Warfare'' with the grip design based on that of the [[Magpul PDR-C]]) appears as the "PDSW 528" as part of the Tactique Defense platform. The "528" designation is an abridgement of its '''5'''.7x'''28'''mm caliber. The stylized magazine from those blueprints is now transparent, and tracks the feeding ammunition. The P90 TR can be turned into a regular P90 with its integrated optic, however unlike ''MW19'' this attachment isn't in the Optic category, but rather a new "Rail" category that allows for three different upper receivers: The (stylized) P90 TR upper by default, the P90 upper with optic, or the aftermarket EFFEN 90 upper with a tiny low profile rail. Equipping the integrated optic upper blocks use the optics attachment category. The longer-than-normal barrel can be returned to its proper length with the “9.5" Duke-30” barrel attachment.

It only fires in full auto in-game; the selector functionality is absent.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3==
The "Lachmann Sub" is a [[Heckler & Koch HK94A3]] chopped and converted to resemble an [[MP5A5]]. The giveaway is that, along with other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform (which is clearly supposed to represent the Heckler & Koch roller-delayed family of weapons), it lacks a paddle magazine release, leaving only the (extended) button release. The game's HK94 has a 3-round burst trigger group installed, as well as an MP5's barrel with attachment lugs. Curiously enough, the trigger group lacks a semi-auto position; accordingly, the weapon can be switched between full-auto and three-round burst during gameplay, but not semi-auto. The in-game weapon also sports a strange cylindrical charging handle that differs from the other weapons in its family.
15, 30 (the default one) and 40 round metal magazines are available, along with a 50 round drum inspired by the Magpul PMAG D-50 MP.

The "Lachmann Pulsar" barrel attachment gives it a short barrel approximating that of an [[MP5K]]. The "LM Cronus Grip" gives it the same [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group as the one seen on ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s MP5 blueprints, with the triangular parts still facing the wrong directions, but this time the selector markings are "S-3-F".

The HK94A3 is mostly used by the Las Almas Cartel and Colonel Vargas' "Los Vaqueros" federal special forces unit in the campaign story.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (with integral suppressor)==
An integrally suppressed version of the aforementioned HK94A3 (intended to pass for an [[MP5SD]]) was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "Lachmann Shroud". In contrast to its unsuppressed counterpart, it lacks a full-auto option, and is instead fitted with a safe/semi-auto/3-round burst trigger group.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A2==
A fictionalized [[Heckler & Koch MP7A2]] appears as the "VEL 46" as part of the LMP platform.
It feeds from 40 round magazines by default, and 30 round stylized magazines, a fictional quadstack 50 rounder and 60 round drum are available to extend the gun's capacity.

==Interdynamic KG-9 / Intratec TEC-9 hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[Interdynamic KG-9]] and the [[Intratec TEC-9]] was added to the handguns class in Season 3 Reloaded as the "FTAC Siege". The weapon has four upper receiver options, most of which have sub-options as well. The standard upper receiver also comes in an extended barrel variant ("Ratchet BE"), an extended barrel and barrel shroud variant ("SuperTac-VI"), and an integrally suppressed variant ("Ratchet BE Tac"). An upper based on the TEC-9 Mini ("Mouse 99") is also available, which blocks the use of grips, optics, and lasers due to its small size. A much longer upper with angled shroud holes comes in standard ("CMRN-50") and integrally suppressed ("NST-81", previously known as "STF-U") variations, and a lightweight upper with rectangular holes and entirely different iron sights are also options.

The gun can equip the wire stock and foregrip of the KG-9's full-auto sibling, the MP-9. Other stock and grip options are available, including an angled metal foregrip highly reminiscent of the [[Beretta 93R]]. A unique thread-on suppressor is also available, and the SMG feeds from 32-round mags, 20-round mags, 50-round drums, or 72-round drums. As of Season 4, it can be dual-wielded, and uniquely, it features an on-screen reload animation when reloading the weapon while akimbo; though it is not the first game that does this, ''[[Call of Duty 2: Big Red One]]'' and ''Call of Duty: Mobile'' both feature such akimbo reload animations for pistols and the Vector respectively.

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", which is still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver and once again has a massively shrunk-down Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for, thus resulting in the weapon having actual muzzle rise. As with the P220 pistol, killing opponents with the Vector will hide death skull indicators with its subsonic .45 ammunition.

The default magazines for the Fennec are KRISS MagEx2's with a 30 round capacity. The two other magazine options are a 13-round Glock 21 magazine underloaded to 12 rounds (it actually does have one less witness hole, a very nice detail) which converts the Fennec to 2-round burst, and a Magpul D-50 9mm Glock drum magazine adapted to .45 ACP and with a 45 round capacity.

The weapon has an extended barrel and handguard, the former similar in length to the 8" export model only available in Ukraine, and the latter seemingly inspired by the KRISS MK1 Modular Rail. Barrel customization options include the “5.5" Fennec Minitac” (a standard Vector's 5.5" barrel), “FTac 8.5" Recon” (actually a 6.5" barrel with a stylized MK5 Modular Rail), and "Fennec Covert Force" (a barrel shroud based on a Vector CRB Enhanced, depicted as an integral suppressor in-game).

Stock options include the "Agile Assault-7 Stock" (based on the early TDI Vector prototype stock) and the "FTac Stock Cap" (a Vector SDP's quick-detach sling swivel).

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[PP-19 Bizon-2]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "Minibak", now with a more correctly modeled receiver, forend and stock. It still uses the earlier Bizon-1's 64-round helical magazine by default, but this time with the magazine front attachment point of the Bizon-2.

==PP-19-01 Vityaz==
The [[PP-19-01 Vityaz]] appears as the "Vaznev-9K". It is fitted with a railed AK-100 series polymer style forend. Prior to the Season 1 update, the Vityaz could not accept any underbarrel accessories in multiplayer. Vityazs with underbarrel grips can be found in the Campaign in the hands of Al-Qatala and Russian PMCs.

In addition to the standard 30-round stick mag the gun feeds from by default, the Vityaz can accept fictional quad-stack 45-round magazines. It can also be modified with a [[Saiga 9]]'s 367mm barrel via the "SA Response III" barrel attachment.

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1. It is part of the "Bruen Ops" platform, suggesting that the in-game manufacturer Bruen (which also manufactures the Bruen Bullpup/AUG platform) is a mishmash of SIG and Steyr.

The optional barrels are the following: “12" Bruen SZ-36” (a fictional-length barrel with an M-LOK handguard that looks like a Midwest Industries / Samson Manufacturing hybrid), “10.5" Bruen Typhon” (an integrally suppressed barrel with an MPX Gen 1 style handguard), “6.5" Bruen Drake” (a 6.5" barrel with a factory MPX-style M-LOK handguard), and “4" Thunderfire” (an [[SIG-Sauer MPX K|MPX K]]'s 4.5" barrel).

The "Battle Worn" blueprint, Alejandro's customized MPX from the campaign, was made unlockable for multiplayer during a time-limited event in Season 5. This blueprint's add-on flaired magwell and titanium nitride-coated bolt also make it ideal for a [[John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum|''John Wick'']] build, something likely intentional on the developers' part given how specific a combination this is.

=Shotguns=
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12." It is used by Shadow Company and Task Force 141 members in the story.

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel, longer competition-style magazine tube, railed and slim forends and a variety of stock options including a field stock option, collapsed and extended stock and a fixed pistol grip stock combination. Interestingly, it is capable of firing Dragon's Breath shells with no issues; while the M4 can fire such shells, they have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds, as such they require manual cycling.

The "Bryson Reverb-55 Stock" gives it a fixed stock similar to Magpul shotgun stocks, and the "419mm Schlager Salvo" and "FSS Frame Stock" are resemble the forend and stock of the pump-action [[FABARM STF 12]].

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story and DMZ. The shotgun received a dual trigger attachment option with Season 6, allowing the player character to fire both barrels simultaneously. To help balance the need to reload after every trigger pull with this attachment, the player character will slide in both shells in simultaneously, as opposed to one after the other in the normal empty reload.

===Side by Side Shotgun===
The "Super Shotgun" blueprint from the DOOM bundle is a [[Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun|sawed-off side by side shotgun]]. As the entire weapon model is replaced, its attachments cannot be customized, though it should be noted that it's statistically identical to the Citori. One of its attachments is the double trigger, added just before this bundle and clearly specifically created to allow the Super Shotgun to function as it should. Faithful to its [[Doom (VG)|source material]], the entire shotgun is animated with the same jittery style as the original DOOM Super Shotgun as opposed to standard interpolation animation used in other weapons, although the animations revert to standard, albeit currently bugged, Citori animations when a camo is applied. Other changes include the original red muzzle flash, its sway pattern, and sound.
[[File:Remington SBS.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Remington Spartan sawed-off shotgun - 12 gauge]]

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube. The updated empty inspect animation even shows correct operation for a Benelli-style semi-automatic shotgun, showing the bolt carrier moving freely without locking back until the operator dry-fires the shotgun and racks it back, causing it to lock open. A Dragon's Breath-equipped model has also been introduced into the game with the release of Season 5 under the name "Corvus Torch".

==IWI Tavor TS12==
The [[IWI Tavor TS12]] was added in Season 4 Reloaded as the "MX Guardian". Unlike its real-life counterpart, the TS12 in-game effectively functions as a shotgun Bizon, sporting a detachable helical/prism magazine instead of the triple 5-round tube cluster of the real life version. Thus, upon reloading, the user simply swaps out the magazine instead of inserting individual shells. The TS12 is also fully automatic by default, with semi-automatic and two-round burst fire trigger packs (probably to simulate a binary trigger) as attachments, unlike the real TS12, which comes in semi-automatic by default (of course with the possibility of homemade trigger packs). Prior to the Season 5 update, the shotgun's in-game description described it as having the real version's three separate rotating magazine tubes.

==Molot Vepr-12==
The [[Vepr-12]] was added in Season 2 as the "KV Broadside", an addition to the "Kastovia" platform. It feeds from 8-round magazines, with the option for 12-rounders or 25-round drums, though curiously it cannot use its smaller 5-round mags, despite them already being in the game (used by the Mossberg 590M). Along with being fitted with a left side charging handle modification, the shotgun's bolt will lock open when empty when using either stick magazine, but does not lock back when using the drum. The Vepr is the first weapon outside of the Assault Rifle and Battle Rifle classes able to mount underbarrel weapons, both the GP-25 and (rather amusingly) the underbarrel shotgun. It can be loaded with Dragon's Breath incendiary shells, though as with the Benelli M4 above, low-powered rounds would make the weapon's usage unfeasible because of the weapon's self-loading nature. It is not an issue when used in-game, though. A custom Vepr-12 firing incendiary shells is the weapon of choice of the Pyro DMZ boss, along with a riot shield.

As a post-release weapon, it can either be permanently unlocked by completing its challenge, purchasing by a store bundle that has the weapon, or by extracting the weapon in DMZ mode.

==Mossberg 590==
The [[Mossberg 590]] appears as the "Bryson 800". Unlike the previous ''Modern Warfare''’s pump-action shotguns, this weapon is chamber-loaded upon running empty, a rare instance in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files (which did eventually come to the game in Season 2), and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (5, 8, and 12).

A Los Vaqueros operative uses the 590M to breach a door in the "Cartel Protection" mission.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AK-103==
The [[AK-103]] appears as the "Kastov 762". The "Kastov" label implies that the rifle was developed in the fictional country of Kastovia from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]''. Magazine options include the standard 30-round polymer mag, and 20 or 40 round steel magazines.

The weapon can be modified with an [[AKM]]'s gas block and wooden handguard via the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel attachment, as well as AKM's stock via the "Ivanov Wood Stock", while retaining the AK-103's front sight block, smooth dust cover, and folding stock hardware on the left side of the receiver. It can also be fitted with an [[AKMS]]'s underfolding stock via the "Prolite TL3 Stock". Some of these combinations can be found in the campaign. The "Cursed" blueprint from Season 3 "features" a removed dust cover, which showcases the AK's bolt.

===AK-104===

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty.

The default magazines are tan 30-rounders (6L23) and alternative options include 20-round black polymer mags, a 45-round classic red 6L18 magazine and a 60-round quad-stack black magazine (6L31).

===AK-74M===

===AKS-74N===
The rifle can be turned into a pseudo [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. This is achieved by pairing the "Kastov-Rama" stock with either the "Kastovia 406" barrel (which has a synthetic handguard) or the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel (which has a wooden handguard, along with an earlier AKM's 62 degree gas block and slant brake). The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, previously including the impossible reloading technique without the stock. As of the Season 2 update, the gun instead has a unique empty reload animation when lacking a stock, in which the player character holds the gun sideways, knocks out the old mag with the new one (held "upside down" in their hand), then rocks it in and performs and underhand pull of the bolt, similar to the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'' 's [[AN-94]].

The loadout and progression menu images show it with a polymer 7.62x39mm magazine, though an [[AKMSU]] conversion or separate weapon does not appear in the released game. At the moment the gun uses black polymer 30 round magazines (6L23) by default, 20 rounders serve as fast mags, and the same 45 round magazine available from the AK-105 (6L18) serves as the only extended option.

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks. It is a common weapon from Al-Qatala NPC forces in Al Mazrah in DMZ.

==Brügger & Thomet APC556==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC556]] was added in Season 2, as the "ISO Hemlock". The rifle is part of the "ISO" platform, connecting the APC556 to its smaller sibling, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9]]/"ISO" from ''MW19''. It also shares similar Magpul MBUS styled iron sights.

The game files refer to the weapon as "ar_acharlie300", alluding to the APC300 variant. In addition, the ejection port is marked "Cal. 7.62x35mm" (i.e. .300 AAC Blackout), and the handguard is an elongated version of the one seen on the APC300 and early versions of the APC556 PDW (interestingly, the rifle in-game is a normal APC556/300 upper receiver on a Pro lower receiver, shown by its ability to change pistol grips). Conversely, the gas system is of APC556-esque length. The weapon is chambered in the APC556's 5.56x45mm cartridge by default, and can be modified to use the APC300's .300 Blackout ammunition.

Being a post-release weapon, the APC556 is unlocked either through store bundles, DMZ or challenge unlock.

==Colt Model 901==
The [[M16A4|Colt Model 901]] (which was marketed as an M16A3) appears in the game as the "M16". It fires in three-round bursts, meaning it is intended to pass for an M16A4, but the fire selector has the Safe/Semi/Auto markings of the A3 rather than the A4's Safe/Semi/Burst. It is fitted with a KAC M5 railed handguard and feeds from the same stylized windowed PMAGs used with the "M4". Along with the two extended magazine options available for the "M4", the M16 can also use short 20-round GI magazines that hold 15 rounds for some reason (maybe because 20 isn't a multiple of 3 or to align it with the same magazine option seen on the HK93, which also is a 20 rounder limited to a capacity of 15).

A properly functioning R0901-style rifle can also be achieved by modifying the "M4" mentioned below, although keeping the non-milspec upper and lower receiver.

Numerous factions in the campaign use the Model 901 M16 rifle, including Al-Qatala, the Las Almas Cartel, and the Mexican Army.

Note the "M16A2" markings on the magwell, which (intentionally or not) would be correct for an M16A3, as the receiver of the real weapon is indeed marked as such.]]

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).

===Mk 18 Mod 1===
Fitting the M16 with the "11.5 T-H4 Barrel" and any telescoping stock will create a Mk 18 Mod 1.

===M4A1 Carbine===
The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight, turning it into an [[M4A1]] (or an [[M4 Carbine|M4]] in gameplay terms).
[[File:ColtM4A1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt M4A1 with 6 position collapsible stock - 5.56x45mm]]

==FAMAS Valorisé==
The [[FAMAS Valorisé]] was added in Season 5 under the name "FR Avancer", though the markings on its model read "Modèle 223". As with every other FAMAS in ''Call of Duty'' thus far the rifle features 25-round magazines; for the second time in the series they actually hold the correct 25 rounds, rather than 30. 45- and 60-round quad-stack magazines are available alternate options, with the former being the "chopped" MAG5-60 quad-stack model seen on Instagram and in the previous Modern Warfare game. Also as in ''MW19'', the rifle's integrated bipod can be deployed as an attachment (though currently this also unnecessarily equips a rail under the handguard, as was the case for the RPK's bipod before that was fixed), while equipping the "SA Ion" pistol grip and "FR Sprinter" stock pad brings the rifle closer in appearance to its real world counterpart.

A pseudo FAMAS FÉLIN build can be achieved by adding the "3x RFL-Optic" and "OP-X9 Foregrip" to the aforementioned pistol grip and stock.

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50-round drum, are available as extended options. Interestingly, the rifle features its internal file name in its receiver markings, placed as if "SCHotel" is its in-universe model name; following the standards of internal file names, "S C Hotel" naturally stands for "'''SC'''AR-'''H'''". This time, it is correctly classified as a battle rifle instead of an assault rifle.

[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the gunsmith preview screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19''’s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a rail extension and a fixed stock resembling an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S stock or a KRG SCAR Long Range Stock. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story. 10-, 15- and 20-round magazines are available, all of which being 5-rounds-underloaded compared to real life.

It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor. At the time of the game's release, the real SCAR 17S could be converted to use this cartridge (while the SCAR 20S had received that caliber as a factory option). Interestingly, a year later (September 2023), FN America announced the availability of a limited-edition SCAR 17S DMR that is actually chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor and has a fixed SSR stock.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver. It feeds from black STANAG style 30-round magazines, but 40-round PMAGs and 60-round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

It comes with a (swappable) stylized A2 grip by default and the magazine release on the right side seems to be an aftermarket extended one.

Marines in "Kill or Capture" have SCAR-Ls. It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

===FN SCAR-L CQC===
Equipping the SCAR-L with the "12' Tacshort Barrel" will give it a CQC-length barrel.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A2==
A [[Heckler & Koch HK91A2]] with a safe/semi/auto select fire trigger group appears as the "Lachmann-762". Like the other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform, it lacks a paddle magazine release, distinguishing it from the military [[G3]]. It appears to be fitted with a stylized slimline handguard.

It is a standard rifle of the Mexican Army in-game.

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===

==Heckler & Koch HK93A2==
A shortened [[Heckler & Koch HK93A2]] with a Magpul-inspired trigger group with safe/semi/auto positions appears as the "Lachmann-556". Once again, the lack of a paddle magazine release distinguishes it from the military [[HK33]].

It is intended to be an [[HK53]], as evidenced by the game files referring to it as "ar_kilo53", though the barrel and the cocking tube are slightly longer than this version, with the length being between the HK53 and the HK33KA3. It can be made HK33-length with the "Lachmann Nova" or "LM Aurora 90 Barrel" attachments (these two having same cocking tube length as each other, and almost the same barrel length), or HK33K-esque length (shorter than proper, but longer than the game's default) with the "Lach-12 Barrel".

It feeds from translucent 30-round magazines by default, but it can also use 20-round magazines (that hold 15 rounds), 40-round extended magazines or a 60-round drum inspired by the X-Products drum available for the G3 family of rifles.

Worth noting is that all the magazines that are either translucent or have windows on their side only render the top bullet during reloads, as you can see with the one on the left. The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done; this was fixed sometime after the Season 1 update. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

==HS Produkt VHS-K2==
A heavily stylized [[HS Produkt VHS-K2]] with a Springfield Armory Hellion-style trigger guard and pistol grip was added in Season 4 as the "Tempus Razorback." The top rail assembly resembles that of the [[FB MSBS Grot|FB MSBS Grot B]] (alongside the "TA ERGO" stock option), and the charging handle is also similar to the Grot B's, though moved forward over the fire control area. The rifle can equip the VHS-2's integral optic carry handle, tied to the "17" IO-XL" barrel attachment; this barrel is longer than standard, roughly between the VHS-K2 and VHS-D2. The "13" Frenzy IX" barrel features a shorter optics rail as well as a unique red dot sight which replaces the ironsights; this sight can itself be replaced by other optics. The default empty reload animation has an interesting dynamic feature - normally, the charging handle is used, but interrupting it by swapping or sprinting will result in the operator using the bolt release after the interruption.

==LoneStar Future Weapons RM277==
A [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based bullpup rifle was added to the battle rifles class in Season 3 under the name "Cronen Squall". It is depicted as a heavily stylized version of the first prototype, noticeable by having a rear magazine release. However, it also has two buttons near the trigger group that act as bolt release buttons instead of magazine release buttons, a black cheek rest, switchable ejection ports and an enlarged rear similar to that of the [[Desert Tech Micro Dynamic Rifle]]. It is chambered in "6.8 Wrath", an in-universe version of 6.8x51mm SIG FURY, which is the cartridge of the [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] (now designated as the XM7) that prevailed over the RM277 in the NGSW trials.

The gun uses conventional full brass case ammo like the civilian/training ammo by default but a 6.8 Composite ammo option is also available, bringing it back to the original 6.8mm TVCM cartridge that the RM277 was chambered in. Beside that, Frangible and Hollowpoint ammo options give the 6.8mm SIG FURY cartridge its well-known hybrid case (these options are correct as currently, available hybrid-case ammo to the civilian market is those two options). It is fed by default using 20-round L7 AWM magazines with a 30-rounder and a 50-round Magpul D-50 drum magazine also available; the rifle can also equip its proprietary micro flow-through Brevis III suppressor.

While the real rifle fires from a closed bolt in semi-auto and an open bolt in full-auto, its in-game incarnation is depicted as always firing from an open bolt (with the same firing delay given to all other open bolt weapons), though inconsistent with this, the empty reload animation features the player character using the bolt release as if the rifle were firing from a closed bolt. The out-of-ammo inspect animation is also consistent with the gun always being open bolt, beginning with the trigger being pulled to dry-fire the rifle. In order for the rifle to at least be internally consistent to its fictional always-open-bolt self, the empty reload animation should instead not use the bolt release, and simply swap mags like a non-empty reload.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12.5" barrel appears as the "M4", based on the [[Geissele Super Duty|Geissele M4A1 URG-I]] (also informally known as the M4A1 "Block III") used by USASOC and even some Navy SEAL operators. The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard depicted with an 11.5" length, a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40-round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine plastic handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight with an added rail underneath and a small section of picatinny rail mounted on the right side of the gas block, essentially turning it into a pseudo-[[M4A1]]. The “Tempus High Tower 20" Barrel” attachment gives it a KAC M5 RAS/20" barrel/AR front sight, making it into a pseudo-[[M16A3]] when combined with the "Demo Precision Elite Factory" stock. Pairing this barrel with an M203 automatically swaps the rail system for the classic M203 heatshield, previously its own separate attachment in ''MW19''; this also happens on the game's M16, which features this barrel attachment by default.

Other barrel options include the “7.5" Tempus Firebrand”, the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16-inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the “11.5" T-H4 Barrel”, which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18/RIS II rail and a 10.3-inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament, which is the in-universe version of Knight's Armament Company based on the knight armored glove and mace logo.

==="Flatline"===
The same futuristic VLTOR/Magpul themed M4A1 Carbine from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare|Infinite Warfare]]'' appears as the "Flatline" blueprint available for the in-game M4, named after the Epic rarity variant of the same name for the fictional "NV4" assault rifle (although not modeled after the actual variant that appears in that game). While both of the upper and lower receivers are retained, the handguard and sights are not and the muzzle, magazine, and stock are modeled after the ''MWII''’s variant instead, albeit rethemed to better match the NV4 itself.

[[File:MW22 M4 Flatline 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle in-game, though .458 SOCOM is more of an oversized intermediate cartridge.

The rifle appears to be built on an otherwise generic milspec M16 lower, a la the default "M4" in-game, but with aesthetic similarities to the "XRK M4" from ''Modern Warfare'' (based on a Radian Weapons receiver) on the left side around the magazine well. The left side of the upper receiver bears a vague resemblance to a Mega Arms GTR-3H with grooves similar to the JP Enterprises CTR-02, but with said grooves cut in the opposite direction; the right side appears to be based on a Wilson Combat Stripped Billet AR-15 upper or a CMMG MkW-15 upper.

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10-round magazines.

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classified as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an 18" Mk 14 EBR barrel by default, and can be modified with a standard M14's barrel via the “22" Factory Fourteen Barrel” option, as well as a “16" Chrome-Lined RFX40 Barrel” similar to the SOCOM 16. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options. All box magazine options for both M14s are loaded with 5 rounds less than their real capacities a la the faux SCAR Mk 20 in the game.

==M14 (in Sage EBR chassis)==
The marksman rifle-classed "EBR-14" returns from the previous game, this time setup akin an M14 in a Sage EBR chassis. It can be identified as such by the 22" barrel and the select-fire lever, though the latter is unused; the weapon is only used in semi-automatic mode in-game. It uses 10-round mags by default, with 15 and 20-round extended magazines available.

===Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR===

==Malyuk==
The [[Malyuk]] was added in Season 6 as the "TR-76 Geist". Despite that name, the rifle's markings seem to show its in-universe name as "Usenko", as well as correctly being marked as made in Ukraine.

==Marlin Model 336==
The [[Marlin Model 336]] appears as the "Lockwood Mk2", under the marksman rifles class. It is depicted as being chambered in the .45-70 Government cartridge, like the [[Marlin Model 1895]] that previously appeared in ''Modern Warfare'' as the "MK2 Carbine", but this time the shape of the ejection port indicates that it is a Model 336. It features the same basic ammo options as the other marksman rifles; notably, this includes armor-piercing ammo - while .45-70 AP rounds do exist (e.g. Lehigh Defense's X-Treme Penetrator rounds), the ones in-game are visually the same as the other calibers (likely for consistency's sake), with a black-finished case, a silver jacket, and a black spitzer-type point. Realistically, loading spitzer-pointed rounds in a tube magazine could lead to a chain-detonation (i.e. one round's point impacting the next round's primer), blowing the entire magazine tube apart.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] returns from the previous game as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel of 10 inches (which is not a standard length on the real VIRTUS). While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs, in fact being Rodolfo's signature weapon throughout the campaign (with a distinct two tone finish resembling the classic ''MW2'' ACR). It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1. Which can be unlocked by either completing its unlock challenge or via DMZ, where it can either be obtained by the Chemist boss agent (who uses the "Health Hazard" blueprint, which can also be unlocked with the gun), enemy agents in Building 21 or through players, enemy or friendly. If the player successfully extracts with the MCX, it will be unlocked in all game modes, as well as the aforementioned blueprint if obtained. Purchasing a bundle that has the MCX in it will also unlock the weapon.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards. For magazines, a translucent 30-round magazine is available by default with a PMAG-40 holding 45 rounds and the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine as alternative options. On an interesting note: when using the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine, the character can be seen putting the spent magazine into the plate carrier's pouches instead of the battle belt when performing a tactical reload.

In the intro cutscene for the campaign mission "Ghost Team", there is a picture of three Shadow Company operatives, with one of them holding an MCX VIRTUS with a more correctly modeled handguard.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS (.300 Blackout)==
A shorter-barreled (approximately 6.75 inches), .300 AAC Blackout version of the aforementioned MCX VIRTUS was added during Season 5 as the "M13C". While it is intended to pass for a [[SIG-Sauer MCX Rattler]], judging by the "ar_ralpha" internal file name and the chambering, it is actually an MCX VIRTUS with a stylized handguard, as evidenced by the forward assist and the barrel length.

==SIG-Sauer MCX / Honey Badger hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). However, the model in the game lacks a gas tube when previewing the weapon in the Gunsmith menu, either being a mistake or showing that the weapon is using direct blowback to operate (which is concerningly doable considering other higher-pressured cartridges being able to do it with a much heavier bolt carrier group). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is Simon "Ghost" Riley's main weapon throughout the campaign, where it is briefly available when the player takes control of him during the opening mission (with the unsuppressed “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

As with the KRISS Vector above, firing the weapon will not produce tracers and killing enemies with the Honey Badger hides skull indicators, thanks to its use of .300 AAC Blackout ammunition.

As with the MCX above, there are several ways to unlock the Honey Badger, either through purchasing a bundle that has it (along with the blueprint), completing its unlock challenge or through DMZ, where the player can scavenge a Honey Badger there. The Building 21 map is also a useful location in finding the carbine, as enemy agents use it on occasion or through the loot pools.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Accuracy International AW50==
The [[Accuracy International AW50]] appears as the "Victus XMR"; it is available in Season 1 under the Imperatorium platform. It is worth noting (as with the AR-57) that the AW50 was planned for the original ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'' game, but only its code and firing sound (which sounds similar to the M82A1 in that game) are left as the weapon was scrapped, and it wasn't added to the ''Call of Duty'' series proper until ''MWII''.

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", .300 Winchester Magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively, and all other MRADs found in the story have the same naming issue.

==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
The [[Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] was added in Season 3, under the name "FJX Imperium". It is chambered in ".408 PACE", the analogue to the real life .408 CheyTac round. For laser attachments, the M200 uses the small "tube"-style laser set rather than the PEQ Box-style set, and despite the forward top rail being present they attach to the right side, thus it's unfortunately not possible to replicate the PEQ-2 attached to the original MW2's Intervention.

==Knight's Armament SR-25 E2 PR==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25|Knight's Armament SR-25 PR]] is the mid-season weapon in Season 2 Reloaded. It was added as a marksman rifle part of the M4 platform, under the name "Tempus Torrent". The rifle's SOPMOD-style stock can be equipped on every other member of the M4 platform, while its forend customization is split between a combination of the Barrel and Guard categories. The Guard category consists of four (including default) rail system options, one of which being a monolithic upper receiver; the "Torrent Tac Guard" resembles the URX 3 rail. The Barrel category includes standard, shorter, and longer options, as well as the “14" Chroma LRS” which is the URX / "Tac Guard" rail system (this time without rail covers) paired with an M110- / Mk 11-style suppressor, and a short barrel paired with a fifth type of rail system. The "Torrent MOC-IV" forend is based on a VLTOR CAS-V handguard that rather unfortunately leaves the gas tube exposed.

Using the "Torrent Tac Guard" and “16" Tour RP” allows for a SR-25 ECC style build.

==Remington Model 700 (in custom chassis)==
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is a [[Remington Model 700]] variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. The resulting model has a short barrel reminiscent of the Remington 700 PCR SBR, a stylized-to-fit MDT chassis similar to the Israeli-modernized M24, and a stock of the Remington 700 PCR Enhanced. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .308 Winchester, befitting its status as a civilian rifle.

==Remington Mk 13 Mod 0==
A stylized [[Remington Mk 13 Mod 0]] appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the Remington Mk 13 Mod 0. It can be identified by the McMillan A2 stock, the .300 Winchester Magnum chambering and the fact that it appears as a variant to the aforementioned [[M24 SWS]] due to both using the action of the [[Remington Model 700]].

==Walther WA 2000==
The [[Walther WA 2000]] was added in Season 5 as the "Carrack .300". The model depicted is a hybrid of the first and second generation models, featuring the muzzle device of the former and stock design of the latter (with an added rear monopod). The "Carrack Palm" attachment adds the rifle's otherwise-missing palm rest. Like the game's M200 Intervention, the WA 2000 can deploy its integrated bipod through use of a barrel attachment. The “30" Flintline” barrel gives the rifle the second generation WA 2000 barrel length and flash hider, and likewise features a version with the bipod deployed. The rifle's scope comes in two variations, default having a flipped open lens cover (as in ''MW2''), while an unlockable version replaces this with a rubber eye piece (which provides a full-screen style view). As with all of the other default optics in the game, these can be equipped on other sniper rifles as well.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon, fitted with a laser sight for aiming. In certain events (the Shadow Siege limited-time event to name one), the weapon carries 200 rounds, which can be reloaded with unlimited spare ammo.

An unusable Minigun with a slotted flash hider can be found inside a building in the campaign mission "Kill or Capture".

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG. The "Icarus" name is likely derived from the manufacturer's original name "Ares;" as both are figures from Greek mythology.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment. It is also correctly depicted as a closed-bolt weapon, having no trigger delay compared to the open-bolt machine guns in the game.

In the campaign, it's correctly used by the Mexican Army.

===Vollmer HK51-B===
A [[Vollmer HK51-B]] lookalike can be built with the short “10.6" Lachstrike Barrel.”

==IWI Negev NG7==
The [[IWI Negev NG7]] appears in-game as the "SAKIN MG38." It is relatively uncommon in the story, though one is present in the bed of Price's truck during "Violence and Timing."
[[File:IWI Negev NG7.jpg|thumb|none|450px|IWI Negev NG7 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] is available in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants. Originally, when equipping the RPK's unique bipod attachment (which simply deploys the bipod) the gun would also gain an unnecessary picatinny rail under the handguard (presumably due to being in the underbarrel slot, like foregrips), however this was fixed with the Season 3 Reloaded update.
[[File:AES 10B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Century Arms AES 10B - 7.62x39mm. This is a US import version of the Romanian PM md. 64]]
[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

==SIG-Sauer MG 338==
The [[SIG-Sauer MG 338]]'s 2020 prototype returns from ''Modern Warfare'', still named the "RAAL MG" (which stands for Reconnaissance Auxiliary Assault Lightweight Machine Gun). It uses essentially the same model from the previous game complete with the SIG-Sauer LMG-6.8 style stock and the A2 grip.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56", and is incorrectly depicted with an AUG A3's bolt release. It feeds by default from the same 60-round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however these seem to be non-STANAG/AUG-adapted as the magazines all don't have the cutout for the magazine catch to interface with. It can also equip a fictional non-STANAG polymer MAG5-100 as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.

=Launchers=
Having the underbarrel grenade launcher attached will replace the alternate firing mode (either semi-auto on most weapons or full-auto on some battle rifles) with the grenade launcher mode if available. Picking up a weapon with a UBGL attached or switching to it in the campaign designates the grenade launcher as the "M203", regardless of what model of grenade launcher actually is. The same applies to multiplayer, though it is referred to as "KL40-M2" (GP-25).

==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "STRELA-P".

==Hybrid Flare Pistol==
A fictional hybrid flare pistol seemingly mostly based on the [[Orion Flare Gun]] (with the grips of the 12-gauge version, but sized more similarly to the 25mm variant, and with parts of both variants' color schemes), with elements of the [[Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V]] (namely the trigger guard and the rounding on the front of the frame), and an overhanging breech similar to the [[Webley & Scott No. 3 Mk. I]] is available in Warzone, where it is used to signal for the re-deployment of teammates.

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign as the "REV G-80" (while in Spec Ops, Warzone Battle Royale, DMZ and multiplayer it's named "RGL-80"), firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980. It appears as a rare weapon during the Gun Game gamemode in multiplayer, although not available in other modes.

The AV-140 MSGL is given to Garrick in "Violence and Timing," and some MSGLs can be found in the watchtower at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the dubious ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
As with ''Modern Warfare'', the "Flash Grenade" in the game is a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]. Many of the playable operators are depicted with this grenade, either in a pouch or hanging from their webbing with elastic bands attached. Picking up the flashbang in the campaign incorrectly dubs it as the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]". Toggling the "Inverted Flash" option on in the game's settings will make the screen go black when flashed, as opposed to white in its original function.

==Mk.V CN Gas Grenade==
Using the same model as with the previous installment, a modernized depiction of the American [[Mk.V CN Gas Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "Gas Grenade".

==M83 Smoke Grenade==
An [[M83 Smoke Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "Smoke Grenade". As with the M18 Smoke Grenade before, it is used to mark locations for some killstreaks/scorestreaks.
[[File:M87.JPG|thumb|none|150px|M83 TA smoke grenade]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
A fictionalized [[M67 Hand Grenade]] with a different fuse design resembling [[RGO/RGN fragmentation grenade|RGO/RGN]] is featured in the game as the "Frag Grenade". Picking up the frag grenade in the campaign refers to it as "M67 Frag".

==M18A1 Claymore==
A fictionalized [[M18A1 Claymore]] using tripod legs instead of fold-open scissor-legs is featured in the game as the "Claymore", once again using laser tripwire detonators.
[[File:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]

==Hybrid Bouncing Mine==
The "Proximity Mine" returns in ''MWII'' with an a similar albeit altered look from the first game. It resembles less of its real-life counterparts as with ''MW19''. It is accurately described as a "proximity-triggered explosive", as opposed to a "pressure-triggered" explosive in the previous installment.
[[File:Mwiiproxymineloadout.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Proxy Mine" in the loadout screen.]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==AGM-114 Hellfire==
Just like Modern Warfare 2019, the AGM-114 Hellfire missile appears on the AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter and a slightly fictionalized Hellfire is also a part of the "Cruise Missile" killstreak, parented to a Storm Shadow/AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon hybrid shell. These also appear to be mounted on the wing tips of the "Gunship" killstreak, which might explain the steerable 105mm rounds.

==Bushmaster M242 Chaingun==
What appears to be fictionalized [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]]s are mounted and used on the M2A4 Bradley IFV (formerly called Light Tank) armored vehicles. The model is carried over from Modern Warfare 2019 and description of the prior vehicle states that the cannon is chambered in 30mm. The "APC" (which appears to be a Boxer APC with the Stryker 30mm turret) also appears to mount the M242 Chaingun, chambered in 30mm.

==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun appears as the Sentry Gun killstreak in multiplayer; one of the few instances of the Sentry Gun not being some kind of a minigun in the series. A stockless M240 is used in the RWS turret atop the Merkava Mk.4 - CV90 "frankentank".
[[File:M240-1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|FN M240B with newer style lower handguard - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed fictional twin barrel [[M197 Vulcan]] turret, to fulfill the series' proud lineage of VTOL jets with swiveling gun turrets that hover around a vicinity and engage infantry targets.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20x102mm]]

A-10 Thunderbolt IIs return as the "Precision Airstrike" killstreak, performed with their [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] rotary cannons.
[[File:GAU-8 Avenger contrast.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger - 30x173mm]]

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D/E Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s, with some apparently having two at the same time. The double-M230 Apaches appear in the campaign missions "Kill or Capture" and "Ghost Team."

==M102 105mm Howitzer==
The returning psudo-AC-130 "Gunship" also mounts the [[M102 Howitzer|M102 105mm howitzer]]. This gun appears prominently in the pre-rendered cutscenes of the interior of the gunship in the "Close Air" and "Hardpoint" missions, but its functionality is replaced by AGM-114 Hellfire style missiles in gameplay.

==Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher==
A modified version of the [[Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher]] returns from ''MW2019'', this time mounted to the "MRAP" eight wheeled gun trucks added in Season 5. The weapon is controlled via a RWS turret during gameplay.

==Minigun==
Some kind of minigun is mounted on the "Wheelson" UGV killstreak unlike the auto grenade launchers used on the Wheelsons in ''Modern Warfare''.

==Mk44 Bushmaster GAU-23/A==
The "Gunship"'s AC-130J-based loadout includes the Mk44 Bushmaster 30mm GAU-23/A gun. It functions akin the Bofors 40mm seen previously.

[[File:Mwiibofors40mm1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the GAU-23/A.]]

==Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B==
Mil Mi-24V "Hind" helicopters appear in ''MWII'' and feature the nose mounted [[Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B]] rotary cannons. Compared to the earlier games, the Mi-24 also correctly only has this chin gun, whereas unused 23/30mm twin GSh cannons were present in the original trilogy.
[[File:YakB-127mm.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B - 12.7x108mm]]

==Hybrid Reverse Draw Crossbow==
A slightly modified version of the reverse draw crossbow reappears from the previous game. It appears as a bonus weapon unlocked in safes in the missions "El Sin Nombre" and "Alone", and it is available in multiplayer as part of Season 2. It is unlocked by completing the unlock challenge or by buying a bundle in the store that has the blueprint available.

=Unusable Weapons=

==Beretta M9A3==
The [[Beretta M9A3]] appears on Gus' skin "El Santo" in the shoulder holster. It uses the "Renetti" model from ''Modern Warfare'' with the "Veins of Gold" blueprint grips. It appears to be missing the hammer, however.

==Glock 18C / Arsenal Firearms Strike One hybrid==
A hybrid pistol appears on Ghost's "Gilded Reaper" skin. It is actually one of the blueprints of the "X16" ([[Glock 21]]) from ''Modern Warfare'', which has an [[Arsenal Firearms Strike One]]-style frame combined with the "Singuard Arms Featherweight" barrel, the latter consisting of a [[Glock 18C]]'s slide with custom cutouts on the side.

==Kimber Custom TLE/RL II==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in the "Ghosting Everyone" loading screen and the "Shaded Ghost" calling card.

Additionally, a Kimber is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic Colt M1911-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

==STI Tactical==
Two unusable STI 2011 pistols resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire" outside the fish hatchery. It uses the model of the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911 Series#SIG-Sauer 1911 Traditional TACOPS|SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

Alex T Snow: I feel it should also be noted that the dual triggers are directly in line with each other, which makes pulling the rear one... difficult.

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II''''' is the nineteenth installment in the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is a direct sequel to ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'', and it was released on October 28, 2022.

Like ''Modern Warfare 2019'', the game is comprised of four main modes: the traditional singleplayer campaign, multiplayer, Spec Ops and Warzone 2.0 with additional DMZ mode.

The singleplayer story is the continuation of ''Modern Warfare''’s storyline, following the newly-formed elite multinational Task Force 141 in their continuing fight against the terrorist organization Al-Qatala, who have formed an alliance with the deadly Las Almas drug cartel.

The multiplayer is the standard attraction of the ''Call of Duty'' franchise, along with PvE Spec Ops missions. A new submode to Spec Ops are Raids, which are multi-stage, high-risk high-reward episodic long levels mixed with cooperative combat and puzzle-solving. As of March 2023, "Atomgrad" is the only available Raid in the game, along with four episodes which take place after the events of ''Modern Warfare'' and by extension, some events of Warzone 1.0 before the release of ''Black Ops: Cold War''.

Following on the heels of ''Warzone'', '''''Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0''''' is a standalone free-to-play gamemode that expands upon the original mode with new features and new maps, with additional maps being added later seasons. In addition, Warzone 2.0 also includes the DMZ submode, an extraction-type PvPvE gamemode where players complete faction quests, scavenge for weapons and loots, fend off against enemy NPCs as well as players and exfiltrate the map alive, with no set objective.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II}}

__TOC__ 

=Overview=
The weapon system in ''Modern Warfare II'' is a modified version of the weapons and Gunsmith system found in ''Modern Warfare'', with a limit of five mod slots. Primary weapons are divided into seven types: submachine guns, assault rifles, shotguns, battle rifles (high damage, high recoil select-fire rifles with low capacity), marksman rifles (high damage, accurate, exclusively semi-auto/manually-operated rifles, with iron sights), light machine guns, and sniper rifles. Weapon inspection animations are more intricate than it was in ''Modern Warfare'', with the user often checking the magazine and/or chamber in each of the inspect animations. The current ammunition type (hollow points, incendiary rounds and the like) can also be seen. As of Season 1, inspect animations now correctly account for if the weapon is empty or not; this was not the case during the multiplayer beta and launch builds of the game.

Weapon reloads are now "staged", meaning if the player performs an action that would cancel a reload (as with previous entries), the reload animation will resume to its previous state until the magazine/last round is either inserted (for non-empty reloads) or when the weapon is chambered. Underbarrel grenade launcher reloads are not affected by this, however.

Reaching the maximum level of a weapon unlocks Weapon Tuning, wherein the player can finetune various attachments to be slightly better at one statistic at the cost of another. Various store blueprints come with predetermined "pro-tuned" attachments; in which the player cannot modify. Pro-tuned attachments are reset if the player modifies their attachments or its tuning.

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments. It is possible to create a loadout with two similar weapons with marginally different stats, such as having the AUG A3 and AUG HBAR variant in the same loadout, with similar attachment setups. Post-release weapons in existing weapon platforms are not unlocked by progressing the specific weapon level required, as those are completed through various tasks instead.

The current Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* ISO Platform (B&T APC family)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Sakin G Series (Desert Eagle variants)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

Through the use of grip attachments, the "Pistol Fastdraw" benefit (previously known as "Tactical Pistol Raise") introduced in ''MWII'' is the ability to instantly draw the player's sidearm without fully lowering their primary weapon. Dual-wielding makes a return in ''Modern Warfare II'', although it is regulated to the grip attachment of the weapon instead of being a weapon perk and it's only restricted to handguns exclusively (including TEC-9 hybrid machine pistol).

Various executions (finishing moves) that use a firearm in this game now involve other weapon types, in addition to a pistol unlike in prior games. If the player has a weapon of the same class (assault rifle, SMG, etc) as a given execution's default weapon, the player's custom weapon will be featured instead.

''Modern Warfare II'' introduces extensive and realistic water physics, a significant improvement over ''Black Ops: Cold War'', the previous game in the series to feature water mechanics. Unlike in ''Cold War'', primary weapons can't be fired underwater and only handguns can, albeit with a reduced efficiency. Shooting into water and explosions cause ripples and mines float when thrown onto water. When swimming on the surface, water flows into the weapon's details and the weapon along with its user can get wet.

Weapon and inventory management in Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale is similar to its previous iteration, where in players are airdropped with weak weapons, scavenge weapons all over the game world and procure their own loadout weapons in a supply drop. DMZ on the other hand is similar to "extraction" games of a similar fashion. The player is given three insured weapon slots (one available at the start, the other two require metagame upgrades), which the player can customize and they do not get lost if they leave it in the game world (should the player die or exchange for a new weapon, even if the enemy picks up the weapon), though it has a cooldown which can be decreased by successful extractions, through upgrades, through certain in-game weapon blueprints (that are obtained through bundles) or by submitting items into a "dead drop" (which is an interactable dumpster) in certain locations of the map. In addition, the player has a number of temporary "contraband" weapon slots which are the weapons brought by the player upon a successful extraction. These weapons will be lost if they are dropped, although they can be destroyed in the game's lobby to free up space for more contraband weapons. Firearms can be customized in a Workbench while on a raid, albeit with a fee of credits obtained throughout the round and a limited selection of attachments.

As before, weapons in both Warzone 2.0 Battle Royale and DMZ can be acquired through enemies (either NPC bots or player operatives) or through various loot containers all over the map; contraband weapons from DMZ can also be obtained by completing various faction missions. Also, if the player extracts with a weapon that they haven't unlocked yet, the weapon will be immediately unlocked for free without the player level or weapon platform requirement.

The method of unlocking cosmetic camouflages was overhauled in ''MWII'' compared to its predecessors. Every weapon has four unique camouflages (with only one unique camo for every launcher), each with their easy challenges in order to unlock them. Once the specific camo is unlocked, it can be used in every weapon available, streamlining the process of the camo grind from previous games. Unlocking all base camouflages for the current weapon allows the player to progress through the mastery camo challenges.

==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] returns as the ".50 GS" and is said to be manufactured by Sakin ("Sakin" meaning "Knife" in Hebrew, alluding to the knife in the logo of IMI/IWI). The new model is a bit more stylized and features Picatinny rails on the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, a skeletonized hammer, and has a two-tone finish that is basically the reverse of the Desert Eagle in the original ''[[Modern Warfare 2]]''; the ''MW2'' pistol had a chrome frame and trigger, while the ''MWII'' pistol has a chrome slide, barrel, and hammer. It is frequently used by Las Almas cartel members.

The standard magazine capacity is of 7 rounds, but extended baseplates that take the capacity to 10 or 13 rounds are available. The weapon can be modified with a ported barrel via the "SA Comp Barrel".

=="GS Magna"==
A Desert Eagle modified (presumably by cartel members) to fire full-auto based on the "Thunderbird" Desert Eagle made by YouTuber Mr.Wilk was added as a separate weapon in Season 3 Reloaded, as the "GS Magna". Aesthetically, the pistols differs from the game's standard Desert Eagle by featuring a ported barrel, different grip texture, a tan/bronze-like finish, and different markings. In gameplay terms, it cannot equip lasers/lights or trigger attachments, but can instead use vertical foregrips.

==Glock 17 MOS==
The "X12", manufactured by the in-game XRK, is a stylized [[Glock 17|Glock 17 MOS]]. It is based on a 5th generation version with front slide serrations, though it is depicted with two pins above the trigger like the Gen 3 and Gen 4 models (as opposed to one pin for the Gen 5). It's equipped with a plate system to mount red dots, just like the real Glock MOS System and many of its stylized parts include the rounded bottom beaver-tail, the MIL-STD 19-13 rail, the hinged trigger (which turns into a more Glock-style one with some customization options), a small port on top of the slide just rear of the front sight and the grip texture.

It can be fitted with a Flux Defense Brace, called "XRK Pistol Stock". It feeds by default from Magpul 17 round Glock magazines with a grey follower, a +7 extended baseplate that changes the follower color to orange, a 33-round stick magazine stylized to look like a Kriss MagEx2 (that's supposed to hold 40 rounds) and a Magpul PMAG D-50 GL9 50 round drum magazine. The same options are available for the Glock 18.

Judging by the square hole in the pistol's frame, where a QR code is painted out, the XRK pistol platform seems to be modular just like the [[SIG-Sauer P320]] or the ZEV OZ-9.

It is frequently used by Las Almas Cartel members, Soap, Rodolfo and Russian Konni PMCs in the campaign. Glocks are also seen in many character's holsters, including Ghost and Alejandro.

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", as part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and ''MW19''’s "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

In the campaign it's seen used by Russian PMCs and the Mexican Army (which is inaccurate, as the latter are issued the [[Beretta 92FS]] or the [[SIG-Sauer P226]]).

[[File:Mw22 x13 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The tan Glock 18 in the gunsmith preview screen. The markings here are different from the X12, them being "3S-A" and adding an "AUTO" writing next to the serial number.]]

Or maybe it's just a safety and the gun is full-auto only, as it cannot be switched to semi-auto in gameplay.]]
[[File:Mw 22 x13 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another small change from the X12 are the standard iron sights, which now have a green front post.]]

===Glock 18 (in carbine conversion kit)===
Using the "Impact Point" barrel attachment places the X13 inside a carbine conversion kit. The kit resembles the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]] with its compact size and AR-15 style T-handle.

===Glock 18 (3D printed)===
3D printed Glock pistols appear in the hands of terrorists in the post-credits scene. A complete version of this cutscene also appears in the sequel, ''Modern Warfare III''. The pistols are likely based on the "X13 Auto" model, as they feature a selector switch on the right side of the slide.

In the scene, a terrorist assembles a 3D printed Glock pistol in a plane cabin mid-flight by smuggling individual gun components onto the plane separately. The individual parts shown include a metal firing pin (hidden in the safety belt buckle), a metal barrel (hidden in a flashlight), a trigger (disguised in a necklace), a polymer slide and a polymer frame (both hidden on the person), and a metal magazine with ammunition (hidden underneath a plate cloche).

Though dramatic, the scene is logistically unrealistic, as disassembled firearm components likely still would've been detected by airport security, and the insider collaboration required for hiding the gun parts on the plane in the first place likely would've also allowed for a full gun to be smuggled. Additionally, the metal parts shown would be insufficient to assemble a functional gun - while 3D-printed Glock frames do exist, they use metal fire control parts, metal springs, metal locking blocks inserted into the frame, and (perhaps most crucially) metal slides.

The whole thing might have been inspired by videos such as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4dBuPJ9p7A story by VICE about printing a Glock], though, even that particular video shows the complexities involved with the assembly.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
A [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. At launch, the trigger was not animated during the decocking sequence, though this has since been patched. When using the double-action-only trigger group, the trigger is still incorrectly in the more rearward single action position, however. It feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

Like the two Glock variants, the P220 features a slide equipped with a cut for micro red dot optics (that mount directly onto the slide, instead of having different plates between the slide and the optic, which would mean that either all the MRDs in the game share the same mounting system or the cut is universal), a feature not available out of the box on the real SIG.

It seems to be a favorite of various members of TF 141 and US MARSOC in "Kill or Capture" are seen with the pistols in their holsters instead of the more fitting M45A1 or the Glock 19 (which could have been made as the X14 in-game).

===SIG-Sauer P220 X-Six===
Fitting the P220 with the "Matuzek Cottonmouth Barrel" (which is stated to be 140mm long, while the X-Six's is 153mm long), the "Bruen RSH-80 Grip" and the "XRX Heavy V3" trigger group will make it somewhat resemble the P220 X-Six, retaining the double-action trigger mechanism and black standard frame.

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] appears as the "Basilisk" (or "Centum 5" in pre-release). The barrel appears to be somewhere between the 4 and 8 inch barrel options for the real Model 500, most likely 6 inches. Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]''’s Taurus Raging Hunter, unfired rounds in the chamber are retained while reloading. Having the "Fast Reload" perk or "Akimbo" attachment omits retaining rounds entirely, but keeps it in the player's ammunition pool.

The primers will always appear as intact, however.]]

==Staccato P==
The [[STI 1911 Series|Staccato P]] was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "9mm Daemon". Its default magazine holds 15 rounds (the real Staccato mag holds 17), options for 20 and 26 round magazines are also available. The gun can be extensively customized with parts inspired by various custom 2011 gunmakers. A barrel option gives the Daemon a frame mounted red dot, charging handle and a competition slide with a compensator, a setup commonly found on IPSC Open race guns; this slide also changes the equip/first-draw animation from a twirl followed by chambering the pistol, to simply chambering the pistol using the charging handle. A first in the series, the gun can be fitted with a magwell (in the Grip slot), which negates the need for the Sleight of Hand perk and makes the gun reload faster by default. When drawing and holstering the pistol, the manual thumb safety is used, although in a bit of a dramatic way when it comes to stowing away the weapon.
The gun has very high hip-fire accuracy, suggested by how close the operator holds it, in a Central Axis Relock manner, it manages to have very low recoil, even less than the Glock 17, which has virtually none, and a fast fire rate by default, overall a great 9mm secondary.

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with a traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear and as capable of being chambered from empty with the existing bolt release, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle (that can be changed to the left with the bolt release removed from the lower receiver) and no automatic bolt hold open, though it can be manually locked to the rear using the existing lower's bolt release lever. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system, probably based on the Gen 2 handguard (although the Gen 2 handguard is still a quad-rail design with cooling slits, not a proper M-LOK design) or the new M-LOK ULT rails on current production models (though seeming to lack the QD cup and dedicated 1913 picatinny rails on the bottom which would negate the ability to put the adapters that are there that are on the model). It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock (which would not be possible on the real gun as the stock requires a shortened proprietary combined bolt carrier + buffer to use) and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

On a related note, it is not the first time that the AR-57 was conceived into the ''Call of Duty'' series, as it was planned to be added in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' as a [[Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops II#AR-57|usable weapon]]. It was however, eventually replaced by a [[Call of Duty: Black Ops II#"PDW-57"|fictional variant]] of the P90 before the game's release.

==Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC45|Brügger & Thomet APC45 PRO]] was added in Season 4 as the "ISO 45". It retains some of the animations of the previous "ISO" submachine gun in ''Modern Warfare 2019''. It is also stylized similarly to it, including the upper receiver being extended to the rear (albeit not as much as its ''MW19'' counterpart). By default, it is modeled with the "FTAC 225mm Dominator" barrel from ''Modern Warfare'', which is an extended barrel of intermediate length between the APC45/APC9 and the APC9-P. It can be modified to resemble an APC45 SD with the “16" XLB-S” barrel, or an APC9 K with the “4" Frame S-1” barrel and "SK-3 Cheetah" stock.

==Brügger & Thomet APC9 K PRO G==
In addition to the aforementioned APC45, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9 K PRO G]] returns from ''Modern Warfare''. It was added in Season 6 under the name "ISO 9mm".

==FN P90 TR==
A stylized [[FN P90 TR]] (inspired by some blueprints from ''Modern Warfare'' with the grip design based on that of the [[Magpul PDR-C]]) appears as the "PDSW 528" as part of the Tactique Defense platform. The "528" designation is an abridgement of its '''5'''.7x'''28'''mm caliber. The stylized magazine from those blueprints is now transparent, and tracks the feeding ammunition. The P90 TR can be turned into a regular P90 with its integrated optic, however unlike ''MW19'' this attachment isn't in the Optic category, but rather a new "Rail" category that allows for three different upper receivers: The (stylized) P90 TR upper by default, the P90 upper with optic, or the aftermarket EFFEN 90 upper with a tiny low profile rail. Equipping the integrated optic upper blocks use the optics attachment category. The longer-than-normal barrel can be returned to its proper length with the “9.5" Duke-30” barrel attachment.

It only fires in full auto in-game; the selector functionality is absent.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3==
The "Lachmann Sub" is a [[Heckler & Koch HK94A3]] chopped and converted to resemble an [[MP5A5]]. The giveaway is that, along with other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform (which is clearly supposed to represent the Heckler & Koch roller-delayed family of weapons), it lacks a paddle magazine release, leaving only the (extended) button release. The game's HK94 has a 3-round burst trigger group installed, as well as an MP5's barrel with attachment lugs. Curiously enough, the trigger group lacks a semi-auto position; accordingly, the weapon can be switched between full-auto and three-round burst during gameplay, but not semi-auto. The in-game weapon also sports a strange cylindrical charging handle that differs from the other weapons in its family.
15, 30 (the default one) and 40 round metal magazines are available, along with a 50 round drum inspired by the Magpul PMAG D-50 MP.

The "Lachmann Pulsar" barrel attachment gives it a short barrel approximating that of an [[MP5K]]. The "LM Cronus Grip" gives it the same [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group as the one seen on ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s MP5 blueprints, with the triangular parts still facing the wrong directions, but this time the selector markings are "S-3-F".

The HK94A3 is mostly used by the Las Almas Cartel and Colonel Vargas' "Los Vaqueros" federal special forces unit in the campaign story.

==Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (with integral suppressor)==
An integrally suppressed version of the aforementioned HK94A3 (intended to pass for an [[MP5SD]]) was added in Season 5 Reloaded as the "Lachmann Shroud". In contrast to its unsuppressed counterpart, it lacks a full-auto option, and is instead fitted with a safe/semi-auto/3-round burst trigger group.

A fictionalized [[Heckler & Koch MP7A2]] appears as the "VEL 46" as part of the LMP platform.
It feeds from 40 round magazines by default, and 30 round stylized magazines, a fictional quadstack 50 rounder and 60 round drum are available to extend the gun's capacity.

==Interdynamic KG-9 / Intratec TEC-9 hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[Interdynamic KG-9]] and the [[Intratec TEC-9]] was added to the handguns class in Season 3 Reloaded as the "FTAC Siege". The weapon has four upper receiver options, most of which have sub-options as well. The standard upper receiver also comes in an extended barrel variant ("Ratchet BE"), an extended barrel and barrel shroud variant ("SuperTac-VI"), and an integrally suppressed variant ("Ratchet BE Tac"). An upper based on the TEC-9 Mini ("Mouse 99") is also available, which blocks the use of grips, optics, and lasers due to its small size. A much longer upper with angled shroud holes comes in standard ("CMRN-50") and integrally suppressed ("NST-81", previously known as "STF-U") variations, and a lightweight upper with rectangular holes and entirely different iron sights are also options.

The gun can equip the wire stock and foregrip of the KG-9's full-auto sibling, the MP-9. Other stock and grip options are available, including an angled metal foregrip highly reminiscent of the [[Beretta 93R]]. A unique thread-on suppressor is also available, and the SMG feeds from 32-round mags, 20-round mags, 50-round drums, or 72-round drums. As of Season 4, it can be dual-wielded, and uniquely, it features an on-screen reload animation when reloading the weapon while akimbo; though it is not the first game that does this, ''[[Call of Duty 2: Big Red One]]'' and ''Call of Duty: Mobile'' both feature such akimbo reload animations for pistols and the Vector respectively.

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", which is still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver and once again has a massively shrunk-down Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for, thus resulting in the weapon having actual muzzle rise. As with the P220 pistol, killing opponents with the Vector will hide death skull indicators with its subsonic .45 ammunition.

The default magazines for the Fennec are KRISS MagEx2's with a 30 round capacity. The two other magazine options are a 13-round Glock 21 magazine underloaded to 12 rounds (it actually does have one less witness hole, a very nice detail) which converts the Fennec to 2-round burst, and a Magpul D-50 9mm Glock drum magazine adapted to .45 ACP and with a 45 round capacity.

The weapon has an extended barrel and handguard, the former similar in length to the 8" export model only available in Ukraine, and the latter seemingly inspired by the KRISS MK1 Modular Rail. Barrel customization options include the “5.5" Fennec Minitac” (a standard Vector's 5.5" barrel), “FTac 8.5" Recon” (actually a 6.5" barrel with a stylized MK5 Modular Rail), and "Fennec Covert Force" (a barrel shroud based on a Vector CRB Enhanced, depicted as an integral suppressor in-game).

Stock options include the "Agile Assault-7 Stock" (based on the early TDI Vector prototype stock) and the "FTac Stock Cap" (a Vector SDP's quick-detach sling swivel).

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[PP-19 Bizon-2]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "Minibak", now with a more correctly modeled receiver, forend and stock. It still uses the earlier Bizon-1's 64-round helical magazine by default, but this time with the magazine front attachment point of the Bizon-2.

==PP-19-01 Vityaz==
The [[PP-19-01 Vityaz]] appears as the "Vaznev-9K". It is fitted with a railed AK-100 series polymer style forend. Prior to the Season 1 update, the Vityaz could not accept any underbarrel accessories in multiplayer. Vityazs with underbarrel grips can be found in the Campaign in the hands of Al-Qatala and Russian PMCs.

In addition to the standard 30-round stick mag the gun feeds from by default, the Vityaz can accept fictional quad-stack 45-round magazines. It can also be modified with a [[Saiga 9]]'s 367mm barrel via the "SA Response III" barrel attachment.

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1. It is part of the "Bruen Ops" platform, suggesting that the in-game manufacturer Bruen (which also manufactures the Bruen Bullpup/AUG platform) is a mishmash of SIG and Steyr.

The optional barrels are the following: “12" Bruen SZ-36” (a fictional-length barrel with an M-LOK handguard that looks like a Midwest Industries / Samson Manufacturing hybrid), “10.5" Bruen Typhon” (an integrally suppressed barrel with an MPX Gen 1 style handguard), “6.5" Bruen Drake” (a 6.5" barrel with a factory MPX-style M-LOK handguard), and “4" Thunderfire” (an [[SIG-Sauer MPX K|MPX K]]'s 4.5" barrel).

The "Battle Worn" blueprint, Alejandro's customized MPX from the campaign, was made unlockable for multiplayer during a time-limited event in Season 5. This blueprint's add-on flaired magwell and titanium nitride-coated bolt also make it ideal for a [[John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum|''John Wick'']] build, something likely intentional on the developers' part given how specific a combination this is.

=Shotguns=
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12." It is used by Shadow Company and Task Force 141 members in the story.

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel, longer competition-style magazine tube, railed and slim forends and a variety of stock options including a field stock option, collapsed and extended stock and a fixed pistol grip stock combination. Interestingly, it is capable of firing Dragon's Breath shells with no issues; while the M4 can fire such shells, they have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds, as such they require manual cycling.

The "Bryson Reverb-55 Stock" gives it a fixed stock similar to Magpul shotgun stocks, and the "419mm Schlager Salvo" and "FSS Frame Stock" are resemble the forend and stock of the pump-action [[FABARM STF 12]].

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story and DMZ. The shotgun received a dual trigger attachment option with Season 6, allowing the player character to fire both barrels simultaneously. To help balance the need to reload after every trigger pull with this attachment, the player character will slide in both shells in simultaneously, as opposed to one after the other in the normal empty reload.

===Side by Side Shotgun===
The "Super Shotgun" blueprint from the DOOM bundle is a [[Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun|sawed-off side by side shotgun]]. As the entire weapon model is replaced, its attachments cannot be customized, though it should be noted that it's statistically identical to the Citori. One of its attachments is the double trigger, added just before this bundle and clearly specifically created to allow the Super Shotgun to function as it should. Faithful to its [[Doom (VG)|source material]], the entire shotgun is animated with the same jittery style as the original DOOM Super Shotgun as opposed to standard interpolation animation used in other weapons, although the animations revert to standard, albeit currently bugged, Citori animations when a camo is applied. Other changes include the original red muzzle flash, its sway pattern, and sound.
[[File:Remington SBS.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Remington Spartan sawed-off shotgun - 12 gauge]]

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube. The updated empty inspect animation even shows correct operation for a Benelli-style semi-automatic shotgun, showing the bolt carrier moving freely without locking back until the operator dry-fires the shotgun and racks it back, causing it to lock open. A Dragon's Breath-equipped model has also been introduced into the game with the release of Season 5 under the name "Corvus Torch".

==IWI Tavor TS12==
The [[IWI Tavor TS12]] was added in Season 4 Reloaded as the "MX Guardian". Unlike its real-life counterpart, the TS12 in-game effectively functions as a shotgun Bizon, sporting a detachable helical/prism magazine instead of the triple 5-round tube cluster of the real life version. Thus, upon reloading, the user simply swaps out the magazine instead of inserting individual shells. The TS12 is also fully automatic by default, with semi-automatic and two-round burst fire trigger packs (probably to simulate a binary trigger) as attachments, unlike the real TS12, which comes in semi-automatic by default (of course with the possibility of homemade trigger packs). Prior to the Season 5 update, the shotgun's in-game description described it as having the real version's three separate rotating magazine tubes.

==Molot Vepr-12==
The [[Vepr-12]] was added in Season 2 as the "KV Broadside", an addition to the "Kastovia" platform. It feeds from 8-round magazines, with the option for 12-rounders or 25-round drums, though curiously it cannot use its smaller 5-round mags, despite them already being in the game (used by the Mossberg 590M). Along with being fitted with a left side charging handle modification, the shotgun's bolt will lock open when empty when using either stick magazine, but does not lock back when using the drum. The Vepr is the first weapon outside of the Assault Rifle and Battle Rifle classes able to mount underbarrel weapons, both the GP-25 and (rather amusingly) the underbarrel shotgun. It can be loaded with Dragon's Breath incendiary shells, though as with the Benelli M4 above, low-powered rounds would make the weapon's usage unfeasible because of the weapon's self-loading nature. It is not an issue when used in-game, though. A custom Vepr-12 firing incendiary shells is the weapon of choice of the Pyro DMZ boss, along with a riot shield.

As a post-release weapon, it can either be permanently unlocked by completing its challenge, purchasing by a store bundle that has the weapon, or by extracting the weapon in DMZ mode.

==Mossberg 590==
The [[Mossberg 590]] appears as the "Bryson 800". Unlike the previous ''Modern Warfare''’s pump-action shotguns, this weapon is chamber-loaded upon running empty, a rare instance in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files (which did eventually come to the game in Season 2), and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (5, 8, and 12).

A Los Vaqueros operative uses the 590M to breach a door in the "Cartel Protection" mission.

==AK-103==
The [[AK-103]] appears as the "Kastov 762". The "Kastov" label implies that the rifle was developed in the fictional country of Kastovia from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]''. Magazine options include the standard 30-round polymer mag, and 20 or 40 round steel magazines.

The weapon can be modified with an [[AKM]]'s gas block and wooden handguard via the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel attachment, as well as AKM's stock via the "Ivanov Wood Stock", while retaining the AK-103's front sight block, smooth dust cover, and folding stock hardware on the left side of the receiver. It can also be fitted with an [[AKMS]]'s underfolding stock via the "Prolite TL3 Stock". Some of these combinations can be found in the campaign. The "Cursed" blueprint from Season 3 "features" a removed dust cover, which showcases the AK's bolt.

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty.

The default magazines are tan 30-rounders (6L23) and alternative options include 20-round black polymer mags, a 45-round classic red 6L18 magazine and a 60-round quad-stack black magazine (6L31).

===AKS-74N===
The rifle can be turned into a pseudo [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. This is achieved by pairing the "Kastov-Rama" stock with either the "Kastovia 406" barrel (which has a synthetic handguard) or the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel (which has a wooden handguard, along with an earlier AKM's 62 degree gas block and slant brake). The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, previously including the impossible reloading technique without the stock. As of the Season 2 update, the gun instead has a unique empty reload animation when lacking a stock, in which the player character holds the gun sideways, knocks out the old mag with the new one (held "upside down" in their hand), then rocks it in and performs and underhand pull of the bolt, similar to the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)]]'' 's [[AN-94]].

The loadout and progression menu images show it with a polymer 7.62x39mm magazine, though an [[AKMSU]] conversion or separate weapon does not appear in the released game. At the moment the gun uses black polymer 30 round magazines (6L23) by default, 20 rounders serve as fast mags, and the same 45 round magazine available from the AK-105 (6L18) serves as the only extended option.

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks. It is a common weapon from Al-Qatala NPC forces in Al Mazrah in DMZ.

==Brügger & Thomet APC556==
The [[Brügger & Thomet APC556]] was added in Season 2, as the "ISO Hemlock". The rifle is part of the "ISO" platform, connecting the APC556 to its smaller sibling, the [[Brügger & Thomet APC9|APC9]]/"ISO" from ''MW19''. It also shares similar Magpul MBUS styled iron sights.

The game files refer to the weapon as "ar_acharlie300", alluding to the APC300 variant. In addition, the ejection port is marked "Cal. 7.62x35mm" (i.e. .300 AAC Blackout), and the handguard is an elongated version of the one seen on the APC300 and early versions of the APC556 PDW (interestingly, the rifle in-game is a normal APC556/300 upper receiver on a Pro lower receiver, shown by its ability to change pistol grips). Conversely, the gas system is of APC556-esque length. The weapon is chambered in the APC556's 5.56x45mm cartridge by default, and can be modified to use the APC300's .300 Blackout ammunition.

Being a post-release weapon, the APC556 is unlocked either through store bundles, DMZ or challenge unlock.

==Colt Model 901==
The [[M16A4|Colt Model 901]] (which was marketed as an M16A3) appears in the game as the "M16". It fires in three-round bursts, meaning it is intended to pass for an M16A4, but the fire selector has the Safe/Semi/Auto markings of the A3 rather than the A4's Safe/Semi/Burst. It is fitted with a KAC M5 railed handguard and feeds from the same stylized windowed PMAGs used with the "M4". Along with the two extended magazine options available for the "M4", the M16 can also use short 20-round GI magazines that hold 15 rounds for some reason (maybe because 20 isn't a multiple of 3 or to align it with the same magazine option seen on the HK93, which also is a 20 rounder limited to a capacity of 15).

A properly functioning R0901-style rifle can also be achieved by modifying the "M4" mentioned below, although keeping the non-milspec upper and lower receiver.

Numerous factions in the campaign use the Model 901 M16 rifle, including Al-Qatala, the Las Almas Cartel, and the Mexican Army.

Note the "M16A2" markings on the magwell, which (intentionally or not) would be correct for an M16A3, as the receiver of the real weapon is indeed marked as such.]]

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).

===M4A1 Carbine===

==FAMAS Valorisé==
The [[FAMAS Valorisé]] was added in Season 5 under the name "FR Avancer", though the markings on its model read "Modèle 223". As with every other FAMAS in ''Call of Duty'' thus far the rifle features 25-round magazines; for the second time in the series they actually hold the correct 25 rounds, rather than 30. 45- and 60-round quad-stack magazines are available alternate options, with the former being the "chopped" MAG5-60 quad-stack model seen on Instagram and in the previous Modern Warfare game. Also as in ''MW19'', the rifle's integrated bipod can be deployed as an attachment (though currently this also unnecessarily equips a rail under the handguard, as was the case for the RPK's bipod before that was fixed), while equipping the "SA Ion" pistol grip and "FR Sprinter" stock pad brings the rifle closer in appearance to its real world counterpart.

A pseudo FAMAS FÉLIN build can be achieved by adding the "3x RFL-Optic" and "OP-X9 Foregrip" to the aforementioned pistol grip and stock.

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50-round drum, are available as extended options. Interestingly, the rifle features its internal file name in its receiver markings, placed as if "SCHotel" is its in-universe model name; following the standards of internal file names, "S C Hotel" naturally stands for "'''SC'''AR-'''H'''". This time, it is correctly classified as a battle rifle instead of an assault rifle.

[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the gunsmith preview screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19''’s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a rail extension and a fixed stock resembling an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S stock or a KRG SCAR Long Range Stock. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story. 10-, 15- and 20-round magazines are available, all of which being 5-rounds-underloaded compared to real life.

It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor. At the time of the game's release, the real SCAR 17S could be converted to use this cartridge (while the SCAR 20S had received that caliber as a factory option). Interestingly, a year later (September 2023), FN America announced the availability of a limited-edition SCAR 17S DMR that is actually chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor and has a fixed SSR stock.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver. It feeds from black STANAG style 30-round magazines, but 40-round PMAGs and 60-round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

It comes with a (swappable) stylized A2 grip by default and the magazine release on the right side seems to be an aftermarket extended one.

Marines in "Kill or Capture" have SCAR-Ls. It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

===FN SCAR-L CQC===
Equipping the SCAR-L with the "12' Tacshort Barrel" will give it a CQC-length barrel.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A2==
A [[Heckler & Koch HK91A2]] with a safe/semi/auto select fire trigger group appears as the "Lachmann-762". Like the other guns in the "Lachmann Meer" platform, it lacks a paddle magazine release, distinguishing it from the military [[G3]]. It appears to be fitted with a stylized slimline handguard.

It is a standard rifle of the Mexican Army in-game.

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===

==Heckler & Koch HK93A2==
A shortened [[Heckler & Koch HK93A2]] with a Magpul-inspired trigger group with safe/semi/auto positions appears as the "Lachmann-556". Once again, the lack of a paddle magazine release distinguishes it from the military [[HK33]].

It is intended to be an [[HK53]], as evidenced by the game files referring to it as "ar_kilo53", though the barrel and the cocking tube are slightly longer than this version, with the length being between the HK53 and the HK33KA3. It can be made HK33-length with the "Lachmann Nova" or "LM Aurora 90 Barrel" attachments (these two having same cocking tube length as each other, and almost the same barrel length), or HK33K-esque length (shorter than proper, but longer than the game's default) with the "Lach-12 Barrel".

It feeds from translucent 30-round magazines by default, but it can also use 20-round magazines (that hold 15 rounds), 40-round extended magazines or a 60-round drum inspired by the X-Products drum available for the G3 family of rifles.

[[File:Hk93 mw22 (8).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with all the roller-delayed guns in the game, the tactical reload starts by locking the bolt back, then the magazines are swapped and the charging handle is given a gentle tug to let it go forward. Worth noting is that all the magazines that are either translucent or have windows on their side only render the top bullet during reloads, as you can see with the one on the left. The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done; this was fixed sometime after the Season 1 update. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

==HS Produkt VHS-K2==
A heavily stylized [[HS Produkt VHS-K2]] with a Springfield Armory Hellion-style trigger guard and pistol grip was added in Season 4 as the "Tempus Razorback." The top rail assembly resembles that of the [[FB MSBS Grot|FB MSBS Grot B]] (alongside the "TA ERGO" stock option), and the charging handle is also similar to the Grot B's, though moved forward over the fire control area. The rifle can equip the VHS-2's integral optic carry handle, tied to the "17" IO-XL" barrel attachment; this barrel is longer than standard, roughly between the VHS-K2 and VHS-D2. The "13" Frenzy IX" barrel features a shorter optics rail as well as a unique red dot sight which replaces the ironsights; this sight can itself be replaced by other optics. The default empty reload animation has an interesting dynamic feature - normally, the charging handle is used, but interrupting it by swapping or sprinting will result in the operator using the bolt release after the interruption.

==LoneStar Future Weapons RM277==
A [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based bullpup rifle was added to the battle rifles class in Season 3 under the name "Cronen Squall". It is depicted as a heavily stylized version of the first prototype, noticeable by having a rear magazine release. However, it also has two buttons near the trigger group that act as bolt release buttons instead of magazine release buttons, a black cheek rest, switchable ejection ports and an enlarged rear similar to that of the [[Desert Tech Micro Dynamic Rifle]]. It is chambered in "6.8 Wrath", an in-universe version of 6.8x51mm SIG FURY, which is the cartridge of the [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] (now designated as the XM7) that prevailed over the RM277 in the NGSW trials.

The gun uses conventional full brass case ammo like the civilian/training ammo by default but a 6.8 Composite ammo option is also available, bringing it back to the original 6.8mm TVCM cartridge that the RM277 was chambered in. Beside that, Frangible and Hollowpoint ammo options give the 6.8mm SIG FURY cartridge its well-known hybrid case (these options are correct as currently, available hybrid-case ammo to the civilian market is those two options). It is fed by default using 20-round L7 AWM magazines with a 30-rounder and a 50-round Magpul D-50 drum magazine also available; the rifle can also equip its proprietary micro flow-through Brevis III suppressor.

While the real rifle fires from a closed bolt in semi-auto and an open bolt in full-auto, its in-game incarnation is depicted as always firing from an open bolt (with the same firing delay given to all other open bolt weapons), though inconsistent with this, the empty reload animation features the player character using the bolt release as if the rifle were firing from a closed bolt. The out-of-ammo inspect animation is also consistent with the gun always being open bolt, beginning with the trigger being pulled to dry-fire the rifle. In order for the rifle to at least be internally consistent to its fictional always-open-bolt self, the empty reload animation should instead not use the bolt release, and simply swap mags like a non-empty reload.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12.5" barrel appears as the "M4", based on the [[Geissele Super Duty|Geissele M4A1 URG-I]] (also informally known as the M4A1 "Block III") used by USASOC and even some Navy SEAL operators. The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard depicted with an 11.5" length, a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40-round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

The “14" Carbine Shroud Barrel” attachment gives it an AR carbine plastic handguard/14.5" stepped barrel/AR front sight with an added rail underneath and a small section of picatinny rail mounted on the right side of the gas block, essentially turning it into a pseudo-[[M4A1]]. The “Tempus High Tower 20" Barrel” attachment gives it a KAC M5 RAS/20" barrel/AR front sight, making it into a pseudo-[[M16A3]] when combined with the "Demo Precision Elite Factory" stock. Pairing this barrel with an M203 automatically swaps the rail system for the classic M203 heatshield, previously its own separate attachment in ''MW19''; this also happens on the game's M16, which features this barrel attachment by default.

Other barrel options include the “7.5" Tempus Firebrand”, the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16-inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the “11.5" T-H4 Barrel”, which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18/RIS II rail and a 10.3-inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament, which is the in-universe version of Knight's Armament Company based on the knight armored glove and mace logo.

==="Flatline"===
The same futuristic VLTOR/Magpul themed M4A1 Carbine from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare|Infinite Warfare]]'' appears as the "Flatline" blueprint available for the in-game M4, named after the Epic rarity variant of the same name for the fictional "NV4" assault rifle (although not modeled after the actual variant that appears in that game). While both of the upper and lower receivers are retained, the handguard and sights are not and the muzzle, magazine, and stock are modeled after the ''MWII''’s variant instead, albeit rethemed to better match the NV4 itself.

[[File:MW22 M4 Flatline 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle in-game, though .458 SOCOM is more of an oversized intermediate cartridge.

The rifle appears to be built on an otherwise generic milspec M16 lower, a la the default "M4" in-game, but with aesthetic similarities to the "XRK M4" from ''Modern Warfare'' (based on a Radian Weapons receiver) on the left side around the magazine well. The left side of the upper receiver bears a vague resemblance to a Mega Arms GTR-3H with grooves similar to the JP Enterprises CTR-02, but with said grooves cut in the opposite direction; the right side appears to be based on a Wilson Combat Stripped Billet AR-15 upper or a CMMG MkW-15 upper.

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10-round magazines.

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classified as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an 18" Mk 14 EBR barrel by default, and can be modified with a standard M14's barrel via the “22" Factory Fourteen Barrel” option, as well as a “16" Chrome-Lined RFX40 Barrel” similar to the SOCOM 16. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options. All box magazine options for both M14s are loaded with 5 rounds less than their real capacities a la the faux SCAR Mk 20 in the game.

==M14 (in Sage EBR chassis)==
The marksman rifle-classed "EBR-14" returns from the previous game, this time setup akin an M14 in a Sage EBR chassis. It can be identified as such by the 22" barrel and the select-fire lever, though the latter is unused; the weapon is only used in semi-automatic mode in-game. It uses 10-round mags by default, with 15 and 20-round extended magazines available.

===Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR===
Equipping the “18" Lonestar” or “18" T300” barrel makes the weapon resemble a [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]].

==Malyuk==
The [[Malyuk]] was added in Season 6 as the "TR-76 Geist".

==Marlin Model 336==
The [[Marlin Model 336]] appears as the "Lockwood Mk2", under the marksman rifles class. It is depicted as being chambered in the .45-70 Government cartridge, like the [[Marlin Model 1895]] that previously appeared in ''Modern Warfare'' as the "MK2 Carbine", but this time the shape of the ejection port indicates that it is a Model 336. It features the same basic ammo options as the other marksman rifles; notably, this includes armor-piercing ammo - while .45-70 AP rounds do exist (e.g. Lehigh Defense's X-Treme Penetrator rounds), the ones in-game are visually the same as the other calibers (likely for consistency's sake), with a black-finished case, a silver jacket, and a black spitzer-type point. Realistically, loading spitzer-pointed rounds in a tube magazine could lead to a chain-detonation (i.e. one round's point impacting the next round's primer), blowing the entire magazine tube apart.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] returns from the previous game as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel of 10 inches (which is not a standard length on the real VIRTUS). While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs, in fact being Rodolfo's signature weapon throughout the campaign (with a distinct two tone finish resembling the classic ''MW2'' ACR). It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1. Which can be unlocked by either completing its unlock challenge or via DMZ, where it can either be obtained by the Chemist boss agent (who uses the "Health Hazard" blueprint, which can also be unlocked with the gun), enemy agents in Building 21 or through players, enemy or friendly. If the player successfully extracts with the MCX, it will be unlocked in all game modes, as well as the aforementioned blueprint if obtained. Purchasing a bundle that has the MCX in it will also unlock the weapon.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards. For magazines, a translucent 30-round magazine is available by default with a PMAG-40 holding 45 rounds and the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine as alternative options. On an interesting note: when using the MAG5-60 quad-stack magazine, the character can be seen putting the spent magazine into the plate carrier's pouches instead of the battle belt when performing a tactical reload.

In the intro cutscene for the campaign mission "Ghost Team", there is a picture of three Shadow Company operatives, with one of them holding an MCX VIRTUS with a more correctly modeled handguard.

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS (.300 Blackout)==
A shorter-barreled (approximately 6.75 inches), .300 AAC Blackout version of the aforementioned MCX VIRTUS was added during Season 5 as the "M13C". While it is intended to pass for a [[SIG-Sauer MCX Rattler]], judging by the "ar_ralpha" internal file name and the chambering, it is actually an MCX VIRTUS with a stylized handguard, as evidenced by the forward assist and the barrel length.

==SIG-Sauer MCX / Honey Badger hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). However, the model in the game lacks a gas tube when previewing the weapon in the Gunsmith menu, either being a mistake or showing that the weapon is using direct blowback to operate (which is concerningly doable considering other higher-pressured cartridges being able to do it with a much heavier bolt carrier group). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is Simon "Ghost" Riley's main weapon throughout the campaign, where it is briefly available when the player takes control of him during the opening mission (with the unsuppressed “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

As with the KRISS Vector above, firing the weapon will not produce tracers and killing enemies with the Honey Badger hides skull indicators, thanks to its use of .300 AAC Blackout ammunition.

As with the MCX above, there are several ways to unlock the Honey Badger, either through purchasing a bundle that has it (along with the blueprint), completing its unlock challenge or through DMZ, where the player can scavenge a Honey Badger there. The Building 21 map is also a useful location in finding the carbine, as enemy agents use it on occasion or through the loot pools.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Accuracy International AW50==
The [[Accuracy International AW50]] appears as the "Victus XMR"; it is available in Season 1 under the Imperatorium platform. It is worth noting (as with the AR-57) that the AW50 was planned for the original ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'' game, but only its code and firing sound (which sounds similar to the M82A1 in that game) are left as the weapon was scrapped, and it wasn't added to the ''Call of Duty'' series proper until ''MWII''.

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", .300 Winchester Magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively, and all other MRADs found in the story have the same naming issue.

==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
The [[Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] was added in Season 3, under the name "FJX Imperium". It is chambered in ".408 PACE", the analogue to the real life .408 CheyTac round. For laser attachments, the M200 uses the small "tube"-style laser set rather than the PEQ Box-style set, and despite the forward top rail being present they attach to the right side, thus it's unfortunately not possible to replicate the PEQ-2 attached to the original MW2's Intervention.

==Gepard GM6 Lynx==
The [[Gepard GM6 Lynx]] appears as the "Signal 50". It can be given its correct stock pad with the "FSS Echo Stock" attachment. A GM6 can be found atop the prison wall at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==Knight's Armament SR-25 E2 PR==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25|Knight's Armament SR-25 PR]] is the mid-season weapon in Season 2 Reloaded. It was added as a marksman rifle part of the M4 platform, under the name "Tempus Torrent". The rifle's SOPMOD-style stock can be equipped on every other member of the M4 platform, while its forend customization is split between a combination of the Barrel and Guard categories. The Guard category consists of four (including default) rail system options, one of which being a monolithic upper receiver; the "Torrent Tac Guard" resembles the URX 3 rail. The Barrel category includes standard, shorter, and longer options, as well as the “14" Chroma LRS” which is the URX / "Tac Guard" rail system (this time without rail covers) paired with an M110- / Mk 11-style suppressor, and a short barrel paired with a fifth type of rail system. The "Torrent MOC-IV" forend is based on a VLTOR CAS-V handguard that rather unfortunately leaves the gas tube exposed.

Using the "Torrent Tac Guard" and “16" Tour RP” allows for a SR-25 ECC style build.

==M24 SWS==
The [[M24 SWS]] returns from ''Modern Warfare'' as the "SP-R 208" marksman rifle, this time chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO.

==Remington Model 700 (in custom chassis)==
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is a [[Remington Model 700]] variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. The resulting model has a short barrel reminiscent of the Remington 700 PCR SBR, a stylized-to-fit MDT chassis similar to the Israeli-modernized M24, and a stock of the Remington 700 PCR Enhanced. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .308 Winchester, befitting its status as a civilian rifle.

==Remington Mk 13 Mod 0==
A stylized [[Remington Mk 13 Mod 0]] appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the Remington Mk 13 Mod 0. It can be identified by the McMillan A2 stock, the .300 Winchester Magnum chambering and the fact that it appears as a variant to the aforementioned [[M24 SWS]] due to both using the action of the [[Remington Model 700]].

==Walther WA 2000==
The [[Walther WA 2000]] was added in Season 5 as the "Carrack .300". The model depicted is a hybrid of the first and second generation models, featuring the muzzle device of the former and stock design of the latter (with an added rear monopod). The "Carrack Palm" attachment adds the rifle's otherwise-missing palm rest. Like the game's M200 Intervention, the WA 2000 can deploy its integrated bipod through use of a barrel attachment. The “30" Flintline” barrel gives the rifle the second generation WA 2000 barrel length and flash hider, and likewise features a version with the bipod deployed. The rifle's scope comes in two variations, default having a flipped open lens cover (as in ''MW2''), while an unlockable version replaces this with a rubber eye piece (which provides a full-screen style view). As with all of the other default optics in the game, these can be equipped on other sniper rifles as well.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon, fitted with a laser sight for aiming. In certain events (the Shadow Siege limited-time event to name one), the weapon carries 200 rounds, which can be reloaded with unlimited spare ammo.

An unusable Minigun with a slotted flash hider can be found inside a building in the campaign mission "Kill or Capture".

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG. The "Icarus" name is likely derived from the manufacturer's original name "Ares;" as both are figures from Greek mythology.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment. It is also correctly depicted as a closed-bolt weapon, having no trigger delay compared to the open-bolt machine guns in the game.

In the campaign, it's correctly used by the Mexican Army.

==IWI Negev NG7==
The [[IWI Negev NG7]] appears in-game as the "SAKIN MG38." It is relatively uncommon in the story, though one is present in the bed of Price's truck during "Violence and Timing."

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] is available in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants. Originally, when equipping the RPK's unique bipod attachment (which simply deploys the bipod) the gun would also gain an unnecessary picatinny rail under the handguard (presumably due to being in the underbarrel slot, like foregrips), however this was fixed with the Season 3 Reloaded update.

==SIG-Sauer MG 338==
The [[SIG-Sauer MG 338]]'s 2020 prototype returns from ''Modern Warfare'', still named the "RAAL MG" (which stands for Reconnaissance Auxiliary Assault Lightweight Machine Gun). It uses essentially the same model from the previous game complete with the SIG-Sauer LMG-6.8 style stock and the A2 grip.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56", and is incorrectly depicted with an AUG A3's bolt release. It feeds by default from the same 60-round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however these seem to be non-STANAG/AUG-adapted as the magazines all don't have the cutout for the magazine catch to interface with. It can also equip a fictional non-STANAG polymer MAG5-100 as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.

=Launchers=
Having the underbarrel grenade launcher attached will replace the alternate firing mode (either semi-auto on most weapons or full-auto on some battle rifles) with the grenade launcher mode if available. Picking up a weapon with a UBGL attached or switching to it in the campaign designates the grenade launcher as the "M203", regardless of what model of grenade launcher actually is. The same applies to multiplayer, though it is referred to as "KL40-M2" (GP-25).

==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "STRELA-P".

==Hybrid Flare Pistol==
A fictional hybrid flare pistol seemingly mostly based on the [[Orion Flare Gun]] (with the grips of the 12-gauge version, but sized more similarly to the 25mm variant, and with parts of both variants' color schemes), with elements of the [[Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V]] (namely the trigger guard and the rounding on the front of the frame), and an overhanging breech similar to the [[Webley & Scott No. 3 Mk. I]] is available in Warzone, where it is used to signal for the re-deployment of teammates.

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option for the "M4", M16, both MCX variants, "FTac Recon", RM277, and SR-25, under the name "SPW 40mm".

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake", and is available for the AUG A3, HK91, HK93, APC556, VHS-K2, and FAMAS Valorisé.

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign as the "REV G-80" (while in Spec Ops, Warzone Battle Royale, DMZ and multiplayer it's named "RGL-80"), firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980. It appears as a rare weapon during the Gun Game gamemode in multiplayer, although not available in other modes.

The AV-140 MSGL is given to Garrick in "Violence and Timing," and some MSGLs can be found in the watchtower at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the dubious ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
As with ''Modern Warfare'', the "Flash Grenade" in the game is a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]. Many of the playable operators are depicted with this grenade, either in a pouch or hanging from their webbing with elastic bands attached. Picking up the flashbang in the campaign incorrectly dubs it as the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]". Toggling the "Inverted Flash" option on in the game's settings will make the screen go black when flashed, as opposed to white in its original function.

==Mk.V CN Gas Grenade==

==M83 Smoke Grenade==
An [[M83 Smoke Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "Smoke Grenade". As with the M18 Smoke Grenade before, it is used to mark locations for some killstreaks/scorestreaks.
[[File:M87.JPG|thumb|none|150px|M83 TA smoke grenade]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
A fictionalized [[M67 Hand Grenade]] with a different fuse design resembling [[RGO/RGN fragmentation grenade|RGO/RGN]] is featured in the game as the "Frag Grenade". Picking up the frag grenade in the campaign refers to it as "M67 Frag".

==M18A1 Claymore==
A fictionalized [[M18A1 Claymore]] using tripod legs instead of fold-open scissor-legs is featured in the game as the "Claymore", once again using laser tripwire detonators.

==Hybrid Bouncing Mine==
The "Proximity Mine" returns in ''MWII'' with an a similar albeit altered look from the first game. It resembles less of its real-life counterparts as with ''MW19''. It is accurately described as a "proximity-triggered explosive", as opposed to a "pressure-triggered" explosive in the previous installment.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AGM-114 Hellfire==
Just like Modern Warfare 2019, the AGM-114 Hellfire missile appears on the AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopter and a slightly fictionalized Hellfire is also a part of the "Cruise Missile" killstreak, parented to a Storm Shadow/AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon hybrid shell. These also appear to be mounted on the wing tips of the "Gunship" killstreak, which might explain the steerable 105mm rounds.

==Bushmaster M242 Chaingun==
What appears to be fictionalized [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]]s are mounted and used on the M2A4 Bradley IFV (formerly called Light Tank) armored vehicles. The model is carried over from Modern Warfare 2019 and description of the prior vehicle states that the cannon is chambered in 30mm. The "APC" (which appears to be a Boxer APC with the Stryker 30mm turret) also appears to mount the M242 Chaingun, chambered in 30mm.

==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun appears as the Sentry Gun killstreak in multiplayer; one of the few instances of the Sentry Gun not being some kind of a minigun in the series. A stockless M240 is used in the RWS turret atop the Merkava Mk.4 - CV90 "frankentank".

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed fictional twin barrel [[M197 Vulcan]] turret, to fulfill the series' proud lineage of VTOL jets with swiveling gun turrets that hover around a vicinity and engage infantry targets.

A-10 Thunderbolt IIs return as the "Precision Airstrike" killstreak, performed with their [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] rotary cannons.
[[File:GAU-8 Avenger contrast.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger - 30x173mm]]

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D/E Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s, with some apparently having two at the same time. The double-M230 Apaches appear in the campaign missions "Kill or Capture" and "Ghost Team."

==M102 105mm Howitzer==
The returning psudo-AC-130 "Gunship" also mounts the [[M102 Howitzer|M102 105mm howitzer]]. This gun appears prominently in the pre-rendered cutscenes of the interior of the gunship in the "Close Air" and "Hardpoint" missions, but its functionality is replaced by AGM-114 Hellfire style missiles in gameplay.

==Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher==
A modified version of the [[Mk 47 Mod 0 Grenade Launcher]] returns from ''MW2019'', this time mounted to the "MRAP" eight wheeled gun trucks added in Season 5. The weapon is controlled via a RWS turret during gameplay.
[[File:Mk47-1.jpg|thumb|350px|none|Mk 47 Mod 0 grenade launcher - 40x53mm]]

==Minigun==
Some kind of minigun is mounted on the "Wheelson" UGV killstreak unlike the auto grenade launchers used on the Wheelsons in ''Modern Warfare''.

==Mk44 Bushmaster GAU-23/A==
The "Gunship"'s AC-130J-based loadout includes the Mk44 Bushmaster 30mm GAU-23/A gun. It functions akin the Bofors 40mm seen previously.

[[File:Mwiibofors40mm1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the GAU-23/A.]]

==Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B==
Mil Mi-24V "Hind" helicopters appear in ''MWII'' and feature the nose mounted [[Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B]] rotary cannons. Compared to the earlier games, the Mi-24 also correctly only has this chin gun, whereas unused 23/30mm twin GSh cannons were present in the original trilogy.
[[File:YakB-127mm.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Yakushev-Borzov Yak-B - 12.7x108mm]]
[[File:Mwiioverwatchheli1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|In multiplayer (as seen here), the Mi-24 is a killstreak called the "Overwatch Helo" and functions similarly to the Harrier.

==Hybrid Reverse Draw Crossbow==
A slightly modified version of the reverse draw crossbow reappears from the previous game. It appears as a bonus weapon unlocked in safes in the missions "El Sin Nombre" and "Alone", and it is available in multiplayer as part of Season 2. It is unlocked by completing the unlock challenge or by buying a bundle in the store that has the blueprint available.

=Unusable Weapons=

==Beretta M9A3==
The [[Beretta M9A3]] appears on Gus' skin "El Santo" in the shoulder holster. It uses the "Renetti" model from ''Modern Warfare'' with the "Veins of Gold" blueprint grips. It appears to be missing the hammer, however.

==Glock 18C / Arsenal Firearms Strike One hybrid==
A hybrid pistol appears on Ghost's "Gilded Reaper" skin. It is actually one of the blueprints of the "X16" ([[Glock 21]]) from ''Modern Warfare'', which has an [[Arsenal Firearms Strike One]]-style frame combined with the "Singuard Arms Featherweight" barrel, the latter consisting of a [[Glock 18C]]'s slide with custom cutouts on the side.

==Kimber Custom TLE/RL II==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in the "Ghosting Everyone" loading screen and the "Shaded Ghost" calling card.

Additionally, a Kimber is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic Colt M1911-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

==STI Tactical==
Two unusable STI 2011 pistols resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire" outside the fish hatchery. It uses the model of the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911 Series#SIG-Sauer 1911 Traditional TACOPS|SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

'''''Call of Duty: World at War''''' is the sixth main ''Call of Duty'' game and the second by Treyarch, starting their ''Black Ops'' story arc. Released in 2008, it is the last ''Call of Duty'' game set primarily in the Second World War until ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]'' nine years later. The game features two campaigns, one in the Pacific theatre and the other in the Soviet Union; a British campaign was also planned, but cut due to lack of time (this also caused the much-hated level "Blowtorch and Corkscrew" to be farmed out to Pi Studios, who were responsible for the multiplayer maps of ''[[Wolfenstein]]'').

{{VG Title}}

__TOC__ 

=Overview=
''World at War'' shares many of the weapon/loadout mechanics of ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'', including the "Create-a-Class" system. Per the WWII setting, the "sniper rifles" and "assault rifles" categories are renamed to "bolt action rifles" and simply "rifles" respectively, the latter category referring to rifles that aren't manually operated. WWII-era attachment options for weapons also are available in this game, with select weapons having a few new options such as extended magazines, flash suppressors, bayonets, and bipods. The "camouflage" customization option from ''CoD4'' is not found in ''World at War'''s multiplayer, only referenced as a cut feature in game files. Interestingly, most weapons found in the "Blowtorch and Corkscrew" mission have a wet, rained-on finish, a trait unique to this specific mission.

''World at War'' is the first game to introduce Nazi Zombies (later known simply as Zombies in later games), a horde survival gamemode where players are pit into surviving waves of endless undead. Additional weapons (as well as ammunition for the same weapon) can be purchased off the walls as a white chalk silhouette and a random weapon can be purchased through the "Mystery Box", which contains weapons that are otherwise not available off the walls and it contains a few fictional and unique powerful "wonder weapons". Rather than attachments, players can upgrade their weapons through the "Pack-A-Punch" machine only available in "Der Riese", giving them massive stat buffs as well as special abilities for some weapons. Weapons that are upgraded through Pack-A-Punch will have intricate engravings on the metal, one of the few instances where a "camouflage" of sorts is used in the game (along with the muddied finish, mentioned above).

Melee attacks are performed with knives as opposed to bludgeoning with the current weapon as with ''CoD4'', though using the bayonet attachment for most weapons allows the player to perform quick lunges and stabs. Finding the Bowie Knife in Nazi Zombies allows increased melee damage, this replaces the standard knife entirely.

=Handguns=

==Colt M1911 Hybrid==
A confusing and anachronistic [[M1911]] variant is the sidearm of the US Marines in the game and is given to playable character Pvt. Miller in the missions "Little Resistance" and "Hard Landing". It holds eight rounds when a real M1911 from the period would only hold seven (plus one in the chamber); while standard-size eight-round magazines are available, they were not produced until the 1980s. The ammunition capacity in the game is likely a game balancing decision to make the pistol equal to the other sidearms in the game, which all hold 8 rounds. The M1911 also has a straight mainspring housing and a short trigger, indicating an anachronistic Series 80 frame. As such, the pistol has an A1 slide and trigger, a Series 80 frame and an eight-round magazine from the 1980s - a combination unlikely to be found in the hand of a WWII GI. The M1911 variant is the starting weapon in Nazi Zombies in all maps.

A secret M1911 variant called the "Holy Pistol" can be used in the Nazi Zombies map "Nacht Der Untoten" on the PC, by using the "Give All" PC command. It is a visually-identical M1911 that fires high-explosive grenades, and as such is similar to the upgraded M1911s obtained by putting the standard pistol into the "Pack-a-Punch" machines found in the Zombies maps of later games (although these also had an altered appearance).

[[file:CODWAW M1911 (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|About to release the slide.]]

==Nambu Type 14 (Transition model)==
The [[Nambu Type 14]] is the sidearm used by Imperial Japanese forces in the game. It is the very first firearm obtained in the game, given to the player by Sgt. Sullivan at the beginning of the mission "Semper Fi". The pistol also makes an appearance at the end of the mission after Miller is wounded by a Japanese soldier with a katana, regardless of whether or not the player replaced it during the course of the level. Like most sidearms, the weapon is fairly uncommon and the best way to obtain one is by taking it from a wounded enemy who has entered "Last Stand" mode.

==Smith & Wesson Model 27==
The most powerful handgun in the game is the [[Smith & Wesson Model 27 / 28|Smith & Wesson Model 27]] with the front sight and grip of the older [[Smith & Wesson Model 27 / 28|Smith & Wesson .357 Registered Magnum]], the predecessor of the Model 27. It is only available in multiplayer and can be given by the random weapons box in Nazi Zombies. It should be noted that the Model 27/Registered Magnum never actually saw active service; only US Army General George S. Patton was known to carry a S&W .357 Magnum during WW2. A more realistic choice of service revolver would have been a [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] or an [[M1917 Revolver|M1917]].

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is the sidearm of the Red Army and is given to playable character Pvt. Petrenko in the missions "Their Land, Their Blood", "Ring of Steel", "Eviction" and "Downfall". The weapon is fairly effective in the close quarter fighting of the Soviet campaign but due to a lack of ammunition, its use is limited. NPCs may also be seen using the weapon on rare occasions.

==Walther P38==
The [[Walther P38]] is the standard sidearm of German forces in the game. One can be picked up in the mission "Vendetta" and can be used to unlock the achievement/trophy "Gun Slinger". The weapon is also used against the player at the end of the mission "Downfall" as he is attempting to plant the Soviet flag on the roof of the Reichstag. Like the Nambu Type 14, the weapon is fairly uncommon and the best way to obtain is from enemies who have entered "Last Stand" mode.

=Submachine Guns=

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is the primary submachine gun used by the Germans and is seen in every mission of the Soviet campaign. The "dual magazines" attachment is available in multiplayer, effectively giving it the MP40/I Dual Magazine System, though it incorrectly fires both magazines continuously and is treated like an extended magazine. A sound suppressor and "Aperture Sight" can also be added in MP.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is the primary weapon of Sgt. Reznov and first seen in the mission "Vendetta", after he gives Petrenko a scoped Mosin-Nagant. It is also the standard Soviet submachine gun and can be found in abundance towards the end of the Soviet campaign. The version used in singleplayer and Nazi Zombies is loaded with the weapon's trademark 71-round drum magazine while the one available in multiplayer instead uses the smaller 35-round stick magazine by default; the drum magazine has to be unlocked as an attachment. As the "Round Drum" attachment simply doubles the size of the base magazine, the drum holds 70 rounds instead of 71, which is the capacity of the singleplayer and zombies drum.

==Thompson M1A1==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1A1 Thompson|Thompson M1A1]] fitted with a Cutts compensator is the primary submachine gun used by American forces and is Sgt. Roebuck's main weapon. In-game, the weapon is visibly modeled with a 30-round magazine, but it only holds 20 rounds, while the "Round Drum" attachment doubles this to 40. Thompson drums did not hold 40 (unless you underloaded it), the 40 round capacity is due to the game simply doubling the base capacity when the extended magazine attachment is used. Additionally the M1A1 physically cannot be loaded with a drum magazine - this is a feature of the older M1928 Thompson. The Create-a-Class icon shows the Thompson without the Cutts compensator. It is slightly anachronistic to the mission "Semper Fi" taking place in August 1942; during that time, the earlier Thompson M1 was in use, while the M1A1 was adopted two months later. It is also anachronistic for the pre-October 1942 multiplayer maps.

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun|Type 100]] is the primary Japanese submachine gun. It seems to be the 1944 model, making its appearance in "Semper Fi", set in 1942, anachronistic. They are also far too common, being depicted as a standard infantry weapon, in the hands of around a third of all Japanese soldiers. It is also anachronistic for the pre-1944 multiplayer maps. Notably, it is held improperly by the magazine by the player character, but properly in third person. Confusingly, enemies with the Type 100 sometimes banzai charge the player, despite the fact that the weapon is never fitted with a bayonet. In multiplayer, a suppressor, "Aperture Sight," and extended "Box Magazine" can be unlocked for the Type 100, with the latter doubling capacity from 30 to 60.

=Shotguns=

==Double-barreled shotgun==
A full-size [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|Double-barreled shotgun]] appears in the subway, lying around in the offices. Like the Winchester Model 1897, it is devastating at close range, capable of blowing off heads and limbs. When firing, the weapon incorrectly ejects a spent cartridge (and to top it off, it is a rifle round as opposed to a shotgun shell), which is impossible with real double-barreled shotguns as they have no ejection port and need to have their shells removed manually (although some are capable of automatically ejecting shells once the barrels have been broken open). When the weapon is reloaded, it acts as if none of the shells have been ejected and any empty cartridges (this time being proper shotgun shells) will still be inside the gun and are removed manually. The Create-a-Class description in multiplayer states that the weapon is American, although it is found in Eastern Front missions in the campaign.

===Sawn-off double-barreled shotgun===
The "Sawed-Off" optional attachment for the double-barreled shotgun is self-explanatory. In campaign, this version appears in the asylum in "Ring of Steel," found in the kitchen.

==Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun==
Referred to in-game as the "M1897 Trench Gun", the [[Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun"]] is Sgt. Sullivan's primary weapon and can be found in numerous American levels. Interestingly, it has different magazine sizes in both singleplayer (six rounds) and multiplayer (four rounds), neither of which is actually correct (the real weapon holds five rounds in the tube magazine, plus one in the chamber; considering how the weapon in-game is always pumped at the end of a reload, the 6-round capacity could not possibly be 5+1, as pumping the weapon would eject the chambered shell). A vertical foregrip (which appears to be a simple wooden handle haphazardly drilled into the original forend) and a M1917 bayonet can be unlocked for use with the Trench Gun in multiplayer.

[[file:CODWAW M1897 (5).jpg|thumb|none|600px|When equipped with the vertical grip, the ending pumping animation shows off the bolt rather nicely.]]

=Rifles & Carbines=
As mentioned earlier, rifles in this game are divided into "bolt action rifles" and "rifles". However, the "bolt action rifle" category incorrectly includes the PTRS-41, which is a semi-automatic anti-tank rifle (though one can make the argument since the PTRS in-game has a lower rate of fire compared to the other semi-automatic rifles, likely for balancing purposes).

==Arisaka Type 99==
The [[Arisaka Rifle#Arisaka Type 99|Arisaka Type 99]] is the main rifle for the Japanese. Banzai attackers attach Model 30 bayonets to their Arisakas, which are then called "Arisaka Bayonet." A scoped version can also be found in the missions "Semper Fi", "Burn 'em Out" and "Blowtorch and Corkscrew". The weapon is modelled on the earlier Type 99 rifles as it has the monopod, flip up anti-aircraft rear sight, protected front sight, and a plum shaped bolt handle.

==FG 42/I==
The [[FG 42/I]] appears under the machine guns category, and is the only weapon in this class that can be equipped with a telescopic sight. It incorrectly has a 32-round magazine in singleplayer; this is corrected to 20 rounds in multiplayer. It is also anachronistic for the pre-1943 multiplayer maps.

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is the secondary rifle for the Germans and is seen in the missions "Their Land, Their Blood", "Ring of Steel", "Heart of the Reich" and "Downfall". As expected, there are still bullets in the magazine that the player removes when reloading, even if the last shot was fired. It is also anachronistic for the pre-1943 multiplayer maps.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is the main rifle for the German Army. The weapon appears to be modelled after one of the earlier models and not the "Kriegsmodell" as it has a bolt disassembly disc, spring retained barrel bands, cleaning rod, and a protected front sight. It also has a manufacture date of 1944 as well as "DOT" written on the top of the reciever, indicating it is a Waffenwerke Brunn rifle produced in Czechoslovakia.

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1 Carbine]] is the secondary rifle of American forces and is rarely seen until the mission "Breaking Point", where it can be picked up from most of the American corpses. It is erroneously called an "M1A1 Carbine" in-game, despite not having a folding stock. In MP, unlockable attachments for the carbine include an M3 Carbine-style flash hider, an "Aperture Sight," bayonet, and a 30 round extended box magazine.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] is the standard rifle of the American forces, and is seen in the hands of nearly all of the American Marines. It is depicted as being able to reload partway through an en-bloc clip; while there is facility for unloading the gun without firing every shot, it was not considered practical to do so in combat (since real soldiers don't have a magic invisible ammo hopper that consolidate their spare ammunition neatly into full clips) and American soldiers were generally advised to fire off remaining shots if reloading was necessary. In-game, this is represented by having a mid-clip reload take longer than an empty reload. In addition to a flash hider, bayonet, and rifle grenades, a sniper scope can be unlocked for the Garand in multiplayer, giving it the appearance of the M1C sniper variant.

==Mosin Nagant M38 Carbine==
The [[Mosin Nagant Rifle|Mosin Nagant M38 Carbine]] is first given to Petrenko fitted with a scope by Reznov in the mission "Vendetta". In later missions the rifle is found in the hands of Russian soldiers. They are rather abundant in early missions but get scarcer as the game goes on. Due to a graphical error, the bolt never actually opens to expose the breech until the player prepares to load a clip; otherwise it remains solid metal and casings do not actually eject from the rifle itself. All M38's are fitted with downturned bolt handles meant to work with sniper scopes, even the ones that don't have scopes. While not anachronistic, this model of the Mosin Nagant being used is inaccurate due to the M91/30 variant being the standard issue rifle for Soviet forces during the 1930s and throughout World War II. The M38 carbine variant served as a weapon for rear echelon troops.

The [[PTRS-41 rifle|PTRS-41]] is always seen with a scope, and as with multiple optic-equipped weapons in the ''Call of Duty'' series, the front sight is missing. However, the real rifle was never issued with a scope, apart from field-expedient modifications, which were for spotting purposes only; these scopes were typically PU scopes, not meant for the PTRS, and as such couldn't be properly zeroed (note that in the iOS counterpart ''Call of Duty: Zombies'', the weapon lacks the scope and appropriately uses iron sights, though it has a front sight mounted on the gas block rather than the end of the barrel). The PTRS is first seen in single player during "Vendetta" and much later in "Heart of the Reich" and "Downfall". It is ''ridiculous'' to depict a single man firing this weapon from the shoulder; the PTRS-41 is six feet long and weighs forty-five pounds, and unless he was an absolute giant of a man, the immense recoil produced when firing would knock him on his back. A single soldier would only ever be expected to be able to carry the fully assembled rifle for short distances.

==Springfield M1903A1==
The [[M1903 Springfield|Springfield M1903A1]] is never seen in single player without a scope, and comes with a scope that can be unlocked in multiplayer. The rifle is not an M1903A4 as it is based off of an A1 and mounts a higher-powered scope than the M73 and M84 scopes commonly used on the A4 variant. The scope mounts are also moved forward towards the barrel and forward receiver to accommodate for its length. The A1 sniper variant was more common in the Pacific (as it was the standard sniper rifle of the USMC), which is why it is also seen in other games set in that theatre rather than the A4.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] is the main support weapon used by the Germans and the only assault rifle in the game. It is rare in earlier levels but becomes more widespread towards the end of the Russian campaign. It is also anachronistic for the pre-1943 multiplayer maps.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The secondary Russian rifle is the [[Tokarev SVT-40]]. It is seen only in the final two missions "Heart of the Reich" and "Downfall".

=Machine Guns=
Interestingly, ''World at War'' is the only main entry of the series post-''COD4'' (not including ''Advanced Warfare'') that machine guns are accurately classified as "machine guns" and not "light machine guns" as with later games of the series (including Treyarch's own entries). The "machine guns" category in-game includes the aforementioned FG 42/I, an automatic rifle of sorts. All machine guns (both fixed and portable) are capable of blowing limbs and heads off of enemy soldiers as well as Zombies in the Nazi Zombies game mode.

==Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] is classed as a machine gun in the game. In single-player it is never seen without a bipod, but this must be unlocked in multiplayer. It is the starting weapon in "Hard Landing", and can also be found in the trenches in "Burn 'em Out" and being carried by some allied Marines in "Breaking Point" and "Relentless".

==Browning M1919A4==
The [[Browning M1919A4]] is used in both infantry and mounted forms. It is used with a bipod equipped (which was only available for the M1919A6 version) in the mission "Relentless"; it is seen without a bipod later on in singleplayer. Either way, it would be impractical for it to be used as a man-portable weapon; the M1919A6 variant would have been more suitable for that role. In first-person view, it has a strip of cloth wrapped around the barrel close to the frame acting as a makeshift handguard, but this is absent on the world model. It is the last machine gun unlocked in multiplayer.

The PBY Catalina in "Black Cats" has M1919s dual-mounted in the bow turret and single gun mounted in the tail turret. It is also erroneously shown as the turret gun for the Soviet T-34 tank in both singleplayer campaign and multiplayer. A more accurate turret gun would be a mounted DP-28 (which is already in the game) or possibly the [[Goryunov SG-43 Machine Gun|SG-43]].

==Degtyaryev DP-28==
The [[Degtyaryov DP Series Machine Gun|Degtyaryev DP-28]] is only featured in multiplayer. It has decent power, but poor aim speed, running speed and reloading speed.

==MG34==
When starting up the game, archival footage of Wehrmacht soldiers firing a [[MG34]] is shown during the title reels. It is replaced by the man-portable MG42 in the game, though German tanks also mount the ''Panzerlauf'' version.
[[File:Mg-34.jpg|thumb|none|500px|MG34 with front and rear sights folded down - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] is the main machine gun used by the German Army, found both as a mounted weapon and a man-portable version. The version that can be picked up by the player incorrectly uses a 125-round belt drum in singleplayer and Nazi Zombies, although this is corrected to 50 rounds in multiplayer. It can be found in the mission "Vendetta" which is set in the Battle of Stalingrad, however, while the MG42 actually saw limited use at Stalingrad, the game's depiction commits the common error of showing the weapon with the post 1943 vertical charging handle instead of the period appropriate and rare slab-sided horizontal handle. It is also anachronistic for the pre-1943 multiplayer maps.

==Type 99==
The [[Type 99 Light Machine Gun|Type 99]] is the main Japanese light machine gun. It incorrectly holds 32 rounds in singleplayer, but correctly 30 in multiplayer. The bipod and a bayonet can be unlocked as attachments for the Type 99 in multiplayer.

=Launchers=

==M9A1 Bazooka==
Miller picks up an [[M9A1 "Bazooka"|M9A1 Bazooka]] to destroy the Japanese tanks during the assault on Peleliu airfield in "Hard Landing". It is also used by two Soviet Soldiers in the level "Downfall". It is one of the immediately unlocked Perks when "Create a Class" is unlocked. The sight is incorrectly depicted with a German sniper scope style reticle.

==Panzerfaust==
Although not a gameplay weapon, the [[Panzerfaust 60|Panzerfaust]] appears in the cutscene of the campaign level "Blood and Iron".

[[File:CoDWaWPanzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] is the main rocket launcher for the German Army and is seen in every mission of the Soviet campaign except "Vendetta". It is not available in multiplayer as an available perk nor weapon, though it does appear in Nazi Zombies.

[[File:Tank h5.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Panzerschreck - 88mm]]

This process completely ignores the presence of the rear sight (in fact, such a view would require the rear sight to either be removed, or be shoved into the operator's face); this error would be repeated in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''.]]
[[File:CODWAWPanzershreck3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the launcher. The rocket (which currently seems to be misaligned with the tube) is simply shoved in, without pressing down the contact pin on top of the contact box (not visible in this shot, as it is on the left side of the launcher, off of the edge of the screen); furthermore, considering how the Panzerschreck's rocket's tail had to be lined up carefully by manipulating a locking lever, loading the launcher like this would quite possibly lead to the rocket simply falling out of the tube. And given that a Panzerschreck is 65 inches (1.65 meters) long while the average WW2 soldier was ~68 inches (1.73 meters) tall, reloading like this would probably require a box to stand on or the muzzle to be shoved into the ground.]]
[[File:CODWAW Panzerschreck.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dmitri cautiously approaches a rare "highlighter-finished" Panzerschreck.]]

=Flamethrowers=
==M2 Flamethrower==
The player first acquires an [[M2 Flamethrower]] from the hands of a fallen Marine who is killed trying to clear a machine gun nest in "Hard Landing". In the levels "Burn Em' Out" and "Blowtorch and Corkscrew", Miller (rather appropriately) starts with the weapon. In The Eastern Front missions "Vendetta", "Heart of the Reich" and "Downfall", German soldiers use the M2, standing for the more accurate [[Flammenwerfer 35]]. It has infinite fuel, but to prevent endless streams of fire the weapon is managed by an overheat gauge; firing for too long will fill the gauge, at which point the weapon will refuse to fire until it has cooled down.

==M7 Grenade Launcher==
The [[M7 rifle grenade launcher]] is a muzzle device that attaches to the M1 Garand and is used a few times in the Pacific campaign; the first time is during the mission "Hard Landing" when the American force is attacking Japanese Type 96 25mm triple installations at the airfield on Peleliu Island. It is used to launch [[Mk 2 hand grenade]]s fitted with M1A1 rifle grenade adapters (this is anachronistic as the M1 adapter, which featured 4 claws and no stabilizing cup, was the only variant used during the war). In multiplayer, it can be attached to the M1 Garand and to the Springfield M1903A1 (which should use an M1 grenade launcher). There is a slight error in how they are presented: mounting one would normally require the rifle to first be emptied, then individual blank cartridges loaded for each shot fired; in-game, they're simply attached and fired.

It also incorrectly allows semi-automatic fire from the Garand while mounted: the wartime M7 could not do this.

==M18 smoke grenade==
The [[M18 smoke grenade]] is used as the "Tabun Gas" grenade in multiplayer. Tabun was the first nerve gas ever produced and the first of the "G-series" of non-persistent nerve agents, GA (Tabun), GB (Sarin), GD (Soman) and GF (Cyclosarin), being discovered accidentally by German scientists working on organophosphate insecticides in 1936. While over 12,500 tons of the chemical were produced during the war, it was only ever put into air-dropped bombs and artillery shells, not grenades, and was never used in combat.

==M34A1 Mortar Shell==
In "Breaking Point," Private Miller can pick up shells from Japanese mortar pits to use as improvised hand grenades. Though rendered as proper Type 100 mortar shells on the ground, they turn into 81mm M34A1 mortar shells in the player's hand.
[[File:CoDWaW mortarshell2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Holding the Mortar Shell.]]

==Mk 2 hand grenade==
The [[Mk 2 hand grenade]] is the standard American grenade in singleplayer and is the only frag grenade in multiplayer. It should also be noted that in the first mission, "Semper Fi", the Mk 2 is shown with the olive drab color. This is anachronistic as the mission is set in 1942 and Mk 2 hand grenades were completely yellow prior to 1943.

The Mk 2 grenade icon is also used for the grenade indicator icon, even when the grenade is not a Mk 2.

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
The [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] "Potato Masher" is the principle hand grenade used by the Germans, and is also the only hand grenade available in the Nazi Zombies mode.

Though there are no British troops in the game, the British [[No 74 ST Grenade|No. 74 S.T. Grenade]] is available. This is the only in-game remainder of a planned British campaign that was cut for time reasons during development.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] is available in-game, referred to by its famous nickname, the "Bouncing Betty". When placed, it will remain inert until an enemy moves near it, at which point it will leap upwards, before detonating at chest height.

==Oerlikon 20mm Cannon==
In "Black Cats", the player's Catalina is armed with twin [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon]]s under the bow turret. This is not part of any standard Catalina fit, but ''was'' reported as a field modification to "Black Cat" Catalinas in the Pacific; however, it required the removal of the twin M1919s in the bow turret, which are still present on the game's Catalina.

==Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun==
The [[Type 92 heavy machine gun]] is the main Japanese heavy machine gun and is found in every mission of the American campaign. In "Black Cats" Type 92 HMGs are mounted on Type T-25 MTBs.

==Type 99 Cannon==
[[Type 99 cannon]]s are mounted on the A6M Zeros. Several M6A Seiran floatplanes on the Sub Pens map also feature a pair of Type 99s in the wings. Designed to be operated from the massive ''I-400''-class aircraft carrier submarines (''I-400'' serves as the centrepiece of the map, with one of her sister subs also present), the real M6A did not actually feature offensive guns, but the in-game model is simply the game's Zero model with the nose/engine swapped for that of the Seiran, thus sharing its wing-mounted cannons.
[[Image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Type 99 cannon aircraft variants, top an earlier Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mm RB, bottom a later Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mm RB]]

=Others=

==8.8 cm FlaK 37==
8.8 cm FlaK 37 AA-Guns, which the same models as in [[Call of Duty 3]], are seen in the Russian campaign missions. Notably, during the "Heart of the Reich" mission where German soldiers defend the Reichstag-Building with various FlaKs. Unlike the following PaK 43, the FlaK's 88×571mmR shells are not modeled; instead, the Germans insert some sandbags.
[[Image:FlaK37.jpg|thumb|none|400px|8.8 cm FlaK 37 (note the pointer dials, the rectangular boxes on the side of the gun cradle with two circles) - 88x571mm R]]
[[file:CoDWaW Flak 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As usual, the 88 is missing the loading tray: this is actually fairly correct, as while the 88mm FlaKs were designed to be semi-automatic with shells placed in the tray and loaded by the automatic rammer as the gun recoiled, it was found that the crew could manually load them more quickly and the loading tray was seldom fitted in the field.]]
[[file:CoDWaW Flak 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Note the pointer dials, this is part of the AA gun laying system which distinguishes the 37 from the 36 or 18. The German second from left to the gun is holding a sandbag which he inserts to the gun standing in for an 8.8cm shell.]]

==8.8 cm Pak 43/41==
At the beginning of the mission "Heart of the Reich" Soviet soldiers fire two [[8.8 cm Pak 43|8.8 cm Pak 43/41]]s at the Reichstag building. Unfortunately, the gun breech on the model is static and there is no model for the round they are inserting, leading to the disagreeable impression that the player has encountered a group of elite Soviet combat mimes.

==203 mm howitzer M1931 (B-4)==
Archive footage in the game shows several of these 18-ton [[203 mm howitzer M1931 (B-4)]] during the introduction to the Soviet campaign's Berlin levels; they are seen being used in the direct fire role, shooting down streets with their barrels level. They do not appear during gameplay.

==Bofors 40mm==
Some [[Bofors 40mm]] AA guns are seen on the map "Battery".

==Thompson M1928A1==
A [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1928/M1928A1 Thompson|Thompson M1928A1]] fitted with a straight foregrip and a 30-round stick magazine appears in the hands of the American soldier prominently featured on the box art for the game, although it does not appear in the game itself.

[[File:Call of Duty World at War pc box.jpg|thumb|none|450px|The soldier in the foreground holds the Thompson M1928A1.]]

==Type 1 47mm Anti-Tank Gun==
Japanese soldiers use several Type 1 47mm Anti-Tank Guns in the singleplayer campaign mission "Hard Landing" and "Relentless". These guns were used in the ''1936-1939 The Spanish Civil War'' mod for [[Call of Duty 2]] as usable AT guns.

[[File:CoDWaW type at.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Japanese soldier operating the AT gun the level "Relentless".]]

==Type 3 200mm 'short' naval gun==
A Type 3 200mm naval gun must be destroyed in the singleplayer mission "Relentless". The naval gun can be seen also on some multiplayer maps.
[[Image:Type3ShortNavalgun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Type 3 200mm 'short' naval gun.]]

[[file:CODWAW navalgun2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Right view of the same gun.]]

==Type 96 AT / AA Gun==
Japanese [[Type 96 25 mm AT/AA Gun]]s in triple mountings, referred to as Triple 25 by the game, can be seen in several of the Pacific levels and commandeered by the player sometimes; per series traditions for large crew-served weapons, the gun has infinite ammunition (rather than 15-round magazines for each gun) and the player character is able to substitute for a nine-man crew by themselves.
[[Image:Type96AAGun.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Japanese Type 96 AT / AA Gun on triple mount - 25x163mm]]

==Type 97 81-mm Infantry Mortar==
The [[Type 97 Infantry Mortar|Type 97 Mortar]] is used by Japenese soldiers in the missions "Hard Landing", "Burn 'em out" and "Breaking Point". As mentioned earlier, when Miller picks up a Japanese mortar shell it turns into an American M34A1 shell.

== ACR vs. MSBS & VHS-2 vs. QBZ ==

Hi,

thanks for correcting my additions. I'm not interested in a conflict. I'm glad my IDs got challenged. But here is my point:

[[File:Modern warfare 3 2023 msbs grot vhs-1 rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Screen in question]]

The receiver split on the polish soldiers weapon is strait. Every ACR got a hump. So I thought that the MSBS would be a better pick.

[[File:MSBS GROT C16 FB-A0.jpg|thumb|400px|thumb|none|FB MSBS Grot C16 FB-A0 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:Remington ACR PDW rifle.jpg|thumb|450px|thumb|none|Remington ACR PDW - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

In case of the other soldier. I thought the large sights would give it away as a VHS-2 and there seems to be something in the caring handle that would bee the VHS-2's charging handle.

[[File:T97.ca.jpg|thumb|450px|thumb|none|Emei Type 97 NSR (Canadian civilian version of the QBZ-97) with T97.ca LHG (Lower Hand Guard) and FTU (Flat Top Upper) modifications - .223 Remington]]
[[File:VHS2.JPG|thumb|400px|thumb|none|HS Produkt VHS-D2 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

This is just my opinion, time will tell. --[[User:RRT877|RRT877]] ([[User talk:RRT877|talk]]) 17:05, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
:A VHS-2 with Grot bullpup elements is already [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#HS_Produkt_VHS-K2|in the previous game]], and as we know, the arsenal from ''MWII'' is supposed to be carried over in this game. The stock of the bullpup rifle much more closely resembles the QBZ. As for the ACR, it does appear to have some visual elements of the normal Grot, but we have to wait until the game is actually available to determine this in detail. It does have the Remington ACR style brass deflector.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 18:34, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

:The "sn_boscar" is apparently a part of the same weapon platform as the AN-94 (both have the jp36 prefix). I don't know of any "sniper" variant of the AN-94... Also, the only launcher I can think of that would fit the "dromeo" codename would be the M47 Dragon (aka FGM-77). --[[User:MonocledTarantula432|MonocledTarantula432]] ([[User talk:MonocledTarantula432|talk]]) 06:32, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

:Damn, they really did a number on that poor AN-94. And the .410 AR is apparently full-auto, that's new. [[User:Pyr0m4n14c|Pyr0m4n14c]] ([[User talk:Pyr0m4n14c|talk]]) 02:29, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
::That poor AN-94. I can't recall ever seeing a .410 in a game before, but making it the full auto one should hopefully balance well. Putting "Adaptable" in the ACR's description is a nice touch. The G36K thankfully looks pretty decent (by modern CoD standards), and hopefully the rather high top rail means the expected integrated optics option(s) are actually higher like they should be, unlike MW19. Interesting to see .277 Fury referred to by name, somehow I feel that'll be patched out. Still not sure what the heck the thing under the Model 635's barrel is, but we should be able to put normal barrels on it. As much as the (entirely unnecessary) "copyright-free" redesigns bother me, I do kinda like the "plausible alternate variants", like the ACR DMR. Keeping the "Striker" name despite this one being an actual UMP is still dumb, especially if the 9mm one does indeed turn out to be the SMG-9 with an HK-sounding name.

::::Thing with the "Striker" is that the model was mostly taken from MW19's SMG-45 blueprints that have a UMP resemblance, but yeah, they really should have used a different name. As for the copyright-free redesigns, I often see comments on the internet stating that they're avoiding promoting real guns due to California laws. Now, whether it's really due to this or simply to avoid lawsuits from real manufacturers, well... I'll leave it up to your imagination. --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 12:02, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

:::It really depends on the WWII guns however, because Vanguard has make the weapons from WWII to curse weapons even in CoD standards. The best they can do at this point is to make the weapons tactical, like the M1 Garand with Sage EBR, which did exist. The Thompson with some tactical parts that also exist and developed by Auto-Ordnance, which could be the answer to the ASM-1. Another one is the H-CAR, even though it won’t fire full-auto, Sledgehammer would make it full-auto. Even though it doesn’t make sense, it at least makes more sense than Vanguard’s .50cal BAR.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 05:40, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

== ACR vs. MSBS & VHS-2 vs. QBZ ==

Hi,

thanks for correcting my additions. I'm not interested in a conflict. I'm glad my IDs got challenged. But here is my point:

[[File:Modern warfare 3 2023 msbs grot vhs-1 rrt877.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Screen in question]]

The receiver split on the polish soldiers weapon is strait. Every ACR got a hump. So I thought that the MSBS would be a better pick.

[[File:MSBS GROT C16 FB-A0.jpg|thumb|400px|thumb|none|FB MSBS Grot C16 FB-A0 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:Remington ACR PDW rifle.jpg|thumb|450px|thumb|none|Remington ACR PDW - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

In case of the other soldier. I thought the large sights would give it away as a VHS-2 and there seems to be something in the caring handle that would bee the VHS-2's charging handle.

[[File:T97.ca.jpg|thumb|450px|thumb|none|Emei Type 97 NSR (Canadian civilian version of the QBZ-97) with T97.ca LHG (Lower Hand Guard) and FTU (Flat Top Upper) modifications - .223 Remington]]

This is just my opinion, time will tell. --[[User:RRT877|RRT877]] ([[User talk:RRT877|talk]]) 17:05, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
:A VHS-2 with Grot bullpup elements is already [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#HS_Produkt_VHS-K2|in the previous game]], and as we know, the arsenal from ''MWII'' is supposed to be carried over in this game. The stock of the bullpup rifle much more closely resembles the QBZ. As for the ACR, it does appear to have some visual elements of the normal Grot, but we have to wait until the game is actually available to determine this in detail. It does have the Remington ACR style brass deflector.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 18:34, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

::That poor AN-94. I can't recall ever seeing a .410 in a game before, but making it the full auto one should hopefully balance well. Putting "Adaptable" in the ACR's description is a nice touch. The G36K thankfully looks pretty decent (by modern CoD standards), and hopefully the rather high top rail means the expected integrated optics option(s) are actually higher like they should be, unlike MW19. Interesting to see .277 Fury referred to by name, somehow I feel that'll be patched out. Still not sure what the heck the thing under the Model 635's barrel is, but we should be able to put normal barrels on it. As much as the (entirely unnecessary) "copyright-free" redesigns bother me, I do kinda like the "plausible alternate variants", like the ACR DMR. Keeping the "Striker" name despite this one being an actual UMP is still dumb, especially if the 9mm one does indeed turn out to be the SMG-9 with an HK-sounding name.

::::Thing with the "Striker" is that the model was mostly taken from MW19's SMG-45 blueprints that have a UMP resemblance, but yeah, they really should have used a different name. As for the copyright-free redesigns, I often see comments on the internet stating that they're avoiding promoting real guns due to California laws.

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III''''' is the twentieth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Sledgehammer Games instead of Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is the third installment of the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' reboot subseries started in 2019 and a back-to-back sequel of 2022's ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]''. It will be officially released on November 10, 2023, though preorders allow the game's campaign to be played early a week before.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III}}

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=

==Beretta 92FS==
A [[Beretta 92FS]] with a fictional MIL-STD 1913 rail similar to the one found on recent [[Taurus PT92]] variants is set to appear as the "Renetti". Unlike ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s Renetti, the safety is now correctly on the slide. It's not a [[Beretta M9A1]] or [[Beretta 92A1]] as the trigger guard shape doesn't resemble the one on either variant.
It fires in three-round burst by default.

[[File:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Taurus 92 1-920151-17 04.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Taurus PT92AF with rail. The gun in the game has a frame that very closely resemble the PT92's, although the Renetti has more rail slots.]]

===CAA RONI===
Using the "Full-Auto Carbine Conversion" places the Beretta into a [[CAA RONI]] carbine conversion kit.

[[File:CAA Roni Beretta 92F.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS mounted in CAA RONI-G1 - 9x19mm]]

==Glock 21C==
The [[Glock 21]] appears under the name "COR-45". This time, it is the 21C variant with compensator cuts, and is full black. It is also a hybrid of the 3rd and 5th generation models, as it has the former's guide rod, square slide edges and non-ambidextrous slide stop (in fact, it lacks one), combined with a lack of finger grooves and an enlarged magazine release similar to the latter. Differences from the real model also include a differently shaped trigger guard, a flat face skeletonized trigger and a MIL-STD 1913 rail with three slots. It can be assumed it will share the same base platform as the X12 and X13 in 9mm, as they are both based on Glock pistols and their grip areas are almost identical, however the markings suggest it's manufactured by Corvus and not XRK. The logic of who manufactures what in the rebooted Modern Warfare trilogy is beyond anyone's comprehension.

[[File:G21 Gen5 MOS FS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Glock 21 MOS FS (5th Generation) - .45 ACP]]

==RSh-12==
The [[RSh-12]] is seen in the multiplayer trailer.

[[File:RSh-12.jpg|thumb|none|350px|RSh-12 - 12.7x55mm]]

=Submachine Guns=

==Custom 9mm AR-15==
A custom 9mm AR-15 with the same receiver as ''Modern Warfare II''’s [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#"M4"|"M4"]] appears as the "AMR9", which is coincidentally the same name as the five-round burst AR platform weapon (also classified as an SMG) from ''[[Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare|Advanced Warfare]]''. The weapon's file name IDs it as the [[M16 rifle series#Colt 9mm Submachine Gun|Model 635]] (fixed carry handle, slim handguards, 4-position stock from the [[M16 rifle series#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733|Model 653]]), while the presence of a flattop upper would make it closer to the Model 991 (removable carry handle, KAC rail system, 6-position stock from the [[M4A1]]). Given that only the lower receiver and pistol grip seem to be factory-original, it very well could be a Model 635 with a replacement upper assembly and stock.

[[File:Colt R0991.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt 9mm SMG (aka Colt R0991) with RIS handguard and folding rear sight, for comparison - 9x19mm]]

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1==
The [[CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1]] appears, stylized similarly to its ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' counterpart. The campaign premiere for "Operation 627" referred to it by its real name, "Scorpion Evo 3", however it has been changed to "Rival-9".

[[File:Evo 3 A1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 - 9x19mm]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is set to appear as the "Striker". It reuses the "Undertaker" blueprint from ''MW19'' (which visually changed that game's [[LWRC SMG-45|SMG-45]] into a UMP45), though rather bizarrely the magazine has been remodelled to be too short. The MW19 version featured a correct-length magazine correctly holding 25 rounds, while the ''MWIII'' iteration features a too-short magazine (roughly 20) that somehow holds 30 rounds, and despite this the magazine is very clearly marked with a large "25".

==IMI Uzi==
The [[IMI Uzi]] is scheduled to appear as the "WSP-9".

==Fostech Origin-12==
A [[Fostech Origin-12]] is seen in a promotional screenshot, it is set to appear as the "Haymaker" (which is coincidentally named as the similarly functioning shotgun in ''[[BO3]]''). A customized version of the Origin-12 is set to appear as the "Recon Haymaker", used by the Support Juggernaut.

==Remington 870==
The "Lockwood 680" is a stylized tactical [[Remington 870]] pump-action shotgun, similar to the "Model 680" from ''MW19''.
[[File:Rem870mcs 14.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Remington Model 870 MCS Entry - 12 gauge. The model in game uses a standard synthetic non-pistol grip stock by default.]]

=="Riveter"==
A .410-gauge automatic shotgun possibly based on the ATI Omni .410 (an AR-15-styled shotgun) is available in the beta as the "Riveter". It has a 15-round magazine and fires in full-auto.
[[File:Omni410.jpg|thumb|none|450px|ATI Omni - .410 gauge]]

=Rifles=

==AN-94/AK-74M hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[AN-94]]'s barrel and forend with an [[AK-74M]]/[[AK-100 series]] receiver appears as the "SVA 545." The rifle also features an unusual gap between the trigger guard and magazine release, similar to the [[Type 81]]. It's modeled with a Zenitco PT-1 stock, uncanted magazine well, railed handguard and full top rails. Despite this odd combination of visual elements, in gameplay terms the rifle is intended to be an AN-94, featuring its two-round hyperburst at the beginning of every trigger pull.

[[File:FN F2000 TR rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN F2000 Tactical TR with gray finish - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==Heckler & Koch G36==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36]] resembling the stylized ''MW19'' counterpart appears in the assault rifles class as the "Holger 556‎".
[[File:G36A1.1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch G36A1.1 with an IdZ stock - 5.56x45mm]]

==Heckler & Koch G36K==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36K]] with a G36C carry handle appears in the light machine gun class as the "Holger 26", using a 60-round single drum magazine by default. The G36C carry handle is taller than the real version, a middle ground between it and the integrated optics carry handle. It can equip several full-length G36 barrel options (one of which has an integrated bipod), a 100-round double drum or 40-round magazine (no smaller, likely so as to not overlap in role with the assault rifle class version), as well as a stylized depiction of the G36's integrated carry handle optic.

[[File:HKG36KR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch G36K with G36C carry handle - 5.56x45mm]]

===Heckler & Koch MG36===
Equipping the above G36K with the G36-length integrated bipod barrel, integrated optic, and 100-round drum makes for a proper [[MG36]] build.

==SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX-SPEAR]] is set to appear in the game as the "BAS-B". Unlike the [[LoneStar Future Weapons RM277]]-based rifle from the previous game, it is stated to chamber the real life ".277 Fury" instead of "6.8 Wrath". Similar to ''[[Battlefield 2042]]'', the weapon is depicted without its custom-designed SIG SLX suppressor by default.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears as the "Pulemyot 762", with ''Pulemyot'' being Russian for ''machine gun''.

[[File:Pecheneg.jpg|thumb|none|450px|PKP Pecheneg - 7.62x54mm R]]

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III''''' is the twentieth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Sledgehammer Games instead of Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is the third installment of the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' reboot subseries started in 2019 and a back-to-back sequel of 2022's ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]''. It will be officially released on November 10, 2023, though preorders allow the game's campaign to be played early a week before.

=Pistols=

==Beretta 92FS==
A [[Beretta 92FS]] with a fictional MIL-STD 1913 rail similar to the one found on recent [[Taurus PT92]] variants is set to appear as the "Renetti". Unlike ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s Renetti, the safety is now correctly on the slide. It's not a [[Beretta M9A1]] or [[Beretta 92A1]] as the trigger guard shape doesn't resemble the one on either variant.
It fires in three-round burst by default.

[[File:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Taurus 92 1-920151-17 04.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Taurus PT92AF with rail. The gun in the game has a frame that very closely resemble the PT92's, although the Renetti has more rail slots.]]

===CAA RONI===
Using the "Full-Auto Carbine Conversion" places the Beretta into a [[CAA RONI]] carbine conversion kit.

[[File:CAA Roni Beretta 92F.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS mounted in CAA RONI-G1 - 9x19mm]]

==Glock 21C==
The [[Glock 21]] appears under the name "COR-45". This time, it is the 21C variant with compensator cuts, and is full black. It is also a hybrid of the 3rd and 5th generation models, as it has the former's guide rod, square slide edges and non-ambidextrous slide stop (in fact, it lacks one), combined with a lack of finger grooves and an enlarged magazine release similar to the latter. Differences from the real model also include a differently shaped trigger guard, a flat face skeletonized trigger and a MIL-STD 1913 rail with three slots. It can be assumed it will share the same base platform as the X12 and X13 in 9mm, as they are both based on Glock pistols and their grip areas are almost identical, however the markings suggest it's manufactured by Corvus and not XRK. The logic of who manufactures what in the rebooted Modern Warfare trilogy is beyond anyone's comprehension.

==RSh-12==
The [[RSh-12]] is seen in the multiplayer trailer.

[[File:RSh-12.jpg|thumb|none|350px|RSh-12 - 12.7x55mm]]

=Submachine Guns=

==Custom 9mm AR-15==
A custom 9mm AR-15 with the same receiver as ''Modern Warfare II''’s [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#"M4"|"M4"]] appears as the "AMR9", which is coincidentally the same name as the five-round burst AR platform weapon (also classified as an SMG) from ''[[Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare|Advanced Warfare]]''. The weapon's file name IDs it as the [[M16 rifle series#Colt 9mm Submachine Gun|Model 635]] (fixed carry handle, slim handguards, 4-position stock from the [[M16 rifle series#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733|Model 653]]), while the presence of a flattop upper would make it closer to the Model 991 (removable carry handle, KAC rail system, 6-position stock from the [[M4A1]]). Given that only the lower receiver and pistol grip seem to be factory-original, it very well could be a Model 635 with a replacement upper assembly and stock.

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1==
The [[CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1]] appears, stylized similarly to its ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' counterpart. The campaign premiere for "Operation 627" referred to it by its real name, "Scorpion Evo 3", however it has been changed to "Rival-9".

[[File:Evo 3 A1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 - 9x19mm]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is set to appear as the "Striker". It reuses the "Undertaker" blueprint from ''MW19'' (which visually changed that game's [[LWRC SMG-45|SMG-45]] into a UMP45), though rather bizarrely the magazine has been remodelled to be too short. The MW19 version featured a correct-length magazine correctly holding 25 rounds, while the ''MWIII'' iteration features a too-short magazine (roughly 20) that somehow holds 30 rounds, and despite this the magazine is very clearly marked with a large "25".

'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III''''' is the twentieth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty]]'' first-person shooter series. Developed by Sledgehammer Games instead of Infinity Ward and published by Activision, it is the third installment of the ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' reboot subseries started in 2019 and a back-to-back sequel of 2022's ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)|Modern Warfare II]]''. It will be officially released on November 10, 2023, though preorders allow the game's campaign to be played early a week before.

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=

==Beretta 92FS==
A [[Beretta 92FS]] with a fictional MIL-STD 1913 rail similar to the one found on recent [[Taurus PT92]] variants is set to appear as the "Renetti". Unlike ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]''’s Renetti, the safety is now correctly on the slide. It's not a [[Beretta M9A1]] or [[Beretta 92A1]] as the trigger guard shape doesn't resemble the one on either variant.
It fires in three-round burst by default.

===CAA RONI===
Using the "Full-Auto Carbine Conversion" places the Beretta into a [[CAA RONI]] carbine conversion kit.

==Glock 21C==
The [[Glock 21]] appears under the name "COR-45". This time, it is the 21C variant with compensator cuts, and is full black. It is also a hybrid of the 3rd and 5th generation models, as it has the former's guide rod, square slide edges and non-ambidextrous slide stop (in fact, it lacks one), combined with a lack of finger grooves and an enlarged magazine release similar to the latter. Differences from the real model also include a differently shaped trigger guard, a flat face skeletonized trigger and a MIL-STD 1913 rail with three slots. It can be assumed it will share the same base platform as the X12 and X13 in 9mm, as they are both based on Glock pistols and their grip areas are almost identical, however the markings suggest it's manufactured by Corvus and not XRK. The logic of who manufactures what in the rebooted Modern Warfare trilogy is beyond anyone's comprehension.

==RSh-12==
The [[RSh-12]] is seen in the multiplayer trailer.

=Submachine Guns=

==Custom 9mm AR-15==
A custom 9mm AR-15 with the same receiver as ''Modern Warfare II''’s [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)#"M4"|"M4"]] appears as the "AMR9", which is coincidentally the same name as the five-round burst AR platform weapon (also classified as an SMG) from ''[[Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare|Advanced Warfare]]''. The weapon's file name IDs it as the [[M16 rifle series#Colt 9mm Submachine Gun|Model 635]] (fixed carry handle, slim handguards, 4-position stock from the [[M16 rifle series#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733|Model 653]]), while the presence of a flattop upper would make it closer to the Model 991 (removable carry handle, KAC rail system, 6-position stock from the [[M4A1]]). Given that only the lower receiver and pistol grip seem to be factory-original, it very well could be a Model 635 with a replacement upper assembly and stock.

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1==
The [[CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1]] appears, stylized similarly to its ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' counterpart. The campaign premiere for "Operation 627" referred to it by its real name, "Scorpion Evo 3", however it has been changed to "Rival-9".

[[File:Rem870mcs 14.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Remington Model 870 MCS Entry - 12 gauge. The model in game uses a standard synthetic non-pistol grip stock by default.]]

[[File:Omni410.jpg|thumb|none|450px|ATI Omni - .410 gauge]]

=Rifles=

==AN-94/AK-74M hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[AN-94]]'s barrel and forend with an [[AK-74M]]/[[AK-100 series]] receiver appears as the "SVA 545." The rifle also features an unusual gap between the trigger guard and magazine release, similar to the [[Type 81]]. It's modeled with a Zenitco PT-1 stock, uncanted magazine well, railed handguard and full top rails. Despite this odd combination of visual elements, in gameplay terms the rifle is intended to be an AN-94, featuring its two-round hyperburst at the beginning of every trigger pull.

MG 81

2023-10-07T20:07:53Z

Alex T Snow:

The '''MG 81''' was a German belt-fed flexible-mount machine gun, generally replacing the [[MG 15]] as a defensive aircraft weapon. The MG 81 was developed by Mauser as a derivative of their successful [[MG 34]] infantry machine gun; developed in 1938/1939, it was in production from 1940 to 1945. Some were setup for infantry use later in the war.

==MG 81Z==

The twin-mount '''MG 81Z''' (the Z suffix stands for ''Zwilling'', meaning "twin") was introduced in 1942. It paired up two of the weapons on one mount to provide even more firepower with a maximum rate of fire of 3200 rounds per minute, without requiring much more space than a standard machine gun. The MG 81Z was also used in several rather unique setups, such as the ''Giesskanne'' ("watering can") gunpod used on Ju 87s and Ju 88s, which featured three guns (six barrels) per pod, thus with two gunpods (twelve barrels) giving a combined rate of fire of ''19200 rounds per minute''.

Strike Witches

2023-10-07T20:07:10Z

Alex T Snow:

[[Image:Strike-witches.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Strike Witches'' (2008)]]

Set in an alternate timeline World War II, ''Strike Witches'' focuses on Witches, elite pilots with innate magical ability, who fly Striker Units and fight against the alien Neuroi who have attacked Earth and devastated most of Europe. The existence of magic makes the world inherently different, however most events and history are largely similar until the Great War. During the World War, powerful aliens attacked humanity, interrupting the war; although they were defeated, interruption of the war had lasting effects. Nazi-ism never formed in the Empire of Karlsland (based on Germany), the Bolshevik Revolution never occurred in Orussia (based on Russia), Ostmark (based on Austria-Hungary) still exists in full; also of note is that the Italian unification never occurred, leaving the Duchy of Romagna and Duchy of Venezia both on the Apennine Peninsula. Earth's geography differs slightly as well, notably the coastline of North America, but as a whole the world can be defined as "alternate timeline Earth"; for a world map, see the [[Talk:Luminous Witches#Luminous Witches World Tour|''Luminous Witches'' Talk Page]].

In 1937, the Neuroi attacked the Empire of Fuso (based on Japan), but thanks largely to the next generation of striker units and the witches flying them, the Neuroi were repulsed. In 1939, several Neuroi hives formed over Europe, obliterating cities, killing thousands, and forcing humanity to retreat. Much like the real world Fall of Europe in 1939/40, humanity's last free bastion in Europe became the Commonwealth of Britannia (based on Britain), a safe haven only because Neuroi are averse to crossing bodies of water. Given this context, humanity's countries are not at war with each other, but united to defend against the Neuroi, and as such witches and other military members from all nations work and fight alongside one another.

The story of ''Strike Witches'' picks up in early 1944, when Yoshika Miyafuji, due to her extremely strong magical ability, is recruited to by Squadron Leader Mio Sakamoto of the Imperial Fuso Navy to become a witch. The first season introduces the world and setting of the series, and follows Yoshika's struggles to become a witch in the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, known as the Strike Witches. The 501st JFW's base is located in Folkestone Harbour, which in the real world was an important strategic port, especially notable for its involvement in the Dunkirk evacuation. All witches in the series are based on real world WWII fighter pilots, those details noted for each character as they come up on this page.

In chronological order, ''Strike Witches'' runs parallel to ''[[Luminous Witches]]'' and is followed by ''[[Brave Witches]]'', both of which are set before ''[[Strike Witches 2]]''.

{{Anime Title}}

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Walther PPK==
A [[Walther PPK]] is issued to Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji (inspired by Japanese ace Kaneyoshi Mutou) when she first arrives in Britannia, however she refuses the pistol, stating a dislike for guns. To explain Yoshika's mindset, Yoshika's father, Ichiro Miyafuji (inspired by Jiro Horikoshi, chief designer of many WWII Japanese aircraft) worked on and perfected the striker units the witches use, but he was killed in an accident in his lab in the late '30s, and as such Yoshika, a young civilian in Fuso away from the war, always saw the conflict as little more than a terrible, far away thing that stole her father from her. Yoshika accepts Mio's offer to come to Europe on the condition that she simply wants to help people, however Yoshika fairly quickly learns that to help the most people, one must fight the Neuroi. Although she initially turned down the PPK, official artwork shows Yoshika using a [[Mauser C96#Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|Mauser M712]] machine pistol as her sidearm sometime before the end of the first season.

Wing Commander Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke of Karlsland (inspired by German ace Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke) uses an identical PPK, which she either keeps on her person or pulled out for the occasion she is seen using it. It's possible it's issued to all new witches of the 501st, but it's not seen otherwise.

[[Image:SWPPKS1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The PPK lies on top of a box containing Yoshika Miyafuji's personal effects. Note the Walther logo, and that the safety is on. (Ep.3)]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Sten Mk II==
[[Sten Mk II]] submachine guns are used by Britannian troops under the command of Air Chief Marshall Trevor Maloney, ordering the 501st JFW be disbanded, intent on replacing witches with his new mechanized Warlock aircraft/mech. Maloney and his actions are directly inspired by Air Vice-Marshal Trafford Leigh-Mallory, and Leigh-Mallory's similar political moves during the Battle of Britain.

[[Image:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[Image:SWSTEN1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Britannian soldiers hold their Stens behind Maloney. The 501st's base is inspired by the island of Mont Saint-Michel, though it sits just off the coast of Folkestone, on the opposite side of the English Channel from the real world island. (Ep.10)]]
[[Image:SWSTEN3.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The soldiers gripping their Stens by the magazines, effectively asking for them to jam in the event they need to actually shoot someone. (Ep.10)]]

[[Image:SWSTEN6.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The injured and presently wheelchair-bound Mio surrenders her katana to a Britannian soldier, with a Sten slung over his shoulder. (Ep.11)]]

=Rifles=
==Boys Mk I*==
Flight Sergeant Lynette Bishop of Britannia uses a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] with the bipod removed in her role as the 501st's designated marksman. Lynette, along with her older sister Wilma, are inspired by the children of WWI Canadian ace Billy Bishop, William and Margaret Bishop, both of whom served in WWII, William as a Spitfire pilot. While Lynette is purely Britannian, in a reversal of the Bishop sisters' inspiration Wilma enlisted and serves in the Faraway Land Air Force (Canada, but name inspired by Newfoundland). Wilma does not appear in the anime, but is the protagonist of the ''One-Winged Witches'' manga, which follows the Isle of Wight Detachment Group.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
A [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] is carried by Flying Officer Pierrette-Henriette "Perrine" Clostermann (inspired by French ace Pierre Henri Clostermann) of Gallia (France). She would prefer to use an [[Chatellerault Light Machine Gun|FM 24/29]], but uses the much more common (in Britannia) Bren due to Gallia being occupied by the Neuroi. The gun's bipod has been removed due to being entirely unnecessary for an airborne witch, and its sling is attached in an unusual manner; the front end is attached to where the bipod legs used to connect, while the rear is attached to where the rear grip used to exist on the previous Mk 1 version of the Bren. This method of attaching the sling is consistently depicted this way in all later ''Witches'' series content as well.

[[Image:SWBREN8.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Realizing her machine gun is no use against a metal bulkhead, Perrine discards her empty Bren. (Ep.12)]]

==Browning M1918A2==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic_Rifle|Browning Automatic Rifle]], with its bipod removed (this is a trend), is the preferred weapon of Flight Lieutenant Charlotte Elwyn "Shirley" Yeager of the United States of Liberion. Naturally, Charlotte is inspired by American ace (and later test pilot) Charles Elwood "Chuck" Yeager, while the USL is inspired by the United States of America. Shirley, ever the mechanic and tinkerer, isn't especially impressed with her BAR, but appreciates its durability despite its other drawbacks.

[[Image:BAR.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Browning M1918A2 - .30-06 Springfield]]

[[Image:SWBAR1919.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte and Francesca train against Yoshika and Perrine in a mock battle. Note that (as with most strikers based on aircraft with inline engines) the P-51 striker's "airplane" element is "backwards", with the fuselage cutoff behind the cockpit for the witch's legs to enter. The wings, air intakes, exhaust (etc) are all turned back around to face the correct way, while the propeller stays where it "should be" on the fuselage. Strikers based on aircraft with ''radial'' engines (as used by Yoshika and Mio) face the opposite way, keeping the entire fuselage, moving the propeller and exhaust to just before the tail, and having the witch's legs enter where the engine would be. (Ep.9)]]
[[Image:SWBARMG421.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte looks back in surprise as Yoshika gets the drop on her. Note the training-version BAR, with all its metal parts coloured orange to denote that it fires paint rounds. (Ep.9)]]

[[Image:SWBAR5.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte and company join up with Yoshika during the final battle. Witches' legs do not actually fit inside their strikers, but rather phase into a pocket dimension / "hammerspace", as the majority of space inside striker units houses their piston-driven, magic-fuelled engines. The ability to store witches' legs in a pocket dimension was the major breakthrough by Yoshika's father; striker units before this required separate magic engines worn as backpacks, which were drastically more bulky and inefficient. (Ep.12)]]

==Browning M1919A6==
The [[Browning M1919A6]] is carried by Pilot Officer Francesca Lucchini (inspired by Italian ace Franco Lucchini) of Romagna. It was given to her by Charlotte, her best friend and combat partner, after Francesca misplaced the Romagnan weapons she had brought to Britannia with her. Francesca states that she likes the gun because of its high rate of fire, durability, and high ammo capacity. To allow witches to use it while flying, the M1919A6 has been modified with a fixed ammo box, with a handle on top she sometimes uses to hold the gun in a hipfire position.

==MG 42==
The [[MG 42]] is used by the members of the 501st from Karlsland and Suomus (Finland). While Minna and Flying Officer Erica Hartmann (inspired by German ace Erich Hartmann) use a single gun, Flight Lieutenant Gertrud Barkhorn (inspired by German ace Gerhard Barkhorn) prefers dual wielding MG 42s thanks to her increased strength ability (on top of all witches having more strength as a baseline). Flying Officer Eila Ilmatar Juutilainen (inspired by Finnish ace Eino Ilmari Juutilainen) of Suomus also uses the MG 42. Eila's magical trait of short-term precognition allows her to effortlessly dodge enemy fire, to the degree that she's never used a magic shield, the staple of every other witch's combat abilities; this trait is inspired by her namesake having never been hit by enemy fire, despite being the highest scoring non-German ace in history.

All witches' MG 42s in the series are modified to use a stylized version of the 75-round Patronentrommel 34 drum magazine from the [[MG 34]]; given the slightly different design it presumably has its own designation in-universe, perhaps "Patronentrommel 42", though that's speculation. Use of a magazine rather than a belt is likely because it's far easier for an airborne witch to simply swap a magazine than deal with replacing a belt in mid-air; this sort of fictional-but-entirely-plausible weapon design appears for several notable weapons in the ''World Witches'' universe. Additionally, along with lacking a bipod like most witch weapons, the ''World Witches'' MG 42 features only four holes in the gun's muzzle booster (as opposed to twelve), its muzzle flash reflecting this throughout the series.

Kurt enlisted in the Army and worked in the maintenance division of Minna's squadron, so they could spend more time together. This would ultimately keep them apart forever, as Kurt remained behind to help evacuate the base in Calais, but never made it out himself. Minna's forbidding of witches to interact with male personal, and intense, panic-inducing aversion to the possibility of losing anyone close to her are rooted in this loss. (Ep.8)]]

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
A fictional iteration of the [[type 99 cannon|Type 99]] aircraft cannon in its flexible mount configuration is the standard armament for Fuso Empire witches. This iconic ''World Witches'' series weapon is a fictional iteration of a real world weapon, much like the iteration of the MG 42 that can use MG 34 drum magazines, and the M1919A6's fixed ammo box, but on a more substantial scale. It is used by both Yoshika Miyafuji and Mio Sakamoto (inspired by Japanese ace Saburou Sakai).

There are two versions of the real world Type 99 cannon, the Mark 1 and the Mark 2; the Mark 1 uses a 20x72mmRB round, while the Mark 2 was the same design scaled up to use a 20x101mmRB round. To further complicate matters, these two related guns also had their own variants, resulting in designations like "Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3" or "Type 99 Mark 2 Model 5". One variant of the Type 99 Mark 1 was outfitted for use in flexible mounts, giving it AA sights, a handguard, flash suppressor, stock pad, large ejection chute on top, and (crude) pistol grip.

Back in the ''World Witches'' universe, the need for witches to have an effective primary weapon arose, and so the '''Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai''', or Type 99 Mark 2 Model 2 Kai, was developed. Either translation is acceptable; the former is the official ''World Witches'' translation, the latter is the same designation using the established Western terms for the Type 99 family.

While the "Type 99-2" designation should mean it's based on the larger Mark 2 in 20x101mmRB, the gun's proportions and size are very clearly that of the smaller Mark 1. The Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai takes the infantry-rifle-like traits of the flexible mount Type 99 Mark 1 variant and improves them. The notable improvements from the flexible mount design are a more traditionally-shaped receiver, deletion of the top ejection chute in favour of a traditional side-mounted ejection port, and a traditional pistol grip assembly; in short, it was developed into a practical rifle-style weapon, albeit a very large and heavy one. In addition to the physical/mechanical improvements, while the original Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai prototypes were in the original 20x101mmRB cartridge (despite visually being based on the Mark 1), tests showed it was a bit too powerful to be practical, even for witches. As such, it was rechambered for the 13.2x96mm Hotchkiss cartridge, also used in the [[Ho-103|Type 3 aircraft machine gun]].

Additionally, on the design sketch of the Type 99 seen below there is a line of text inside a box, pointing to the rear end of the long tube on the left side of the receiver; this text translates to "load the first bullet by pressing this button", meaning that's the charging "button". However, the charging button isn't actually used on-screen until ''[[Strike Witches: The Movie]]''.

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
The Fliegerhammer is a fictional multi-barrel rocket launcher used by Flying Officer Aleksandra Vladimirovna "Sanya" Litvyak (inspired by Russian ace Lydia Vladimirovna Litvyak) of Orussia. The Fliegerhammer, or "Flyer/Plane Hammer", was designed by Erica Hartmann's twin sister and genius engineer Ursula Hartmann (named for Erich Hartmann's wife, Ursula Paetsch), and inspired by (both in-universe and from a writing standpoint) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]]. Like the Fliegerfaust, the Fliegerhammer is a nine-barrel, unguided rocket launcher, though Sanya and some other witches are able to guide or partially guide the rockets with their magic. The launcher's large, boxy shape is also reminiscent of the more modern [[M202 FLASH]].

The Fliegerhammer is capable of firing in two modes, either single rockets sequentially, in which case the rockets launch by row top-to-bottom, within rows right-to-left, or in a volley fire setting where four rockets fire in a "+" shape, followed a fraction of a second later by the remaining five in a "×" shape; the design artwork below lists the delay as "4 to 6 frames" (as it's animation reference material) which equates to a roughly 0.2 second delay before the second salvo. The fire mode is controlled by a selector switch on the pistol grip; the vertical position is volley fire, the rearward position is single fire. The rear offhand grip and shoulder rest fold flush with the body of the weapon when not in use. The Fliegerhammer is reusable, with rockets loaded by inserting them into the rear.

==Naval Weapons==
In addition to ''Akagi'', the Imperial Fuso Navy fleet that carries Mio and Yoshika to Britannia also consists of eight ''Kagerou''-class destroyers. Specifically, these are the ships of 16th Destroyer Division (''Yukikaze'', ''Amatsukaze'', ''Hatsukaze'', ''Tokitsukaze'') and 17th Destroyer Division (''Urakaze'', ''Isokaze'', ''Hamakaze'', ''Tanikaze''). The carrier is fitted with six 20cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons in casemate mounts, six twin [[Type 10 naval gun|12cm/45 Type 10]] anti-air cannons and fourteen twin 25mm [[Type 96 cannon|Type 96]] anti-air cannons along either side of the flight deck, and a pair of single 7.7mm [[Lewis Gun#Type 92|Type 92]] machine guns fore and aft of the bridge. The destroyers are equipped with four 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons in two twin turrets as their primary armament, as well as twenty-nine 25mm Type 96 AA guns, fourteen in single mounts and fifteen in five triple mounts.

Alex T Snow: German nomenclature touch up

[[File:MG34 HMG with bipod and AA sight.jpg|thumb|right|400px|MG 34 Panzerlauf with bipod and anti-aircraft sight - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

The '''MG 34''' is a general-purpose machine gun produced by Germany during the Second World War. The forerunner of the more widely produced [[MG 42]], the weapon was noted for long production times due to use of time-intensive machined parts, but remained in production alongside its replacement throughout the war. It was developed to fit a tactical concept called the "universal machine gun," wherein the same weapon would be used in both the light and medium machine gun roles: what is today known as a general-purpose machine gun.

A variation of the gun, the '''MG 34 Panzerlauf''', was commonly used as secondary armament on German tanks, since the MG 42's barrel change system could not easily be operated when it was mounted. This version lacked a stock, featured an armored barrel shroud and could be fitted with a solenoid for remote firing. Tanks carried a kit to allow the ''Panzerlauf'' variant to be converted for ground use, including a stock and bipod.

The MG 34 could use several different feeding variations: for use as a medium machine gun, it was issued with loose 250 round metal belts with disintegrating links (which could be linked together as desired). When employed as a light machine gun it was instead used with a drum called the ''Gurttrommel 34'' which mounted to the left side of the weapon and contained a 50-round belt. It could also use 75 round saddle drum magazines called ''Patronentrommel 34''. To use the latter, the standard feed cover had to be replaced with a magazine holder. This feeding variant was mainly used early in the war and often when the MG 34 was utilized as AA gun or mounted on a tripod. Later in the war those were not supplied anymore as they were very complicated to reload and even needed a tool for this, and the ability to use this magazine was eliminated entirely on the MG 42.

MG 42

2023-10-07T19:59:24Z

Alex T Snow: German nomenclature touch up

Adopted by Germany in 1942, in an effort to reduce the machining time and cost inherent in the production of the [[MG 34]], the '''MG 42''' (MG standing for ''Maschinengewehr'', literally "Machine Rifle" but usually translated as "machine gun" in this context) is perhaps the deadliest machine gun used during the war. Geared for mass production above all else, it was designed to take full advantage of modern production techniques such as replacing machined components with stamped ones; one of the key figures in the project, Ernst Grunow, had no prior experience in firearm design whatsoever and worked for Großfuß AG, a company that normally made sheet-metal lanterns.

The result was a weapon that took 50% fewer man hours to build than the MG 34 and cost 24% less. Light weight and great reliability made it one of the first true modern general purpose machine guns, able to be used in the light machine gun role on a bipod or the medium machine gun role on a tripod. The light weight of operating components make the MG 42 one of the fastest-firing single-barrel guns which does not require an external power source; with a cyclic rate of 1200 rounds per minute, individual shots are mostly indiscernible. The rate is so fast that even a trained operator has trouble firing a single shot from the full-auto only gun. The distinctive sound led to nicknames such as "Hitler's buzzsaw." The MG 42 also features an extremely fast barrel change system, allowing sustained fire even with the extremely high fire rate.

The weapon was issued in the light machine gun role with an ammo drum containing a 50-round belt (the same one used on the MG 34), while in the medium role the MG 42 typically used 250-round belts. The gun is chambered in the 7.92x57mm Mauser cartridge (also known as 8mm Mauser), the same cartridge used in the well known [[Karabiner 98k|K98k]] infantry rifles, and ammunition is interchangeable (though Kar 98 ammunition was not issued in belts, making this of limited use in practical terms). Machine gun ammunition was slightly more powerful in order to avoid jams and run the mechanism more reliably.

[[File:MG 3.jpg|thumb|right|400px|MG74 - 7.62x51mm NATO. This is an Austrian variant of the MG 42 manufactured by Steyr Mannlicher.]]
[[File:MG3KWS.jpeg|thumb|right|400px|MG3KWS with Steiner 1-5x24 scope - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

The MG3 is an updated version of the MG 42, chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO and first introduced in 1958. Changes include a chrome-lined barrel, a new friction ring buffer, an improved feeding mechanism, recalibrated sights and NATO compatibility. Some versions feature a heavier bolt to reduce the rate of fire, allowing the MG3 to be fired from the shoulder more easily.

The MG3KWS (German: Kampfwertsteigerung; lit. "Combat improvements") is a modernized variant of the MG3, developed by Rheinmetall and Tactical Groups. It was designed as a substitute until the [[Heckler & Koch MG5]], a 7.62x51mm NATO variant of the [[MG4]], could be able to fully supplant all MG3s currently in service. The MG3KWS has many distinguishing features from the original MG3, such as a Picatinny rail system on top of the receiver and heat shield hand guard, an adjustable cheekpiece, a shoulder rest, a revised bipod, and a unique carry handle which doubles as a foregrip.

==Zastava M53==
[[Image:Zastava M53.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Zastava M53 - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]
After WWII, this MG 42 variant was built in Yugoslavia as the M53 machine gun using original German machinery, retaining the 7.92x57mm Mauser caliber. Because of this, the original weapon's design features were retained, making the M53 a near exact copy of the German MG 42. The only major difference is a slower rate of fire.

===Specifications===

* '''Length:''' 48 inches
* '''Barrel Length:''' 20.18 inches
* '''Weight:''' Gun: 25.50 pounds

[[File:CetmeAmeliIMFDBVer2.jpg|thumb|right|500px|CETME Ameli - 5.56x45mm]]
A Spanish-made light machine gun externally based off the MG 42 / MG3, designed by CETME (Centre for Technical Studies of Military Equipment), chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO. It is basically a miniaturized version of the the full sized MG 42 / MG3 with some modern design changes.

It has been in service from 1982 to the present day. Despite its very close external resemblance to the German MGs, the weapon operates using a roller-locked delayed-blowback mechanism as opposed to the more simple roller-locked system, similar to the the vast majority of [[Heckler & Koch]] weapons.

The weapon is used with 100 or 200-round belts. A STANAG magazine adaptor that replaced the belt feed cover was also made for the Ameli, which and was rarely used.

===Specifications===

* '''Caliber:''' 5.56x45mm NATO

* '''Length:''' 38.2 inches

* '''Barrel Length:''' 15.75 inches

* '''Weight:''' Gun: 14 pounds

* '''Cyclic rate of fire:''' 850 or 1200 rounds per minute

FG 42

2023-10-07T19:51:09Z

Alex T Snow:

=Overview=
'''Rifle for paratroopers - project.''':
*'''Rheinmetall Paratrooper Rifle''' (No official name) - The model has a characteristic smooth stock.
**'''FG 42/I''' - The first variant accepted for production with an official name.
***'''FG 42/II''' - The second variant accepted for production with the official name.
*'''Krieghoff Paratrooper Rifle''' (No official name). It didn't get past the testing phase. After losing the competition, Krieghoff helped Rheinmetall to perfect the FG 42. The result was the creation of the second production model FG 42/II.
*'''Knorr-Bremse Paratrooper Rifle''' (No official name). Probably not a single complete model was made.
{{Clear}}
=FG 42=
The '''FG 42''' (German: '''Fallschirmjägergewehr 42''', '''"paratrooper rifle 42"''') its a automatic rifle was produced in limited numbers for the German Luftwaffe's ''Fallschirmjäger'' (paratrooper) units during the Second World War. The slim in-line design, coupled with the side mounted 20 round magazine made it one of the more distinctive designs of its era. Early models had a sharply angled pistol grip (the idea of which was to allow paratroopers to fire while descending, though it is unclear how successful this was in practice) and plastic furniture, while later models had a standard grip and wooden furniture. In addition the weapon could also be fitted with a ZF4 or ZFG42 scope. Both versions also featured an integral bipod and bayonet, the bayonet permanently mounted and deployed in a manner similar to that on the French [[MAS-36]].

The FG 42 was intended to be a universal weapon, merging the capabilities of a submachine gun, machine gun and precision rifle; designers complained they were being asked to make an "Eierlegende Wollmilchsau" (a egg-laying woolly dairy pig) and the Heer refused to participate in the program, stating that a gun meeting the Luftwaffe's requirements could only be found in utopia. In practice, the light weight of the FG 42 coupled to use of a full-sized rifle round and offset magazine made fully-automatic fire extremely hard to manage and could severely damage the lightweight operating mechanism, and practical use was largely restricted to semi-auto. Captured FG 42s were studied after the war by the US military, with one called T44 converted to belt feed using a side-mounted [[MG42]] feed cover and used to gather data which would ultimately be used to design the [[M60 Machine Gun]].

Semi-auto only copies are produced by HZA Kulmbach GmbH, known as BD-42/I (a copy of the early model) and BD-42/II (late model).

* '''FG 42/I''' - It is characterized by a metal butt and a curved pistol grip. 
-Type E - First serial production - 50 units 
-Type F - Second serial production - 2000 units 

* '''FG 42/II''' - It is characterized by a wooden butt and a simple pistol grip. 
-Type G - Third serial production - 5000 units 

In both models, the bipod was standard equipment. In the FG 42 / I it was folded to the front of the weapon, in the FG 42 / II it was folded to the rear.

Upotte!!

''Upotte!!'' is a slice-of-life and action series whose characters are the personifications of firearms. ''Upotte!!'' goes to great lengths to showcase many technical details and historical trivia on the subject, often through the use of cut-in narrated demonstrations to help explain the plot point (or joke) in a given scene. The story begins with a human teacher being transferred to Seishou Academy, entirely oblivious to its purpose as a school for personified firearms. The students are divided by weapon class, with submachine guns being in elementary school, assault rifles and shotguns in middle school, and battle rifles and sniper rifles in high school; most of the faculty are also guns. The main cast features Funco (FNC), Ichiroku (M16A4), Sig (SG 550), and Elle (L85A1), and their many adventures and misadventures.

Series creator and manga author Kitsune Tennouji, perhaps unsurprisingly, has a significant firearms collection (deactivated, being Japan), many of which he uses as reference for the manga (and thus in turn, the anime). His collection is the source of some of the unusual and/or very specific setups seen in the story, such as the G3A3 being fitted with an HK21 rear sight and its particular scope, or the unusual MP5A2 setup, among others. All of the ''Upotte!!'' manga volumes feature a photograph of one of his guns on the inner cover, usually the rifle of the character featured on the cover artwork.

For a collection of behind the scenes photos of Misuzu Togashi (voice of Ichiroku) and Saeko Zougou (voice of Ichiyon) visiting the same deactivated firearm shop frequented by Kitsune Tennouji, see the [[Talk:Upotte!!#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

{{Anime Title}}

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=

==Glock 26==
A [[Glock 26]] is seen during a narrated explanation of red dot sights.

[[File:Upotte Glock red dot sight.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Glock 26 with a red dot sight fitted in place of its rear sight. Also visible is the (simplified) Glock logo on the slide; the full trademarks are legible in detail in the manga. (Ep.4)]]

==Walther PPK==
A [[Walther PPK]] is shown in a narrated explanation of the importance of weight.

[[File:Waltherppk32acp.jpg‎|thumb|none|300px|Walther PPK - .32 ACP]]
[[File:UpottePPK1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A "soldier" holding a PPK on the right, comically showcasing why weight is a very important factor, with English subtitles included for emphasis. (Ep.4)]]

==unidentified pistol==
A poster for what is presumably an in-universe spy film is seen in Ichiroku and Elle's room, featuring a pistol of some sort.

[[File:UpottePoster1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The movie poster behind Sig, who has no trouble with the cold weather while the other three huddle under the ''kotatsu'' (heated table). (Ep.7)]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Fabrique Nationale P90 TR==
An [[FN P90#P90 TR|FN P90 TR]] is seen on a gun rack during a cut-in when Sig bluntly states that she thought the reason Ichiroku was popular was because she's cheap. Interestingly, the P90 is fitted with an adapter to take STANAG magazines, something only compatible with airsoft P90s.

[[File:FN P90 Triple Rail (TR).jpg|thumb|none|400px|Fabrique Nationale P90 TR - 5.7x28mm]]
[[File:UpotteP901.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A P90 TR on the right, fitted with (airsoft) STANAG mag adapter in place of the original magazine. The main focus of the shot is, of course, an M16A1. English subtitles have been retained. (Ep.4)]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A2==
A [[Heckler & Koch MP5#Heckler & Koch MP5A2|Heckler & Koch MP5A2]] is seen in the hands of '''MP''', the personification of said SMG. As with all the characters, the full designation is her "full" name ("MP5A2") but she goes by a shorter, more conversational name in virtually all circumstances. MP is one of G3's many younger sisters, as the MP5 is essentially a G3 scaled down to a submachine gun. Due to this, Sig nicknames her '''Chii3''' ("Small3"). Although most rifles in the show are identical to their manga version, MP's MP5A2 differs quite considerably; her anime form is a typical (SEF lower) MP5 with the export/"tropical" handguard and curved mags, while her manga counterpart is an older MP5 with the original slim handguard and straight mags, and also features an HK 3-lug flash hider. This rather unique setup is an excellent example of material being based on Kitsune Tennouji's personal collection, and a close-up photo included in a manga volume shows the MP5's serial number to be ''C205613'', built in 1976.

[[File:U02 fnhk.jpg|thumb|none|600px|MP serves as the SMG representative during an explanation of how the different classes of firearm are divided at Seishou Academy, alongside Fal and Funco. (Ep.2)]]
[[File:Upotte MP5 fire.jpg|thumb|none|600px|MP fires her MP5A2 at the shooting range during an explanation of submachine guns and their history. (Ep.3)]]
[[File:Upotte comparison.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An FNC and MP5A2 are compared as the narrator explains that submachine guns use pistol cartridges. (Ep.3)]]

[[File:Upotte Vol12.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''Upotte!!'' Volume 12 cover art (without text) for reference, giving a fantastic look at the MP5A2's early-pattern handguard and magazines (two clamped together), as well as the 3-lug flash hider. Mimi appears to be borrowing G3's Titan scope. (Art)]]

==Ingram M-10==
An [[MAC-10|Ingram M-10]] is seen in the background when MP explains why '''M-10''' suddenly stopped talking, due to her having an extremely high rate of fire (1090 rounds per minute is mentioned). M-10, who also goes by '''Ram''' (from "Ingram"), had been explaining why '''Gossan''' ("five-three") is grouped with the SMGs despite using rifle-calibre ammo, as she's the personification of the [[HK53]] (an MP5-sized HK33).

[[File:IngramMAC10.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Ingram M-10 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:Upotte MAC-10.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched shot showcasing much more of the M-10 on-screen at once than is normally visible, as MP gives her explanation; Gossan is the tall girl behind her. Note that the gun's charging handle is erroneously drawn in both positions at once. (Ep.3)]]

==M1928 Thompson==
An [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1928/M1928A1 Thompson|M1928 Thompson]] with a drum magazine is held by its personification, '''Thompson''', on the cover of the first volume of ''Rufuira!!'', a doujinshi by the manga's artist; this manga makes a cameo lying on the floor of the human teacher's room. The human teacher's name is never given during the show, and most characters simply refer to him as '''Genkoku''', essentially "Modern Literature (teacher)".

[[File:M1928.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1928 Thompson - .45 ACP]]
[[File:U07 1928.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ms. Thompson showing off a bit more than just her SMG on the cover of the first ''Rufuira!!'' volume. The collection of canon manga includes the main series (''Upotte!!''), ''Upotte!! Nano'', ''Upotte SISTERS!!'', ''Rufuira!!'', and ''Echiina!!'', as well as a few non-canon doujinshi. (Ep.7)]]
[[File:Rufuira Vol1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''Rufuira!!'' Volume 1 cover art for reference, giving a much more detailed look at (the) Thompson. (Art)]]

==MP 40==
An [[MP 40]] is shown during the overview of the history of submachine guns. The narrator also makes reference to the WWI-era [[MP 18]] during this sequence.

[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP 40 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:Upotte MP40.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An MP 40 over a map of Western Europe, with its stock folded. (Ep.3)]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington Model 870 ==
A [[Remington Model 870]] is used to demonstrate the difference between a traditional pump-action shotgun with a non-detachable tube magazine, and a self-loading shotgun with detachable box magazines, in this case the Saiga-12. A chibi-form Ichiroku is seen firing one at a chibi Elle, who is portraying a rabbit.

[[File:Remington870PoliceStd.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Remington Model 870 Police Magnum (wood furniture) - 12 gauge]]

[[File:Upotte duck hunter.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A hunter shoots fleeing ducks with his Remington 870, somewhere in what appears to be the Pacific Northwest. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte shotgun load.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A SWAT-style team breaches a room, three of them armed with Model 870s fitted with black furniture. The fourth officer is carrying a [[Glock]] pistol and ballistic shield. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:U10 sg.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good profile view of the Remington Model 870. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte 16 SD.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched sequence of a chibi Ichiroku loading and firing an 870 at a chibi Elle. Ichiroku can be seen loading four shells from her eight-shell bandolier, then firing (and missing) all four shells before tossing the gun into the air in frustration. The shotgun is then caught by a chibi Saiga, who transforms it into a Saiga-12K. (Ep.10)]]

==Izhmash Saiga-12K==
As mentioned above, '''Saiga''' is the personification of the [[Saiga-12K]] shotgun. Together with the rest of the Eastern Bloc firearms she attends Akaganekou ("Red Steel High"). Saiga ambushes Ichiroku and Sig during the battle of Atami, and continues to hold a stalemate with copious amounts of buckshot throughout the battle.

[[File:Saiga 12K.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Izhmash Saiga-12K - 12 gauge]]
[[File:UpotteSaiga-12K1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After Saiga makes her entrance by blasting Ichiroku (destroying one of her magazines), Sig returns the favour with a burst of 5.56mm to Saiga's own mag, the remaining shells falling out the bottom. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:U10 s12.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Saiga panics, looking at what's left of her shotgun's magazine. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte fleeing Saiga.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A frustrated Saiga falls back to reload. Ichiroku and Sig then comment on her being a shotgun, with Ichiroku naming Saiga and Sig naming Izhmash. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteSaiga-12K4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A close-up of the Saiga-12K as chibi Saiga transforms it from a Remington 870 during the shotgun explanation. Note the curious "S/F" markings on the selector, not something found on Russian firearms. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte Saiga SD.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chibi Saiga prepares to open up on chibi Ichiroku with what is evidently anti-clothing-shot, concluding the cut-in explanation. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte Saiga load.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Saiga loads a fresh 5-round magazine and gives an enthusiastic smirk. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteSaiga-12K7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blasting away at the stairwell, Saiga continues to keep her enemies' heads down. (Ep.10)]]

=Assault Rifles & Light Machine Guns=
==AK-47==
Two different [[AK-47]] patterns are seen as the narrator (who uses the Russian term ''Avtomat Kalashnikova'') explains the rivalry between the M16 and AK during the Vietnam War, and the reputations both guns earned during that conflict. The first one seen is a final production "Type 3" pattern, the other is an early-pattern "Type 1". It should be noted that the "Type 1/2/3" descriptors are terms created by Western historians to help categorize the three patterns of AK-47, rather than being official Russian terminology.

[[File:TypeIII AK47.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AK-47 (Type 3) - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:AK-47.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AK-47 (Type 1) - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:Upotte AK47.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A standard (Type 3) AK-47 appears when gun shop owner Curly mentions that the RK 95 and Galil are Kalashnikov-derived designs. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:Upotte AK47 USSR flag.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An early-pattern (Type 1) AK-47 over the USSR flag. Its distinctive pistol grip and the early-pattern slab-sided magazine are both visible, though the latter is oddly coloured as if it were a Bakelite mag. (Ep.4)]]

==RPK==
An [[RPK]] light machine gun is used by '''RPK'''. Tall, well-built, and always eager for a good fight, RPK makes for a stellar personification of her firearm. Although generally rather trigger happy, RPK also makes use of her rifle's long barrel and bipod to provide some very impressive long-range precision support at the beginning of the battle of Atami.

[[File:RPK lmg.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RPK - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:UpotteRPK1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|RPK fires her LMG in semi-auto from its bipod. Despite being on a rocking boat and several hundred metres away, she achieves exceptionally precise fire. (Ep.9)]]
[[File:U10 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK lies next to its owner as she and her partner slip out of their wetsuits. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteRPK3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After running into the main quartet, RPK fires at them while making her escape. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte RPK fire.jpg|thumb|none|600px|RPK fires at the glass ceiling of the mall from which Funco had just been sniping. The rifle's bolt can be seen cycling in this shot, and is to the rear here. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte RPK strafe fire.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With three of her unconscious comrades in the background, RPK makes good use of her long 40-round magazine. Perhaps slightly ''too'' much use, though she is heard reloading off-screen at one point. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte RPK buttstock.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After being ordered to reposition and assist Saiga, RPK rips off her mask in frustration and gives Funco a long glare before leaving. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteRPK7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|RPK is briefly seen firing her LMG at Ichiroku, forming a pincer attack. (Ep.10)]]

==AK-74==
The leader of the Akaganekou group that instigates the battle of Atami is '''Nanayon''' ("seven-four"), personification of the [[AK-74]]. Most of the Akaganekou "extras" are also armed with AK-74s, though they should be canonically considered to be using different, similar Eastern Bloc weapons.

[[File:AK-74 NTW 12 92.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AK-74 - 5.45x39mm]]
[[File:Upotte AK-74 rifle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Nanayon fires her AK-74 from the shadows in semi-auto. The fire selector is correctly set to that position, and the bolt can be seen cycling here. (Ep.9)]]
[[File:Upotte AK-74 closeup.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched shot as Nanayon warns civilians about the upcoming battle. Although effectively committing a terrorist attack, she at least has the decency to keep her rifle on safe when out of combat. Like the Saiga, her rifle similarly features "S/A/R" markings instead of cyrillic. (Ep.9)]]
[[File:Upotte RSH squad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A trio of Akaganekou students wearing masks fire their AK-74s at Ichiroku and Sig. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte potential surprise.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Three more take up defensive positions at the mall, however Funco sees this and opts to take them out from the roof instead of engaging head on. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:U10 ak74.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Nanayon opens fire at Funco in the deserted shopping mall. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteAK-746.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Funco clips Nanayon's mask and sends it flying during their duel. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:Upotte AK74 closeup.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Nanayon shoulders her AK-74 as her face off with Funco nears its end. (Ep.10)]]

==AKS-74U==
After Sig's impractical-but-awesome one-handed shooting demonstration, Funco and Sig attempt to persuade Genkoku of its usefulness by claiming it could be used to write messages on the walls of a hypothetical enemy camp some distance away. The "camp" in question is clearly set somewhere in the Middle East, and two of the three fighters there are armed with rifles. Given the setting/theme these are most likely Kalashnikov-pattern rifles, and the one with a visible muzzle appears to best match the [[AKS-74U]].

[[File:AKSU-Krinkov.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AKS-74U - 5.45x39mm]]
[[File:UpotteBaka1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The fighter on the left with his possible AKS-74U while the one at centre also has a rifle, as they gaze upon the crude message drawn with bullets that reads "baka" ("idiot"). (Ep.3)]]

==Bushmaster ACR==
A poster showcasing a disassembled [[Bushmaster ACR#Bushmaster ACR|Bushmaster ACR]] is seen in Curly's shop. The rifle is fitted with a non-standard stock (its proper stock is seen elsewhere on the poster) as well as some other parts on the poster not being for the ACR, such as the GL1 grenade launcher for the F2000. This seems to be explained by the Japanese text describing custom parts and fitment work.

[[File:Bushmasteracrentry.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bushmaster ACR - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:U04acr.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ichiroku walks past the poster on her way out of Curly's shop. (Ep.4)]]

==CETME Modelo L==
A [[CETME Model L|CETME Modelo L]] is used by '''Modelo''', seen in the jungle tournament. One is also featured on the sign for Curly's gun shop, as well as on a rack in the shop itself.

[[File:Cetme Model L.jpg|thumb|none|400px|CETME Modelo L - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:Upotte store sign.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The CETME L on Curly's gun shop sign, lacking a magazine. (Ep.4)]]

[[File:UpotteModeloL3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Modelo moves through the jungle as Funco hides in the tall grass. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:UpotteModeloL4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Hearing a single gunshot behind her, Modelo turns to see a hole through her team's flag, giving a look at her CETME L's rear end. (Ep.4)]]

==CIS SR 88A==
An [[SR 88|SR 88A]], manufactured by CIS (now ST Kinetics), appears in the hands of '''Hachihachi''' ("eight-eight"), and another is seen in Curly's shop.

[[File:SR 88A polymer mag.jpg|thumb|none|400px|CIS SR 88A - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:UpotteSR881.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Hachihachi leads her partner Sar through the tall grass, giving a decent view of the left side of her SR 88A, including its charging handle, bolt release, and fire selector. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:Upotte 88 jungle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Startled by sudden "gunfire" in Sar's direction, Hachihachi turns, giving a good look at the rifle's polymer magazine. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:UpotteSR883.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A close-up of the SR 88A. The large square piece on the receiver is the folding charging handle. (Ep.4)]]

==ST Kinetics SAR 21==
An [[SAR 21|ST Kinetics SAR 21]] is used by '''Sar'''. Like Aug, she wears glasses presumably to represent the SAR 21's built-in optic. One is also seen in Curly's shop.

[[File:Sar21.jpg|thumb|none|400px|ST Kinetics SAR 21 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:Upotte Singapore rifle team.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sar and Hachihachi make their way through the tall grass, rifles at the ready. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:UpotteSAR212.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sar with her SAR 21, as the duo split up. (Ep.4)]]
[[File:UpotteSAR213.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched image of Sar about to step on Ichiroku's trap, a plank of wood with nails against two 5.56mm cartridges, the nails setting them off to make noise. (Ep.4)]]

==Daewoo K2==
Shortly after arriving at Seishou Academy, Headmaster Springfield takes Genkoku on a tour of the school, including its firing range. In addition to the named characters present, five "extras" are seen in the background as well, four of whom have rifles that are just barely seen well enough to be identified. One of them appears to be a [[Daewoo K2]].

[[File:Daewoo-K2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Daewoo K2 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:UpotteK21.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The second-furthest Seishou student fires her rifle, which appears to be a K2, its full stock and distinctive large rear sight assembly visible. (Ep.1)]]

==Enfield EM-2==
An [[Enfield EM-2]] is shown during the explanation of the history of the L85. The narrator opens by mentioning that the British started work on intermediate cartridges and bullpup rifles in the 1940s, while certain relevant cartridges from the era appear on screen, including [[Pedersen Rifle|.276 Pedersen]], [[Carcano Rifle Series|6.5x52mm Carcano]], and [[Arisaka Rifle|6.5x50mmSR Arisaka]]. The EM-2 ultimately ''was'' adopted by the British military... but that decision was almost instantly overturned by a new incoming government, under pressure from the Americans who were insisting on adopting 7.62x51mm as the new NATO standard. As a result, the British ultimately adopted the inch-pattern FAL as the L1.

[[File:EM-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Enfield EM-2 - .280 British]]
[[File:Upotte EM-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An EM-2 atop the Union Jack, complete with its integral 1.0x optic. The cartridge is listed as a strange "7.42x53mm" which is close to .280 British, but not quite. This may have been a typo from attempting to rewrite "7.62x51mm" into "7x43mm", the proper metric designation. (Ep.3)]]

==Enfield XL64E5==
The [[Enfield L85 rifle series#XL64E5 IW|Enfield XL64E5]] is briefly seen near the end of the L85 history cut-in, shown just before the L85 itself is revealed.
[[File:EnfieldXL64.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Enfield XL64E5 with SUSAT - 4.85x49mm]]
[[File:Upotte XL64E5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good close-up of the XL64 prototype, complete with SUSAT optic. (Ep.3)]]

==Enfield L85A1==
'''Elle''', from the "L" in her name, is the personification of the [[Enfield SA80#L85A1|L85A1]]; she is specifically the L85A1 and not the much-improved L85A2, and as such suffers from constant breakages and unreliability. Elle has a generally quiet demeanour, though she always tries her best. Elle is also Ichiroku's roommate.

[[File:L85A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Enfield L85A1 with SUSAT - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:U02 5563.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ichiroku, Elle, and Funco check their weapons while bored in class, freaking out Genkoku who's still not used to daily life at Seishou. (Ep.2)]]

[[File:UpotteL85A17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Elle holds her rifle after its magazine fell out. This time it's not a flaw of the L85, but rather battle damage to its magazine catch suffered in an ambush. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteL85A18.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After baiting her opponent into chasing her, Elle holds her magazine between her legs to keep it in place, in this stitched image. (Ep.10)]]

[[File:Upotte improvising.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Trapped in a stalemate, Elle returns fire. The L85's bolt is mid-cycle here. (Ep.10)]]

==Enfield L85A2==
The [[Enfield SA80#L85A2|L85A2]] appears near the end of the history of the the L85. The narrator specifically mentions that the L85A2's improvements were done by Heckler & Koch.

[[File:L85A2Iron.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Enfield L85A2 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:Upotte L85A2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An L85A2 with its carry handle rather than a SUSAT. The text notes the L85A2's most notable external differences are the charging handle and magazine catch area. (Ep.3)]]

==Colt Canada L119A1==
A [[Diemaco C8|Colt Canada L119A1]] is seen in the hands of a Special Air Service soldier during an overview of the history of the L85 and its various problems, noting that the SAS opted to adopt an M16-based rifle instead. The Canadian C8 is essentially a development of the Colt Model 653, with the C8A1 introducing a flattop upper, and the later C8SFW featuring a slightly longer heavy barrel. The C8SFW was adopted by the British as the L119A1, and the one seen here is equipped with an EOTech holographic sight and magnifier.

(Ep.3)]]

==FARA 83==
The [[FARA 83]] makes its media debut in the hands of '''Fara''', seen during the jungle tournament. The FARA 83 notably ''doesn't'' appear in Curly's shop, the position on the gun rack it was likely intended to occupy instead featuring a custom M16.

==Fabrique Nationale FNC==
'''Funco''' is the personification of the [[FN FNC]], and main protagonist of the series. Meeting Genkoku by chance during a festival, through an honest accident he discovers that she wears a thong, a trait shared by all personifications of rifles with (folding) skeleton stocks. Forgetting her actual name, he lets "girl with the thong" slip out a few times, usually (comedically) ending up in the hospital as a result. Although the personified gun characters can cause pain and injuries, in this universe the adage ''"guns don't kill people, people do"'' exists rather literally, as they're physically incapable of actually killing a human (or each other) unless wielded by a human. Funco's FNC notably lacks a bayonet lug, a feature usually associated with the semi-auto civilian model, though she is otherwise in line with the standard original-production military pattern. That the FNC was directly responsible for the Belgian SS109 cartridge being adopted as 5.56mm NATO is a fact noted in the show. A replica (presumably airsoft) FNC appears during the climactic battle, serving as a distraction.

The FNC's predecessor and Funco's direct older sister, the [[FN CAL|CAL]], is also mentioned, though neither she nor her rifle are actually seen; '''Cal''' is Sig's roommate.

==GIAT FA-MAS G1==
A [[FAMAS#FAMAS G1|FA-MAS G1]] is seen alongside an AUG during the history of the L85, listing both as examples of bullpup rifle designs adopted before the L85. The show uses the less common but more technically correct spelling of "FA-MAS", with the dash separating "''Fusil d’Assaut''" from "''Manufacture d’Armes de Saint-Étienne''"; this is how the rifle's markings are actually written. Another FA-MAS is seen in the hands of a Seishou student at the firing range, though she is not the canonical ''Upotte!!'' FA-MAS who appears in the manga after the events of the anime. The canon '''Famas''' has long reddish-blond "drill"-style hair, does not attend Seishou, and is the F1 variant.

[[File:Upotte dual rifles.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A FA-MAS G1 next to an AUG A1. (Ep.3)]]

==Heckler & Koch HK33E==
A [[Heckler & Koch HK33|Heckler & Koch HK33E]] is used by '''HK33E''', who unlike basically everyone else goes by her full designation rather than a nickname. Being the oft-forgotten middle child between the G3 and MP5, HK33E has a fairly strong inferiority complex, which likely contributes to her dislike of nicknames. Despite this, or rather ''because'' of this, Sig nicknames her '''Chuu3''' ("Mid3") much to her annoyance. Ichihachi later nicknames her '''Mimi''', an alternate reading of the two threes in her designation; she is less averse to this name, and the two eventually become friends. HK33E's manga incarnation features an integral bipod, seen in the MP5 section above, which is not present in the anime.

==Heckler & Koch G36V==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36#Heckler & Koch G36|Heckler & Koch G36V]], identifiable by its lack of dual optics, is seen in Curly's shop.

[[File:G36.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch G36V - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:UpotteG361.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A G36V in the display case behind Sako. (Ep.4)]]

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
One of the Seishou students at the range has what appears to be a [[Heckler & Koch HK416]]. The rifle of the student between HK416 and K2, who is entirely hidden behind Genkoku, has its barrel just ''barely'' visible above the HK416's buffer tube, and it can be seen recoiling when firing along with a puff of muzzle flash. That rifle cannot possibly be identified beyond "has a reasonably long, fairly featureless barrel", but it ''is'' present.

[[File:Hk416-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch HK416 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:UpotteHK4161.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The student with her head partially obscured by Genkoku fires her HK416; its distinctive rail system and diopter sights match, as do the brass deflector and forward assist. Also (barely) visible is a couple rows of pixels of the barrel of the centre student's rifle, above the HK416's stock. (Ep.1)]]

==Howa AR-18==
A [[ArmaLite AR-18|Howa AR-18]] is the rifle of '''Ichihachi''' ("one-eight"), Ichiroku's cousin and Funco's roommate. Originally developed by ArmaLite, the AR-18 was also produced under licence by Howa in Japan and Sterling in England. Interestingly, Ichihachi being "born" in Japan makes her the closest thing to a Japanese character in the show, though she's still considered to be American.

Behind the scenes photos of Ichihachi's actress Chiharu Kitaoka visiting a military surplus store with Galil's Mariko Honda can be found on the [[Talk:Upotte!!#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

==Howa Type 89-F==
A [[Howa Type 89|Howa Type 89-F]] is seen on a rack when Sig claims that Ichiroku is cheap. What appears to be another Type 89-F is seen on a film poster in Funco and Ichihachi's room, which is very fitting as the Type 89 is a direct development of the AR-18, designed by Howa from their experience producing AR-18s.

==IMI Galil AR==
Personification of the [[Galil#Galil AR|IMI Galil AR]], '''Galil''' serves as Sako's right hand until after the tournament, where it's revealed that they could not possibly be more different in personality. Laid back and energetic, Galil becomes fast friends with Ichihachi, and later Mimi. Despite lacking the bipod (and therefore bottle opener) of the otherwise nearly identical [[Galil#Galil ARM|Galil ARM]] variant she is seen attempting to open a bottle with her teeth, prompting a worried Ichihachi to give her a proper bottle opener instead, saying that doing that will damage her feed lips. This is a reference to a bottle opener specifically being designed into the Galil ARM, as Israeli soldiers had a notorious habit of damaging the feed lips on their [[Uzi]] magazines.

Behind the scenes photos of Galil's actress Mariko Honda dressed up with an airsoft Galil ARM are over on the [[Talk:Upotte!!#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

==M16==
The original-pattern [[M16 rifle series#M16|M16]] is seen during the history of the L85. The narrator mentions that after the Americans pressured NATO into adopting 7.62x51mm as the new standard, putting an end to many domestic projects like the British EM-2, the narrator then immediately follows up by noting that not too long after this the Americans turned around and adopted an intermediate cartridge anyway, with the M16. An M16 is also seen during the summary of its involvement in the Vietnam War, featuring a detailed blueprint-style drawing in the background.

[[File:M16-SP1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M16 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:Upotte M16A1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An M16 over the Stars and Stripes, ushering in a new era of service rifle. (Ep.3)]]

==M16A1==
The [[M16 rifle series#M16A1|M16A1]] makes several appearances during technical and historical cut-ins, including during an explanation of three-round burst mode, the overview of its role in the Vietnam War, and when Ichiroku has a brief flashback to that time in her life.

==M16A2==
An [[M16 rifle series#M16A2|M16A2]] is seen in during a summary of the M16's history, this time narrated by Ichihachi rather than the usual narrator.

[[File:M16A2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M16A2 - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:Upotte evolution.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Evolution of the M16 rifle, with an M16A2 at centre. The original-pattern M16 appears to have an M16A1 lower, with fencing. (Ep.4)]]

==M16A3==
An M16A3, the rare full-auto version of the A2, is also seen in the lineup of M16 variants. This marks one of exceptionally few times a "true" M16A3 appears in media, as opposed to the auto-converted A2s seen in most live action productions.

[[File:Upotte M16s.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M16 family, this time with English subtitles left on for the descriptions of each variant. The M16A4 here is fitted with a Knight's Armament M5 rail system, standard for US military M16A4s. (Ep.4)]]

==M16A4==
At the end of this list of M16 variants is the [[M16 rifle series#M16A4|M16A4]], personified by '''Ichiroku''' ("one-six"). With high enthusiasm tempered by low stamina (being restricted to burst mode), Ichiroku is tomboyish and a natural leader. Due to the M16's fame and popularity, she also does modelling work. During the jungle tournament Ichiroku mistakenly eats an especially spicy chicken nugget that Funco accidentally made with chili pepper instead of paprika, causing her stomach to act up. This serves as a representation of the bad gunpowder infamously used in the M16 in Vietnam, which was largely responsible (along with other factors) for its notoriously bad reliability. As a result, Ichiroku's rifle quickly fouls up during the match, forcing her to operate the forward assist after every shot. A narrated cut-in explaining the rifle's direct impingement system refers to it as the "Ljungman system", referencing the Swedish [[Automatgevär m/42|ag m/42]], an early example of a rifle using this system.

Behind the scenes photos of Ichiroku's actress Misuzu Togashi wielding a variety of (deactivated) firearms are listed on the [[Talk:Upotte!!#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

She first separates the upper and lower receivers, slides out the bolt carrier, then removes the charging handle. After this she removes the bolt from the bolt carrier, then drops out the firing pin. That last step is seen in this screenshot, firing pin falling into her hand. (Ep.5)]]
[[File:Upotte M16A4 jam.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ichiroku's rifle suffers a failure to feed due to severe fouling. Also seen here is a Trijicon ACOG fitted with a Docter red dot and killflash, which Ichiroku uses during the tournament. A notable goof is the first-person view through the scope depicts it as a simple red dot sight. This was most likely a miscommunication between animators/writers, as Ichiroku was indeed looking at red dot sights before the tournament. (Ep.5)]]
[[File:UpotteM16A46.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ichiroku works the M16A4's forward assist, complaining that she's not supposed to be a bolt action. She later uses the rifle one-handed while rapidly working the forward assist with the other, a technique Professor Garand compares to fanning a revolver. (Ep.5)]]

Ichiroku's rifle is the only firearm seen this episode, an epilogue mostly featuring the main quartet going on a camping trip and relaxing in an outdoor hotspring. (Ep.11)]]

==Colt Delta HBAR==
The customized M16 from the ''Golgo 13'' manga, used by its titular character makes a cameo appearance in Curly's shop. The rifle is based on the [[M16 rifle series#Colt Sporter Rifle Delta HBAR|Colt Delta HBAR]] setup (most notably the cheek riser), though features a select-fire A2 lower. At some point in the ''Golgo 13'' story its A2 upper was replaced with a flattop A4 upper, and it was fitted with what appears to be an HK claw mount fitted to a picatinny rail adapter, essentially making it an overly-complex riser for the large scope mounted atop; it also features a cut-down A4 carry handle as a rear ironsight. Airsoft manufacturer Tokyo Marui made a limited production run replica of this custom M16, which is likely what was used as reference material.

==Colt Model 653==
A [[M16 rifle series#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733|Colt Model 653]] with a 16-inch barrel is seen during the history of the M16, shown as an example of one of the M16's many derivatives.

==Type 86S==
A full-auto-capable [[Type 86S]] appears in the hands of its personification, a member of the Akaganekou faction. She is credited as '''86式自动步枪''' ('''86 shì zìdòng bùqiāng''' / '''Type 86 automatic rifle''') in both the anime and manga, the rifle's full Chinese designation but with the "S" omitted. The "S" suffix on Norinco (and related Chinese manufacturers') designations denotes semi-auto-only rifles (for example the semi-auto [[Type 56 assault rifle#Type 84S|Type 84S]] and its full-auto sibling, the Type 84), and as such the rifle's full-auto capability paired with the consistent, deliberate omission of the "S" implies that within the ''Upotte!!'' universe a full-auto variant of the Type 86S was developed, naturally named Type 86. She isn't known to have a more "conversational" name, but in the interest of simplicity and clarity this page will refer to her as '''86'''; whether this is pronounced in Chinese, Japanese, or English is left up to the reader.

[[File:Type 86S rifle kit.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Type 86S with sling and bayonet - 7.62x39mm]]

[[File:UpotteType866.jpg|thumb|none|600px|86 lies unconscious next to her rifle, outplayed by Elle. This is a good example of how the characters aren't truly human (a fact brought up in dialogue several times), with 86 taking four bullets to the chest and merely being knocked out. Another example from the same episode is an overheating Funco pouring water onto herself to cool off... with the water instantly boiling and vaporizing on contact with her skin. (Ep.10)]]
[[File:UpotteType867.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Recovered, 86 stands with the rest of Nanayon's group, including Saiga and RPK. (Ep.10)]]

==QBZ-97==
A [[QBZ-95#QBZ-97|QBZ-97]], the 5.56mm export variant of the QBZ-95, is used by a Seishou student at the firing range. This is consistent with other Eastern rifles' NATO export variants attending the Western-themed Seishou, such as Sako.

The exceptionally rare 5.56mm export variant of the [[Valmet Assault Rifle Series#M95|Sako RK 95 TP]] is personified by '''Sako'''. Domineering and sadistic, newly-transferred Sako attempts to bully her way through the jungle war games tournament with the apparent goal of taking over Seishou Academy.

[[File:RK 95 TP 556mm.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sako RK 95 TP - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

The latter two faced Sako and Galil in the quarter-finals, though their rifles are never seen on-screen. (Ep.5)]]

==SIG SG 550==
'''Sig''' is the personification of the [[SIG SG 550#SIG SG 550|SIG SG 550]]. Smart yet somewhat of an airhead, Sig is a superb marksman, able to hold her own against the battle rifle characters at longer ranges. She is noted to use the Swiss GP 90 cartridge, a domestic version of 5.56mm NATO. While safely interchangeable with standard 5.56mm (Belgian SS109), the GP 90 cartridge features a notably heavier bullet for better performance at longer ranges, and as such is intended to be used with a different rifling twist rate. The SG 550 comes in two externally identical variants, the (domestic) SG 550-1 with a 1:10 twist rate for the GP 90 cartridge, and the (export) SG 550-2 with a 1:7 twist rate for standard 5.56mm. As such, Sig is specifically the SG 550-1 variant. Her rifle is often seen equipped with its proprietary Hensoldt ZF 6×42 BL scope.

==SIG SG 552==
A [[SIG SG 552]] is briefly seen when Ichihachi notes that Sig is frequently featured in movies, prompting Sig to complain that she's referencing the wrong model.

==Steyr AUG A1==
The [[Steyr AUG#Steyr AUG A1|Steyr AUG A1]] is personified by '''Aug'''. She often switches between two different barrel lengths, represented by her natural long hair (508mm standard barrel) or a short-haired wig (350mm compact barrel), with the former bringing out her more aggressive and enthusiastic "true" personality, while the wig suppress this and makes her notably quiet and shy. She is also able to equip the extended 621mm [[Steyr AUG#Steyr AUG HBAR|AUG HBAR]] barrel, at which point her personality is said to become incredibly overbearing. Tei and the narrator use the English loanword "heavy barrel" (not used for her standard/long barrel) and the narrator further makes reference to this allowing the AUG to become a light machine gun, however the visual mistakenly depicts the AUG with its standard/long barrel instead of the HBAR's longer barrel and integrated bipod. Aug also wears glasses, which (as with Sar) likely represent the rifle's built-in optic. An AUG A1 is also seen in Curly's shop.

[[File:Upotte AUG reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aug pulls the charging handle after inserting a fresh mag. The AUG A1's bolt does lock open when empty, however as the rifle lacks a bolt release catch and the charging handle is non-reciprocating, it must be fully pulled to the rear to release the bolt. (Ep.5)]]

[[File:U08 aug.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AUG's barrel gleams after Genkoku pulls off Aug's wig, unleashing her natural persona. (Ep.8)]]

==T91==
The [[T65 rifle series#T91 Carbine|T91]] appears in the hands of '''Tei''', nicknamed "fountain head" by Ichiroku due to her six ponytails; her hairstyle may be a reference to the logo of the 205th Arsenal, the rifle's manufacturer. The T91's collapsible stock is drawn attention to in parallel with the AUG's interchangeable barrels, highlighting the two characters' adaptability. Having an adjustable-length stock also comes with the side effect of Tei having adjustable-length panties (tied on the sides like a bikini bottom). Just before her rifle starts jamming Ichiroku manages to hit the T91's stock, damaging it and knocking it off the rifle, which also causes Tei to lose her panties in the process. A T91 is present in Curly's shop as well.

(Ep.5)]]

==wz. 88 Tantal==
A [[wz. 88 Tantal#wz. 88 Tantal|wz. 88 Tantal]], the Polish equivalent to (but not copy of) the AK-74, is wielded by an Akaganekou student during the shootout in Atami. This rifle serves as a stellar example of the sort of "similar but different" rifles that the rest of the Akaganekou "extras" should canonically be wielding, instead of standard AK-74s. The character's name is never given, but she ''presumably'' goes by '''Tantal'''.

=Battle Rifles & Rifles=
==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
'''G3''' is the physical embodiment of the [[Heckler & Koch G3A3]], and unsurprisingly has numerous sisters (G3-based roller-delayed rifles) and cousins (other HK rifles). The rest of the HK family within ''Upotte!!'' (at this point) consists of HK33E, '''[[G41]]''', and '''[[G36]]''' in middle school, HK53, MP5A2, '''[[MP5SD]]''', '''[[MP5K]]''', '''[[UMP]]''', and '''[[MP7|MP7A1]]''' in elementary school, and the elusive '''HK32''' (an HK33 in 7.62x39mm) who attends Akaganekou due to her cartridge. All except G36 and HK32 live together in the same apartment, with (alongside G3 and MP) UMP, MP5K, and MP7A1 being seen and the remaining four being heard off-screen in the epilogue episode. G3 has modified her rifle by replacing the standard diopter rear sight with the aperture rear sight from the [[HK21]], claiming she wants to be able to hit targets out to 1000m away, though when pressed she admits her eyesight isn't actually good enough to make use of this. As such, when in longer range engagements she equips a Tasco Titan 3-12×52 scope fitted to an HK claw mount; its markings are legible in the manga.

==L1A1==
Funco's elder sister '''Fal''' is the British [[L1A1]], often listed as "FAL L1A1" in the anime/manga, likely for clarity. Beautiful, smart, and an excellent tactician, Fal embodies all the traits of an admirable older sister. In the show as it aired Fal is at one point seen firing a burst of full-auto, something the semi-auto-only L1A1 is not capable of. This was corrected to three rapid shots in semi-auto for the BD release.

==C1A1==
A C1A1 is shown during the history of the L85. The Japanese text simply reads "early version FAL" and gives a cartridge listing of [[Sturmgewehr 44|7.92x33mm Kurz]], which seems to be mixing up two FAL variants that independently are both very relevant to the topic. Canada was the first country to adopt the FAL, with the Canadians being responsible for converting its specifications from metric to imperial, thus creating the "inch-pattern" FAL. The British L1A1 (''Upotte!!'''s Fal) and Australian L1A1 were both derived from the Canadian C1A1. The C1 has several features quite distinct from other FAL variants (including its Commonwealth siblings), most notably an open-topped receiver with a stripper clip guide as well as a different rear sight.

The mention of 7.92x33mm Kurz is a reference to the FN Universal Carbine, the very first prototype of what would become the [[FAL]]. Developed almost immediately after WWII, the Universal Carbine would quickly evolve into the FN Automatic Carbine in .280 British, before the American insistence on adopting 7.62x51mm as the new NATO standard forced FN to adapt their rifle for that cartridge.

[[File:C1a1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|C1A1 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M1 Garand==
A pair of crossed [[M1 Garand]] rifles make up part of Seishou Academy's emblem, and a large wooden sign depicting an M1 Garand sits on the entrance gate for the school's annual festival. The rifle is personified by Professor '''Garand''', one of the few male gun characters in ''Upotte!!''. Professor Garand has the appearance and persona of a WWII-era USMC drill instructor and serves as the teacher for many firearm and outdoor-related activities, such as supervising the firing range and the jungle tournament. Garand's (Japanese) actor also provides the voice for the show's narrator.

The Seishou Academy faculty members seen within the anime are [[M1903 Springfield|Headmaster '''Springfield''']], Professor Garand, [[FG 42|Ms '''Fujiko''']], Ms Thompson, Ms '''SK''' (SIG SK 46), and [[MAS-49|Ms '''Mire''']] (Japanese phonetic pronounciation of "Mle", the standard French short form of ''Modèle'').

==M14==
'''Ichiyon''' ("one-four"), the personification of the [[M14]], is Ichiroku's adoptive elder sister. Described as seeming elegant and refined so long as she doesn't open her mouth, Ichiyon is notorious for terrible puns; this has earned her the nickname '''G Bijin''' ("G Beauty/Cutie"). Ichiyon is convinced the "G" stands for something like "Great" or "Gorgeous", but it's actually short for "Gakkari" ("Disappointed/Dejected"), with Gakkari Bijin usually translated as "God, Not Again Cutie". With the M14's full-power 7.62mm NATO rounds and fairly high rate of fire making the rifle notoriously difficult to control, Ichiyon's marksmanship is truly abysmal in full-auto; Ichiroku claims it to be as bad as a ten ''metre'' spread. When in need of a long range optic Ichiyon equips her rifle with a Leatherwood ART 3-9×40 scope, the same optic used on the M14's sniper rifle counterpart, the [[M21]]. As the M21 is merely a handpicked-for-accuracy M14 fitted with an ART scope and locked to semi-auto, her M14 is virtually indistinguishable from an M21 when equipped with the scope, though is not one due to retaining full-auto functionality.

Behind the scenes photos of Ichiyon's actress Saeko Zougou handling a number of (deactivated) firearms are featured on the [[Talk:Upotte!!#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

==Remington Model 700==
A (deliberately) crude drawing of what appears to be a [[Remington Model 700]] with a McMillan Hunter stock appears on a poster in Seishou Academy. Many posters like this are seen around the school, some with reminders for students to do things like keep their chamber clear and such. Most others feature drawings of firearms or magazines otherwise seen in the show, but this rifle is unique to the poster.

==SKS==
An [[SKS]] appears during the explanation of the origin of assault rifles. The narrator mentions that the Soviets had successfully adopted an intermediate cartridge (7.62x39mm) very shortly after WWII, then immediately follows up by talking about the Americans pressuring NATO into adopting the full-power 7.62x51mm cartridge.

=Vehicle-Mounted Weapons=
==M60D==
Several UH-1 Iroquois helicopters, as well as a single CH-47 Chinook are seen throughout the summary of the Vietnam War, each armed with a pair of [[M60D]] machine guns, the variant of the M60 fitted with spade grips for use in helicopters. The Iroquois is probably best known by its unofficial nickname, "Huey", a bastardized form of its original "HU-1" designation.

==M134 Minigun==
A pair of AH-1 Cobra attack helicopters are seen escorting a large formation of transport helis over Vietnam. AH-1s of this era were equipped with a twin-gun nose turret that could fit a pair of [[M134 Minigun]]s, a pair of M129 grenade launchers, or one of each.

==M61 Vulcan==
The [[M61 Vulcan]] is the gun armament of F-22 Raptors seen at the Seishou festival, while a poster for the in-universe film ''Political Decision'' in Funco and Ichihachi's room features an F-14 Tomcat, also armed with an M61. More specifically, the F-22 is armed with the M61A2, a lightened variant developed specifically for the Raptor, also used by the F/A-18 Super Hornet; the lightening process included thinner barrels, which due to their lower mass resulted in a slightly higher rate of fire. The F-14 uses the regular M61A1 variant. The poster is a reference to the film ''[[Executive Decision]]'', which notably features the FNC (specifically the shorter barrel FNC Para), likely a contributing factor to Funco having it in her room. The poster itself is a rather faithful parody, with the F-117 swapped for an F-14 (the Tomcat also appears in the film), orange sky, part of the hangar (swapped sides), title with the lead actor's name above, description of the film above those, and credits at the bottom.

==MG 15==
A grainy, black-and-white film-style shot of Ju 88 bombers over London is shown during the history of British assault rifles when the narrator mentions Britain's lack of resources after World War II. Early-war Ju 88s were armed with three [[MG 15]] machine guns, one forward-firing next to the pilot, one in the rear of the cockpit, and the other in a ventral position.

[[File:MG15.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 15 - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

The large peninsula known as "The Island" and its ship docks can be seen at upper-right, while the Tower Bridge is visible at top-left, just forward of the Ju 88's port wing. (Ep.3)]]

==Sumitomo Type 74==
A [[Sumitomo Type 74]] serves as the coaxial machine gun in the Type 74 tank present at the school festival. The Type 74 MBT is equipped with a domestically-produced version of the British 105mm L7A1 as its main cannon.

[[File:Sumitomo Type 74 MG display.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sumitomo Type 74 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:U08 Type74MBT.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ichiyon pokes her head out of the commander's hatch, as her driver attempts to break down the festival gate. The small hole between the L7 cannon and the large square IR lamp is the port for the Type 74 machine gun, while the opposite port is for the gunner's optic. (Ep.8)]]

==Sumitomo M2==
Atop the Type 74 tank is a Sumitomo M2, the Japanese license-produced [[M2HB]]. An American-production M2HB is seen as the primary armament of an M1127, the reconnaissance vehicle variant of the Stryker family of APCs, used to demonstrate optical camouflage technology during the festival.

[[File:BrowningM2HB.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M2HB - .50 BMG]]

[[File:Upotte M1126 Stryker ICV.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Seishou student prepares to demonstrate the Stryker's (fictitious) optical camo. This student and her friend who puts a VR headset on Genkoku afterwards aren't credited with specific names, so it's unclear which rifles they represent. (Ep.8)]]

=Launchers & Grenades=
==Fabrique Nationale GL1==
An [[FN GL1]] grenade launcher is seen on the ACR poster in Curly's shop, although it's actually for the [[FN F2000|F2000]].

[[File:FNGL1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Fabrique Nationale GL1 - 40x46mm]]
[[File:Upotte gun rack c.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A GL1 on the poster. This shot gives a better angle than the one in the ACR section, though with some of the ACR parts obscured by Funco. (Ep.4)]]

==RPG-7==
An [[RPG-7]] is seen alongside a couple other launchers in Curly's mobile shop set up for the school festival. Among the many military-related things present at Curly's tent is an AN/PSQ-20 night vision goggle, which Ichiroku becomes enthralled with and attempts to spend the class's festival budget to buy for herself. Ichiroku repeatedly refers to it by name, and notes it's something that only SOCOM and the 10th Mountain Division have access to, which was true at the time the show is set (it explicitly takes place in 2012/2013).

[[Image:Rpg-7-1-.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]
[[File:U08 rpg.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An RPG-7 and two more traditional tube-shaped launchers sit in a box at Curly's tent. This shot is another to receive improvements for the BD release. (Ep.8)]]

==Mk 2 hand grenade==
A pineapple pie made to look like a [[Mk 2 hand grenade]] is given to Genkoku during the festival, naturally due to the Mk 2's nickname of "pineapple grenade".

[[Image:MK2 grenade DoD.jpg|thumb|none|200px|Mk 2 hand grenade]]

[[File:Upotte Mk2 desert.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The pineapple pie after "exploding". This shot was completely redrawn for the BD release. (Ep.8)]]

=Curly's Shop=
In addition to the many other rifles identified elsewhere on the page, there is a rack of poorly-seen rifles in Curly's shop, near the counter.

[[File:Upotte Mk2 lit fuse.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A rack of six rifles to the right, some with a reasonable amount of detail. (Ep.4)]]

=Miscellaneous=
==cork air gun==
A cork-firing air gun, a staple of Japanese festivals, is seen at a stall in the town festival early in the first episode. Funco, naturally good with guns as she is one herself, uses one to win a prize for a couple of kids, after which the stall owner disqualifies her on grounds of being a Seishou Academy student. Genkoku, passing by, then attempts to use the gun as well. The air gun (technically not a rifle as it lacks rifling) is single-shot, muzzle-loaded, and fires from an open bolt. The show skips the muzzle loading part in the interest of time and comedy, but the cocking handle is correctly depicted throughout.

[[Image:Cork Air Gun Japan.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Japanese-made air gun - cork projectile 
(This appears to be the exact model featured in ''Upotte!!'')]]
[[File:Upotteairgun1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A young boy waves around one of the air guns as the stall owner puts a "Mintendo 3BS" back on the shelf. To its left is a "Wee" console, and to its right a water gun that appears to have the carry handle and triangular handguard of an early-pattern M16. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:Upotteairgun2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Funco aims the air gun, showing its rear sight assembly. The bolt is correctly locked to the rear. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:Upotteairgun3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Genkoku fires the air gun, leaving Funco feeling rather self-conscious seeing him handle a gun. The bolt is animated in this sequence, having now dropped forward. (Ep.1)]]

==Fabrique Nationale SCAR-H magazines==
Magazines for the [[SCAR-H]] are seen during the lengthy summary of the differences between assault rifles and battle rifles, specifically when noting that smaller, lighter intermediate rounds allow for more total ammo to be carried. The SCAR-H magazines sit next to a stack of FN-pattern 5.56mm STANAG mags, which were originally developed for the FNC and later continued to be used for the F2000 and [[SCAR-L]]. Compared to typical American GI-pattern STANAG mags, FN STANAG mags are built from steel (rather than aluminum), have a darker finish, and their most obvious visual difference is that two of the three reinforcing grooves do not extend all the way through the bottom of the mag, ending just above the floorplate.

[[File:UpotteSCAR-H1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Three FNC/F2000/SCAR-L magazines on the left, with two SCAR-H magazines on the right. (Ep.2)]]

==Seishou Academy student name list==
A very long list of gun/character names is seen when the students get the results of their midterms. A few of the names are repeated, but there's still an incredibly high number of unique names listed, many being relatively obscure and/or rarely seen in media. Some of the names are those of Akaganekou students.

[[File:Upotte gun rack b.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Almost the entire list, with the highest-to-lowest scoring students listed right-to-left; the highest possible score appears to be "500". Sig states that she got third place, which is reflected here. (Ep.2)]]
[[File:U02 list.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The left end of the list, with the left-most thirteen names being the ones not visible in the previous shot. Including duplicates, there are a total of one hundred twenty-six names listed. (Ep.2)]]

Strike Witches: Road to Berlin

2023-10-07T19:48:29Z

Alex T Snow:

[[Image:Strike-Witches-RtB.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Strike Witches: Road to Berlin'' (2020)]]

Two months into her medical studies at the University of Lausanne in Helvetia, Yoshika Miyafuji receives a visit from Mio Sakamoto and Keisuke Hijikata in early November, 1945, though their reunion is quickly interrupted by news of a potential Neuroi attack on a Venezian battleship captained by the father of one of Yoshika's local friends. Flying from the Alps to the coast, Yoshika, and later the rest of the Strike Witches attempt to stop a Neuroi from crashing a massive iceberg into the port of Antwerpen in Belgica, however their efforts fail and the port facilities are destroyed.

With the loss of the deepwater port at Antwerpen, humanity's plans for a push on occupied Karlsland, with the goal of retaking Berlin, must be put on hold for several months until the port can be rebuilt. In the meantime, the 501st JFW is reassembled and stationed in Den Helder, Nederland. With Mio having aged out of her magic several months prior, the Imperial Fuso Navy now officially assigns a replacement, one Shizuka Hattori. With other members not far off aging out themselves, the Strike Witches must prepare for the upcoming operation to liberate Berlin, deep in the heart of Neuroi-occupied territory.

''Strike Witches: Road to Berlin'' is a follow-up to ''[[Strike Witches: The Movie]]''; it is the first story to be set after the events of ''The Movie'' since that film released in 2012.

For more in-depth explanations of the lore and setting of the ''World Witches'' universe, [[Strike Witches|see the first season's page.]]

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Browning M.25==
The [[FN_Model_1910/1922#FN_Model_1922|Browning M.25]] (the Dutch military designation for the FN Model 1922, in .380 ACP) is seen in the holsters of two officers at the Schelde Fort, a coastal artillery installation at the mouth of the river of the same name. The pistols themselves are not seen outside their holsters, however this was the standard sidearm of the Dutch military at the time.

[[Image:FN Model 1922.jpg|thumb|none|300px|FN Model 1922 - .32 ACP]]
[[Image:SWrtbM251.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The base commander and his subordinate can both be seen with holsters, while the three other soldiers in the room are unarmed. (Ep.2)]]
[[Image:SWrtbM252.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A closer shot of the two officers as the subordinate attempts to call for reinforcements, showing more detail of their uniforms, including the holsters for their M.25s. (Ep.2)]]

==Colt M1873==
General Gerald S. Patton carries a custom [[Single Action Army]] revolver very similar to the one carried by the real George S. Patton. Patton's revolver is an engraved 4.75" Civilian model with ivory grips, though the ''World Witches'' depiction differs in being gold-plated rather than nickel. Charlotte Yeager also carries an M1873 Civilian (blued with wood grips) in a left-handed shoulder holster (presumably for easier access if her BAR is still in her right hand) which she lends to Gertrud Barkhorn as a lightweight backup weapon for a sortie against a particularly dangerous Neuroi.

For a photo of Gertrud's actress Mie Sonozaki posing with a Single Action Army, see the [[Talk:Strike Witches: Road to Berlin#Behind The Scenes|Talk Page]].

[[Image:SWrtb18731.jpg|600px|thumb|none|General Patton holds his Colt after firing three rounds into a map table in the allied headquarters in Amsterdam, frustrated at having to delay Operation Southwind due to losing the port at Antwerpen. (Ep.3)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18732.jpg|600px|thumb|none|With that apparently not being enough to vent his frustration, Patton then slams his fist down on the table, showing a surprisingly detailed shot of the bottom of the revolver. The Japanese subtitles listing his name and position are unfortunately not removable. (Ep.3)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18733.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A wider shot immediately afterwards, showing his SAA is indeed the Civilian model. To the right of Patton is General Oscar Bradley, Mio Sakamoto, and Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke. At the end of the scene Patton fires the remaining three rounds into the table again. (Ep.3)]]

[[Image:SWrtb18735.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Thumbing back the hammer as she draws it, Gertrud fires the pistol and then recocks it. The cylinder can be seen mid-rotation here, and is correctly rotating clockwise (shooter's perspective) with the fired cylinder being the one not visible, at the one o'clock position. (Ep.6)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18736.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Gertrud fires her second shot and then recocks the M1873 again. Note the loaded cylinders, as there are four unfired rounds remaining. (Ep.6)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18737.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Switching angles, Trude fires the third shot and then recocks the SAA. (Ep.6)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18738.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The fourth shot is fired, after which she again cocks the hammer before a cut to a close-up of the Neuroi's core being exposed by an off-screen fifth shot. (Ep.6)]]
[[Image:SWrtb18739.jpg|600px|thumb|none|''"You messed with the wrong witch."'' Gertrud finishes off the Neuroi with her sixth and final shot, the Colt's cylinders now empty. (Ep.6)]]

=Submachine Guns=
==MP 40==
[[MP40|MP 40]] submachine guns are carried by Karlsland troops and tank crews; one of them is taken by Yoshika Miyafuji and used in a last stand atop the Zoo Tower in Berlin. An MP 40 magazine is also seen among other clutter in Erica Hartmann's room.

=Rifles=
==Mosin Mod. 1891/30==
An Orussian soldier is briefly seen with a [[Mosin Nagant Rifle#Mosin Nagant Rifle|Mod. 1891/30]] in Berlin. Though often colloquially called "Mosin-Nagant" in the West, this is a misnomer created by legal disputes over the rifle's design, and how those disputes were reported on in Western/English sources of the time period.

==Boys Mk I*==
Lynette Bishop continues to use a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] anti-tank rifle in her role as the 501st's designated marksman. She notably makes use of her Boys to put a stop to the shenanigans caused by an ancient clay fertility idol roaming around the Strike Witches' base.

[[Image:SWrtbBoys10.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A victorious Lynette stands with her Boys rifle as the sun rises. Similar to Perrine in ''[[Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow|OVA]]'' and Yoshika in ''The Movie'', this is a rare example of a witch using a rifle on the ground. (Ep.7)]]

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
In addition to continuing to be the standard weapon of Pierrette-Henriette Clostermann, a [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] is also used by Yoshika Miyafuji while defending the Venezian battleship ''Doge''. It is odd that a Venezian ship would have Britannian weapons onboard, though this is likely a matter of production simplicity; with Francesca Lucchini not using Romagnan/Venezian/Italian weapons, there wouldn't be reference material (including a 3D model) already available for use in what is ultimately a single episode appearance. This is supported by a Twitter post from series creator/artist Humikane Shimada, mentioning that he would have liked the Helvetian/Swiss Bf 109 flown by Yoshika in the first two episodes to be a D or E variant, but a new 3D model and other reference material would have been excessive for a single appearance (as such, Yoshika flies a Bf 109 F, likely an F-4).

==Browning M1918A2==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle|Browning Automatic Rifle]] returns as Charlotte Yeager's primary weapon, and is also used by Liberion tank crews, seen when they take refuge inside the Zoo Tower.

==Browning M1919A6==
As always, Francesca Lucchini uses a [[Browning M1919A6]], fitted with a custom-mounted detachable ammo box.

==MG 42==
The witch variant of the [[MG 42]], fitted with Patronentrommel 34 drum mags, remains the standard weapon of Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke, Gertrud Barkhorn, Erica Hartmann, and Eila Juutilainen. In addition, Charlotte Yeager briefly borrows Minna's MG 42, after entering a battle unarmed. With Mio Sakamoto having officially left the unit, Gertrud has been promoted to the rank of Squadron Leader.

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
The fictional witch variant of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]], the Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai, is used by Yoshika Miyafuji and Shizuka Hattori. With Shizuka joining the main cast and Yoshika having (mostly) regained her magic, the Type 99 gets considerably more time to shine than in ''Operation Victory Arrow'' or ''The Movie''.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

=Launchers & Other=
==Fliegerhammer==
Night witch Aleksandra Litvyak's weapon of choice remains the Fliegerhammer rocket launcher, inspired by the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]] and designed by Erica's twin sister Ursula Hartmann.

==Helmet Gun==
The genius and eccentric Ursula Hartmann returns with more of her inventions, this time including an incredibly obscure firearm design: A helmet-mounted gun. Specifically, this was a very real patent filed by an American inventor by the name of Albert Bacon Pratt in the 1910s.

[[Image:Helmet_gun_patent.jpg|thumb|none|200px|Albert Bacon Pratt's helmet gun, patent drawing]]
[[Image:SWrtbHG1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|''"The helmet gun. It's a helmet, with a gun on it."'' (Ep.9)]]
[[Image:SWrtbHG2.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Ursula then shows off her midair sound amplifier; this combo of earpieces and goggles is inspired by a real world German design from WWI. Before the advent of radar, much larger and far more absurd-looking acoustic locators were also used in WWII. (Ep.9)]]

==Panzerfaust 250==
The [[Panzerfaust#Panzerfaust 250|Panzerfaust 250]] appears as another of Ursula's creations. The PzF 250 was to be a major evolution of the Panzerfaust series, introducing a reusable tube and a pistol grip assembly, but in our reality while the plans were completed, none were built before the war's end. The design was seized by the Russians, who used it to develop the [[RPG-2]], which then became the ubiquitous [[RPG-7]].

=506th Joint Fighter Wing, Noble Witches cameo=
The Noble Witches make another cameo, and as with ''Operation Victory Arrow'' it's again as a formation of contrails in the sky. Unlike their previous cameos, however, this time the entire 506th appears, making this the first animated appearance of B-unit. Based in Dijon, B-unit is comprised of four Liberion witches: Geena Preddy (M2 Aircraft), Marian Carl (M1919A6), Jennifer DeBlanc ([[Hispano-Suiza HS.404|HS.404]]), and Carla Luksic ([[Browning M2#Browning M2 Water Cooled|M2 Watercooled]]).

=Vehicle-Mounted & Stationary Weapons=
==MG 17==
In the opening scenes of the season, during the fall of Karlsland in 1940, Bf 109 G-2 fighters are seen attempting to take down a Neuroi; the Bf 109s are armed with a pair of [[MG 17]]s above the engine.

[[File:MG 17.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 17 - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]
[[File:SWrtbMG171.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A trio of Bf 109s move to intercept a Neuroi in 1940, the muzzles of the MG 17s clearly visible protruding from the cowling of the closest fighter. (Ep.1)]]

[[File:SWrtbMG173.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The same Bf 109 fires its weapons as it passes over the Neuroi. (Ep.1)]]

==MG 151/20==
The Bf 109s are also equipped with a single [[MG 151|MG 151/20]], mounted through the propeller hub. The Neuroi invasion of Berlin is established as taking place on June 5, 1940. In the real world, this is the same date Germany initiated the second phase of its invasion of France, ''Fall Rot''; this was two days after the end of the British evacuation at Dunkirk, and one day after Winston Churchill's famous ''"We shall fight on the beaches"'' speech. Within the ''World Witches'' universe, that evacuation would take place a year later in June, 1941, as seen in a flashback in the first season, as well as the ''Erica Hartmann 1941'' manga.

==Browning M2 Aircraft==
B-17G Flying Fortress bombers make recurring appearances throughout the season, most notably during a raid over Berlin, in which the Strike Witches deploy from the bomb bay of one of the B-17s. Bristling with defensive armament, B-17Gs are equipped with a total of thirteen [[Browning M2#Browning M2 Aircraft|Browning M2 Aircraft]] machine guns, five in flexible configuration and eight fixed in turrets.

The B-17s that take part in the raid on Wolf are also equipped with fuel-air bombs, to dissipate Wolf's protective cloud. In reality, fuel-air explosives were initially developed by Germany during WWII, under the project name ''Hexenkessel'', which rather fittingly translates to "witch's cauldron". This type of weapon did not see notable combat use until being further developed by the United States during the Vietnam War, and the type of bomb seen here is modelled after the BLU-72, a type of American fuel-air bomb that dates to the late 1960s; while highly anachronistic in reality, it appears that within this universe the technology was developed much faster, likely as a result of collaboration between Karlsland and Liberion.

(Ep.8)]]

==Browning M1919A4==
[[Browning M1919#Browning M1919A4|Browning M1919A4]] machine guns are mounted in M4A3 Sherman tanks, along with their M3 cannon. Each tank is equipped with an M1919A4 in a coaxial mount, another in a bow mount, and interestingly a "spare" Browning attached to the rear of the turret; many of the Shermans also feature a T34 Calliope rocket launcher. A Sherman fitted with a mine plow (repurposed as a farming tool) is prominently used by Perrine while she, Yoshika, and Shizuka visit the Dutch royal family at the Kasteel De Haar.

[[File:SWrtb1919V2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched image of the Sherman with a mine plow. It's odd that the tank would retain its weapons in civilian hands, though this is likely a case of model reuse; it's also possible the weapons are simply unloaded, as it's not unreasonable the royal family could retain a functional tank. Regardless, all of the characters treat the tank as if it has no operational weapons. (Ep.5)]]
[[File:SWrtb1919V3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the end of a hard day's work, Perrine sits atop the Sherman. The bow-mounted M1919A4 is visible on the right side of the hull, while the coaxial machine gun port is on the left of the turret. (Ep.5)]]
[[File:SWrtb1919V4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The group works with the De Haar gardeners to till the fields. As the trio took leave to visit the castle, they travelled unarmed, and thus the weapons on the Sherman are the only firearms featured in the whole episode. (Ep.5)]]

(Ep.10)]]

==MG 34 Panzerlauf==
Alongside the Shermans, the allied tank force is also made up of Tiger Is, which are equipped with a pair of [[MG 34 Panzerlauf]]s, similarly in coaxial and bow positions, as well as an 8.8cm KwK 36 cannon. In addition to the Shermans and Tigers, the key to the whole operation is the ludicrously enormous Ratte, a 1000-ton tank classified as a ''Landkreuzer''. The Ratte's turret is taken from a ''Scharnhorst''-class battleship, with the centre gun removed; in service as tank-mounted weapons, these cannons would have been designated as the 28cm KwK 34. The Ratte also features a single 12.8cm KwK 44 (same as on the Jagdtiger and Maus) mounted in the forward hull, two Kugelblitz turrets each fitted with a pair of 3cm FlaK 103 cannons on the forward engine deck, two Coelian turrets with a 5.5cm Flakzwilling 58 twin cannon each at the rear, and finally eight MG 34 Panzerlauf machine guns around the front and sides of the hull.

(Ep.11)]]

==Bofors 40mm L/60==
The Karlsland trio start off the season at the Saint-Trond airbase in Belgica, which as always is defended by large AA batteries that seem to be oversized twin-mounted [[Bofors 40mm|Bofors]] guns; the base appears to have gained an additional four turrets since its previous appearance. Numerous AA guns also defend the Noble Witches' A-unit base in Sedan (where Pierrette and Lynette are staying), though the B-unit base in Dijon (being visited by Charlotte and Francesca) has no visible AA weapons. In addition to these bases, Aleksandra and Eila had been spending their time at a base in Libau, Orussia.

==Coastal Artillery==
The Schelde Fort, defending the waterway into Antwerpen, is equipped with numerous artillery installations which are put to use in an attempt to destroy the iceberg Neuroi. While no such fortress existed in our reality, given its location it could be considered a thematic reference to the allied amphibious assault that took place there in 1944. The 501st JFW base in Den Helder also features several coastal batteries. In much the same way as the Brave Witches' base in Petersburg is this universe's version of the Peter and Paul Fortress, the Strike Witches' base in Den Helder is equivalent to Fort Erfprins, a fortress from the early 1800s that is still in use as a naval barracks.

[[File:SWrtbCA6.jpg|thumb|none|600px|One of the batteries pointed out to sea, as the sun sets over Den Helder. (Ep.4)]]

==Rheinbote, on 8.8cm FlaK 41 mount==
A Rheinbote rocket is used as a target during a test of the Me 163 Komet striker; the rocket's launch platform is a modified mount for an [[8.8 cm Flak 18/36/37/41|8.8cm FlaK 41]] anti-aircraft gun. In reality, Rheinbote using repurposed gun mounts as launch platforms did happen, though photographs are scarce. The specific setup seen in ''Road to Berlin'', down to its colour scheme is an exact match to a model kit, which likely served as the animators' reference material.

The 8.8cm FlaK 41 itself was an evolution of the 8.8cm FlaK 36 (or 8.8cm KwK 36 as the Tiger I's gun) with a longer barrel and cartridge, and was a direct competitor to the [[8.8 cm Pak 43|8.8cm PaK 43]] (or 8.8cm KwK 43 as the Tiger II's gun). The original FlaK 36 used an 88x571mmR shell, the PaK 43 used an 88x822mmR shell, while the FlaK 41 used an even longer 88x855mmR shell.

[[File:88mm FlaK 41.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FlaK 41 - 88x855mmR]]
[[File:SWrtbF411.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ursula prepares the Rheinbote for launch, atop its FlaK 41 launcher, while Charlotte and Francesca (with emphasis on Charlotte) admire the ''very fast'' rocket. (Ep.9)]]

Rocketry is a recurring theme in this episode, featuring the PzF 250, V 2, Me 163, Rheinbote, and a mention of the Strike Witches' use of rocket boosters in the [[Strike Witches 2|second season]]. This focus on the next generation of technology also serves as contrast to Minna (and Gertrud) approaching the end of their time as witches. (Ep.9)]]

==12.8cm Flakzwilling 40==
Four [[12.8 cm Flak 40|12.8cm Flakzwilling 40]] twin anti-aircraft cannons are seen mounted on the roof of the Flakturm Tiergarten (Tiergarten flak tower), commonly nicknamed the Zoo Tower due to being constructed close to the Berlin Zoo. While the real Zoo Tower was constructed in 1941, and only reequipped with these cannons in 1943, within the ''World Witches'' universe it was constructed before the second Neuroi war in anticipation of their return.

==Naval Weapons==
The ''Littorio''-class battleship ''Doge'' features prominently in the battle with the iceberg Neuroi in the first two episodes. While there was no ship of the class named ''Doge'' in reality, it is certainly the ''World Witches'' universe equivalent to the ''Vittorio Veneto'', as its namesake battle in the Great War never took place due to the first Neuroi invasion. The ''Doge'' actually first appeared in the series ten years previous to ''Road to Berlin'', named on a briefing map as part of the fleet assembled for Operation Mars in [[Strike Witches 2#Naval Weapons|''Strike Witches 2'']]. While most of her armament is the same as listed on the second season page, due to having a new 3D model she does differ in a few ways. Notably, the aircraft catapult has been moved from the stern to the bow, requiring removal of the four [[Breda 37/54 cannon|Breda 37/54 Modello 1938]] twin autocannons that previously occupied that position. In exchange, two additional 37mm Breda emplacements were added just forward of the rear main turret.

[[File:SWrtbN2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''Doge'' fires her nine 381mm main guns at the iceberg, as Yoshika arrives on the scene.

Early August, 1945. The former members of the disbanded 501st Joint Fighter Wing, the Strike Witches, have been back in their home countries or combat theatres since the liberation of Venezia. Yoshika Miyafuji, now a regular civilian after depleting her magic to defeat the Neuroi hive over Venezia, has been sent an invitation to study (non-magic) medicine at a Helvetian (Swiss) medical school. Yoshika accepts, and sets off for Europe aboard the carrier ''Amagi'', alongside her escort, rookie IFN Sergeant Shizuka Hattori.

Meanwhile, a new type of Neuroi starts appearing sporadically around Europe, capable blocking all forms of communication nearby; even worse, some are showing up behind the frontlines, with no clear explanation of how they got there. After arriving in Pas-de-Calais and briefly visiting with Pierrette Clostermann and Lynette Bishop, Yoshika and Shizuka depart for Helvetia. However, given Yoshika's drained magic and Shizuka's lack of combat experience, running into one of those new Neuroi could prove dangerous.

''Strike Witches: The Movie'' is set shortly after ''[[Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow]]'', and is followed by ''[[Strike Witches: Road to Berlin]]''.

For more in-depth explanations of the lore and setting of the ''World Witches'' universe, [[Strike Witches|see the first season's page.]]

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Beretta Modello 1934==
A [[Beretta M1934|Beretta Modello 1934]] is seen being loaded by Squadron Leader Heinrike Prinzessin zu Sayn-Wittgenstein of the 506th JFW during a scramble. The 506th Joint Fighter Wing, or Noble Witches, is made up entirely of witches from noble families, and is split into two sub-units. A-unit, based in Sedan, is comprised of Squadron Leader Rosalie de Hemricourt de Grunne (of Belgica), Heinrike herself (of Karlsland), Flight Lieutenant Adriana Visconti (of Romagna), Flying Officer Kunika Kuroda (of Fuso), and Pilot Officer Isabelle du Monceau de Bergendal (of Belgica); all five members of A-unit cameo in ''The Movie''. B-unit, based in Dijon, is comprised of Wing Commander Geena Preddy, Flight Lieutenant Marian Carl, Flight Lieutenant Jennifer DeBlanc, and Flying Officer Carla Luksic (all from Liberion).

Adriana Visconti also carries a Modello 1934 as her sidearm, which makes sense given she's from Romagna, though it's not seen in her extremely brief cameo. Similarly, Heinrike uses an MG 151 as her main weapon, like fellow night witch Heidemarie Schnaufer, though Heinrike's is not seen in ''The Movie''.

=Submachine Guns=
==MP 40==
Erica Hartmann carries an [[MP40|MP 40]] submachine gun as a backup to her MG 42 on a patrol of the Rhine alongside Gertrud Barkhorn. After overheating her MG 42's barrel (and having neglected to bring spare barrels, as Gertrud did) Erica ditches her machine gun and uses the MP 40 for the remainder of the engagement. Erica's MP 40 features a brown bakelite lower reciever.

MP 40s are also seen in the hands of Karlsland soldiers in the film's opening, a flashback to 1943 in which Karlsland and Liberion infantry and tanks engage ground-type Neuroi, before an enormous flying wing Neuroi shows up, decimating the ground forces, as well as the naval forces supporting them, before being destroyed by the Strike Witches.

[[Image:SWMMP402.jpg|600px|thumb|none|In Saint-Trond, Erica whines about her MP 40 magazines being too hard to load. Gertrud was just loading MG 42 belts with a loading tool, seen to the right.]]

[[Image:SWMMP407.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Erica lays down more fire as they destroy the third. Holding the gun by the magazine generally encourages jams, though in most other shots Erica is properly holding her MP 40 by the magwell.]]
[[Image:SWMMP408.jpg|600px|thumb|none|After complaining that she's tired, Erica attempts to get an in-flight piggyback ride from Trude, resulting in her knocking off nearly all of their weapons and equipment.]]

=Rifles=
==M1 Garand==
In the 1943 prologue, Liberion troops are armed with [[M1 Garand]] rifles.

[[File:M1 Garand.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1 Garand - .30-06 Springfield]]
[[Image:SWMM1G1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A Liberion soldier charges forward, carrying his M1 Garand.]]

==M1 Carbine==
Later in the film, Liberion troops under sudden attack at Bastogne attempt to radio for assistance; one of them can be seen with an [[M1 Carbine]].

[[File:M1-Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine]]
[[Image:SWMM1C1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A Liberion aims his M1 Carbine moments before their position is obliterated by a flying Neuroi. Note the [[Browning M1919#Browning M1919A4|M1919A4]] on a tripod seen here as well.]]

==Boys Mk I*==
The Strike Witches' sharpshooter, Lynette Bishop, uses a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] anti-tank rifle as her weapon of choice. A Boys rifle is also used by the Noble Witches' marksman Isabelle du Monceau de Bergendal, often known by the nickname "Isaac".

[[File:BoysRifle.55.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Boys Mk I* - .55 Boys]]

[[Image:SWMBoys1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|In 1943, Lynette takes aim at the large flying wing Neuroi with her Boys. This engagement is a callback to the very first fight in the series, the opening to the first episode of the first season, with this fight playing out very similarly to that one (though it's not the same engagement).]]
[[Image:SWMBoys2.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Moments later, Perrine Clostermann blocks incoming fire for Lynette, allowing her to make a precise shot and expose the Neuroi's core.]]
[[Image:SWMBoys3.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Returning to 1945, Isabelle and her rifle make an extremely brief, faceless cameo as she scrambles alongside Adriana Visconti and Kunika Kuroda.]]
[[Image:SWMBoys4.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte Yeager grabs Francesca Lucchini and a less-enthusiastic Lynette to perform a combo attack.]]
[[Image:SWMBoys5.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Lynette prepares to open fire on the swarm of torpedo-like small Neuroi.]]
[[Image:SWMBoys6.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Lynette takes aim at one of the transforming Neuroi that's threatening Mio Sakamoto's F1M2 floatplane...]]
[[Image:SWMBoys7.jpg|600px|thumb|none|...and fires. Quality screenshots of Lynette firing her rifle are hard to get, as it's always accompanied by massive screenshake, blurring, and flash.]]
[[Image:SWMBoys8.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Lynette's enormous rifle slung across her back, as she greets her dear friend. While Yoshika seemingly lost her magic at the end of ''[[Strike Witches 2]]'', more accurately she had drained her "magic stamina" to absolute zero; like physical stamina, this shouldn't normally be possible, but occured due to Mio's magic-draining katana. As Yoshika ''believed'' she lost her magic, that "truth" remained with her as a psychosomatic injury. It wasn't until another similarly traumatic, near-death experience occured that Yoshika was able to (entirely unconsciously) use her magic again.]]

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
Pierrette-Henriette Clostermann continues to use a [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] as her main weapon.

==Browning M1918A2==
Charlotte Yeager uses a [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle|Browning Automatic Rifle]], and it gets considerably more time to shine in ''The Movie'' compared to ''Operation Victory Arrow''.

[[Image:BAR.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Browning M1918A2 - .30-06 Springfield]]

[[Image:SWMBAR10.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Francesca and Charlotte perform a synchronized roll while laying down fire, as they approach the main Neuroi.]]

==Browning M1919A6==
Francesca Lucchini continues to use a [[Browning M1919A6]] modified with an attached, but quickly swappable ammo box as her weapon.

[[Image:M1919a6.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Browning M1919A6 - .30-06 Springfield]]

[[Image:SWM191910.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Francesca and Shirley open fire on the cloud of torpedo Neuroi. Note how in this situation Francesca is hipfiring her Browning, pressing it down against the sling, while supporting it with her offhand.]]

==MG 42==
As always, Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke, Gertrud Barkhorn, Erica Hartmann, and Eila Juutilainen, as well as Nikka Katajainen use the witch-version [[MG 42]], redesigned to use Patronentrommel 34 drum magazines. One of Gertrud's pair is borrowed by Yoshika during the climactic battle.

[[Image:SWMMG426.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Erica, however, didn't bring any spares, and tosses aside her MG 42 to use her MP 40 instead.]]
[[Image:SWMMG427.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Adriana Visconti takes off, with her MG 42 ''barely'' visible, tucked under her arm. Note the woodland camo on her C.205V Veltro striker; while most Romagnan/Italian aircraft tended to feature arid colour schemes and small-stripe patterns, this rich/dark green and larger-stripe style was used on the real world prototype C.205, and fits with Adriana being stationed in Gallia/France.]]
[[Image:SWMMG428.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Kunika Kuroda speeds out of the hangar, with her own MG 42 ''slightly'' more visible.

[[Image:SWMMG429.jpg|600px|thumb|none|With the Neuroi blocking regular forms of communication, Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke tells Heidemarie Schnaufer that her antenna is their only hope. In an interesting twist, the white fragments the new Neuroi are dropping to block comms is a reference to "Window"; while Window was specifically created to counter only radar, the Neuroi version counters everything ''except'' the night witches' radar-inspired antennae.]]

[[Image:SWMMG4218.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Yoshika leads the final charge, MG 42 in hand.]]

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
As an Imperial Fuso Navy witch, Shizuka Hattori uses a Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai iteration of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] cannon, designed specifically for use by witches. Shizuka's Type 99 is also used by Yoshika. ''The Movie'' marks the first time the charging "button" is used on-screen, although it was intended as part of the design all along; this function is noted in the design sketch seen below, which predates the first season.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

[[Image:SWMT993.jpg|600px|thumb|none|''"Safety... disengaged."'' Note that the colours have been corrected from the first season, with Fire now being red and Safe being white. Also, in a small design update, while in the first season the fire position was 90-degrees vertical, it's now depicted as only moving to a 45-degree angle.]]

[[Image:SWMT999.jpg|600px|thumb|none|...but it forces her to dodge, and the beam blows a ''massive'' crater into the town. Distracted and distressed, the next beam knocks Shizuka out of the fight, crashing into the town below.]]
[[Image:SWMT9910.jpg|600px|thumb|none|With the arrival of a huge subterranean periscope-inspired Neuroi and no working radio, Yoshika hauls the Type 99 into their jeep in an attempt to lure it away from the town.

[[Image:SWMT9911.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Yoshika parks the jeep and sets up the Type 99 on the steering wheel, bracing herself with her feet as best she can.]]
[[Image:SWMT9912.jpg|600px|thumb|none|''"I'm over here!"'' Yoshika opens up with a long burst of 13.2mm rounds.]]
[[Image:SWMT9913.jpg|600px|thumb|none|After the Neuroi goes underground and reemerges in front of her, left with no options, Yoshika rams the jeep into the Neuroi at full speed, grabbing the gun and bailing at the last possible moment.]]
[[Image:SWMT9914.jpg|600px|thumb|none|No magic. No shield. No backup. Just grit and bravery, as Yoshika makes her last stand.]]

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
The 501st's night witch, Aleksandra Litvyak, continues to use the nine-barrel Fliegerhammer rocket launcher. Originally designed by Erica's twin sister Ursula Hartmann, the Fliegerhammer was inspired by (both in-universe and out) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]].

For additional details, [[Strike Witches#Fliegerhammer|see its first season entry]].

[[Image:SWMFH7.jpg|600px|thumb|none|...and fires a volley of four rockets, followed by the other five. Evidently Sanya reloaded off-screen, though where she stores her spare rockets isn't exactly clear.]]
[[Image:SWMFH8.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Sanya holds her empty launcher moments later, as Eila opens fire and finishes it off.]]
[[Image:SWMFH9.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Back together at last, the Strike Witches form up before engaging the U-Boat Neuroi.]]
[[Image:SWMFH10.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Having reloaded off-screen again, Sanya fires a five-rocket volley at their massive adversary. In total this adds up to two full loads of rockets, meaning Sanya topped off the launcher after the first engagement, then, after emptying it in the second engagement, loaded the leftover rockets for the final engagement.]]

==Panzerfaust 60==
Gertrud Barkhorn equips herself with a pair of [[Panzerfaust#Panzerfaust 60/100|Panzerfaust 60]]s, along with her two MG 42s, two spare barrels, spare magazines, and spare ammo belts, as well as drop tanks for her Fw 190 striker, when she and Erica head out on patrol looking for any sign of the new Neuroi type.

Heidemarie Schnaufer uses an [[MG 151|MG 151/20]] cannon as her weapon, used prominently in the film's present-day (August, 1945) opening, after the 1943-era prologue. Encountering the first of the new Neuroi that can block communications, Heidemarie makes fairly short work of it with her MG 151. As mentioned above, Heinrike Prinzessin zu Sayn-Wittgenstein also uses an MG 151/20 as her main armament. Night witches tend to prefer heavier weapons (MG 151, [[MG FF]], [[Hispano-Suiza HS.404|HS.404]]) paired with heavy fighter strikers (Bf 110, Ju 88, F7F Tigercat), in very much the same way real WWII night fighters tended to be heavy fighters with lots of firepower. While less manoeuvrable, heavy fighter strikers offer witches better load-bearing capacity as well as stronger shields, the latter being especially valuable as night witches typically operate alone.

The standardized witch version of the MG 151/20 features a top-mounted pistol grip, a horizontal off-hand grip, and a detachable drum magazine.

=Saint-Trond airbase shipping manifest=
Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke is seen signing for a shipment of weapons, ammo, and other supplies for the base at Saint-Trond. The list is actually written in German, which isn't surprising as the series is consistent about written elements being in native languages; like many TV shows, the characters are generally speaking Japanese ''for the audience'', rather than actually doing so all the time in-universe.

[[File:SWMform.jpg|thumb|none|600px|While a bit hard to read, the weapons can be made out: Maschinengewehr 42 (quantity 20), Maschinenpistole 40 (10), Panzerfaust 30 (100), Panzerfaust 60 (50).]]

=Vehicle-Mounted & Stationary Weapons=
==MG 34 Panzerlauf==

Tiger I tanks from Karlsland, alongside M4 Shermans from Liberion and supported by infantry, are seen advancing on spider-like ground-based Neuroi in the 1943 prologue. Tigers are armed with a pair of Panzerlauf variant [[MG 34]]s, designed for tank use; one is hull-mounted, while the other is mounted coaxially to the 8.8cm KwK 36 main cannon. The Tigers seen here are actually all the pre-production version of the H1 variant, identifiable by the pair of storage boxes on the sides of the turret (as opposed to a single box at the rear) as well as the lack of mud guards. Due to sharing the same model, all the Tigers share the same number, 100, which (including its white elephant artwork) was a real life Tiger H1; Tiger 100 was captured intact by the Russians during the war.

==Browning M1919A4==
In addition to the tripod-mounted [[Browning M1919#Browning M1919A4|M1919A4]] listed above, tank-mounted versions are used by M4 Sherman tanks, with one hull-mounted machine gun and one coaxial machine gun, next to the 75mm M3 main cannon; the Shermans also have a roof-mounted M2HB.

[[File:SWM1919V3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neither tanks nor infantry stand a chance against such a behemoth.]]

==Browning M2HB==
M4 Sherman tanks feature a pintle-mounted [[Browning M2#Browning M2 Heavy Barrel|M2HB]] on top of the turret. In addition to the prologue, M4s are seen later in the film, under attack at Bastogne. Sharing the same model, all of the Shermans are marked with the serial number "U.S.L. 3033434".

Additionally, a dual-mounted pair of M2HBs is the armament of the 501st JFW's Elco ''PT-103''-class PT boat, which Charlotte and Francesca used to reach Venezia. The ''PT-103''-class normally has a second dual turret further back, however the 501st's example has been modified to remove it, the rear [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon|Oerlikon 20mm cannon]], and all four torpedo tubes, replacing them with a pair of striker launch units. As such, this configuration isn't so much a torpedo boat as it is a transport and mobile launch platform, with the single turret for self-defence; whether this setup is a common (in-universe) sub-class intended for Liberion witch units, or a one-of modification at Charlotte's request is unknown. Given the design details, the animators most likely used ''PT-109'' as reference material; this PT boat was famously commanded by then-Lieutenant John F. Kennedy.

==Type 97==
An F1M2 floatplane attached to the battleship ''Yamato'' is piloted by Mio Sakamoto during the climactic battle; this is most definitely the same F1M seen in the second season. The F1M2 is armed with two [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] for offence, though Mio doesn't actually fire a shot in the movie, despite having at least one notable opportunity; it's possible that in her rush to get airborne there simply wasn't time to fully prep the aircraft.

[[File:SWMT971.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As her fellow Strike Witches clear a path, Mio starts descending towards Yoshika's position. The firing ports for the two Type 97s can be seen in the upper cowling.]]
[[File:SWMT972.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mio flies through the debris of the final Neuroi in her path, as she prepares to drop the package under the F1M2's wing to Yoshika, which contains her (now repaired) J7W1 Shinden striker. Mio expected this eventuality all along.]]
[[File:SWMT973.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With an exhausted Shizuka hanging off the left strut, Mio orbits near the battle, escorted by Sanya and Eila.]]

==Type 92==
The [[Lewis Gun#Type 92|Type 92]], a Japanese copy of the Lewis Gun, is the rear gunner armament of the F1M2. With no one to operate it, the Type 92 also goes unused in the film.

[[File:Type 92 IJN.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Type 92 - 7.7x56mmR]]

==12.8cm FlaK 40==
Multiple [[12.8 cm Flak 40|12.8cm FlaK 40]] anti-aircraft cannons are used by Venezian troops to defend their city from a sudden Neuroi attack, before Francesca and Charlotte take over.

[[File:German 12.8 cm Flak 40 - static mount.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FlaK 40 - 128x958mmR]]
[[File:SWMF401.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Three FlaK 40s fire on the Neuroi. Mounting these enormous cannons on ''grass'' rather than being bolted into concrete doesn't seem like an amazing idea though.]]
[[File:SWMF402.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An officer orders them to cease fire, as their witch support arrives.]]

==2cm Flakvierling 38==
The 502nd JFW, the Brave Witches, have a small frontline base near Petersburg, which is defended by several [[2 cm FlaK 38#2 cm Flakvierling 38|Flakvierling 38]] quad-cannons. In real world production terms, this was the first time members of the ''[[Brave Witches]]'' cast were seen in the show.

[[File:SWMFV386.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As the shot pans right, Waltrud Krupinski and Gundula Rall come into view, as well as a second Flakvierling.]]

==Bofors 40mm L/60==
Saint-Trond airbase in Belgica is defended by large AA batteries which appear to be oversized twin-mounted [[Bofors 40mm|Bofors]] guns. Numerous AA guns also defend the Noble Witches' base in Sedan.

[[File:BoforsTwin.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bofors 40mm L/60 twin mounting - 40x311mmR]]

[[File:SWMB402.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The unsurprisingly elegant Noble Witches base is armed with many AA guns, some with a similar silhouette to Saint-Trond's oversized Bofors guns, some having larger single barrels.]]

==8.8cm FlaK 36==
Three [[8.8 cm Flak 18/36/37/41|FlaK 36]] AA guns in the Ardennes are seen firing at hordes of Ba 349 Natter style Neuroi. While they destroy a few, the sheer number of Neuroi quickly demolish the artillery position.

[[File:SWMF361.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The eighty-eights open fire. One soldier can be seen with a rifle; given the short wooden stock and shape of the muzzle end it's likely an [[MG 34]].]]

==Naval Weapons==
A large fleet engages a flying wing Neuroi in 1943, aircraft carrier ''Amagi'' travels to Europe with six ''Akizuki''-class escorts, and the repaired battleship ''Yamato'' returns to assist in the final battle, humorously fitted with giant floats to allow it to travel up the Rhine. All the ship models originally appeared in ''Strike Witches 2'', and as such it's worth noting that as the 1943 fleet is implied to have been entirely (or at least mostly) sunk, most of the ships depicted cannot truly have been present here, as they appear later, either specifically by name or because there aren't enough ships in their class for them to have been lost. As such, the ships seen in 1943 should be considered ''representative'' of other, similar ships and/or ship classes. For the very lengthy list of all the armament aboard these ships, [[Strike Witches 2#Naval Weapons|see the second season page]].

[[File:SWMN1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|In 1943, a ''Littorio''-class battleship aims her main armament, alongside three ''Navigatori''-class destroyers (every ''Navigatori'' in this panning shot is named "MC") and a ''Zara''-class cruiser.

Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow

2023-10-07T19:45:00Z

Alex T Snow:

[[Image:Strike-Witches-OVA.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow'' (2014-2015)]]

In July of 1945, the 501st Joint Fighter Wing and allied naval fleet destroyed the Neuroi hive over Venezia, liberating the country (the climatic events of ''[[Strike Witches 2]]''). After this victory the 501st JFW was disbanded. Most Strike Witches members were reassigned to fronts in or around their homelands, while Yoshika Miyafuji has entirely retired from service due to draining her magic reserves in order to destroy the hive over Venezia, and is now living a quiet, ordinary civilian life; Mio Sakamoto remains in IFN service, though as she's aged out of her magic abilities Mio is no longer a witch.

''Operation Victory Arrow'' primarily follows three groups of Strike Witches members across its three episodes. ''Saint-Trond's Thunder'' is set half a month after the end of ''Strike Witches 2'', with Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke, Gertrud Barkhorn, and Erica Hartmann, along with night witch Heidemarie W. Schnaufer stationed at Saint-Trond airbase in the Kingdom of Belgica; they're also joined by Erica's twin sister, the genius engineer Ursula Hartmann. ''Goddess of the Aegean Sea'' involves the continued adventures of Francesca Lucchini and Charlotte Yeager, joined by Hanna-Justina Marseille and Raisa Pöttgen, as they attempt to take out a stubborn Neuroi that's hiding ''inside'' the island of Delos, and save the ancient ruins on the island; the commander of all witch forces in Africa, Edytha Neumann, as well as General Rommel himself also appear. ''Arnhem Bridge'' follows Pierrette-Henriette Clostermann and Lynette Bishop, along with Amelie Planchard as they continue to aid in rebuilding Gallia after its liberation in September, 1944 [[Strike Witches|at the end of the first season]]; the story primarily revolves around the orphaned Dutch children Julius and Rose, who Perrine takes into her care.

Additionally, each episode features a short post-credits scene of Yoshika receiving or sending a letter to the witches featured in that episode. The last episode also features a post-credits cameo of Eila Juutilainen and Aleksandra Litvyak visiting the Brave Witches' frontline base, as well as Mio Sakamoto working on a certain pet project.

Chronologically, ''Operation Victory Arrow'' takes place after ''[[Strike Witches 2]]'', and is followed by ''[[Strike Witches: The Movie]]'', which was released before ''OVA'', in 2012.

==Gendarmerie Sidearm==
A member of the Gendarmerie Nationale in Pas-de-Calais chases after Julius, an orphaned refugee from Nederland who stole some cold medicine for his little sister Rose. Given the variety of possible sidearms available at the time, it's impossible to say for sure what's in his holster.

In a flashback to the beginning of the Neuroi invasion, a group of Dutch civilians attempt to hold back the Neuroi on a bridge at Arnhem, Nederland, armed with nothing but [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Over and Under Shotgun (O/U)|double barrel shotguns]].

=Assault Rifles & Rifles=
==StG 44==
Ursula Hartmann arrives at the Saint-Trond base with loads of gifts and equipment to test, among them is an [[StG 44]] fitted with a Krummlauf (curved barrel) attachment. A witch needing to shoot around corners ''in the sky'' seems rather questionable, but that's also the point of this scene, with a bunch of Ursula's fancy tech being various levels of silly. All of them are based on or inspired by real world experimental German tech, and are included in this same entry.

[[Image:StG-44 Krummlauf.jpg|thumb|none|400px|StG 44 with Krummlauf - 7.92x33mm Kurz]]

[[Image:SWovaStG443.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A flying flamethrower sure seems odd (though they were combat tested in reality on He 111s, Ju 88s, and Do 17s), but as Neuroi are made of a ceramic-like material that is hard but brittle, and thus susceptible to rapid temperature changes, a flamethrower might actually be useful. ''Maybe.'' (Ep.1)]]

==Boys Mk I*==
Lynette Bishop continues to use a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] as her signature weapon, though in an ironic reversal, in ''Arnhem Bridge'' she uses one borrowed from Perrine, who normally uses borrowed Britannian weapons. The ''Pantaloni Rossi'' trio from the 504th JFW make a cameo in a slideshow briefing by Group Captain Edytha Neumann about the Neuroi on Delos; the Ardor Witches are seen attempting to attack it directly, with no success.

==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
While Pierrette-Henriette Clostermann doesn't regularly carry around her [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] at this point, due to being well behind the lines aiding in rebuilding Gallia, her butler Jean-Paul had a hidden weapon locker installed in the Clostermann residence in case of emergency.

==Browning M1918A2==
Charlotte Yeager continues to use a [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] as her standard weapon, though she doesn't so much as fire a shot with it in ''Operation Victory Arrow'', opting to use bombs, unconventional methods, and her mastery of mechanical devices instead.

==MG 34==
The Africa-based witches Hanna-Justina Marseille and Raisa Pöttgen of the 31st JFS, as well as Edytha Neumann, commanding officer of all witches in the African theatre use the [[MG 34]] as their weapon of choice, as opposed to the MG 42 preferred by Karlsland witches in Europe.

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
The iconic ''World Witches'' version of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] cannon only gets a cameo in ''Operation Victory Arrow'', prominently held by Yoshika Miyafuji in the opening credits. With Yoshika having drained her magic and Mio having aged out, there aren't any Fuso witches that appear who are capable of using it, at present.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

[[Image:SWovaT995.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The J7W1 Shinden's canards have been turned into vertical stabilizers in striker form, which makes a certain amount of sense; improved directional stability is preferable, as that's presumably a striker's weakest axis. Horizontal surfaces that far back may also hamper a witch's ability to manoeuvre, as witches primarily pitch with their legs. Strikers do in fact have functional ailerons for roll. (OP)]]
[[Image:SWovaT996.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Another good shot of the Type 99 as Yoshika climbs to rejoin the Strike Witches. (OP)]]

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
In ''Saint-Trond's Thunder'', Ursula Hartmann uses the rocket launcher she herself designed, the nine-barrel Fliegerhammer; Aleksandra Litvyak is also seen with one in the opening credits. The Fliegerhammer was inspired by (both in-universe and out) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]].

For additional details, [[Strike Witches#Fliegerhammer|see its first season entry]].

[[Image:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Fliegerfaust (replica) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

[[Image:SWovaFH1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Sanya aims her Fliegerhammer in the opening credits. (OP)]]
[[Image:SWovaFH2.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Consistent with its previous depictions, the standard launch order for single fire is (shooter's perspective) top row to bottom row, right to left. This is very sensible, as this order ensures the Fliegerfaust's centre of gravity is always as low and as close to the shooter as possible. (OP)]]
[[Image:SWovaFH3.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A barrage of nine rockets bails Erica out of a sticky situation. (Ep.1)]]
[[Image:SWovaFH4.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Ursula arrives with perfect timing. Although the launcher is now empty, good trigger disciple is always commendable. (Ep.1)]]

[[Image:SWovaFH6.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Ursula ditches the empty launcher so she can assist her twin. (Ep.1)]]

==PIAT Mk I==
Along with the Bren and Boys, Perrine's hidden armoury also contains a [[PIAT]], with three rounds, which Perrine brings in addition to her Bren. Although in reality "PIAT" is an acronym for "Projector, Infantry, Anti-Tank", supplementary info reveals that in this universe it instead stands for "Projector, Infantry, Armoured-Thing", due to being developed to combat the Neuroi.

[[Image:Piat gun loaded.jpg|thumb|none|400px|PIAT Mk I - 3.25-inch]]
[[Image:SWovaPIAT1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Perrine's PIAT makes its combat debut, with a close-up of the first shaped charge firing. The charge is drawn too wide here, as it's supposed to be loaded from the rear and slid through the ring (as Perrine does later). (Ep.3)]]

[[Image:SWovaPIAT10.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Perrine recocks the PIAT with her good leg. The PIAT is supposed to recock itself automatically after each shot, but in reality this wasn't always reliable. In addition, firing the weapon in the over-the-shoulder, rocket-launcher-style pose used by Perrine, with no pressure on the buttplate, would prevent this mechanism from working regardless. (Ep.3)]]
[[Image:SWovaPIAT11.jpg|600px|thumb|none|With Lynette now on the scene, Perrine takes aim at the top of the water tower the Neuroi is hiding in. (Ep.3)]]
[[Image:SWovaPIAT12.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The last shaped charge is fired, blowing a hole in the top of the building large enough for Lynette to hit the water pipe with her Boys. (Ep.3)]]

=Autocannons=
==MG 151/20==
Night witch Heidemarie Schnaufer uses an [[MG 151|MG 151/20]] cannon as her weapon of choice; she is only seen using a training MG 151/20 in ''Operation Victory Arrow''. Similar to the other large cannons wielded by witches, the MG 151 has been modified with a top-mounted vertical pistol grip, a horizontal grip for the off-hand, and a detachable drum magazine; the weapon is otherwise essentially unmodified.

[[File:Mg15120.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 151/20 - 20x82mm]]

[[File:SWovaMG1516.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Some residual muzzle flash, as well as a fantastic look at Heidemarie's Bf 110 G-4 striker. (Ep.1)]]

==MK 214==
A [[MK 214]] cannon was brought by Ursula to Saint-Trond for testing, alongside a refined version of the Me 262 Schwalbe jet striker. This massive cannon is similar to the [[BK 5]] that appeared in ''Strike Witches 2'', as in reality both were developed in parallel as aircraft versions of the 5cm PaK 38 anti-tank cannon; the BK 5 was Rheinmetall's project, the MK 214 was Mauser's.

[[File:MK 214 A.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MK 214 A - 50x419mmR]]
[[File:SWovaMK2141.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ursula introduces the MK 214, referring to it by name. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:SWovaMK2142.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Gertrud readies for take off, Ursula lists two pieces of advice that also apply to the real Me 262: Do not adjust the throttle until airborne, and to prevent the engines from stalling, do not rapidly accelerate or decelerate. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:SWovaMK2143.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Gertrud tests the striker and the cannon, Erica comments about how long it takes to accelerate and to climb, and how it has a poor turn radius, while Ursula points out that it has a very high max speed and can carry significant firepower. (Ep.1)]]

[[File:SWovaMK2145.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Despite being loaded with non-explosive AP shells, the sheer power of the cannon causes several small types around the one directly hit to also shatter. (Ep.1)]]

Given the composition of the 506th, this is certainly A-unit, stationed in Sedan, comprising of Heinrike Prinzessin zu Sayn-Wittgenstein (MG 151), Adriana Visconti (MG 42, or a ''pair'' of Fliegerhammers), Kunika Kuroda (MG 42), and Isabelle du Monceau de Bergendal (Boys). These four, plus Noble Witches commanding officer Rosalie de Hemricourt de Grunne, all make ''proper'' cameos in ''Strike Witches: The Movie''.

[[File:SWova506th.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Four contrails soar over the Gallian countryside. Formed after the liberation of Gallia in September, 1944 to protect Gallia, the brass had originally wanted Perrine to command the 506th, however she turned down the offer, preferring to focus on rebuilding Gallia. (Ep.3)]]

=Vehicle-Mounted & Stationary Weapons=
==Breda-SAFAT 12.7mm machine gun==
A pair of P.108B bombers are seen having attempted to take out the Neuroi on Delos in Edytha Neumann's briefing, however both were destroyed. The P.108B is armed with a total of six [[Breda-SAFAT machine gun|Breda-SAFAT machine guns]] chambered in 12.7mm, with one nose gunner, one ventral gunner, and a twin turret in each outboard engine nacelle, controlled remotely.

[[File:SWovaBreda-SAFAT.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Only the ventral turret of each P.108 is visible from this angle, and the turrets are currently retracted. (Ep.2)]]

==Type 97==
Having aged out of her magic, Mio Sakamoto is seen flying an A6M3 Reisen in the opening credits. The Zero is armed with a pair of [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] in the engine cowling, as well as a pair of Type 99 cannons in the wings.

[[File:Type 97.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Type 97 aircraft machine gun - 7.7x56mmR]]

[[File:SWovaT972.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mio pulls away after the run, Neuroi shards sent flying. The muzzle of one of the Type 97s can be seen just behind the black cowling. (OP)]]

==Type 99 Mark 1==
In addition to its Type 97 MGs, the A6M is armed with a [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99 Mark 1]] cannon in each wing. When equipped on Zeros, the Mark 1 can be identified due to not protruding from the wing (as seen here) while the scaled-up Mark 2 sticks out significantly.

[[image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Top: Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mmRB / Bottom: Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mmRB]]
[[File:SWovaT973.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The muzzle ports for the Type 99s ''should'' be visible here, in the larger square panels along the leading edge; it seems they weren't modelled, though they'd only be visible for a couple frames. The Type 97s are, however, very visible here. (OP)]]
[[File:SWovaT974.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mio in the cockpit of her A6M3, the same model she used to fly in striker form. (OP)]]

==MG 34 Panzerlauf==
A Tiger I is seen in the opening credits, and while they're not visible from the rear, it would be armed with a pair of [[MG 34 Panzerlauf]] variants, one in the coaxial mount, one hull-mounted, as well as its 8.8cm KwK 36 main cannon. This Tiger is actually a pre-production version of the H1 variant, specifically marked as Tiger 100, with "100" and white elephant markings; this is the same model seen in ''The Movie''.

==8.8cm FlaK 36==
A trio of the iconic [[8.8 cm Flak 18/36/37/41|"eighty-eights"]] are seen in the opening credits.

[[File:SWova88.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gertrud, Erica, and Minna at a base defended by a few FlaK guns. Note the two-piece barrels. (OP)]]

==Bofors 40mm L/60==
Saint-Trond airbase is heavily defended by large AA batteries which appear to be oversized twin-mounted [[Bofors 40mm|Bofors]] guns.

[[File:BoforsTwin.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bofors 40mm L/60 twin mounting - 40x311mmR]]
[[File:SWovaB1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The castle-style main part of the base features a twin AA gun on each turret, as well as two more along the front wall; the opposite side presumably has another two, making for a total of twelve twin cannons. (Ep.1)]]

==2cm Flakvierling 38==
The Brave Witches' small frontline base near Petersburg is defended by several [[2 cm FlaK 38#2 cm Flakvierling 38|Flakvierling 38]] quad-cannons. As ''[[Brave Witches]]'' is set before ''Strike Witches 2'', this scene takes place much later than the events of ''Brave Witches''.

==Naval Weapons==
A Venezian/Romagnan fleet appears prominently in ''Goddess of the Aegean Sea'', as does the ''Liberty''-class cargo ship SS ''Peter Skene Ogden''. In addition, battleship ''Yamato'' makes a cameo in a post-credits scene at the very end of ''OVA'', and several other battleships appear in the opening credits. The Liberty ship is armed with one 3-inch gun at the bow, one 5-inch gun at the stern, along with eight [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon|20mm/70 Mark 4]] autocannons. A full list of armament for the rest of the ships can be found [[Strike Witches 2#Naval Weapons|on the second season page]].

Built as an emergency measure and technically civilian vessels, Liberty ships didn't have particularly standardized armament in terms of details; the deck guns were usually assorted leftover pieces from WWI, making any specific identification exceptionally difficult. (Ep.2)]]
[[File:SWovaN4-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Neuroi on Delos peers out of its cave, preparing to strike its latest prey. The ship's 3-inch gun and one of the Oerlikons are visible here. (Ep.2)]]

The simplest explanation is they are merely reused assets (as with ''The Movie'') and canonically at least one should be considered to be a different, similar class of cruiser. (Ep.2)]]

Strike Witches 2

2023-10-07T19:43:25Z

Alex T Snow:

[[Image:Strike-Witches-2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Strike Witches 2'' (2010)]]

March, 1945; six months have passed since the destruction of the Neuroi hive over Gallia by the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, the Strike Witches. Semi-retired Imperial Fuso Navy Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji is living peacefully back home in Fuso when she receives another letter from her late father, Ichiro Miyafuji, an engineer who specialized in the striker units that witches use to fly and fight against the invading aliens known as the Neuroi.

Meanwhile, in the skies over Venezia the 504th Joint Fighter Wing, the Ardor Witches, are undertaking an operation with the goal of attempting to communicate with a witch-like Neuroi, similar to one that had tried to communicate peacefully with Yoshika the previous year. However, before contact could be made a new, far larger Neuroi hive formed over Venezia, killing the Witch-Neuroi and entirely obliterating the existing hive. Back in Fuso, Yoshika, now with Squadron Leader Mio Sakamoto, overhears a desperate radio transmission from Flight Sergeant Lynette Bishop of Britannia, another former Strike Witches member. Despite Mio's initial objections, Yoshika ends up accompanying Mio back to Europe, where the 501st is reassembled to combat this sinister new threat.

''[[Brave Witches]]'' (released in 2016) and ''[[Luminous Witches]]'' (2022) take place '''before''' ''Strike Witches 2'', as does the ''The Sky That Connects Us'' manga, which follows the Strike Witches' lives between the two seasons. In chronological order, ''Strike Witches 2'' is followed by ''[[Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow]]''.

For more in-depth explanations of the lore and setting of the ''World Witches'' universe, [[Strike Witches|see the first season's page.]]

{{Anime Title}}

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Nambu Type 14==
In a flashback, Mio Sakamoto, nearing the end of her days as a witch, has Petty Officer Keisuke Hijikata use a [[Nambu Type 14]] to test Mio's weakening shield.

[[Image:SW2Nambu6.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A dejected Mio looks down at the first bullet, lying on the sand. (Ep.2)]]

==Beretta Modello 1934==
Pilot Officer Francesca Lucchini of Romagna uses a stainless [[Beretta M1934|Beretta Modello 1934]] customized with black controls, the 501st JFW emblem on the grips, as well as her personal emblem and a gold banner with her name on the slide. Under the gold banner is marked ''~Gratitudine di Maria~'' (Gratitude of Maria). In the fifth episode, Princess Maria Pia di Romagna encountered Francesca in Roma and the two spent the day together (including numerous homages to the film ''Roman Holiday''), unaware who the other actually was (a princess and a witch). After Francesca, Charlotte, and Yoshika defend Roma from a Neuroi attack, later the same day Maria ascends to the position of Duchess. Soon after, she sends the Strike Witches an airdrop of supplies; Francesca and Charlotte's matching pistols were likely in these crates, though they aren't seen on-screen.

As promotional material for ''Strike Witches 2'', Francesca and Charlotte had their respective sidearms released as airsoft replicas.

[[Image:SW2M19343.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Francesca watches a Romagnan Ju 52 fly over the 501st's base in Pescara, preparing to drop its supplies. (Ep.5)]]

==Colt M1911A1==
Flight Lieutenant Charlotte Elwyn "Shirley" Yeager of the United States of Liberion also receives a custom pistol from Maria, an [[M1911 pistol series#M1911A1|M1911A1]] built to match Francesca's customized Beretta. The trademarks on the gun read ''Colette's PT.F.A.MFG.CO.'' (rather than "Colt's"), since, as with most country names, most manufacturer names are also variations of their real versions in the ''World Witches'' universe.

=Rifles=
==Boys Mk I*==
The Strike Witches' designated marksman, Lynette Bishop, continues to use a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] with its bipod removed as her signature weapon. Flying Officer Ángela Salas Larrazábal of the Kingdom of Hispania and Pilot Officer Luciana Mazzei of Romanga, members of the 504th Joint Fighter Wing, the Ardor Witches, also use Boys rifles. Before becoming a member of the Ardor Witches in Romagna, Ángela used a [[Panzerbüchse 38 / 39#Panzerbüchse 39|Panzerbüchse 39]] as her weapon of choice. While Luciana uses a Boys as standard, when the situation demands it she also uses the gigantic [[Solothurn S-18 20mm Anti-Tank Rifle|Solothurn S-18/1000]], as seen in the ''Streghe Rosse'' (Red Witches) manga, which follows the 504th JFW before, during, and after this incident.

[[Image:SW2Boys8.jpg|600px|thumb|none|However, Eila stubbornly believes herself unable to raise a shield and simply dodges as usual, leaving an understandably distraught Perrine (who was standing in for Aleksandra Litvyak, who Eila needs to protect in their planned mission) blocking the massive 13.9mm bullet with her own shield at the last moment. This continues to happen until Lynette is out of ammo. (Ep.6)]]

A PU scope, in its mount for the [[Mosin Nagant Rifle#Mosin Nagant Rifle|Mosin Mod. 1891/30]] (often colloquially called "Mosin-Nagant" in the West) is seen quite inexplicably mounted to a fire hose, together with a pistol grip assembly.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
Despite the liberation of Gallia, Flying Officer Pierrette-Henriette "Perrine" Clostermann continues to use the Britannian-made [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] as her weapon of choice, likely for a combination of having become very familiar with the weapon type, and (though Perrine would never admit to such sentimentality) an attachment to Britannia after serving there as part of the 501st.

==Browning M1918A2==
Flight Lieutenant Charlotte Yeager continues to use a [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] as her standard weapon. Although holding drastically less ammo than the other witches' weapons, the BAR is well-suited to Shirley's preference for speed, being a far lighter and more compact gun.

==MG 34==
Flight Lieutenant Hanna-Justina Wallia Rosalind Sieglinde Marseille of the 31st Joint Fighter Squadron Afrika, the Storm Witches, uses an [[MG 34]]. Having earned quite a fan-following and called the "Star of Africa", Hanna is also known to own a Beretta Modello 1934 with a tan finish, which was presented to her as a gift. Unlike nearly every other weapon used by witches, the bipod is retained on the MG 34, in order to use it as a foregrip.

==MG 42==
The Karlsland trio, Wing Commander Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke, Flight Lieutenant Gertrud Barkhorn, and Flying Officer Erica Hartmann, along with Flying Officer Eila Ilmatar Juutilainen of Suomus, all continue to equip [[MG 42s]] modified to use the Patronentrommel 34 drum magazine. The MG 42 is also used by Romagnan witches Flying Officer Fernandia Malvezzi and Flight Sergeant Martina Crespi, of the Ardor Witches.

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
The mainstay of Fuso witches, a fictional iteration of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] aircraft cannon, makes its return, once again used by Yoshika Miyafuji and Mio Sakamoto. It is also seen used by Flight Lieutenant Junko Takei of the Ardor Witches, who fought alongside Mio in the Fuso Sea Incident. Covered in the ''1937 Fuso Sea Incident'' manga, this battle was the first major use of Miyafuji-type striker units against the Neuroi, and was a resounding victory for the witches.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
The Fliegerhammer, a fictional multi-barrel rocket launcher, is once again used by Flying Officer Aleksandra Vladimirovna "Sanya" Litvyak. Designed by Erica's twin sister and genius engineer Ursula Hartmann, the Fliegerhammer was inspired by (both in-universe and out) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]]. Ursula also makes her first animated appearance this season.

For additional details, [[Strike Witches#Fliegerhammer|see its first season entry]].

=Autocannons=
==MK 108==
In addition to the Me 262 V1 Schwalbe prototype jet-powered striker unit developed by Ursula Hartmann and sent to the 501st for testing, they're also given four [[MK 108]] cannons and a BK 5 cannon to use as its armament; four MK 108s was the standard armament of real Me 262s as well.

The modifications for use by witches consist of attaching them together in pairs, with a bar in front and pistol-grip-like assembly in the rear, wires running to the grip for the trigger (these existed in reality, the difference here is they go to the new pistol grip), drum magazines that fit under the pair and feed both guns from the same drum, and one of the pairs being manufactured left-handed so all of the shells eject away from the shooter.

[[File:MK108.JPG|thumb|none|400px|MK 108 - 30x90mmRB]]
[[File:SW2MK1081.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The two pairs of unloaded MK 108s sit on the ground; the connecting parts and wires can be seen here, as well as a single drum magazine on the right. (Ep.4)]]

[[File:SW2MK1086.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gertrud obliterates a target balloon with a salvo from the MK 108s. (Ep.4)]]

==BK 5==
The [[BK 5]], a massive anti-bomber cannon that fires 50mm rounds, is part of the Me 262 testing package sent by Ursula. In reality, while these were only tested on Me 262s, they were fielded operationally on Me 410s, and they're credited with over 130 bombers shot down.

Compared to the MK 108s, the BK 5 has few modifications for use by witches, notably a horizontal pistol grip and trigger on the right and horizontal grip for the off-hand on the left; the magazine is also more aggressively curved, so that it doesn't wrap around the whole weapon, staying out of the way on the right side.

=Vehicle-Mounted Weapons=
==Breda-SAFAT 12.7mm machine gun==
Romagnan C.202 Folgore fighters are armed with a pair of [[Breda-SAFAT machine gun|Breda-SAFAT machine guns]] chambered in 12.7mm, mounted in the engine cowling.

==Browning .303 Mk II*==
A Romagnan Lancaster Mk III (Special), the variant modified to deliver an Upkeep bouncing bomb, is used in an attempt to damage/destroy the obelisk-Neuroi. As the dorsal turret was removed from this variant, it is armed with six [[Browning_M1919#Browning_AN.2FM2|Browning .303 Mk II*]] machine guns, two in the nose turret, four in the rear turret. This Lancaster also features the nose art of ''The Saint'', a real Mk III (Special).

(Ep.6)]]

==Type 99 Mark 1==
The [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] cannon also appears mounted on the 501st JFW's H8K2 flying boat, mounted in its nose, dorsal, and rear turrets in its flexible configuration. A pair of fixed Type 99s are also used by A6M3 Reisen fighters from carriers ''Amagi'', ''Chitose'', and ''Chiyoda''.

==Type 97==
The same A6M3 Reisen fighters are also armed with a pair of [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] in the engine cowling. An F1M2 floatplane, also armed with a pair of Type 97s in the cowling, is seen stored in ''Yamato'''s hangar.

==Vickers GO No. 1 Mk I==
A Willys MB fitted with a machine gun can be seen outside the Storm Witches' camp in North Africa. Although not especially detailed, that it's a Willys MB in North Africa makes it rather obvious that it's intended to be a [[Vickers K machine gun|Vickers GO No. 1 Mk I]], and the silhouette does match. Originally an aircraft-mounted gun, in reality the Vickers GO was famously used by the Long Range Desert Group and Special Air Service in improvised mounts on jeeps, generally for raids on Axis airfields and similar.

==Naval Weapons==
Ships from most major nations appear this season, including: One ''Akagi''-class and two ''Chitose''-class aircraft carriers, one ''Yamato''-class battleship, two ''Takao''-class cruisers, six ''Akizuki''-class and one ''Kagerou''-class destroyers, and one ''I-400''-class submarine from Fuso. Two ''Littorio''-class battleships, three ''Zara''-class cruisers, and eight ''Navigatori''-class destroyers from Venezia and Romagna. Four ''King George V''-class battleships from Britannia. Two ''Bismarck''-class battleships from Karlsland. Five ''Fletcher''-class destroyers from Liberion.

The ''Amagi'' in this universe is a sister ship to ''Akagi'' (she is not the ''Unryuu''-class ''Amagi'') and as such she is identical to [[Strike Witches#Naval Weapons|her sister ship that appeared in the first season]]. The carriers ''Chitose'' and ''Chiyoda'' are equipped with purely AA armament, consisting of four twin [[Type 89 naval gun|12.7cm/40 Type 89]] cannons and ten triple 25mm [[Type 96 cannon|Type 96]] autocannons. The submarine aircraft carrier ''I-400'' is armed with one 14cm/40 11th Year Type cannon on her rear deck, along with three triple 25mm Type 96s atop the aircraft hangar. Battleship ''Yamato'' is armed with nine enormous 40cm/45 Type 94 cannons (actually 46cm) in three triple turrets as her primary armament, six 15.5cm/60 3rd Year Type cannons in two triple turrets as her secondary, along with twelve twin 12.7cm/40 Type 89s (six in enclosed turrets) and twenty-eight triple 25mm Type 96s (sixteen in enclosed turrets) for AA defence. Cruisers ''Takao'' and ''Maya'' feature ten 20cm/50 3rd Year Type No.2 cannons (actually 20.3cm) in five twin turrets, as well as four twin 12.7cm/40 Type 89s and twenty-four 25mm Type 96s, split between six twin and four triple mounts as AA armament. The ''Akizukis'' are equipped with eight 10cm/65 Type 98 cannons in four twin turrets, with three triple 25mm Type 96s for additional AA defence. The ''Kagerou'''s armament is listed on the first season page.

Battleships ''Littorio'' and ''Doge'' are equipped with nine Ansaldo 381/50 Modello 1934 cannons in three triple turrets as primary armament, twelve Ansaldo 152/55 Modello 1934 cannons in four triple turrets as secondary, with twelve [[Ansaldo 90/50 naval gun|Ansaldo 90/50 Modello 1939]] cannons in single turrets and eighteen [[Breda 37/54 cannon|Breda 37/54 Modello 1938]] twin autocannons for anti-air. Cruisers ''Zara'', ''Pola'', and their third sister ship are armed with eight Ansaldo 203/53 Modello 1927 cannons in four twin turrets, with an AA complement of eight twin OTO 100/47 Modello 1927 cannons and four twin 13.2mm [[Breda Modello 31]] machine guns. The ''Navigatoris'' feature three twin Ansaldo 120/50 Modello 1926 cannons, with eleven [[Breda Modello 35|Breda 20/65 Modello 1935]] autocannons for AA defence. Battleships HMS ''Prince of Wales'', HMS ''Duke of York'', HMS ''Anson'', and HMS ''Howe'' are seen with eight BL 14-inch Mk VII cannons split between one quadruple turret and two twin turrets (this is a goof, the rear turret should also be quadruple, for ten total guns), with sixteen QF 5.25-inch Mark I cannons in eight twin turrets as secondary armament, and nine [[Maxim#Vickers QF 2-pounder|QF 2-pounder Mark VIII]] octuple autocannons for anti-air protection. Battleships ''Bismarck'' and ''Tirpitz'' are armed with eight 38cm SK C/34 cannons in four twin turrets, twelve 15cm SK C/28 cannons in six twin turrets as secondary armament, along with eight twin [[10.5 cm Flak 38|10.5cm SK C/33]] cannons, six twin [[3.7 cm SK C/30|3.7cm SK C/30]] cannons, and six [[2cm FlaK 30|2cm MG C/30]] autocannons as anti-air defence. The ''Fletchers'' are equipped with five [[5-inch/38 naval gun|5"/38 Mark 12]] cannons in single turrets as their main armament, with five [[Bofors 40mm|40mm/56 M1]] autocannons and seven [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon|20mm/70 Mark 4]] autocannons for anti-air.

[[File:SW2N1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Battleship ''Yamato'' rests in port, being prepared for her journey to Europe. The people on the dock give a sense of just how massive she is. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:SW2N2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Yoshika Miyafuji and Michiko Yamakawa take in a beautiful view of Yokosuka, as the H8K flying boat touches down. The left-most ship is an ''Akizuki''-class, while the one at centre is a ''Kagerou''-class making a reappearance from the first season. Although her name isn't quite legible, it's four characters/syllables long and the number on the bow appears to be 16 (rather than 17), making her ''Yukikaze'' or ''Hatsukaze''. Of the two ''Yukikaze'' is most likely, as the real ship is famous for being one of extremely few Japanese ships to survive WWII, and one of even fewer to see further military service. (Ep.1)]]
[[File:SW2N3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''Littorio'' leads the Venezian/Romagnan fleet.

(Ep.2)]]

The text on the main turret is ''Zara'''s motto, ''Tenacemente'' (Tenaciously), though it's seen on all the ships as they share the same model. (Ep.2)]]
[[File:SW2N3-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Yoshika overflies "Venier". Two ''Navigatoris'' are named (''Federico Nani'' and "Venier", possibly ''Sebastiano Venier'') while all eight feature unique pennant letters (VE for "Venier", BA, QU, DC, MC, DU, BR, and one unseen for ''Federico Nani''), however what's especially interesting is these are all fictional names/pennants (as is ''Doge''). Seeing as ''Doge'' is this universe's name for ''Vittorio Veneto'' (as that battle never took place due to the Neuroi interrupting the Great War) it can be assumed that the ''Navigatoris'' having alternate names is due to other differences in the region's history, still not unified as single country. (Ep.2)]]

(Ep.6)]]
[[File:SW2N5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With an ''Akizuki''-class in the background, ''Yamato'' fires her primary and secondary turrets at the bomb-Neuroi, a salvo of 460mm shells sailing through the air. (Ep.8)]]

''Takao'' is so badly damaged in this engagement that she is replaced in Operation Mars by her sister ship, ''Maya''. (Ep.8)]]
[[File:SW2N5-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Submarine carrier ''I-400'' moves in under cover of the allied fleet. The three triple Type 96s sit on the aircraft hangar, with the 14cm deck gun to the rear. (Ep.10)]]

The simplest canonical explanation is that ''Melvin'' is only actually present in this specific scene in port. The real ship was nicknamed "Blue Devil" (''aoi akuma'') and "Merciless Melvin" (''mujihina Melvin'') by the Japanese. (Ep.11)]]
[[File:SW2N8.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Minna with a map of the fleet, naming every ship aside from most of the ''Akizukis'' and ''Navigatoris''. The ''Fletchers'' are USS ''Nicholas'', USS ''La Vallette'', USS ''Heywood L. Edwards'', and USS ''Richard P.

''Hatsuzuki'' is erroneously listed twice, though a brief shot of the forward ship shows her to be ''Akizuki'', meaning ''Hatsuzuki'''s actual position is screening ''Maya''. (Ep.11)]]
[[File:SW2N9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A shot of the entire fleet, aside from the three lead destroyers.

[[Image:Brave-Witches.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Brave Witches'' (2016-2017)]]

The story of ''Brave Witches'' begins in September, 1944, shortly before the destruction of the Neuroi hive over Gallia by the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, the Strike Witches. Witch-in-training Hikari Karibuchi, younger sister to veteran witch Takami Karibuchi, volunteers for deployment to Europe to bolster witch forces in the ever-worsening conflict with the alien Neuroi. After managing to (technically) pass her acceptance trial, Hikari is assigned to the Suomus Independent Volunteer Aerial Squadron (set to be reorganized into the 507th JFW, the Silent Witches) while Takami is assigned to the 502nd JFW, the Brave Witches; the Karibuchi sisters depart for Europe on the same day news of the Gallia hive's destruction reaches Fuso newspapers.

After three weeks of travel through the Arctic Ocean, their carrier group comes under attack by Neuroi, and Takami ultimately ends up comatose after using her Absolute Magic Eye ability to decimate most of the Neuroi. Hikari volunteers to take Takami's place in the 502nd, a high-risk frontline assignment, despite Hikari herself having relatively low magic ability, which she also has poor control over. The story of ''Brave Witches'' follows Hikari's struggle to prove herself as a witch in the harsh environment of the Eastern Front, and to fit in with a squadron she was never supposed to be a part of.

Chronologically ''Brave Witches'' takes place after ''[[Strike Witches]]'', alongside the latter third of ''[[Luminous Witches]]'', and before ''[[Strike Witches 2]]''. The ''Brave Witches Prequel'' novel series (and its manga adaptation) is, rather unsurprisingly, set prior to ''Brave Witches''.

==FP-45 Liberator==
'''An additional spoiler warning: This pistol is key to events in the series finale, something avoidable on most other ''Witches'' pages due to the climax usually not directly involving a firearm.'''

An [[FP-45 Liberator]] is shipped to the 502nd JFW base in Petersburg, Orussia along with other weapons and supplies. Hikari takes a liking to the strange-looking pistol, at first not even realizing it's a gun. Waltrud Krupinski plays along and convinces Hikari it's actually a "Celtic magic talisman" as it's "shaped like a rune". Hikari wears it around her neck for the mission to Murman, during which she gives it back to Waltrud still thinking it's a good-luck charm. Some time later, Waltrud returns the Liberator to Hikari, who places it in her pocket and forgets about it...

=Submachine Guns=
==KP/-31==
At least one [[Suomi KP/-31|KP/-31]] submachine gun is among the supplies sent to the Brave Witches' base. It's likely intended for use by Nikka Katajainen, the only Suomus witch in 502nd, though it's not seen used in the show. The KP/-31 was a mainstay weapon of many Suomus witches earlier in the war and prominently seen in the ''Witches of Aurora'' manga, which focuses on Nikka, Eila Juutilainen, and other Suomus witches of LeLv 24, including Eini Luukkanen, Laura Nissinen, and Hanna Wind, as well as Eila's elder sister Aurora, a tank witch.

==MP 40==
Karlsland soldiers operating artillery and supporting other elements of Operation Freyja are mostly armed with [[MP 40]] submachine guns.

==StG 44==
Flying Officer Waltrud Krupinski of Karlsland uses a [[StG 44|Sturmgewehr 44]] as her weapon of choice, while Squadron Leader Gundula Rall, also of Karlsland, uses one on occasion as well. Their StG 44s are sometimes equipped with a fictional grenade launcher based on (and developed from, in an in-universe sense) the [[Leuchtpistole|Leuchtpistole 34]]; the grenades fired from the launcher are rocket-propelled.

==Karabiner 98k==
The firing range at the Brave Witches' base in Petersburg features a number of [[Karabiner 98k]]s, presumably for use by the base's non-witch personnel. Rather bizarrely, in one specific shot they turn into lever-action rifles; given the setting they are most likely Russian-contract [[Winchester Model 1895]]s.

==Solothurn S-18/100==
Flight Lieutenant Takami Karibuchi wields a [[Solothurn S-18 20mm Anti-Tank Rifle|Solothurn S-18/100]] fitted with its scope as her weapon of choice. A powerful precision weapon such as the S-18 pairs well with Takami's Magic Eye and Absolute Magic Eye abilities, which allow her to see Neuroi cores, and see ''multiple'' cores from a distance, respectively. Takami's rifle is also temporarily used by Hikari, and Gundula Rall later uses one as well.

[[Image:BWS185.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Left with no alternatives, Takami uses her Absolute Magic Eye ability, letting her see and target ''all'' of the Neuroi cores, but at the cost of severely weakening her shield and being extremely taxing on her body and mind. (Ep.2)]]
[[Image:BWS186.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Takami opens fire on the five remaining medium-type Neuroi. Throughout this battle, Takami manages to fire 23 rounds from her S-18/100, which only has a 10-round magazine. She fires 11 rounds (a full magazine plus a round in the chamber) before a hard cut to another scene for a potential off-screen reload, however after this she fires 12 rounds without reloading. (Ep.2)]]
[[Image:BWS187.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Takami takes down the five Neuroi with one shot each, and then, utterly spent, crashes back onto the carrier's deck. (Ep.2)]]
[[Image:BWS188.jpg|600px|thumb|none|It was in this moment, when all hope had faded, that Hikari took up her sister's rifle. As well as Takami's beloved N1K4-A Shiden Kai striker, named ''Chidori''. (Ep.2)]]

Like her namesake, Rall was shot down early in the war and suffered a severe spinal injury, being told she would never fly again. (Ep.10)]]

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
The [[Bren gun|Bren]] makes a brief appearance used by Sergeant Nora Taylor of 804 Naval Air Squadron, the sole witch escort for the Britannian supply convoy to Murman. Although referred to as a Britannian witch due to serving in the Fleet Air Arm, Nora is actually from Australis. Similarly, although dialogue suggests she was shot down defending the convoy, she in fact crash landed after repelling the initial Neuroi attack. A lone witch launching to defend a convoy and subsequently crash-landing is a reference to the real-world Royal Navy's use of CAM Ships, which were fitted with a Hurricane mounted to a catapult, intended to defend the convoy from raiders, such as Fw 200 Condors, and then bail out or ditch the aircraft with the pilot recovered by one of the ships.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
Flight Lieutenant Aleksandra Ivanovna "Sasha" Pokryshkin of Orussia uses a [[Degtyaryov DP Series Machine Gun#Degtyaryov DP-27/DP-28|DP-27]], as does Pilot Officer Georgette "Jose" Lemare of Gallia, who served as a member of the Normandie-Niemen squadron before joining the 502nd JFW. Prior to being transferred to Normandie-Niemen, Georgette used a Bren like other witches of the Free Gallian Air Force.

==MG 42==
The witch-version [[MG 42]], redesigned to use Patronentrommel 34 drum magazines, is used by Flight Sergeant Nikka Edvardine "Nipa" Katajainen of Suomus. Gundula Rall also uses it as her preferred weapon, though she's only seen using it during the battle at the beginning of the first episode and in the opening credits. Eila Juutilainen uses an MG 42 as well; Eila and Aleksandra Litvyak visit the Brave Witches to deliver supplies during the Saturnalia festival. This visit is further expanded upon in the ''Petersburg Grand Strategy'' OVA, set between episodes 7 and 8.

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
The fictional iteration of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] cannon designed for use by witches, the Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai, is used by Pilot Officer Naoe Kanno, Flight Sergeant Sadako Shimohara, and Sergeant Hikari Karibuchi. Takami Karibuchi also uses one during her competition with Hikari, as well as a training version Type 99 in a mock battle with Waltrud Krupinski. Witch cadets at Sasebo Aviation Preparatory School, including Miya Misumi, are also seen using Type 99s. Retired witch Fumika Kitagou, a veteran of the 1937 Fuso Sea Incident and former mentor to Mio Sakamoto, now serves as the school's headmaster.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
The Fliegerhammer, a fictional nine-barrel rocket launcher, is used by Flight Sergeant Edytha Rossmann (alternatively, "Roßmann") of Karlsland. Designed by Ursula Hartmann, the Fliegerhammer was inspired by (both in-universe and out) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]]. Edytha's launcher is painted in a grey colour scheme fitting the snowy Orussian terrain, as opposed to its more common dark green paint scheme. The green-painted version is used once again by Flying Officer Aleksandra "Sanya" Litvyak as her weapon of choice. In addition to appearing in ''Brave Witches'', Sanya also makes a brief (second) cameo in the final episode of ''Luminous Witches'', that appearance set during the the ''Petersburg Grand Strategy'' OVA. Specifically, her December 26 night patrol seen there slots into the ''Brave Witches'' OVA between days/cuts at the timestamp of 06:18.

For additional details, [[Strike Witches#Fliegerhammer|see its first season entry]].

=Other=
==Tank witch cannons==
Tank witches make their first animated appearance in a brief cameo at the Murman naval base. Tank witches use land-based striker units that are themed after tanks rather than aircraft. However, unlike their airborne counterparts they do not usually use standard small arms, but instead specially designed cannons that (much like striker units themselves) resemble miniaturized versions of that tank's main cannon. These cannons are measured in "magic mass", which cleverly allows the cannons to have the same (sounding) calibre designation as their full size counterparts (75mm, 76mm, etc) despite obviously being far smaller in actual bore diameter. Tank witch Aurora Juutilainen also has a brief cameo near the end of the season.

==Sadako's bow==
After being shot down and losing their weapons, Sadako, Georgette, and Hikari take shelter in an abandoned KV-2, where they devise a plan to take out the weather machine Neuroi. Using materials from the KV-2 and surrounding environment, they build an improvised bow made from tree branches, explosive arrows made from sticks capped with shell casings under cloth arrowheads and filled with gunpowder, and combustible canisters made from the propellant case of KV-2 shells filled with aluminum dust and diesel fuel. As Neuroi are made from a hard-but-brittle material, Sadako's plan is to weaken the Neuroi using thermal shock from the aluminum dust explosion of the canisters, then take out its core with the explosive arrows.

=''Wings of Libau'' film poster=
A poster for the upcoming in-universe film ''Libau no Tsubasa'' (Wings of Libau) is seen in the Karibuchi sisters' hometown of Sasebo, said to be a film about the exploits and heroism of Takami Karibuchi during the evacuation of that city in 1941. Many Fuso witches fought in that battle, such as the "Libau Triumvirate" of Mio Sakamoto, Junko Takei, and Yoshiko Nishizawa. Mie Shindou, Takami's future superior officer in the 508th JFW, the Mighty Witches, also served there.

[[Image:BWLibau1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The poster for the film, showing Takami fighting Neuroi alongside a few A6M Reisens. Note that the poster seems to have Takami flying her current N1K striker, ''Chidori'', though at this time she was using an A6M2b, as seen below. (Ep.1)]]

=Vehicle-Mounted & Stationary Weapons=
==Browning .303 Mk II*==
Britannian Seafire Mk IIIs are seen in both the first and final battles of the season, armed with four [[Browning_M1919#Browning_AN.2FM2|Browning .303 Mk II*]] machine guns. Seafires were naval versions of Spitfires, redesigned for use on aircraft carriers, notably featuring tailhooks as well as folding wings for storage.

[[File:BWBrowningMkII2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Moments later, the same Seafire fires its armament as it passes the Neuroi. (Ep.1)]]

==Hispano Mk II==
The Seafires are also armed with a pair of [[Hispano-Suiza HS.404|Hispano Mk II]] cannons, alongside the Browning machine guns.

[[File:Hispano Suiza HS404.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Hispano-Suiza HS.404 - 20x110mm]]

[[File:BWHispanoMkII2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Seafire Mk III firing all six of its guns during the chaos of the battle of Grigori. (Ep.11)]]

==MG 17==
Bf 109 T-1s from Karlsland are armed with a pair of [[MG 17]]s in the engine cowling. In reality, the T-1 was an experimental version of the Bf 109 intended for the subsequently cancelled aircraft carrier ''Graf Zeppelin''. The T-1s were effectively E-4s equipped with a tailhook as well as lengthened wings for a lower stall speed and better handling at low speeds.

[[File:MG 17.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 17 - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==MG FF/M==
The carrier-based Bf 109s are also armed with two [[MG FF|MG FF/M]] cannons in the wings; the MG FF/M was a redesign of the MG FF to allow it to use Minengeschoss ammo.

==Type 97==
A6M3 Reisen fighters that assist Takami Karibuchi in defending the fleet, as well as additional A6M3s that participate in Operation Freyja are armed with two [[Vickers#Type 97 Aircraft Machine Gun|Type 97 aircraft machine guns]] in the engine cowling.

==Type 99 Mark 1==
The A6M3s are also armed with a pair of [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99 Mark 1]] cannons, one in each wing.

[[image:Navy Type 99-1 & 99-2.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Top: Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3 - 20x72mmRB / Bottom: Type 99 Mark 2 Model 3 - 20x101mmRB]]

==Degtyaryov DT-29==
The abandoned KV-2 heavy tank that Hikari, Georgette, and Sadako stumble across is armed with a pair of [[Degtyaryov DP Series Machine Gun#Degtyaryov DT|DT-29]] machine guns, the tank-mounted variant of the DP-27, in addition to its massive 152mm M-10T howitzer. One DT is in a bow gunner position, while the other is mounted in the rear of the turret.

==MG 34 Panzerlauf==
Panzer IV Ausf. G tanks used during the battle to destroy Grigori are armed with a pair of [[MG 34 Panzerlauf]]s, with one for the bow gunner, the other coaxial to the 7.5cm KwK 40 main cannon.

==80cm Kanone (E)==
The pair of [[80 cm Kanone (E)|massive railway cannons]] known as ''Gustav'' and ''Dora'' serve as a key element in the operation to eliminate the Grigori, the Neuroi hive. Specially designed magic-infused shells were developed specifically for this purpose, both a high-explosive type to dissipate Grigori's protective cloud, and an armour-piercing type to eliminate the hive itself. The 80cm Kanone (E)s within the ''World Witches'' universe differ from their real counterparts in two significant ways, being self-propelled, as well as able to traverse the entire superstructure like a turret; the real version had to actually have tracks built facing the exact direction it needed to be fired.

==Bofors 40mm L/60==
The airfield within the Murman port is defended by four twin AA cannons; they appear to be the same style as the oversized twin [[Bofors 40mm|Bofors]] guns seen at the Saint-Trond airbase in other seasons of the series. In our universe, this city now goes by the name Murmansk, however it was originally named Murman upon its founding in 1915, then renamed to Romanov-on-Murman in 1916, but barely half a year later the town was again renamed to Murmansk (erasing reference to the Romanov royal family) in the wake of the Bolshevik revolution. As the revolution never took place in the ''Witches'' universe, the city retains its original name.

==8.8cm FlaK 36==
The Brave Witches' base in Petersburg is defended by numerous [[8.8 cm Flak 18/36/37/41|FlaK 36]] AA guns around its perimeter, and one of them is very notably seen in the ED sequence. A considerable number "eighty-eights" are also present for Operation Freyja.

==Naval Weapons==
Fuso aircraft carriers ''Zuikaku'' and ''Shoukaku'' appear prominently, escorted by four ''Yuugumo''-class destroyers and four ''Akizuki''-class destroyers, respectively; a ''Takao''-class cruiser later joins ''Zuikaku'''s group. A Britannian arctic supply convoy to Murman appears later in the season, consisting of one ''Bellona''-class cruiser, four Type II ''Hunt''-class destroyers, and nine ''Liberty''-class cargo ships. The ''Bellona''-class ship is named ''Odysseus''; while there was no real British ship with this name, the context of it being a ''Bellona''-class in an arctic convoy, and "Odysseus" being the Greek form of "Ulysses" makes it a clear reference to HMS ''Ulysses'', a fictional ''Bellona''-class cruiser featured in the 1955 Alistair MacLean novel of the same name.

The Orussian ''Diana''-class cruiser ''Avrora'' and Fuso battleship ''Iwami'' (formerly the Orussian ''Borodino''-class battleship ''Oryol'') can be seen at the port of Novokholmogory. This pair is a reference to the real-world Battle of Tsushima, a dramatic naval battle during the Russo-Japanese War that resulted in a decisive Japanese victory. ''Avrora'' was one of very few Russian ships to survive the battle (as well as to this day, as a museum ship in Saint Petersburg), while ''Oryol'' was captured by the Japanese and, after a significant rebuild (losing an entire deck, among other changes) was put into Japanese service as the ''Iwami''.

''Brave Witches'' introduces new 3D models for all of its ships, including those that appeared in previous seasons. The two ''Shoukaku''-class carriers are equipped with a defensive AA armament of eight twin [[Type 89 naval gun|12.7cm/40 Type 89]] cannons and sixteen triple 25mm [[Type 96 cannon|Type 96]] autocannons. The ''Takao''-class cruiser features the same primary and secondary armament as its [[Strike Witches 2#Naval Weapons|''Strike Witches 2'']] 3D model, however the 25mm Type 96s feature a slightly different layout; few close-up shots exist this season, but the twin Type 96s either side of the bridge appear as triple-mounts on the ''Brave Witches'' model (likely the case for the other twin-mounts) and it also features at least one pair of single 13.2mm [[Type 93 heavy machine gun|Type 93]] machine guns. The ''Akizuki''-class destroyers also feature similar armament to their ''Strike Witches 2'' model, but with the addition of another pair of triple 25mm Type 96s. The ''Yuugumo''-class destroyers are armed with six 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons in three twin turrets, and two triple Type 96s for anti-air.

The ''Bellona''-class cruiser is armed with eight QF 5.25-inch Mark I cannons in four twin turrets, along with four [[Maxim#Vickers QF 2-pounder|QF 2-pounder Mark VIII]] quadruple autocannons for AA defence. The Type II ''Hunt''-class destroyers are armed with six QF 4-inch Mark XVI cannons in three twin turrets, with one QF 2-pounder Mark VIII quadruple autocannon for anti-air work. The Liberty ships feature the same armament as their [[Strike Witches: Operation Victory Arrow#Naval Weapons|''Operation Victory Arrow'']] model.

''Diana''-class cruiser ''Avrora'' mounts fourteen 152mm/45 Pattern 1892 cannons, with four 75mm/50 Pattern 1892 cannons and one QF 2-pounder Mk II autocannon for some degree of AA protection. Battleship ''Iwami'' retains her original four 305mm/40 Pattern 1895 cannons in two twin turrets as main armament, with six 20.3cm/45 Type 41 cannons in casemate mounts as secondary, six 8cm/40 Type 41 cannons (actually 7.6cm, two in bow casemates) and two 4.7cm/40 Yamauchi Type cannons in stern casemates as tertiary, and no anti-air armament whatsoever.

[[File:BWN3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Miya flies past an ''Akizuki''-class destroyer; four of this class serve as ''Shoukaku'''s escorts.

(Ep.1)]]
[[File:BWN4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|This pair of triple Type 96s either side of the funnel didn't appear on the previous 3D model, though that should be considered a real-world production difference rather than the ships canonically having their AA armament ''downgraded'' after this season. (Ep.1)]]

Luminous Witches

2023-10-07T19:37:48Z

Alex T Snow:

[[Image:Luminous-Witches.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Luminous Witches'' (2022)]]

Five long years after the Neuroi invaded Europe, with setback after setback and loss after loss, humanity's morale is at an all-time low. Determined to continue doing what she can, retired witch Grace Steward has been attempting to get more funding and resources for the Aviation Magic Band, but is making little progress with the disinterested League of Nations Air Force brass. Not willing to give up on her desire to bring some measure of happiness to the war-weary public, Grace sets out to recruit more members for the Band, which will ultimately number nine in addition to herself; the 72nd Joint Fighter Squadron soon earns the name Luminous Witches, and sets out on a world tour.

With a roster of witches who, for a variety of reasons are unable to serve on the frontlines, ''Luminous Witches'' is not as combat-focused as other stories in the ''World Witches'' universe. Instead, the 72nd JFS is effectively a combination of air demonstration squadron (akin to the more modern Red Arrows, Blue Angels, or Snowbirds) and [[Captain America: The First Avenger|USO Tour]], entertaining civilian and military audiences alike with aerobatics and music. The story begins in March, 1944 as Virginia "Ginny" Robertson makes her way to London from her home in rural Scotland, having until then lived a simple farming life without real appreciation for her talents as a witch. The Luminous Witches visit many locations not before seen in the ''Witches'' universe, and encounter many new and established characters during their mission to spread happiness through the power of music. For a world map featuring the Luminous Witches' world tour route, see the [[Talk:Luminous Witches#Luminous Witches World Tour|Talk Page]].

''Luminous Witches'' begins the same month as ''[[Strike Witches]]'' and takes place alongside as well as after that season, then continues parallel the first half of ''[[Brave Witches]]''.

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Tokarev TT-33==
An Orussian officer at the LNAF meeting is seen with a holster for a [[Tokarev TT-33#Tokarev TT-33|Tokarev TT-33]]; the other officers, all of various nations, presumably have their own service pistols as well. The continued existence of the League of Nations is an excellent example of how much of the turmoil and political unrest of the real world 1920s/30s never came to pass in this universe.

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III*==
The [[Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III*]] makes two small appearances, more notably in the hands of a Britannian sentry at RAF Heston, as well as what is most likely also an SMLE slung over the shoulder of a Free Gallian soldier in his recently liberated homeland.

=Machine Guns=
==Browning M1918A2==
In a flashback to Operation Dynamo in 1941, Captain Grace Steward and her two wingmen do what they can to cover the Dunkirk beachhead, armed with [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]]s. As with all witches, Grace is inspired by a real world military aviator; fitting her role in the story, she's based on actor and B-24 Liberator pilot [[James Stewart|James "Jimmy" Stewart]], who would eventually retire as a brigadier general.

[[Image:LWBAR10.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Shards of one more Neuroi falling past, Grace's BAR clicks empty, and the witches head for Britannia. (Ep.1)]]

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
Future Luminous Witches member Lyudmila "Milasha" Ruslanova and other Orussian witches are armed with [[Degtyaryov DP Series Machine Gun#Degtyaryov DP-27/DP-28|DP-27]]s in a flashback. It's also standard issue for Free Gallian witches serving on the Eastern Front, such as Rosalie de La Poype of the 503rd Joint Fighter Wing. This marks the animated debut of the Typhoon Witches, which leaves the 505th Joint Fighter Wing as the last of the eight JFWs to not have an anime appearance thus far; the Mirage Witches feature prominently in the ''Contrail of Witches'' manga.

==MG 42==
The witch-version [[MG 42]], redesigned to use Patronentrommel 34 drum magazines, is held by future Luminous Witches member Aira Linnamaa in another flashback. This flashback was originally captioned as taking place in 1941, which would make the MG 42 anachronistic, however the BD release corrected this to 1942. This correction is further reinforced by official artwork that depicts Aira using a [[Suomi KP/-31|KP/-31]] before this, standard among Suomus witches prior to the MG 42. While the other eight performers are inspired by period singers rather than pilots, Aira is based on a pilot (Aarre Linnamaa) due to her combat experience.

MG 42s are also used by Alexandra Şerbănescu and Ottilie Kittel of the Typhoon Witches, while another is seen in the hands of Yoshika Miyafuji in a scene that parallels the sixth episode of ''Strike Witches''.

==Ho-103==
The [[Ho-103]] appears in the hands of Imperial Fuso Army witches Fumiyo Kawaguchi and Tomomi Nishisugi. Although the Ho-103 has been seen in various manga, used by other Army witches such as Amaki Suwa (who appeared in ''Strike Witches'' and ''Strike Witches 2'', unarmed), this is the gun's first appearance in a ''Witches'' anime. Also of note, Tomomi's appearance in the finale episode's night witch sequence is set a fair bit after sunrise, respecting the time zone difference between Europe and Fuso.

The witch version of the Ho-103 features an added pistol grip, off-hand grip, and ammo box, but is otherwise unmodified.

[[File:Ho103mg.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Ho-103 - 12.7x81mmSR]]

[[Image:LWHo1033.jpg|600px|thumb|none|As the Neuroi is spotted Fumiyo pulls her Ho-103 on target, giving a good look at the underside of the gun, including its added grips for use by witches. (Ep.7)]]
[[Image:LWHo1034.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Fumiyo prepares to open fire with her Ho-103. This miko-style uniform is worn by many IFA witches. (Ep.7)]]
[[Image:LWHo1035.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Night witch Tomomi Nishisugi patrols the peaceful Fuso skies with her Ho-103 and Ki-43 Hayabusa striker; Fumiyo also flies a Ki-43. (Ep.12)]]

The night witches' ability to communicate with each other over extreme distances serves them well, as their solitary patrols would otherwise be a rather lonely affair. (Ep.12)]]

==MG 131==
Waltraud Nowotny of the 503rd JFW is briefly seen flying alongside her fellow squadron members, presumably armed with the [[MG 131]] that she's known to use. Waltraud and the remaining 503rd members not seen in combat (Bronislava Safonov, Huberta von Bonin, and Galina Kostylev) all receive a proper cameo in the final episode.

[[File:MG_131.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 131 - 13x64mmB]]
[[Image:LWMG1311.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Alexandra, Fumiyo, Rosalie, Waltraud, and Ottilie search for the Neuroi, the shot deliberately blurred as a representation of Ginny detecting them over a great distance.

[[Image:LWMG1312.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Official artwork revealing the Typhoon Witches' character designs, for reference. Fumiyo is armed with a [[Nambu Type 14#Type 14 pistol sword|pistol sword built from a Type 14]], a very real design tested by the Japanese in the '20s. This fictional variant appears to have gone through further design iterations, notably featuring a straight pistol grip. (Art)]]

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
The iconic witch variant of the [[Type 99 cannon|Type 99]] makes the smallest of cameos, slung behind Yoshika's back. This scene takes place shortly after the climactic fight in the sixth episode of the first season of ''Strike Witches'', which aired fourteen years previous.

For the rather lengthy technical explanation of the witches' Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai variant, [[Strike Witches#Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai|see its first season entry]].

=Autocannons=
==MG 151/20==
Karlsland night witches Heinrike Prinzessin zu Sayn-Wittgenstein and Heidemarie Schnaufer make an appearance in the finale, armed as usual with [[MG 151|MG 151/20]] cannons.

[[File:Mg15120.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MG 151/20 - 20x82mm]]
[[File:LWMG1511.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Heinrike with her MG 151 while on night patrol over northern Gallia. Prinzessin's night witch antenna fittingly takes the shape of a tiara. (Ep.12)]]
[[File:LWMG1512.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Elsewhere over Gallia or Belgica, Heidemarie's own antenna detects and retransmits the sound of music across the night witches' radio network. (Ep.12)]]

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
Aleksandra Litvyak makes a second cameo in the finale alongside the other night witches, armed with a Fliegerhammer. Based on the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]] and designed by Ursula Hartmann, the Fliegerhammer is a fictional nine-barrel rocket launcher, its heavy firepower a good companion for a night witch. The finale performance taking place on December 26, 1944 puts her in the skies over Petersburg, as she and Eila were visiting the Brave Witches at this time, covered in the ''Brave Witches'' OVA (Episode 7.5). As such, this is almost certainly the same Fliegerhammer Sanya uses in the battle on New Year's Eve later in that same episode.

For additional details, [[Strike Witches#Fliegerhammer|see its first season entry]].

[[Image:LWFH2.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Surprised to hear music on her solitary night flight, Sanya joins her fellow night witches in broadcasting the concert around the world. (Ep.12)]]

=Britannian propaganda poster=
One of many propaganda posters in London features a stylized depiction of a Britannian witch and her rifle. The gun is difficult to identify due to its simplified nature, but it bears resemblance to the [[M1 Carbine]]. Given that the witch is clearly based on Mio Sakamoto (though not in an in-universe sense) it may instead be the Fuso witches' Type 99.

[[File:LWpropaganda1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A stitched shot of the poster, its Britannian witch proudly defending her homeland. (Ep.1)]]

=Vehicle-Mounted & Stationary Weapons=
==Browning .303 Mk II*==
For their world tour the 72nd JFS is assigned a Lancaster Mk I, serial number ''W4113'' and given the squadron code LW-A. The Lancaster is armed with eight [[Browning_M1919#Browning_AN.2FM2|Browning .303 Mk II*]] machine guns, two in the nose turret, two in the dorsal turret, and four in the tail turret. The Luminous Witches' Lancaster is not fresh off the assembly line, but rather a war-weary Lancaster that has seen more than its share of combat missions. The bomber's interior gets a rather notable amount of screen time, serving as the setting for many scenes between concerts, and Grace is often seen manning the aircraft's wireless station.

In reality, Lancaster ''W4113'' served with No. 1661 Heavy Conversion Unit RAF and bore the squadron code GP-J, while "LW" was the squadron code for No. 318 (Polish) Squadron RAF.

[[File:Browning.303.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Browning .303 Mk II* - .303 British]]
[[File:LWBrowningMkII1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Virginia Robertson and Inori Shibuya form up alongside their Lancaster in the opening credits, giving a good look at its dorsal turret.

==Breda-SAFAT 12.7mm machine gun==
During a compilation of most of the characters' assignments before joining the Aviation Magic Band, an airfield in Harwich, Essex is seen serving as the base for the Romagnan 56º Stormo, where Silvie Cariello (or in full, Silvana Adelaide di Carignano) was previously stationed. 56º Stormo being based in Harwich is a reference to the real world Corpo Aereo Italiano, which flew alongside the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain; Harwich and the nearby seaplane base RAF Felixstowe were frequent targets of the CAI.

Several dozen Romagnan fighters are seen at the airbase, and though the specific model of aircraft is uncertain from this distance, due to its ubiquity they are certainly armed with [[Breda-SAFAT machine gun|Breda-SAFAT machine guns]] chambered in 12.7mm. Given their proportionally short wingspan and long fuselage as well as an apparent upper wing, they may be C.R.42 Falco fighters. Entering service in 1939, the C.R.42 was a very modern design despite being a biplane, well-respected as a fighter during the early years of the war; the Falco was indeed flown by 56º Stormo during the Battle of Britain.

[[File:LWBreda-SAFAT1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The airbase in Harwich, with its probable C.R.42 Falcos. Although the Falco would be a bit dated by 1944, this itself fits with Silvie always being stationed away from frontline units due to her heritage. (Ep.1)]]

==Rodman Model 1861==
The final concert of the world tour is held at Fort Jay, a coastal bastion on Governors Island in New York Harbor, built at the turn of the 19th century. Being by this point a historic landmark rather than a legitimate military fortification, Fort Jay retains just five of its [[Rodman Model 1861]] cannons, specifically one 15-inch and four 10-inch guns. After a photo of the fort is shown to the group by Grace, Maria Dietrich gives a brief explanation of Fort Jay, mentioning it has a history going back well over one-hundred years (in 1944). The five preserved Rodman guns at Fort Jay are still present there in the real world today.

[[File:10-inch_Rodman_Model_1861_at_Fort_Jay.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Rodman Model 1861 - 10-inch]]
[[File:LWRodman1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Grace provides an aerial photo of Fort Jay; although a bit grainy, all five Rodman guns can be seen here.

[[File:LWRodman2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Fort Jay, with Manhattan in the distance. The further of the two entrance gate Rodman guns is partially visible hiding behind some grass, while the closer seems mostly obscured. The three guns in the ravelin are out of view on the far side of the fort. (Ep.9)]]

==Naval Weapons==
Only one armed military ship appears this season, the Liberian ''Sangamon''-class escort carrier USS ''Santee'', seen shortly after arriving at Portsmouth Royal Dockyard. She is armed with two 5"/51 Mark 15 cannons for some degree of anti-surface protection, along with four twin [[Bofors 40mm|40mm/56 Mark 1 and Mark 2]] autocannons (Mark 1 being the left-hand gun in the pair, Mark 2 the right) and twelve [[Oerlikon 20mm Cannon|20mm/70 Mark 4]] autocannons for a much more potent anti-air screen. ''Santee'' is home to VF-26, Joanna Stafford's then-current squadron.

[[File:LWN1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|USS ''Santee'' in Portsmouth. One of the twin Bofors mounts overhangs the stern, a 5"/51 is mounted just forward of this about halfway up the hull, six Oerlikons sit amidships along the flight deck, with the other twin Bofors forward of the bridge at flight deck level. This armament is mirrored on the port side of the ship. (Ep.1)]]

Set in an alternate timeline World War II, ''Strike Witches'' focuses on Witches, elite pilots with innate magical ability, who fly Striker Units and fight against the alien Neuroi who have attacked Earth and devastated most of Europe. The existence of magic makes the world inherently different, however most events and history are largely similar until the Great War. During the World War, powerful aliens attacked humanity, interrupting the war; although they were defeated, interruption of the war had lasting effects. Nazi-ism never formed in the Empire of Karlsland (based on Germany), the Bolshevik Revolution never occurred in Orussia (based on Russia), Ostmark (based on Austria-Hungary) still exists in full; also of note is that the Italian unification never occurred, leaving the Duchy of Romagna and Duchy of Venezia both on the Apennine Peninsula. Earth's geography differs slightly as well, notably the coastline of North America, but as a whole the world can be defined as "alternate timeline Earth"; for a world map, see the [[Talk:Luminous Witches#Luminous Witches World Tour|''Luminous Witches'' Talk Page]].

In 1937, the Neuroi attacked the Empire of Fuso (based on Japan), but thanks largely to the next generation of striker units and the witches flying them, the Neuroi were repulsed. In 1939, several Neuroi hives formed over Europe, obliterating cities, killing thousands, and forcing humanity to retreat. Much like the real world Fall of Europe in 1939/40, humanity's last free bastion in Europe became the Commonwealth of Britannia (based on Britain), a safe haven only because Neuroi are averse to crossing bodies of water. Given this context, humanity's countries are not at war with each other, but united to defend against the Neuroi, and as such witches and other military members from all nations work and fight alongside one another.

The story of ''Strike Witches'' picks up in early 1944, when Yoshika Miyafuji, due to her extremely strong magical ability, is recruited to by Squadron Leader Mio Sakamoto of the Imperial Fuso Navy to become a witch. The first season introduces the world and setting of the series, and follows Yoshika's struggles to become a witch in the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, known as the Strike Witches. The 501st JFW's base is located in Folkestone Harbour, which in the real world was an important strategic port, especially notable for its involvement in the Dunkirk evacuation. All witches in the series are based on real world WWII fighter pilots, those details noted for each character as they come up on this page.

In chronological order, ''Strike Witches'' runs parallel to ''[[Luminous Witches]]'' and is followed by ''[[Brave Witches]]'', both of which are set before ''[[Strike Witches 2]]''.

__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Walther PPK==
A [[Walther PPK]] is issued to Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji (inspired by Japanese ace Kaneyoshi Mutou) when she first arrives in Britannia, however she refuses the pistol, stating a dislike for guns. To explain Yoshika's mindset, Yoshika's father, Ichiro Miyafuji (inspired by Jiro Horikoshi, chief designer of many WWII Japanese aircraft) worked on and perfected the striker units the witches use, but he was killed in an accident in his lab in the late '30s, and as such Yoshika, a young civilian in Fuso away from the war, always saw the conflict as little more than a terrible, far away thing that stole her father from her. Yoshika accepts Mio's offer to come to Europe on the condition that she simply wants to help people, however Yoshika fairly quickly learns that to help the most people, one must fight the Neuroi. Although she initially turned down the PPK, official artwork shows Yoshika using a [[Mauser C96#Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|Mauser M712]] machine pistol as her sidearm sometime before the end of the first season.

Wing Commander Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke of Karlsland (inspired by German ace Wolf-Dietrich Wilcke) uses an identical PPK, which she either keeps on her person or pulled out for the occasion she is seen using it. It's possible it's issued to all new witches of the 501st, but it's not seen otherwise.

=Submachine Guns=
==Sten Mk II==
[[Sten Mk II]] submachine guns are used by Britannian troops under the command of Air Chief Marshall Trevor Maloney, ordering the 501st JFW be disbanded, intent on replacing witches with his new mechanized Warlock aircraft/mech. Maloney and his actions are directly inspired by Air Vice-Marshal Trafford Leigh-Mallory, and Leigh-Mallory's similar political moves during the Battle of Britain.

[[Image:SWSTEN1.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Britannian soldiers hold their Stens behind Maloney. The 501st's base is inspired by the island of Mont Saint-Michel, though it sits just off the coast of Folkestone, on the opposite side of the English Channel from the real world island. (Ep.10)]]

=Rifles=
==Boys Mk I*==
Flight Sergeant Lynette Bishop of Britannia uses a [[Boys anti-tank rifle|Boys Mk I*]] with the bipod removed in her role as the 501st's designated marksman. Lynette, along with her older sister Wilma, are inspired by the children of WWI Canadian ace Billy Bishop, William and Margaret Bishop, both of whom served in WWII, William as a Spitfire pilot. While Lynette is purely Britannian, in a reversal of the Bishop sisters' inspiration Wilma enlisted and serves in the Faraway Land Air Force (Canada, but name inspired by Newfoundland). Wilma does not appear in the anime, but is the protagonist of the ''One-Winged Witches'' manga, which follows the Isle of Wight Detachment Group.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk 1 (M)==
A [[Bren gun|Bren Mk 1 (M)]] is carried by Flying Officer Pierrette-Henriette "Perrine" Clostermann (inspired by French ace Pierre Henri Clostermann) of Gallia (France). She would prefer to use an [[Chatellerault Light Machine Gun|FM 24/29]], but uses the much more common (in Britannia) Bren due to Gallia being occupied by the Neuroi. The gun's bipod has been removed due to being entirely unnecessary for an airborne witch, and its sling is attached in an unusual manner; the front end is attached to where the bipod legs used to connect, while the rear is attached to where the rear grip used to exist on the previous Mk 1 version of the Bren. This method of attaching the sling is consistently depicted this way in all later ''Witches'' series content as well.

==Browning M1918A2==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle#M1918A2 Browning Automatic_Rifle|Browning Automatic Rifle]], with its bipod removed (this is a trend), is the preferred weapon of Flight Lieutenant Charlotte Elwyn "Shirley" Yeager of the United States of Liberion. Naturally, Charlotte is inspired by American ace (and later test pilot) Charles Elwood "Chuck" Yeager, while the USL is inspired by the United States of America. Shirley, ever the mechanic and tinkerer, isn't especially impressed with her BAR, but appreciates its durability despite its other drawbacks.

[[Image:SWBAR1919.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte and Francesca train against Yoshika and Perrine in a mock battle. Note that (as with most strikers based on aircraft with inline engines) the P-51 striker's "airplane" element is "backwards", with the fuselage cutoff behind the cockpit for the witch's legs to enter. The wings, air intakes, exhaust (etc) are all turned back around to face the correct way, while the propeller stays where it "should be" on the fuselage. Strikers based on aircraft with ''radial'' engines (as used by Yoshika and Mio) face the opposite way, keeping the entire fuselage, moving the propeller and exhaust to just before the tail, and having the witch's legs enter where the engine would be. (Ep.9)]]
[[Image:SWBARMG421.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte looks back in surprise as Yoshika gets the drop on her. Note the training-version BAR, with all its metal parts coloured orange to denote that it fires paint rounds. (Ep.9)]]

[[Image:SWBAR4.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte, Francesca, and the Karlsland trio look at the absolutely massive Neuroi hive over Gallia. (Ep.10)]]
[[Image:SWBAR5.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Charlotte and company join up with Yoshika during the final battle. Witches' legs do not actually fit inside their strikers, but rather phase into a pocket dimension / "hammerspace", as the majority of space inside striker units houses their piston-driven, magic-fuelled engines. The ability to store witches' legs in a pocket dimension was the major breakthrough by Yoshika's father; striker units before this required separate magic engines worn as backpacks, which were drastically more bulky and inefficient. (Ep.12)]]

==Browning M1919A6==
The [[Browning M1919A6]] is carried by Pilot Officer Francesca Lucchini (inspired by Italian ace Franco Lucchini) of Romagna. It was given to her by Charlotte, her best friend and combat partner, after Francesca misplaced the Romagnan weapons she had brought to Britannia with her. Francesca states that she likes the gun because of its high rate of fire, durability, and high ammo capacity. To allow witches to use it while flying, the M1919A6 has been modified with a fixed ammo box, with a handle on top she sometimes uses to hold the gun in a hipfire position.

This is an excellent look at how the custom ammo box works; the shelf underneath is permanently attached to the gun, while the box inside it with the handle on top is removable, and held in place by that metal catch on the side. (Ep.9)]]

[[Image:SW19198.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Francesca lets loose her signature move: Stacking a whole bunch of shields together and plowing through stuff. It's super effective. (Ep.12)]]

==MG 42==
The [[MG 42]] is used by the members of the 501st from Karlsland and Suomus (Finland). While Minna and Flying Officer Erica Hartmann (inspired by German ace Erich Hartmann) use a single gun, Flight Lieutenant Gertrud Barkhorn (inspired by German ace Gerhard Barkhorn) prefers dual wielding MG 42s thanks to her increased strength ability (on top of all witches having more strength as a baseline). Flying Officer Eila Ilmatar Juutilainen (inspired by Finnish ace Eino Ilmari Juutilainen) of Suomus also uses the MG 42. Eila's magical trait of short-term precognition allows her to effortlessly dodge enemy fire, to the degree that she's never used a magic shield, the staple of every other witch's combat abilities; this trait is inspired by her namesake having never been hit by enemy fire, despite being the highest scoring non-German ace in history.

All witches' MG 42s in the series are modified to use a stylized version of the 75-round Patronentrommel 34 drum magazine from the [[MG34|MG 34]]; given the slightly different design it presumably has its own designation in-universe, perhaps "Patronentrommel 42", though that's speculation. Use of a magazine rather than a belt is likely because it's far easier for an airborne witch to simply swap a magazine than deal with replacing a belt in mid-air; this sort of fictional-but-entirely-plausible weapon design appears for several notable weapons in the ''World Witches'' universe. Additionally, along with lacking a bipod like most witch weapons, the ''World Witches'' MG 42 features only four holes in the gun's muzzle booster (as opposed to twelve), its muzzle flash reflecting this throughout the series.

(Ep.8)]]

Kurt enlisted in the Army and worked in the maintenance division of Minna's squadron, so they could spend more time together. This would ultimately keep them apart forever, as Kurt remained behind to help evacuate the base in Calais, but never made it out himself. Minna's forbidding of witches to interact with male personal, and intense, panic-inducing aversion to the possibility of losing anyone close to her are rooted in this loss. (Ep.8)]]

==Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai==
A fictional iteration of the [[type 99 cannon|Type 99]] aircraft cannon in its flexible mount configuration is the standard armament for Fuso Empire witches. This iconic ''World Witches'' series weapon is a fictional iteration of a real world weapon, much like the iteration of the MG 42 that can use MG 34 drum magazines, and the M1919A6's fixed ammo box, but on a more substantial scale. It is used by both Yoshika Miyafuji and Mio Sakamoto (inspired by Japanese ace Saburou Sakai).

There are two versions of the real world Type 99 cannon, the Mark 1 and the Mark 2; the Mark 1 uses a 20x72mmRB round, while the Mark 2 was the same design scaled up to use a 20x101mmRB round. To further complicate matters, these two related guns also had their own variants, resulting in designations like "Type 99 Mark 1 Model 3" or "Type 99 Mark 2 Model 5". One variant of the Type 99 Mark 1 was outfitted for use in flexible mounts, giving it AA sights, a handguard, flash suppressor, stock pad, large ejection chute on top, and (crude) pistol grip.

Back in the ''World Witches'' universe, the need for witches to have an effective primary weapon arose, and so the '''Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai''', or Type 99 Mark 2 Model 2 Kai, was developed. Either translation is acceptable; the former is the official ''World Witches'' translation, the latter is the same designation using the established Western terms for the Type 99 family.

While the "Type 99-2" designation should mean it's based on the larger Mark 2 in 20x101mmRB, the gun's proportions and size are very clearly that of the smaller Mark 1. The Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai takes the infantry-rifle-like traits of the flexible mount Type 99 Mark 1 variant and improves them. The notable improvements from the flexible mount design are a more traditionally-shaped receiver, deletion of the top ejection chute in favour of a traditional side-mounted ejection port, and a traditional pistol grip assembly; in short, it was developed into a practical rifle-style weapon, albeit a very large and heavy one. In addition to the physical/mechanical improvements, while the original Type 99-2 Model 2 Kai prototypes were in the original 20x101mmRB cartridge (despite visually being based on the Mark 1), tests showed it was a bit too powerful to be practical, even for witches. As such, it was rechambered for the 13.2x96mm Hotchkiss cartridge, also used in the [[Ho-103|Type 3 aircraft machine gun]].

Additionally, on the design sketch of the Type 99 seen below there is a line of text inside a box, pointing to the rear end of the long tube on the left side of the receiver; this text translates to "load the first bullet by pressing this button", meaning that's the charging "button". However, the charging button isn't actually used on-screen until ''[[Strike Witches: The Movie]]''.

=Launchers=
==Fliegerhammer==
The Fliegerhammer is a fictional multi-barrel rocket launcher used by Flying Officer Aleksandra Vladimirovna "Sanya" Litvyak (inspired by Russian ace Lydia Vladimirovna Litvyak) of Orussia. The Fliegerhammer, or "Flyer/Plane Hammer", was designed by Erica Hartmann's twin sister and genius engineer Ursula Hartmann (named for Erich Hartmann's wife, Ursula Paetsch), and inspired by (both in-universe and from a writing standpoint) the [[Luftfaust|Fliegerfaust]]. Like the Fliegerfaust, the Fliegerhammer is a nine-barrel, unguided rocket launcher, though Sanya and some other witches are able to guide or partially guide the rockets with their magic. The launcher's large, boxy shape is also reminiscent of the more modern [[M202 FLASH]].

The Fliegerhammer is capable of firing in two modes, either single rockets sequentially, in which case the rockets launch by row top-to-bottom, within rows right-to-left, or in a volley fire setting where four rockets fire in a "+" shape, followed a fraction of a second later by the remaining five in a "×" shape; the design artwork below lists the delay as "4 to 6 frames" (as it's animation reference material) which equates to a roughly 0.2 second delay before the second salvo. The fire mode is controlled by a selector switch on the pistol grip; the vertical position is volley fire, the rearward position is single fire. The rear offhand grip and shoulder rest fold flush with the body of the weapon when not in use. The Fliegerhammer is reusable, with rockets loaded by inserting them into the rear.

==Naval Weapons==
In addition to ''Akagi'', the Imperial Fuso Navy fleet that carries Mio and Yoshika to Britannia also consists of eight ''Kagerou''-class destroyers. Specifically, these are the ships of 16th Destroyer Division (''Yukikaze'', ''Amatsukaze'', ''Hatsukaze'', ''Tokitsukaze'') and 17th Destroyer Division (''Urakaze'', ''Isokaze'', ''Hamakaze'', ''Tanikaze''). The carrier is fitted with six 20cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons in casemate mounts, six twin [[Type 10 naval gun|12cm/45 Type 10]] anti-air cannons and fourteen twin 25mm [[Type 96 cannon|Type 96]] anti-air cannons along either side of the flight deck, and a pair of single 7.7mm [[Lewis Gun#Type 92|Type 92]] machine guns fore and aft of the bridge. The destroyers are equipped with four 12.7cm/50 3rd Year Type cannons in two twin turrets as their primary armament, as well as twenty-nine 25mm Type 96 AA guns, fourteen in single mounts and fifteen in five triple mounts.

Alex T Snow:

The '''Sten''' (technically an acronym for Reginald '''S'''hephard, Harold '''T'''urpin and '''En'''field but usually written as if it were a proper noun in the same manner as [[Bren gun|Bren]]) is a British designed submachine gun manufactured in a number of variants (know as ''Mark''s or simply ''Mk''s) during the Second World War. The official designation was "Carbine, Machine, Sten" which is due to the British term for what we would now call submachine guns being "Machine Carbine" at the start of the war (submachine gun was at the time regarded as an American term, as it had originated with the [[Thompson Submachine Gun]]). It was notable for its very simple design and consequently low production costs which made it an ideal weapon for supplying resistance groups: the relatively uncomplicated construction meant it could also be manufactured in occupied territories without specialised machine tools. In total approximately 4.5 million Stens were produced, over 2 million of which were the Mark II, which is the iconic Sten gun.

The suppressed version of the Mk II, the Mk II (S), hugely impressed SS officer Otto Skorzeny, who went to great lengths to acquire one. By his own account, the weapon was so quiet that he demonstrated it by leading a group of officers through an empty park at night, and having one of his men approach from behind and unload an entire magazine into the air, with the officers not believing a weapon had been fired until they were shown the shell casings on the ground. His substantial efforts to get the Nazi high command to start mass-producing the Sten proved fruitless, however.

Using the same magazines as the [[MP 38]], the Sten is subject to similar errors; the common habit in fiction of using the magazine as a sidegrip would in real life result in damage to the feed lips of the magazine (the correct part of the gun to grip is either the barrel shroud, the magwell, or the sloped section below the gun ahead of the trigger guard), and the videogame habit of fully loading the magazine would result in spring failures; like the [[MP 40]], soldiers experienced in using the Sten would typically load magazines with 30 or 28 rounds rather than 32. The 50 round [[Lanchester Mk. I]] magazine is compatible with the Sten.

==Sten Mk II(S)==
[[File:Sten MKII strutt.jpg|thumb|right|350px|Sten Mk II(S) - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:StenMKIISilenced.jpg|thumb|right|351px|Sten Mk II(S) (Canadian) - 9x19mm]]

The Sten Mk II(S) was a covert ops variant with an extremely effective integral suppressor developed at the request of the British Special Operations Executive by Major Hugh Reeves, who would go on to design the [[Welrod Pistol]]. The suppressor used a ported barrel and the recoil spring was shortened and the bolt lightened to ensure reliable function. The S stands for "special purpose" rather than "silenced" as one might expect. It was developed after the failure of attempts early in the war to produce a suppressed [[Thompson Submachine Gun]], and was issued to Commando units and other special forces groups. It was first used by frontline SOE units in in Europe in 1943, and also saw use in the Far East.

While the suppressor became extremely hot with prolonged firing (hence the cloth grip) and would be effectively ruined by running a single magazine through it in full-auto, it was highly effective if fire was restricted to short bursts. As mentioned at the top of the page, SS officer Otto Skorzeny went to great lengths to acquire one, and is known to have stated "What splendid possibilities the use of these silencers offered. What losses they might save and what dangers they might avert! How wonderful, in case of an unexpected meeting with an enemy detachment, to be able to fire without the reports attracting the attention of other enemy groups!" In German use, captured Mk II(S) Stens received the designation "MP751(e)."

While it was officially declared obsolete by the British Army in 1945, the Mk II(S) and Mk VI(S) continued to be used, turning up during counter-insurgency operations in Malaya and Kenya during the 60s. The Mk II(S) was also used by both the Australian SAS and American MACV-SOG during the Vietnam War, and was not actually removed from British Special Forces inventories until suppressed variants of the [[Heckler & Koch MP5]] were adopted in the 1980s.

The '''MP 3008''', also known as the "Volksmaschinenpistole" (people's machine pistol), was a German submachine gun developed towards the end of WWII. It was essentially a copy of the Sten Mk II, but with a vertical magazine. Due to the poor state of German manufacturing towards the end of the war, and the fact that the MP 3008 was manufactured in various smaller factories and machine shops, there was a lot of variation in terms of the materials and design of the weapon's furniture - it could be found with a skeleton wire stock, a strut stock, a strut stock with a wooden pistol grip, and finally a fully wooden stock.

==Viper Machine Carbine==
[[File:Viper Mk I.JPG|thumb|right|350px|Viper Mk I - 9x19mm]]

The '''Viper Machine Carbine''' was an experimental bullpup version of the Sten that was intended to be used as a one-handed personal defense weapon. The Mk I version of the Viper was designed in 1942 and intended for motorcycle messengers. Built from Sten Mk. III parts and encased in a hollow wooden clamshell, the Mk I would be held by the user underneath the shoulder. As such it possessed no iron sights, or a fire selector for that matter. Only two examples of the Mk I was built. A Mk II version was designed in 1943 but not built; the 1945 Mk III featured a radically different design, being redesigned from the ground up and having more conventional features such as iron sights and a stock. It was intended for military police in Occupied Germany, but only three were built before ultimately being rejected.
