''Deadhunt'' is a downloadable indie video game that came out way before the popular "zombie" first-person shooter trend seen in video games like ''[[Left 4 Dead]]'' or ''[[Killing Floor]]''. The player's only task was to stay alive as much as possible while the computer threw continuous waves of zombies at them.

'''The following weapons make an appearance in the video game ''Deadhunt'':'''
__TOC__ 

== IMI/Magnum Research Desert Eagle Mark XIX ==
Although (as in most FPS games) the [[Desert Eagle#Desert Eagle Mark XIX|Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] is not the default pistol in the game, the player can collect it via power-ups in most levels. It is chambered in .50AE and it destroys most zombies with a single shot. It incorrectly holds 10 rounds in the magazine, while the real Mark XIX can hold only 7.
[[Image:DesertEagle50AE.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Desert Eagle Mark XIX - .50AE]]
[[Image:d eagle 50ae.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Mark XIX in the game. The absence of the fluted barrel indicates that this can be only the .50AE variant.]]‎

== IMI Micro Uzi ==
The [[Micro Uzi]] is the standard sidearm of the game. The gun seems to have a barrel extension attached in front of the muzzle. The stock remains folded throughout the entire game (cannot be unfolded). It has a very high rate of fire and the magazine holds 50 rounds. While 50-round magazines do exist, in-game the weapon seems to have the more common 30-round magazine. The player fires this weapon sideways 'gangsta-style', which in real life would have questionable accuracy.
[[Image:MicroUziPistolStock.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Micro Uzi - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:micro uzi.jpg|thumb|none|500px|In-game Micro Uzi SMG.]]‎

== Pancor Jackhammer ==
The [[Pancor Jackhammer]] is a fully automatic combat shotgun in the game. It holds the same amount of ammo (10 rounds) as in the real model. The game portrays the function principles of the shotgun accurately by showing the barrel of the gun recoiling back and forth inside the weapon's receiver. In the game it seems to fire 00 buckshots. The Jackhammer is particularly effective against large crowds.
[[Image:Jackhammer.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Pancor Jackhammer combat shotgun - 12 ga.]]
[[Image:jackhammer2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Jackhammer shotgun in the game.]]‎

==Mossberg 500 Cruiser ==
The [[Mossberg 500 Cruiser]] is the second 12-gauge shotgun in the game. This model has a heat shield and pistol grip. In-game it seems to fire 00 buckshots. Devastating in close quarters, holds 8 rounds. The gun has rifle sights. The shell ejection port is on the left side of the weapon.
[[Image:Mossberg500Cruiser.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Mossberg 500 Cruiser - 12 ga.]]
[[Image:mossy500.jpg|thumb|none|500px|In-game Mossberg 500.]]‎

==M60 General Purpose Machine Gun==
While the [[M60]] holds 100 rounds of 7.62mm caliber and is capable of fully automatic fire, the player is slowed down by the bulk of the weapon. Also it takes a lot of time to reload. The bipod is permanently folded throughout the game.
[[Image:M60.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M60 GPMG - 7.62x51mm NATO]]‎
[[Image:m60II.jpg|thumb|none|500px|In-game M60 GPMG.]]‎

==Steyr IWS 2000 Sniper Rifle==
The sniper rifle of the game. Contrary to common practice, the gun lacks a scope, instead it has a laser sight mounted in its place. This makes no sense since this is a very heavy sniping rifle, dedicated for long range neutralization of enemy material, not personnel. The weapon is still in prototype development. It holds 5 rounds, just like the real counterpart.

[[Image:steyr iws2000.jpg|thumb|none|500px|In-game IWS 2000 Sniper Rifle.]]‎

== Heckler & Koch HK33 ==
The standard 5.56 rifle of the game is the not very common [[HK33]]. One burst is usually enough to dispatch a single zombie. The magazine holds 30 rounds. The gun itself seems to be an early variant, due to the also early MP5-style handguard, which was later abandoned on both guns. The 'S-E-F' fire selector markings can be clearly seen.

DevaKitty:

You guys know that there is no such thing as the "Wachowski Brothers" anymore since Larry became Lana, right? I think this page should be changed from "Wachowski Brothers" to "Lana and Andy Wachowski", as on IMDb. [[User:Bozitojugg3rn4ut|bozitojugg3rn4ut]] 09:26, 26 May 2011 (CDT)

:I think "The Wachowskis" as on Wikipedia is less awkward. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 09:29, 26 May 2011 (CDT)

:Ewwwww. Notice that in Lana's bio, IMDB rather coyly NEVER MENTIONS that he/she/it had a sex change operation. The entire Bio is a mess of gender identifiers with no reference as to how a "she" can be the brother of someone."''Estranged wife Thea Bloom was her (Wachowski's) college sweetheart. She (Wachowski) left Bloom in 2002 for Karin Winslow, a professional dominatrix, who left her husband to take Wachowski on as her "slave.".''" Uh. Right. This guy/gal/whatever is a real winner ....... ;) [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 11:09, 26 May 2011 (CDT)

Wait, what? [[User:BeardedHoplite|BeardedHoplite]] 12:01, 26 May 2011 (CDT)

== Why is this still "The Wachowski Brothers"? ==

Lana is not a man, this really should be changed. Also MoviePropMaster2008, she's a woman, try not to be so transphobic. -QueenSasha24

Hey about this, "Lana Wachowski" and "Lilly Wachowski" do no redirect to this page when searched for, while their deadnames do. We should probably fix that, as well as make any mention of their names synonymous with this page, because as it is now, I edited The Matrix page to fix their names, but they're a red link because neither of their names are psuedonyms for links with this page. --[[User:DevaKitty|DevaKitty]] ([[User talk:DevaKitty|talk]]) 14:22, 4 July 2021 (EDT)

Okay I found a workaround to the red link situation, but we should still make this synonymous with their names. --[[User:DevaKitty|DevaKitty]] ([[User talk:DevaKitty|talk]]) 14:27, 4 July 2021 (EDT)

'''''The Matrix''''' is the 1999 science fiction film starring [[Keanu Reeves]] as a lowly office worker and underground computer hacker known as "Neo", who discovers that his entire world is not what it seems. The groundbreaking movie was directed by [[The Wachowskis]], who would continue the story in two sequels released in 2003: ''[[The Matrix Reloaded]]'' and ''[[The Matrix Revolutions]]''.

{{Film Title|The Matrix}}

__TOC__ 
{{spoiler}}

=Pistols=
==Glock 17==
In the opening scene, the police officers who conduct the raid on Trinity's ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) hideout use [[Glock 17|Glock 17]] pistols as their sidearms. Due to a continuity error, Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) also switches from a [[Zastava CZ99]] to a Glock 17 during the "deja vu" scene when Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]) grabs him through the wall. Later in the film, the soldiers whom Neo and Trinity confront during the lobby and rooftop shootouts at the Agent-controlled building also seem to carry Glock 17s in their hip holsters.

What is notable is that the Glock 17s used in ''[[The Matrix]]'' are 3rd Generation models, which were brand-new at the time the film was shot (1998). To the best of IMFDB's knowledge, ''The Matrix'' is the first film ever to feature the 3rd Generation Glock pistols, beating ''[[End of Days]]'' into theaters by eight months.

[[Image:TheMatrix-G17-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An officer holds his Glock 17 in the opening scene of the film. Though the image is dark, it is possible to see the accessory rail on the dust cover, identifying this Glock 17 as a 3rd Generation model.]]

[[Image:MatrixGlock17-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Trinity forces one officer to kill his own comrade with his Glock.]]
[[Image:TheMatrix-G17-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|During the "deja vu" scene, Neo holds a Glock 17, which replaces the CZ99 he was using previously. It is likely that this is a rubber Glock that was used for stunt work because the armorer was not able to bring a rubber CZ99 to the set for filming.]]

==IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The Agents, including Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]), famously carry [[Desert Eagle|IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] pistols, chambered in .50 Action Express, as their sidearms throughout the movie. The Desert Eagle was specifically chosen by the Wachowski brothers as the Agents' sidearm-of-choice, against the advice of armorer John Bowring, who dismissed them as "wanker" pistols.

[[Image:MatrixDesertEagle-8.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Smith shoots Neo with his Desert Eagle about a dozen times, despite only holding 7 rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber; also, no Agent is ever seen reloading. However, given his status as a computer program in a virtual environment, one wonders why the Matrix hadn't programmed the gun with infinite ammo.]]
[[Image:MatrixDesertEagle-9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Here we see the Desert Eagle cycling through crimped blank cartridges.]]

==Beretta 84FS Cheetah==
Trinity ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) carries a pair of [[Beretta Cheetah|Beretta 84FS Cheetah]]s as her sidearms in the film. These were selected because Moss has small hands and full sized Beretta 92Fs would be gigantic in her hands. What is interesting to note is that besides the Micro Uzi used in the beginning of the lobby scene, this is the only gun that Trinity feels she needs to bring into a building guarded by three agents. Meanwhile, Neo packs about a dozen guns and a bomb.
[[Image:Beretta-Cheetah.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Beretta 84FS Cheetah - .380 ACP]]

Note the forward curve on the grips and the frame mounted safeties. The size difference between the 84FS and 92FS is not that visible when tucked into a belt like this.]]

==Zastava CZ99==
Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) gives Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) his [[Zastava CZ99]] pistol as they try to escape an Agent-led SWAT attack after visiting the Oracle. The weapon is a CZ99 and ''not'', as has been written previously, a [[SIG-Sauer P228]]; some of the weapons rental invoice documents published on Propstore.com have confirmed this. The CZ99 is a Yugoslavian-made pistol which is based on the [[SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series|P220 series]], but is actually a very different weapon.
[[Image:Cz99-1.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Zastava CZ99 - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixCZ99-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo fires his Zastava CZ99 at the SWAT team through the wall.]]

==Beretta 92FS==
Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) takes at least two pair of [[Beretta 92FS]] pistols with him on his mission to save Morpheus ([[Laurence Fishburne]]). While it may seem ridiculous to carry several copies of the same gun, it would be faster to drop the pistols when empty and pull out "fresh" ones than it would be trying to reload them, particularly when dual-wielding, as Neo does in the film. Also, such practice would have a rich precedent in the flintlock era, when bandits or pirates were known to carry up to six loaded one-shot pistols into battle.
[[Image:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixBeretta92FS-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Empty Berettas are seen on the ground next to Neo.]]
[[Image:MatrixBeretta92FS-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo holds his empty Beretta on Agent Smith. For some strange reason it locks empty at the same time as Agent Smith's Desert Eagle, despite the Beretta holding over twice the amount of rounds (15 versus 7). Also note that the serial number (073822) is visible on the frame. According to the [http://www.berettasupport.com/applications/tech_data/schematics_results_new.php Beretta customer support web site], this weapon is a Beretta 92FS (as opposed to a 92F) with 3-dot sights that was manufactured in 1998 and sold with two ten-round magazines.]]

==Browning Hi-Power==
Switch ([[Belinda McClory]]) is seen carrying a silver chrome [[Browning Hi-Power]] with adjustable sights in 9mm caliber as her weapon of choice. She is first seen using it in the car to hold Neo at gunpoint and keep still while Trinity removes the "bug" the Agents planted in him, then using it to lay down cover fire along with Apoc while the others escape the SWAT team, taking out several SWAT members in the process.

[[Image:MatrixBrowningHP-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|While the muzzle diameter looks large, it is just the large barrel bushing that is seen on Hi-Powers after 1973 and before the Mark III series. The lack of light hides the actual barrel from sight.]]

=Revolvers=
==Smith & Wesson Model 10 Heavy Barrel==
A lobby guard tries to pull a 3" heavy barreled [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] before Trinity shoots him.

[[Image:MatrixS&W10HB-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The guard turns to shoot Trinity but is mowed down.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Micro Uzi==
During the lobby scene, Neo and Trinity both use [[Micro Uzi]]s with bent trigger guards, Trinity using one to kill one of the first guards and Neo using two to keep the soldiers behind cover.
[[Image:MicroUzi-2.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Micro Uzi with bent trigger guard and folding stock - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:MatrixMicroUzi-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Trinity empties a magazine from her Micro Uzi into the last lobby guard. In reality, firing a Micro Uzi with one hand would make it very hard to control.]]

[[Image:MatrixMicroUzi-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo breaks cover and fires his Micro Uzis at the soldiers. Note the bent trigger guard.]]

==Cobray M11/9==
Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) carries a [[Cobray M11/9]] converted to full-auto with a thread protector, and is seen using it to lay down cover fire while he and the others are fleeing in the SWAT team attack. It can be identified as a Cobray M11/9 and not an original Ingram MAC-10 because of the elongated rear receiver.
[[Image:M11 2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Cobray M11/9 - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixCobrayM119-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good shot of the elongated receiver.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
In the lobby scene, Neo uses a pair of [[Heckler & Koch MP5K]]s to eliminate the first set of guards.
[[Image:MP5K-SEF.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5K - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixMP5K-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo firing his MP5Ks.]]

==Sa vz. 61 Skorpion (.22 LR)==
Neo fires a pair of [[Sa vz. 61 Skorpion]] sub-machine guns fitted with muzzle shrouds during the lobby shootout. Due to the shape of the magazines, this should be the .22 LR version (possibly, converted to full-auto). The cartridge cases falling from the guns are inaccurately shown as 5.56x45mm shells, which are far larger than .22 LR or .32 ACP rounds.
[[File:Vz61P22.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sa vz. 61 Pistol - .22 LR]]
[[Image:MatrixWalkingArsenal-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo shows the lobby guard his walking arsenal, with his Skorpion SA Vz 61s hanging on his legs.]]

[[Image:MatrixSkorpionSA-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The empty cases falling from the guns are inaccurately shown as 5.56x45mm shells, which are far larger than pistol rounds. Also, the rounds fall too far directly under the guns, while a Skorpion's ejection port sends the spent shells up and to the right. Since the cases look like real shells and not blanks, it can be assumed they just dropped handfuls of shells to get the effect.]]
[[Image:MatrixSkorpionSA-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo firing his Skorpions.]]

=Assault Rifles=
==M16 (SP1)==
In the lobby shootout scene where Neo and Trinity encounter the security guard's "back-up" in the form of a unit of Army soldiers, the majority of the soldiers Neo and Trinity face up against are armed with [[M16 rifle series#M16 Rifle|M16 (SP1)]] rifles with slab-side receivers. The M16s used in this scene are a mixture of rifles with 3-prong flash hiders and rifles with [[M16A1]]-style "birdcage" flash hiders. Neo uses two of these M16s during this scene, one while cartwheeling across the lobby, another while on the roof.

==Leader Dynamics T2 MK5==
During the "deja vu" shootout, the SWAT officers are armed with Australian-made [[T2 MK5 assault rifle|Leader Dynamics T2 MK5]] short-barreled assault rifles. Although the weapons are rarely shown clearly on screen, the identity of the weapons has been confirmed by the rental invoices from [http://www.propstore.com Propstore], which [http://www.propstore.com/product/matrix-the/aaa-leader-t2-mk5-police-tactical-carbine-prop/ also has one of the rubber T2 MK5 carbines on sale]. The versions used in ''The Matrix'' are the "Commando" version which have 11.5-inch barrels; the weapons are also fitted with a custom-made forearm designed to hold both a tactical flashlight and laser sight. The use of an Australian weapon in this case makes sense, as most of the movie was filmed in Sydney, Australia.

[[Image:TheMatrix-LeaderT2-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A SWAT officer is seen left holding a Leader Dynamics T2 MK5. Note that this rifle, like the other T2 MK5s in the scene, is fitted with a 20-round magazine.]]

[[Image:TheMatrix-LeaderT2-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A close-up of the muzzle of the T2 MK5, showing the distinctive front sight of the Leader Dynamics-series rifles. Notice that this particular carbine has both a standard tactical light fitted into the forearm on the right side of the weapon, and an additional, much brighter torch that is fitted to the left side and secured with electrical tape wrapped around the barrel and forearm. Why this guy needs two flashlights on his rifle is a mystery.]]
[[Image:MatrixAAA-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|SWAT officers prepare to fire their T2 MK5s at the protagonists.]]

=Shotguns=
==Mouse's Automatic Shotguns==
The unusual pair of large guns that Mouse ([[Matt Doran]]) uses are custom-built cam-operated electric driven [[(The Matrix) - Mouse's Shotguns|automatic 12 gauge shotguns]] with 25-shell cylinders and a fire rate of 900 rounds per minute. They were crafted by John Bowring, lead armorer of the film. As an inside joke, Bowring named the guns "Andy" (serial no. A1169 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet Leetspeak] for Andy) and "Larry" (serial no.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
In the lobby shootout scene, a number of soldiers are armed with [[Franchi SPAS-12]] shotguns, one of which is commandeered by Trinity and used against its original owner. The versions used by the soldiers have a solid fixed stock/pistol grip combination. One of them is seen firing the SPAS-12 in semi-auto mode -- a rare sight in movies. However, quick bursts of M16 fire are mistakenly dubbed over instead of the appropriate shotgun report.

==GE M134 Minigun==
Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) opens up with a [[GE M134 Minigun]] mounted on a Bell 212 helicopter while rescuing Morpheus. According to armorer John Bowring, they were firing the gun at 3,000 rounds per minute (half the maximum rate of fire for the M134).

'''''The Matrix''''' is the 1999 science fiction film starring [[Keanu Reeves]] as a lowly office worker and underground computer hacker known as "Neo", who discovers that his entire world is not what it seems. The groundbreaking movie was directed by [[The Wachowskis]], who would continue the story in two sequels released in 2003: ''[[The Matrix Reloaded]]'' and ''[[The Matrix Revolutions]]''.

__TOC__ 
{{spoiler}}

=Pistols=
==Glock 17==
In the opening scene, the police officers who conduct the raid on Trinity's ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) hideout use [[Glock 17|Glock 17]] pistols as their sidearms. Due to a continuity error, Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) also switches from a [[Zastava CZ99]] to a Glock 17 during the "deja vu" scene when Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]) grabs him through the wall. Later in the film, the soldiers whom Neo and Trinity confront during the lobby and rooftop shootouts at the Agent-controlled building also seem to carry Glock 17s in their hip holsters.

What is notable is that the Glock 17s used in ''[[The Matrix]]'' are 3rd Generation models, which were brand-new at the time the film was shot (1998). To the best of IMFDB's knowledge, ''The Matrix'' is the first film ever to feature the 3rd Generation Glock pistols, beating ''[[End of Days]]'' into theaters by eight months.

[[Image:TheMatrix-G17-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|During the "deja vu" scene, Neo holds a Glock 17, which replaces the CZ99 he was using previously. It is likely that this is a rubber Glock that was used for stunt work because the armorer was not able to bring a rubber CZ99 to the set for filming.]]

==IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The Agents, including Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]), famously carry [[Desert Eagle|IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] pistols, chambered in .50 Action Express, as their sidearms throughout the movie. The Desert Eagle was specifically chosen by the Wachowski brothers as the Agents' sidearm-of-choice, against the advice of armorer John Bowring, who dismissed them as "wanker" pistols.

[[Image:MatrixDesertEagle-8.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Smith shoots Neo with his Desert Eagle about a dozen times, despite only holding 7 rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber; also, no Agent is ever seen reloading. However, given his status as a computer program in a virtual environment, one wonders why the Matrix hadn't programmed the gun with infinite ammo.]]
[[Image:MatrixDesertEagle-9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Here we see the Desert Eagle cycling through crimped blank cartridges.]]

==Beretta 84FS Cheetah==
Trinity ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) carries a pair of [[Beretta Cheetah|Beretta 84FS Cheetah]]s as her sidearms in the film. These were selected because Moss has small hands and full sized Beretta 92Fs would be gigantic in her hands. What is interesting to note is that besides the Micro Uzi used in the beginning of the lobby scene, this is the only gun that Trinity feels she needs to bring into a building guarded by three agents. Meanwhile, Neo packs about a dozen guns and a bomb.

Note the forward curve on the grips and the frame mounted safeties. The size difference between the 84FS and 92FS is not that visible when tucked into a belt like this.]]

==Zastava CZ99==
Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) gives Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) his [[Zastava CZ99]] pistol as they try to escape an Agent-led SWAT attack after visiting the Oracle. The weapon is a CZ99 and ''not'', as has been written previously, a [[SIG-Sauer P228]]; some of the weapons rental invoice documents published on Propstore.com have confirmed this. The CZ99 is a Yugoslavian-made pistol which is based on the [[SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series|P220 series]], but is actually a very different weapon.
[[Image:Cz99-1.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Zastava CZ99 - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixCZ99-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo fires his Zastava CZ99 at the SWAT team through the wall.]]

==Beretta 92FS==
Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) takes at least two pair of [[Beretta 92FS]] pistols with him on his mission to save Morpheus ([[Laurence Fishburne]]). While it may seem ridiculous to carry several copies of the same gun, it would be faster to drop the pistols when empty and pull out "fresh" ones than it would be trying to reload them, particularly when dual-wielding, as Neo does in the film. Also, such practice would have a rich precedent in the flintlock era, when bandits or pirates were known to carry up to six loaded one-shot pistols into battle.

[[Image:MatrixBeretta92FS-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo holds his empty Beretta on Agent Smith. For some strange reason it locks empty at the same time as Agent Smith's Desert Eagle, despite the Beretta holding over twice the amount of rounds (15 versus 7). Also note that the serial number (073822) is visible on the frame. According to the [http://www.berettasupport.com/applications/tech_data/schematics_results_new.php Beretta customer support web site], this weapon is a Beretta 92FS (as opposed to a 92F) with 3-dot sights that was manufactured in 1998 and sold with two ten-round magazines.]]

==Browning Hi-Power==
Switch ([[Belinda McClory]]) is seen carrying a silver chrome [[Browning Hi-Power]] with adjustable sights in 9mm caliber as her weapon of choice. She is first seen using it in the car to hold Neo at gunpoint and keep still while Trinity removes the "bug" the Agents planted in him, then using it to lay down cover fire along with Apoc while the others escape the SWAT team, taking out several SWAT members in the process.

A lobby guard tries to pull a 3" heavy barreled [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] before Trinity shoots him.

[[Image:MatrixS&W10HB-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The guard turns to shoot Trinity but is mowed down.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Micro Uzi==
During the lobby scene, Neo and Trinity both use [[Micro Uzi]]s with bent trigger guards, Trinity using one to kill one of the first guards and Neo using two to keep the soldiers behind cover.
[[Image:MicroUzi-2.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Micro Uzi with bent trigger guard and folding stock - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:MatrixMicroUzi-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Trinity empties a magazine from her Micro Uzi into the last lobby guard. In reality, firing a Micro Uzi with one hand would make it very hard to control.]]

[[Image:MatrixMicroUzi-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo breaks cover and fires his Micro Uzis at the soldiers. Note the bent trigger guard.]]

==Cobray M11/9==
Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) carries a [[Cobray M11/9]] converted to full-auto with a thread protector, and is seen using it to lay down cover fire while he and the others are fleeing in the SWAT team attack. It can be identified as a Cobray M11/9 and not an original Ingram MAC-10 because of the elongated rear receiver.
[[Image:M11 2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Cobray M11/9 - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:MatrixCobrayM119-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good shot of the elongated receiver.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
In the lobby scene, Neo uses a pair of [[Heckler & Koch MP5K]]s to eliminate the first set of guards.

[[Image:MatrixMP5K-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo firing his MP5Ks.]]

==Sa vz. 61 Skorpion (.22 LR)==
Neo fires a pair of [[Sa vz. 61 Skorpion]] sub-machine guns fitted with muzzle shrouds during the lobby shootout. Due to the shape of the magazines, this should be the .22 LR version (possibly, converted to full-auto). The cartridge cases falling from the guns are inaccurately shown as 5.56x45mm shells, which are far larger than .22 LR or .32 ACP rounds.
[[File:Vz61P22.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sa vz. 61 Pistol - .22 LR]]

[[Image:MatrixSkorpionSA-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The empty cases falling from the guns are inaccurately shown as 5.56x45mm shells, which are far larger than pistol rounds. Also, the rounds fall too far directly under the guns, while a Skorpion's ejection port sends the spent shells up and to the right. Since the cases look like real shells and not blanks, it can be assumed they just dropped handfuls of shells to get the effect.]]
[[Image:MatrixSkorpionSA-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neo firing his Skorpions.]]

=Assault Rifles=
==M16 (SP1)==
In the lobby shootout scene where Neo and Trinity encounter the security guard's "back-up" in the form of a unit of Army soldiers, the majority of the soldiers Neo and Trinity face up against are armed with [[M16 rifle series#M16 Rifle|M16 (SP1)]] rifles with slab-side receivers. The M16s used in this scene are a mixture of rifles with 3-prong flash hiders and rifles with [[M16A1]]-style "birdcage" flash hiders. Neo uses two of these M16s during this scene, one while cartwheeling across the lobby, another while on the roof.

==Leader Dynamics T2 MK5==
During the "deja vu" shootout, the SWAT officers are armed with Australian-made [[T2 MK5 assault rifle|Leader Dynamics T2 MK5]] short-barreled assault rifles. Although the weapons are rarely shown clearly on screen, the identity of the weapons has been confirmed by the rental invoices from [http://www.propstore.com Propstore], which [http://www.propstore.com/product/matrix-the/aaa-leader-t2-mk5-police-tactical-carbine-prop/ also has one of the rubber T2 MK5 carbines on sale]. The versions used in ''The Matrix'' are the "Commando" version which have 11.5-inch barrels; the weapons are also fitted with a custom-made forearm designed to hold both a tactical flashlight and laser sight. The use of an Australian weapon in this case makes sense, as most of the movie was filmed in Sydney, Australia.

Why this guy needs two flashlights on his rifle is a mystery.]]

=Shotguns=
==Mouse's Automatic Shotguns==
The unusual pair of large guns that Mouse ([[Matt Doran]]) uses are custom-built cam-operated electric driven [[(The Matrix) - Mouse's Shotguns|automatic 12 gauge shotguns]] with 25-shell cylinders and a fire rate of 900 rounds per minute. They were crafted by John Bowring, lead armorer of the film. As an inside joke, Bowring named the guns "Andy" (serial no. A1169 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet Leetspeak] for Andy) and "Larry" (serial no. L2779 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet Leetspeak] for Larry) after the Wachowskis' original names (now Lily and Lana, respectively), the writers and directors of the film. It can be assumed inside the Matrix, Mouse designed these shotguns for himself like he designed the woman in the red dress.

[[Image:MatrixAutoShotguns-5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mouse fires his shotguns as he falls back.]]

==Franchi SPAS-12==
In the lobby shootout scene, a number of soldiers are armed with [[Franchi SPAS-12]] shotguns, one of which is commandeered by Trinity and used against its original owner. The versions used by the soldiers have a solid fixed stock/pistol grip combination. One of them is seen firing the SPAS-12 in semi-auto mode -- a rare sight in movies. However, quick bursts of M16 fire are mistakenly dubbed over instead of the appropriate shotgun report.

==GE M134 Minigun==
Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) opens up with a [[GE M134 Minigun]] mounted on a Bell 212 helicopter while rescuing Morpheus. According to armorer John Bowring, they were firing the gun at 3,000 rounds per minute (half the maximum rate of fire for the M134).

Total War: Shogun 2

{{Game Title}}
__TOC__ 
=Total War: Shogun 2=
== Tanegashima ==
The [[Tanegashima]] is a Japanese matchlock arquebus used during the Sengoku Jidai and to some degree, during the Boshin War. It is used by most matchlock-type units as well as the foreign-recruited Portuguese Tercos available in the Otomo Clan DLC. A particular type of Tanegashima is used by the Heavy Gunners, Fire Rockets, and Tokitaka's Tanegashima. It can also be seen in the traditional Matchlock Kachi skirmish unit in the Fall of the Samurai expansion.

[[File:TWS23.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Portuguese Tercos also use their own matchlock muskets.]]

==Donderbuss==
The Blunderbuss or Donderbuss is used by the Donderbuss Cavalry unit only available in the Otomo Clan Pack DLC. It is the most powerful firearm in the game due to it's shotgun effect it delivers against it's targets.

[[File:EnglishBlunderbuss1766.jpg|400px|thumb|none|An early modern example of a Blunderbuss or Donderbuss]]

=Total War: Shogun 2 — Fall of the Samurai=
'''''Total War: Shogun 2 — Fall of the Samurai''''' is an expansion pack for the game that sets it in the late 1800's and adds quite a lot of firearms to the game.
==Smith & Wesson Model 2==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 2]] is added with this expansion pack and usually seen with officers and is also used by the Foreign Veteran agent during the campaign. Cavalry units like the Revolver Cavalry and the General's Bodyguard use this particular model.
[[Image:S&wmodel2.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Smith & Wesson Model 2 .32 Short]]
[[Image:Fall of the Samurai revolver.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An officer from the Royal Marines fires his Smith & Wesson Model 2 along with his fellow men.]]

==Colt 1860 Army==

[[Image:Fall of the Samurai unknown revolver.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|A U.S. Army officer holds the 1860 Army on the cover.]]

==Pattern 1861 Enfield Musketoon==
Most of the line infantry-type, levy infantry-type, and skirmisher-type units (with the exception of Tosa Riflemen) in Fall of the Samurai used the Pattern 1861 Enfield Musketoon. Units like the Shinsengumi Police Force, Yugekitai, and the foreign-recruited U.S. Marines use this particular model. Oddly enough, they use the same gun albeit with different ranges depending on the unit stats.

==Snider-Enfield rifle==
The British [[Snider-Enfield Rifle]] is used by first-tier elite troops, usually by the Imperial/Shogunate/Republican Infantry unit, the Kihetai, and the foreign-recruited Royal Marines.
[[File:Nepalese Snider.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Snider-Enfield breech-loaded rifle.]]
[[Image:2016-03-08_00002.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Royal Marines and their Snider-Enfield rifles.]]

==Spencer repeating rifle==
The American Spencer repeating rifle is used by the Tosa Riflemen, Carbine Cavalry, and Imperial Guard Cavalry. In some mods, they are used as a replacement weapon to the Tanegashima used by sailors.
[[File:Spencer-rifle.JPG|thumb|none|500px|Spencer repeating rifle.]]
[[Image:2016-03-08_00001.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Tosa Riflemen and their Spencer repeating rifles.]]

==Fusil Modèle 1866 Chassepot==
The French [[Chassepot 1866|Fusil Modèle 1866 Chassepot]] rifle is the most powerful rifle in the game commonly used by more elite units like the Imperial/Shogunate/Republican Guard Infantry and by the foreign-recruited Infanterie de Marine. Due to their fast firing rate in-game, they have a tendency to run out of ammo very quickly particularly when in Kneel Fire mode.

[[Image:2016-03-08 00003.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Infanterie de Marine marching with their Chassepots.]]

==Gatling Gun==
The 1874 model [[Gatling Gun]], apparently inspired by ''[[Last Samurai, The|The Last Samurai]]'', is also in the game and can be used as an area-denial unit. It's also being used in the the "Monitor" U.S.S. Roanoke but can only fire broadside. It can be the most lethal weapon against enemy crewmen during Naval Combat in Fall of the Samurai. This was the first-time an automatic weapon was introduced in the Total War series.

[[Image:Fall of the Samurai gatling 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A large group of Gatling guns sit in waiting.]]

==Wooden Cannon==
Wooden Cannons are, as the name suggests, made of wood. This makes them somewhat ramshackle in their operations, with a slow reload rate and an immobile platform from which they cannot move. They have a very poor accuracy in-game and can fire only a few rounds before it must be considered useless.

[[File:Wooden Cannon.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wooden Cannons used in first person mode. This feature will later be used in almost all siege artillery units in the Total War series]]

==Parrott Gun==
The Parrott Gun is the second most powerful artillery unit in the game. It's a muzzle loader and can fire explosive and canister shells. But it is the slowest unit in game , along with the Gatling Gun and the Armstrong Gun, due to it's heavy load.

[[File:Parrott Gun.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A 10 lb. Parrott Rifle used in an American Civil War reenactment]]

==Armstrong Gun==
The Armstrong Gun is the most powerful artillery unit in the game. Based on the RBL 12 Pounder 8 cwt gun, it can also fire explosive and canister shells in-game. It had a longer range than the Wooden Cannon and the Parrott Gun but it's more expensive than the other two. A Naval version of the Armstrong Gun is used as a coastal battery and as a main gun in all of the ships in Fall of the Samurai and is modeled after the Ordnance 110-pounder RBL 7 Inch Gun. Along with the Gatling Gun and the Parrott Gun, it is the slowest unit in game due to it's heavy load.

[[User_talk:Bunni/Archive1|Archive 1]]

== New Ad space ==

In the [[Talk:Main Page]], I put some examples of what's happening to the non-infobox pages with the new ad space. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 18:33, 27 January 2013 (EST)

: The screenshots are from the latest Firefox. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 19:08, 27 January 2013 (EST)

That is a nice achievement! It wouldn't be possible without your hard work in building the site though :) --[[User:Markit|Markit]] ([[User talk:Markit|talk]]) 17:33, 27 March 2013 (EDT)

== Captcha ==

Why am I having to go through captchas to edit pages? I'm using Firefox right now. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 16:40, 5 April 2013 (EDT)

: It's happening again. I can't edit any pages without having to go through a captcha challenge first. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 04:38, 15 July 2013 (EDT)

Any chance of bringing back the quotes section on the main page? --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 17:25, 28 July 2013 (EDT)

== Infobox template ==

People have been asking about the gaps at the top of pages when the infobox templates are used, and I know that the gap was put in to create space for the infoboxes. However, would just putting a <nowiki> </nowiki> at the top of the page be a simpler solution? This way it only leaves the necessary sized gap for the add in question, and if somebody is using an adblocker or a non default skin it only leaves a single line gap rather than 14. I have tried mocking it up on my [[User:Commando552/Sandbox|user page]] and it seems to work, but as I normally use an ad-blocker I don't know if this creates other conflicts or works for everyone, so wanted to check with you. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 06:16, 11 September 2013 (EDT)
:Throw it up! That's a great solution. --[[User:Bunni|bunni]] ([[User talk:Bunni|talk]]) 13:06, 11 September 2013 (EDT)

== Server issues ==

Any ideas regarding all the editing downtime we've been having recently? We've had 12+ hour blackouts where nobody could edit, login or upload images and we're kind of wondering what's going on. Seems uploads just went down again, too. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 16:50, 9 November 2013 (EST)
:Still a slight issue in that it seems if you're logged out you can't view content pages that weren't edited today, I can get La Femme Nikita 1990 and Olympus Has Fallen but not Serpico, and as soon as I edited CoD Ghosts I could get that to load elsewhere (testing in Internet Explorer where I'm not logged in). Also the Vector skin is kind of broken, at least if you're logged out. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 03:54, 10 November 2013 (EST)

== Image quality ==

For some reason, the image quality on some of the images on several pages ([[NCIS - Season 1]] and [[NCIS: New Orleans - Season 1]]) are starting to look a little blurry. Take a look at the SIG-Sauer P228 section in NCIS Season 1. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 04:07, 21 November 2014 (EST)

If you look at the fourth screenshot in the SIG-Sauer P228 of [[NCIS - Season 1]], these look significantly lower quality than the other ones on the page. These are all HD images originally. It's the image below that doesn't look good on the TV page. If I change the thumbnail size, it then seems to correct itself. I've looked at it in both Chrome and Firefox. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 12:24, 21 November 2014 (EST)

Have you considered putting up a Patreon account to fund IMFDB's dastardly activities? I hear it's what all the cool kids do nowadays. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 08:23, 24 October 2017 (EDT)

==Mobile redirects==
Hello, for the past few months, some users including me have been having a weird issue when opening this specific website on mobile, as discussed [[Talk:Main Page#Weird redirects on mobile|here]]. It usually happens only once per day (sometimes for the first time in a day, although it's not always the case). In my case, when I open the link to the IMFDB recent changes (regardless of whether I'm logged in or not), I automatically get redirected to "sslgateways.com" followed by a series of random letters and numbers, which itself proceeds to redirect me to strange websites including "tlgram.me" (although I always try to stop the loading process of such pages as fast as possible and reload the IMFDB link). Me and the other users who mentioned the issue are encountering this while using Chrome on Android devices (although it doesn't seem to be exclusive to Chrome, according to Lunar Watcher's last comment). Any idea what's exactly causing this, and if it can be fixed? --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 11:35, 26 February 2019 (EST)

== John Wick ==

Hey Bunni, there's a small issue with all namespaces (main articles, images, templates) that have "John Wick" as part of their name. It appears that the ad showing up at the top causes most of the text to be squeezed to the left side (easily seen [[John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum|this article]], and it's been discussed at the end of its talk page). Is there any chance of fixing it? It's strange, since there is also an ad with the same width [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|there]], and yet it's not causing any problems. --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 18:14, 7 October 2019 (EDT) P.S.: The sslgateways.com redirects on mobile are now occurring again.

'''''Battlefield 3''''' (also known as '''''BF3''''') is the twelfth installment of the ''[[Battlefield]]'' series. The game was developed by the Swedish company Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts in 2011 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. The game is powered by the proprietary Frostbite 2 engine, a further development of the engine used in the ''Bad Company'' games.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Battlefield 3'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Unlike earlier DICE games like ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]]'' and ''[[Medal of Honor (2010)|Medal of Honor]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s multiplayer, weapons in ''Battlefield 3'' correctly track + 1 in the chamber and have correct chambering reload animations during empty reloads.

=Handguns=

==Beretta M9==
In the beginning of the single-player mission "Semper Fidelis" and "The Great Destroyer", Blackburn acquires a [[Beretta M9]]. It can also be seen holstered on some US Marine throughout the single-player campaign. In multiplayer it is the starting handgun for US forces. In multiplayer, Players can unlock additional M9's outfitted with a Tactical Light and a Sound Suppressor separately as they level (rank) up.
[[Image:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:BF3-M9-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds an M9 at the start of the introductory mission "Semper Fidelis." This one of only two times in the entire campaign the player character has a sidearm.]]

[[Image:Bf3 m9 latarka reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer reloads a Beretta M9 fitted with a flashlight.]]
[[Image:Bf3_M9_suppressed.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M9 with a suppressor. Different classes of weapon use different suppressor models, but those models are shared among the weapons of that class. The only exceptions to this are the G3A3 and SCAR-H CQC, which use the same model as the sniper rifles because of their caliber.]]

==="93R"===
The [[Beretta M9|M9]]'s model is also modified to be the [[Beretta 93R|"93R"]] in the game. The weapon is given a 93R's muzzle brake and folding foregrip, as well as being able to fire 3-round bursts, and uses 20 round magazines, can be unlocked as a sidearm in Co-Op requiring a 86,000 Co-Op Score.
[[Image:Beretta92FS ExtR.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS rendered with extended barrel and magazine to resemble the Beretta 93R - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[file:Beretta93-1-.jpg|thumb|none|400px||An actual Beretta 93R for comparison - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[Image:Bf3 93r holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Beretta is incorrectly depicted in-game.]]
[[File:Bf3 Beretta 93R aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Iron sights of the Beretta.]]
[[Image:Bf3 93r slide locked.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Better look at the Beretta.]]
[[Image:Bf3 93r reloading 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After replacing the magazine he operates the slide release; note the projecting base of the 20-round magazine and the two-handed grip used with this weapon.]]

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog. Called "G17C", although it is modeled after a standard Glock 17 as there are no compensator cuts on the top of the slide. It comes standard with a laser sight, while a variant that has both a laser sight and a suppressor is available as a later unlock. It is the only handgun that lets you equip two attachments at a time without either being a DICE developer, or having a certain DLC package. Also, all of the US Assault kit soldiers have a G17 in a chest holster in addition to whatever their selected sidearm is, and this G17 does not have a laser.

[[Image:BF3-Glock-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A dead PLR soldier with a Glock 17 at his side.]]

==Glock 18==
The third generation [[Glock 18]] appears as the "G18". It has an extended magazine base that gives it a 19 round capacity. Interestingly enough in the beta, the suppressed Glock 18 is unlocked before the standard unsuppressed variant (though this has been fixed in the regular game and the unsuppressed version is unlocked at Rank 30 with the suppressed variant unlocked at 41). Note that the Battlelog picture (seen below) lacks a fire selector, but is actually different than that G17's picture. This is most likely because it is from an early build of the game, as it appears correctly in-game. It is an incredibly effective sidearm in close quarters, but is useless at medium range and beyond unless burst fired.

[[File:BF3 Glock 18 aiming.jpg|thumb|none|600px|ADS view.]]
[[File:BF3G18reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading; note the fire selector.]]

==MEU(SOC) Pistol==
The USMC variant of the M1911, the [[M45]], can be used if the player is a Battlefield Veteran or a member of the EA Gun Club. It is a standard M1911A1 with a three-hole trigger, a Springfield slide, commander-style hammer, beavertail grip safety, Pachmayr rubber grips, and uses 8 round magazines. It comes with additional variants that incorporate a Tactical Flashlight or Sound Suppressor. A variant with both aforementioned attachments (named ''M1911 S-TAC'') exist, but prior to the release of the ''End Game'' DLC, it was available only to DICE employees. For those with the DLC, a series of assignments need to be completed in order to unlock a final assignment, called "All about precision". After completing it (which require 20 headshots with pistols), the pistol is unlocked.

[[Image:BF3-MEU(SOC)-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MEU(SOC) has its own unique reload animation, while all the other pistols use another generic animation. Here the magazine is ejected. Note the incorrect curved mainspring housing. Also note the A1 style safety, which is also incorrect.]]
[[Image:BF3-MEU(SOC)-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Lining up a loaded magazine with the magwell. Note that the "MODEL 1911-A1" and "CAL.45" markings on the slide. This and the slanted serrations shows that it's a Springfield Armory made slide.]]
[[Image:BF3-MEU(SOC)-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Top view of the pistol.]]

==MP-412 REX==
The [[MP-412 REX]] revolver returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' as an unlockable sidearm that can only be unlocked by achieving a 5000 Co-Op Score. Unlike in ''Bad Company 2'', the top break cartridge ejector is seen in full effect actually ejecting spent rounds as opposed to "flicking" them out. It is considerably different by having a slightly faster rate of fire and being more effective at close range compared to its larger .44 cousin.

[[File:Bf3 MP-412 REX reloading 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Inserting new .357 Magnum rounds with a speedloader.]]

==MP-443 Grach==
The [[MP-443 Grach]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'' and is the Russian faction's sidearm. In Multiplayer the player unlocks the Tactical Light and Sound Suppressor as they level up instead of by gaining kills with the weapon. Its 17-round capacity can be considered anachronistic, as Russian forces have switched to 18-round magazines in 2004.

[[File:Bf3 MP-443 Grach reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mid-magazine reload.]]

==Taurus Model 44==
The [[Taurus Model 44]] appears as an unlockable sidearm, and can be fitted with a scope. Appears as ".44 Magnum", one of the few weapons in game that does not go by its proper name. In the campaign, the antagonist Solomon uses one as his personal sidearm. In multiplayer, a variant with a PK-A scope is fittingly unlocked at Rank 44. It has a slow rate of fire, but is a powerful weapon.
[[Image:Taurus 44.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Taurus Model 44 with 6" barrel - .44 Magnum]]
[[Image:BF3-Taurus44-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Solomon aims his Taurus Model 44 at Blackburn during the introductory level. Visible in the full-sized image is what appears to be an empty speedloader hovering in mid-air behind the weapon, just above Solomon's wrist.]]

==Dog Tag Weapons==
A large number of weapons appear on dog tags associated with a similar weapon, weapon of the same family, weapon of the same category, or in a few cases, weapons that make no sense at all. As there are so many, the weapons found '''only''' on dog tags have been placed in their own category at the bottom of each class of weapon. This is to avoid confusion as to which weapons are actually in the game and which ones are only pictures.

=Submachine Guns=
Unlike previous games in the series, SMGs are all-class weapons, and not strictly limited to an Engineer/Spec Ops-type class.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] boasts a large ammo capacity at 50+1, a high rate of fire, and excellent accuracy at the expense of suffering from low damage at long distance. The weapon is capable of being used by all four classes in multiplayer.
[[Image:FN_P90_Triple_Rail_(TR).jpg|thumb|none|400px|FN P90TR - 5.7x28mm]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5KA4==
The [[MP5K|MP5KA4]] is added to BF3 via ''Close Quarters'' DLC, called M5K in BF3, comes standard with a 15 round magazine that incorrectly holds 20 rounds. However, the Extended Mags attachment gives it a 30 round magazine with the correct ammo count. Note that in Battlelog, its render is a MP5KN with the fire selector on safe, but in-game it is a MP5KA4 with the fire selector on full-auto. A correct three-round burst mode was added in a patch around the time of release for the ''Armored Kill'' expansion.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
The [[H&K MP7A1]] can be unlocked and used by any kit. It can use either a 20- or 40-round magazine. It must be unlocked in the Co-Op mode, requiring 34,000 Score. It does low damage to enemies, but has a very high rate of fire and manageable recoil to balance it out. An interesting thing to note is that this weapon has separate reload animations for the 20 and 40 round magazines (the 20 round magazine is dropped via the use of gravity, while the 40 round magazine is manually removed). The "reload-from-empty" animation on the MP7 has the player thumb an invisible bolt release, not reaching far enough to tab the lever.

[[File:Bf3 Heckler & Koch MP7A1 aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The default iron sights of the MP7 in multiplayer.]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP|H&K UMP45]] can be used by all four classes, and has an ammo capacity of 25 + 1. The game correctly depicts the UMP's single / 2 round burst / full auto firing modes.
[[Image:UMP 45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch UMP45 - .45 ACP]]
[[Image:Rrt877 ump.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The UMP in multiplayer.]]

[[Image:BF3-UMP-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn reloads his UMP during "The Great Destroyer," wondering why he didn't have it the first time he went through this section. Note the caution on the side of the weapon to read the owner's manual; while this makes some sense on this level where the UMPs are seen in the hands of terrorists, the warning is still present even in "Operation Guillotine" when the UMPs are used by the US military; military UMPs should not have it.]]

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[Izhmash PP-19 Bizon|PP-19 Bizon-2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The weapon features a slightly inaccurate magazine capacity of 54 rounds (+ 1 in the chamber), whereas the real life 9x19mm Parabellum helical magazine has a max capacity of 53. However, the PP-19 in-game is chambered in the 9x18mm Makarov, although the lower magazine capacity could very well be for balancing purposes, as DICE may have felt 64 rounds in an SMG would be a tad unfair. Also to note, the PP-19 is the only 9x18mm Makarov weapon in the game.
[[Image:Bizon9x18.jpg|thumb|none|400px|PP-19 Bizon-2 - 9x18mm Makarov]]

[[File:BF3 PP19 ads.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Iron sights of a camouflaged Bizon.]]

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', feeling much more realistic this time around, with a more believable firing rate and packing a decent punch per shot, as opposed to the previous game, in which its firing rate was more akin to a Minigun and its power-per-shot around the area of lightly tossing a handful of pebbles at your opponent's face.

=Shotguns=
For the first time in a main ''Battlefield'' series game (excluding spinoffs like ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]''), shotguns can be iron-sighted, and like the SMGs, can be used in every kit. In addition, DICE made it so that their shotguns have considerable range, unlike most video games where you have to see the whites of the enemies' eyes for shotguns to be effective.

In BF3, shotgun shells change color depending on which faction is using them; US Marines use red shells, and Russian Ground Forces use green shells.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M1014]] semi-automatic shotgun is found in ''Battlefield 3''. Magazine capacities available are either the civilian legal 4+1, or the full-length 6+1 (Indicating the use of 3-inch magnum rounds. The full-length tube normally holds seven 2.75-inch rounds). When reloading from empty, the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly, just like the 870 MCS.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[SPAS-12]] is one of the 10 guns appearing in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. The weapon is restricted to pump action, and performs similarly to the 870MCS and has the same standard (4+1) and extended (6+1) capacities, but has a slower per-shell reload speed and each shell contains one less pellet than those of the 870. However, it's offset by a maximum rate of fire that is high enough to the point that the next shot can be fired way before the pump animation can finish, specifically at the brief moment where the action is fully to the rear.

The SPAS is also one of the strangest weapons to appear on a different weapon's Dog Tag; it appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the USAS-12. Other than four capital letters followed by "-12", both being 12-gauge, and that they were both in the ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company]]'' series, they have little in common. The ''Close Quarters'' DLC, which adds the SPAS-12, still has the USAS-12 displaying a SPAS-12 Dog Tag.

==M26 MASS==
The [[M26 MASS]] can be used only in the Assault kit in the "Gadget 1" slot. It may be used either as a standalone weapon, or mounted on any of the assault rifles if said rifle is equipped with the underslung rail. It can fire buckshot, flechettes, FRAG-12 rounds, or slugs, same as the other shotguns. The AEK-971 and AN-94 cannot mount the M26 MASS despite having underslung rails as an available attachment, possibly because it would interfere with both weapon's particular reload animation. A model glitch exists on some weapons that mount the M26 MASS where the charging handle will stay up even when the weapon is not in use.

==Pancor Jackhammer==
The [[Pancor Jackhammer]], called the "MK3A1", is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The appearance is highly unrealistic since only two fully automatic prototypes were ever produced; obviously, it does not emulate the real weapon's problems with failing to cycle in full-auto. It feeds from a 8-round magazine or a 12-round extended magazine, both incorrect; the real weapon feeds from a 10-round revolver style cylinder and does not chamber a round to gain a +1 as portrayed in the game.
[[Image:Jackhammer.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Pancor Jackhammer - 12 gauge]]
[[Image:BF3-Jackhammer-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Jackhammer on the customisation screen. Note the erroneous suppressor attachment that has since been patched out of the Jackhammer's available accessories list.]]

The foregrip is pushed forward to unlock and drop the "ammo cassette" (cylinder magazine), a fresh ammo cassette is inserted, and a release button on the trigger guard is pressed to retract the foregrip and lock the ammo cassette in place.]]

==Remington 870 MCS==
The [[Remington 870|Remington 870 MCS]] appears as the "870MCS". The player pumps the shotgun very quickly, which makes it seem almost semi-automatic in-game, like a pump action combat shotgun should be. Magazine capacities are either the standard 4+1, or the extended 6+1. As with the M1014, when reloading from empty the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly.

==Saiga 12K==
The [[Saiga 12K]] returns from ''Battlefield 2'' and is the second semi-auto shotgun unlocked. Magazine capacities are either the standard 6+1, or an extended 10+1 (originally 5+1 standard, and 8+1 extended, following the maximum factory capacity, changed after the 4th update).
[[Image:Saiga 12k-1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Saiga 12K - 12 gauge]]

For a finishing touch, the car exploded immediately afterwards.]]

==SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper]] and the [[Armsel Protecta]] is included in ''Battlefield 3''. It features semi-automatic fire, has a thin winding key on the front of the drum magazine, and lacks a rear-mounted drum advance lever, which are features of the Street Sweeper, while it also has the Protecta's automatic shell ejection capabilities and therefore its large shell deflector (the Street Sweeper had to manually eject fired shells with an ejector rod, like a [[Colt Single Action Army]]). Conceptually, the hybrid is similar to Sentinel Arms' treatment of the Armsel Striker in their Striker-12, but the weapon lacks the Striker-12's unique thumb tab.

The weapon is referred to as the "DAO-12", as it was in ''[[Battlefield 2]]''; this stands for "double action only, 12 gauge" and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it. The name was kept as an homage to ''Battlefield 2''. The weapon has an incorrect capacity of 8-rounds by default, but the correct 12 if the extended magazine attachment is used. This is most likely for balance, so players can't use a semi-auto, 12 round shotgun AND 3 attachments on top of that.

[[File:Bf3 Cobray Street Sweeper reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and inserts the shells one at a time via the loading gate. The process is incorrect because the drum is never rotated after loading a round; DICE apparently assumed that the drum would automatically rotate during reloading like when firing, when in reality it has to be rotated manually while reloading (the reload is corrected in BF4). Note "12 GAUGE" and a fragmentation symbol visible on the shells.]]
[[File:BF3 DAO-12 winding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of an empty reload, the character winds the drum before loading it.]]

==USAS-12==
The [[USAS-12]] is the only full-auto shotgun in-game, barring the MK3A1 Jackhammer in ''Back to Karkand''. The magazine capacity is incorrectly 6+1 by standard or the correct 10+1 with the extended magazines equipped, most likely for balance, same as the Striker. When optics are attached, the carry handle is replaced by a strip of rails, meaning that the weapon becomes visually identical to the WM-12, an American semi-auto clone of the USAS-12. Like all shotguns, it can utilise standard Buckshot, Slugs, Flechettes and explosive FRAG-12 rounds as well as fit a variety of accessories and attachments.

=Assault Rifles & Battle Rifles=
==5.56A-91==
The [[5.56A-91]] appears as part of the incredibly vague "Compact Assault Rifle" classification, and thus is used by the Engineer kit. It does not have its 40mm grenade launcher. It is the successor to the [[9A-91]] from ''Bad Company 2'', albeit firing the 5.56mm NATO round instead of the 9A-91's 9x39mm one. Called "[[A-91]]" in the game, which refers to the 7.62x39mm variant.

==AEK-971==
The [[AEK-971]] is an unlock for the Assault kit.
[[Image:aek971_545.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AEK-971 (current model) with folding stock - 5.45x39mm]]

Switching to secondary weapon and back again fixes this issue.]]
[[Image:Rrt877 aek2 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AEK-971 in MP, reloading.]]

==AK-74M==
The [[AK-74M]] is the standard assault rifle used by the Russian Assault kit. It is very accurate and has minimal recoil, but suffers from reduced damage compared to the M16A3.
[[Image:AK-74M.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-74M - 5.45x39mm]]
[[Image:BF3-AK-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds an AK-74M equipped with a PSO-1 scope during "Operation Swordbreaker."

==AKS-74U==
The [[AKS-74U]] is used by the Engineer kit in multiplayer, and is the starting weapon for Russian Engineers.
[[Image:AKSU-Krinkov.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AKS-74U - 5.45x39mm]]

[[Image:BF3-AKS-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of the mission "Uprising," Blackburn relieves a PLR soldier of this AKS-74U with a Kobra reflex sight, suppressor and tactical light.]]
[[Image:Rrt877 aks74u reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AKS-74U in multiplayer, note the the odd milled/stamped steel hybrid receiver, showing this is the same model from the ''Bad Company'' series.]]

==AN-94==
The [[AN-94]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series. The AN-94's dual-rate full-auto mode is correctly depicted in ''Battlefield 3''. In multiplayer, when set to burst, the weapon fires an 1800RPM 2-round burst, and when set to full auto, it fires the first two shots at 1800RPM, while the rest are fired at 600RPM. In the single-player campaign, the 2 round burst is shown to incorrectly fire at the 600 rpm as opposed to the correct 1800 rpm.

The AN-94 starts in 2-round burst mode by default. Before a patch, the weapon lacked the semi-automatic mode found on the real weapon, instead featuring only the 2-burst and full-auto modes.

An interesting note is that the player character uses the Speed Reload technique when reloading the AN-94, where he pushes the mag release and flicks the magazine out with another magazine, the same applies to the AEK-971.

==AS Val==
The [[AS Val]] appears as an all kit weapon, most likely due to its small size and unique integrated suppressor, making it too specialized for any specific kit. The March 2012 update added the option of using extended 30-round box magazines (the largest box mag available for the VSS/AS Val/SR-3 rifles) instead of the standard 20-rounders. However, the gun is still modelled with a 20-round magazine even with the extended magazine equipped.

==Colt M4LE Carbine==
Two versions of the [[M4 Carbine]] are found: the full-auto "M4A1" and the 3-round burst "M4". However, they are modeled after the civilian M4LE, as evidenced by the Safe/Fire selector switch. The model features a KAC RIS handguard, Crane SOPMOD stock, Hogue pistol grip, M16A1 flash hider, and Magpul Ranger Plates. In singleplayer, the "M4A1" is commonly seen in the hands of the main character. In multiplayer, being a carbine, the M4s are used by the Engineer kit. The "M4A1" is the starting weapon for US Engineers, while the "M4" is unlocked at 40,000 Engineer score.

Interestingly, the first "Fault Line" trailers showed the player rack the charging handle during an empty reload, which was changed to a press of the bolt release from the Operation Metro trailer onwards and into the release version.

[[File:Bf3 Colt M4A1 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M4 in multiplayer without any attachment.]]

==Colt Sporter Competition==
Both the 3-round burst "[[M16A4]]" and the full-auto "M16A3" are in fact modeled after the civilian Colt Sporter Competition, since they have a Safe/Fire selector switch, and they lack a bayonet lug. The model features an [[M16A1]] flash hider, a KAC RIS handguard with a rail cover on the right side rail, a Hogue pistol grip, a Magpul loop on the magazine, and a cloth sleeve wrapped around the stock.

The "M16A3" is the standard assault rifle used by the US Assault kit, and can be unlocked for the Russian Assault at 220,000 Assault points; the "M16A4" meanwhile is unlocked for both factions at 89,000 Assault points.

The "M16A4" was one of the first weapons to be shown in early gameplay footage, but was lacking rear iron sights and optical sights; these were added later on. Some later footage showed the M16 with the gas block missing when mounting sights, but this too was corrected in the final release.

==DIO KH2002 Sama==
Befitting the Iranian setting, the [[DIO KH2002|DIO KH2002 Sama]] bullpup assault rifle is one of the weapons in the game. The improved foregrip of the Sama model only appears if the Foregrip attachment is used in multiplayer. The in-game model fires 30 rounds form a 20 round STANAG magazine, however.

In campaign mode, the weapon is often found in the hands of Iranian Army soldiers after the PLR's hostile takeover. It fires in single shot and 3-round burst firing modes, and uses Russian optics. It can be unlocked for multiplayer use with a 17,000 co-op score.

==FAMAS Valorisé==
A [[FAMAS Valorisé]] (FAMAS Upgraded) is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. The weapon is incorrectly fitted with a G1/G2 trigger guard rather than the correct F1 style one and has had the bipod removed. In-game, the FAMAS uses the correct 25 round straight magazines.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series, and has much more realistic statistics, most notably that it doesn't have a fire rate resembling a minigun. Due to its lack of an underslung rail, an M320 or M26 MASS will always be carried as a standalone if the F2000 is equipped. The F2000 can mount a bipod and foregrip like the other assault rifles.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The first generation FN Mk 17 Mod 0, or [[FN SCAR-H CQC]], is used by the Engineer kit In multiplayer. A modeling mistakes shows the fire selector switch set on semi-auto as the weapon itself fires on full-auto by default.

==FN SCAR-L==
The first generation FN Mk 16 MOD 0, or [[SCAR-L]], is an assault rifle added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and is issued to the Assault kit. It's weaker than its bigger brother the SCAR-H because of its smaller round, but it boasts a slightly higher rate of fire (620 rpm) and extremely controllable recoil. It's unlocked by completing the 'Set us up the Bomb' assignment, which involves killing 20 enemies with an underslung grenade launcher and 15 enemies with hand grenades.

==Heckler & Koch G36 ("MG36")==
In the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, a [[Heckler & Koch G36]] with G36C rails, bipods, and Beta C-Mag drums appears as the "MG36"; the actual MG36 did not have such a configuration, and was a rare weapon with a total production run of around 100 units, facts that were even mentioned in the description. Used by the Support kit, the C-Mag is limited to 50+1 and requires the "Extended Magazines" attachment in order to use its full 100+1 capacity.

==Heckler & Koch G36C==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36C]] is seen in single player in the mission "Comrades". The model is based from 2008's DICE game [[Mirror's Edge]]. It can fire semi, auto, or two-round burst. In multiplayer, the G36C being a carbine is used by the engineer kit and uses opaque magazines.

==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
The [[G3A3]] is available in both single and multiplayer. It is an actual H&K G3A3, and not an Iranian clone. It has a wide handguard, and the fire selector markings are S-E-F. The Iranian-manufactured version differs in that it utilizes a slimline handguard and has Farsi writing on the receiver. It can be unlocked for use in multiplayer by gaining 160,000 Co-Op score.

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
The [[HK416]] returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' having a 10.4" barrel and OD furniture. It is the first unlock for the Assault kit and can have an M320 (which replaces the kit's Medkit) mounted as long as a grip or bipod are not. It once again appears as the "M416," seemingly just because that's what it was called in the ''Bad Company'' games since it is no longer shown as a standardised US military weapon in singleplayer. At release, it featured semi-auto, burst, and full-auto modes, something that isn't typically possible with AR-15 type rifles and derivatives. A patch in December of 2011 removed the burst mode for PC, and as of the March 2012 patch, the Xbox 360 and PS3 version's M416 has it removed as well. The BF3 HK416 uses the older M4 Gen II style stock and a Tangodown pistol grip. Newer variants utilize HK's in-house stock and grip designs.

==Heckler & Koch HK53==
The [[HK53]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the G53. It was listed in game under its original "HK53" name on the PS3 version until a patch altered it to G53 as used in the PC and X360 versions. It is a compact version of the HK33 rifle, and as a carbine, it can be used by the Engineer kit.

==L85A2==
The [[L85A2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. It features very high accuracy, low recoil and better hip-fire accuracy due to its bullpup configuration but suffers in close quarters due to its 650 RPM rate of fire. It also cannot mount an underslung M320 like it can in real life.

==Magpul PDR==
The [[Magpul PDR]], a compact bullpup assault rifle development of which was abandoned the year the game came out, appears as an all kit weapon. For unknown reasons, it appears as the "PDW-R" (most likely standing for Personal Defence Weapon-Rifle). Uses either 20 or 30 round polymer magazines, with 20 being the default option.

==SIG SG 553==
The [[SIG SG 553]] appears in ''Battlefield 3'' with a railed handguard. The in-game model's serial numbers points to its modeling reference being a SIG SG 553-1 SP semi-auto only model (the one on the reference image below in particular), though the in-game weapon still has the automatic firing options of the standard SIG SG 553. In multiplayer, being a carbine, it is used by the Engineer kit. It can only be unlocked in Co-Op by achieving a score of 120,000. In the campaign mode, the SG 553 is found in two places. The first is in "Comrades", where a police officer exiting the van has one, and the other one being found by the player after the train crashes in "The Great Destroyer".

==Remington ACR==
The [[Remington ACR]] joins the arsenal of ''Battlefield 3'' as part of the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and was first seen in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay video. It is named "ACW-R" (likely meaning 'Adaptive Combat Weapon - Rifle') much like the "PDW-R". It boasts a high rate of fire with controllable recoil and features a 26 round capacity in a 30 round 5.56mm PMAG magazine. Developers have stated that the "ACW-R" in-game is chambered for 6.5x38mm Grendel, which explains the round capacity. Newer revisions of the Remington ACR have features not reflected in this game model, such as an angled / folding charging handle and an updated lighter-weight rail.

==Steyr AUG A3-CQC==
The [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]] was added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It serves a similar role to the M416, a stable gun with a steady 700 rpm rate of fire and easy to control recoil. The AUG A3-CQC is unique, as it's the only bullpup assault rifle that can mount an underslung weapon. It was first shown in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay trailer and in pre-release screenshots. It is very accurate and has controllable recoil, making it an effective assault rifle. It is unlocked by completing the "Shepard" assignment which involves 10 squad revives and 30 kills with assault rifles.

==MTAR-21==
The [[IMI Micro Tavor MTAR-21]] is a carbine added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It features high recoil due to its short barrel and high rate of fire. In CQB it's capable of mowing down enemies with little trouble due to its 900 rpm rate of fire, but the recoil severely limits its long range capabilities.

The Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30 shows an [[M203]] mounted to an [[M16A1]], complete with the heatshield handguard.

===M16A2===
The Dog Tag the player receives for 500 kills with the M16A3/A4 shows an [[M16A2]] instead.

===FAMAS===
A [[FAMAS]] (G2?) appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the FAMAS.

100 Kills with either the SCAR-H carbine or the SCAR-L assault rifle earns the player a SCAR-L dog tag. The release of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC (which introduced the SCAR-L) has not brought along a proper dog tag for the SCAR-H.

==Heckler & Koch M27 IAR==
The [[Heckler & Koch M27 IAR]] is the starting weapon for the US support class, and uses a 45-round extended magazine. It is shown with a 4-vent handguard, but the correct extended barrel for the version is shown, the handguard simply covering less of it.

==LSAT Light Machine Gun==
The [[LSAT|LSAT Light Machine Gun]] is a light machine gun added to ''Battlefield 3'' through the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. In-game it uses the configuration that loads polymer-cased ammunition. It is unlocked by completing the "Point Blank" assignment, which involves 10 kills with C4 and 10 knife takedowns.

==M240B==
The [[M240B]] appears in the hands of some US Marines, and in the hands of the player character, fitted with an EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS). The weapon features a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.

==M249==
An [[M249]] is featured in the game, identified by its STANAG magazine well. It has a fixed buttstock, short paratrooper barrel, and the railed heat shield of the Mk 46 Mod 0. This configuration is typical of Airsoft "Mk 46" guns which have Mk 46 features but retain their STANAG wells.

==M60E4==
The [[M60E4]] is the last MG to be unlocked in the Support kit. Extended magazines gifts the weapon with a massive 200 round box and this is visually shown on the weapon when attached.

==QBB-95==
The [[QBB-95]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Support kit. It uses 75-round drums, and has the highest capacity of any weapon in the game besides belt-fed LMGs.

==QJY-88==
The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', once again called the "Type 88". This isn't wrong per se (the weapon is named "Type 88 GPMG" in Chinese), but quite odd, as the QBZ-95B, QBB-95, and QBU-88 all use their proper "QB" designations.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears in the game. It features high stopping power like other 7.62 weapons, and is more accurate than other LMGs, but has a sharp vertical recoil and less than optimal mobility due to its weight.

==RPK==
The [[RPK light machine gun]] is the starting weapon for the Russian Support class. It is referred to in game as an "[[RPK light machine gun#RPK-74|RPK-74M]]", a modernised 5.45x39mm version with synthetic furnishings and a flash hider, despite that it is shown with a 7.62x39mm magazine and no flash hider. The weapon's damage matches the idea that it is a -74 model, as it is scaled to the 5.56mm machine guns, as opposed to behaving like a 7.62x39. When mounting optics the weapon gains side-mounted bracket for attaching them; if it does not mount optics, the bracket is not present. It can sometimes be found fitted with a vertical front grip attached to the underside of the handguard.

==L86A1==
The [[Enfield L86A1]] is a weapon added as a part of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC. In game it's named the "L86A2" and features a 45+1 magazine, despite being modelled with a 30 round one. Like in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]] its rear foregrip is unused. In game it handles much like the L85A2. Its low rate of fire is balanced by its low recoil. It comes with a bipod by default.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===MG36===
Despite the fact that BF3's "MG36" is a hybrid of G36 variants, a configuration correct for an actual MG36 appears on the Dog Tag the player is awarded with for getting 500 kills with it.

=Sniper Rifles=
Unusually, Recon players can opt for low-magnification optics, unmagnified reflex/red-dot sights, or even iron-sights in lieu of the standard high-magnification optics.

==Barrett M98B==
The [[Barrett M98B|M98B]] is the last bolt action unlocked. It is incredibly accurate and powerful, but is heavy and suffers from substantial sway unless a bipod is used. For balance reasons the magazine capacity is limited to 5 rounds instead of the real world's 10.

==Barrett M107==
The [[Barrett M107]] is available in the game, however, DICE felt that the .50 caliber round it uses would either be overpowered if depicted properly, or feel useless if kept balanced, so they opted to simply not have it in multiplayer. It only appears in the singleplayer level "Kaffarov", where player character Dmitri Mayakovsky acquires it due to a somewhat bizarre series of events that don't seem to play out quite the way they were intended to. Here, it is equipped with a thermal scope.

==Accuracy International AWM-F==
The [[Accuracy International AWM|Accuracy International AWM-F]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the "L96" (the British designation of the Accuracy International Precision Marksman; the actual British designation of the AWM is L115A1/A3), and can be used by the Recon kit. True to its reputation, the gun is extremely accurate at long ranges, with minimal bullet drop allowing for precise headshots. Its ballistics are modeled after the L96A1's 7.62 NATO chambering rather the the AW Magnum's .338 Lapua.

==MKEK JNG-90==
The [[MKEK JNG-90]] was included for the Recon class in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. To acquire it, the player would have to complete an assignment.
[[Image:JNG-90.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MKEK JNG-90 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M14 (in Sage chassis)==
An [[M14]] in a Sage chassis appears as a sniper rifle in the Recon class, though it is incorrectly referred to as the [[M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle|M39 EMR]]. It is unlocked when the player receives 58,000 Co-Op Score.
[[Image:Sagem14 09-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M14 with Sage stock and scope - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

[[Image:Rrt877 ebr reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer simultaneously reloads the M14 and demonstrates that ''Battlefield 3'' does not necessary require you to have a sniper scope on your sniper rifle.]]

==M40A5==
The [[M40A5 Sniper Rifle]] is the second bolt-action rifle unlocked for the Recon class. It has lower muzzle velocity than the other bolt-action rifles, but benefits from the fastest cycle time between shots and moderately low sway.
[[Image:M40A5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M40A5 sniper rifle with Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M40-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds a suppressed M40A5 fitted with an IR scope during the mission "Night Shift."]]

==HK417==
The Heckler and Koch [[HK417]] is added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. Much like the HK53 and the HK416, it lacks the 'HK' prefix and is instead called the M417 in game. It's limited to semi-automatic fire in game and features a 20 round magazine. In game it performs as a hybrid of the Mk11/M39/SVD and the SKS. It has the damage of the MK11/M39/SVD with the capacity of the SKS and a rate of fire that's inbetween the two. It has manageable recoil, and comes with a 8x scope by default. It comes correctly equipped with early-production 20-round HK417 magazines, but are colored grayish instead of transparent. This can be easily seen by looking at the magazine while crawling.

==Knight's Armament SR-25==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25]] appears in BF3 under the name Mk 11 Mod 0, its designation in SOCOM. It is found occasionally in the single-player campaign. It is the default rifle for the US Recon kit in multiplayer, outfitted by standard with a 8x rifle scope.

==Norinco NDM-86==
The .308 variant of the [[Norinco NDM-86]] returns from ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]'', once again appearing as the ''[[SVD]]'' It is default for the Russian Recon Kit sporting a PKS-07 7x Scope by default, though the correct PSO-1 4x scope is the first attachment unlocked at only 10 kills.

==QBU-88==
The [[QBU-88]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Recon kit.
[[Image:Qbu-88-0.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Norinco QBU-88 - 5.8x42mm]]

==M59/66 SKS==
The Yugoslavian M59/66 variant of the [[SKS]] appears in-game, with synthetic Tapco furniture and uses 20 round magazines. It can be identified as the Yugoslavian variant by the design of the front sight with an integrated grenade sight, and by its muzzle device. It is a good choice for close range compared to other Recon-class rifles due to its higher mobility/low weight, 20-round capacity and low recoil, at the cost of less hitting power and range.

=Launchers=
==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin|Javelin]] appears and can be used in either top-down or direct-fire modes, and obviously needs a lock to fire. In the campaign, Blackburn uses one during "Operation Guillotine;" here it has infinite ammunition. During the latter sequence, the Javelin is shown firing at absurdly short range; in real life it has a minimum range of around 250 feet.
[[Image:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FGM-148 Javelin - 127mm]]

[[Image:BF3-Javelin-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds the Javelin. Note the help text misidentifies it as a SMAW.]]

==GP-30==
If the M320 is mounted to a Russian weapon (namely the AEK-971, AK-74M, and AN-94) through the Underslung Rail attachment, it instead becomes a [[GP-30]]. It is correctly depicted firing VOG-25 caseless rounds, and the launcher is not flicked downwards to eject the spent casing as is common in first-person shooters.
[[File:GP-30.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-30 - 40mm]]
[[Image:GP-30BF3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The GP-30 mounted on an newer model AEK-971]]

==Heckler & Koch M320==
The [[Heckler & Koch M320]] is the standard grenade launcher of ''Battlefield 3''. The M320 can either be mounted on the rifle via the Underslung Rail attachment, or used in standalone. It can fire standard HE, buckshot, or smoke rounds. ''Close Quarters'' DLC added a "LVG" round for the M320; the name stands for "Low-velocity grenade" (and it does fly slower than the other grenade variants), but functionally the grenade is an HE grenade with a 3-second time fuze instead of an impact fuze, allowing it to bounce off walls.

==Pansarskott m/86==
The Pansarskott m/86, a Swedish version of the [[M136 AT4]] with a folding front grip, appears in the hands of US Marines. The m/86 only appears in the Singleplayer campaign. It is incorrectly referred to as an "RPG".
[[Image:Pskott86.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Pansarskott m/86, Swedish Army version of the M136 AT4 with folding foregrip - 84mm]]

[[Image:BF3-AT4-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Throughout the campaign, Matkovic carries a Pansarskott m/86 on his back.]]

==M224 Mortar==
At the start of "Operation Guillotine," Blackburn is tasked with briefly carrying an [[M224 Mortar]] as he advances with his fellow Marines; here it cannot be used by the player, and is used by NPCs to fire illumination rounds during the night-time mission. In multiplayer it can be used by the Support class; the M224 in multiplayer has infinite ammunition and can fire smoke or HE rounds. In singleplayer, it is shown with no baseplate fitted, which would make it practically impossible to actually use.

[[Image:BF3-M224-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn looks at the set-up M224, wondering when he can have a go.]]

==Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW==
The [[Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW]] appears as the American Engineer's unguided rocket launcher.
[[Image:Mk153SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW - 83mm]]
[[Image:BF3 SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player wields the MK 153 SMAW as he prepares to dish out some disproportionate retribution on some tumbleweeds for giving him allergies.]]

==RPG-7V2==
The [[RPG-7]] is featured as the Russian Engineer's unguided rocket launcher. It incorrectly shows it as 83 mm, which a PG-VL HEAT is 93 mm.

The weapon's Battlelog description states that it fires "GP-7VL" rocket propelled grenades, presumably a corruption or a typo of PG-7VL, even though the in-game weapon uses PG-7V grenades.

[[Image:Rrt877 rpg reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==SA-7 Grail==
The [[SA-7 Grail]] appears as the Russian Engineer's anti-air launcher, misnamed as an [[SA-18 Grouse]] (Russian: 9K38 Igla). As in the previous ''Battlefield'' games the name is given as "SA-18 Igla", using the US designation, but the Russian nickname.

[[Image:BF3 SA18 Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character holds an SA-7 in multiplayer as he wonders whether a checkpoint office counts as a vehicle.]]

==Training Set Guided Missile M134==
The "[[FIM-92 Stinger]]" in the game is actually an M134 training set with the rear-mounted performance indicator removed: it has "Tracking rainer" written on the gripstock unit (apparently referenced from a photograph where one T was not visible), a blue marking on the BCU well, and has a training battery that projects clear of the underside of the gripstock fitted instead of a normal BCU. It appears as the American Engineer's anti-air launcher. A Training Set with an infinite number of reloads is also found in the singleplayer mission "Rock and a Hard Place." As is normal in videogames, the iron sight is depicted as a digital sight complete with lock-on target boxes.

Amusingly, the "TRACKING RAINER" mark was later copied onto fake Stinger missiles fabricated by a group of Ukrainian separatist rebels, the Lugansk People's Republic, in 2015, who claimed these "weapons" were proof that the United States had been supplying military aid to the Ukrainian government.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===GL1===
The F2000's GL1 appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the F2000, mounted to the rifle.

===M203===
The [[M203]] appears on three Dog Tags. The first is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the M320/GP-30 where it appears not mounted to anything, the second is the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30, where it appears mounted to an M16A1, and the third is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the HK416, mounted to the rifle, just like it was in the ''Bad Company'' series.

=Explosives=

==M15 Anti-Tank mine==
The [[M15 anti-tank mine]] can be used by the Engineer kit. In Multiplayer mines that are placed can only be destroyed with explosives, shooting them has no effect, however Explosive FRAG rounds fired from shotguns will detonate the mine. The mine is pressure activated, meaning only something heavy like a vehicle will set it off, infantry running across will not detonate it.

[[Image:BF3 ATMine Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player ponders the idea of putting AT mines inside a tire and rolling them toward a tank.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
[[M18A1 Claymore]] anti-personnel mines can also be used by the Support kit. They are detonated by motion in front of the mine instead of the real Claymore's command detonation.
[[Image:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]
[[File:BF3 M18 Claymore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M18A1 Claymore in the hands of a US support.]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] is the primary grenade seen in ''Battlefield 3'', used by all factions. Instead of a grenade indicator, the body of the grenade flashes to make it more easily visible. Three grenades are carried in singleplayer. In multiplayer, every kit gets one as standard, but can equip two by using the "FRAG" specialization. There are two ways to throw grenades; either using a hotkey or by selecting the grenade as a weapon. The hotkey tosses the grenade instantly then switches back to the previously equipped weapon. Selecting the grenade manually allows multiple grenades to be thrown one after the other, and also allows the pin to be pulled and the grenade prepared for tossing - though as the spoon is held down, this does not actually "cook" the grenade's fuse.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AT-14 Spriggan==
The [[AT-14 Spriggan]] appears in the game as the Russian counter to the American BGM-71 TOW mentioned below, and is also a secondary weapon on the BMP-2M APC.

==BGM-71 TOW==
The [[BGM-71 TOW]] appears in the game as an emplaced anti-tank missile launcher for the US faction.

[[Image:Bf3 GM-71 TOW in Game 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another view of the same launcher.]]

==Browning M2HB==
The [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun appears in the game mounted on vehicles, including M1A2 Abrams tanks. In terms of gameplay, the M2HB behaves more like a medium machine gun, requiring three or four shots to kill infantry, and dozens to disable a vehicle. In multiplayer, M1 tanks can be fitted with an M2HB mounted above the main cannon. When mounted like this, the M2's rate of fire slows to about 400rpm but gains a damage bonus that puts its power more in line with its real life counterpart. These changes were likely made to keep heavy machine guns from being overly powerful compared to other weapons.

Note the TUSK gunshields for the missing loader's M240 are instead fitted to the M2.]]
[[Image:BF3-M2-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A M2HB mounted on M1161 "Growler" ITV.]]

==DShK heavy machine gun (mounting)==
Mountings for the [[DShK heavy machine gun]] can be seen on Iranian Type-72Z main battle tanks, modernised versions of the Russian T-55. These tanks seem to have been modelled from museum display vehicles, since the gun itself is missing from the mounting.
[[Image:DShKM-vehicle-mount.jpg|thumb|none|450px|DShKM heavy machine gun in standard vehicle mounting on a Romanian TR-85 main battle tank - 12.7x108mm]]

==GAU-8/A Avenger==
The [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground attack jet. The A-10 is not playable during campaign mode, but can be piloted in certain multiplayer maps, wherein the A-10's GAU-8/A is devastating against soft targets caught in the open.
[[Image:GAU-8A.jpg|thumb|450px|none|GAU-8/A Avenger complete with feed system and 1,174 round drum - 30x173mm]]

[[Image:BF3-GAU-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later in the mission Hawkins gets to call in gun runs from the A-10, here shown on thermal imaging.]]

==GE M134 Minigun==
The [[GE M134 Minigun]] is seen mounted on AH-6 Little Birds in both single and multiplayer.

==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
Two [[GAU-17/A]] miniguns are mounted on the sides of UH-1Y helicopters and the Russian faction's Kamov Ka-60 helicopter.

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-35BM Flanker-E fighter jet.
[[Image:GSH30 1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1 with ammo belt 30mm]]
[[Image:BF3-MiG-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|During the mission "Going Hunting," Hawkins faces several Su-35BM Flanker-E aircraft, incorrectly referred to throughout as "MiGs." This error is only present in the text in this mission; they are correctly named elsewhere in the game.]]

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-25TM (Su-39) Frogfoot ground attack jet.
[[Image:GSh-30-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2 30mm automatic cannon - 30x165mm]]

The Frogfoot here is basically firing a death ray with a deadzone around pieces of cover; moving out of cover is instant death during the time that counts as its attack even if it has already flown overhead and stopped firing.]]

==Kord==
The [[Kord heavy machine gun]] is mounted on the T-90A tank, Russian army buggies and Vodniks, and a number of technicals. It behaves very similarly to the [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun: more in line with a medium machine gun, and can be mounted on a T-90 with a lowered rate of fire but higher shot-for-shot damage.
[[Image:Kord 02.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Kord heavy machine gun with ammo box - 12.7x108mm]]

Real-life Iran apparently did not get the memo and still does not operate the T-90.]]

==M61 Vulcan==
The [[M61 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jets. M61s are also seen in Phalanx installations on American warships, and in multiplayer the US base is protected by a land-based Phalanx C-RAM installation. It should be noted that the game's campaign mode incorrectly shows the Hornet's M61A1 as being operated by the WSO, when in reality the gun is operated by the pilot.

==M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter.
[[Image:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]
[[Image:BF3-M197-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Miller looks up at a pair of friendly AH-1Z Vipers during the mission "Thunder Run."]]
[[Image:BF3-M197 Vulcan-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A closer look at an AH-1Z Viper's M197 Vulcan cannon.]]

==GAU-12/U==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-12/U|GAU-12/U]] is the main gun on the LAV-AD in multiplayer. It should be noted that the LAV-AD itself is technically anachronistic as it has been removed from service.

The GAU-12/U is also mounted on the AC-130 gunship. Interestingly, two additional 25mm guns are mounted to the top of the AC-130 as AA guns.
[[Image:GAU-12U.jpg|thumb|none|400px|General Dynamics GAU-12/U with unfired rounds - 25mm]]

==GAU-22/A==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-22/A|GAU-22/A]] appears in the game as the secondary weapon of F-35B Lightning II aircraft in the Back to Karkand DLC that is available in the revamped versions of Gulf of Oman and Wake Island. It is erroneously portrayed being mounted in a nacelle over the left side air intake; this is the case for the Air Force's F-35A while the B and C variants mount the GAU-22/A in an underslung external pod.
[[Image:F-35 GAU-22A.jpg|thumb|none|400px|GAU-22/A - 25mm]]

==M240C==
The [[M240C]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the M1A2 Abrams MBT.

==M242 Bushmaster==
The [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]] is the main gun of the LAV-25.

==Mk 19 Grenade Launcher==
The [[Mk 19 grenade launcher]] is seen mounted on M1114 Humvees and AAVP7A1 amphibious transports.
[[Image:US_Mk._19_40mm_grenade_machine-gun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Mk 19 grenade launcher on vehicle mount - 40mm]]

==QLZ-87==

==PKT==

==Shipunov 2A42==
The [[Shipunov 2A42]] appears in the game as the main gun of the BMP-2M and BTR-90 APCs, and the secondary armament of the Mi-28 Havoc helicopter.
[[Image:Shipunov 2A42.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Shipunov 2A42 - 30mm]]

'''''Battlefield 3''''' (also known as '''''BF3''''') is the twelfth installment of the ''[[Battlefield]]'' series. The game was developed by the Swedish company Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts in 2011 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. The game is powered by the proprietary Frostbite 2 engine, a further development of the engine used in the ''Bad Company'' games.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Battlefield 3'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Unlike earlier DICE games like ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]]'' and ''[[Medal of Honor (2010)|Medal of Honor]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s multiplayer, weapons in ''Battlefield 3'' correctly track + 1 in the chamber and have correct chambering reload animations during empty reloads.

=Handguns=

==Beretta M9==
In the beginning of the single-player mission "Semper Fidelis" and "The Great Destroyer", Blackburn acquires a [[Beretta M9]]. It can also be seen holstered on some US Marine throughout the single-player campaign. In multiplayer it is the starting handgun for US forces. In multiplayer, Players can unlock additional M9's outfitted with a Tactical Light and a Sound Suppressor separately as they level (rank) up.
[[Image:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm]]

[[Image:Bf3_M9_suppressed.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M9 with a suppressor. Different classes of weapon use different suppressor models, but those models are shared among the weapons of that class. The only exceptions to this are the G3A3 and SCAR-H CQC, which use the same model as the sniper rifles because of their caliber.]]

==="93R"===
The [[Beretta M9|M9]]'s model is also modified to be the [[Beretta 93R|"93R"]] in the game. The weapon is given a 93R's muzzle brake and folding foregrip, as well as being able to fire 3-round bursts, and uses 20 round magazines, can be unlocked as a sidearm in Co-Op requiring a 86,000 Co-Op Score.

[[Image:Bf3 93r reloading 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After replacing the magazine he operates the slide release; note the projecting base of the 20-round magazine and the two-handed grip used with this weapon.]]

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog. Called "G17C", although it is modeled after a standard Glock 17 as there are no compensator cuts on the top of the slide. It comes standard with a laser sight, while a variant that has both a laser sight and a suppressor is available as a later unlock. It is the only handgun that lets you equip two attachments at a time without either being a DICE developer, or having a certain DLC package. Also, all of the US Assault kit soldiers have a G17 in a chest holster in addition to whatever their selected sidearm is, and this G17 does not have a laser.

[[Image:BF3-Glock-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A dead PLR soldier with a Glock 17 at his side.]]

==Glock 18==
The third generation [[Glock 18]] appears as the "G18". It has an extended magazine base that gives it a 19 round capacity. Interestingly enough in the beta, the suppressed Glock 18 is unlocked before the standard unsuppressed variant (though this has been fixed in the regular game and the unsuppressed version is unlocked at Rank 30 with the suppressed variant unlocked at 41). Note that the Battlelog picture (seen below) lacks a fire selector, but is actually different than that G17's picture. This is most likely because it is from an early build of the game, as it appears correctly in-game. It is an incredibly effective sidearm in close quarters, but is useless at medium range and beyond unless burst fired.

[[File:BF3G18reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading; note the fire selector.]]

==MEU(SOC) Pistol==
The USMC variant of the M1911, the [[M45]], can be used if the player is a Battlefield Veteran or a member of the EA Gun Club. It is a standard M1911A1 with a three-hole trigger, a Springfield slide, commander-style hammer, beavertail grip safety, Pachmayr rubber grips, and uses 8 round magazines. It comes with additional variants that incorporate a Tactical Flashlight or Sound Suppressor. A variant with both aforementioned attachments (named ''M1911 S-TAC'') exist, but prior to the release of the ''End Game'' DLC, it was available only to DICE employees. For those with the DLC, a series of assignments need to be completed in order to unlock a final assignment, called "All about precision". After completing it (which require 20 headshots with pistols), the pistol is unlocked.

[[Image:BF3-MEU(SOC)-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Top view of the pistol.]]

==MP-412 REX==
The [[MP-412 REX]] revolver returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' as an unlockable sidearm that can only be unlocked by achieving a 5000 Co-Op Score. Unlike in ''Bad Company 2'', the top break cartridge ejector is seen in full effect actually ejecting spent rounds as opposed to "flicking" them out. It is considerably different by having a slightly faster rate of fire and being more effective at close range compared to its larger .44 cousin.

==MP-443 Grach==
The [[MP-443 Grach]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'' and is the Russian faction's sidearm. In Multiplayer the player unlocks the Tactical Light and Sound Suppressor as they level up instead of by gaining kills with the weapon. Its 17-round capacity can be considered anachronistic, as Russian forces have switched to 18-round magazines in 2004.

[[File:Bf3 MP-443 Grach reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mid-magazine reload.]]

==Taurus Model 44==
The [[Taurus Model 44]] appears as an unlockable sidearm, and can be fitted with a scope. Appears as ".44 Magnum", one of the few weapons in game that does not go by its proper name. In the campaign, the antagonist Solomon uses one as his personal sidearm. In multiplayer, a variant with a PK-A scope is fittingly unlocked at Rank 44. It has a slow rate of fire, but is a powerful weapon.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
A large number of weapons appear on dog tags associated with a similar weapon, weapon of the same family, weapon of the same category, or in a few cases, weapons that make no sense at all. As there are so many, the weapons found '''only''' on dog tags have been placed in their own category at the bottom of each class of weapon. This is to avoid confusion as to which weapons are actually in the game and which ones are only pictures.

=Submachine Guns=
Unlike previous games in the series, SMGs are all-class weapons, and not strictly limited to an Engineer/Spec Ops-type class.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] boasts a large ammo capacity at 50+1, a high rate of fire, and excellent accuracy at the expense of suffering from low damage at long distance. The weapon is capable of being used by all four classes in multiplayer.

==Heckler & Koch MP5KA4==
The [[MP5K|MP5KA4]] is added to BF3 via ''Close Quarters'' DLC, called M5K in BF3, comes standard with a 15 round magazine that incorrectly holds 20 rounds. However, the Extended Mags attachment gives it a 30 round magazine with the correct ammo count. Note that in Battlelog, its render is a MP5KN with the fire selector on safe, but in-game it is a MP5KA4 with the fire selector on full-auto. A correct three-round burst mode was added in a patch around the time of release for the ''Armored Kill'' expansion.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
The [[H&K MP7A1]] can be unlocked and used by any kit. It can use either a 20- or 40-round magazine. It must be unlocked in the Co-Op mode, requiring 34,000 Score. It does low damage to enemies, but has a very high rate of fire and manageable recoil to balance it out. An interesting thing to note is that this weapon has separate reload animations for the 20 and 40 round magazines (the 20 round magazine is dropped via the use of gravity, while the 40 round magazine is manually removed). The "reload-from-empty" animation on the MP7 has the player thumb an invisible bolt release, not reaching far enough to tab the lever.

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP|H&K UMP45]] can be used by all four classes, and has an ammo capacity of 25 + 1. The game correctly depicts the UMP's single / 2 round burst / full auto firing modes.
[[Image:UMP 45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch UMP45 - .45 ACP]]

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[Izhmash PP-19 Bizon|PP-19 Bizon-2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The weapon features a slightly inaccurate magazine capacity of 54 rounds (+ 1 in the chamber), whereas the real life 9x19mm Parabellum helical magazine has a max capacity of 53. However, the PP-19 in-game is chambered in the 9x18mm Makarov, although the lower magazine capacity could very well be for balancing purposes, as DICE may have felt 64 rounds in an SMG would be a tad unfair. Also to note, the PP-19 is the only 9x18mm Makarov weapon in the game.

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', feeling much more realistic this time around, with a more believable firing rate and packing a decent punch per shot, as opposed to the previous game, in which its firing rate was more akin to a Minigun and its power-per-shot around the area of lightly tossing a handful of pebbles at your opponent's face. Comes standard with a 20 round mag, and a 40 round extended mag can be unlocked.

=Shotguns=
For the first time in a main ''Battlefield'' series game (excluding spinoffs like ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]''), shotguns can be iron-sighted, and like the SMGs, can be used in every kit. In addition, DICE made it so that their shotguns have considerable range, unlike most video games where you have to see the whites of the enemies' eyes for shotguns to be effective.

In BF3, shotgun shells change color depending on which faction is using them; US Marines use red shells, and Russian Ground Forces use green shells.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M1014]] semi-automatic shotgun is found in ''Battlefield 3''. Magazine capacities available are either the civilian legal 4+1, or the full-length 6+1 (Indicating the use of 3-inch magnum rounds. The full-length tube normally holds seven 2.75-inch rounds). When reloading from empty, the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly, just like the 870 MCS.

[[Image:M4Super90.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Benelli M4 Super 90 with 7-shot tube - 12 gauge]]

[[Image:Rrt877 m1014 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|M1014 in MP, reloading.]]

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[SPAS-12]] is one of the 10 guns appearing in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. The weapon is restricted to pump action, and performs similarly to the 870MCS and has the same standard (4+1) and extended (6+1) capacities, but has a slower per-shell reload speed and each shell contains one less pellet than those of the 870. However, it's offset by a maximum rate of fire that is high enough to the point that the next shot can be fired way before the pump animation can finish, specifically at the brief moment where the action is fully to the rear.

The SPAS is also one of the strangest weapons to appear on a different weapon's Dog Tag; it appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the USAS-12. Other than four capital letters followed by "-12", both being 12-gauge, and that they were both in the ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company]]'' series, they have little in common. The ''Close Quarters'' DLC, which adds the SPAS-12, still has the USAS-12 displaying a SPAS-12 Dog Tag.

==M26 MASS==
The [[M26 MASS]] can be used only in the Assault kit in the "Gadget 1" slot. It may be used either as a standalone weapon, or mounted on any of the assault rifles if said rifle is equipped with the underslung rail. It can fire buckshot, flechettes, FRAG-12 rounds, or slugs, same as the other shotguns. The AEK-971 and AN-94 cannot mount the M26 MASS despite having underslung rails as an available attachment, possibly because it would interfere with both weapon's particular reload animation. A model glitch exists on some weapons that mount the M26 MASS where the charging handle will stay up even when the weapon is not in use.

==Pancor Jackhammer==
The [[Pancor Jackhammer]], called the "MK3A1", is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The appearance is highly unrealistic since only two fully automatic prototypes were ever produced; obviously, it does not emulate the real weapon's problems with failing to cycle in full-auto. It feeds from a 8-round magazine or a 12-round extended magazine, both incorrect; the real weapon feeds from a 10-round revolver style cylinder and does not chamber a round to gain a +1 as portrayed in the game.
[[Image:Jackhammer.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Pancor Jackhammer - 12 gauge]]
[[Image:BF3-Jackhammer-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Jackhammer on the customisation screen. Note the erroneous suppressor attachment that has since been patched out of the Jackhammer's available accessories list.]]

The foregrip is pushed forward to unlock and drop the "ammo cassette" (cylinder magazine), a fresh ammo cassette is inserted, and a release button on the trigger guard is pressed to retract the foregrip and lock the ammo cassette in place.]]

==Remington 870 MCS==
The [[Remington 870|Remington 870 MCS]] appears as the "870MCS". The player pumps the shotgun very quickly, which makes it seem almost semi-automatic in-game, like a pump action combat shotgun should be. Magazine capacities are either the standard 4+1, or the extended 6+1. As with the M1014, when reloading from empty the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly.

==Saiga 12K==
The [[Saiga 12K]] returns from ''Battlefield 2'' and is the second semi-auto shotgun unlocked. Magazine capacities are either the standard 6+1, or an extended 10+1 (originally 5+1 standard, and 8+1 extended, following the maximum factory capacity, changed after the 4th update).
[[Image:Saiga 12k-1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Saiga 12K - 12 gauge]]

For a finishing touch, the car exploded immediately afterwards.]]
[[Image:BF3-Saiga-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wary of any other weirdness, Dmitri reloads his Saiga 12K.]]

==SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper]] and the [[Armsel Protecta]] is included in ''Battlefield 3''. It features semi-automatic fire, has a thin winding key on the front of the drum magazine, and lacks a rear-mounted drum advance lever, which are features of the Street Sweeper, while it also has the Protecta's automatic shell ejection capabilities and therefore its large shell deflector (the Street Sweeper had to manually eject fired shells with an ejector rod, like a [[Colt Single Action Army]]). Conceptually, the hybrid is similar to Sentinel Arms' treatment of the Armsel Striker in their Striker-12, but the weapon lacks the Striker-12's unique thumb tab.

The weapon is referred to as the "DAO-12", as it was in ''[[Battlefield 2]]''; this stands for "double action only, 12 gauge" and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it. The name was kept as an homage to ''Battlefield 2''. The weapon has an incorrect capacity of 8-rounds by default, but the correct 12 if the extended magazine attachment is used. This is most likely for balance, so players can't use a semi-auto, 12 round shotgun AND 3 attachments on top of that.

[[File:Bf3 Cobray Street Sweeper reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and inserts the shells one at a time via the loading gate. The process is incorrect because the drum is never rotated after loading a round; DICE apparently assumed that the drum would automatically rotate during reloading like when firing, when in reality it has to be rotated manually while reloading (the reload is corrected in BF4). Note "12 GAUGE" and a fragmentation symbol visible on the shells.]]
[[File:BF3 DAO-12 winding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of an empty reload, the character winds the drum before loading it.]]

==USAS-12==
The [[USAS-12]] is the only full-auto shotgun in-game, barring the MK3A1 Jackhammer in ''Back to Karkand''. The magazine capacity is incorrectly 6+1 by standard or the correct 10+1 with the extended magazines equipped, most likely for balance, same as the Striker. When optics are attached, the carry handle is replaced by a strip of rails, meaning that the weapon becomes visually identical to the WM-12, an American semi-auto clone of the USAS-12. Like all shotguns, it can utilise standard Buckshot, Slugs, Flechettes and explosive FRAG-12 rounds as well as fit a variety of accessories and attachments.

=Assault Rifles & Battle Rifles=
==5.56A-91==
The [[5.56A-91]] appears as part of the incredibly vague "Compact Assault Rifle" classification, and thus is used by the Engineer kit. It does not have its 40mm grenade launcher. It is the successor to the [[9A-91]] from ''Bad Company 2'', albeit firing the 5.56mm NATO round instead of the 9A-91's 9x39mm one. Called "[[A-91]]" in the game, which refers to the 7.62x39mm variant.

==AK-74M==
The [[AK-74M]] is the standard assault rifle used by the Russian Assault kit. It is very accurate and has minimal recoil, but suffers from reduced damage compared to the M16A3.

==AN-94==
The [[AN-94]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series. The AN-94's dual-rate full-auto mode is correctly depicted in ''Battlefield 3''. In multiplayer, when set to burst, the weapon fires an 1800RPM 2-round burst, and when set to full auto, it fires the first two shots at 1800RPM, while the rest are fired at 600RPM. In the single-player campaign, the 2 round burst is shown to incorrectly fire at the 600 rpm as opposed to the correct 1800 rpm.

The AN-94 starts in 2-round burst mode by default. Before a patch, the weapon lacked the semi-automatic mode found on the real weapon, instead featuring only the 2-burst and full-auto modes.

An interesting note is that the player character uses the Speed Reload technique when reloading the AN-94, where he pushes the mag release and flicks the magazine out with another magazine, the same applies to the AEK-971.

==AS Val==
The [[AS Val]] appears as an all kit weapon, most likely due to its small size and unique integrated suppressor, making it too specialized for any specific kit. The March 2012 update added the option of using extended 30-round box magazines (the largest box mag available for the VSS/AS Val/SR-3 rifles) instead of the standard 20-rounders. However, the gun is still modelled with a 20-round magazine even with the extended magazine equipped.

==Colt M4LE Carbine==
Two versions of the [[M4 Carbine]] are found: the full-auto "M4A1" and the 3-round burst "M4". However, they are modeled after the civilian M4LE, as evidenced by the Safe/Fire selector switch. The model features a KAC RIS handguard, Crane SOPMOD stock, Hogue pistol grip, M16A1 flash hider, and Magpul Ranger Plates. In singleplayer, the "M4A1" is commonly seen in the hands of the main character. In multiplayer, being a carbine, the M4s are used by the Engineer kit. The "M4A1" is the starting weapon for US Engineers, while the "M4" is unlocked at 40,000 Engineer score.

Interestingly, the first "Fault Line" trailers showed the player rack the charging handle during an empty reload, which was changed to a press of the bolt release from the Operation Metro trailer onwards and into the release version.

[[File:Bf3 Colt M4A1 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M4 in multiplayer without any attachment.]]

==Colt Sporter Competition==
Both the 3-round burst "[[M16A4]]" and the full-auto "M16A3" are in fact modeled after the civilian Colt Sporter Competition, since they have a Safe/Fire selector switch, and they lack a bayonet lug. The model features an [[M16A1]] flash hider, a KAC RIS handguard with a rail cover on the right side rail, a Hogue pistol grip, a Magpul loop on the magazine, and a cloth sleeve wrapped around the stock.

The "M16A3" is the standard assault rifle used by the US Assault kit, and can be unlocked for the Russian Assault at 220,000 Assault points; the "M16A4" meanwhile is unlocked for both factions at 89,000 Assault points.

The "M16A4" was one of the first weapons to be shown in early gameplay footage, but was lacking rear iron sights and optical sights; these were added later on. Some later footage showed the M16 with the gas block missing when mounting sights, but this too was corrected in the final release.

==DIO KH2002 Sama==
Befitting the Iranian setting, the [[DIO KH2002|DIO KH2002 Sama]] bullpup assault rifle is one of the weapons in the game. The improved foregrip of the Sama model only appears if the Foregrip attachment is used in multiplayer. The in-game model fires 30 rounds form a 20 round STANAG magazine, however.

In campaign mode, the weapon is often found in the hands of Iranian Army soldiers after the PLR's hostile takeover. It fires in single shot and 3-round burst firing modes, and uses Russian optics. It can be unlocked for multiplayer use with a 17,000 co-op score.

==FAMAS Valorisé==
A [[FAMAS Valorisé]] (FAMAS Upgraded) is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. The weapon is incorrectly fitted with a G1/G2 trigger guard rather than the correct F1 style one and has had the bipod removed. In-game, the FAMAS uses the correct 25 round straight magazines.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series, and has much more realistic statistics, most notably that it doesn't have a fire rate resembling a minigun. Due to its lack of an underslung rail, an M320 or M26 MASS will always be carried as a standalone if the F2000 is equipped. The F2000 can mount a bipod and foregrip like the other assault rifles.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The first generation FN Mk 17 Mod 0, or [[FN SCAR-H CQC]], is used by the Engineer kit In multiplayer. A modeling mistakes shows the fire selector switch set on semi-auto as the weapon itself fires on full-auto by default.

==FN SCAR-L==
The first generation FN Mk 16 MOD 0, or [[SCAR-L]], is an assault rifle added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and is issued to the Assault kit. It's weaker than its bigger brother the SCAR-H because of its smaller round, but it boasts a slightly higher rate of fire (620 rpm) and extremely controllable recoil. It's unlocked by completing the 'Set us up the Bomb' assignment, which involves killing 20 enemies with an underslung grenade launcher and 15 enemies with hand grenades.

==Heckler & Koch G36 ("MG36")==
In the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, a [[Heckler & Koch G36]] with G36C rails, bipods, and Beta C-Mag drums appears as the "MG36"; the actual MG36 did not have such a configuration, and was a rare weapon with a total production run of around 100 units, facts that were even mentioned in the description. Used by the Support kit, the C-Mag is limited to 50+1 and requires the "Extended Magazines" attachment in order to use its full 100+1 capacity.

==Heckler & Koch G36C==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36C]] is seen in single player in the mission "Comrades". The model is based from 2008's DICE game [[Mirror's Edge]]. It can fire semi, auto, or two-round burst. In multiplayer, the G36C being a carbine is used by the engineer kit and uses opaque magazines.

==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
The [[G3A3]] is available in both single and multiplayer. It is an actual H&K G3A3, and not an Iranian clone. It has a wide handguard, and the fire selector markings are S-E-F. The Iranian-manufactured version differs in that it utilizes a slimline handguard and has Farsi writing on the receiver. It can be unlocked for use in multiplayer by gaining 160,000 Co-Op score.

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
The [[HK416]] returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' having a 10.4" barrel and OD furniture. It is the first unlock for the Assault kit and can have an M320 (which replaces the kit's Medkit) mounted as long as a grip or bipod are not. It once again appears as the "M416," seemingly just because that's what it was called in the ''Bad Company'' games since it is no longer shown as a standardised US military weapon in singleplayer. At release, it featured semi-auto, burst, and full-auto modes, something that isn't typically possible with AR-15 type rifles and derivatives. A patch in December of 2011 removed the burst mode for PC, and as of the March 2012 patch, the Xbox 360 and PS3 version's M416 has it removed as well. The BF3 HK416 uses the older M4 Gen II style stock and a Tangodown pistol grip. Newer variants utilize HK's in-house stock and grip designs.

==Heckler & Koch HK53==
The [[HK53]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the G53. It was listed in game under its original "HK53" name on the PS3 version until a patch altered it to G53 as used in the PC and X360 versions. It is a compact version of the HK33 rifle, and as a carbine, it can be used by the Engineer kit.

==L85A2==
The [[L85A2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. It features very high accuracy, low recoil and better hip-fire accuracy due to its bullpup configuration but suffers in close quarters due to its 650 RPM rate of fire. It also cannot mount an underslung M320 like it can in real life.

==Magpul PDR==
The [[Magpul PDR]], a compact bullpup assault rifle development of which was abandoned the year the game came out, appears as an all kit weapon. For unknown reasons, it appears as the "PDW-R" (most likely standing for Personal Defence Weapon-Rifle). Uses either 20 or 30 round polymer magazines, with 20 being the default option.

==SIG SG 553==
The [[SIG SG 553]] appears in ''Battlefield 3'' with a railed handguard. The in-game model's serial numbers points to its modeling reference being a SIG SG 553-1 SP semi-auto only model (the one on the reference image below in particular), though the in-game weapon still has the automatic firing options of the standard SIG SG 553. In multiplayer, being a carbine, it is used by the Engineer kit. It can only be unlocked in Co-Op by achieving a score of 120,000. In the campaign mode, the SG 553 is found in two places. The first is in "Comrades", where a police officer exiting the van has one, and the other one being found by the player after the train crashes in "The Great Destroyer".

==Remington ACR==
The [[Remington ACR]] joins the arsenal of ''Battlefield 3'' as part of the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and was first seen in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay video. It is named "ACW-R" (likely meaning 'Adaptive Combat Weapon - Rifle') much like the "PDW-R". It boasts a high rate of fire with controllable recoil and features a 26 round capacity in a 30 round 5.56mm PMAG magazine. Developers have stated that the "ACW-R" in-game is chambered for 6.5x38mm Grendel, which explains the round capacity. Newer revisions of the Remington ACR have features not reflected in this game model, such as an angled / folding charging handle and an updated lighter-weight rail.

==Steyr AUG A3-CQC==
The [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]] was added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It serves a similar role to the M416, a stable gun with a steady 700 rpm rate of fire and easy to control recoil. The AUG A3-CQC is unique, as it's the only bullpup assault rifle that can mount an underslung weapon. It was first shown in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay trailer and in pre-release screenshots. It is very accurate and has controllable recoil, making it an effective assault rifle. It is unlocked by completing the "Shepard" assignment which involves 10 squad revives and 30 kills with assault rifles.

==MTAR-21==
The [[IMI Micro Tavor MTAR-21]] is a carbine added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It features high recoil due to its short barrel and high rate of fire. In CQB it's capable of mowing down enemies with little trouble due to its 900 rpm rate of fire, but the recoil severely limits its long range capabilities.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===M16A1===
The Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30 shows an [[M203]] mounted to an [[M16A1]], complete with the heatshield handguard.

===M16A2===
The Dog Tag the player receives for 500 kills with the M16A3/A4 shows an [[M16A2]] instead.

===FAMAS===
A [[FAMAS]] (G2?) appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the FAMAS.

===FN F2000===
The standard version of the F2000, with its built in scope, appears on the 500 kill Dog Tag for the F2000 Tactical.

===FN Mk 16 Mod 0 (SCAR-L)===
100 Kills with either the SCAR-H carbine or the SCAR-L assault rifle earns the player a SCAR-L dog tag. The release of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC (which introduced the SCAR-L) has not brought along a proper dog tag for the SCAR-H.

=Machine Guns=
==Heckler & Koch M27 IAR==
The [[Heckler & Koch M27 IAR]] is the starting weapon for the US support class, and uses a 45-round extended magazine. It is shown with a 4-vent handguard, but the correct extended barrel for the version is shown, the handguard simply covering less of it.

==LSAT Light Machine Gun==
The [[LSAT|LSAT Light Machine Gun]] is a light machine gun added to ''Battlefield 3'' through the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. In-game it uses the configuration that loads polymer-cased ammunition. It is unlocked by completing the "Point Blank" assignment, which involves 10 kills with C4 and 10 knife takedowns.

==M240B==
The [[M240B]] appears in the hands of some US Marines, and in the hands of the player character, fitted with an EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS). The weapon features a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.

==M249==
An [[M249]] is featured in the game, identified by its STANAG magazine well. It has a fixed buttstock, short paratrooper barrel, and the railed heat shield of the Mk 46 Mod 0. This configuration is typical of Airsoft "Mk 46" guns which have Mk 46 features but retain their STANAG wells.

[[Image:BF3-SAW-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn sets up the bipod of his SAW.]]

==M60E4==
The [[M60E4]] is the last MG to be unlocked in the Support kit. Extended magazines gifts the weapon with a massive 200 round box and this is visually shown on the weapon when attached.
[[Image:M60E4-mk43.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M60E4 Mk.43 with Picatinny rails, RIS foregrip, and ammo belt - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==QBB-95==
The [[QBB-95]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Support kit. It uses 75-round drums, and has the highest capacity of any weapon in the game besides belt-fed LMGs.

==QJY-88==
The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', once again called the "Type 88". This isn't wrong per se (the weapon is named "Type 88 GPMG" in Chinese), but quite odd, as the QBZ-95B, QBB-95, and QBU-88 all use their proper "QB" designations.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears in the game. It features high stopping power like other 7.62 weapons, and is more accurate than other LMGs, but has a sharp vertical recoil and less than optimal mobility due to its weight.
[[Image:Pecheneg.jpg|thumb|450px|none|PKP Pecheneg machine gun with ammo box - 7.62x54mmR]]

==RPK==
The [[RPK light machine gun]] is the starting weapon for the Russian Support class. It is referred to in game as an "[[RPK light machine gun#RPK-74|RPK-74M]]", a modernised 5.45x39mm version with synthetic furnishings and a flash hider, despite that it is shown with a 7.62x39mm magazine and no flash hider. The weapon's damage matches the idea that it is a -74 model, as it is scaled to the 5.56mm machine guns, as opposed to behaving like a 7.62x39. When mounting optics the weapon gains side-mounted bracket for attaching them; if it does not mount optics, the bracket is not present. It can sometimes be found fitted with a vertical front grip attached to the underside of the handguard.

==L86A1==
The [[Enfield L86A1]] is a weapon added as a part of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC. In game it's named the "L86A2" and features a 45+1 magazine, despite being modelled with a 30 round one. Like in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]] its rear foregrip is unused. In game it handles much like the L85A2. Its low rate of fire is balanced by its low recoil. It comes with a bipod by default.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===MG36===
Despite the fact that BF3's "MG36" is a hybrid of G36 variants, a configuration correct for an actual MG36 appears on the Dog Tag the player is awarded with for getting 500 kills with it.

=Sniper Rifles=
Unusually, Recon players can opt for low-magnification optics, unmagnified reflex/red-dot sights, or even iron-sights in lieu of the standard high-magnification optics.

==Barrett M98B==
The [[Barrett M98B|M98B]] is the last bolt action unlocked. It is incredibly accurate and powerful, but is heavy and suffers from substantial sway unless a bipod is used. For balance reasons the magazine capacity is limited to 5 rounds instead of the real world's 10.
[[Image:0129481.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Barrett M98B with Harris bipod - .338 Lapua Magnum]]

[[Image:BF3-98B-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn has M98B at the entrance to the basement of the bank.]]

==Barrett M107==
The [[Barrett M107]] is available in the game, however, DICE felt that the .50 caliber round it uses would either be overpowered if depicted properly, or feel useless if kept balanced, so they opted to simply not have it in multiplayer. It only appears in the singleplayer level "Kaffarov", where player character Dmitri Mayakovsky acquires it due to a somewhat bizarre series of events that don't seem to play out quite the way they were intended to. Here, it is equipped with a thermal scope.

==Accuracy International AWM-F==
The [[Accuracy International AWM|Accuracy International AWM-F]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the "L96" (the British designation of the Accuracy International Precision Marksman; the actual British designation of the AWM is L115A1/A3), and can be used by the Recon kit. True to its reputation, the gun is extremely accurate at long ranges, with minimal bullet drop allowing for precise headshots. Its ballistics are modeled after the L96A1's 7.62 NATO chambering rather the the AW Magnum's .338 Lapua.

==MKEK JNG-90==
The [[MKEK JNG-90]] was included for the Recon class in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. To acquire it, the player would have to complete an assignment.
[[Image:JNG-90.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MKEK JNG-90 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M14 (in Sage chassis)==
An [[M14]] in a Sage chassis appears as a sniper rifle in the Recon class, though it is incorrectly referred to as the [[M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle|M39 EMR]]. It is unlocked when the player receives 58,000 Co-Op Score.
[[Image:Sagem14 09-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M14 with Sage stock and scope - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

[[Image:Rrt877 ebr reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer simultaneously reloads the M14 and demonstrates that ''Battlefield 3'' does not necessary require you to have a sniper scope on your sniper rifle.]]

==M40A5==
The [[M40A5 Sniper Rifle]] is the second bolt-action rifle unlocked for the Recon class. It has lower muzzle velocity than the other bolt-action rifles, but benefits from the fastest cycle time between shots and moderately low sway.
[[Image:M40A5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M40A5 sniper rifle with Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M40-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds a suppressed M40A5 fitted with an IR scope during the mission "Night Shift."]]

==HK417==
The Heckler and Koch [[HK417]] is added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. Much like the HK53 and the HK416, it lacks the 'HK' prefix and is instead called the M417 in game. It's limited to semi-automatic fire in game and features a 20 round magazine. In game it performs as a hybrid of the Mk11/M39/SVD and the SKS. It has the damage of the MK11/M39/SVD with the capacity of the SKS and a rate of fire that's inbetween the two. It has manageable recoil, and comes with a 8x scope by default. It comes correctly equipped with early-production 20-round HK417 magazines, but are colored grayish instead of transparent. This can be easily seen by looking at the magazine while crawling.

==Knight's Armament SR-25==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25]] appears in BF3 under the name Mk 11 Mod 0, its designation in SOCOM. It is found occasionally in the single-player campaign. It is the default rifle for the US Recon kit in multiplayer, outfitted by standard with a 8x rifle scope.

==Norinco NDM-86==
The .308 variant of the [[Norinco NDM-86]] returns from ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]'', once again appearing as the ''[[SVD]]'' It is default for the Russian Recon Kit sporting a PKS-07 7x Scope by default, though the correct PSO-1 4x scope is the first attachment unlocked at only 10 kills.

==QBU-88==
The [[QBU-88]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Recon kit.
[[Image:Qbu-88-0.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Norinco QBU-88 - 5.8x42mm]]

==M59/66 SKS==
The Yugoslavian M59/66 variant of the [[SKS]] appears in-game, with synthetic Tapco furniture and uses 20 round magazines. It can be identified as the Yugoslavian variant by the design of the front sight with an integrated grenade sight, and by its muzzle device. It is a good choice for close range compared to other Recon-class rifles due to its higher mobility/low weight, 20-round capacity and low recoil, at the cost of less hitting power and range.

=Launchers=
==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin|Javelin]] appears and can be used in either top-down or direct-fire modes, and obviously needs a lock to fire. In the campaign, Blackburn uses one during "Operation Guillotine;" here it has infinite ammunition. During the latter sequence, the Javelin is shown firing at absurdly short range; in real life it has a minimum range of around 250 feet.

[[Image:BF3-Javelin-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds the Javelin. Note the help text misidentifies it as a SMAW.]]

==GP-30==
If the M320 is mounted to a Russian weapon (namely the AEK-971, AK-74M, and AN-94) through the Underslung Rail attachment, it instead becomes a [[GP-30]]. It is correctly depicted firing VOG-25 caseless rounds, and the launcher is not flicked downwards to eject the spent casing as is common in first-person shooters.
[[File:GP-30.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-30 - 40mm]]
[[Image:GP-30BF3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The GP-30 mounted on an newer model AEK-971]]

==Heckler & Koch M320==
The [[Heckler & Koch M320]] is the standard grenade launcher of ''Battlefield 3''. The M320 can either be mounted on the rifle via the Underslung Rail attachment, or used in standalone. It can fire standard HE, buckshot, or smoke rounds. ''Close Quarters'' DLC added a "LVG" round for the M320; the name stands for "Low-velocity grenade" (and it does fly slower than the other grenade variants), but functionally the grenade is an HE grenade with a 3-second time fuze instead of an impact fuze, allowing it to bounce off walls.

==Pansarskott m/86==
The Pansarskott m/86, a Swedish version of the [[M136 AT4]] with a folding front grip, appears in the hands of US Marines. The m/86 only appears in the Singleplayer campaign. It is incorrectly referred to as an "RPG".
[[Image:Pskott86.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Pansarskott m/86, Swedish Army version of the M136 AT4 with folding foregrip - 84mm]]

[[Image:BF3-AT4-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The results of using it are fairly predictable. "Good effect on target!"]]
[[Image:BF3-AT4-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Throughout the campaign, Matkovic carries a Pansarskott m/86 on his back.]]

==M224 Mortar==
At the start of "Operation Guillotine," Blackburn is tasked with briefly carrying an [[M224 Mortar]] as he advances with his fellow Marines; here it cannot be used by the player, and is used by NPCs to fire illumination rounds during the night-time mission. In multiplayer it can be used by the Support class; the M224 in multiplayer has infinite ammunition and can fire smoke or HE rounds. In singleplayer, it is shown with no baseplate fitted, which would make it practically impossible to actually use.

[[Image:BF3-M224-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn looks at the set-up M224, wondering when he can have a go.]]

==Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW==
The [[Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW]] appears as the American Engineer's unguided rocket launcher.
[[Image:Mk153SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW - 83mm]]
[[Image:BF3 SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player wields the MK 153 SMAW as he prepares to dish out some disproportionate retribution on some tumbleweeds for giving him allergies.]]

==RPG-7V2==
The [[RPG-7]] is featured as the Russian Engineer's unguided rocket launcher. It incorrectly shows it as 83 mm, which a PG-VL HEAT is 93 mm.

The weapon's Battlelog description states that it fires "GP-7VL" rocket propelled grenades, presumably a corruption or a typo of PG-7VL, even though the in-game weapon uses PG-7V grenades.

[[Image:Rrt877 rpg reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==SA-7 Grail==
The [[SA-7 Grail]] appears as the Russian Engineer's anti-air launcher, misnamed as an [[SA-18 Grouse]] (Russian: 9K38 Igla). As in the previous ''Battlefield'' games the name is given as "SA-18 Igla", using the US designation, but the Russian nickname.
[[Image:800px-SA-7.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-7 Grail launcher and missile - 72mm]]
[[Image:BF3BL9K38.jpg|thumb|none|350px|In-game render of the SA-7.]]
[[Image:BF3 SA18 Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character holds an SA-7 in multiplayer as he wonders whether a checkpoint office counts as a vehicle.]]

==Training Set Guided Missile M134==
The "[[FIM-92 Stinger]]" in the game is actually an M134 training set with the rear-mounted performance indicator removed: it has "Tracking rainer" written on the gripstock unit (apparently referenced from a photograph where one T was not visible), a blue marking on the BCU well, and has a training battery that projects clear of the underside of the gripstock fitted instead of a normal BCU. It appears as the American Engineer's anti-air launcher. A Training Set with an infinite number of reloads is also found in the singleplayer mission "Rock and a Hard Place." As is normal in videogames, the iron sight is depicted as a digital sight complete with lock-on target boxes.

Amusingly, the "TRACKING RAINER" mark was later copied onto fake Stinger missiles fabricated by a group of Ukrainian separatist rebels, the Lugansk People's Republic, in 2015, who claimed these "weapons" were proof that the United States had been supplying military aid to the Ukrainian government.

[[Image:BF3-Stinger-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds another "Stinger" as the Frogfoot manages one last dramatic flyby. "I regret nothing!"]]

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===GL1===
The F2000's GL1 appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the F2000, mounted to the rifle.

===M203===
The [[M203]] appears on three Dog Tags. The first is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the M320/GP-30 where it appears not mounted to anything, the second is the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30, where it appears mounted to an M16A1, and the third is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the HK416, mounted to the rifle, just like it was in the ''Bad Company'' series.

=Explosives=

==M15 Anti-Tank mine==
The [[M15 anti-tank mine]] can be used by the Engineer kit. In Multiplayer mines that are placed can only be destroyed with explosives, shooting them has no effect, however Explosive FRAG rounds fired from shotguns will detonate the mine. The mine is pressure activated, meaning only something heavy like a vehicle will set it off, infantry running across will not detonate it.

[[Image:Landmine-dod-closeup.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M15 Anti-Tank mine]]
[[Image:BF3 ATMine Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player ponders the idea of putting AT mines inside a tire and rolling them toward a tank.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
[[M18A1 Claymore]] anti-personnel mines can also be used by the Support kit. They are detonated by motion in front of the mine instead of the real Claymore's command detonation.
[[Image:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]
[[File:BF3 M18 Claymore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M18A1 Claymore in the hands of a US support.]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] is the primary grenade seen in ''Battlefield 3'', used by all factions. Instead of a grenade indicator, the body of the grenade flashes to make it more easily visible. Three grenades are carried in singleplayer. In multiplayer, every kit gets one as standard, but can equip two by using the "FRAG" specialization. There are two ways to throw grenades; either using a hotkey or by selecting the grenade as a weapon. The hotkey tosses the grenade instantly then switches back to the previously equipped weapon. Selecting the grenade manually allows multiple grenades to be thrown one after the other, and also allows the pin to be pulled and the grenade prepared for tossing - though as the spoon is held down, this does not actually "cook" the grenade's fuse.
[[Image:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|250px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[Image:BF3-M67-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn readies an M67 grenade.]]

==M84 stun grenade==
Blackburn uses an [[M84 stun grenade]] to disorient a group of PLR fighters at the bottom of an elevator shaft.
[[File:M84-Flash-Bang-Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|M84 stun grenade]]
[[Image:BF3-Flashbang-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn, after managing not to fall to his death while rappelling down an elevator, readies an M84 "flashbang" grenade.]]
[[Image:BF3-Flashbang-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn throws the grenade. This frame and the next both show that, in common with many modern shooters, the thrown model is the same as the "in world" model for this grenade and so the safety lever is still attached.]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==AT-14 Spriggan==
The [[AT-14 Spriggan]] appears in the game as the Russian counter to the American BGM-71 TOW mentioned below, and is also a secondary weapon on the BMP-2M APC.
[[Image:AT14-Spriggan.JPG|thumb|none|400px|AT-14 Spriggan launcher and missile - 152mm]]

[[File:BF3 Kornet (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the ATGM.]]

==BGM-71 TOW==
The [[BGM-71 TOW]] appears in the game as an emplaced anti-tank missile launcher for the US faction.
[[Image:Tow 07.jpg|thumb|none|400px|BGM-71 TOW on M220 tripod - 152mm]]
[[Image:Bf3 GM-71 TOW in Game 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer tracks down a TOW launcher.]]
[[Image:Bf3 GM-71 TOW in Game 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another view of the same launcher.]]

==Browning M2HB==
The [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun appears in the game mounted on vehicles, including M1A2 Abrams tanks. In terms of gameplay, the M2HB behaves more like a medium machine gun, requiring three or four shots to kill infantry, and dozens to disable a vehicle. In multiplayer, M1 tanks can be fitted with an M2HB mounted above the main cannon. When mounted like this, the M2's rate of fire slows to about 400rpm but gains a damage bonus that puts its power more in line with its real life counterpart. These changes were likely made to keep heavy machine guns from being overly powerful compared to other weapons.
[[Image:BrowningM2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Browning M2HB heavy machine gun in vehicle mount - .50 BMG]]
[[Image:BF3-M2-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the end of "Uprising," Blackburn takes control of an M2HB mounted on a Humvee as he defends a landing zone until a V-22 Osprey can extract the scattered Marines.]]
[[Image:BF3-M2-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Near the end of "Thunder Run," Sergeant Jonathan Miller mans his tank's .50 cal. It seems in the game's fiction the US Marine Corps has upgraded their Abrams tanks, since Anvil 3 is an M1A2, currently used only by the US Army. Note the TUSK gunshields for the missing loader's M240 are instead fitted to the M2.]]
[[Image:BF3-M2-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A M2HB mounted on M1161 "Growler" ITV.]]

==DShK heavy machine gun (mounting)==
Mountings for the [[DShK heavy machine gun]] can be seen on Iranian Type-72Z main battle tanks, modernised versions of the Russian T-55. These tanks seem to have been modelled from museum display vehicles, since the gun itself is missing from the mounting.
[[Image:DShKM-vehicle-mount.jpg|thumb|none|450px|DShKM heavy machine gun in standard vehicle mounting on a Romanian TR-85 main battle tank - 12.7x108mm]]

==GAU-8/A Avenger==
The [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground attack jet. The A-10 is not playable during campaign mode, but can be piloted in certain multiplayer maps, wherein the A-10's GAU-8/A is devastating against soft targets caught in the open.
[[Image:GAU-8A.jpg|thumb|450px|none|GAU-8/A Avenger complete with feed system and 1,174 round drum - 30x173mm]]

[[Image:BF3-GAU-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later in the mission Hawkins gets to call in gun runs from the A-10, here shown on thermal imaging.]]

==GE M134 Minigun==
The [[GE M134 Minigun]] is seen mounted on AH-6 Little Birds in both single and multiplayer.
[[Image:M134.JPG|thumb|none|400px|General Electric M134 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M134-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AH-6 "Little Bird" opens fire with its M134 minigun. Note that tracers are treated as solid by the engine, meaning the underside of what should be a bright light source is shown in shadow here. This is only really visible in stills.]]

==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
Two [[GAU-17/A]] miniguns are mounted on the sides of UH-1Y helicopters and the Russian faction's Kamov Ka-60 helicopter.
[[Image:GAU-17A HH60.jpg|thumb|none|400px|General Dynamics GAU-17/A, US Air Force version of the M134 Minigun - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-35BM Flanker-E fighter jet.
[[Image:GSH30 1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1 with ammo belt 30mm]]
[[Image:BF3-MiG-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|During the mission "Going Hunting," Hawkins faces several Su-35BM Flanker-E aircraft, incorrectly referred to throughout as "MiGs." This error is only present in the text in this mission; they are correctly named elsewhere in the game.]]

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-25TM (Su-39) Frogfoot ground attack jet.
[[Image:GSh-30-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2 30mm automatic cannon - 30x165mm]]

[[Image:BF3-Frogfoot-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|It soon returns for a series of gun runs as Blackburn has to move from cover to cover to find a Stinger. The Frogfoot here is basically firing a death ray with a deadzone around pieces of cover; moving out of cover is instant death during the time that counts as its attack even if it has already flown overhead and stopped firing.]]

==Kord==
The [[Kord heavy machine gun]] is mounted on the T-90A tank, Russian army buggies and Vodniks, and a number of technicals. It behaves very similarly to the [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun: more in line with a medium machine gun, and can be mounted on a T-90 with a lowered rate of fire but higher shot-for-shot damage.
[[Image:Kord 02.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Kord heavy machine gun with ammo box - 12.7x108mm]]

[[Image:BF3-Kord-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A T-90 MBT opens fire with its main gun, the massive muzzle flash illuminating the commander's Kord heavy machine gun. The tank is used by the Iranian Army, presumably supposed to have been purchased at some point between the game's release in 2011 and the distant future setting of 2014 when the storyline takes place. Real-life Iran apparently did not get the memo and still does not operate the T-90.]]

==M61 Vulcan==
The [[M61 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jets. M61s are also seen in Phalanx installations on American warships, and in multiplayer the US base is protected by a land-based Phalanx C-RAM installation. It should be noted that the game's campaign mode incorrectly shows the Hornet's M61A1 as being operated by the WSO, when in reality the gun is operated by the pilot.
[[Image:M61vulcan.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M61 Vulcan - 20mm]]

[[Image:BF3-M61-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The two Hornets ''Shark 4-2'' and ''Shark 4-6'' overfly the US fleet, giving plenty of glimpses of Phalanx installations on the various ships.]]

==M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter.
[[Image:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]
[[Image:BF3-M197-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Miller looks up at a pair of friendly AH-1Z Vipers during the mission "Thunder Run."]]
[[Image:BF3-M197 Vulcan-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A closer look at an AH-1Z Viper's M197 Vulcan cannon.]]

==GAU-12/U==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-12/U|GAU-12/U]] is the main gun on the LAV-AD in multiplayer. It should be noted that the LAV-AD itself is technically anachronistic as it has been removed from service.

The GAU-12/U is also mounted on the AC-130 gunship. Interestingly, two additional 25mm guns are mounted to the top of the AC-130 as AA guns.
[[Image:GAU-12U.jpg|thumb|none|400px|General Dynamics GAU-12/U with unfired rounds - 25mm]]
[[Image:BF3-GAU-12U.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A GAU-12/U mounted on an LAV-AD.]]

==GAU-22/A==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-22/A|GAU-22/A]] appears in the game as the secondary weapon of F-35B Lightning II aircraft in the Back to Karkand DLC that is available in the revamped versions of Gulf of Oman and Wake Island. It is erroneously portrayed being mounted in a nacelle over the left side air intake; this is the case for the Air Force's F-35A while the B and C variants mount the GAU-22/A in an underslung external pod.
[[Image:F-35 GAU-22A.jpg|thumb|none|400px|GAU-22/A - 25mm]]

==M240C==
The [[M240C]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the M1A2 Abrams MBT.
[[Image:M240C.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M240C machine gun - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M240C-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Miller runs back towards the tank column after retrieving the "clicker" trigger for an M58 Mine Clearing Line Charge.]]

==M242 Bushmaster==
The [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]] is the main gun of the LAV-25.

==Mk 19 Grenade Launcher==
The [[Mk 19 grenade launcher]] is seen mounted on M1114 Humvees and AAVP7A1 amphibious transports.
[[Image:US_Mk._19_40mm_grenade_machine-gun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Mk 19 grenade launcher on vehicle mount - 40mm]]

==QLZ-87==
The [[Norinco QL-series grenade launchers|Norinco QLZ-87]] appears in the ''Aftermath'' DLC, mounted on the Russian "Barsuk" (Badger) modification of the GAZ 3937 Vodnik truck.
[[image: QLZ87Light.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Norinco QLZ-87 - 35x32mm]]

==PKT==
The [[PKT]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the T-90A and T-72 MBTs.
[[Image:Machine gun PKT.jpg|thumb|none|450px|PKT machine gun with 250-round ammo drum - 7.62x54mm R]]

==Shipunov 2A42==
The [[Shipunov 2A42]] appears in the game as the main gun of the BMP-2M and BTR-90 APCs, and the secondary armament of the Mi-28 Havoc helicopter.
[[Image:Shipunov 2A42.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Shipunov 2A42 - 30mm]]

'''''Battlefield 3''''' (also known as '''''BF3''''') is the twelfth installment of the ''[[Battlefield]]'' series. The game was developed by the Swedish company Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts in 2011 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. The game is powered by the proprietary Frostbite 2 engine, a further development of the engine used in the ''Bad Company'' games.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Battlefield 3'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Unlike earlier DICE games like ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]]'' and ''[[Medal of Honor (2010)|Medal of Honor]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s multiplayer, weapons in ''Battlefield 3'' correctly track + 1 in the chamber and have correct chambering reload animations during empty reloads.

=Handguns=

==Beretta M9==
In the beginning of the single-player mission "Semper Fidelis" and "The Great Destroyer", Blackburn acquires a [[Beretta M9]]. It can also be seen holstered on some US Marine throughout the single-player campaign. In multiplayer it is the starting handgun for US forces. In multiplayer, Players can unlock additional M9's outfitted with a Tactical Light and a Sound Suppressor separately as they level (rank) up.

The only exceptions to this are the G3A3 and SCAR-H CQC, which use the same model as the sniper rifles because of their caliber.]]

==="93R"===
The [[Beretta M9|M9]]'s model is also modified to be the [[Beretta 93R|"93R"]] in the game. The weapon is given a 93R's muzzle brake and folding foregrip, as well as being able to fire 3-round bursts, and uses 20 round magazines, can be unlocked as a sidearm in Co-Op requiring a 86,000 Co-Op Score.

[[Image:Bf3 93r reloading 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After replacing the magazine he operates the slide release; note the projecting base of the 20-round magazine and the two-handed grip used with this weapon.]]

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog. Called "G17C", although it is modeled after a standard Glock 17 as there are no compensator cuts on the top of the slide. It comes standard with a laser sight, while a variant that has both a laser sight and a suppressor is available as a later unlock. It is the only handgun that lets you equip two attachments at a time without either being a DICE developer, or having a certain DLC package. Also, all of the US Assault kit soldiers have a G17 in a chest holster in addition to whatever their selected sidearm is, and this G17 does not have a laser.

[[Image:BF3-Glock-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A dead PLR soldier with a Glock 17 at his side.]]

==Glock 18==
The third generation [[Glock 18]] appears as the "G18". It has an extended magazine base that gives it a 19 round capacity. Interestingly enough in the beta, the suppressed Glock 18 is unlocked before the standard unsuppressed variant (though this has been fixed in the regular game and the unsuppressed version is unlocked at Rank 30 with the suppressed variant unlocked at 41). Note that the Battlelog picture (seen below) lacks a fire selector, but is actually different than that G17's picture. This is most likely because it is from an early build of the game, as it appears correctly in-game. It is an incredibly effective sidearm in close quarters, but is useless at medium range and beyond unless burst fired.

[[File:BF3G18reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading; note the fire selector.]]

==MEU(SOC) Pistol==
The USMC variant of the M1911, the [[M45]], can be used if the player is a Battlefield Veteran or a member of the EA Gun Club. It is a standard M1911A1 with a three-hole trigger, a Springfield slide, commander-style hammer, beavertail grip safety, Pachmayr rubber grips, and uses 8 round magazines. It comes with additional variants that incorporate a Tactical Flashlight or Sound Suppressor. A variant with both aforementioned attachments (named ''M1911 S-TAC'') exist, but prior to the release of the ''End Game'' DLC, it was available only to DICE employees. For those with the DLC, a series of assignments need to be completed in order to unlock a final assignment, called "All about precision". After completing it (which require 20 headshots with pistols), the pistol is unlocked.

[[Image:BF3-MEU(SOC)-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Top view of the pistol.]]

==MP-412 REX==
The [[MP-412 REX]] revolver returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' as an unlockable sidearm that can only be unlocked by achieving a 5000 Co-Op Score. Unlike in ''Bad Company 2'', the top break cartridge ejector is seen in full effect actually ejecting spent rounds as opposed to "flicking" them out. It is considerably different by having a slightly faster rate of fire and being more effective at close range compared to its larger .44 cousin.

==MP-443 Grach==
The [[MP-443 Grach]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'' and is the Russian faction's sidearm. In Multiplayer the player unlocks the Tactical Light and Sound Suppressor as they level up instead of by gaining kills with the weapon. Its 17-round capacity can be considered anachronistic, as Russian forces have switched to 18-round magazines in 2004.

==Taurus Model 44==
The [[Taurus Model 44]] appears as an unlockable sidearm, and can be fitted with a scope. Appears as ".44 Magnum", one of the few weapons in game that does not go by its proper name. In the campaign, the antagonist Solomon uses one as his personal sidearm. In multiplayer, a variant with a PK-A scope is fittingly unlocked at Rank 44. It has a slow rate of fire, but is a powerful weapon.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
A large number of weapons appear on dog tags associated with a similar weapon, weapon of the same family, weapon of the same category, or in a few cases, weapons that make no sense at all. As there are so many, the weapons found '''only''' on dog tags have been placed in their own category at the bottom of each class of weapon. This is to avoid confusion as to which weapons are actually in the game and which ones are only pictures.

=Submachine Guns=
Unlike previous games in the series, SMGs are all-class weapons, and not strictly limited to an Engineer/Spec Ops-type class.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] boasts a large ammo capacity at 50+1, a high rate of fire, and excellent accuracy at the expense of suffering from low damage at long distance. The weapon is capable of being used by all four classes in multiplayer.
[[Image:FN_P90_Triple_Rail_(TR).jpg|thumb|none|400px|FN P90TR - 5.7x28mm]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5KA4==
The [[MP5K|MP5KA4]] is added to BF3 via ''Close Quarters'' DLC, called M5K in BF3, comes standard with a 15 round magazine that incorrectly holds 20 rounds. However, the Extended Mags attachment gives it a 30 round magazine with the correct ammo count. Note that in Battlelog, its render is a MP5KN with the fire selector on safe, but in-game it is a MP5KA4 with the fire selector on full-auto. A correct three-round burst mode was added in a patch around the time of release for the ''Armored Kill'' expansion.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
The [[H&K MP7A1]] can be unlocked and used by any kit. It can use either a 20- or 40-round magazine. It must be unlocked in the Co-Op mode, requiring 34,000 Score. It does low damage to enemies, but has a very high rate of fire and manageable recoil to balance it out. An interesting thing to note is that this weapon has separate reload animations for the 20 and 40 round magazines (the 20 round magazine is dropped via the use of gravity, while the 40 round magazine is manually removed). The "reload-from-empty" animation on the MP7 has the player thumb an invisible bolt release, not reaching far enough to tab the lever.

[[File:Bf3 Heckler & Koch MP7A1 aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The default iron sights of the MP7 in multiplayer.]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP|H&K UMP45]] can be used by all four classes, and has an ammo capacity of 25 + 1. The game correctly depicts the UMP's single / 2 round burst / full auto firing modes.
[[Image:UMP 45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch UMP45 - .45 ACP]]

[[Image:BF3-UMP-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn reloads his UMP during "The Great Destroyer," wondering why he didn't have it the first time he went through this section. Note the caution on the side of the weapon to read the owner's manual; while this makes some sense on this level where the UMPs are seen in the hands of terrorists, the warning is still present even in "Operation Guillotine" when the UMPs are used by the US military; military UMPs should not have it.]]

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[Izhmash PP-19 Bizon|PP-19 Bizon-2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The weapon features a slightly inaccurate magazine capacity of 54 rounds (+ 1 in the chamber), whereas the real life 9x19mm Parabellum helical magazine has a max capacity of 53. However, the PP-19 in-game is chambered in the 9x18mm Makarov, although the lower magazine capacity could very well be for balancing purposes, as DICE may have felt 64 rounds in an SMG would be a tad unfair. Also to note, the PP-19 is the only 9x18mm Makarov weapon in the game.

[[File:BF3 PP19 ads.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Iron sights of a camouflaged Bizon.]]

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', feeling much more realistic this time around, with a more believable firing rate and packing a decent punch per shot, as opposed to the previous game, in which its firing rate was more akin to a Minigun and its power-per-shot around the area of lightly tossing a handful of pebbles at your opponent's face. Comes standard with a 20 round mag, and a 40 round extended mag can be unlocked.
[[Image:Pp-2000 1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|PP-2000 - 9x19mm]]

=Shotguns=
For the first time in a main ''Battlefield'' series game (excluding spinoffs like ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]''), shotguns can be iron-sighted, and like the SMGs, can be used in every kit. In addition, DICE made it so that their shotguns have considerable range, unlike most video games where you have to see the whites of the enemies' eyes for shotguns to be effective.

In BF3, shotgun shells change color depending on which faction is using them; US Marines use red shells, and Russian Ground Forces use green shells.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M1014]] semi-automatic shotgun is found in ''Battlefield 3''. Magazine capacities available are either the civilian legal 4+1, or the full-length 6+1 (Indicating the use of 3-inch magnum rounds. The full-length tube normally holds seven 2.75-inch rounds). When reloading from empty, the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly, just like the 870 MCS.

[[Image:M4Super90.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Benelli M4 Super 90 with 7-shot tube - 12 gauge]]

[[Image:Rrt877 m1014 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|M1014 in MP, reloading.]]

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[SPAS-12]] is one of the 10 guns appearing in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. The weapon is restricted to pump action, and performs similarly to the 870MCS and has the same standard (4+1) and extended (6+1) capacities, but has a slower per-shell reload speed and each shell contains one less pellet than those of the 870. However, it's offset by a maximum rate of fire that is high enough to the point that the next shot can be fired way before the pump animation can finish, specifically at the brief moment where the action is fully to the rear.

The SPAS is also one of the strangest weapons to appear on a different weapon's Dog Tag; it appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the USAS-12. Other than four capital letters followed by "-12", both being 12-gauge, and that they were both in the ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company]]'' series, they have little in common. The ''Close Quarters'' DLC, which adds the SPAS-12, still has the USAS-12 displaying a SPAS-12 Dog Tag.

==M26 MASS==
The [[M26 MASS]] can be used only in the Assault kit in the "Gadget 1" slot. It may be used either as a standalone weapon, or mounted on any of the assault rifles if said rifle is equipped with the underslung rail. It can fire buckshot, flechettes, FRAG-12 rounds, or slugs, same as the other shotguns. The AEK-971 and AN-94 cannot mount the M26 MASS despite having underslung rails as an available attachment, possibly because it would interfere with both weapon's particular reload animation. A model glitch exists on some weapons that mount the M26 MASS where the charging handle will stay up even when the weapon is not in use.

==Pancor Jackhammer==
The [[Pancor Jackhammer]], called the "MK3A1", is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The appearance is highly unrealistic since only two fully automatic prototypes were ever produced; obviously, it does not emulate the real weapon's problems with failing to cycle in full-auto. It feeds from a 8-round magazine or a 12-round extended magazine, both incorrect; the real weapon feeds from a 10-round revolver style cylinder and does not chamber a round to gain a +1 as portrayed in the game.
[[Image:Jackhammer.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Pancor Jackhammer - 12 gauge]]
[[Image:BF3-Jackhammer-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Jackhammer on the customisation screen. Note the erroneous suppressor attachment that has since been patched out of the Jackhammer's available accessories list.]]

The foregrip is pushed forward to unlock and drop the "ammo cassette" (cylinder magazine), a fresh ammo cassette is inserted, and a release button on the trigger guard is pressed to retract the foregrip and lock the ammo cassette in place.]]

==Remington 870 MCS==
The [[Remington 870|Remington 870 MCS]] appears as the "870MCS". The player pumps the shotgun very quickly, which makes it seem almost semi-automatic in-game, like a pump action combat shotgun should be. Magazine capacities are either the standard 4+1, or the extended 6+1. As with the M1014, when reloading from empty the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly.

==Saiga 12K==
The [[Saiga 12K]] returns from ''Battlefield 2'' and is the second semi-auto shotgun unlocked. Magazine capacities are either the standard 6+1, or an extended 10+1 (originally 5+1 standard, and 8+1 extended, following the maximum factory capacity, changed after the 4th update).

==SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper]] and the [[Armsel Protecta]] is included in ''Battlefield 3''. It features semi-automatic fire, has a thin winding key on the front of the drum magazine, and lacks a rear-mounted drum advance lever, which are features of the Street Sweeper, while it also has the Protecta's automatic shell ejection capabilities and therefore its large shell deflector (the Street Sweeper had to manually eject fired shells with an ejector rod, like a [[Colt Single Action Army]]). Conceptually, the hybrid is similar to Sentinel Arms' treatment of the Armsel Striker in their Striker-12, but the weapon lacks the Striker-12's unique thumb tab.

The weapon is referred to as the "DAO-12", as it was in ''[[Battlefield 2]]''; this stands for "double action only, 12 gauge" and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it. The name was kept as an homage to ''Battlefield 2''. The weapon has an incorrect capacity of 8-rounds by default, but the correct 12 if the extended magazine attachment is used. This is most likely for balance, so players can't use a semi-auto, 12 round shotgun AND 3 attachments on top of that.

[[File:Bf3 Cobray Street Sweeper reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and inserts the shells one at a time via the loading gate. The process is incorrect because the drum is never rotated after loading a round; DICE apparently assumed that the drum would automatically rotate during reloading like when firing, when in reality it has to be rotated manually while reloading (the reload is corrected in BF4). Note "12 GAUGE" and a fragmentation symbol visible on the shells.]]
[[File:BF3 DAO-12 winding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of an empty reload, the character winds the drum before loading it.]]

==USAS-12==
The [[USAS-12]] is the only full-auto shotgun in-game, barring the MK3A1 Jackhammer in ''Back to Karkand''. The magazine capacity is incorrectly 6+1 by standard or the correct 10+1 with the extended magazines equipped, most likely for balance, same as the Striker. When optics are attached, the carry handle is replaced by a strip of rails, meaning that the weapon becomes visually identical to the WM-12, an American semi-auto clone of the USAS-12. Like all shotguns, it can utilise standard Buckshot, Slugs, Flechettes and explosive FRAG-12 rounds as well as fit a variety of accessories and attachments.

=Assault Rifles & Battle Rifles=
==5.56A-91==
The [[5.56A-91]] appears as part of the incredibly vague "Compact Assault Rifle" classification, and thus is used by the Engineer kit. It does not have its 40mm grenade launcher. It is the successor to the [[9A-91]] from ''Bad Company 2'', albeit firing the 5.56mm NATO round instead of the 9A-91's 9x39mm one. Called "[[A-91]]" in the game, which refers to the 7.62x39mm variant.

==AEK-971==
The [[AEK-971]] is an unlock for the Assault kit.
[[Image:aek971_545.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AEK-971 (current model) with folding stock - 5.45x39mm]]

Switching to secondary weapon and back again fixes this issue.]]
[[Image:Rrt877 aek2 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AEK-971 in MP, reloading.]]

==AK-74M==
The [[AK-74M]] is the standard assault rifle used by the Russian Assault kit. It is very accurate and has minimal recoil, but suffers from reduced damage compared to the M16A3.
[[Image:AK-74M.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-74M - 5.45x39mm]]
[[Image:BF3-AK-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds an AK-74M equipped with a PSO-1 scope during "Operation Swordbreaker."

[[Image:Bf3 ak-74m world.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Icon and world model of the AK-74M.]]

==AKS-74U==
The [[AKS-74U]] is used by the Engineer kit in multiplayer, and is the starting weapon for Russian Engineers.
[[Image:AKSU-Krinkov.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AKS-74U - 5.45x39mm]]

[[Image:BF3-AKS-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of the mission "Uprising," Blackburn relieves a PLR soldier of this AKS-74U with a Kobra reflex sight, suppressor and tactical light.]]
[[Image:Rrt877 aks74u reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AKS-74U in multiplayer, note the the odd milled/stamped steel hybrid receiver, showing this is the same model from the ''Bad Company'' series.]]

==AN-94==
The [[AN-94]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series. The AN-94's dual-rate full-auto mode is correctly depicted in ''Battlefield 3''. In multiplayer, when set to burst, the weapon fires an 1800RPM 2-round burst, and when set to full auto, it fires the first two shots at 1800RPM, while the rest are fired at 600RPM. In the single-player campaign, the 2 round burst is shown to incorrectly fire at the 600 rpm as opposed to the correct 1800 rpm.

The AN-94 starts in 2-round burst mode by default. Before a patch, the weapon lacked the semi-automatic mode found on the real weapon, instead featuring only the 2-burst and full-auto modes.

An interesting note is that the player character uses the Speed Reload technique when reloading the AN-94, where he pushes the mag release and flicks the magazine out with another magazine, the same applies to the AEK-971.

[[File:BF3 AN-94 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and chambering the first round.]]

==AS Val==
The [[AS Val]] appears as an all kit weapon, most likely due to its small size and unique integrated suppressor, making it too specialized for any specific kit. The March 2012 update added the option of using extended 30-round box magazines (the largest box mag available for the VSS/AS Val/SR-3 rifles) instead of the standard 20-rounders. However, the gun is still modelled with a 20-round magazine even with the extended magazine equipped.

==Colt M4LE Carbine==
Two versions of the [[M4 Carbine]] are found: the full-auto "M4A1" and the 3-round burst "M4". However, they are modeled after the civilian M4LE, as evidenced by the Safe/Fire selector switch. The model features a KAC RIS handguard, Crane SOPMOD stock, Hogue pistol grip, M16A1 flash hider, and Magpul Ranger Plates. In singleplayer, the "M4A1" is commonly seen in the hands of the main character. In multiplayer, being a carbine, the M4s are used by the Engineer kit. The "M4A1" is the starting weapon for US Engineers, while the "M4" is unlocked at 40,000 Engineer score.

Interestingly, the first "Fault Line" trailers showed the player rack the charging handle during an empty reload, which was changed to a press of the bolt release from the Operation Metro trailer onwards and into the release version.

Also note how the semi-auto position reads "Fire", meaning it was modeled on a civilian M4 variant.]]
[[File:Bf3 Colt M4A1 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M4 in multiplayer without any attachment.]]

==Colt Sporter Competition==
Both the 3-round burst "[[M16A4]]" and the full-auto "M16A3" are in fact modeled after the civilian Colt Sporter Competition, since they have a Safe/Fire selector switch, and they lack a bayonet lug. The model features an [[M16A1]] flash hider, a KAC RIS handguard with a rail cover on the right side rail, a Hogue pistol grip, a Magpul loop on the magazine, and a cloth sleeve wrapped around the stock.

The "M16A3" is the standard assault rifle used by the US Assault kit, and can be unlocked for the Russian Assault at 220,000 Assault points; the "M16A4" meanwhile is unlocked for both factions at 89,000 Assault points.

The "M16A4" was one of the first weapons to be shown in early gameplay footage, but was lacking rear iron sights and optical sights; these were added later on. Some later footage showed the M16 with the gas block missing when mounting sights, but this too was corrected in the final release.

==DIO KH2002 Sama==
Befitting the Iranian setting, the [[DIO KH2002|DIO KH2002 Sama]] bullpup assault rifle is one of the weapons in the game. The improved foregrip of the Sama model only appears if the Foregrip attachment is used in multiplayer. The in-game model fires 30 rounds form a 20 round STANAG magazine, however.

In campaign mode, the weapon is often found in the hands of Iranian Army soldiers after the PLR's hostile takeover. It fires in single shot and 3-round burst firing modes, and uses Russian optics. It can be unlocked for multiplayer use with a 17,000 co-op score.

==FAMAS Valorisé==
A [[FAMAS Valorisé]] (FAMAS Upgraded) is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. The weapon is incorrectly fitted with a G1/G2 trigger guard rather than the correct F1 style one and has had the bipod removed. In-game, the FAMAS uses the correct 25 round straight magazines.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series, and has much more realistic statistics, most notably that it doesn't have a fire rate resembling a minigun. Due to its lack of an underslung rail, an M320 or M26 MASS will always be carried as a standalone if the F2000 is equipped. The F2000 can mount a bipod and foregrip like the other assault rifles.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The first generation FN Mk 17 Mod 0, or [[FN SCAR-H CQC]], is used by the Engineer kit In multiplayer. A modeling mistakes shows the fire selector switch set on semi-auto as the weapon itself fires on full-auto by default.

==FN SCAR-L==
The first generation FN Mk 16 MOD 0, or [[SCAR-L]], is an assault rifle added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and is issued to the Assault kit. It's weaker than its bigger brother the SCAR-H because of its smaller round, but it boasts a slightly higher rate of fire (620 rpm) and extremely controllable recoil. It's unlocked by completing the 'Set us up the Bomb' assignment, which involves killing 20 enemies with an underslung grenade launcher and 15 enemies with hand grenades.

==Heckler & Koch G36 ("MG36")==
In the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, a [[Heckler & Koch G36]] with G36C rails, bipods, and Beta C-Mag drums appears as the "MG36"; the actual MG36 did not have such a configuration, and was a rare weapon with a total production run of around 100 units, facts that were even mentioned in the description. Used by the Support kit, the C-Mag is limited to 50+1 and requires the "Extended Magazines" attachment in order to use its full 100+1 capacity.

==Heckler & Koch G36C==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36C]] is seen in single player in the mission "Comrades". The model is based from 2008's DICE game [[Mirror's Edge]]. It can fire semi, auto, or two-round burst. In multiplayer, the G36C being a carbine is used by the engineer kit and uses opaque magazines.

==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
The [[G3A3]] is available in both single and multiplayer. It is an actual H&K G3A3, and not an Iranian clone. It has a wide handguard, and the fire selector markings are S-E-F. The Iranian-manufactured version differs in that it utilizes a slimline handguard and has Farsi writing on the receiver. It can be unlocked for use in multiplayer by gaining 160,000 Co-Op score.

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
The [[HK416]] returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' having a 10.4" barrel and OD furniture. It is the first unlock for the Assault kit and can have an M320 (which replaces the kit's Medkit) mounted as long as a grip or bipod are not. It once again appears as the "M416," seemingly just because that's what it was called in the ''Bad Company'' games since it is no longer shown as a standardised US military weapon in singleplayer. At release, it featured semi-auto, burst, and full-auto modes, something that isn't typically possible with AR-15 type rifles and derivatives. A patch in December of 2011 removed the burst mode for PC, and as of the March 2012 patch, the Xbox 360 and PS3 version's M416 has it removed as well. The BF3 HK416 uses the older M4 Gen II style stock and a Tangodown pistol grip. Newer variants utilize HK's in-house stock and grip designs.

==Heckler & Koch HK53==
The [[HK53]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the G53. It was listed in game under its original "HK53" name on the PS3 version until a patch altered it to G53 as used in the PC and X360 versions. It is a compact version of the HK33 rifle, and as a carbine, it can be used by the Engineer kit.

==L85A2==
The [[L85A2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. It features very high accuracy, low recoil and better hip-fire accuracy due to its bullpup configuration but suffers in close quarters due to its 650 RPM rate of fire. It also cannot mount an underslung M320 like it can in real life.

==Magpul PDR==
The [[Magpul PDR]], a compact bullpup assault rifle development of which was abandoned the year the game came out, appears as an all kit weapon. For unknown reasons, it appears as the "PDW-R" (most likely standing for Personal Defence Weapon-Rifle). Uses either 20 or 30 round polymer magazines, with 20 being the default option.

==SIG SG 553==
The [[SIG SG 553]] appears in ''Battlefield 3'' with a railed handguard. The in-game model's serial numbers points to its modeling reference being a SIG SG 553-1 SP semi-auto only model (the one on the reference image below in particular), though the in-game weapon still has the automatic firing options of the standard SIG SG 553. In multiplayer, being a carbine, it is used by the Engineer kit. It can only be unlocked in Co-Op by achieving a score of 120,000. In the campaign mode, the SG 553 is found in two places. The first is in "Comrades", where a police officer exiting the van has one, and the other one being found by the player after the train crashes in "The Great Destroyer".

==Remington ACR==
The [[Remington ACR]] joins the arsenal of ''Battlefield 3'' as part of the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and was first seen in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay video. It is named "ACW-R" (likely meaning 'Adaptive Combat Weapon - Rifle') much like the "PDW-R". It boasts a high rate of fire with controllable recoil and features a 26 round capacity in a 30 round 5.56mm PMAG magazine. Developers have stated that the "ACW-R" in-game is chambered for 6.5x38mm Grendel, which explains the round capacity. Newer revisions of the Remington ACR have features not reflected in this game model, such as an angled / folding charging handle and an updated lighter-weight rail.

==Steyr AUG A3-CQC==
The [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]] was added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It serves a similar role to the M416, a stable gun with a steady 700 rpm rate of fire and easy to control recoil. The AUG A3-CQC is unique, as it's the only bullpup assault rifle that can mount an underslung weapon. It was first shown in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay trailer and in pre-release screenshots. It is very accurate and has controllable recoil, making it an effective assault rifle. It is unlocked by completing the "Shepard" assignment which involves 10 squad revives and 30 kills with assault rifles.

==MTAR-21==
The [[IMI Micro Tavor MTAR-21]] is a carbine added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It features high recoil due to its short barrel and high rate of fire. In CQB it's capable of mowing down enemies with little trouble due to its 900 rpm rate of fire, but the recoil severely limits its long range capabilities.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===M16A1===
The Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30 shows an [[M203]] mounted to an [[M16A1]], complete with the heatshield handguard.

===M16A2===
The Dog Tag the player receives for 500 kills with the M16A3/A4 shows an [[M16A2]] instead.

===FAMAS===
A [[FAMAS]] (G2?) appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the FAMAS.

===FN F2000===
The standard version of the F2000, with its built in scope, appears on the 500 kill Dog Tag for the F2000 Tactical.

100 Kills with either the SCAR-H carbine or the SCAR-L assault rifle earns the player a SCAR-L dog tag. The release of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC (which introduced the SCAR-L) has not brought along a proper dog tag for the SCAR-H.

=Machine Guns=
==Heckler & Koch M27 IAR==
The [[Heckler & Koch M27 IAR]] is the starting weapon for the US support class, and uses a 45-round extended magazine. It is shown with a 4-vent handguard, but the correct extended barrel for the version is shown, the handguard simply covering less of it.

==LSAT Light Machine Gun==
The [[LSAT|LSAT Light Machine Gun]] is a light machine gun added to ''Battlefield 3'' through the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. In-game it uses the configuration that loads polymer-cased ammunition. It is unlocked by completing the "Point Blank" assignment, which involves 10 kills with C4 and 10 knife takedowns.

==M240B==
The [[M240B]] appears in the hands of some US Marines, and in the hands of the player character, fitted with an EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS). The weapon features a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.

==M249==
An [[M249]] is featured in the game, identified by its STANAG magazine well. It has a fixed buttstock, short paratrooper barrel, and the railed heat shield of the Mk 46 Mod 0. This configuration is typical of Airsoft "Mk 46" guns which have Mk 46 features but retain their STANAG wells.

==M60E4==
The [[M60E4]] is the last MG to be unlocked in the Support kit. Extended magazines gifts the weapon with a massive 200 round box and this is visually shown on the weapon when attached.
[[Image:M60E4-mk43.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M60E4 Mk.43 with Picatinny rails, RIS foregrip, and ammo belt - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==QBB-95==
The [[QBB-95]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Support kit. It uses 75-round drums, and has the highest capacity of any weapon in the game besides belt-fed LMGs.

==QJY-88==
The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', once again called the "Type 88". This isn't wrong per se (the weapon is named "Type 88 GPMG" in Chinese), but quite odd, as the QBZ-95B, QBB-95, and QBU-88 all use their proper "QB" designations.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears in the game. It features high stopping power like other 7.62 weapons, and is more accurate than other LMGs, but has a sharp vertical recoil and less than optimal mobility due to its weight.
[[Image:Pecheneg.jpg|thumb|450px|none|PKP Pecheneg machine gun with ammo box - 7.62x54mmR]]

==RPK==
The [[RPK light machine gun]] is the starting weapon for the Russian Support class. It is referred to in game as an "[[RPK light machine gun#RPK-74|RPK-74M]]", a modernised 5.45x39mm version with synthetic furnishings and a flash hider, despite that it is shown with a 7.62x39mm magazine and no flash hider. The weapon's damage matches the idea that it is a -74 model, as it is scaled to the 5.56mm machine guns, as opposed to behaving like a 7.62x39. When mounting optics the weapon gains side-mounted bracket for attaching them; if it does not mount optics, the bracket is not present. It can sometimes be found fitted with a vertical front grip attached to the underside of the handguard.

==L86A1==
The [[Enfield L86A1]] is a weapon added as a part of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC. In game it's named the "L86A2" and features a 45+1 magazine, despite being modelled with a 30 round one. Like in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]] its rear foregrip is unused. In game it handles much like the L85A2. Its low rate of fire is balanced by its low recoil. It comes with a bipod by default.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===MG36===
Despite the fact that BF3's "MG36" is a hybrid of G36 variants, a configuration correct for an actual MG36 appears on the Dog Tag the player is awarded with for getting 500 kills with it.

=Sniper Rifles=
Unusually, Recon players can opt for low-magnification optics, unmagnified reflex/red-dot sights, or even iron-sights in lieu of the standard high-magnification optics.

==Barrett M98B==
The [[Barrett M98B|M98B]] is the last bolt action unlocked. It is incredibly accurate and powerful, but is heavy and suffers from substantial sway unless a bipod is used. For balance reasons the magazine capacity is limited to 5 rounds instead of the real world's 10.

==Barrett M107==
The [[Barrett M107]] is available in the game, however, DICE felt that the .50 caliber round it uses would either be overpowered if depicted properly, or feel useless if kept balanced, so they opted to simply not have it in multiplayer. It only appears in the singleplayer level "Kaffarov", where player character Dmitri Mayakovsky acquires it due to a somewhat bizarre series of events that don't seem to play out quite the way they were intended to. Here, it is equipped with a thermal scope.

==Accuracy International AWM-F==
The [[Accuracy International AWM|Accuracy International AWM-F]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the "L96" (the British designation of the Accuracy International Precision Marksman; the actual British designation of the AWM is L115A1/A3), and can be used by the Recon kit. True to its reputation, the gun is extremely accurate at long ranges, with minimal bullet drop allowing for precise headshots. Its ballistics are modeled after the L96A1's 7.62 NATO chambering rather the the AW Magnum's .338 Lapua.

==M14 (in Sage chassis)==
An [[M14]] in a Sage chassis appears as a sniper rifle in the Recon class, though it is incorrectly referred to as the [[M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle|M39 EMR]]. It is unlocked when the player receives 58,000 Co-Op Score.

[[Image:Rrt877 ebr reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer simultaneously reloads the M14 and demonstrates that ''Battlefield 3'' does not necessary require you to have a sniper scope on your sniper rifle.]]

==M40A5==
The [[M40A5 Sniper Rifle]] is the second bolt-action rifle unlocked for the Recon class. It has lower muzzle velocity than the other bolt-action rifles, but benefits from the fastest cycle time between shots and moderately low sway.
[[Image:M40A5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M40A5 sniper rifle with Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M40-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds a suppressed M40A5 fitted with an IR scope during the mission "Night Shift."]]

==HK417==
The Heckler and Koch [[HK417]] is added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. Much like the HK53 and the HK416, it lacks the 'HK' prefix and is instead called the M417 in game. It's limited to semi-automatic fire in game and features a 20 round magazine. In game it performs as a hybrid of the Mk11/M39/SVD and the SKS. It has the damage of the MK11/M39/SVD with the capacity of the SKS and a rate of fire that's inbetween the two. It has manageable recoil, and comes with a 8x scope by default. It comes correctly equipped with early-production 20-round HK417 magazines, but are colored grayish instead of transparent. This can be easily seen by looking at the magazine while crawling.

==Knight's Armament SR-25==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25]] appears in BF3 under the name Mk 11 Mod 0, its designation in SOCOM. It is found occasionally in the single-player campaign. It is the default rifle for the US Recon kit in multiplayer, outfitted by standard with a 8x rifle scope.

==Norinco NDM-86==
The .308 variant of the [[Norinco NDM-86]] returns from ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]'', once again appearing as the ''[[SVD]]'' It is default for the Russian Recon Kit sporting a PKS-07 7x Scope by default, though the correct PSO-1 4x scope is the first attachment unlocked at only 10 kills.

==QBU-88==
The [[QBU-88]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Recon kit.
[[Image:Qbu-88-0.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Norinco QBU-88 - 5.8x42mm]]

==M59/66 SKS==
The Yugoslavian M59/66 variant of the [[SKS]] appears in-game, with synthetic Tapco furniture and uses 20 round magazines. It can be identified as the Yugoslavian variant by the design of the front sight with an integrated grenade sight, and by its muzzle device. It is a good choice for close range compared to other Recon-class rifles due to its higher mobility/low weight, 20-round capacity and low recoil, at the cost of less hitting power and range.

==SV-98==
The [[SV-98]] returns as the first unlockable bolt action rifle, with the best mobility and close-up performance among bolt-action rifles.
[[Image:SV98.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SV-98 with suppressor, bipod, carrying handle, and mirage band - 7.62x54mmR]]

=Launchers=
==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin|Javelin]] appears and can be used in either top-down or direct-fire modes, and obviously needs a lock to fire. In the campaign, Blackburn uses one during "Operation Guillotine;" here it has infinite ammunition. During the latter sequence, the Javelin is shown firing at absurdly short range; in real life it has a minimum range of around 250 feet.
[[Image:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FGM-148 Javelin - 127mm]]
[[Image:BF3-Javelin-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Harassed by tanks during "Operation Guillotine," Blackburn comes across his salvation in the form of an FGM-148 Javelin launcher.]]
[[Image:BF3-Javelin-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds the Javelin. Note the help text misidentifies it as a SMAW.]]

==GP-30==
If the M320 is mounted to a Russian weapon (namely the AEK-971, AK-74M, and AN-94) through the Underslung Rail attachment, it instead becomes a [[GP-30]]. It is correctly depicted firing VOG-25 caseless rounds, and the launcher is not flicked downwards to eject the spent casing as is common in first-person shooters.
[[File:GP-30.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-30 - 40mm]]
[[Image:GP-30BF3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The GP-30 mounted on an newer model AEK-971]]

==Heckler & Koch M320==
The [[Heckler & Koch M320]] is the standard grenade launcher of ''Battlefield 3''. The M320 can either be mounted on the rifle via the Underslung Rail attachment, or used in standalone. It can fire standard HE, buckshot, or smoke rounds. ''Close Quarters'' DLC added a "LVG" round for the M320; the name stands for "Low-velocity grenade" (and it does fly slower than the other grenade variants), but functionally the grenade is an HE grenade with a 3-second time fuze instead of an impact fuze, allowing it to bounce off walls.
[[Image:XM320 stock extended.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch M320 with optional telescoping stock - 40x46mm]]

==Pansarskott m/86==
The Pansarskott m/86, a Swedish version of the [[M136 AT4]] with a folding front grip, appears in the hands of US Marines. The m/86 only appears in the Singleplayer campaign. It is incorrectly referred to as an "RPG".
[[Image:Pskott86.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Pansarskott m/86, Swedish Army version of the M136 AT4 with folding foregrip - 84mm]]
[[Image:BF3-AT4-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn readies a Pansarskott m/86 as the squad try to take out a sniper hidden in a hotel.

[[Image:BF3-AT4-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The results of using it are fairly predictable. "Good effect on target!"]]
[[Image:BF3-AT4-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Throughout the campaign, Matkovic carries a Pansarskott m/86 on his back.]]

==M224 Mortar==
At the start of "Operation Guillotine," Blackburn is tasked with briefly carrying an [[M224 Mortar]] as he advances with his fellow Marines; here it cannot be used by the player, and is used by NPCs to fire illumination rounds during the night-time mission. In multiplayer it can be used by the Support class; the M224 in multiplayer has infinite ammunition and can fire smoke or HE rounds. In singleplayer, it is shown with no baseplate fitted, which would make it practically impossible to actually use.
[[Image:M224-60mm-mortar.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M224 Mortar - 60mm]]
[[Image:BF3-M224-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn looks at the set-up M224, wondering when he can have a go.]]

==Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW==
The [[Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW]] appears as the American Engineer's unguided rocket launcher.
[[Image:Mk153SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW - 83mm]]
[[Image:BF3 SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player wields the MK 153 SMAW as he prepares to dish out some disproportionate retribution on some tumbleweeds for giving him allergies.]]

==RPG-7V2==
The [[RPG-7]] is featured as the Russian Engineer's unguided rocket launcher. It incorrectly shows it as 83 mm, which a PG-VL HEAT is 93 mm.

The weapon's Battlelog description states that it fires "GP-7VL" rocket propelled grenades, presumably a corruption or a typo of PG-7VL, even though the in-game weapon uses PG-7V grenades.

[[Image:Rrt877 rpg reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==SA-7 Grail==
The [[SA-7 Grail]] appears as the Russian Engineer's anti-air launcher, misnamed as an [[SA-18 Grouse]] (Russian: 9K38 Igla). As in the previous ''Battlefield'' games the name is given as "SA-18 Igla", using the US designation, but the Russian nickname.
[[Image:800px-SA-7.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-7 Grail launcher and missile - 72mm]]

[[Image:BF3 SA18 Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character holds an SA-7 in multiplayer as he wonders whether a checkpoint office counts as a vehicle.]]

==Training Set Guided Missile M134==
The "[[FIM-92 Stinger]]" in the game is actually an M134 training set with the rear-mounted performance indicator removed: it has "Tracking rainer" written on the gripstock unit (apparently referenced from a photograph where one T was not visible), a blue marking on the BCU well, and has a training battery that projects clear of the underside of the gripstock fitted instead of a normal BCU. It appears as the American Engineer's anti-air launcher. A Training Set with an infinite number of reloads is also found in the singleplayer mission "Rock and a Hard Place." As is normal in videogames, the iron sight is depicted as a digital sight complete with lock-on target boxes.

Amusingly, the "TRACKING RAINER" mark was later copied onto fake Stinger missiles fabricated by a group of Ukrainian separatist rebels, the Lugansk People's Republic, in 2015, who claimed these "weapons" were proof that the United States had been supplying military aid to the Ukrainian government.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===GL1===
The F2000's GL1 appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the F2000, mounted to the rifle.

===M203===
The [[M203]] appears on three Dog Tags. The first is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the M320/GP-30 where it appears not mounted to anything, the second is the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30, where it appears mounted to an M16A1, and the third is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the HK416, mounted to the rifle, just like it was in the ''Bad Company'' series.

=Explosives=

==M15 Anti-Tank mine==
The [[M15 anti-tank mine]] can be used by the Engineer kit. In Multiplayer mines that are placed can only be destroyed with explosives, shooting them has no effect, however Explosive FRAG rounds fired from shotguns will detonate the mine. The mine is pressure activated, meaning only something heavy like a vehicle will set it off, infantry running across will not detonate it.

[[Image:Landmine-dod-closeup.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M15 Anti-Tank mine]]
[[Image:BF3 ATMine Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player ponders the idea of putting AT mines inside a tire and rolling them toward a tank.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
[[M18A1 Claymore]] anti-personnel mines can also be used by the Support kit. They are detonated by motion in front of the mine instead of the real Claymore's command detonation.
[[Image:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]
[[File:BF3 M18 Claymore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M18A1 Claymore in the hands of a US support.]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] is the primary grenade seen in ''Battlefield 3'', used by all factions. Instead of a grenade indicator, the body of the grenade flashes to make it more easily visible. Three grenades are carried in singleplayer. In multiplayer, every kit gets one as standard, but can equip two by using the "FRAG" specialization. There are two ways to throw grenades; either using a hotkey or by selecting the grenade as a weapon. The hotkey tosses the grenade instantly then switches back to the previously equipped weapon. Selecting the grenade manually allows multiple grenades to be thrown one after the other, and also allows the pin to be pulled and the grenade prepared for tossing - though as the spoon is held down, this does not actually "cook" the grenade's fuse.
[[Image:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|250px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[Image:BF3-M67-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn readies an M67 grenade.]]

==M84 stun grenade==
Blackburn uses an [[M84 stun grenade]] to disorient a group of PLR fighters at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AT-14 Spriggan==
The [[AT-14 Spriggan]] appears in the game as the Russian counter to the American BGM-71 TOW mentioned below, and is also a secondary weapon on the BMP-2M APC.
[[Image:AT14-Spriggan.JPG|thumb|none|400px|AT-14 Spriggan launcher and missile - 152mm]]

[[Image:Bf3 GM-71 TOW in Game 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another view of the same launcher.]]

==Browning M2HB==
The [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun appears in the game mounted on vehicles, including M1A2 Abrams tanks. In terms of gameplay, the M2HB behaves more like a medium machine gun, requiring three or four shots to kill infantry, and dozens to disable a vehicle. In multiplayer, M1 tanks can be fitted with an M2HB mounted above the main cannon. When mounted like this, the M2's rate of fire slows to about 400rpm but gains a damage bonus that puts its power more in line with its real life counterpart. These changes were likely made to keep heavy machine guns from being overly powerful compared to other weapons.

==DShK heavy machine gun (mounting)==
Mountings for the [[DShK heavy machine gun]] can be seen on Iranian Type-72Z main battle tanks, modernised versions of the Russian T-55. These tanks seem to have been modelled from museum display vehicles, since the gun itself is missing from the mounting.

==GAU-8/A Avenger==
The [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground attack jet. The A-10 is not playable during campaign mode, but can be piloted in certain multiplayer maps, wherein the A-10's GAU-8/A is devastating against soft targets caught in the open.

==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
Two [[GAU-17/A]] miniguns are mounted on the sides of UH-1Y helicopters and the Russian faction's Kamov Ka-60 helicopter.

[[Image:BF3-Frogfoot-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|It soon returns for a series of gun runs as Blackburn has to move from cover to cover to find a Stinger. The Frogfoot here is basically firing a death ray with a deadzone around pieces of cover; moving out of cover is instant death during the time that counts as its attack even if it has already flown overhead and stopped firing.]]

==Kord==
The [[Kord heavy machine gun]] is mounted on the T-90A tank, Russian army buggies and Vodniks, and a number of technicals. It behaves very similarly to the [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun: more in line with a medium machine gun, and can be mounted on a T-90 with a lowered rate of fire but higher shot-for-shot damage.

The tank is used by the Iranian Army, presumably supposed to have been purchased at some point between the game's release in 2011 and the distant future setting of 2014 when the storyline takes place. Real-life Iran apparently did not get the memo and still does not operate the T-90.]]

==M61 Vulcan==
The [[M61 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jets. M61s are also seen in Phalanx installations on American warships, and in multiplayer the US base is protected by a land-based Phalanx C-RAM installation. It should be noted that the game's campaign mode incorrectly shows the Hornet's M61A1 as being operated by the WSO, when in reality the gun is operated by the pilot.

==M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter.

==GAU-12/U==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-12/U|GAU-12/U]] is the main gun on the LAV-AD in multiplayer. It should be noted that the LAV-AD itself is technically anachronistic as it has been removed from service.

The GAU-12/U is also mounted on the AC-130 gunship. Interestingly, two additional 25mm guns are mounted to the top of the AC-130 as AA guns.
[[Image:GAU-12U.jpg|thumb|none|400px|General Dynamics GAU-12/U with unfired rounds - 25mm]]

==GAU-22/A==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-22/A|GAU-22/A]] appears in the game as the secondary weapon of F-35B Lightning II aircraft in the Back to Karkand DLC that is available in the revamped versions of Gulf of Oman and Wake Island. It is erroneously portrayed being mounted in a nacelle over the left side air intake; this is the case for the Air Force's F-35A while the B and C variants mount the GAU-22/A in an underslung external pod.
[[Image:F-35 GAU-22A.jpg|thumb|none|400px|GAU-22/A - 25mm]]

==M240C==
The [[M240C]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the M1A2 Abrams MBT.

==M242 Bushmaster==
The [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]] is the main gun of the LAV-25.

==Mk 19 Grenade Launcher==
The [[Mk 19 grenade launcher]] is seen mounted on M1114 Humvees and AAVP7A1 amphibious transports.

==PKT==
The [[PKT]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the T-90A and T-72 MBTs.

==Shipunov 2A42==
The [[Shipunov 2A42]] appears in the game as the main gun of the BMP-2M and BTR-90 APCs, and the secondary armament of the Mi-28 Havoc helicopter.
[[Image:Shipunov 2A42.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Shipunov 2A42 - 30mm]]

'''''Battlefield 3''''' (also known as '''''BF3''''') is the twelfth installment of the ''[[Battlefield]]'' series. The game was developed by the Swedish company Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts in 2011 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. The game is powered by the proprietary Frostbite 2 engine, a further development of the engine used in the ''Bad Company'' games.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Battlefield 3'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Unlike earlier DICE games like ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]]'' and ''[[Medal of Honor (2010)|Medal of Honor]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s multiplayer, weapons in ''Battlefield 3'' correctly track + 1 in the chamber and have correct chambering reload animations during empty reloads.

=Handguns=

==Beretta M9==
In the beginning of the single-player mission "Semper Fidelis" and "The Great Destroyer", Blackburn acquires a [[Beretta M9]]. It can also be seen holstered on some US Marine throughout the single-player campaign. In multiplayer it is the starting handgun for US forces. In multiplayer, Players can unlock additional M9's outfitted with a Tactical Light and a Sound Suppressor separately as they level (rank) up.
[[Image:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm]]
[[Image:BF3-M9-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds an M9 at the start of the introductory mission "Semper Fidelis." This one of only two times in the entire campaign the player character has a sidearm.]]

[[Image:Bf3 m9 latarka reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer reloads a Beretta M9 fitted with a flashlight.]]
[[Image:Bf3_M9_suppressed.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M9 with a suppressor. Different classes of weapon use different suppressor models, but those models are shared among the weapons of that class. The only exceptions to this are the G3A3 and SCAR-H CQC, which use the same model as the sniper rifles because of their caliber.]]

==="93R"===
The [[Beretta M9|M9]]'s model is also modified to be the [[Beretta 93R|"93R"]] in the game. The weapon is given a 93R's muzzle brake and folding foregrip, as well as being able to fire 3-round bursts, and uses 20 round magazines, can be unlocked as a sidearm in Co-Op requiring a 86,000 Co-Op Score.

[[Image:Bf3 93r reloading 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After replacing the magazine he operates the slide release; note the projecting base of the 20-round magazine and the two-handed grip used with this weapon.]]

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog. Called "G17C", although it is modeled after a standard Glock 17 as there are no compensator cuts on the top of the slide. It comes standard with a laser sight, while a variant that has both a laser sight and a suppressor is available as a later unlock. It is the only handgun that lets you equip two attachments at a time without either being a DICE developer, or having a certain DLC package. Also, all of the US Assault kit soldiers have a G17 in a chest holster in addition to whatever their selected sidearm is, and this G17 does not have a laser.

[[Image:BF3-Glock-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A dead PLR soldier with a Glock 17 at his side.]]

==Glock 18==
The third generation [[Glock 18]] appears as the "G18". It has an extended magazine base that gives it a 19 round capacity. Interestingly enough in the beta, the suppressed Glock 18 is unlocked before the standard unsuppressed variant (though this has been fixed in the regular game and the unsuppressed version is unlocked at Rank 30 with the suppressed variant unlocked at 41). Note that the Battlelog picture (seen below) lacks a fire selector, but is actually different than that G17's picture. This is most likely because it is from an early build of the game, as it appears correctly in-game. It is an incredibly effective sidearm in close quarters, but is useless at medium range and beyond unless burst fired.

[[File:BF3G18reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading; note the fire selector.]]

==MEU(SOC) Pistol==
The USMC variant of the M1911, the [[M45]], can be used if the player is a Battlefield Veteran or a member of the EA Gun Club. It is a standard M1911A1 with a three-hole trigger, a Springfield slide, commander-style hammer, beavertail grip safety, Pachmayr rubber grips, and uses 8 round magazines. It comes with additional variants that incorporate a Tactical Flashlight or Sound Suppressor. A variant with both aforementioned attachments (named ''M1911 S-TAC'') exist, but prior to the release of the ''End Game'' DLC, it was available only to DICE employees. For those with the DLC, a series of assignments need to be completed in order to unlock a final assignment, called "All about precision". After completing it (which require 20 headshots with pistols), the pistol is unlocked.

==MP-412 REX==
The [[MP-412 REX]] revolver returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' as an unlockable sidearm that can only be unlocked by achieving a 5000 Co-Op Score. Unlike in ''Bad Company 2'', the top break cartridge ejector is seen in full effect actually ejecting spent rounds as opposed to "flicking" them out. It is considerably different by having a slightly faster rate of fire and being more effective at close range compared to its larger .44 cousin.

==MP-443 Grach==
The [[MP-443 Grach]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'' and is the Russian faction's sidearm. In Multiplayer the player unlocks the Tactical Light and Sound Suppressor as they level up instead of by gaining kills with the weapon. Its 17-round capacity can be considered anachronistic, as Russian forces have switched to 18-round magazines in 2004.

[[File:Bf3 MP-443 Grach reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mid-magazine reload.]]

==Taurus Model 44==
The [[Taurus Model 44]] appears as an unlockable sidearm, and can be fitted with a scope. Appears as ".44 Magnum", one of the few weapons in game that does not go by its proper name. In the campaign, the antagonist Solomon uses one as his personal sidearm. In multiplayer, a variant with a PK-A scope is fittingly unlocked at Rank 44. It has a slow rate of fire, but is a powerful weapon.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
A large number of weapons appear on dog tags associated with a similar weapon, weapon of the same family, weapon of the same category, or in a few cases, weapons that make no sense at all. As there are so many, the weapons found '''only''' on dog tags have been placed in their own category at the bottom of each class of weapon. This is to avoid confusion as to which weapons are actually in the game and which ones are only pictures.

=Submachine Guns=
Unlike previous games in the series, SMGs are all-class weapons, and not strictly limited to an Engineer/Spec Ops-type class.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] boasts a large ammo capacity at 50+1, a high rate of fire, and excellent accuracy at the expense of suffering from low damage at long distance. The weapon is capable of being used by all four classes in multiplayer.

==Heckler & Koch MP5KA4==
The [[MP5K|MP5KA4]] is added to BF3 via ''Close Quarters'' DLC, called M5K in BF3, comes standard with a 15 round magazine that incorrectly holds 20 rounds. However, the Extended Mags attachment gives it a 30 round magazine with the correct ammo count. Note that in Battlelog, its render is a MP5KN with the fire selector on safe, but in-game it is a MP5KA4 with the fire selector on full-auto. A correct three-round burst mode was added in a patch around the time of release for the ''Armored Kill'' expansion.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
The [[H&K MP7A1]] can be unlocked and used by any kit. It can use either a 20- or 40-round magazine. It must be unlocked in the Co-Op mode, requiring 34,000 Score. It does low damage to enemies, but has a very high rate of fire and manageable recoil to balance it out. An interesting thing to note is that this weapon has separate reload animations for the 20 and 40 round magazines (the 20 round magazine is dropped via the use of gravity, while the 40 round magazine is manually removed). The "reload-from-empty" animation on the MP7 has the player thumb an invisible bolt release, not reaching far enough to tab the lever.

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP|H&K UMP45]] can be used by all four classes, and has an ammo capacity of 25 + 1. The game correctly depicts the UMP's single / 2 round burst / full auto firing modes.

==PP-19 Bizon-2==
The [[Izhmash PP-19 Bizon|PP-19 Bizon-2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The weapon features a slightly inaccurate magazine capacity of 54 rounds (+ 1 in the chamber), whereas the real life 9x19mm Parabellum helical magazine has a max capacity of 53. However, the PP-19 in-game is chambered in the 9x18mm Makarov, although the lower magazine capacity could very well be for balancing purposes, as DICE may have felt 64 rounds in an SMG would be a tad unfair. Also to note, the PP-19 is the only 9x18mm Makarov weapon in the game.

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', feeling much more realistic this time around, with a more believable firing rate and packing a decent punch per shot, as opposed to the previous game, in which its firing rate was more akin to a Minigun and its power-per-shot around the area of lightly tossing a handful of pebbles at your opponent's face. Comes standard with a 20 round mag, and a 40 round extended mag can be unlocked.

=Shotguns=
For the first time in a main ''Battlefield'' series game (excluding spinoffs like ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]''), shotguns can be iron-sighted, and like the SMGs, can be used in every kit. In addition, DICE made it so that their shotguns have considerable range, unlike most video games where you have to see the whites of the enemies' eyes for shotguns to be effective.

In BF3, shotgun shells change color depending on which faction is using them; US Marines use red shells, and Russian Ground Forces use green shells.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M1014]] semi-automatic shotgun is found in ''Battlefield 3''. Magazine capacities available are either the civilian legal 4+1, or the full-length 6+1 (Indicating the use of 3-inch magnum rounds. The full-length tube normally holds seven 2.75-inch rounds). When reloading from empty, the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly, just like the 870 MCS.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[SPAS-12]] is one of the 10 guns appearing in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. The weapon is restricted to pump action, and performs similarly to the 870MCS and has the same standard (4+1) and extended (6+1) capacities, but has a slower per-shell reload speed and each shell contains one less pellet than those of the 870. However, it's offset by a maximum rate of fire that is high enough to the point that the next shot can be fired way before the pump animation can finish, specifically at the brief moment where the action is fully to the rear.

The SPAS is also one of the strangest weapons to appear on a different weapon's Dog Tag; it appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the USAS-12. Other than four capital letters followed by "-12", both being 12-gauge, and that they were both in the ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company]]'' series, they have little in common. The ''Close Quarters'' DLC, which adds the SPAS-12, still has the USAS-12 displaying a SPAS-12 Dog Tag.

==M26 MASS==
The [[M26 MASS]] can be used only in the Assault kit in the "Gadget 1" slot. It may be used either as a standalone weapon, or mounted on any of the assault rifles if said rifle is equipped with the underslung rail. It can fire buckshot, flechettes, FRAG-12 rounds, or slugs, same as the other shotguns. The AEK-971 and AN-94 cannot mount the M26 MASS despite having underslung rails as an available attachment, possibly because it would interfere with both weapon's particular reload animation. A model glitch exists on some weapons that mount the M26 MASS where the charging handle will stay up even when the weapon is not in use.

==Pancor Jackhammer==
The [[Pancor Jackhammer]], called the "MK3A1", is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by any kit. The appearance is highly unrealistic since only two fully automatic prototypes were ever produced; obviously, it does not emulate the real weapon's problems with failing to cycle in full-auto. It feeds from a 8-round magazine or a 12-round extended magazine, both incorrect; the real weapon feeds from a 10-round revolver style cylinder and does not chamber a round to gain a +1 as portrayed in the game.
[[Image:Jackhammer.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Pancor Jackhammer - 12 gauge]]
[[Image:BF3-Jackhammer-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Jackhammer on the customisation screen. Note the erroneous suppressor attachment that has since been patched out of the Jackhammer's available accessories list.]]

The foregrip is pushed forward to unlock and drop the "ammo cassette" (cylinder magazine), a fresh ammo cassette is inserted, and a release button on the trigger guard is pressed to retract the foregrip and lock the ammo cassette in place.]]

==Remington 870 MCS==
The [[Remington 870|Remington 870 MCS]] appears as the "870MCS". The player pumps the shotgun very quickly, which makes it seem almost semi-automatic in-game, like a pump action combat shotgun should be. Magazine capacities are either the standard 4+1, or the extended 6+1. As with the M1014, when reloading from empty the player character loads a round into the chamber first, then fills the tube, and using the extended option will change the model's magazine tube accordingly.

==Saiga 12K==
The [[Saiga 12K]] returns from ''Battlefield 2'' and is the second semi-auto shotgun unlocked. Magazine capacities are either the standard 6+1, or an extended 10+1 (originally 5+1 standard, and 8+1 extended, following the maximum factory capacity, changed after the 4th update).
[[Image:Saiga 12k-1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Saiga 12K - 12 gauge]]

==SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper]] and the [[Armsel Protecta]] is included in ''Battlefield 3''. It features semi-automatic fire, has a thin winding key on the front of the drum magazine, and lacks a rear-mounted drum advance lever, which are features of the Street Sweeper, while it also has the Protecta's automatic shell ejection capabilities and therefore its large shell deflector (the Street Sweeper had to manually eject fired shells with an ejector rod, like a [[Colt Single Action Army]]). Conceptually, the hybrid is similar to Sentinel Arms' treatment of the Armsel Striker in their Striker-12, but the weapon lacks the Striker-12's unique thumb tab.

The weapon is referred to as the "DAO-12", as it was in ''[[Battlefield 2]]''; this stands for "double action only, 12 gauge" and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it. The name was kept as an homage to ''Battlefield 2''. The weapon has an incorrect capacity of 8-rounds by default, but the correct 12 if the extended magazine attachment is used. This is most likely for balance, so players can't use a semi-auto, 12 round shotgun AND 3 attachments on top of that.

[[File:Bf3 Cobray Street Sweeper reloading 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...and inserts the shells one at a time via the loading gate. The process is incorrect because the drum is never rotated after loading a round; DICE apparently assumed that the drum would automatically rotate during reloading like when firing, when in reality it has to be rotated manually while reloading (the reload is corrected in BF4). Note "12 GAUGE" and a fragmentation symbol visible on the shells.]]
[[File:BF3 DAO-12 winding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|At the start of an empty reload, the character winds the drum before loading it.]]

==USAS-12==
The [[USAS-12]] is the only full-auto shotgun in-game, barring the MK3A1 Jackhammer in ''Back to Karkand''. The magazine capacity is incorrectly 6+1 by standard or the correct 10+1 with the extended magazines equipped, most likely for balance, same as the Striker. When optics are attached, the carry handle is replaced by a strip of rails, meaning that the weapon becomes visually identical to the WM-12, an American semi-auto clone of the USAS-12. Like all shotguns, it can utilise standard Buckshot, Slugs, Flechettes and explosive FRAG-12 rounds as well as fit a variety of accessories and attachments.

=Assault Rifles & Battle Rifles=
==5.56A-91==
The [[5.56A-91]] appears as part of the incredibly vague "Compact Assault Rifle" classification, and thus is used by the Engineer kit. It does not have its 40mm grenade launcher. It is the successor to the [[9A-91]] from ''Bad Company 2'', albeit firing the 5.56mm NATO round instead of the 9A-91's 9x39mm one. Called "[[A-91]]" in the game, which refers to the 7.62x39mm variant.

==AEK-971==

[[Image:Rrt877 aek2 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AEK-971 in MP, reloading.]]

==AK-74M==
The [[AK-74M]] is the standard assault rifle used by the Russian Assault kit. It is very accurate and has minimal recoil, but suffers from reduced damage compared to the M16A3.
[[Image:AK-74M.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-74M - 5.45x39mm]]
[[Image:BF3-AK-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds an AK-74M equipped with a PSO-1 scope during "Operation Swordbreaker."

==AKS-74U==
The [[AKS-74U]] is used by the Engineer kit in multiplayer, and is the starting weapon for Russian Engineers.

[[Image:Rrt877 aks74u reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|AKS-74U in multiplayer, note the the odd milled/stamped steel hybrid receiver, showing this is the same model from the ''Bad Company'' series.]]

==AN-94==
The [[AN-94]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series. The AN-94's dual-rate full-auto mode is correctly depicted in ''Battlefield 3''. In multiplayer, when set to burst, the weapon fires an 1800RPM 2-round burst, and when set to full auto, it fires the first two shots at 1800RPM, while the rest are fired at 600RPM. In the single-player campaign, the 2 round burst is shown to incorrectly fire at the 600 rpm as opposed to the correct 1800 rpm.

The AN-94 starts in 2-round burst mode by default. Before a patch, the weapon lacked the semi-automatic mode found on the real weapon, instead featuring only the 2-burst and full-auto modes.

An interesting note is that the player character uses the Speed Reload technique when reloading the AN-94, where he pushes the mag release and flicks the magazine out with another magazine, the same applies to the AEK-971.

==AS Val==
The [[AS Val]] appears as an all kit weapon, most likely due to its small size and unique integrated suppressor, making it too specialized for any specific kit. The March 2012 update added the option of using extended 30-round box magazines (the largest box mag available for the VSS/AS Val/SR-3 rifles) instead of the standard 20-rounders. However, the gun is still modelled with a 20-round magazine even with the extended magazine equipped.

==Colt M4LE Carbine==
Two versions of the [[M4 Carbine]] are found: the full-auto "M4A1" and the 3-round burst "M4". However, they are modeled after the civilian M4LE, as evidenced by the Safe/Fire selector switch. The model features a KAC RIS handguard, Crane SOPMOD stock, Hogue pistol grip, M16A1 flash hider, and Magpul Ranger Plates. In singleplayer, the "M4A1" is commonly seen in the hands of the main character. In multiplayer, being a carbine, the M4s are used by the Engineer kit. The "M4A1" is the starting weapon for US Engineers, while the "M4" is unlocked at 40,000 Engineer score.

Interestingly, the first "Fault Line" trailers showed the player rack the charging handle during an empty reload, which was changed to a press of the bolt release from the Operation Metro trailer onwards and into the release version.

[[File:Bf3 Colt M4A1 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M4 in multiplayer without any attachment.]]

==Colt Sporter Competition==
Both the 3-round burst "[[M16A4]]" and the full-auto "M16A3" are in fact modeled after the civilian Colt Sporter Competition, since they have a Safe/Fire selector switch, and they lack a bayonet lug. The model features an [[M16A1]] flash hider, a KAC RIS handguard with a rail cover on the right side rail, a Hogue pistol grip, a Magpul loop on the magazine, and a cloth sleeve wrapped around the stock.

The "M16A3" is the standard assault rifle used by the US Assault kit, and can be unlocked for the Russian Assault at 220,000 Assault points; the "M16A4" meanwhile is unlocked for both factions at 89,000 Assault points.

The "M16A4" was one of the first weapons to be shown in early gameplay footage, but was lacking rear iron sights and optical sights; these were added later on. Some later footage showed the M16 with the gas block missing when mounting sights, but this too was corrected in the final release.

==DIO KH2002 Sama==
Befitting the Iranian setting, the [[DIO KH2002|DIO KH2002 Sama]] bullpup assault rifle is one of the weapons in the game. The improved foregrip of the Sama model only appears if the Foregrip attachment is used in multiplayer. The in-game model fires 30 rounds form a 20 round STANAG magazine, however.

In campaign mode, the weapon is often found in the hands of Iranian Army soldiers after the PLR's hostile takeover. It fires in single shot and 3-round burst firing modes, and uses Russian optics. It can be unlocked for multiplayer use with a 17,000 co-op score.

==FAMAS Valorisé==
A [[FAMAS Valorisé]] (FAMAS Upgraded) is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. The weapon is incorrectly fitted with a G1/G2 trigger guard rather than the correct F1 style one and has had the bipod removed. In-game, the FAMAS uses the correct 25 round straight magazines.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000]] returns from the ''Bad Company'' series, and has much more realistic statistics, most notably that it doesn't have a fire rate resembling a minigun. Due to its lack of an underslung rail, an M320 or M26 MASS will always be carried as a standalone if the F2000 is equipped. The F2000 can mount a bipod and foregrip like the other assault rifles.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The first generation FN Mk 17 Mod 0, or [[FN SCAR-H CQC]], is used by the Engineer kit In multiplayer. A modeling mistakes shows the fire selector switch set on semi-auto as the weapon itself fires on full-auto by default.

==FN SCAR-L==
The first generation FN Mk 16 MOD 0, or [[SCAR-L]], is an assault rifle added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and is issued to the Assault kit. It's weaker than its bigger brother the SCAR-H because of its smaller round, but it boasts a slightly higher rate of fire (620 rpm) and extremely controllable recoil. It's unlocked by completing the 'Set us up the Bomb' assignment, which involves killing 20 enemies with an underslung grenade launcher and 15 enemies with hand grenades.

==Heckler & Koch G36 ("MG36")==
In the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, a [[Heckler & Koch G36]] with G36C rails, bipods, and Beta C-Mag drums appears as the "MG36"; the actual MG36 did not have such a configuration, and was a rare weapon with a total production run of around 100 units, facts that were even mentioned in the description. Used by the Support kit, the C-Mag is limited to 50+1 and requires the "Extended Magazines" attachment in order to use its full 100+1 capacity.

==Heckler & Koch G36C==
A [[Heckler & Koch G36C]] is seen in single player in the mission "Comrades". The model is based from 2008's DICE game [[Mirror's Edge]]. It can fire semi, auto, or two-round burst. In multiplayer, the G36C being a carbine is used by the engineer kit and uses opaque magazines.

==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
The [[G3A3]] is available in both single and multiplayer. It is an actual H&K G3A3, and not an Iranian clone. It has a wide handguard, and the fire selector markings are S-E-F. The Iranian-manufactured version differs in that it utilizes a slimline handguard and has Farsi writing on the receiver. It can be unlocked for use in multiplayer by gaining 160,000 Co-Op score.

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
The [[HK416]] returns from ''Bad Company'' and ''Bad Company 2'' having a 10.4" barrel and OD furniture. It is the first unlock for the Assault kit and can have an M320 (which replaces the kit's Medkit) mounted as long as a grip or bipod are not. It once again appears as the "M416," seemingly just because that's what it was called in the ''Bad Company'' games since it is no longer shown as a standardised US military weapon in singleplayer. At release, it featured semi-auto, burst, and full-auto modes, something that isn't typically possible with AR-15 type rifles and derivatives. A patch in December of 2011 removed the burst mode for PC, and as of the March 2012 patch, the Xbox 360 and PS3 version's M416 has it removed as well. The BF3 HK416 uses the older M4 Gen II style stock and a Tangodown pistol grip. Newer variants utilize HK's in-house stock and grip designs.

==Heckler & Koch HK53==
The [[HK53]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the G53. It was listed in game under its original "HK53" name on the PS3 version until a patch altered it to G53 as used in the PC and X360 versions. It is a compact version of the HK33 rifle, and as a carbine, it can be used by the Engineer kit.

==L85A2==
The [[L85A2]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Assault kit. It features very high accuracy, low recoil and better hip-fire accuracy due to its bullpup configuration but suffers in close quarters due to its 650 RPM rate of fire. It also cannot mount an underslung M320 like it can in real life.

==Magpul PDR==
The [[Magpul PDR]], a compact bullpup assault rifle development of which was abandoned the year the game came out, appears as an all kit weapon. For unknown reasons, it appears as the "PDW-R" (most likely standing for Personal Defence Weapon-Rifle). Uses either 20 or 30 round polymer magazines, with 20 being the default option.

==SIG SG 553==
The [[SIG SG 553]] appears in ''Battlefield 3'' with a railed handguard. The in-game model's serial numbers points to its modeling reference being a SIG SG 553-1 SP semi-auto only model (the one on the reference image below in particular), though the in-game weapon still has the automatic firing options of the standard SIG SG 553. In multiplayer, being a carbine, it is used by the Engineer kit. It can only be unlocked in Co-Op by achieving a score of 120,000. In the campaign mode, the SG 553 is found in two places. The first is in "Comrades", where a police officer exiting the van has one, and the other one being found by the player after the train crashes in "The Great Destroyer".

==Remington ACR==
The [[Remington ACR]] joins the arsenal of ''Battlefield 3'' as part of the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack and was first seen in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay video. It is named "ACW-R" (likely meaning 'Adaptive Combat Weapon - Rifle') much like the "PDW-R". It boasts a high rate of fire with controllable recoil and features a 26 round capacity in a 30 round 5.56mm PMAG magazine. Developers have stated that the "ACW-R" in-game is chambered for 6.5x38mm Grendel, which explains the round capacity. Newer revisions of the Remington ACR have features not reflected in this game model, such as an angled / folding charging handle and an updated lighter-weight rail.

==Steyr AUG A3-CQC==
The [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]] was added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It serves a similar role to the M416, a stable gun with a steady 700 rpm rate of fire and easy to control recoil. The AUG A3-CQC is unique, as it's the only bullpup assault rifle that can mount an underslung weapon. It was first shown in the "Ziba Tower" gameplay trailer and in pre-release screenshots. It is very accurate and has controllable recoil, making it an effective assault rifle. It is unlocked by completing the "Shepard" assignment which involves 10 squad revives and 30 kills with assault rifles.

==MTAR-21==
The [[IMI Micro Tavor MTAR-21]] is a carbine added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. It features high recoil due to its short barrel and high rate of fire. In CQB it's capable of mowing down enemies with little trouble due to its 900 rpm rate of fire, but the recoil severely limits its long range capabilities.

The [[M240B]] appears in the hands of some US Marines, and in the hands of the player character, fitted with an EOTech Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS). The weapon features a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.

An [[M249]] is featured in the game, identified by its STANAG magazine well. It has a fixed buttstock, short paratrooper barrel, and the railed heat shield of the Mk 46 Mod 0. This configuration is typical of Airsoft "Mk 46" guns which have Mk 46 features but retain their STANAG wells.

==QBB-95==
The [[QBB-95]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Support kit. It uses 75-round drums, and has the highest capacity of any weapon in the game besides belt-fed LMGs.

==QJY-88==
The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from ''Bad Company 2'', once again called the "Type 88". This isn't wrong per se (the weapon is named "Type 88 GPMG" in Chinese), but quite odd, as the QBZ-95B, QBB-95, and QBU-88 all use their proper "QB" designations.

==PKP Pecheneg==
The [[PKP Pecheneg]] appears in the game. It features high stopping power like other 7.62 weapons, and is more accurate than other LMGs, but has a sharp vertical recoil and less than optimal mobility due to its weight.
[[Image:Pecheneg.jpg|thumb|450px|none|PKP Pecheneg machine gun with ammo box - 7.62x54mmR]]

==RPK==
The [[RPK light machine gun]] is the starting weapon for the Russian Support class. It is referred to in game as an "[[RPK light machine gun#RPK-74|RPK-74M]]", a modernised 5.45x39mm version with synthetic furnishings and a flash hider, despite that it is shown with a 7.62x39mm magazine and no flash hider. The weapon's damage matches the idea that it is a -74 model, as it is scaled to the 5.56mm machine guns, as opposed to behaving like a 7.62x39. When mounting optics the weapon gains side-mounted bracket for attaching them; if it does not mount optics, the bracket is not present. It can sometimes be found fitted with a vertical front grip attached to the underside of the handguard.

==L86A1==
The [[Enfield L86A1]] is a weapon added as a part of the ''Close Quarters'' DLC. In game it's named the "L86A2" and features a 45+1 magazine, despite being modelled with a 30 round one. Like in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]] its rear foregrip is unused. In game it handles much like the L85A2. Its low rate of fire is balanced by its low recoil. It comes with a bipod by default.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===MG36===
Despite the fact that BF3's "MG36" is a hybrid of G36 variants, a configuration correct for an actual MG36 appears on the Dog Tag the player is awarded with for getting 500 kills with it.

=Sniper Rifles=
Unusually, Recon players can opt for low-magnification optics, unmagnified reflex/red-dot sights, or even iron-sights in lieu of the standard high-magnification optics.

==Barrett M98B==
The [[Barrett M98B|M98B]] is the last bolt action unlocked. It is incredibly accurate and powerful, but is heavy and suffers from substantial sway unless a bipod is used. For balance reasons the magazine capacity is limited to 5 rounds instead of the real world's 10.
[[Image:0129481.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Barrett M98B with Harris bipod - .338 Lapua Magnum]]

[[Image:BF3-98B-4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn has M98B at the entrance to the basement of the bank.]]

==Barrett M107==
The [[Barrett M107]] is available in the game, however, DICE felt that the .50 caliber round it uses would either be overpowered if depicted properly, or feel useless if kept balanced, so they opted to simply not have it in multiplayer. It only appears in the singleplayer level "Kaffarov", where player character Dmitri Mayakovsky acquires it due to a somewhat bizarre series of events that don't seem to play out quite the way they were intended to. Here, it is equipped with a thermal scope.

==Accuracy International AWM-F==
The [[Accuracy International AWM|Accuracy International AWM-F]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack as the "L96" (the British designation of the Accuracy International Precision Marksman; the actual British designation of the AWM is L115A1/A3), and can be used by the Recon kit. True to its reputation, the gun is extremely accurate at long ranges, with minimal bullet drop allowing for precise headshots. Its ballistics are modeled after the L96A1's 7.62 NATO chambering rather the the AW Magnum's .338 Lapua.

==MKEK JNG-90==
The [[MKEK JNG-90]] was included for the Recon class in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. To acquire it, the player would have to complete an assignment.
[[Image:JNG-90.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MKEK JNG-90 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M14 (in Sage chassis)==
An [[M14]] in a Sage chassis appears as a sniper rifle in the Recon class, though it is incorrectly referred to as the [[M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle|M39 EMR]]. It is unlocked when the player receives 58,000 Co-Op Score.
[[Image:Sagem14 09-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M14 with Sage stock and scope - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

[[Image:Rrt877 ebr reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character in multiplayer simultaneously reloads the M14 and demonstrates that ''Battlefield 3'' does not necessary require you to have a sniper scope on your sniper rifle.]]

==M40A5==
The [[M40A5 Sniper Rifle]] is the second bolt-action rifle unlocked for the Recon class. It has lower muzzle velocity than the other bolt-action rifles, but benefits from the fastest cycle time between shots and moderately low sway.
[[Image:M40A5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M40A5 sniper rifle with Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[Image:BF3-M40-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds a suppressed M40A5 fitted with an IR scope during the mission "Night Shift."]]

==HK417==
The Heckler and Koch [[HK417]] is added in the ''Close Quarters'' expansion pack. Much like the HK53 and the HK416, it lacks the 'HK' prefix and is instead called the M417 in game. It's limited to semi-automatic fire in game and features a 20 round magazine. In game it performs as a hybrid of the Mk11/M39/SVD and the SKS. It has the damage of the MK11/M39/SVD with the capacity of the SKS and a rate of fire that's inbetween the two. It has manageable recoil, and comes with a 8x scope by default. It comes correctly equipped with early-production 20-round HK417 magazines, but are colored grayish instead of transparent. This can be easily seen by looking at the magazine while crawling.

==Knight's Armament SR-25==
The [[Knight's Armament SR-25]] appears in BF3 under the name Mk 11 Mod 0, its designation in SOCOM. It is found occasionally in the single-player campaign. It is the default rifle for the US Recon kit in multiplayer, outfitted by standard with a 8x rifle scope.

==Norinco NDM-86==
The .308 variant of the [[Norinco NDM-86]] returns from ''[[Battlefield Play4Free]]'', once again appearing as the ''[[SVD]]'' It is default for the Russian Recon Kit sporting a PKS-07 7x Scope by default, though the correct PSO-1 4x scope is the first attachment unlocked at only 10 kills.

==QBU-88==
The [[QBU-88]] is included in the ''Back to Karkand'' expansion pack, and can be used by the Recon kit.
[[Image:Qbu-88-0.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Norinco QBU-88 - 5.8x42mm]]

==M59/66 SKS==
The Yugoslavian M59/66 variant of the [[SKS]] appears in-game, with synthetic Tapco furniture and uses 20 round magazines. It can be identified as the Yugoslavian variant by the design of the front sight with an integrated grenade sight, and by its muzzle device. It is a good choice for close range compared to other Recon-class rifles due to its higher mobility/low weight, 20-round capacity and low recoil, at the cost of less hitting power and range.

=Launchers=
==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin|Javelin]] appears and can be used in either top-down or direct-fire modes, and obviously needs a lock to fire. In the campaign, Blackburn uses one during "Operation Guillotine;" here it has infinite ammunition. During the latter sequence, the Javelin is shown firing at absurdly short range; in real life it has a minimum range of around 250 feet.

[[Image:BF3-Javelin-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn holds the Javelin. Note the help text misidentifies it as a SMAW.]]

==GP-30==
If the M320 is mounted to a Russian weapon (namely the AEK-971, AK-74M, and AN-94) through the Underslung Rail attachment, it instead becomes a [[GP-30]]. It is correctly depicted firing VOG-25 caseless rounds, and the launcher is not flicked downwards to eject the spent casing as is common in first-person shooters.
[[File:GP-30.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-30 - 40mm]]
[[Image:GP-30BF3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The GP-30 mounted on an newer model AEK-971]]

==Heckler & Koch M320==
The [[Heckler & Koch M320]] is the standard grenade launcher of ''Battlefield 3''. The M320 can either be mounted on the rifle via the Underslung Rail attachment, or used in standalone. It can fire standard HE, buckshot, or smoke rounds. ''Close Quarters'' DLC added a "LVG" round for the M320; the name stands for "Low-velocity grenade" (and it does fly slower than the other grenade variants), but functionally the grenade is an HE grenade with a 3-second time fuze instead of an impact fuze, allowing it to bounce off walls.

==Pansarskott m/86==
The Pansarskott m/86, a Swedish version of the [[M136 AT4]] with a folding front grip, appears in the hands of US Marines. The m/86 only appears in the Singleplayer campaign. It is incorrectly referred to as an "RPG".
[[Image:Pskott86.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Pansarskott m/86, Swedish Army version of the M136 AT4 with folding foregrip - 84mm]]

[[Image:BF3-AT4-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Throughout the campaign, Matkovic carries a Pansarskott m/86 on his back.]]

==M224 Mortar==
At the start of "Operation Guillotine," Blackburn is tasked with briefly carrying an [[M224 Mortar]] as he advances with his fellow Marines; here it cannot be used by the player, and is used by NPCs to fire illumination rounds during the night-time mission. In multiplayer it can be used by the Support class; the M224 in multiplayer has infinite ammunition and can fire smoke or HE rounds. In singleplayer, it is shown with no baseplate fitted, which would make it practically impossible to actually use.

==Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW==
The [[Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW]] appears as the American Engineer's unguided rocket launcher.
[[Image:Mk153SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW - 83mm]]
[[Image:BF3 SMAW.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player wields the MK 153 SMAW as he prepares to dish out some disproportionate retribution on some tumbleweeds for giving him allergies.]]

==RPG-7V2==
The [[RPG-7]] is featured as the Russian Engineer's unguided rocket launcher. It incorrectly shows it as 83 mm, which a PG-VL HEAT is 93 mm.

The weapon's Battlelog description states that it fires "GP-7VL" rocket propelled grenades, presumably a corruption or a typo of PG-7VL, even though the in-game weapon uses PG-7V grenades.

[[Image:Rrt877 rpg reloading.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==SA-7 Grail==
The [[SA-7 Grail]] appears as the Russian Engineer's anti-air launcher, misnamed as an [[SA-18 Grouse]] (Russian: 9K38 Igla). As in the previous ''Battlefield'' games the name is given as "SA-18 Igla", using the US designation, but the Russian nickname.

[[Image:BF3 SA18 Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player character holds an SA-7 in multiplayer as he wonders whether a checkpoint office counts as a vehicle.]]

==Training Set Guided Missile M134==
The "[[FIM-92 Stinger]]" in the game is actually an M134 training set with the rear-mounted performance indicator removed: it has "Tracking rainer" written on the gripstock unit (apparently referenced from a photograph where one T was not visible), a blue marking on the BCU well, and has a training battery that projects clear of the underside of the gripstock fitted instead of a normal BCU. It appears as the American Engineer's anti-air launcher. A Training Set with an infinite number of reloads is also found in the singleplayer mission "Rock and a Hard Place." As is normal in videogames, the iron sight is depicted as a digital sight complete with lock-on target boxes.

Amusingly, the "TRACKING RAINER" mark was later copied onto fake Stinger missiles fabricated by a group of Ukrainian separatist rebels, the Lugansk People's Republic, in 2015, who claimed these "weapons" were proof that the United States had been supplying military aid to the Ukrainian government.

==Dog Tag Weapons==
===GL1===
The F2000's GL1 appears on the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the F2000, mounted to the rifle.

===M203===
The [[M203]] appears on three Dog Tags. The first is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the M320/GP-30 where it appears not mounted to anything, the second is the Dog Tag awarded for 500 kills with the M320/GP-30, where it appears mounted to an M16A1, and the third is the Dog Tag awarded for 100 kills with the HK416, mounted to the rifle, just like it was in the ''Bad Company'' series.

=Explosives=

==M15 Anti-Tank mine==
The [[M15 anti-tank mine]] can be used by the Engineer kit. In Multiplayer mines that are placed can only be destroyed with explosives, shooting them has no effect, however Explosive FRAG rounds fired from shotguns will detonate the mine. The mine is pressure activated, meaning only something heavy like a vehicle will set it off, infantry running across will not detonate it.

[[Image:Landmine-dod-closeup.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M15 Anti-Tank mine]]
[[Image:BF3 ATMine Multi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player ponders the idea of putting AT mines inside a tire and rolling them toward a tank.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
[[M18A1 Claymore]] anti-personnel mines can also be used by the Support kit. They are detonated by motion in front of the mine instead of the real Claymore's command detonation.
[[Image:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]
[[File:BF3 M18 Claymore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M18A1 Claymore in the hands of a US support.]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] is the primary grenade seen in ''Battlefield 3'', used by all factions. Instead of a grenade indicator, the body of the grenade flashes to make it more easily visible. Three grenades are carried in singleplayer. In multiplayer, every kit gets one as standard, but can equip two by using the "FRAG" specialization. There are two ways to throw grenades; either using a hotkey or by selecting the grenade as a weapon. The hotkey tosses the grenade instantly then switches back to the previously equipped weapon. Selecting the grenade manually allows multiple grenades to be thrown one after the other, and also allows the pin to be pulled and the grenade prepared for tossing - though as the spoon is held down, this does not actually "cook" the grenade's fuse.
[[Image:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|250px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[Image:BF3-M67-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Blackburn readies an M67 grenade.]]

==M84 stun grenade==
Blackburn uses an [[M84 stun grenade]] to disorient a group of PLR fighters at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AT-14 Spriggan==
The [[AT-14 Spriggan]] appears in the game as the Russian counter to the American BGM-71 TOW mentioned below, and is also a secondary weapon on the BMP-2M APC.
[[Image:AT14-Spriggan.JPG|thumb|none|400px|AT-14 Spriggan launcher and missile - 152mm]]

==BGM-71 TOW==
The [[BGM-71 TOW]] appears in the game as an emplaced anti-tank missile launcher for the US faction.
[[Image:Tow 07.jpg|thumb|none|400px|BGM-71 TOW on M220 tripod - 152mm]]

[[Image:Bf3 GM-71 TOW in Game 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another view of the same launcher.]]

==Browning M2HB==
The [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun appears in the game mounted on vehicles, including M1A2 Abrams tanks. In terms of gameplay, the M2HB behaves more like a medium machine gun, requiring three or four shots to kill infantry, and dozens to disable a vehicle. In multiplayer, M1 tanks can be fitted with an M2HB mounted above the main cannon. When mounted like this, the M2's rate of fire slows to about 400rpm but gains a damage bonus that puts its power more in line with its real life counterpart. These changes were likely made to keep heavy machine guns from being overly powerful compared to other weapons.

[[Image:BF3-M2-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A M2HB mounted on M1161 "Growler" ITV.]]

==DShK heavy machine gun (mounting)==
Mountings for the [[DShK heavy machine gun]] can be seen on Iranian Type-72Z main battle tanks, modernised versions of the Russian T-55. These tanks seem to have been modelled from museum display vehicles, since the gun itself is missing from the mounting.

==GAU-8/A Avenger==
The [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground attack jet. The A-10 is not playable during campaign mode, but can be piloted in certain multiplayer maps, wherein the A-10's GAU-8/A is devastating against soft targets caught in the open.
[[Image:GAU-8A.jpg|thumb|450px|none|GAU-8/A Avenger complete with feed system and 1,174 round drum - 30x173mm]]

[[Image:BF3-GAU-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later in the mission Hawkins gets to call in gun runs from the A-10, here shown on thermal imaging.]]

==GE M134 Minigun==
The [[GE M134 Minigun]] is seen mounted on AH-6 Little Birds in both single and multiplayer.
[[Image:M134.JPG|thumb|none|400px|General Electric M134 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
Two [[GAU-17/A]] miniguns are mounted on the sides of UH-1Y helicopters and the Russian faction's Kamov Ka-60 helicopter.

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-35BM Flanker-E fighter jet.
[[Image:GSH30 1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1 with ammo belt 30mm]]
[[Image:BF3-MiG-3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|During the mission "Going Hunting," Hawkins faces several Su-35BM Flanker-E aircraft, incorrectly referred to throughout as "MiGs." This error is only present in the text in this mission; they are correctly named elsewhere in the game.]]

==Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2==
The [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the Su-25TM (Su-39) Frogfoot ground attack jet.
[[Image:GSh-30-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-2 30mm automatic cannon - 30x165mm]]

The Frogfoot here is basically firing a death ray with a deadzone around pieces of cover; moving out of cover is instant death during the time that counts as its attack even if it has already flown overhead and stopped firing.]]

==Kord==
The [[Kord heavy machine gun]] is mounted on the T-90A tank, Russian army buggies and Vodniks, and a number of technicals. It behaves very similarly to the [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun: more in line with a medium machine gun, and can be mounted on a T-90 with a lowered rate of fire but higher shot-for-shot damage.
[[Image:Kord 02.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Kord heavy machine gun with ammo box - 12.7x108mm]]

[[Image:BF3-Kord-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A T-90 MBT opens fire with its main gun, the massive muzzle flash illuminating the commander's Kord heavy machine gun. The tank is used by the Iranian Army, presumably supposed to have been purchased at some point between the game's release in 2011 and the distant future setting of 2014 when the storyline takes place. Real-life Iran apparently did not get the memo and still does not operate the T-90.]]

==M61 Vulcan==
The [[M61 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the F/A-18E and F/A-18F Super Hornet fighter jets. M61s are also seen in Phalanx installations on American warships, and in multiplayer the US base is protected by a land-based Phalanx C-RAM installation. It should be noted that the game's campaign mode incorrectly shows the Hornet's M61A1 as being operated by the WSO, when in reality the gun is operated by the pilot.

==M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] appears in the game as the secondary armament of the AH-1Z Viper attack helicopter.
[[Image:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

==GAU-12/U==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-12/U|GAU-12/U]] is the main gun on the LAV-AD in multiplayer. It should be noted that the LAV-AD itself is technically anachronistic as it has been removed from service.

The GAU-12/U is also mounted on the AC-130 gunship. Interestingly, two additional 25mm guns are mounted to the top of the AC-130 as AA guns.
[[Image:GAU-12U.jpg|thumb|none|400px|General Dynamics GAU-12/U with unfired rounds - 25mm]]

==GAU-22/A==
The [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U#GAU-22/A|GAU-22/A]] appears in the game as the secondary weapon of F-35B Lightning II aircraft in the Back to Karkand DLC that is available in the revamped versions of Gulf of Oman and Wake Island. It is erroneously portrayed being mounted in a nacelle over the left side air intake; this is the case for the Air Force's F-35A while the B and C variants mount the GAU-22/A in an underslung external pod.
[[Image:F-35 GAU-22A.jpg|thumb|none|400px|GAU-22/A - 25mm]]

==M240C==
The [[M240C]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the M1A2 Abrams MBT.
[[Image:M240C.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M240C machine gun - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M242 Bushmaster==
The [[M242 Bushmaster chaingun]] is the main gun of the LAV-25.

==Mk 19 Grenade Launcher==
The [[Mk 19 grenade launcher]] is seen mounted on M1114 Humvees and AAVP7A1 amphibious transports.
[[Image:US_Mk._19_40mm_grenade_machine-gun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Mk 19 grenade launcher on vehicle mount - 40mm]]

==QLZ-87==
The [[Norinco QL-series grenade launchers|Norinco QLZ-87]] appears in the ''Aftermath'' DLC, mounted on the Russian "Barsuk" (Badger) modification of the GAZ 3937 Vodnik truck.
[[image: QLZ87Light.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Norinco QLZ-87 - 35x32mm]]

==PKT==
The [[PKT]] machine gun is coaxially mounted on the T-90A and T-72 MBTs.
[[Image:Machine gun PKT.jpg|thumb|none|450px|PKT machine gun with 250-round ammo drum - 7.62x54mm R]]

==Shipunov 2A42==
The [[Shipunov 2A42]] appears in the game as the main gun of the BMP-2M and BTR-90 APCs, and the secondary armament of the Mi-28 Havoc helicopter.
[[Image:Shipunov 2A42.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Shipunov 2A42 - 30mm]]

Arma 3

2019-10-28T19:08:11Z

DevaKitty: /* "Type 115" */ It's based off the .50 Beowulf cartridge by Alexander Arms

[[Image:Arma3BoxArt.jpg|300px|thumb|right|'''''Arma 3''''']]

[[Image:Arma3apexbox.jpg|300px|thumb|right|'''''Arma 3 Apex''''']]

'''''ArmA III''''' is a military-simulation video game developed and published by Bohemia Interactive Studio (BIS) exclusively for the PC. It is the third installment of the ''[[ArmA]]'' series, officially announced on May 19, 2011, and is built around the new ''Real Virtuality 4'' engine owned by BIS. The playable alpha version of the game was made purchasable on the Steam store and BIS' page on March 5, 2013. The beta was released on June 25, and the full release was on September 13, 2013. New weapons and vehicles are added with each new part of the free-to-download campaign, split up into multiple chapters.

The storyline is set in 2035, when NATO influence is on the decline, while a new Eastern military alliance led by China and Iran called the Canton Protocol Strategic Alliance Treaty (CSAT) is on the rise. The setting are two islands located in the Aegean Sea, the 270km² Altis (based upon the 477km² Greek island, Lemnos) and the 20km² Stratis (based on the 43km² island of Agios Efstratios). The Republic of Altis and Stratis is in a state of civil strife following a military coup by the Altis Armed Forces (AAF). The US Armed Forces is involved as NATO peacekeepers to oversee the ceasefire between the AAF and the loyalist insurgency group, the Freedom and Independence Army (FIA). However, the ceasefire breaks down, and the AAF allies with CSAT to suppress the FIA by full force, while restricting NATO to Stratis. Things go from bad to worse when the AAF declares war on NATO due to a muddied firing incident on Stratis, triggering an all-out war. The main protagonist of the campaign is Corporal Ben Kerry, an American NATO soldier stationed on Stratis, who needs to work with the enigmatic Captain Scott Miller and the FIA remnants to survive and turn the tide of the war.

''ArmA 3'' received multiple expansions and DLCs post-release, adding new weapons and equipment. The first major expansion, '''''Apex''''', features a new 100km² Pacific setting, Tanoa, a new co-op story campaign, and a variety of new high- and low-tech weapons. After a natural disaster, Tanoa is left vulnerable to crime and disorder from a local paramilitary criminal group, the Syndikat. New armed factions added are the Chinese Pacific CSAT forces, special forces for both NATO and CSAT, the Combat Technology Research Group (CTRG) and Viper respectively, and the minor faction of the Tanoan Gendarmerie. The DLC campaign has players playing as CTRG Group 15 operators dismantling Syndikat influence on the islands and uncovering a CSAT conspiracy behind the scenes. It was released on 11 July 2016, after some time in public beta testing.

A second expansion called '''''Contact''''' was announced 23 May 2019. Like Apex it featured a new Poland-based map, Livonia, a new story campaign, and new units - this time the Livonian Defense Force and the Russian Spetsnaz.

A "Creator DLC" expansion, which are developed by external third party developers but published by Bohemia Interactive, known as '''''Global Mobilization - Cold War Germany''''', was released on April 29th, 2019. The DLC was developed by Vertexmacht, and features a new German-based map, Weferlingen, and new Cold War era factions and equipment, including West Germany, East Germany, and Denmark.

On this page, weapons marked with a (*) are DLC content (outside of the major DLCs, whose content are in separate sections), and their respective DLCs must be purchased in order to use them.

Faction name reference (for the purposes of this page):

'''The following weapons are featured in ''ArmA III'':'''
__TOC__ 

= Arma 3 =
== Handguns ==
=== Walther P99 ===

The [[Walther P99]] serves as the standard sidearm of NATO forces. Its in game designation is '''P07''', and it's rechambered for 9x21mm. It appears in two variations in the game, the base game featuring it with a black slide and tan frame, while ''Apex'' adds a version with a green frame.

[[Image:WaltherP99 twotoneA.jpg‎|thumb|none|300px|Walther P99 with QPQ finished (stainless steel) slide. - 9x19mm]]

[[image:p07hud.jpg|thumb|none|600px|FPS view of the P07. Note the 16 round 9mm magazine. There are two more 9mm magazine types in the game, both being 30-round magazines intended for SMGs, in either straight or curved form. The P07 (and the Rook-40 below) can use the straight 30 round 9mm magazines, intended for the PDW2000 (ST Kinetics CPW).]]

[[image:p07world.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A NATO officer with his P07 by his side.]]

=== MP-443 Grach ===

The [[MP-443 Grach]] appears as the CSAT's standard-issue sidearm under the fictional classification of '''Rook-40'''. Like the P99, it is rechambered to 9x21mm, and their magazines are interchangeable.

[[Image:MP433Grach.jpg|none|thumb|300px|MP-443 "Grach" - 9x19mm]]

[[image:rook40world.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A CSAT officer with his Rook-40 drawn.]]

=== Kimber Warrior ===
The '''ACP-C2''' is the standard sidearm of the GREENFOR forces. It is a 1911 variant, based on a combination of a variety of models, namely the Kimber Custom Covert II, with the [[Kimber Desert Warrior]] and the [[Colt XSE|Colt Rail Gun]]. It is chambered in .45 ACP and has a magazine capacity of nine.

[[image:KimberWarriorII.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Kimber Warrior - .45 ACP]]

[[image:1911hud.jpg|thumb|none|600px|FPS view of the ACP-C2. During the beta, the hammer was incorrectly modeled as double-action. This has been rectified.]]

[[image:1911world.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AAF officer models his ACP-C2. The slide of the pistol is marked "PRO QWERT III", which is presumably a parody of something.]]

=== FN FNP-45 ===

The [[FNP-45_Tactical#FNX-45_Tactical|FN FNP-45]] is BLUFOR's "heavy pistol". Heavy pistols are essentially similar to regular pistols in game, except they can mount certain optics on their top rail and have higher power per-shot in return for lesser ammo capacity. It was released as a free update on October 31st, 2013. In-game, it is known as the '''4-five''', and is chambered for .45 ACP, though it uses 11-round magazines rather than sharing the ACP C2's nine-rounders. Is also used by the LDF in the "Contact" expansion.

The [[Chiappa Rhino 60DS]] is CSAT's "heavy pistol", released alongside the FNP-45 as a free update on October 31st. As a revolver, it has an even smaller capacity than the FNP, and cannot accept a suppressor. In-game, it is named the '''Zubr''', and is chambered in .45 ACP.

=== Taurus Judge (*) ===

Released on the 29th of May, 2014, the [[Taurus Judge]] is refurbished as the '''Starter Pistol''' for the Karts DLC. Instead of blanks, it fires flare shells, in either red or green colours, in burst of 3 per shell. The reload animation changes depending on the amount of rounds present before the reload, though for some reason the number of rounds present before reload is used for both the number of ejected rounds and the number of rounds in the new speedloader.

=== FN P90 ===

The '''ADR-97''' is a family of 5.7mm submachine guns added in the Warlods Update on Dec. 3, 2018, based on the [[FN P90]]. The weapons originally came from an officially supported ''ArmA 3'' mod called the [https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=669962280 ADR-97 Weapon Pack], created by ''ArmA 3'' programmer Jakub Horyna in his spare time. Four variants of the ADR-97 are found: the base ADR-97 based on the PS90, the ADR-97C compact version based on the original P90, and railed versions of the two, ADR-97 TR and ADR-97C TR, based on the PS90 TR and the P90 TR respectively.

The rounds in the translucent magazine are fully animated, and deplete as the gun fires. The gun is used by the LDF in the "Contact" expansion.

== Assault Rifles ==

=== "MX" ===
The '''MX''' family of rifles is the standard-issue weapon for NATO forces. The MX series, designed by real-life CMMG, Inc., has design elements borrowed from the [[Remington ACR]] and [[Robinson Armament XCR]]. It fires caseless 6.5x39mm ammunition, though it is implied that it could could fire traditional cased ammunition due to the presence of an ejection port on the right-hand side of the weapon.

The MX comes in five variants:
*The standard MX rifle, equipped with a Magpul UBR stock.
*The MXC carbine with a shortened barrel and handguard, equipped with a Magpul CTR stock. Both the MX and the MXC are also equipped with the Magpul AFG2 Angled Foregrip with a flat "A1-style" surface.
*The MX 3GL grenadier variant with an underbarrel Metal Storm 3GL instead of a foregrip.
*The MX SW squad support weapon with extended lower handguard and barrel, [[Z-M LR 300]] stock, vertical foregrip, an integrated bipod, and using thicker 100-round magazines.
*The MXM marksman rifle with the Magpul PRS stock, extended barrel, and vertical foregrip. Both the MX SW and MXM also feature simplified Picatinny rails on their handguards.

=== DIO KH2002 Sama ===
A fictional variant of the [[DIO KH2002|DIO KH2002 Sama]], known in game as the '''Katiba''', is the standard-issue service weapon of CSAT soldiers in the Mediterranean (which is composed of Iranian forces). Like the MX series, it fires caseless 6.5mm rounds, though their magazines are rather obviously not interchangeable. The carrying handle has been replaced with a lowered and railed one that highly resembles that of the [[G36C]], with new irons integrated into it, and the original charging handle has been modified and extended to the left to fit this lowered carrying handle. The Katiba is available in a carbine variation with a short barrel and a grenadier version with an underbarrel EGLM.

=== FN F2000 Tactical ===
A fictional variant of the [[FN F2000 Tactical]] designated the '''Mk20''' is the standard issue service weapon of the AAF. It features the Monolith Arms rail system and an unremovable foregrip, preventing it from using bipods. It is also available in a shorter-barreled version as the "Mk20C", and a version of the carbine with the [[FN GL-1]] instead of the foregrip, called the "Mk20 EGLM". Like the real weapon, it fires 5.56x45mm NATO.

=== IMI Tavor TAR-21 ===
The [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] is used by the FIA guerrillas. The in game designation for the full length variant is '''TRG-21''', suffixed "EGLM" when equipped with the GL-1, while its carbine version (corresponding to the CTAR-21 variant in real life) is known as '''TRG-20'''. They're chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO.

=== Kel-Tec RFB Carbine ===
[[Kel-Tec RFB Carbine]]s modified into a fictional amphibious weapon appears as the '''SDAR''' (Special Dual-medium Assault Rifle), and is used by all factions. It is chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, and can use two types of magazines: 30-round STANAG magazines, and 20-round magazines with 5.56mm supercavitating ammunition, allowing it to fire underwater (visually, the weapon is always using straight 20-round magazines). Conceptually, the weapon is identical to the [[ADS Amphibious Rifle]] developed in Russia, with its name being almost a direct translation of ADS. Oddly enough, its selector switch has only two positions marked; safe and fire, albeit the rifle's ability to fire in semi, three-round burst and full automatic modes. To compensate for its selectable settings, the switch will just stop halfway, at the 6 o'clock position, for burst fire.

== Sniper Rifles ==

=== Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR ===
The [[M14#Mk. 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle|Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] is used by INDFOR soldiers in the Marksman role. It's known in-game as the '''Mk 18 ABR''' (Advanced Battle Rifle), and is chambered for 7.62x51mm NATO.

=== CheyTac M200 ===
The [[CheyTac M200]] is the anti-materiel rifle of the BLUFOR faction, and is labelled as the '''M320 LRR''' (Long Range Rifle) ingame. It is chambered in .408 CheyTac.

[[Image:M200.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CheyTac M-200 - .408 CheyTac]]

=== Gepard GM6 Lynx ===

The [[Gepard anti-materiel rifle series|'''GM6 Lynx''']] is the anti-materiel rifle of the CSAT faction. One of the few weapons in the entire game to have its real name, and not only that its field manual entry also mentions its real manufacturer, Gepard. It was first demoed at the Gamescon conference, and was licenced from SERO Engineering Ltd., the designer of the weapon. It's chambered in 12.7x108mm.

=== Izhmash VS-121 ===

The [[VS-121]] was released on October 31st, 2013, and replaces the Mk14 EBR for CSAT's marksmen. In game, it's known as the '''Rahim''', and is chambered for 7.62x54mm. It has an erroneous full-auto mode.

[[image:rahim2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|World view of the Rahim, as the CSAT marksman zeroes in.]]

=== Noreen "Bad News" (*) ===

Added as part of the Marksmen DLC on 8/4/15, the '''MAR-10''' is heavily inspired by the [[Noreen Bad News|Noreen "Bad News"]] rifle according to the devs. It uses custom stock, custom grip and custom handguard seemingly inspired by the War Sport LVOA handguard. It's chambered for .338 Lapua, and is tied to the NATO faction.

The side of the magazine well depicts a modified Bohemia Interactive logo and is marked "Bohemia Industries Firearms Division", a cheeky reference to the game's developers, Bohemia Interactive. The logo also appears on the Type 115 in the Apex DLC.

[[image:mar102.jpg|thumb|none|600px|These cliffs contrast the sniper's full ghillie suit, but it's a pretty sweet view down there.]]

=== SIG 556 DMR (*) ===

Added as part of the Marksmen DLC, the '''Mk-I EMR''' (Enhanced Marksman Rifle) is heavily inspired by the [[SIG SG 550#SIG SG 556 DMR|SIG 556 DMR]]. It was rechambered in game for 7.62mm, with the developers giving the reasoning that 5.56mm would be too weak for ArmA 3's future. It fires in single or full auto, and is also tied to the NATO faction.

The weapon is marked "Mk-I EMR 7.62mm Bohemia Armory", another Easter Egg referring to the game's developers.

[[image:mk1emr2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Instead, he mounts up on a fence, and takes aim down a hill.]]

=== "Cyrus" (*) ===

The first Marksmen rifle for the CSAT faction is pretty odd. It's known as the '''Cyrus'''. It's claimed by the developers to be inspired by the SVD and Saiga rifles, and seems to be primarily based on the [[SVD#SVDK|SVDK]]. It's chambered for 9.3x64mm as a counterpart to NATO's .338 Lapua Magnum, and fires in single or full auto.

The side of the magazine well reads: "Cyrus 9.3x64 / Made in Chenarus", referencing Chenarus, the fictional country from ''ArmA 2''.

[[image:cyrus2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mounting your weapon for increased accuracy is never going to get boring.]]

=== VSS (*) ===

The other CSAT faction Marksmen rifle is a very [[VSS]]-esque design, designated the '''ASP-1 Kir'''. Perhaps owing to the future setting, it's a very customized design. It is integrally suppressed, and chambered for the subsonic 12.7x54mm round, making it the least accurate and shortest-ranged rifle in the game, in return for incredible power within its short effective range. Its caliber suggests it to be an evolution of the [[VSSK Vychlop|VKS]], which the developers mentioned was one inspiration/real life counterpart. Is also used by the Spetnatz in the "Contact" DLC.

[[image:asp12.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The ghillie suits were radically improved with the Marksmen DLC, including designs for arid and semi-arid conditions.]]

=== M14 (*) ===

A more retro design in these future days, the [[M14]] battle rifle turns up almost totally un-modified as the '''Mk14'''. It's tied to the FIA faction, is chambered for 7.62mm, and fires in semi or full-auto.

A civilian variant with shorter 10 rounder mags, a wooden stock and in semi-auto only was added in the ''Contact'' DLC as the "Mk14 Classic" where it's commonly used by Livonian hunters.

== Machine Guns ==
=== KAC Stoner LMG ===
The [[Knight's Armament LMG|KAC Stoner LMG]], appearing as the '''Mk200''', is the machine gun available to INDFOR in-game. It features a Magpul UBR stock and can be fitted with various accessories. It fires 6.5x39mm caseless ammunition. Is also used by LDF in the "Contact" DLC.

=== IMI Negev NG7 ===

The [[IMI Negev]] is the CSAT medium machine gun, chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, and appears as the '''Zafir'''. It is fitted with a variety of modern furniture, including a FAB Defense stock. The Field Manual says that the Zafir is mass-produced in China based on a copied Israeli design.

=== LWMMG (*) ===

The first of two GPMGs added with the Marksmen DLC, the '''SPMG''' (Special Purpose Machine Gun) is a design inspired by the [[General Dynamics Lightweight Medium Machine Gun]]. It's tied to the NATO faction, and fires .338 Norma Magnum rounds in 130-round belt boxes.

=== Heckler & Koch MG5 A2 (*) ===

The other GPMG added by the Marksmen DLC was CSAT's '''Navid''', also inspired by a real-world analogue, the [[Heckler & Koch MG5|Heckler & Koch MG5 A2]]. It fires in full-auto, and interestingly, a three-round burst fire mode that fires much, much faster than the full-auto mode. It's chambered for 9.3x64mm.

[[File:MG5 A2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch MG5 A2 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

== Grenade Launchers ==

=== Metal Storm 3GL ===
The '''[[Metal Storm Weapons#Metal Storm 3GL|3GL]]''' from Australian company Metal Storm is the standard underbarrel launcher of NATO forces, mounted on the MX rifle. It fires both normal 40mm grenades (which is realistically unlikely, given the 3GL's use of electronic firing through induction coils instead of primers and strikers) and stacked 40mm grenades (represented as "three-round magazines" in terms of game coding), in frag, flare and smoke variants. The in-game reload animation depicts the grenades as being muzzle-loaded instead of breech-loaded, for some reason.

[[File:3gl on m16.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Metal Storm 3GL and an M16 - 40mm]]

[[image:mx3glworld.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A NATO leader, and his 3GL. The pistol grip is never used, unfortunately.]]

=== Madritsch ML40 ===

The "'''EGLM'''" of CSAT's [[DIO KH2002]] appears to be based on the [[Madritsch ML40|ML40]] 40mm underbarrel grenade launcher from Madritsch Weapon Technology. It is visually different from the FN GL-1, and opens to the side instead of having a forward-sliding breech.

[[image:katibaglworld.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An CSAT leader, taking aim with his EGLM. Note the small trigger for the grenade launcher inside the trigger guard, absent on the other variants.]]

=== FN GL-1 ===
[[FN GL-1]] launchers, named '''EGLM''', are seen mounted on [[FN F2000 Tactical]] and [[Tavor TAR-21]] rifles in-game. It fires frag, flare, and smoke rounds, of varying types.

[[Image:FNGL1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FN GL-1 - 40mm]]

== Rocket/Missile Launchers ==
=== 9K115-2 Metis-M ===
The [[9K115-2 Metis-M]] (NATO reporting name AT-13 Saxhorn-2) SACLOS wire-guided launcher was added to ''ArmA 3'' for free in the Tanks DLC update released on April 11th, 2018, under the fictional designation of '''9M135 Vorona''' (with the fictional NATO reporting name AT-19 Sweeper). It is exclusive to CSAT, used by both their Mediterranean and Pacific branch, and can fire HEAT tandem or HE missiles. It only exists as a man-portable launcher, which doesn't exist in real life but did previously appear in ''[[ArmA II]]''.

[[Image:9K115-2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|9K115-2 Metis-M launcher and missile - 130mm]]

[[File:Arma3 9M135 Vorona World.jpg|thumb|none|600px|It is quite a hefty launcher.]]

=== Carl Gustaf M4 ===
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] recoilless rifle was added to ''ArmA 3'' for free in the Tanks DLC update released on April 11th, 2018. Despite being primarily trialed by the US Army in real life, it uses the Navy Mk / Mod naming scheme in-game, being designated '''MAAWS Mk4''' with Mod 1 and Mod 0 being the two appearing variants. It is available to NATO (both Mediterranean and Pacific branches) and AAF, and used in limited numbers by CTRG and FIA. Mod 1 features an Aimpoint FCS12 computerized sight with a laser rangefinder, and is used exclusively by NATO and CTRG. The Mod 0 variant lacks this fire control system and uses a traditional optical sight, and is used by AAF and FIA.

Essentially the NATO counterpart to CSAT's RPG-42 unguided launcher, both variants of the MAAWS can fire HEAT tandem or HE munitions. Unlike the real Carl Gustaf M3 adopted under the MAAWS designation by the United States military whose designation stands for "Multi-Role Anti-armor / Anti-personnel Weapon System", the in-game MAAWS rather redundantly stands for "Multi-role Anti-armor Anti-'''tank''' Weapon System", according to the field manual. It's also used by the LDF in the "Contact" DLC.

=== NLAW ===
The [[NLAW]] (British designation for the MBT LAW) is the standard launcher of NATO troops. It is designated the '''PCML''' in game, standing for Person-Carried Missile Launcher. Unlike the real NLAW, the in-game PCML is reloadable. It fires 150 mm missiles with HEAT tandem charge warheads, and uses a visual sensor for lock-on.

The game simulates the soft-launch system of the real MBT LAW; the missile is first launched out of the launcher with a low powered ignition, and the main rocket then ignites after the missile travels for a few meters. The missile has a flight time of 7 seconds, and self destructs if it fails to hit anything when it runs out of fuel.

=== RPG-32 ===
The [[RPG-32|RPG-32 Hashim]] appears as the '''RPG-42 Alamut''' and is the standard CSAT launcher. Completely unguided, the RPG-42 can fire PG-42V HEAT tandem warheads or TBG-42V HE warheads. It's used by the Russian Spetnatz in the "Contact" DLC.

[[Image:RPG-32 Hashim.jpg|thumb|450px|none|RPG-32 Hashim - 105mm]]

[[image:rpg42world.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPG-42's hex camo matches the soldier's helmet very nicely.]]

=== Rafael Mini-Spike ===
The [[Rafael Mini-Spike]] appears as the '''Titan MPRL''' (full name: Titan Multi-Purpose Rocket Launcher), in two variants: a full-size one with a fictional longer hexagonal tube that only takes anti-aircraft munitions, and a "Compact" version with the size and square profile of the actual Mini-Spike, which can take anti-tank or anti-personnel munitions. The AA missiles are thermal guided, the AT missiles are thermal guided and can also use SACLOS guidance from the Titan MPRL Compact, and can also fire in direct fire mode or in a top attack mode, while the AP missiles are purely SACLOS guided. Both Titan variants are universal to all factions, and also comes in tripod mounted variants. The launcher is described as using 127 mm missiles instead of the real Mini-Spike's 75mm missiles.

== Mounted Weapons ==
=== GE GAU-8/A Avenger ===
The [[General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger]] cannon appears as the main armament of the NATO "A-164 Wipeout" (derived from the A-10 Thunderbolt II) CAS jet.

[[File:GAU-8 Avenger contrast.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger - 30x173mm]]

=== Browning M2 Heavy Barrel ===
The [[Browning M2 Heavy Barrel|Browning M2HB]] is seen mounted on the back of the Offroad Technical, used by the FIA faction in-game. It also features as part of the Remote Controlled Weapon System, or the '''RCWS''', alongside the GMG.

[[File:BrowningM2_plain.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]

===M224 Mortar===
The '''Mk6 Mortar''' is an 82mm mortar resembling a futuristic [[M224 Mortar]]. It is available to all major factions except CSAT Pacific. It has access to HE shells, white smoke shells, and white parachute flares. Like other mounted weapons, it can be disassembled for easy transport.

[[image:rcwsgmg.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An RCWS mounted on an AAF Strider MRAP, equipped with a single GMG launcher.]]

=== XM312 ===
The [[XM307 & XM312#XM312|XM312]] appears as the '''Mk30'''. It's used in tripods, raised tripods, autonomous tripods, and on patrol boats. It's used by the NATO, CSAT, and INDFOR factions.

[[File:XM312hmg.jpg|thumb|none|450px|XM312 - .50 BMG]]

=== Dillon Aero M134 Minigun ===
The [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun|DA M134 Minigun]] is seen mounted on the "AH-9" attack helicopter (derived from the AH-6 Little Bird) used by the NATO faction in-game. It's also seen on the Assault Boat, and on the PO-30 Orca CSAT helicopter.

=== General Dynamics XM301 ===
The [[General Dynamics XM301|GD XM301]] is seen mounted on the "AH-99 Blackfoot" attack helicopter (derived from the RAH-66 Comanche) used by the NATO faction in-game.

[[File:XM301b.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics XM301 - 20x102mm]]

=== General Dynamics GAU-19/A ===
The [[General Dynamics GAU-19/A|GD GAU-19/A]] is seen mounted on the "Mi-48 Kajman" attack helicopter (derived from the Mi-28 "Havoc") used by the CSAT faction in-game. It is unclear why the GAU-19/A is featured as the main armament of the Mi-48 instead of the [[Shipunov 2A42]], although this reason could be for ''ArmA III'''s futuristic background. It does act like the 2A42, switching from HE to AP without needing to re-chamber.

=== ZVI Plamen PL-20 2x20mm gun pod ===
The "A-143 Buzzard" multi-role light attack jet used by the AAF is a L-159 Alca, previously seen in the Army of the Czech Republic DLC for ArmA 2. It comes with its underslung [[ZVI Plamen PL-20]] gun pod with dual 20mm cannons.

=== Phalanx CIWS ===
The USS Freedom, a Gerald R. Ford class aircraft carrier, comes with automated defenses and is available for free. The [[Phalanx CIWS]] are labelled as "Praetorian 1C AAA".

[[File:Phalanx CIWS 1B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Phalanx Block 1B CIWS - 20x102mm]]

[[File:A3ciws.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

=== General Electric M61A2 (*) ===
A F/A-18 Super Hornet/F-22 hybrid designated "F/A-181 Black Wasp II" was added to BLUFOR in the Jets DLC. Its primary armament is a 20mm "M61 Minigun", likely referring to the real jets' [[M61 Vulcan]].

[[File:M61-FA-18.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M61 Vulcan in the mounting used by the F/A-18 Hornet - 20x102mm]]

[[File:A3fa28.jpg|thumb|none|600px|F/A-181 Black Wasp II]]

=== "M61 Minigun" (*) ===
A JAS 39 Gripen was added to GREENFOR in the Jets DLC, designated "A-149 Gryphon". While the real JAS 39 Gripen is armed with a [[Mauser BK-27]] 27mm autocannon, the in-game Gryphon is armed with the same M61 Minigun as the Black Wasp II.

[[File:A3jas.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A-149 Gryphon]]

=== Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1 (*) ===
The Jets DLC adds the "To-201 Shikra" stealth multirole fighter jet to the CSAT side that seems to be a Su-57/Mig-29 hybrid with a 30mm "Gsh Cannon", likely based on the [[Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1]].

==Explosives==

===M15 Anti-Tank Mine===
The '''AT Mine''' is the [[M15 anti-tank mine]]. They're triggered when heavier vehicles drive over them; most civilian vehicles and quad bikes can drive over them without triggering them.

[[Image:Landmine-dod-closeup.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M15 anti-tank mine]]

[[File:Arma3 AT Mine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An inert AT mine, not yet buried into the ground.]]

===M18A1 Claymore===
A slightly futuristic [[M18A1 Claymore]] appears as the '''Claymore Charge'''. The ArmA Claymore correctly demonstrates the real Claymore's command detonation, and can also be primed for a 40 second timed fuze. It has an effective kill radius of up to 50 meters, directed towards the front of the Claymore.

[[Image:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]

[[File:Arma3 Claymore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Claymore is deployed and ready to kill.]]

===M18 Smoke Grenade===

The '''Smoke Grenade''' model in ArmA 3 is the [[M18 smoke grenade]]. Colors available include white, red, orange, green, yellow, blue, and purple.

[[Image:M18red.jpg|thumb|none|M18 smoke grenade - Red.]]

[[File:Arma3 Smoke.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Every smoke grenade color in one image.]]

===M67 Hand Grenade===
The [[M67 Hand Grenade]] appears in-game as the '''RGO Grenade''', which is actually the name of [[RGO|a Soviet hand grenade]] that stood for "Hand Grenade Defensive". Like the real RGO, it is heavier and releases more fragments, giving it a larger lethal area.

[[Image:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|250px|M67 fragmentation grenade]]

[[File:Arma3 RGO Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|600px|An RGO Grenade, with its M67 markings giving away its true identity.]]

===SLAM===
A "next generation" [[SLAM|Selectable Lightweight Attack Munition]] known as the '''M6 SLAM''' is found in ArmA 3 (in real life, production terminated in 2002, and the number only went up to M4). They're directional anti-vehicle landmines triggered when a vehicle comes in range.

[[Image:SLAM.jpg|thumb|none|250px|M3 SLAM]]

[[File:Arma3 SLAM.jpg|thumb|none|600px|No puns about slamming here, I'm afraid.]]

===V40 Mini Grenade===
The [[V40 Mini Grenade]] appears in-game as the '''RGN Grenade'''. Like the RGO Grenade, its name is also taken from a [[RGN|Soviet hand grenade]], standing for "Hand Grenade Offensive". And just like the real deal, it is lighter and can be thrown farther, but releases less fragments, making it suitable for more offensive use.

[[file:V40.jpg|thumb|200px|none|V40 Mini-Grenade]]

[[File:Arma3 RGN Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The small RGN Grenade, lying on the ground.]]

===VS-50 Mine===

The '''APERS Mine''' is a pressure-activated anti-personnel landmine. It seems to be based on a VS-50 or [[TS-50 anti-personnel mine]].

[[Image:Tecnovar TS-50.jpg|thumb|none|200px|TS-50 anti-personnel mine]]

== Pistols ==

=== Makarov PMM ===

The [[Makarov PMM]] appears as the standard backup pistol for the Syndikat militia forces. It's known as the '''PM''' in game, and is chambered for 9x21mm. The Field Manual describes the weapon as a Ukrainian made pistol based on the Makarov pistol, rechambered for 9x21mm. It uses its own 10-round magazines incompatible with any other 9mm pistols; the Field Manual notes that the PM's 9x21mm is shorter and wider (due to different caliber measuring procedures in Russia), making it incompatible with the international standard 9x21mm. It has no attachments.

== Submachine Guns ==

=== Heckler & Koch MP5K ===

The Tanoan Gendarmerie Police use an [[MP5K]] with RIS and PDW stock. It's known in game as the '''Protector''', and like most future SMGs, is chambered for 9x21mm in curved 30 round magazines (shared with the CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 coding-wise, thus the magazine icon is that of the Scorpion magazine).

[[Image:MP5K-PDWEarly.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP5K with the PDW-style folding stock attached, commonly used in films to emulate the PDW - 9x19mm.]]

== Assault Rifles ==

=== Heckler & Koch HK416A5 ===

The [[Heckler & Koch HK416|Heckler & Koch HK416A5]] appears as the standard arm of CTRG Special Forces on Tanoa. It appears as the '''SPAR-16''' (full name: Special Purpose Assault Rifle, only mentioned by the announcer in the NATO showcase) under a variety of variants; the standard assault rifle, SPAR-16S light support weapon with extended barrel, Beta C drum magazines (holding 150 rounds instead of the real 100) and vertical foregrip, and SPAR-16 GL equipped with the M320 GLM. It's chambered for 5.56x45mm, and has a bevvy of rails for attachments.

Neato!]]

[[image:arma3_hkm320_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A bit of a shame the character doesn't use that little foregrip. Oh well.]]

=== QBZ-95-1 ===

A modified version of the [[QBZ-95-1]] appears as the standard arm of the Pacific forces of CSAT in a variety of configurations. It's known in its normal form as the '''CAR-95''', and is chambered for 5.8mm. Its alternate variants are the CAR-95-1 light support weapon variant with extended barrel, integrated bipod, and exclusively using 100-round drum mags (an analogue to the [[QBB-95]], though named in the style of QBZ-95-1), and the CAR-95 GL fitted with the QLG-10A grenade launcher.

It has the selector switch of the original QBZ-95 instead of the QBZ-95-1, located on the stock instead of on the grip. Rather than having its prominent carry handle, it has the railed upper receiver modification from T97.ca for the Type 97 NSR, a civilian version of the QBZ-97 5.56mm export model for the Canadian market. Unlike the reference image, the charging handle extends to the right instead of the left.

[[image:arma3_95launcher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Uh oh. No finger on the trigger.]]

=== AK-12 ===

The 2013 prototype of the '''[[AK-12]]''' appears in the ''Apex'' DLC with some odd mish-mash of capabilities from multiple variants. Like the prototype variation it's modeled after, it features full-auto, semi-auto, and burst-fire modes, bursts firing at a noticeably higher rate than the other modes; however, burst-fire is limited to two rounds at a time, which is something from the production version. It's also chambered in 7.62x39mm, presumably to keep the ammo in line with the AKM rifle, though a steel magazine on the AKM turns into a polymer magazine when used on the AK-12. It's used by the Syndikat faction.

In the ''Contact'' DLC, two additional variants of the AK-12 are added to the game, completing the family. The "AKU-12", a carbine variant, and the "RPK-12", an LMG variant. These are all used by the Russian Spetsnaz, and share the same 7.62mm chambering. These 2013 prototype variants do not exist in real life, instead only existing on early photoshopped images. In reality, the 2016 iteration of the AK-12 design had developed carbine and LMG variants, those being AK-15K and RPK-16 respectively (though the RPK-16 is only exists in 5.45mm). However, the 2016 iteration looks markedly different from the 2013 prototype designs the in-game weapons are based on.

=== AKM ===

The welcome return of the '''[[AKM]]''' is made in Apex. It's one of the very few main rifles with no points for attachments. It's chambered for 7.62x39mm, and is a standard arm of the Syndikat criminal faction.

=== AKS-74U ===

The '''[[AKS-74U]]''' appears, the only weapon chambered in 5.45x39mm so far in the game. It's standard for Syndikat launcher users.

[[image:arma3_aks_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Syndikat goon shows off the new ability to fire from some passenger seats of vehicles with his AKS-74U.]]

=== "Type 115" ===

The '''Type 115''' is a very, very strange addition. It seems similar to concepts like the H&K OICW and the Chinese QTS-11, combining two separate firearms into one case. In this case, the upper is a 6.5mm assault rifle, and the lower is a semi-auto only rifle in the .50 BW caseless round which is based off the .50 Beowulf round. It's used exclusively by the CSAT Special Forces "Viper" division.

==Sniper Rifles==

=== Heckler & Koch HK417 A2 ===

The [[Heckler & Koch HK417|Heckler & Koch HK417A2]] appears under the name '''SPAR-17''' as the standard DMR of the CTRG forces on Tanoa. It's chambered for 7.62x51mm, and has a variety of attachment points.

[[File:Hk417A2-16.1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch HK417 A2 - 7.62x51mm]]

[[image:arma3_hk17_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Searching the dense trees for tangos might be a bit easier if this trooper hadn't lost his scope in the bushes. Oh, dear.]]

[[image:arma3_hk17_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A CTRG trooper mounting his SPAR-17 on a railing, as he prepares to open fire.]]

=== QBU-88 ===

The Norinco [[QBU-88]] appears under the name '''CMR-76''' and is used by the CSAT Pacific faction as the standard DMR rifle. It's chambered for 6.5mm in exclusive 20 round magazines, and naturally, has lots of room for attachments.

[[Image:Qbu-88-0.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Norinco QBU-88 - 5.8x42mm]]

[[image:arma3_88_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Our failed parachutist takes aim at something suspect in the distance.]]

== Machine Guns ==

=== M249 Para ===

The [[M249 Paratrooper]] appears as the standard LMG for Syndikat gunners, under the name '''LIM-85''' (Light Infantry Machine gun). It has two different selectable firing speeds, one fast and one slow; the original FN Minimi has such a feature through its manually adjustable two-position gas valve with the settings normal and adverse, adverse increasing the ROF from 700–850 RPM to 950–1,150. The feature was eliminated on the M249, however. It's chambered for 5.56x45mm, has a heat shield, and a railed handguard that oddly enough seems to be patterned after the railed handguard of the [[Mk 46 Mod 1]]. It lacks M249's original bipod, and has an unremovable rail-mounted grippod instead.

[[image:arma3_mk46_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The LIM-85's unique Grippod can be deployed just the same as bipods thanks to mechanics added with the Marksmen DLC.]]

== Grenade Launchers ==

=== GP-25 ===
The '''[[GP-25]]''' is the underbarrel grenade launcher used by the Syndikat, mounted on AK-12s. Coding-wise, it uses the same 40mm grenade as ammunition as most grenade launchers in the game. Logically however, this would not work since the GP-25 uses caseless VOG-25 grenades instead of the cased 40x46mm grenades depicted on the menus and used on the other launchers. Animation-wise, the GP-25 is shown loading and firing caseless VOG grenades correctly.

[[Image:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|GP-25 - 40mm]]

[[image:arma3_ak12launcher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Just another day on Tanoa.]]

=== Heckler & Koch M320 ===

The [[Heckler & Koch M320]] is the underbarrel grenade launcher for the CTRG special forces on Tanoa, mounted on their H&K HK416A5 assault rifles. It is named '''GLM''' on the HUD.

[[File:HK416 with M320.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch HK416 (5.56x45mm) with AG-C/EGLM grenade launcher - 40x46mm]]

[[image:arma3_hkm320_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A CTRG operator ready to lay down some explosions.]]

=== QLG-10A ===

The [[QLG-10A]], designated '''GL 15A''', is the standard underbarrel grenade launcher for CSAT Pacific, mounted on their modified QBZ-95-1s. In-game, it fires the same 40mm grenades as everyone else, giving it the same grenade logic problems as the GP-25.

[[image:arma3_95launcher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A CSAT grenadier in his natural habitat.]]

== Rocket/Missile Launchers ==

=== RPG-7 ===

The '''[[RPG-7]]''' appears as itself, and is the standard launcher for Syndikat forces. The only grenade the weapon can launch is the RPG-7V HEAT grenade. A neat detail is that the rear sight is animated based on the user's zeroing.

[[File:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|450px|none|RPG-7 - 40mm]]

== Mounted Weapons ==

=== GE GAU-12/U ===
The V44-X Blackfish, the VTOL transport aircraft of NATO Pacific (based on a futuristic V-22 Osprey), comes in a gunship configuration that uses a [[General Dynamics GAU-12/U|GAU-12/U]] alongside the Bofors 40mm and M102 Howitzer, just like the real-life AC-130U.

=== Bofors 40mm ===
The V44-X Blackfish comes in a gunship configuration that uses a [[Bofors 40mm]] alongside the GAU-12/U and M102 Howitzer, just like the real-life AC-130U.

[[File:40mm bofors.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Bofors 40mm L/60 AA gun in a Boffin mounting - 40×311mmR]]

= Arma 3 Contact =

Note: The AKU-12 and RPK-12, added in the Contact DLC, are covered in the AK-12 section found under the Arma 3 Apex heading. Likewise, the 10-round Mk14 variant added in Contact DLC is covered in the M14 section under the Arma 3 base game heading.

== Shotguns ==

=== "Kozlice" ===
The '''Kozlice''', Czech for over/under shotgun, returns from ''[[Operation Flashpoint]]'' in both sawn-off and full-length form. It appears to be a fictional version based on the Beretta DT-11 with elements of the CZ Drake, and commonly appears with Livonian hunters and looters.

[[Image:DT-11.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Beretta DT11 - 12 gauge]]

[[image:A3koz.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

=== Crye Precision SIX12 ===
The [[Crye Precision Six12]] in its underslung configuration is available for use by Livonian forces, equipped on their Promet assault rifles. It is known in-game as the '''TSP-12'''.

[[Image:Six12underslung.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Crye Precision SIX12 - 12 gauge]]

[[image:a3msbs.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SIX12 underslung on a Promet assault rifle.]]

== Assault Rifles ==
=== MSBS Grot ===
The bullpup version of the [[MSBS Series|MSBS-5.56 Grot]] appears as the '''Promet''', the standard arm of the Livonian Defense Force. "Promet" is Polish for Promethium, reflecting the Polish tradition of naming rifles after minerals and elements.

Chambered in 6.5mm, the weapon is configured in four versions: a 16-inch barreled assault rifle (which would be designated as Grot B16FB in real life under the Polish naming system), the assault rifle with its proprietary [[GPBO-40 grenade launcher]] ("Promet GL" in-game), the assault rifle equipped with the Six12 underbarrel shotgun ("Promet SG" in-game), or a 20-inch barreled marksman rifle (designated Grot B20PSFB under the Polish naming system, "Promet MR" in-game). The assault rifle can be equipped with a number of attachments, including a unique carry handle with an integrated scope.

== Grenade Launchers ==

=== GPBO-40 ===
Livonian forces can equip the MSBS's proprietary [[GPBO-40]] grenade launcher on their Promet rifles, which is known in-game as the '''UGP-40'''.

'''''NEO Scavenger''''' is a 2014 permadeath indie survival RPG where the player awakes from cryogenic sleep to ruined post-apocalyptic and cryptid-infested Michigan where the city of Detriot is a central point of the map.

'''The following firearms appear in ''NEO Scavenger'':'''

==Long-arms==

===Remington 870===
Known in-game as the '''Cathcart North "Perforator" 12-gauge shotgun,''' the [[Remington 870]] is most commonly found scavenging and sometimes in the hands of looters. It is the most powerful weapon in the game, a trait it shares with the [[Benelli M4]]. It has a capacity of 5 shotgun shell where both buckshot and slugs are available.

[[File:NEOScavengerShotgun.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Remington 870 as seen in game.]]

===Benelli M4 Super 90===
Known in-game as the '''Deltec SBS4 12-gauge shotgun''' the [[Benelli M4]] is primarily carried by SkyCorps private security force, DMC guards of the Detroit Megacity. It is an excessively rare shotgun that shares the same damage output as the [[Remington 870]], as such it also has both buckshot and shotgun slug ammunition available.

==Nagant M1895==
The [[Nagant_Revolver|Nagant M1895]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack. It's accurate, powerful and retains its unique (for a revolver) ability to be suppressed, but is very slow to reload because its loading gate means that rounds must be replaced individually.

==Webley Mk. VI==
The [[Webley_Revolvers#Webley_.455_Mk_VI|Webley Mk. VI]] is the most powerful handgun in the game. It also has the most range compared to any of the other handguns, but rather obviously cannot be fitted with a suppressor.

=Submachine Guns=

==Beretta Model 38A==
The [[Beretta_Model_38#Beretta_Model_38A|Beretta Model 38A]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]'', labeled "MAB38". Being the standard SMG for the Italian forces, it is commonly found in the hands of Italian soldiers.

==FNAB-43==
The Italian [[FNA-B_43|FNAB-43]] submachine gun appears in the game. It has the lowest recoil compared to any of the other SMGs, but also has the lowest magazine capacity of 20 rounds, despite being depicted with a 40-round magazine.

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson_Submachine_Gun#M1A1_Thompson|M1A1 Thompson]] is the first secondary weapon available in the player's arsenal. Being a starter gun, it packs abnormally low firepower compared to other submachine guns despite being chambered for .45 ACP.
[[Image:M1sb.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1A1 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3_Grease_Gun#M3.2FM3A1_.22Grease_Gun.22|M3 "Grease Gun"]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]''. Despite being available in the "Silent Warfare Weapons" DLC pack, it is the only unsuppressed weapon in the pack, even though a real-life variant with integral suppressor existed.

==MP40==
The [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] is the most common submachine gun in the game, being carried by many German soldiers. The stock always appears folded.

==OVP M1918==
The [[Villar-Perosa_M1915_SMG#OVP M1918|OVP M1918]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is available in the "Cold Warfare Winter Expansion" DLC pack. It has a 71-round drum magazine, giving it the highest capacity of all the SMGs.

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten#Sten_Mk_II|Sten Mk II]] is available in the "Urban Assault Expansion" DLC pack. Unlike the aforementioned MP40, the Sten is correctly grasped by the slanted forward part of the receiver.

=Shotguns=

==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]] is available in the "Lock and Load Weapons" DLC pack. It's a ''drilling'' (German for "triplet") combination gun featuring two 12 gauge shotgun barrels and a 9.3x74mmR rifle barrel. Both shotgun barrels in-game use buckshot. The rifle round is more accurate than the shotgun shells (with a tighter crosshair), and has a different firing sound. The currently used ammo is shown on the HUD. The player can choose which ammo to use first by selecting the ammo type from weapon wheel or pressing the secondary weapon button twice. The game automatically switches to the alternate ammunition when the player fires the rifle round or fires both shotgun shells. Reloading reloads all three barrels. The rifle round draws from the same generic sniper rifle ammo pool as the sniper rifles.

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] ("Trench Gun" in-game) can be unlocked for player's loadout by killing an enemy sniper with it in the campaign. Oddly, it also sometimes appears as the Jägers' secondary weapon, although none of them actually switches to it in combat.

=Rifles=

==Carcano M91/41==
The [[Carcano_Rifle_Series#Carcano_M91.2F41|Carcano M91/41]] is one of the rifles in the game, rather commonly found in several locations fitting the Italian setting, and in the hands of Italian soldiers since it is Italy's service rifle during the war. It uses en-bloc clips so it reloads incredibly quickly. It is also very powerful, which is somewhat strange considering the 6.5x52mm Carcano round was more equal to modern intermediate rounds in terms of stopping power than full-power rifle rounds of its era.
[[Image:CarcanoM91Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Carcano M91/41 - 6.5mm]]

[[File:SniperElite4-Carcano-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Carcano.]]

==De Lisle Carbine==
The [[De Lisle Carbine]] is available in the "Silent Warfare Weapons" DLC pack. Its integral suppressor gives it a very quiet and distinct firing sound.
[[Image:45ACP_DeLisle_Carbine_4.jpg|thumb|none|350px|De Lisle Carbine - .45 ACP]]

==FG 42==
The [[FG 42]] is the main weapon used by Support Jäger soldiers. It is unavailable to equip in the loadout but can be picked up by the player in the field.
[[Image:FG421stPattern.jpg|thumb|none|350px|FG 42 - 7.92x57mm Mauser‎]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is the most common rifle in the game, used by Wehrmacht soldiers.
[[Image:Mauser g98 Sniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Karabiner 98k - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I==
The [[Short_Magazine_Lee-Enfield_(SMLE)#Short_Magazine_Lee-Enfield_rifle|Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]''. It still has the highest magazine capacity of the bolt-action sniper rifles.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I - .303 British]]

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1_Carbine#M1.2FM1A1_Carbine|M1 Carbine]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack. The gun incorrectly holds 20 rounds in a standard 15-round straight magazine.
[[Image:T3car.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine]]
[[File:SniperElite4-M1Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player holds the M1 Carbine.]]

==M1903A4 Springfield==
The [[M1903_Springfield#M1903A4_Springfield_Sniper_Rifle|M1903A4 Springfield]] is the first rifle available in the player's arsenal.
[[Image:M1903A4Weaver.jpeg|thumb|none|350px|M1903A4 Springfield - .30-06]]

[[File:SniperElite4-Springfield-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Springfield.]]

==M1C Garand==
The [[M1_Garand|M1C Garand]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack. Since the M1C variant was introduced in June 1944, its appearance in 1943 is anachronistic.
[[Image:M1CSniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1C Garand with M82 scope - .30-06.]]

==MKb 42(H)==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44|MKb 42(H)]] is available in the game, labeled the "MKb 42". It is used by the elite German soldiers known as Jägers.
[[Image:German WW2 MP-44 copy Sport-Systeme Dittrich 'BD42(H)' designed from the MKB42(H).jpg|thumb|none|350px|Sport Systeme Dittrich reproduction of the Haenel MKb 42(H) - 7.92x33mm Kurz]]

==Mosin-Nagant M91/30==
The [[Mosin_Nagant_Rifle|Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] can be found in weapon caches. During Mission 2, the player can find a unique Mosin-Nagant called "Greta". The diary of the resident German sniper describes this as his favorite rifle (apparently a war trophy from the Eastern front). Stat-wise, the Greta has no differences to a regular Mosin-Nagant.

The [[Ross_Rifle|Ross rifle Mark III]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack.

[[File:SniperElite4-Ross-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Ross.]]

==Steyr-Mannlicher M1895==
The [[Steyr-Mannlicher M1895]] appears as the "Mannlicher". Its straight-pull bolt gives it a higher rate of fire than most other bolt-action rifles. Because of its en-bloc clip, it reloads extremely quickly.
[[Image:Mannlicher1895sniper.JPG|thumb|none|350px|Scoped Steyr M1895 Rifle - 8x50mmR Mannlicher]]

==Swedish Mauser 1896==
The [[Mauser_Rifle_Series#1896_Swedish_Mauser|Swedish Mauser 1896]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack. Appears as "Swedish Mauser".
[[Image:Swedish M41 Mauser sniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Swedish M41 Mauser sniper rifle - 6.5x55mm]]

==ZH-29==
The [[ZH-29]] is available in the "Cold Warfare Winter Expansion" DLC pack. It has a 20-round capacity, though its in-game magazine model seems closer to a 10-round magazine.
[[File:ZH-29_10rd.jpg|thumb|none|350px|ZH-29 with 10-round magazine - 7.92×57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==Luftfaust==
The [[Luftfaust]] (aka Fliegerfaust B) can be found in the Deathstorm Part 2: Infiltration DLC called a "Neunfaust R1", referencing its nine barrels. It is considerably anachronistic for the period since it was developed near the end of the war.
[[File:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] is chiefly used as Faust Troopers. It is unavailable to equip in the loadout but can be picked up by the player on the field.
Oddly, in the game it can be reloaded by inserting a new warhead into the tube, in a way similar to [[RPG-2]] and [[RPG-7]], despite being a single shot, disposable launcher.

[[Image:SniperElite4-Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Karl aims a Panzerfaust.]]

=Flare Guns=
==Leuchtpistole==
The [[Leuchtpistole]] can used by the player and German Radio operators to call in artillery strikes. The player can also pick up a Leuchtpistole from a fallen radio operator and call in an artillery strike on their own, the German artillery crews apparently being instructed to deliver a barrage on any red flare they spot.

=Grenades & Explosives=

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
The [[Model_24_Stielhandgranate|Stielhandgranate M24]] returns from previous installments. It comes in two variants: regular and adhesive. The latter is a sticky variant of the grenade, which can stick to most surfaces in the game, including enemies.

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] returns from previous games as the main sidearm for the Germans, and can be unlocked for player's loadout by melee killing 10 officers in the campaign.

==Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer==
The [[Mauser_C96#Mauser_M712_Schnellfeuer|Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer]] is available in the "Lock and Load Weapons" DLC pack and is the only handgun to feature fully automatic fire mode.

==Nagant M1895==
The [[Nagant_Revolver|Nagant M1895]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack. It's accurate, powerful and retains its unique (for a revolver) ability to be suppressed, but is very slow to reload because its loading gate means that rounds must be replaced individually.

==Walther PPK==
The [[Walther_PP_Pistol_Series#Walther_PPK|Walther PPK]] is available in the "Urban Assault Expansion" DLC pack. The in-game 6-round magazine capacity denotes the .380 ACP variant.

==Webley Mk. VI==
The [[Webley_Revolvers#Webley_.455_Mk_VI|Webley Mk. VI]] is the most powerful handgun in the game. It also has the most range compared to any of the other handguns, but rather obviously cannot be fitted with a suppressor.
[[Image:Webley Mk VI.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Webley Mk. VI - .455 Webley]]

==Welrod Mark I==
The [[Welrod_Pistol|Welrod pistol Mark I]] is the first handgun available in the player's arsenal. Like in previous games, the Welrod is incorrectly modeled with the front sight at the muzzle end like on the Mark II, but with the trigger guard of the Mark I.

=Submachine Guns=

==Beretta Model 38A==
The [[Beretta_Model_38#Beretta_Model_38A|Beretta Model 38A]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]'', labeled "MAB38". Being the standard SMG for the Italian forces, it is commonly found in the hands of Italian soldiers.

==FNAB-43==
The Italian [[FNA-B_43|FNAB-43]] submachine gun appears in the game. It has the lowest recoil compared to any of the other SMGs, but also has the lowest magazine capacity of 20 rounds, despite being depicted with a 40-round magazine.

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson_Submachine_Gun#M1A1_Thompson|M1A1 Thompson]] is the first secondary weapon available in the player's arsenal. Being a starter gun, it packs abnormally low firepower compared to other submachine guns despite being chambered for .45 ACP.

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3_Grease_Gun#M3.2FM3A1_.22Grease_Gun.22|M3 "Grease Gun"]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]''. Despite being available in the "Silent Warfare Weapons" DLC pack, it is the only unsuppressed weapon in the pack, even though a real-life variant with integral suppressor existed.
[[Image:M3 Grease.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M3 "Grease Gun" - .45 ACP]]

==MP40==
The [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] is the most common submachine gun in the game, being carried by many German soldiers. The stock always appears folded.
[[File:MP40 Bakelite.jpg|thumb|none|350px|MP40 with brown bakelite lower receiver - 9x19mm]]

[[File:SniperElite4-MP40-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the MP40. Like in many other media, the weapon is incorrectly held by the magazine.]]

==OVP M1918==
The [[Villar-Perosa_M1915_SMG#OVP M1918|OVP M1918]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack.
[[Image:Villar-perosa 1918.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Villar Perosa M1918 - 9x19mm Glisenti]]

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is available in the "Cold Warfare Winter Expansion" DLC pack. It has a 71-round drum magazine, giving it the highest capacity of all the SMGs.
[[Image:PPSH-01-SMG.jpg|thumb|none|350px|PPSh-41 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten#Sten_Mk_II|Sten Mk II]] is available in the "Urban Assault Expansion" DLC pack. Unlike the aforementioned MP40, the Sten is correctly grasped by the slanted forward part of the receiver.
[[Image:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm]]

=Shotguns=

==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]] is available in the "Lock and Load Weapons" DLC pack. It's a ''drilling'' (German for "triplet") combination gun featuring two 12 gauge shotgun barrels and a 9.3x74mmR rifle barrel. Both shotgun barrels in-game use buckshot. The rifle round is more accurate than the shotgun shells (with a tighter crosshair), and has a different firing sound. The currently used ammo is shown on the HUD. The player can choose which ammo to use first by selecting the ammo type from weapon wheel or pressing the secondary weapon button twice. The game automatically switches to the alternate ammunition when the player fires the rifle round or fires both shotgun shells. Reloading reloads all three barrels. The rifle round draws from the same generic sniper rifle ammo pool as the sniper rifles.

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] ("Trench Gun" in-game) can be unlocked for player's loadout by killing an enemy sniper with it in the campaign. Oddly, it also sometimes appears as the Jägers' secondary weapon, although none of them actually switches to it in combat.

=Rifles=

==Carcano M91/41==
The [[Carcano_Rifle_Series#Carcano_M91.2F41|Carcano M91/41]] is one of the rifles in the game, rather commonly found in several locations fitting the Italian setting, and in the hands of Italian soldiers since it is Italy's service rifle during the war. It uses en-bloc clips so it reloads incredibly quickly. It is also very powerful, which is somewhat strange considering the 6.5x52mm Carcano round was more equal to modern intermediate rounds in terms of stopping power than full-power rifle rounds of its era.
[[Image:CarcanoM91Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Carcano M91/41 - 6.5mm]]

==De Lisle Carbine==
The [[De Lisle Carbine]] is available in the "Silent Warfare Weapons" DLC pack. Its integral suppressor gives it a very quiet and distinct firing sound.
[[Image:45ACP_DeLisle_Carbine_4.jpg|thumb|none|350px|De Lisle Carbine - .45 ACP]]

[[File:SniperElite4-DeLisle-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the De Lisle Carbine.]]

==FG 42==
The [[FG 42]] is the main weapon used by Support Jäger soldiers. It is unavailable to equip in the loadout but can be picked up by the player in the field.
[[Image:FG421stPattern.jpg|thumb|none|350px|FG 42 - 7.92x57mm Mauser‎]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is the most common rifle in the game, used by Wehrmacht soldiers.
[[Image:Mauser g98 Sniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Karabiner 98k - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I==
The [[Short_Magazine_Lee-Enfield_(SMLE)#Short_Magazine_Lee-Enfield_rifle|Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I]] returns from ''[[Sniper Elite III]]''. It still has the highest magazine capacity of the bolt-action sniper rifles.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I - .303 British]]

[[File:SniperElite4-LeeEnfield-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Lee-Enfield.]]

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1_Carbine#M1.2FM1A1_Carbine|M1 Carbine]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack. The gun incorrectly holds 20 rounds in a standard 15-round straight magazine.
[[Image:T3car.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine]]
[[File:SniperElite4-M1Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player holds the M1 Carbine.]]

==M1903A4 Springfield==
The [[M1903_Springfield#M1903A4_Springfield_Sniper_Rifle|M1903A4 Springfield]] is the first rifle available in the player's arsenal.
[[Image:M1903A4Weaver.jpeg|thumb|none|350px|M1903A4 Springfield - .30-06]]

==M1C Garand==
The [[M1_Garand|M1C Garand]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack. Since the M1C variant was introduced in June 1944, its appearance in 1943 is anachronistic.
[[Image:M1CSniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1C Garand with M82 scope - .30-06.]]

==MKb 42(H)==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44|MKb 42(H)]] is available in the game, labeled the "MKb 42". It is used by the elite German soldiers known as Jägers.
[[Image:German WW2 MP-44 copy Sport-Systeme Dittrich 'BD42(H)' designed from the MKB42(H).jpg|thumb|none|350px|Sport Systeme Dittrich reproduction of the Haenel MKb 42(H) - 7.92x33mm Kurz]]

==Mosin-Nagant M91/30==
The [[Mosin_Nagant_Rifle|Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] can be found in weapon caches. During Mission 2, the player can find a unique Mosin-Nagant called "Greta". The diary of the resident German sniper describes this as his favorite rifle (apparently a war trophy from the Eastern front). Stat-wise, the Greta has no differences to a regular Mosin-Nagant.

The [[Ross_Rifle|Ross rifle Mark III]] is available in the "Allied Forces Rifle" DLC pack.

[[File:SniperElite4-Ross-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Ross.]]

==Steyr-Mannlicher M1895==
The [[Steyr-Mannlicher M1895]] appears as the "Mannlicher". Its straight-pull bolt gives it a higher rate of fire than most other bolt-action rifles. Because of its en-bloc clip, it reloads extremely quickly.
[[Image:Mannlicher1895sniper.JPG|thumb|none|350px|Scoped Steyr M1895 Rifle - 8x50mmR Mannlicher]]

==Swedish Mauser 1896==
The [[Mauser_Rifle_Series#1896_Swedish_Mauser|Swedish Mauser 1896]] is available in the "Night Fighter Expansion" DLC pack. Appears as "Swedish Mauser".
[[Image:Swedish M41 Mauser sniper.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Swedish M41 Mauser sniper rifle - 6.5x55mm]]

[[File:SniperElite4-W1895-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the M1895.]]

==ZH-29==
The [[ZH-29]] is available in the "Cold Warfare Winter Expansion" DLC pack. It has a 20-round capacity, though its in-game magazine model seems closer to a 10-round magazine.
[[File:ZH-29_10rd.jpg|thumb|none|350px|ZH-29 with 10-round magazine - 7.92×57mm Mauser]]

[[File:SniperElite4-ZH29-Aim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the ZH-29.]]

=Launchers=

==Luftfaust==
The [[Luftfaust]] (aka Fliegerfaust B) can be found in the Deathstorm Part 2: Infiltration DLC called a "Neunfaust R1", referencing its nine barrels. It is considerably anachronistic for the period since it was developed near the end of the war.
[[File:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] is chiefly used as Faust Troopers. It is unavailable to equip in the loadout but can be picked up by the player on the field.
Oddly, in the game it can be reloaded by inserting a new warhead into the tube, in a way similar to [[RPG-2]] and [[RPG-7]], despite being a single shot, disposable launcher.
[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Panzerfaust - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]
[[Image:SniperElite4-Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Karl aims a Panzerfaust.]]

=Flare Guns=
==Leuchtpistole==
The [[Leuchtpistole]] can used by the player and German Radio operators to call in artillery strikes. The player can also pick up a Leuchtpistole from a fallen radio operator and call in an artillery strike on their own, the German artillery crews apparently being instructed to deliver a barrage on any red flare they spot.

=Grenades & Explosives=

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
The [[Model_24_Stielhandgranate|Stielhandgranate M24]] returns from previous installments. It comes in two variants: regular and adhesive. The latter is a sticky variant of the grenade, which can stick to most surfaces in the game, including enemies.

The 8.8 cm Flak 37 must be destroyed in one mission.

The Krupp 28-cm-Kanone 5 (E) railway gun must be destroyed in the third mission.

==Breda Model 35==
The Breda Model 35 Light anti-aircraft gun is mounted on Italian vehicles and MAS boats.
[[File:SniperElite4-Breda.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The mounted Breda on a MAS boat.]]

==Browning .303 Mk II==
British planes like the Avro Lancaster bomber are armed with [[Browning AN/M2|Browning .303 Mk II]] machine guns.

DevaKitty: /* Glock 17 */ Is it not a tad silly to remind users of the necessary approaches to meet legal standards, the in-game gun is as depicted and it seems unnecessary to comment why it's not an original Glock.

'''''Insurgency: Sandstorm''''' is the sequel to the standalone ''[[Insurgency]]'' game developed on the Source engine. The sequel is being developed on the UE4 Engine, delivering high quality graphic, smooth movements, larger maps, usable vehicles, new reload mechanics and much more features to come.

As with its predecessor, the game retains various competitive multiplayer modes along with a Player vs AI co-op mode, playable on each side. Of note is that currently, the Security side has access to almost all the Insurgent-exclusive weapons and attachments in Co-op Mode, while the Insurgent side is only able to use certain Security-exclusive weapons and attachments.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Insurgency: Sandstorm''. '''
__TOC__ 

=Pistols=
==Beretta M9==
A staple sidearm of the series, the [[Beretta M9]] is oddly available to the Insurgent faction rather than the Security (although it is not inaccurate for the Insurgent faction to have plenty of stolen or secondhand older US military hardware). It costs 2 supply points.

==Browning Hi-Power==
Making its way from ''[[Day of Infamy]]'', the [[Browning Hi-Power]] is another Insurgents' sidearm. It costs 1 supply point.

==Colt M1911A1==
The classic .45 [[M1911A1]] returns as the Insurgents' equivalent to the Security's more modern M1911-based pistols. It has long 1911 trigger with diamond grips and blued finish. It costs 2 supply points and is currently the hardest-hitting Insurgents' pistol.

==Colt M45A1==
The [[Colt XSE|Colt M45A1]] replaces the [[M45]] from the 2014 title, though the M45 MEU(SOC) can be seen in early development footage of ''Sandstorm''. As with the M1911A1, it costs 2 supply points and acts as Security's .45 pistol.

[[File:SandstormM45empty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The M45A1 about to be locked and loaded.]]

==Glock 17==
A tan-framed [[Glock 17]] is one of the Security pistols in-game. In the Alpha, the Glock was designated "G17". In the Beta, the weapon was re-indexed as the "M005" likely to avoid legal issues, the name itself likely derived from the USMC M007 designation of the [[Glock 19|Glock 19M]]. It appears that it was still not enough to appease the Glock legal team however, and the Glock was removed from the launch version, reworked, and later patched in as the "PF940"; named after a Glock part kit created by a company named Polymer80, the pistol in-game is built off of said parts kit (specifically the V2 model), its the addition of an aftermarket slide with diagonal cocking serrations. It is currently the most expensive Security's pistol costing 3 supply points.

[[File:SandstormG17empty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The operator turns his Glock over to give its slide a quick pull back.]]

==Makarov PM==
The [[Makarov PM]] is another pistol available to the Insurgents forces. It is the weakest Insurgents' pistol, but also costs 0 supply point.
[[Image:MakarovPM.jpg|350px|thumb|none|Makarov PM - 9x18mm Makarov]]

[[File:SandstormPMempty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|An empty Makarov recieves a fresh magazine.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226R==
Also usable by the Security forces is the [[SIG-Sauer P226R]]. It appears under its UK Army designation of L106A1. It costs 2 supply points.
[[Image:P226R.jpg|350px|thumb|none|SIG-Sauer P226R - 9x19mm]]

[[File:SandstormSIGempty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The operator's thumb clips through the slide as he chambers a fresh round. If the player performs a fast empty reload, the player character will rack the slide with their palm. This also happens on the Glock.]]

==Tariq==
The Tariq, an Iraqi clone of the [[Beretta M1951]], is another usable sidearm in the game, exclusive to the Security forces. It is the only Security's pistol to cost 1 supply point.

=Submachine Guns=
==Heckler & Koch MP5A2==
The First Major Content Update added in two variants of the [[MP5]] submachine gun. The Insurgents received the older [[MP5A2]] variant for the Breacher class, which features the early "slimline" handguard and "waffle" magazine. It costs 3 supply points.
[[Image:HK MP-5 A3.jpg‎|400px|thumb|none|Heckler & Koch MP5A2 with original "slimline" handguard and straight "waffle"-style magazine - 9x19mm]]

[[File:SandstormMP5A2empty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|After locking back the charging handle, the operator prepares to perform a good ol' fashioned HK Slap.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
The First Major Content Update provided Security's Breacher class with the [[MP5A5]], costing 3 supply points.
[[File:H&KMP5A5.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:Sandstorm_MP5A5_Menu.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The weapon loadout menu image of the MP5A5.]]

[[File:SandstormMP5A5empty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The operator in the midst of performing an HK Slap. Some things never go out of style.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5SD6==
When fitted with a suppressor, the Security's [[MP5A5]] turns into an [[MP5SD6]].
[[File:H&KMP5SD6.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5SD6 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

[[File:Sandstorm_MP5SD6_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the MP5SD6.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
A popular community weapon from the previous game, the [[Heckler & Koch MP7]] makes an official appearance in ''Sandstorm''. It is usable by the Security's Breacher class and uses its flush 20-round magazine, with the 40-round extended magazine being available for extra supply points. The base gun costs 4 supply points.
[[File:H&K MP71A1.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Heckler & Koch MP7A1 - 4.6x30mm]]
[[File:Sandstorm_MP7_Menu.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The weapon loadout menu image of the MP7A1.]]
[[File:SandstormMP7.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|A stock MP7 patiently waiting to operate.]]
[[File:SandstormMP7sights.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The operator checks his sight alignment. These are the folded-down "pistol" sights; one of the weapon's customization options is to flip these up into the aperture/post "rifle" setup.]]
[[File:SandstormMP7reload1.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading gives us a good view of the gun. Note excellent trigger discipline and fire selector set to full auto. On any gun with different fire modes, the fire selector will visibly move when fire mode is changed. Also note that the empty reload and partial reload are identical, except for the character pushing the (not visible) bolt release during an empty reload. If the player performs a fast empty reload, the operator will flip the gun over and check the chamber while pressing the bolt release.]]

==IMI Uzi==
The [[IMI Uzi]] also makes its official appearance in the game (although in the last game, there is a Steam Workshop mod that replaced the [[MP40]] with the Uzi). A lower-profile, optics friendly charging handle very similar in appearance to the one used on the Uzi in ''[[Battlefield Hardline]]'' replaces the default Uzi cocking knob. The Uzi is one of the few open-bolt weapons in the game and costs 2 supply points, and is usable only by the Insurgents' Breacher class. By default, the Uzi uses a 25-round magazine, with a longer 32-round magazine and a 50-round drum available via extra supply points.
[[Image:Uzi.jpg|400px|thumb|none|IMI Uzi - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Sandstorm_Uzi_Menu.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The weapon loadout menu image of the Uzi. Note the underloaded capacity of the Uzi in 25 rounds on the in-game stats, despite using 32-round magazine.]]

[[File:SandstormUzireload1.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading gives the operator an opportunity to show off the fully extended stock, the fire selectors, and the markings that reads: "UZI semi-auto MODEL B 9mm PARA-ISRAEL", indicating the Uzi was converted to full-auto.]]
[[File:SandstormUziEmpty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Pulling the custom charging handle during an empty reload.]]

=Assault Rifles=
==AK-74N==
The [[AK-74|AK-74N]] returns from the previous game as the AK-74, although the Warsaw Pact rail makes it an AK-74N. The rifle costs 4 supply points and is usable by the Insurgents' Rifleman, Demolitions, Commander, and Observer classes. The AK-74 can be wielded with the [[GP-25]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.
[[Image:AK-74 NTW 12 92.jpg|thumb|none|500px|AK-74 - 5.45x39mm]]

[[File:SandstormAK74empty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Finishing an empty reload with a pull of the charging handle. All rifles in the AK family share a very similar reload animation.]]

==AKMN==
The [[AKM|AKMN]] with a standard fixed stock replaces the folding stock [[AKMS]] from the previous game. Like the rest of the AK's, it's modeled with a Warsaw Pact rail, albeit a newer version lifted from the AK-74N model. The rifle is one of the cheapest Insurgents' weapons available, costing 3 supply points. It is usable by the Rifleman, Demolitions, Commander, and Observer classes. The AKM can be wielded with the [[GP-25]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.
[[File:AKMRifle.jpg|500px|thumb|none|AKM - 7.62x39mm]]

[[File:SandstormAKMreloadempty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Preparing to pull the charging handle.]]

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] returns as the AKS-74U, and like the other AKs, it has the Warsaw Pact rail making it an AKS-74UN. The rifle is available for the Insurgents' Advisor and Breacher classes, and costs 4 supply points.
[[Image:AKSU-Krinkov.jpg|500px|thumb|none|Izhmash AKS-74U - 5.45x39mm]]

[[File:SandstormAKS74uempty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The operator prepares to give the charging handle a pull.]]

==Alpha AK==
The Alpha AK, a customized [[AK-47|AK]] used by the Russian Spetsnaz Alpha Group and featuring a Zenit RIS handguard, a railed dust cover, and a Tromix extended charging handle, is a new Insurgents' weapon in ''Sandstorm'' available to the Advisor class which costs 4 supply points.
[[File:Alpha AK 5.45mm.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Alpha AK - 5.45x39mm]]
[[File:Sandstorm_Alpha_AK_Menu.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The weapon loadout menu image of the Alpha AK. Note the in-game stats stated the gun chambered in 7.62x39mm, despite clearly using a 5.45x39mm magazine.]]

[[File:SandstormAlphaAKsights.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|The traditional AK sights have been replaced by some more modern flip-up sights. You certainly won't be short of rail space.]]
[[File:SandstormAlphaAKreload1.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Rocking in a new magazine. Fast reloads for all AK family weapons have the player character knocking out the old magazine with the new. Interestingly, the receiver has "PATENTED U.S.A. MADE" and "Model AK-104-A CAL 7.62x39" markings, indicating the gun is licensed American copy of the AK-104.]]
[[File:SandstormAlphaAkempty.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Pulling back the custom charging handle. On fast empty reloads, the player character will rack the charging handle with their left hand from under. This happens on all AK family weapons.]]

==Enfield L85A2==
The [[L85A2]] is available to the Advisor class of the Security faction. By default, it has its original green plastic handguard; the Daniel Defense railed forend is used when mounting a laser or light module or adding a vertical grip. Like the Uzi in the previous game, it was a favorite workshop mod among the community. The SUSAT scope can also be equipped on the L85 as a unique attachment. It costs 4 supply points.

==Heckler & Koch G36K==
Another popular weapon mod from the previous game, the [[Heckler & Koch G36K]] is one of the primary weapons available to the Security forces. The ZF optical sight can be equipped on the G36K as the "ISM scope". It costs 4 supply points and is available to the Security's Rifleman, Demolitions, Commander, and Observer classes. Notably, the G36K is prominently used during the tutorial map. The G36K can be wielded with the [[AG36]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.

[[File:Sandstorm_G36K_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...followed by a fresh mag and a tug of the charging handle. The speed reload is similar.]]

==HS Produkt VHS-D2==
The [[HS Produkt VHS|HS Produkt VHS-D2]] appears on the Update 1.3 as the '''VHS-2''' for the Security faction, available to the Commander, Observer, Rifleman and Demolitions classes. It costs 5 supply points. The VHS-2 can be wielded with the [[HS Produkt VHS-BG]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.

==IMI Galil SAR==
The update 1.4 added [[Galil SAR|IMI Galil SAR]] from the previous game with mounted bipod on default as the makeshift machine gun for the Security's Gunner class. It costs 3 supply points.

The [[M16A2]] is a selectable assault rifle, serving as the Insurgents' counterpart to the [[M16A4]]; the rifles are nearly identical, save for the M16A2's inability to mount as many types of optics while being able to use its unique scope, dubbed "A2 Scope". It costs 3 supply points, and is usable by the Insurgents' Rifleman, Demolitions, Commander, and Observer classes. The M16A2 can be wielded with the [[M203 Grenade Launcher]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.

==M16A4==
The [[M16A4]] returns from the previous game and is the cheapest rifle available to the Security forces, costing 3 supply points. It is usable by the Security's Rifleman, Demolitions, Observer, and Commander classes. The M16A4 can be wielded with the [[M203 Grenade Launcher]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.

==M4A1==
The [[M4A1]] makes its return in the sequel. It is one of the most expensive primary weapons available to the Security forces, costing 5 supply points. It is usable by the Security Rifleman, Demolitions, Commander, and Observer classes. The M4A1 can be wielded with the [[M203 Grenade Launcher]]. Depending on their class, the user can choose smoke shells or HE shells.

==Mk 18 Mod 1==
The [[Mk 18 Mod 1]] replaces the Mk 18 Mod 0 from the original game, appearing as the '''Mk. 18 CQBR'''. As with the M4A1, it is somewhat higher-cost than basic rifles for the Security forces, though costs 4 supply points. It can only be used by the Security's Breacher and Advisor classes.

== Norinco QBZ-03==
An interesting choice alongside Security's VHS-2, the Insurgents get access to the [[Norinco QBZ-03]], specifically the 5.56 export version. The gun has its proprietary scope rail removed (for a clean and smooth top), while its rear sight is located at the rear end of the gun like the original domestic version (the normal foreign export version has the rear sight placed in front of the scope rail, above the magazine well). It costs 5 supply points, making it currently the most expensive assault rifle for Insurgents. On the Update 1.4, it has its own unique scope dubbed "Type 03 Scope".

Also note how a strip of Picatinny rail is added to the top gun's top to mount its rail-mounted optic, while the bottom gun with its unique QBZ-03 scope doesn't have the extra rails.]]

=Battle Rifles=
==FN FAL==
The [[FN FAL]] makes its return in the sequel. It is usable by the Insurgents' Rifleman, Demolitions, Observer, and Commander. It costs 4 supply points and cannot be equipped with a grenade launcher, unlike the other rifles available to the Demolitions class.

==FN SCAR-H STD==
Available to the Security's Advisor class, the [[FN SCAR-H]] makes its official debut in ''Sandstorm'' as the '''Mk. 17 Mod 0'''. It costs 3 supply points.

==Heckler & Koch G3A3==
The [[Heckler & Koch G3A3]] officially appears in the game. It is usable by the Security's Rifleman, Demolitions, Observer, and Commander classes, and is the only rifle available to the Demolitions class that cannot equip a grenade launcher. It costs 4 supply points.

==Norinco SKS-D==
The [[SKS|Norinco SKS-D]] returns from the previous game. It still has a "paratrooper" barrel, but now it also has its bayonet. Like in the previous game, it uses 20-round magazines although it can use 30 round AK mags with the "extended mags" modification, and the bolt still incorrectly locks open upon firing the last shot despite the lack of bolt hold open on Chinese AK mag SKS models. It is available to the Insurgents' Advisor class and costs 2 supply points.

==IMI Galil ARM==
The [[Galil ARM|IMI Galil ARM]] returns from the previous game on the Update 1.4. It is available as the lighter alternative for Insurgents' Gunner class. It costs 3 supply points.

==M240B==
The [[M240B]] GPMG was added in the First Major Content Update as the second option for the Security's Gunner class, costing 4 supply points. It comes with a 50-round belt in a cloth pouch, but can be upgraded to a 100-round belt in a box magazine with other options of sights, barrel attachments and laser sight.

==M249-E2 SAW==
The [[M249_SAW#M249-E1 / M249-E2 / M249 Paratrooper SAW |M249]] is a primary weapon usable by the Security's Gunner class, costing 3 supply points. It comes only with a 200-round belt and can be modified with optics, all barrel attachments and laser sights.

==MG3==
The [[MG3]] was added to the game during the First Major Content Update as the counterpart of M240B for the Insurgents' Gunner class costing 4 supply points. It has a high rate of fire at 1000 rpm, but virtually uncontrollable unless firing with bipod deployed. It comes with a 50-round belt in a drum pouch, but can be upgraded to use 100-round belts in a box magazine, along with optics, suppressor(!) and laser sight.

==PKM==
The [[PKM]] makes its long-awaited arrival to the series in ''Sandstorm.'' It is usable only by the Gunner class. It costs 3 supply points and comes only with a 100-round belt with options for optics, barrel attachments and laser sight.

==Remington 870==
The [[Remington 870]] makes its way into the game, replacing the [[Mossberg 590]] from the previous title. It features black furniture with a railed forend and scope rail added to the receiver, with a ghost ring rear sight. Strangely, it utilizes the Rem-Loc stock system found on the 870 MCS variant. This system allows for quick changes of the stock, and comes with its own unique forend, which the game has omitted in place of the police forend. It is usable by the Security's Breacher class and costs 2 supply points.

==TOZ-194==
Also returning from the 2014 ''Insurgency'' is the Russian [[TOZ-194]] pump action shotgun. It is almost identical to the Remington 870 in nearly all respects, including its magazine size, rate of fire, damage, and so on. It costs 2 supply points and is available to the Insurgents' Breacher class.

==Mosin Nagant 1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant]] costs 2 supply points and is usable by the Insurgents' Marksman class. By default it is the M91/30 rifle with a straight bolt handle and hex receiver, the correct PU scope and turned down bolt handle are appropriately used when opting to use a scope in a fortunate aversion of the bubba-fied Mosin from the previous game. Scopes that do not obstruct the area directly above the ejection port enable the option of stripper clips for faster reloading while empty, at the cost of extra supply points.

[[File:Sandstorm_Mosin_3C.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A modified Mosin with bipod deployed and a turned-down bolt handle. Unlike the previous incarnations, reloading a partially loaded magazine will have the user cover the ejection port to prevent a wasted round from flying off, then load in the balance remaining. Strangely enough, only certain optics will trigger the turned-down bolt handle state (like the MARS seen here), despite the fact that both the rails and sight would otherwise be non-intrusive over the ejection port.]]

==Remington M24==
The [[Remington_700#M24_Sniper_Weapon_System| Remington M24]] makes its way into the game, replacing the old [[M40| M40A1]]. It costs 2 supply points and can be used with iron sights or a variety of optics, up to and including a 7x scope. It reloads one bullet at a time and is usable only by the Security's Marksman class.

==Zijiang M99==
The Chinese [[M99]] anti-materiel rifle appears as the counterpart to the Barrett M107CQ, given to the Insurgents' Marksman class. Like a few other weapons, the M99 comes with its own special scope, dubbed the "Type 99 scope" in the loadout menu.

==M203 Grenade Launcher (Airsoft)==
The [[M203 grenade launcher]] is the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the M16A4 and the M4A1. Unlike the M16A2's M203, this M203 is rail-mounted, and is modeled after airsoft M203s.

==Panzerfaust 3==
The [[Panzerfaust 3]] is available to the Insurgent faction as their analogue of the AT4, being a single-shot launcher oddly enough.

=Grenades and Explosives=
==AN-M14 Incendiary Grenade==
The [[AN-M14 Incendiary Grenade]] returns from the previous game as the identical counterpart of Insurgents' molotov, costing 2 supply points. Both AN-M14 and molotov are able to blow up the weapon cache with only 1 them.

==M112 C4 Demolition Pack==
Serving as the Security's counterpart to the Insurgents' IEDs for the Breacher and Demolition classes, the purchasable "C-4" consists of two M112 C4 Demolition Packs (pre-packaged blocks of C4 issued by the US military) duct-taped to a remote detonator, which is activated with an M57 "clacker" switch. It costs 3 supply points and unlike the IEDs, it can be stick to surfaces like walls and floors. It can also be found when rigging up Security's weapon cache which must be manually detonated.

=Mounted Weapons=
==AGM-114 Hellfire ATGM==
The Security's AH-64 Apache (AKA "Assassin") is armed with eight AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank guided missiles in two packs of four, as well as two Hydra 70mm rocket pods at the wing mounts. The Assassin will fire its missiles into the marked area before switching to the mockup 30mm Cannon.

==Browning M2HB==
The [[Browning M2HB]] appears mounted on the Security's technicals as the counterpart of DShK. The unusable low-detail models can be found on vehicles as environmental props in some maps.

==DShK heavy machine gun==
The [[DShK heavy machine gun| DShKM]] is mounted on the Insurgents' technicals. It has unlimited ammunition and is capable of shredding targets through heavy cover like walls. Oddly enough, it is mounted on the Assassin as the '''30mm Cannon''', instead of the accurate M230 Chain Gun.

==General Dynamics GAU-19/A==
The [[GAU-19/A]] is mounted on Security's UH-60 Blackhawk (AKA "Cleric"), where it is being used by the door gunners. The gun also ejects spent casings when firing.

'''''Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege''''' is a tactical first person shooter available on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Players assume the roles of counter-terrorism operators from around the world, and engage in PvP and PvE combat. In regular gameplay, players play as either Attackers or Defenders on maps designed with clearly defined indoor and outdoor regions. Attackers must enter the central structure of the map and complete objectives like defusing bombs, securing a point, or rescuing a hostage, while the Defenders must prevent the Attackers from achieving their objectives and run down the round timer to win. Eliminating the enemy team is also a victory condition. There is also a PvE mode called Terrorist Hunt.

Players play as "Operators", a roster of characters divided between Attackers and Defenders, with each Operator coming from one counter-terrorist unit background. The five base game CTUs (SAS, GIGN, GSG 9, Spetsnaz, and FBI SWAT) each have 2 attackers and 2 defenders, while the DLC CTUs come with 1 attacker and 1 defender instead (barring the 2-attacker CRBN unit, and the 2-defender GIS). Each Operator carries a unique Operator gadget that defines their abilities and team role (no Operator may be selected twice by the same team). In terms of weaponry, each Operator generally has two primary weapon options (three at most, occasionally one) and one or two secondary options. Weapon selections are divided by CTUs. Generally speaking, Rifles and LMGs are used by Attackers, SMGs are used by Defenders, and Shotguns are mostly used by Defenders though sometimes shared with Attackers. Sidearm options are generally shared between Operators of a CTU. Each Operator also carries a piece of team-specific universal equipment alongside their unique gadget, choosing one from two options.

Also playable are Recruits, who are generic Operators with no special gadgets, instead taking a second piece of universal equipment in place of it. With one exception, all weapons from any of the five base game CTU's "side" are available to them (e.g. a GSG-9 Defender recruit can use either the MP7 or the HK416C, despite each being otherwise exclusive to one of their two Defender operators). Recruit weapons cannot be customized.

The game also features destructible environments for players to take advantage of, primarily blowing holes in walls for a new entry point to flank opponents, creating windows to defend an area without exposing the player's whole body, or shooting through thin walls to suppress enemies.

Free seasonal expansions were added post-release, with each expansion adding two new Operators from one new CTU, and new weapons for those Operators.

All primary and some secondary weapons in the game have "charm mounts" to which keychain-like charms can be attached, which by default appear as sling loops.

For ease of searching, all weapons on this page are primarily ordered by chronology of addition to the game, with the base game weapons near the top of each weapon category and DLC weapons further down.

'''The following weapons can be seen in the video game ''Rainbow Six Siege'':'''

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN|FN Five-seveN Mark 2]] is issued to the FBI SWAT faction, and is also available to Jaeger Corps operator Nøkk added in Year 4 Season 2 Operation Phantom Sight. It appears as the "5.7 USG". The Five-seveN has an appropriate 20+1 capacity, but its overall effectiveness is offset by low stopping power.

==FN FNP-9==
The [[FN FNP-9]] is a high capacity, 9x19mm handgun used by the GIGN Operators and recruits. It is referred to as the "P9". Lion always carries one in a vest holster, in addition to his main sidearm (either another FNP-9 or a Model 586) in his leg holster; the extra pistol is not usable by the player.

==GSh-18 Sport==
The [[GSh-18]] is a sidearm available to the Spetsnaz CTU (the depicted CTU is more specifically Alpha Group of FSB, going under the more generic and well-known Spetsnaz name). As with the two pistols mentioned above, it is the Russians' high capacity, low damage 9x19mm caliber pistol. The particular model used in-game is a GSh-18 Sport, a civilian offering intended for competition shooting, evident by the front cocking serrations and lack of trigger safety.

==Heckler & Koch USP Tactical==
The P12 is the German equipment designation for the [[Heckler & Koch USP Tactical]], used by the German GSG-9 operatives. The loadout icon was originally the same as the FNP-9, but in Update 3.2 the USP was given a new proper icon. Magazine capacity is also wrong for a .45 ACP USP Tactical that is used as the P12 in reality; only 10- or 12-round magazines exist for it.

==M45/MEU(SOC)==
The [[M45/MEU(SOC)]] is the other sidearm available to the FBI SWAT operatives. It appears as the "M45 MEUSOC" and feeds from standard seven-round magazines. Compared to their Five-seveN, the MEU(SOC) offers substantially higher stopping power at the expense of having close to only a third of the former's magazine capacity at only 7 rounds.

==Makarov PM==
Though referred to as the improved PMM, the in-game pistol is actually the older [[Makarov PM]], and is issued to the Russian Spetsnaz.
Likely due to balancing, the weapon is ''obscenely'' powerful, its currently the most powerful sidearm in the game, short of magnum handguns like the S&W 586 and the SEALs' Desert Eagle.

==SIG-Sauer P226 Mk 25==
The SAS faction uses the [[SIG-Sauer P226|SIG-Sauer P226 Mk 25]] as their default handgun of choice. The choice of this particular model is odd, as the military of the UK uses regular P226/P226R pistols under the "L105A1/A2" designation. It also predates the inclusion of a proper US Navy SEAL faction, who, in true tacticool fashion, were given the Desert Eagle as their sidearm instead. Although it should be noted that in-universe, Rainbow is a multinational spec-ops group with no set loadouts for their operators, so they would be theoretically free to use whatever armaments they see fit.

==Smith & Wesson Model 586==
The base game's lone revolver, the [[Smith & Wesson Model 586]] is available to the French GIGN. It appears as the "LFP586". This weapon is likely standing in for the [[Manurhin MR-73]] revolver, which is used in real life by the French GIGN. Compared to their FNP-9, the Model 586 offers substantially greater stopping power per shot, but requires prime shot placement and well timed reloads to offset its stout recoil and low capacity. The only accessory available to the 586 is a laser aiming module mounted onto the trigger guard.

==Inglis Hi-Power==
The Inglis Hi-Power, a Canadian-manufactured version of the [[Browning Hi-Power]], is used by the Canadian JTF2 Operators that appeared in the Operation Black Ice expansion. It appears under the strange name "MK1 9mm".

==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
The classically absurd [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] is used by the Navy SEAL Operators added to the game with the Operation Dust Line expansion, and is also used by the Jaeger Corps operator Nøkk added in the Operation Phantom Sight expansion. Contrary to popular belief, the Desert Eagle has been issued to military forces. The Polish GROM (which appears in the game) as well as the Portuguese Special Operations Group both use the Desert Eagle. It appears as the "D-50", similar to its name in other Ubisoft releases around the same time like ''[[Far Cry 3]]''. Originally released with a chrome default finish, the Operation Velvet Shell update changed the default finish to black.

==Beretta 92==
The [[Beretta 92]] is used by the BOPE Operators from the Operation Skull Rain expansion, labeled in-game as "PRB92." Presumably, these pistols were intended to be vintage [[Taurus PT92]] handguns, but the rounded trigger guard and magazine release located on the butt of the grip are features of the first model Beretta 92.

On another note, the defender Caveira wields a unique "Luison" version that comes pre-equipped with a mineral-based suppressor and fires non-lethal, subsonic rounds. Due to balancing, Lusion used to be able to deal ''more'' damage than a .50 caliber handcannon at close range before being nerfed down, where it now only deals slightly more damage than the Spetsnaz' Makarov (which is still a compact handcannon that puts all other non-magnum sidearms to shame).

==SIG-Sauer P229 Elite==
The [[SIG-Sauer P229|P229 Elite]] is used by the SAT Operators from the Operation Red Crow expansion, and also the Mexican FES operator Goyo from the Operation Ember Rise expansion. It appears as simply the "P229".

==Norinco QSZ-92==
The 9x19mm variant of the [[Norinco QSZ-92]] is used by the SDU Operators featured in the Operation Blood Orchid DLC, but with a lowered capacity of 10 rounds instead of 15. It appears as the "Q-929".

==PR-15 Ragun==
The Polish [[PR-15 Ragun]] was added to the game with the Operation Blood Orchid expansion. It is referred to as the "RG15", and is used by the GROM defender Ela and GROM attacker Zofia (who was released in Operation White Noise, the season after Blood Orchid). It features a permanently-attached SIG ROMEO1 reflex sight which was originally exclusive to this pistol in-game before the inclusion of the Taurus 4510PLYFS with the Italian GIS faction. Interestingly, pre-release renders of Ela showed her instead holding a [[SIG-Sauer P228]] with a red-dot sight.

==CZ 75 Automatic==
The [[CZ 75 Automatic]] using 26 round magazines was added to the game with the Operation White Noise expansion. It is referred to as the "C75 Auto", and is used by the 707th Special Mission Battalion operators. It is classified as Machine Pistol in-game.

The weapon cannot accept any attachments beyond a silencer, despite having a rail on top of the sights, although it technically does come in with a compensator and vertical grip in the form of the spare magazine mounted on the lower frame (which is not usable for quick reloads and its also empty).

==Taurus 4510PLYFS==

The [[Taurus 4510PLYFS]] is a sidearm option for Italian GIS Operators Alibi and Maestro, added in Year 3 Season 2 Operation Para Bellum. It is a .410 shotgun revolver that holds 5 rounds. In ''Siege'', it is called the "Bailiff 410" and comes equipped with a fixed ROMEO1 reflex sight, just as the GROM's PR-15 Ragun does.

==Chiappa Rhino 40DS==
The [[Chiappa Rhino 40DS]], referred to in-game as the "KERATOS .357" ("keratos" being Greek for "horn"), was added in Operation Para Bellum, and can be used by both Alibi and Maestro. It is rather bizarrely depicted as being capable of using a suppressor; with the exception of the [[Nagant M1895]], revolvers fitted with suppressors serve essentially no purpose, as the gases that escape through the gap between the cylinder and barrel would more or less completely negate any noise-reducing effects that the suppressor would otherwise have. This mistake is made even more bizarre by the fact that the game's 2 other revolvers, the [[Taurus 4510PLYFS]] and the [[Smith & Wesson Model 586]], are both correctly shown as being unable to use a suppressor.

==SIG-Sauer 1911 TACOPS==
The [[SIG-Sauer 1911|SIG-Sauer 1911 TACOPS]] is the sidearm of Delta Force and GSUTR ("Grim Sky Urban Tactical Response Team", the CTU added in Year 3 Season 3, Operation Grim Sky) Attacker Operator Maverick. It is equipped with Hogue grip panels and a worn tan finish. Compared to the M45 MEUSOC, the 1911 TACOPS does slightly less damage than the M45, but has the benefit of having one more round due to its 8-round magazine (and a total of 9 with one in the chamber).

==CZ P-10 C==
The [[CZ P-10 C]] is one of the sidearms available to the GSUTR and Metropolitan Police Service Defender Operator Clash added in Year 3 Season 3 Operation Grim Sky, as well as Secret Service operator Warden added in Y4S2 Operation Phantom Sight. It features a permanently-attached SIG ROMEO1 red dot sight like the [[PR-15 Ragun]], and a blue flat-faced HB Industries aftermarket trigger.

==AMC Auto Mag==
The two Moroccan GIGR operators added in Operation Wind Bastion (the attacker Nomad and the defender Kaid) both have access to an [[AMC Auto Mag]] as their sole sidearm option. It goes by the rather generic moniker ".44 Mag Semi-Auto" in-game, and is fitted with Duane Short wood grips and a permanently-affixed low-power pistol scope, the only sidearm in the game to have a sight that grants x2.5 magnification.

The Auto Mag is a rather bizarre choice; if the pistol's heavy weight, low magazine capacity, large size (especially with a scope mounted), and sharp recoil don't make it an impractical option for martial use (not unlike the Navy SEALs' equally ridiculous [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]]), then its significant rarity (and correspondingly high price tag) and nigh-on unobtainable proprietary ammunition certainly do. That said, all these factors convinced Ubisoft that the gun is an unparalleled work of craftsmanship and turned it into a pocket DMR.

Note that the barrel seems to be slightly longer than the one in the reference image (having 4 vents instead of 3), but is not as long as the real gun's alternate 10 inch barrel option, which also lacks the ribs. The barrel seems closer to that of the .22 LR Baby Auto Mag in some respects.]]

==CZ P-09 in CAA Tactical RONI-G2==
Mozzie, the Australian defending operator added in the Operation Burnt Horizon expansion, can wield the "P10 RONI" as a primary weapon option under the submachine gun category; despite having "P10" in the name, it is actually a [[CZ P-09]], converted to full-auto and somehow mounted into a [[CAA Tactical RONI|CAA Tactical RONI-G2]] carbine conversion kit meant for [[Glock]] pistols. It lacks the spare magazine holder and the foregrip is absent by default, though the foregrip is reattached with the Angled Grip and Vertical Grip attachments. It has a unique Holographic Sight modeled after the Vortex Razor UH-1.

==Sphinx SDP Compact Duty==
The pistol sidearm option for both Australian SASR operators added in the Operation Burnt Horizon expansion is the [[Sphinx 3000|Sphinx SDP Compact Duty]] with a "Krypton" (OD green) frame, going by the name "SDP 9mm" in-game.

=Submachine Guns=
This section primarily covers two in-game categories, Submachine Guns and Machine Pistols. As they're meant to fight in close quarters, SMGs are primarily used by the defenders, although a few are available to attackers. None are used by AI enemies in Terrorist Hunt.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] is available to the GIGN Defenders. It can be equipped with an extended barrel that turns it into a fully-automatic PS90 carbine. Its one of the few SMGs capable of using an ACOG sight.

==Heckler & Koch MP5 MLI==
The [[Heckler & Koch MP5 MLI]] is also usable by the GIGN Recruit and Defense operators. It appears as the "MP5". Its one of the few SMGs capable of using an ACOG sight.
[[file:Heckler-Koch-MP5-MLI.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch MP5 MLI - updated with a triple-rail forearm, a quick-release-mount, and the new RAL8000 color scheme - 9x19mm]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW==
The [[Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW]] is available in the game. Its used by SAS recruits and Mute. Unlike the MP5 MLI and MP5SD, it is not capable of using an ACOG sight.

==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
The [[Heckler & Koch MP7A1]] is issued to the GSG-9 Defense Recruit and Bandit. It has a 30 round magazine capacity despite being modeled with the 40 round magazine. At launch, the charging handle was for some reason modeled to be permanently in its pulled back position, even visible on HUD icons; this error was fixed in "Operation Black Ice" update. In of the Dust Line update, the carabiner clipped to the rear sling mount was removed in favor of a "charm" mount instead.

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is used by the FBI Defenders. The charging handle incorrectly locks back on its own when the magazine is emptied, similar to the MP5 in ''[[Far Cry 3]]'' and ''[[Far Cry 4]]''. It has a three-round burst mode; the real UMP45 only has a two-round burst mode.

==PP-19-01 Vityaz-SN==
The [[PP-19-01 Vityaz]] appears as the "9×19VSN" and is available to Spetsnaz defenders Tachanka and Kapkan, as well as the Recruit on defense. It is heavily customized with Zenitco furniture, including a B-13 optic mount that remains permanently on the weapon, optic on or off.

==MAC-10==
A [[MAC-10]] with the upper receiver of a MasterPiece Arms MPA10SST appears as the "SMG-11," as in ''[[Watch_Dogs]]''. The shape of the ejection port denotes it as the .45 ACP version. It is one of the few secondary SMGs available, and is used by all SAS members except Thatcher, as well as Peruvian Operator Amaru.

The weapon uses a 30-round magazine, but for balancing reasons it only has half that at 16 rounds.

==="SMG-12"===
The "SMG-12" is a sidearm available to the Korean 707th SMB Operators and US Secret Service Operator Warden. It appears to be a further development of the SAS's "SMG-11". It appears to have the general receiver design of the MasterPiece Arms MPA935SST, the trigger guard of the MasterPiece Arms MPA930DMG, a wire stock, and a large KeyMod foreend with rail bits. It was initially integrally suppressed, although this feature was removed in the first Year 3 patch.

While weaker than the SMG-11 due to its smaller cartridge; it has the benefit of having a 32-round magazine and the ability to use an angled foregrip to increase ADS speed.

==Magpul FMG-9==
The [[Magpul FMG-9]] is available in the game, and is used by SAS operator Smoke and the SAS Defender Recruit. It has also recently been available to Jaeger Corps operator Nøkk who is on the attacker's side, making it the second available primary SMG available to attackers, after Jackal's UDP-9.

The weapon performs similarly to the MP5-K, but with worse damage drop-off at range. A strange fact when you consider that the FMG-9 has a longer barrel than the MP5K.

==C1 Submachine Gun==
The [[Sterling SMG|C1 Submachine Gun]], the Canadian variant of the Sterling Mk.4 Submachine Gun, has been available in the game since the Operation Black Ice expansion was released. It is referred to as the "9mm C1", and is exclusive to the JTF-2 Defender Frost.

The weapon can be equipped with a suppressor or extended barrel that turns it into a carbine. Additionally, its one of the few SMGs that can't use a vertical grip and can only use an angled foregrip (although due to its low recoil and slow firing rate; it still remains stable even at full auto).

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
The [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] is one of the weapons available to the Navy SEAL operator Valkyrie and the Secret Service operator Warden, simply referred to in-game as the "MPX". It is a cross between the prototype version and the Gen 1 model, as it has the left-side receiver components of the former, but with the right-side receiver components, 8" barrel, and telescoping stock of the latter.

[[File:RSS MPX (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Neither one of them has quite figured out how to use the bolt release paddle though. As an additional trivia, Warden has unique sprint animations for all of his weapons, different from the standard gun to the side sprint animation. For most weapons, including the MPX, he sprints with the gun in one hand, pointed upwards. For his other primary, the M590A1, he sprints with the gun sideways and tilted. Here we can see the ejection port, mag release and ambidextrous bolt catch of an MPX Gen 1.]]

==Beretta PM12S==
The [[Beretta M12]], with the stock extended, is one of the weapons available to the BOPE defender Caveira. As with other open bolt weapons in-game, it is incorrectly portrayed as having an additional round in the chamber.

The weapon can be equipped with a long carbine-length barrel.

==Heckler & Koch MP5SD2==
The [[Heckler & Koch MP5SD|Heckler & Koch MP5SD2]] is one of the weapons available to the SAT Defender Echo. It is referred to as the "MP5SD". The weapon performs similarly like the MP5 MLI, but is equipped with a built-in suppressor that does not reduce its damage.

==Angstadt Arms UDP-9==
The [[Angstadt Arms UDP-9]] is available in the game with the Operation Velvet Shell expansion. It is referred to as the "PDW9", and is used by the GEO operator Jackal, initially the only primary SMG available to the attacking side until the introduction of Nøkk who is armed with an FMG-9. It feeds from KCI 50-round 9mm Glock drum magazines (also known by other imported rebranded names such as SGM Tactical drum mags) and has a Rainier Arms ambidextrous charging handle. It has a burst mode in-game, which the real UDP-9 lacks.

==TDI Vector==
A Gen I / Gen II hybrid [[TDI Vector]] is available in the game with the Operation Velvet Shell expansion. It is referred to as the "Vector .45 ACP" (the same name it goes by in the ''Far Cry'' games), and is available to GEO operator Mira and Mexican Fuerzas Especiales operator Goyo. It holds 25 + 1 rounds, and has an additional 2-round burst firing mode like in reality.

A fictional 7.62x51mm NATO version appears as the primary choice for GIGN CBRN specialist Lion, of the Operation Chimera expansion. It bears a strong resemblance to the sci-fi weapon design "HK G56" by concept artist AlexJJessup, and uses an X Products type drum magazine, similar to the X-91 already used by the G8A1 in-game, though this one is adapted for the fictional .308 Vector magwell. It is referred to as the "V308".

==Jianshe CS/LS2==
The [[QCW-05#Jianshe CS/LS2|Jianshe CS/LS2]] is one of the weapons available to the SDU Defender Lesion. It is referred to as the "T-5 SMG", and is depicted with an incorrect closed bolt operation.

==CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1 Carbine==
The [[CZ_Scorpion_Evo_3_series#CZ_Scorpion_Evo_3_A1|CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1 Carbine]], a civilian variant of the Scorpion Evo 3 A1, is one of the primary weapons available to the GROM Defender Ela. Unlike its real-world counterpart, (a civilian semi-auto carbine), it fires full-auto in-game like a standard Evo 3 A1; interestingly, it is modeled with the correct fire selector for such a weapon, rather than the 2-position safe-semi selector of the S1. It uses magazines fitted with CZ Custom magazine extensions; this initially gave them a correct (and, as many players complained, completely overpowered) capacity of 50 rounds, but this was later reduced to 40, for balance reasons. It also sports a HB Industries THETA trigger and charging handle in a bright green color, and the extended receiver features Picatinny rails on the M-LOK slots.

==Beretta Mx4 Storm==
The [[Beretta Mx4 Storm]] is a submachine-gun available to Italian GIS operator: Alibi, who was added during Operation Para Bellum.

==Brügger & Thomet MP9-N==
The [[Brügger & Thomet MP9|Brügger & Thomet MP9-N]] is one of the sidearms available to the SCO19 (and GSUTR) operator Clash (her primary weapon is the CCE Shield, meaning that she only has firearms as secondary options), added in Operation Grim Sky. It is referred to as the "SPSMG9", uses 20-round magazines, features a permanently attached red dot sight, and is locked in two-round burst fire mode.

A future update removed the two-round burst and allowed it to fire on full-auto, making it a true secondary machine pistol.

==Steyr AUG A3 9mm XS==
The [[Steyr AUG A3 9mm XS]] is one of the weapons available to the Moroccan GIGR Defender Kaid added in Operation Wind Bastion. It is referred to as the "AUG A3". It bizarrely has a capacity of 31 + 1.

==Colt 9mm Submachine Gun==
The [[Colt 9mm Submachine Gun]], specifically the R0991 model, is available as a primary option for the Australian defensive operator Mozzie added in Operation Burnt Horizon. It is modeled with a fixed stock, similarly to the R6430 model. It is referred to in-game as the "Commando 9", and holds 25 + 1 rounds. Bizarrely, it is currently incorrectly classified as an assault rifle, like the HK416-C (and unlike the K1A), even though it doesn't even have the stats to match its classification.

=Rifles & Carbines=
With the exception of the HK416C and Daewoo K1A, these weapons are only usable by Attackers in Multiplayer. This large category of weapons is also sub-divided into Assault Rifles and Marksman Rifles in-game, the latter of which all fire semi-auto only.

==AK-12==
The 2013 prototype variation of the [[AK-12]] is issued to the Spetsnaz recruit and operator Fuze.

==Enfield L85A2==
The [[L85A2|Enfield L85A2]] is available in the game, and issued to all SAS Attackers. Despite having a long, railed handguard, it is not capable of using an angled foregrip.

It is also the primary weapon of the "White Mask" terrorists in the Terrorist Hunt mode. Why they chose to use a assault rifle, made in limited numbers, near-unobtainable spare parts, and plagued with a variety of design issues even after its improvement, as their service weapon, is as much as a mystery as the White Masks' relevance in Siege in general.

==FAMAS F1==
The [[FAMAS F1]] appears in the game as the "F2" and so far incorrectly holds 30 rounds in 25-round magazines. It is used by the GIGN Attacker Recruit and Operator Twitch.

==Heckler & Koch G36C==
The [[Heckler & Koch G36C]] is available in the game, and exclusively used by FBI Attacker Ash.

The gun was frequently overlooked due to its complete inferiority to her other weapon: the R4C, until a later patch made it that the G36C is the only gun in Ash's arsenal that can use an ACOG optic (which grants a very valuable x2.5 view magnification).
[[file:Hkg36c.jpg|thumb|450px|none|Heckler & Koch G36C - 5.56x45mm]]

==Heckler & Koch HK33A2==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK33A2]] appears as the "AR33", and is used by SAS Operator Thatcher and SAS recruits. It uses a 30-round magazine, though it only holds 25 rounds. It has a permanently attached optic rail, a rail on the bottom of the handguard, and a "charm mount" was on the left side of the stock, above the stock pins, but was updated to be on the rearward most claw on the optic mount. The rear sight is removed when using optics.

==Heckler & Koch HK416C==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK416C]] is appears as the "416-C Carbine". Prior to the "White Noise" update that added the Daewoo K1A for Vigil, it was the only assault rifle usable on the Defender's side; issued to the GSG-9 Recruit and Jäger.

The weapon can be equipped with a 14.5 inch extended barrel, which would technically make it a standard HK416.

==Heckler & Koch HK417==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK417]] is available to the GIGN attacker recruit, Twitch, and GIGN CBRN specialist Lion. It is intended to be used as a DMR, as it is restricted to semi-auto only. It is also modeled with a 20-round magazine, which is rendered solid instead of transparent, but at release it had the in-game capacity of only 10 rounds; this was buffed and fixed to the correct 20 rounds in Operation Ember Rise.

==Remington R4-C==
A [[Remington R4|Remington R4-C]] appears simply as the "R4-C" and is available to the FBI SWAT recruit and offensive Operator Ash. It is modeled with a Magpul MOE pistol grip, CTR buttstock, and Remington RAHG modular forend with rail sections permanently installed. The weapon's charm mount is located in the middle of the receiver, close to the top rail.

To encourage loadout variety, the R4-C is the only attacker assault rifle in the game not able to mount an ACOG sight (which provides a x2.5 magnified view, a very sought-after feature in the game).

==SIG SG 552==
The [[SIG SG 552]] is appears as the "552 Commando". Like in [[Rainbow Six: Vegas|previous]] [[Rainbow Six: Vegas 2|games]], it has a 30 round magazine capacity despite being modeled with the 20 round magazine. It can be seen in terrorist hands in the Terrorist Hunt mode. The SG 552 is used by GSG-9 Attacker recruits and IQ.

==SIG-Sauer SIG556xi SWAT==
The [[SIG SG 556|SIG-Sauer SIG556xi SWAT]] with a full-auto lower and a 16" barrel is available to operative Thermite and the FBI Recruit.

A fun little trivia: in the "Inside Rainbow" trailer series showcasing the CTUs, Glaz is seen using the weapon in the the SAS, FBI SWAT, and GIGN trailers. The model is slightly different, with more segments on the handguard and R4-C-styled diamond iron sights, and is also incredibly broken - it sounds like an OTs-03 when fired, and Glaz's hand isn't even on the trigger when firing. He got the proper SVU model by the release of the GSG-9 and the Spetsnaz trailers.

==SVU Dragunov==
The [[SVU Dragunov]] appears as the "OTs-03", and is used by the Spetsnaz operator Glaz. The weapon has the best surface-penetrating capabilities of any weapon, being capable of piercing a wide variety of surfaces with a minimal loss of damage, and, prior to Operation White Noise and its addition of the "BOSG. 12.2", being the only weapon capable of shooting through airplane windows (specifically the reinforced airplane windows on the map "Presidential Plane", which is also the only place where they appear); after the aforementioned weapon's mechanics were changed, it once again became the only weapon capable of such a feat.

Glaz's unique gadget is the magnifier on the rifle, which can be flipped into or out of the main sight plane; this does not actually require an optical sight to use, with the front iron sight serving as the reticule instead in the absence of other optics. The sight is originally a rather odd red-tinted (or completely clear, as shown in the Spetsnaz trailer) magnifier called the "HDS Flip Sight", which had no effect other than a bit of zoom. In the Velvet Shell Mid-Season Reinforcements, the magnifier lost its red tint and gained a thermal effect, highlighting enemies by their heat signature; this effect, strangely, only applies to a smaller central blue-tinted circle in the magnifier, rather than the entire thing.

A rather neat detail is that after the thermal sight update, the sight model had an extra clip-on thermal imager added to it.

A [[Colt Model 933]] with the carrying handle removed, a KAC RIS handguard, Colt Canada-type M4 stock, and using Magpul PMAGs with Ranger plates has been available for JTF-2 operator Buck since the Operation Black Ice expansion was released. It is referred to incorrectly as the "[[C8 SFW]]", but is identifiable as a 933 by its 11.5" barrel. It also incorrectly has a cut in the barrel for an [[M203 grenade launcher]].

It is equipped with a M26 Modular Accessory Shotgun System, which is actually Buck's special gadget, the "Skeleton Key". Details of it can be seen below.

==C1A1==
The [[FN_FAL#L1A1|C1A1]], the Canadian variant of the L1A1 SLR, is Buck's second primary weapon choice from the Operation Black Ice expansion. It is referred to as the "CAMRS", and is fitted with an L1A1 SLR's synthetic stock and handguard. Like the "C8-SFW", Buck's special gadget the "Skeleton Key" (a M26 Modular Accessory Shotgun System) is attached to the weapon, details of which can be seen below.

It is only capable of semi-auto fire, accurate for a C1A1.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The [[FN SCAR-H CQC]] has been available in the game since the Operation Dust Line expansion was released, for Navy SEAL operator Blackbeard. It is referred to as the "Mk17 CQB".

The weapon is powerful, but is plagued by having the slowest ADS speed of any assault rifle in the game.

A [[FN FAL#DSA SA58 OSW|DSA SA58 OSW Carbine]] standing in for the for the real-world updated Brazilian-made [[FN_FAL#IMBEL M964 A1 ParaFAL|IMBEL M964 A1 MD-1 ParaFAL]] is the main battle rifle available to BOPE operator Capitão, under the name of "PARA-308". It has a worn tan finish and holds 30 rounds per magazine; the magazine depicted in-game is too short for that, but is also too long to be 20-rounder - 25 rounds would be a good guess.

==Colt Canada C7==
The [[M16_rifle_series#Diemaco_C7.2FColt_Model_715|Colt Canada C7]] is used exclusively by GEO Operator "Jackal" who was added with the "Operation Velvet Shell" DLC. The weapon in-game is modeled after the C7NLD, an officially dubbed, custom variant of the C7 used by the Armed Forces of the Netherlands. Along with the Dutch handguard, it is fitted with a Magpul PRS, uses PMAGs with Ranger Plates, and has the same charging handle as the UDP-9. It is named the "C7E" in-game, and is incorrectly depicted as having both fully-automatic and burst-fire modes.

==Daewoo K1A==
A customized [[Daewoo K1A]] is available for 707th SMB operator Vigil with the Operation White Noise expansion. It is referred to as the "K1A" and is classified as a submachine gun; while this isn't correct from a technical standpoint, it is at least correct in the sense that that's how the Korean military classifies it. The gameplay seems to go with the SMG route too, having a damage and recoil profile more similar to other SMGs than the assault rifles.

==Troy Industries Rock SOPMOD M14==
The [[ROCK SOPMOD M14|Troy Industries Rock SOPMOD M14]] is used exclusively by 707th SMB operator Dokkaebi who was added with the Operation White Noise expansion. It is incorrectly designated "Mk 14 EBR" and locked in semi-automatic.

==Beryl M762==
A heavily customized [[Beryl M762]] is the primary choice for GROM operator Zofia of the Operation White Noise expansion, named simply as "M762". It is fitted with the Midwest Industries Extended Handguard, a Hera Arms CQR stock, and a railed dust cover in lieu of its standard rail assembly. The assortment of customizations is primarily inspired by a [http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2016/12/30/hera-arms-cqr-stock-ak-rifle/ photoshopped AK] reported by The Firearms Blog, which is an [https://www.flickr.com/photos/stickgunner/21074884113/ AK-103-lookalike with the Midwest Industries Gen 1 SS-Extended Handguard] with the Hera Arms CQR stock photoshopped in.

==Saritch==
A compact version of the [[Saritch]] design concept is the primary choice for Spetsnaz CBRN specialist Finka, of the Operation Chimera expansion. This design is one conceived military version of the Saritch proposed by its designer but never mocked up, with 30-round magazines, automatic fire and a compact barrel. The in-game model is modeled quite closely after concept art from the designer. A right-facing ejection port has been added to the weapon, and the forearm is replaced with a set of underbarrel rails. It is referred to as the "Spear .308".

==M4A1 Block II==
Available for SFOD-D (and GSUTR) operator Maverick of the Operation Grim Sky expansion, a carbine indexed as the "M4" appears to be a customized [[M4A1 Carbine|M4A1 Block II]]. It features a Daniel Defense MK18 RIS II 9.5 inch railed handguard and a 12.5 inch barrel instead of the usual 14.5 inch barrel, along with a tan Command Arms UPG16 modular pistol grip (a copy of the Fab Defense/Mako AG-43), rail covers, and a standard 6-position M4 stock. The weapon is marked "M4A1 Carbine" on the left side of the mag-well where the usual roll marks would be. Equipping the "M4" with the Heavy Barrel attachment gives it a longer (seemingly 16 inch) barrel, more in line the a normal M4A1, though still with the short DD forend.

It incorrectly features semi-auto, 3-round burst, and fully automatic fire modes, even though it has an M4's Safe/Semi/Burst fire selector, while being marked as an M4A1. Additionally, the developers forgot to model a gas block onto the standard or extended barrel, so in reality Maverick's using a bolt-action M4 that's only capable of automatic fire through the power of video game magic.

Maverick's STANAG magazines have improvised magazine assists in the form of Paracord looped into the baseplate and duck-tape around the bottom of the mag. It has a unique suppressor model, which is wrapped in lots of cloth like Caviera's Luison's suppressor, to help remove the mirage from when the can is hot and make it safer to re-tighten it. Equipping the compensator gives it a unique XM177-style moderator.]]

==Alexander Arms .50 Beowulf==
The [[Alexander Arms .50 Beowulf]] is available for the SFOD-D attacker Maverick with the Operation Grim Sky expansion. It is referred to as the "AR-15.50", and is correctly semi-automatic. It is fitted with a Mako Group Recoil Reducing GL-Shock stock, a Mako Group MWG (mag well grip), and a Magpul BAD Lever (which is never used, Maverick instead pulling the charging handle on empty reloads).

The weapon used Surefire 60-round quad-stack magazines at release, but only holds 10 rounds in gameplay - not that this really matters, since the internal geometry of the Surefire magazine would render .50 Beowulf rounds unable to fit anyways. The Operation Burnt Horizon update apparently acknowledged this, replacing the magazine with a more sensible 30-rounder, fitted with a Magpul handling loop; this also fixes the capacity issue, since 30-round STANAG magazines can fit only ten .50 Beowulf rounds.

=="AK-74M"==
The "AK-74M" is an assault rifle available for GIGR operator Nomad of the Operation Wind Bastion expansion. Instead of being an actual [[AK-74M]], the in-game weapon the appears to be an [[AKM]] customized with Magpul MOE pistol grip, stock, hand guard, and a rail mount. Telltale signs of the in-game weapon model being based on an AKM is its ribbed dust cover, original slanted gas block, and its magazine being a waffle-pattern 7.62x39mm magazine (that holds 40 rounds) instead of 5.45×39mm that the AK-74M actually uses.

The right side of the in-game weapon features a white piece near the stock, which exists on the real AK-74M as a component of its side-folding stock. Despite this, the in-game weapon does not have a folding stock, and even lacks the corresponding button on the other side of the receiver for the AK-74M's folding stock.

More bizarrely, the lower receiver is marked "WASR-10 Cal. 5.45×39mm"; the [[WASR-10]] is indeed an AK variant, but is 7.62x39mm like the AKM, and is also semi-automatic only while the in-game weapon is select-fire. The in-game receiver also most definitely isn't based on a WASR-10 since it has standard AK dimples which the WASR-10 lacks.

Just to confuse matters further, the Operation Burnt Horizon update replaced the 7.62x39mm magazine model with a 5.45x39mm one, appropriate for an actual AK-74M, but not for anything else that the gun is based on.

==Beretta ARX-200==
The [[Beretta ARX-200]] is available for the GIGR attacker Nomad with the Operation Wind Bastion expansion. In comparison to her frankensteined AKM, the ARX-200 does more damage, at the cost of having higher recoil and lower magazine size.

=Machine Guns=
With exception to the mounted DP-28 (technically a special gadget) and Maestro's CETME Ameli, Machine Guns are issued only to Attackers. As with the MAC-11, most open bolt machine guns incorrectly track +1 in the chamber.

==Degtyaryov DP-28==
The Spetsnaz operator Tachanka can deploy a tripod-mounted [[Degtyaryov DP-28]]. Despite being referred as the RP-46 (belt-fed version with a pistol grip), it has the original buttstock and magazines (with an incorrect 60-round capacity – this would be correct for the [[Degtyaryov DT|DT]] variant, though – instead of 47) of the DP-28, and Tachanka does refer to it as "DP-28" sometimes when deploying it. Tachanka has been said to seek out original Soviet-made parts for his weapon, however, and even going so far as to mill his own if he can't find such, making it possible that he's modified an RP-46 into a weapon resembling the DP-28.

A patch released in December 2016 added a reinforced glass shield to the turret (modeled after [http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Gun_shield_1805.jpg this particular shield], and marked with the Russian word for "Lord" acknowledging the Lord Tachanka meme), making its usage somewhat more viable. With the release of "Operation: Blood Orchid", the deploy animation is a bit faster, as Tachanka keeps a magazine loaded in the machine gun at all times, instead of having to load and unload when setting up or moving the turret.

==Heckler & Koch G8A1==
The G8A1, the German military version of the [[Heckler & Koch HK11|Heckler & Koch HK11A1]], is available in the game for IQ, the GSG-9 Recruit, and Peruvian Operator Amaru introduced in Year 4 Season 3 Operation Ember Rise. It has a [[G3]] rear sight, added rails, and uses X Products X-91 50-round drum magazines.

==PKP Pecheneg==
A [[PKP Pecheneg]] with an aftermarket bullpup conversion kit manufactured by Zenit is used by the Spetsnaz attacker Recruit, Fuze, and Spetsnaz CBRN specialist Finka. Some suicide bombers also use it in Terrorist Hunt; they are a force to be reckoned with.

==M249 SAW==
The second option for BOPE attacker Capitão is the [[FN Minimi|M249 SAW]]. It has a newer FN Minimi Mk 3 collapsible stock and sports a worn beige finish by default, similar to his SA58 OSW. Until Operation Blood Orchid, it incorrectly tracked a round in the chamber.

Later, in Operation Burnt Horizon, Australian attacker Gridlock has a near-identical M249 as a primary weapon option, albeit without the beige finish. Hers somewhat bafflingly uses a 60-round Surefire quad-stack magazine shoved into the emergency STANAG magazine well, rather than a belt; while this isn't strictly ''impossible'', the M249's magwell is notoriously unreliable, and belts are preferred whenever possible. It has access to a unique scope attachment, which works like the pistol scope on the Auto Mag Pistol.

==Norinco QBB-95==
The [[Norinco QBB-95]] is available in the game with the Operation Blood Orchid expansion. It is indexed as the "T-95 LSW", and is usable by the SDU attacker Ying. The weapon's description inaccurately states that it fires 5.56mm rounds, even though the weapon model is clearly based on the 5.8x42mm version. The QBB is also modeled with several T97.ca upgrades from civilian Type-97 rifles, such as the Flat-Top Upper, Enhanced Trigger Group, and Lower Hand Guard upgrades.

==Krytac Trident LMG-E==
The same airsoft gun based on the [[Ares Shrike]] from ''[[Ghost Recon: Wildlands]]'' appears in ''Siege'' under the designation of "LMG-E". The "LMG-E" is used exclusively by GROM operator Zofia, of the Operation White Noise expansion.

==CETME Ameli==
The [[CETME Ameli]] is added in Operation Para Bellum as the "ALDA 5.56". Being a primary option for Defense Operator Maestro, it is the only portable LMG available to Defenders.
[[Image:CetmeAmeli556.jpg|thumb|none|500px|CETME Ameli - 5.56x45mm]]

The in-game belt box also opens to the right rather than to the left like on the real belt boxes. Due to the right-sided belt box opening, Maestro uses an unorthodox process where he locks the first round in position (as pictured here) and then pulls the box out to attach it to the left side of the weapon, as opposed to the standard "attach the belt box first and then pull out the belt" procedure.]]

=Shotguns=
Shotguns are available to both sides in Multiplayer. Given the game's emphasis on micro-destruction, they make great assets in "redecorating" the interiors throughout the game's levels, except for the ones that fire slugs.
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] is available in the game, and goes by its US Military designation of M1014. Although in-game, the M4 holds 7+1 rounds, it is modeled with a 4-round civilian magazine-tube. The Benelli M4 is usable by every FBI operator except Ash.

==FABARM SDASS Compact==
A [[Heckler & Koch FABARM FP6|FABARM SDASS Compact]] with ghost ring sights of the "Tactical" model appears as the "SG-CQB". It can be used by every GIGN operator sans Montagne, who favors "Le Rock," a massive riot shield in exchange of a primary weapon.

==Saiga-12K==
A heavily customized [[Saiga 12|Saiga-12K]], most closely resembling ones customized by the Hatcher Gun Company, appears as the "SASG-12" (which ''[[The Division]]'' followed suit with). It has a RIS foregrip with an aftermarket front sight and an AK-12 rear sight mounted on top, an aftermarket trigger-guard, Hogue pistol grip, and a CAA CBS AR-15 stock. It uses 8-round box magazines. The Saiga-12 is used primarily by Spetsnaz defenders, though the attacker recruit and Finka may use it as well.

The weapon is the most powerful semi-automatic shotgun available that uses buckshot, but is offset by having the highest recoil aswell.

==Mossberg 590A1 Blackwater==
The [[Mossberg 590A1|Mossberg 590A1 Blackwater]] is available in the game, issued to the SAS and the Secret Service operator Warden. The M590A1 is also somewhat used by terrorists in the Terrorist Hunt mode, though they usually carry assault rifles. Although in-game, the M590A1 hold 7 rounds, it is modeled with a 9-round magazine-tube.

The weapon lacks damage, but offers decent RoF and recoil control.

==Remington 870 (G&P M870 RAS)==
A short-barreled [[Remington 870]] equipped with a Command Arms UPG16 modular pistol grip, 6-postion M4 stock, bolted-on extended top rail, and flip-up iron sights is available to both the GSG-9 Attacker and Defender recruits, and both the GSG-9 Defender operators Jäger and Bandit. It is closely modeled after the G&P M870 RAS, an airsoft Remington 870.

The weapon is the second most powerful shotgun in the game, although somewhat "balanced" by the fact that its efficiency diminishes greatly beyond point-blank range.

==Benelli M3 Super 90 Shorty==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90|Benelli M3 Super 90 Shorty]] has been available in the game since the Operation Black Ice expansion was released, for JTF-2 defender Frost. It is referred to as the "Super 90," and operates exclusively in semi-automatic mode.

==M26 Modular Accessory Shotgun System==
The JTF-2 operator Buck uses the [[M26 Modular Accessory Shotgun System]] as his gadget, equipped to whatever primary weapon (i.e. "C8-SFW" or "CAMRS") he is using. It is named the Skeleton Key, an obvious allusion to the [[Knight's Armament Masterkey]]'s name, and also a likely nod to how the fictional Skeleton Key can open any door, paired with the fact the M26 was designed to be a door-breaching (or wall-breaching as the design is applied in ''Siege'') shotgun. It has a very large spread that limits its use in combat and at range, but is ''very'' destructive, able to create giant peek holes on walls with ease when combined with its spread. Like in [[Rainbow Six: Vegas|previous]] [[Rainbow Six: Vegas 2|games]], the M26 in the game is semi-automatic, while the real one is a straight-pull bolt action.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[Franchi SPAS-12]] was released in the Operation Dustline update as a possible loadout option for Navy SEAL operator Valkyrie. As with the Benelli M3, it operates only in semi-automatic mode.
[[File:SPAS12.jpg|thumb|450px|none|Franchi SPAS-12 - 12 gauge]]

==Franchi SPAS-15==
The last addition of the Operation Skull Rain update is the SPAS-12's successor, the [[Franchi SPAS-15]], used exclusively by BOPE operator Caviera. It is depicted as semi-automatic only, and properly utilizes its bolt catch mechanism.

==Benelli Supernova==
The [[Benelli Supernova]] was added in the Operation Red Crow expansion, and is available to both SAT Operators, and the Peruvian Operator Amaru added in Y4S3. Its low damage and slow cycling speed takes a toll on its damage output, but offers excellent recoil control.

==FABARM STF 12==
Two variants of the [[FABARM STF 12]] are introduced in Operation Velvet Shell, the Pistolgrip F.E. (without the muzzle brake) as the primary "ITA12L" and the Short Initial as the secondary "ITA12S". The ITA12S was the only secondary shotgun available in the game until the release of the "Super Shorty" in Operation Burnt Horizon of 2019. Both variants are available for both G.E.O. operators introduced in Operation Velvet Shell, while the secondary ITA12S is also available to Peruvian Operator Amaru introduced in Operation Ember Rise.

==Crye Precision Six12==
The [[Crye Precision Six12]] is available for both SDU operators introduced in Operation Blood Orchid, and comes in two variants, the standard variant as "SIX12" for Attack operator Ying and the integrally suppressed as "SIX12 SD" for Defense operator Lesion. Danish Jaeger Corps Operator Nøkk, added in Y4S2, also uses the SIX12 SD.

==Fostech Origin-12==
The [[Fostech Origin-12]] is available in the game with the Operation Blood Orchid expansion. It is referred to as the "FO-12", and is used by the GROM defender Ela. The weapon currently has the highest RoF out of any semi-automatic shotgun in the game and can also be equipped with a long-barrel to increase its damage over distances.

=="BOSG.12.2"==
The "BOSG.12.2" (BOSG presumably standing for Break-Open Shotgun, compare with how "SASG" likely stands for Semi-Auto Shotgun) is a tactical over/under shotgun that is usable by the 707th SMB operators introduced in the Operation White Noise expansion. It shares many design elements with the [[Mossberg HS12|Mossberg Maverick HS-12]] and Stoeger Double Defense Over and Under shotguns. It fires slug shells, unlike the other shotguns in the game. These slugs are extremely powerful and accurate, even at longer ranges. Plus its ability to fire both barrels in quick succession allows it to devastate operators once hit. Although, as a trade-off, its 2-round capacity and long reload time heavily punishes missed shots, plus its ability to damage the environment is limited.

During public testing, the weapon was originally capable of penetrating the bulletproof windows of the executive jet in the "Presidential Plane" map, something only Glaz's SVU can do, but this ability was later removed in the official release.

==AA-12==
Added in Operation Para Bellum, the "ACS12" is a modified [[AA-12]], and can be used by Maestro and Alibi alike. Its standard iron sights are missing, the weapon instead being fitted with a G36C-like top rail system for mounting optics, a corresponding low-profile extended charging handle, and a handguard seemingly inspired by the [[Mk 14 Enhanced Battle Rifle]]'s Kydex handguard, with rail segments on its sides and bottom. It uses 20 or 32-round drum magazines in-game, which incorrectly hold 30 rounds (plus an incorrect 1 in the chamber, Ubisoft either not realizing or caring that the AA-12 is open-bolt).

Of note is that the addition of the "ACS-12" marks the appearance of ''Siege'''s first (and so far only) fully-automatic shotgun, which also makes it the single most destructive weapon in terms of environmental destruction, able to eat through an entire wall in seconds. Balancing out its full-auto capability is its very big spread and the lowest damage of any shotgun in the game, but that's just another plus when you're busy bulldozing entire rooms because it allows more destruction per shot.

Incidentally, the name "ACS-12" was first used for this weapon in a previous Ubisoft game, ''[[Splinter Cell: Blacklist]]''. Presumably Ubisoft has its own dictionary for non-trademark-infringing weapon names for its allegedly interconnected video game universe spanning multiple franchises.

==Akdal Arms MKA 1919==
A heavily customized Turkish-made [[Akdal Arms MKA 1919]] semi-automatic shotgun is available with the Operation Wind Bastion Expansion. The customizations include the lower receiver being modified to fit a [[Bushmaster ACR]] stock and Magpul MOE pistol grip, a modified Chaos quad-rail hand guard, a shortened 13" barrel with appropriately modified gas-system, the front sight repinned to the barrel, an enlarged charging handle and bolt-release paddle, and custom 10-round magazines.

Simply dubbed "TCSG12" in-game, the weapon is used by GIGR defender Kaid and Mexican FES defender Goyo. The shotgun only fires slugs, just like the "BOSG-12.2", and is the first slug-firing shotgun to have an ACOG sight, turning it into the defenders' only pseudo-DMR primary, more than anything else. The weapon's only barrel attachment is the suppressor.

==Remington 870 MCS==
While referred to as a "[[Serbu Super Shorty|Super Shorty]]", the secondary shotgun made available to both Australian operators in Operation Burnt Horizon is actually a [[Remington 870 MCS]], in the short-barreled "Masterkey" configuration, as evidenced by the MCS's distinctive forend (compared to the Super Shorty's folding foregrip).

=Launchers=
Launchers are almost always Operator gadgets. Other launchers of note include Capitão's crossbow, Hibana's X-KAIROS, Zofia's KS79 LIFELINE, and Nomad's Airjab Launcher, not listed here for one reason or another.
==Heckler & Koch M320==
The [[Heckler & Koch M320]], indexed as "M120 CREM," is used by the FBI SWAT operative "Ash". It appears stand-alone in the game with a longer barrel and an under-barrel rail with an attached vertical grip instead of the the built-in folding vertical grip. Ingame it fires specialized (and, given the reload animation, seemingly caseless) breaching rounds that drill into destructible surfaces, then explode after a delay in order to ensure maximum penetration. The shell does not explode if it does not hit a breachable surface.

To the relief of some and the disappointment of others, the game's list of "breachable surfaces" does not include enemies; although getting directly struck with the shell deals a moderate amount of damage. While the breaching round itself also has a small blast radius and is not reliable against human targets, getting caught in the explosion of an armed round deals a large amount of damage.

=Grenades & Explosives=
Equipment in this category are all non-exclusive "generic" gadgets available to multiple Operators (alongside things like Barbed Wire and Deployable Shields), though they are still limited to one team.

==C4==
Bundles of C4 charges, somewhat strangely referred to as "Nitro Cells", are available for certain defenders. Unlike other explosives; the C4 sticks to surfaces and is manually detonated with a cellphone.

The weapon is currently the most powerful explosive available, capable of instantly incapacitating or outright killing anyone caught in its 5m blast radius; however, as a heavy explosive, its throwing distance is considerably shorter than that of grenades. It also emits a faint beeping sound once deployed, which can potentially alert attackers to its presence.

==M18 Smoke Grenade==
The [[M18 smoke grenade]] is available to attacking operators.
[[file:M18red.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M18 smoke grenade]]
[[file:RainbowSix Siege m18 smoke.jpg|thumb|600px|none|M18 smoke grenade in game. Apparently, it releases grenade-colored smoke (compare with the above image).]]
[[file:RainbowSix Siege m18 smoke holding.jpg|thumb|600px|none|M18 smoke grenade in game.]]

==M67 Hand Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] is given to some attacking operators.

The weapon explodes after 4 seconds and deals high damage, although since the grenade is primarily focused on scattering shrapnel than an explosion: it does smaller environmental damage than the impact grenade. The grenade can be cooked to reduce the chances of an enemy escaping the blast once thrown, but cooking it for longer than 4 seconds will cause it to detonate; killing the wielder and anyone else unlucky enough to be near them.

[[File:RainbowSix Siege m84 grenade holding 1.jpg‎|thumb|600px|none|M84 Stun Grenade in game.]]

==M18A1 Claymore Mine==
The [[M18A1 Claymore]] was added in the September 13, 2016 patch 4.2 for attacking operators. The weapon is very powerful, capable of incapacitating or outright killing anything infront of it once it goes off.

Unlike traditional claymores, the mine is triggered with three laser beams arranged in a triangular pattern, that extend upto three meters each. If a defender touches any of the lasers: the mine will explode in a 180-degree radius, with a lethal range of upto 5 meters. Although as a balancing measure, both teams can see the claymore's lasers.

[[File:RSS M18A1-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Claymore in-game.]]

==T13 Beano grenade==
The Impact Grenade was added on September 13, 2016, in patch 4.2. It is a modernized depiction of the WWII-era T13 Beano impact grenade. It is exclusive to defenders and deals limited damage in a small radius of 2.5m (infact you'd actually have to throw it directly at someone to get any kind of decent damage). Although, its small explosion radius and damage means its relatively safe to throw around to create large openings in destructible surfaces for other operators to pass through, in comparison to other explosives.

[[Image:FalloutNewVegasUltimateEditionCoverPC.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition'' (2012). The game and all its DLC was released together as the Ultimate Edition in February 2012.]]

'''''Fallout: New Vegas''''' is the fourth installment in the long-running ''Fallout'' series. The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic Nevada, roughly four years after (but not influenced by) the events of the previous title, ''[[Fallout 3]]''. It was developed by Obsidian Entertainment (''[[Alpha Protocol]]'') and published by Bethesda in 2010. The game is available for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. [[Ron Perlman]], [[Danny Trejo]], [[Kris Kristofferson]], and [[Matthew Perry]] can be found among the voice actors of the game.

The game follows the story of Courier 6, who is ambushed while carrying a mysterious package bound for New Vegas at the behest of Mr. House, the reclusive ruler of the city. Shot in the head, Courier 6 survives and soon finds themself wrapped up in the oncoming battle between the New California Republic and a band of slavers from Arizona and Colorado known as Caesar's Legion.

A host of DLC were released for the game, which were then collected into the ''Fallout New Vegas: Ultimate Edition''. The first, "Dead Money", revolves around a long-planned casino heist in the Sierra Madre, a famous casino locked since the Great War. "Honest Hearts" takes place in the post-War Zion National Park and, among other things, adds a new caliber to the game, .45 ACP. "Old World Blues" takes place at the scientific research facility Big Mountain or the Big MT. The final regular DLC, "Lonesome Road", adds backstory for the main character, Courier 6, as well as taking place in the ruins of various military installations in the towns of Hopeville and Ashton. A fifth pack, "Gun Runners' Arsenal", did not add any story content, but instead added a host of weapons to various vendors around the game.

''Fallout: New Vegas'' has a very in-depth ammunition system. The player can reload ammo, and there are many variants of each ammunition type. For a list, see the [[Talk:Fallout: New Vegas|discussion page]].

(*) indicates that the weapon was added in the DLC.

'''The following weapons are seen in the video game ''Fallout: New Vegas'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
As an interesting note for the three "hammered" handguns (the Hi-Power and the two Colts): upon drawing the weapon, they will have an uncocked hammer. The first trigger pull is therefore technically in double-action mode; afterward, each subsequent shot the entire time the handgun is equipped is in single-action. While this is not correct for any of the three single-action handguns, it's still a nice touch.

==Browning Hi-Power==
The [[Browning Hi-Power]] appears as the "9mm Pistol", made by a fictional "M&A Gun Manufacturers" according to the slide legends. It can be modified with a short-range scope and a 20-round magazine. The 9mm is by far one of the most common weapons in the Mojave, and seems to have been adopted by the NCR as their standard sidearm. The 9mm appears almost everywhere and is given to the player by Doc Mitchell at Goodsprings at the game's beginning, unless the player has rolled their character's stats for a combat proficiency other than Guns. The standard Hi-Power is seen in the hands of series mascots Vault Boy and Vault Girl in various perk icons, and is used by Vault Boy on the achievement icon for the quest "You'll Know it When It Happens." It also appears in NCR propaganda posters. The Hi-Power is a very adequate firearm, with mediocre damage that benefits from how common 9mm ammo is, but still leads to it getting replaced quickly for better sidearms.

A unique version called "Maria", decorated with pearl grips (painted with Our Lady of Guadalupe) and nickel-plated with heavy damascene engraving, is carried by Benny (voiced by Matthew Perry), which he uses to execute the player in the opening FMV. The player can later acquire it from him (either by killing him or pickpocketing it from him, the latter allows the player to complete the "Talk About Owned" by killing Benny with Maria). Besides being fashionable, Maria boasts a higher fire rate, damage per shot and accuracy over the normal 9mm pistol at a cost of not allowing mods to be attached.

[[Image:FalloutNV9mmMaria.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The Courier, in an ironic twist of fate, holds Benny's own "Maria" on him while visiting Benny at The Fort.]]

==Ruger Vaquero/Colt Single Action Army==
The ".357 Magnum Revolver" appears to blend elements of the [[Colt Single Action Army]], the [[Ruger Vaquero]], and various other SAA replicas. Like the Vaquero, the cylinder can be moved without the hammer being half-cocked, uses a transfer bar instead of a firing pin, and the cylinder can rotate in either direction. However, it shares similarities with the Colt, such as the three pins on the frame, where the Vaquero only has two, and also lacks a base pin, which is present on both Colts and Rugers but is absent on several replica SAAs. The base gun has a 4.75" barrel, but can be modified with a 7.5" Cavalry barrel that increases the damage by +3, as well as an engraved "heavy duty" cylinder which increases its maximum condition by +50%. The .357 Magnum Revolver is a very common lower tier gun, used by everyone from Powder Gangers to NCR Patrol Rangers.

The .357 is one of the first guns available besides the 9mm Pistol and the Varmint Rifle, and does very reliable damage until heavier armor gets involved.

A unique version called "Lucky" can be found in a safe in the Bison Steve casino in Primm, with a club symbol on ivory grips and an engraved black-and-gold finish. "Lucky" is the fastest-firing revolver in the game. It serves as a high-level eater of .357 Magnum ammo, with its fast ROF and increased damage muted only by its 6-round capacity.

==Smith & Wesson Model 29==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 29]] returns from ''[[Fallout 3]]'', renamed the ".44 Magnum Revolver" as it no longer has a scope by default. The .44 is a relatively common find at higher levels, carried by some Legionaries, Gomorrah lieutenant Cachino, some Fiends, Old Ben in Freeside, and Raul Tejada ([[Danny Trejo]]), former ''vaquero'' and vagrant handyman, carries one as his signature weapon. The .44 Magnum is as powerful as it was in ''Fallout 3'' and can be used more freely now that it lacks the scope. The scope is still available as a modification, plus a "heavy frame" that gives the gun a matte finish and bright S&W rosewood grips.

The unique version of the Model 29 is known as the "Mysterious Magnum" and features a nickel-plated finish with engravings, a mother of pearl grip, and a mysterious tune that plays whenever the pistol is drawn or holstered. The Mysterious Magnum can be obtained by talking to the Lonesome Drifter, who can be found by a Sunset Sarsaparilla billboard near the El Dorado Dry Lake. The Mysterious Magnum has a faster fire rate, better accuracy, and increased critical hit damage. A version of the Mysterious Magnum with extremely buffed damage is also used by the Mysterious Stranger.

=="12.7mm Pistol"==
The "12.7mm Pistol" is a fictious pistol chambered for the also fictious 12.7mm intermediate round (essentially the .50 BMG cartridge with shortened projectile and case length). It is based on the "SIG-Sauer 14mm Pistol" from ''[[Fallout]]'' and ''[[Fallout 2]]'', though the magazine is inserted into the grip instead of being housed in front of the trigger like the original 14mm. Like the original design, it is roughly 50% ultra-chunky [[Hammerli 280]] (now minus the separate magwell) and 50% the [[(Blade Runner) - LAPD 2019 Blaster|"LAPD 2019 Blaster"]] from the movie ''[[Blade Runner]]'', though a gun even closer to the ''Blade Runner'' weapon exists too. It can be modified with a silencer. The 12.7mm Pistol is as rare as its ammo, found in Bloodborne Cave and carried by NCR troops at Hoover Dam as well as NCR Ranger Presidential Guards. While it needs high Strength and Guns skill to use, the 12.7mm's power is one to be reckoned with, piercing flesh and armor alike with ease and making it a solid choice for a high-level sidearm.

A unique variant was added with the Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC, named "Lil' Devil". This unique compact variant has a shorter barrel and synthetic black grips, as well as a dark matte finish. Lil' Devil, besides being an adorable name for a sidearm, is better than the standard 12.7mm in almost every way, from damage to the fact it can be snuck into Strip casinos. The only disadvantage is that it can't be fitted with a silencer.

=="10mm Pistol"==
The "10mm Pistol" returns from ''[[Fallout 3]]''. As in that game, it is loosely based on a [[Desert Eagle|Magnum Research Desert Eagle]]. The 10mm is very common, sold and carried by many merchants, Vault 19 Powder Gangers, and many members of the Kings. Unlike the Browning and two Colt pistols, it seems to operate entirely in double action and can be modified with a laser sight, suppressor, and extended magazine. The 10mm is a rather good weapon, beating out the 9mm in damage and DPS but falling short when the magnum revolvers come into play.

==LAPD 2019 'Blaster'==
The pistol from ''[[Blade Runner]]'' makes a return to the ''Fallout'' series. Called the "That Gun" in-game, in reference to "That Gun from ''Fallout 1'' and ''2''", the .223 Pistol. Like its predecessor, it chambers 5.56x45mm NATO and can also chamber .223, which wears out the gun slower at the cost of less damage. The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds a non-unique variant of this weapon, called the "5.56mm Pistol". "That Gun" can be purchased from Cliff Briscoe in Novac or stolen from the back room. The 5.56mm Pistol is more than just old ''Fallout'' nostalgia, but a rather good weapon. While it has no modifications available unlike most of the handguns, it can chamber the several 5.56mm variants, such as armor-piercing or hollow-point ammo.

The handgun is useable to complete two movie-related challenges (tasks the player can complete to earn XP). "Benefit or a Hazard" refers to the film the gun originated in, ''Blade Runner'', and requires the Courier (fittingly) kill robots with the pistol, while "Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin'" (a reference to Clint Eastwood's line to a bounty hunter in ''[[The Outlaw Josey Wales]]'') requires the Courier kill members of enemy faction hit squads with "Cowboy" themed weapons (which includes all revolvers and lever-action weapons, including the decidedly un-Western 5.56mm).

==Ruger 22/45==
The [[Ruger 22/45]] appears as the "Silenced .22 Pistol". It has an integral sliencer and will not alert enemies (who have not been shot) of the player's presence. It will not dismember on hit and does less damage to limbs. It is also one of the two guns players can always sneak into casinos regardless of their sneak skill, the other being the Police Pistol. The .22 Pistol is very common, being found in Camp McCarran, the Vikki and Vance Casino, as well as being sold by Mr. Holdout on the Strip; one will always be used to kill the White Glove Society member Chauncey during "Beyond the Beef," even if something would physically prevent the bullets from reaching him (such as a party member).

==Colt New Service*==
The [[Colt New Service]] appears in the first ''New Vegas'' DLC, ''Dead Money'', as the "Police Pistol". It uses .357 Magnum rounds. It is fired exclusively in single action, despite the New Service being a double-action revolver. The inclusion of this pistol is a reference to ''[[Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The|The Treasure of the Sierra Madre]]'', which was a major influence for the DLC alongside the Japanese suspense film ''[[Battle Royale]]''. The weapon is extremely useful in "Dead Money" due to its very high critical hit ratio; it is incredibly useful for killing unconscious Ghosts, the zombie-like residents of the Sierra Madre. The Colt New Service can be found at the Sierra Madre in various containers, as well as in Dean Domino's Secret Stashes.
[[Image:DSC2866.jpg‎|thumb|none|350px|Colt New Service - .38 Special]]
[[File:New vegas police pistol.jpg|thumb|none|400px|The model for the "Police Pistol".]]

==Magnum Research BFR==
The [[Magnum Research BFR]] appears as the "Hunting Revolver", chambered in .45-70 Govt'. Unlike the real BFR, which is a single action only revolver that feeds from a loading gate, the Hunting Revolver is a double action revolver that feeds through a swing-out cylinder. It always has an unremovable scope. The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds a variant which can accept modifications; this includes a 6-shot cylinder and a match barrel, decreasing weapon spread. The Hunting Revolver can be found in a variety of places; carried by the mercenary Orris in Freeside, at the campfire in Bloodborne Cave, and tucked away in the REPCONN Test Site. The Hunting Revolver is a solid way to use up .45-70 early in the game, with solid damage and accuracy that is only tempered by the wonky scope view.

The Ranger Sequoia is a unique scopeless version given to NCR Rangers, with a black finish, gold engraving, the NCR bear and Ranger symbol on the wood grip, a brass plate reading "20 Years" on the underside, and "For Honorable Service" and "Against All Tyrants" engraved on the different sides of the barrel. The Ranger Sequoia is much rarer, found on some NCR Veteran Rangers as well as their commander, Chief Hanlon ([[Kris Kristofferson]]); his can be acquired during the quest "Return to Sender," depending on its resolution. The Ranger Sequoia is one of the game's most powerful weapons, being more accurate, firing faster, and having higher damage than the base Hunting Revolver.

==Colt M1911A1*==
The Honest Hearts DLC introduces the [[M1911A1]] as the ".45 Auto Pistol." Joshua Graham describes the gun as "designed by one of my tribe almost four hundred years ago," referring to fellow LDS follower John Moses Browning. The Dead Horses, and most tribes in Zion, make extensive use of it. After beating the main questline of Honest Hearts, .45 Auto ammunition, and the weapons which fire it, are carried by the Gun Runners outside New Vegas; the weapons themselves are never used by NPCs outside the Park, however. The .45 Auto Pistol can take two upgrades: the HD Slide improves the weapon's durability, while the suppressor eliminates the gun's report. After these upgrades, the pistol resembles a [[Colt XSE]]. At one point, the in-game iron sights were going to be an upgrade, with the gun having default, more traditional M1911 sights; this ended up being cut, and these sights are permanent on the default weapon in the final game. It correctly holds 7 rounds. The M1911A1 is a powerful weapon, with damage output on par with the 12.7mm Pistol and (illogically) vastly outperforming the 10mm pistol. It is the most powerful holdout weapon compatible with a suppressor, but ammo is hard to come by outside of Zion, as .45 ACP can only be obtained by purchasing it from certain merchants or reloading.

==Colt New Agent*==
Joshua Graham from the "Honest Hearts" DLC carries a unique .45 Auto pistol, a [[M1911|Colt New Agent]] with a snakeskin-pattern grip and Greek script engraved into the slide. The script (καὶ τὸ φῶς ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ φαίνει on the right side and και η σκοτια αυτο ου κατελαβεν on the left side) is a quote from the Bible (John 1:5) ''"And the light shineth in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not"'', from which the weapon's name, "A Light Shining in Darkness", is derived. In keeping with this name, the slide glows in the dark, making it easier to use in poorly lit caves and ruins. It holds 6 rounds of .45 Auto in its magazine. Despite the decreased ammo capacity, in every other way A Light Shining In Darkness is superior to the base .45 Auto, having higher damage, reduced weight, a faster rate of fire, and increased crit chance and damage.

==Brescia Model 00*==
The "Lonesome Road" DLC adds a modified Brescia Model 00, appearing simply as the "Flare Gun". Many Marked Men have it (and, in some cases, are scripted to fire it into the air, presumably signaling for help), and some emergency kits do as well. As an in-game weapon, it cannot be used for any sort of signaling, but can be used to do damage to (and ignite) enemies from a distance- provided, that is, that the player can compensate for the arc-type trajectory of the flares. However, its main advantage is its ability to frighten away abominations - even the mighty Deathclaw is terrified by flares. Bizarrely, while the animations suggest that the weapon fires ordinary flares, it actually consumes 10 units of flamethrower fuel per shot. Even more bizarrely, the flare gun is also an improved holdout weapon, perfect for dealing with the ever present danger of Deathclaw attacks on the Strip.

==Ruger GP100==
While not usable in-game, a [[Ruger GP100]] appears on the cover of the "Guns and Bullets" skill book, which permanently raises the user's Guns skill by 3 points.

==Shansi Type 17==
Similarly, while the [[Mauser C96#Shansi Type 17|Shansi Type 17]] can't be used in-game, it still makes an appearance, being one of the unusable weapons in Mick's weapon stash in the back of Mick & Ralph's. It is exactly the same model as the one used in ''[[Fallout 3]]''.
[[Image:C96-10.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Shansi Type 17 - .45 ACP]]

=Submachine Guns=
=="10mm Submachine Gun"==
The "10mm Submachine Gun" returns from ''[[Fallout 3]]'', again bearing a distinct resemblance to the [[MP5#Heckler & Koch SMG|Prototype]] from the defunct H&K SMG program, though the pistol grip and trigger guard are reminiscent of that of the [[Thompson]] line of submachine guns. It can be found on many mid-level humanoid mobs such as Jackal gang members and members of the Kings. It can also be found as level-adjusted loot in gun lockers once the player reaches a high enough level.

Although the in-game description for the 10mm SMG lists a high DPS, it shares the common weakness of most shotguns and automatic weapons in ''Fallout: New Vegas'' in that much of its theoretical power is negated by the new Damage Threshold system. In addition to losing much of its damage, the high spread of this weapon requires the player to be at close ranges for all of the rounds fired to impact on the target. Despite this, if the player does manage to get into close range via stealth or ambushing it can be a powerful weapon against unarmored enemies.

It can be modified with a 40-round magazine and a recoil compensator.

The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds a unique variant known as "Sleepytyme", which has an integral suppressor, greater damage, and a higher rate of fire. It is also a holdout weapon that can be carried into casinos and is the ''only'' automatic holdout weapon available. .

[[Image:FalloutNVSleepytyme.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Out on the streets, the Courier holds "Sleepytyme".]]

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
An [[M3 Grease Gun]] chambered for 9mm rounds appears as the "9mm submachine gun". It is scaled down so it can be held one-handed. It can be modified with drum magazines that increase ammo capacity by 30 rounds and a "light bolt" that increases the rate of fire. The 9mm SMG is fairly common, with the player being able to acquire one right at the start of the game with a high enough Repair skill. Its standard 30-round magazine and easy-to-find 9mm ammo make it one of the better starter weapons, but it loses its effectiveness once armor gets involved.

The unique variant, "Vance's 9mm submachine gun", can be acquired by completing an unmarked quest to track it down after it was stolen from a casino dedicated to fictious criminals Vikki & Vance, the latter of which owned the gun. Vikki & Vance are stated to have been contemporaries of Bonnie & Clyde, making their use of an M3 anachronistic by about ten years. "Vance's 9mm submachine gun" comes with a pristine black finish, wood or bakelite grips, no stock, and express-type sights. While like all unique variants it cannot be modified, it comes with 60-round magazines and a rate of fire inbetween the default 9mm SMG and it with the light bolt modification, in addition to the usual unique variant upgrades. It is one of the few reasons to keep 9mm ammo by the late game, the sheer volume of fire it can deliver will bring down most enemies.

The Lonesome Road DLC adds the "H&H Tools nail gun" as a weapon. The nail gun bears a striking resemblance to the M3, featuring a very similar profile and layout, even having the M3's crank lever and replacing the M3's ejection port with a safety switch. The Nail Gun is an amusing and powerful weapon in the right hands, doing double damage to limbs if the player can keep nails stockpiled.

==American-180==
The [[American-180]] appears in-game as the "Silenced .22 SMG". It lacks a stock and is integrally suppressed. It can be upgraded with a larger drum magazine that increases capacity by 60 rounds. It can be found on Gomorrah Bank Guards and Fiend raiders in Vault 3. Its high rate of fire and rather large magazine capacity make the gun somewhat useful against lightly armored foes, but the overall weakness of .22 render it useless when even slightly heavy armor gets into the fray.

==Thompson Sub-Machine Guns==
Two variants of the Thompson SMG series appear in game, one as an energy weapon, the other as a conventional slug-thrower.

===M1928 Thompson===
An [[M1928 Thompson]]-inspired energy weapon appears as the "Laser RCW" (Rapid Capacitor Weapon, according to the game's director Josh Sawyer). It holds 60 Electron Charge Packs in a drum and can be modified with a Recycler attachment, which replenishes 1 shot per 4 fired. In addition, on the rear portion of the receiver, it has a rail-top carry handle based on the H&K [[G36C]]'s. The RCW is a fairly common energy weapon, used by Fiends, Brotherhood of Steel scribes, and members of the Bright Brotherhood. The RCW is a rather decent energy weapon, beating out the pistol-based weapons but falling short in the long run due to its overall low damage.

===Thompson M1A1*===
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears as the ".45 Auto Submachine Gun", introduced in the "Honest Hearts" DLC. It can be modified with a Cutts compensator to reduce spread, as well as M1921/M1928 50-round drum magazines which somehow work with the M1A1's magazine well. The weapon is used heavily by the White Legs tribe, who call them "storm drums," and is stocked by a variety of traders in the Mojave following the completion of the DLC's campaign. The .45 Auto SMG is a powerful SMG on par with the 12.7mm SMG, with a high rate of fire combined with powerful rounds, tempered by rather poor accuracy.

=="12.7mm Submachine Gun"==
The heavy-hitter of the submachine gun category, the "12.7mm submachine gun", while largely fictional, has some distinct features from some real-world weapons, using a top-mounted 21-round magazine that lies flat along the top of the weapon, rather like that of an [[FN P90]] (interestingly, the rear sight is mounted to this magazine, rather like the [[Calico]] series), and what appears to be a [[TDI Vector]]-style offset recoil system (which, given the caliber, would probably be necessary). It can be found on the Legion's Veteran Decanii, and other high-ranking officials, as well as some of their assassins and vexillarius at higher levels, high-level White Legs in "Honest Hearts", and both high-level marked men and Ulysses in "Lonesome Road"; one can also be found in Bloodborne Cave, and can be bought from some weapon merchants and the Great Khans at higher levels, as well as the Vendortron, and occasionally Knight Torres.

The Gun Runner's Arsenal DLC adds a version that can be customized further than the one in the base game - while the standard version can accept a suppressor (which, like the [[PGM Hecate II]]'s suppressor, reduces enemies' ability to hear the weapon, rather than eliminating it), the GRA version can also be fitted with a laser sight (which increases accuracy), and a "Stacked Magazine", which raises the capacity from 21 rounds to 27). The 12.7mm SMG is the best submachine gun in the game, due to the extremely powerful 12.7mm round. It shreds through light, medium and heavy armor and can take down high-end enemies like Rangers, Deathclaws and Paladins within a few mags. However, the scarcity of the ammo plus the relatively small magazine somewhat limits the 12.7mm SMG's power.

=Rifles=
==Colt Model 733==
The [[M16#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733|Colt Model 733]] appears as the "Assault Carbine". It is chambered for 5mm rounds and is the fastest firing rifle in the base game, tied with the LMG. It has a 24-round magazine by default, but can be upgraded with a 30-round magazine. The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds a variant of the Assault Carbine with additional modifications; a "forged receiver" which increases the weapon's durability. and a "light bolt" which increases rate of fire. It, along with the Marksman Carbine and the Service Rifle, lacks a charging handle on the rear, instead having a knob located directly on the bolt on the right side. The Assault Carbine can be found in many former military installations in the Mojave such as Vault 34 as well as the Nellis Air Force Base. Companion Lily Bowen's personal Assault Carbine is fitted with a suppressor, which is not available as a mod for either of the two playable Assault Carbine variants. The Assault Carbine is a good armor breaker, allowing a more controlled use of 5mm's useful AP punch at a cost of somewhat small magazine capacity.

==Colt Model 933==
A [[M16 rifle series#Colt Model 933|Colt Model 933]] with a SIR railed foregrip, a Magpul PRS stock, and a low-power ACOG-style scope appears as the "Marksman Carbine". The Marksmen Carbine is a common weapon, and most military facilities contain a couple. The Marksman Carbine is a powerful weapon in the right hands, allowing for accurate and repeat hits on targets, but is brought down by 5.56's mediocre damage on heavier targets.

The "All-American", the unique variant of the Marksman Carbine, is found only in the armory at the bottom of the irradiated, ghoul-infested Vault 34 located east of New Vegas. It has a woodland camo finish, a 24-round magazine (which is visually identical to the 20-round magazine on the base carbine), and an 82nd Airborne division badge on the magazine well. The All-American is one of New Vegas's best scoped weapons, dealing accurate, high-damage shots without eating through rare ammunition. This damage can be further enhanced with the "Hand Loader" perk added with the "Gun Runner's Arsenal" DLC, which enables the creation of match 5.56 ammo that increases damage and accuracy with no downside.

==Colt M16A1==
An [[M16A1]] with wood furniture (''Fallout'''s world ran out of oil long ago) appears as the "Service Rifle". It is chambered for 5.56x45mm NATO and is semi-auto only. The upper receiver has a forward assist and a case deflector. Like all of the other M16 derivatives in the game, the Service Rifle's charging handle is located on the right side of the receiver, attached directly to the bolt in the ejector port. While rarely seen due to the weapon's high durability and common replacement parts, the jam animation involves one of the few instances of the forward assist actually being used in fiction. It can be modified with a "forged receiver" that increases its durability and "upgraded springs" that increase its fire rate. An aperture sight and bayonet are included in the files, but were not implemented. As the name suggests, the Service Rifle is standard issue to the NCR Military and can be found wherever NCR Army troops are or were stationed. A terrifically average rifle, the Service Rifle is a direct upgrade to the Varmint Rifle in the 5.56mm rifle category, having superior stats in almost every respect, and remains useful until the player acquires better weapons.

A unique Service Rifle chambered in 12.7mm called the "Survivalist's Rifle" appears in the "Honest Hearts" DLC. It was the weapon of a US Army serviceman who fled to Zion Canyon after the Great War. It features a blocky heat shield somewhat reminiscent of the M16 LSW/LMG, but has numerous makeshift repairs along the body work and a damaged front sight. The words ''Stop'' and ''Arrêt!'' are scrawled onto the stock of the weapon, a stamp on the receiver reads "PROPERTY OF U.S. GOVT CHKPNT CARBINE 12.7MM CAL", and a stamp above the trigger reads "LONG BRANCH ARSENAL ONTARIO, USA TERRITORY". The Survivalist's Rifle can be found on top of the Red Gate, next to the remains of the Survivalist himself. The Survivalist's Rifle lives up to its name. The accuracy of the standard Service Rifle combined with the power of the 12.7mm round are a lethal combination for any target, only capped by the damaged front sight hindering aiming.

==PGM 'Hecate II'==
The [[PGM sniper rifle series#PGM Hecate II|PGM 'Hecate II']] appears as the "Anti-Materiel Rifle". It is the first gun seen in the game; one is used during the opening FMV by an NCR Ranger to kill a Fiend countersniper. The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds a variant that can be modified with a "carbon fibre body" which decreases weight, a "custom bolt" that increases rate of fire, and a suppressor which doesn't actually suppress gun noise but merely lowers and muffles the gun's extremely loud report to a more comfortable level. The Hecate appears very late in the game, sold by the Gun Runners or Knight Torres of the Brotherhood of Steel and only seen on Veteran Rangers, a few Legion troops and various DLC enemies. The Hecate is a weapon intended for long-range shooting, easily able to pick through highly armored enemies including deathclaws, but has a slow fire rate, fires rare .50 BMG rounds, and requires a Strength of 8 and a Guns skill of 100 to even shoot it properly.

[[Image:Fnvgra-amrifleallupgrades.jpg|thumb|none|550px|The GRA variant with all modifications.]]

=="Varmint Rifle"==
The "Varmint Rifle" is a fictious bolt-action rifle with a 5-round detachable magazine. Originally, it was intended to use .22LR rounds, but this proved unpopular during play testing and was changed to 5.56mm rounds. The weapon model however was not changed, and some NPCs using the rifle still carry .22LR rounds instead of 5.56mm. It can be upgraded with 8-round extended magazines, a night vision scope and a silencer. It is one of the first weapons available, as a free one is received from Sunny Smiles during the "Back in the Saddle" quest. It is a good starter rifle, boasting decent DPS and accuracy, but after armor is introduced, it becomes quickly obsolete. The combination of a scope and silencer remains unique for quite some time however.

The unique variant is called the "Ratslayer", which can be found in Broc Flower Cave. It has a black polymer stock featuring a stylized mole rat skull and 69 tally marks on the rear right. It has increased scope zoom, a faster fire rate, and increased damage compared to the base Varmint Rifle, along with having all the Varmint Rifle's modifications equipped.

==M1 Garand==
An [[M1 Garand]] rechambered for .308 rounds was supposed to appear in Fallout: New Vegas as the "Battle Rifle", but was cut from the final game. The unique variant of the Battle Rifle, however, was not cut and appears in the base game. Named "This Machine" (a reference to Woodie Guthrie's famous guitar sticker, which read "This Machine Kills Fascists"; seemingly as a response, the in-game weapon's stock is marked "Well This Machine Kills Commies"), it can be acquired by completing the unmarked quest "Dealing with Contreras". With a high rate of fire and a powerful cartridge, This Machine is a useful mid range weapon, but suffers from high spread at long range.

The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC added the base Battle Rifle back into the game. The Battle Rifle can only be obtained from traders, and is overall weaker than This Machine.

Both This Machine and the Battle Rifle weigh the correct 9.5 pounds for an M1 Garand.

==Winchester 1886==
The [[Winchester 1886]] appears as the "Cowboy Repeater". It is chambered for .357 Magnum. It can be upgraded with an extended magazine tube that increases its capacity from 7 rounds to 11, a maple stock to reduce weight, and a "custom action" that engraves the receiver and increases rate of fire. The Cowboy Repeater is an early choice for replacing the Varmint Rifle, with higher damage and a faster rate of fire that remains useful until enemies wearing armor show up.

The unique variant is named "La Longue Carabine" (a reference to ''[[The Last of the Mohicans]]'') fitted with a scope, the extended magazine tube available for the base rifle, an engraved stock, and an octagon barrel. It also lacks a loading gate, and as such recycles [[Fallout 3]]'s reloading animations for the [[Henry 1860]], opening the muzzle-end of the magazine tube and then inserting rounds in. It is found on Corporal Sterling of the 1st Reconnaissance Battalion at Camp McCarran. Its accuracy and DPS make it a good weapon, but the weakness of .357 Magnum make it useful only on lightly armored opponents.

==Marlin Model 336==
The [[Marlin Model 336]] appears as the "Trail Carbine", and fires .44 Magnum. It can be found in places such as Bonnie Springs or Red Rock Canyon. It can be modified with a scope. The Trail Carbine is mostly a straight upgrade over the Cowboy Repeater, boasting a damage boost plus the ability to use a scope, but uses rarer ammunition and lacks the upgrades of the Cowboy Repeater.

=="Hunting Rifle"==
The [[Winchester Model 70]]-inspired "Hunting Rifle" returns from [[Fallout 3]]. Like its counterpart in Fallout 3, it is a bolt-action rifle feeding from a five-round detachable magazine, but now has proper iron sights and chambers .308 Winchester. It can be modified with 10-round magazines, a "custom action" that cleans the bolt and reciever, as well as increasing rate of fire, and a 3.5x scope for long-range shooting. The Hunting Rifle is one of the higher-level rifles, serving as a sniping tool between varmint and sniper rifles. It's precise, reliable and good at dealing with anything short of a BoS Paladin or a Deathclaw. The rifle is fairly common in the hands of some NCR soldiers, Fiends, Legionaries, and other Wastelanders; a Fiend during the opening cutscene makes the incredibly poor choice of using one in an attempt to counter-snipe an NCR Ranger, which ends rather predictably. Companion Craig Boone uses a scoped version, the only Companion weapon to have a modification installed.

The Gun Runners' Arsenal DLC adds the "Paciencia" (Spanish for Patience) unique variant. It is cleaner than the regular rifle and lacks the makeshift repairs done to that version, as well as having a Mexican flag wrapped around the stock and a gold bead sight. Panciencia has extra damage and reliability, but only has a three-round magazine (identical to the regular rifle's 5-round magazine). It also boasts a 3.5x zoom, despite only having iron sights.

=="Brush Gun"==
The "Brush Gun" is a lever-action rifle firing .45-70 Gov't rounds out of a six-round tube magazine. According to Josh Sawyer, the game's lead designer, it "is not based on one gun specifically, but guns like the [[Winchester Model 1886]] and Marlin Guide Gun", alhough it appears to also be based on the [[Marlin Model 1895]]. The "forged receiver", the Brush Gun's only modification, resembles the receiver of a Model 1886, as well as increasing the weapon's durability. It is a rare weapon, primarily used by NCR Veteran Rangers and Legion assassins. The Brush Gun is one of the best rifles in the game, hampered only by its use of rare .45-70 Gov't ammunition.

The Gun Runner's Arsenal DLC adds a unique variant known as the "Medicine Stick" (presumably a reference to Theodore Roosevelt's [[Winchester Model 1895]] in .405 Winchester, which he called his "Big Medicine"). It features a much less intrusive ghost ring sight, a stainless steel or nickel finish on the reciever, and what appears to be a medicine wheel on its stock. The Brush Gun is better in every way than the Brush Gun, albeit much less dramatically than other unique variants.

=="Gauss Rifle"==
The fictional "Gauss Rifle" returns from ''Fallout 3''. While fictional, the Gauss Rifle is rather clearly inspired by the [[Lahti L-39]] anti-tank rifle, particularly in the receiver area; it even retains the L-39's crank-type cocking handle (which is never used). The weapon uses microfusion cells, of which it holds 5, and consumes 5 per shot, essentially making it a single-shot rifle. Bizarrely, while the weapon still does behave as a coilgun logically should, propelling ferromagnetic projectiles with electromagnetism, these projectiles (presumably contained in the weapon's side-mounted box magazine) are never replenished, and never run out. It is found on BoS Paladins, Y-17 Trauma Override Harnesses in Old World Blues, and Father Elijah in Dead Money, and can be bought from Knight Torres (provided the appropriate quests have been completed) and the Silver Rush. The Gauss Rifle is the sniper rifle option for characters using energy weapons, with very high damage that will cause hilarious overkill on anything short of Deathclaws, though this damage can only be dealt slowly.

The unique variant of the Gauss Rifle, the "YCS/186" (a reference to Your Console Sucks, a Something Awful forum with the ID of 186) is found on a mercenary in a camp east of Brooks Tumbleweed Ranch (unless the trait Wild Wasteland is selected, where it is replaced with aliens and unavailable in normal gameplay). The YCS/186 uses less ammunition per shot, does more damage, and is slightly more accurate than the Gauss Rifle, but is one pound heavier.

==Heckler & Koch G3==
An early-pattern [[Heckler & Koch G3|G3]] (or, more precisely, the R91 Assault Rifle from ''[[Fallout 3]]''), while not a playable weapon in-game, appears on the "Commando" perk icon, as well as the "Aggressive" Companion wheel setting.

Additionally, the ''Fallout 3'' "Infiltrator" (a variant of the G3 with a longer magazine, no stock, a black synthetic forearm, and a suppressor) is visible in Mick's special weapon stash, but is also unusable.

==Unknown Rifle==
A poster for Freddy Fear's House of Scares (seen in ''[[Fallout 3]]'') can be found in the El Rey Motel, and another can be found in a collapsed office building in the "Lonesome Road" DLC. This poster depicts several children dressed in the company's costumes, one of whom wields an unknown rifle; given how this costume is meant to be a Chinese soldier, it is reasonable to assume that it is supposed to be a [[Norinco Type 56]].

=="Sniper Rifle"==
The fictious "Sniper Rifle" from ''[[Fallout 3]]'' (based on the also ficitious "DKS-501 Sniper Rifle" from Fallout 1 and 2) returns. It is a semi-automatic rifle with a 3.5x scope and a five-round detachale magazine holding .308 rounds. As the name implies, the Sniper Rifle is one of the best long-range weapons in the game, suffering only from a slow fire rate and low durability. It is rather rare, only being purchasable from a handful of merchants, or found in some rather out-of-the-way locations. It has two available modifications - a suppressor to reduce the weapon's report, and "carbon fiber parts", which impressively lower its weight from 8 pounds to 3.

There is one unique variant of the Sniper Rifle in the base game, the Gobi Campaign Scout Rifle, which is found in a locked gun case in the Sniper's Nest near Cottonwood Cove. It has an extended magazine, a more solid thumbhole stock (rather than the odd partially-completed skeletal thumbhole stock of the standard variant), a slightly shortened barrel (in spite of the noticeably better accuracy), and a desert camouflage paint scheme. Gameplay-wise, it has a lower weight (4.5 pounds), an extended magazine holding 6 rounds, slightly higher damage, a lower AP cost in VATS, a higher fire rate, better durability, better critical damage, and better accurate, with the only downside being the inability to accept mods. According to the game's lore, it was originally issued to the U.S. Armed Forces in the Gobi Desert campaign in China prior to the 2077 nuclear war (although how it then managed to wind up in a sniper's nest in the Mojave isn't particularly clear).

The "Old World Blues" DLC added a second unique variant, "Christine's CoS Silencer Rifle". It is found in a decrepit building to the north of Little Yangtze. It has the highest damage of the 3 variants (not to mention the highest damage of any suppressed weapon, and the highest non-crit damage of anything chambering .308), a weight of 5.5 pounds, slightly better durability (though not as good as that of the Gobi rifle), and a critical chance multiplier of 2.5 (compared to the 2 of the standard and Gobi variants), at the cost of a higher AP cost in VATS, and the inability to accept mods (although it already has a suppressor and is only 2.5 pounds heavier than the Sniper Rifle with carbon fiber parts). The weapon was originally owned by Christine Royce of the Circle of Steel (hence the name), a sub-group within the Brotherhood of Steel, and was later left behind while she hunted for Elijah.

==M1903 Springfield==
While it is quite hard to spot, the model of the BB Gun's loader has a logo that features an [[M1903 Springfield]]. The weapon does not make any sort of physical appearance in-game.
[[File:M1903Mark1.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mark 1 M1903 Springfield - .30-06]]

=Machine Guns=
==FN Minimi==
The [[FN Minimi]] appears as the "Light Machine Gun". Compared to the real FN Minimi, the LMG has a shortened stock and barrel, a wooden carry handle and pistol grip, a differently designed front sight post, a wooden handguard seemingly inspired by the [[M60]], and a detachable 90-round magazine as opposed to a belt box. The last can be modified with the "expanded drums" upgrade to hold 200 rounds. It can be found on a few high-level enemies, in the back of the Deathclaw-infested Quarry Junction, or purchased at a high enough level. The Light Machine Gun is a powerful weapon for players with a large supply of 5.56mm rounds, giving them a large magazine and a controllable rate of fire to allow them to fulfill their fantasies of being Post-Apocalyptic Rambo.

The "Gun Runners' Arsenal" DLC adds the fictious seemingly [[Barrett M82A1]]-inspired "Bozar", which previously appeared in ''Fallout 2'', though it lacks that version's bizarre 15-round burst. While ostensibly the unique variant of the Light Machine Gun, in practice the Bozar has nothing to do with the LMG outside of reusing its animations, having a completely different design. The Bozar essentially acts as a fully-automatic long-range rifle, with a 2.43x scope and 30-round magazines.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle*==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] was added in "Dead Money", the first DLC for New Vegas, as the "Automatic Rifle". It has a pistol grip and stock that resemble those on the Colt Monitor and European copies. It can be modified with "upgraded internals" that increase its rate of fire by 10%. Interestingly, the menu icon for the BAR shows the bipod unfolded, whereas it is folded and unusable in the game itself. It is hidden in a number of locations around the Sierra Madre. Rather bizarrely, it is the least accurate automatic weapon in the game, even worse than the SMGs. This problem is compounded by its small magazines, low fire rate (even when upgraded), high weight (even beating out the LMG), and poor durability. Its only redeeming quality is its damage - the highest of any automatic weapon.

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870 Wingmaster==
The [[Remington 870|Remington 870 Wingmaster]] (with the magazine tube cap of a Winchester) appears as the "Hunting Shotgun". It can be upgraded with a choke to reduce spread and a "long tube" to increase ammunition capacity from 5 rounds to 8. The Hunting Shotgun is the most accurate non-unique 12 gauge shotgun in the game, allowing for greater accuracy and precision at the cost of a lower fire rate and magazine capacity compared to the Riot Shotgun, making it ideal for Magnum and Slug shells.

The unique version, "Dinner Bell", has synthetic camo furniture and is the most accurate shotgun in the game. Dinner Bell is a reward for the quest "Bleed Me Dry," given by Red Lucy, who runs The Thorn. Dinner Bell serves as the game's most accurate shotgun, and is useful for hitting angry raiders with Slug shells at ranges past any other shotguns.

==Over-and-Under Shotgun==
A 20-Gauge double-barrel shotgun called the "Caravan Shotgun" appears in game. The gun itself appears to be an 'over-and-under' style; visually, it bears resemblance to a Winchester Model 101 and Otto Seelig brand Over/Unders. The "Caravan Shotgun" is commonly found on, fittingly, Crimson Caravan guards. The Caravan Shotgun is a decent weapon, being an almost direct upgrade over the Single Shotgun but kept back by the weak 20 gauge chambering.

Players who pre-ordered the 'Caravan Pack' version of New Vegas (or purchased the "Couriers' Stash" DLC) acquired a "Sturdy Caravan Shotgun" at the start of the game. There is little difference visually aside from colors; gameplay-wise it has increased damage and durability at the cost of accuracy.

=="Riot Shotgun"==
The "Riot Shotgun" is a fictious semi-automatic shotgun (bearing some very loose similarites to the [[Hawk shotgun series#Hawk Semi-Auto|Hawk Semi-Auto Shotgun]]) chambered for 12 gauge rounds fed from a 12-round drum magazine. It is a rare find in the Mojave, usually being found on specific troops at Hoover Dam, or on Gomorrah Bank Guards. The Riot Shotgun is far and away the fastest-firing shotgun in the game, but is one of the heaviest and least accurate shotguns in the game, along with requiring a hefty surplus of 12 gauge to be kept fed.

==Winchester 1887==
A sawn-off [[Winchester Model 1887|Winchester 1887]] appears as the "Lever-action Shotgun". Unlike the real weapon, it is chambered for 20 gauge shells. It is not the most common weapon in the game, being found on a few characters and purchasable from the Gun Runners. It is generally the best 20 gauge shotgun, with the highest rate of fire and magazine capacity, but anything above light armor will make it useless quickly.

==New England Pardner==
The [[New England Firearms Pardner]] appears in the game as the "Single Shotgun". The Single Shotgun is used by members of the Powder Gangers and lower level enemies. One such shotgun can be found in one of the houses in Goodsprings. The Single Shotgun is a good starter shotgun, with very good accuracy at a cost of its lack of real damage to anything wearing armor, but is outclassed by any other shotgun in almost every other respect (though it does have the highest raw damage output of any 20 gauge shotgun).

Occasionally, the Courier will encounter Single Shotguns rigged up as tripwire-based traps, commonly set at doorways, replacing the fictional "Combat Shotgun" from ''Fallout 3''. Bizarrely, when a rigged shotgun is disarmed, it will remove the shotgun from the trap (unlike other traps, this can be done even after the trap has been activated- provided, that is, that the player character has a Repair skill of at least 45), and will grant the Courier a 20 gauge shell; it will not, however, give them the shotgun itself, despite removing it from the trap, which begs the question of where it actually goes when this happens.

Note the presence of what appears to be some sort of electrically-powered mechanism at the rear of the trap, despite the lack of any obvious need for one. The weapon also seems to be held in place with aluminum foil.]]

==Sawn-Off Side-By-Side Shotgun==
The [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Short barreled Side by Side Shotgun (Sawed Off)|sawn-off side-by-side shotgun]] from ''Fallout 3'' returns, again as the "Sawed-off shotgun". It has mostly the same model as that game, but has a completely different texture (with an overall cleaner look, different screw placement, and a large grip with a different texture) and only has one trigger, which somehow fires both barrels at the same time. As it is also held one-handed, this would likely be extremely painful for the user. This does mean it is effectively a single-shot weapon gameplay-wise, but the large amount of pellets fired and its 12 gauge chambering mean that it is the highest-damage shotgun (and the second highest damage of any weapon) in the game. As expected of a sawn-off shotgun the spread is extreme, and it is also the least durable shotgun. Rounding out this odd package, it can be brought into weapon-free areas if the player character has a Sneak skill of 50 or above. The Sawed-off is quite common in the Mojave, being carried by Ralph of Mick and Ralph's, some Fiends, Jessup, Button Man, and bartenders at The Tops and Gomorrah, and being purchasable from Mick of Mick and Ralph's, and the Vendortron. Notably, they can also be obtained from Heck Gunderson during "Beyond the Beef", if the player chooses to tell him where his son is, and from Cachino during "How Little We Know" (along with 30 12 gauge Magnum shells) if the player chooses to help him deal with Big Sal and Nero.

A unique variant with a darker, more worn look called the "Big Boomer" is carried by Old Lady Gibson, and can only be acquired by either stealing it from or killing her. Compared to the standard sawed-off, it is nearly a direct upgrade, with higher damage, a tighter spread, higher rate of fire, and a lower AP cost in VATS, with the only downside being the inability to carry it into weapons-free areas (regardless of the player's Sneak skill).

=Launchers=
==M79 Grenade Launcher==
The [[M79 Grenade Launcher]] appears as the "Grenade Rifle". It can be found in several locations and is sold by many different vendors. It is the first launcher available, but is inferior in almost every way to the other launchers available later. It can be upgraded with a "long barrel" to increase grenade velocity and range.

The M79 has the distinction of having the highest number of unique variants of any weapon in the game. The first is "Thump-Thump" found in the Nellis Array. It comes with the long barrel modification built-in and has a lighter-colored stock with a drawing of an angry beaver holding a rifle on it. In addition to having the effects of the long barrel modification built-in, Thump-Thump also fires faster, is more durable, and weighs slightly less.

If the player preordered a version of the game that came with the "Mercenary Pack" or bought the "Couriers' Stash" DLC, they acquire the "Mercenary Grenade Rifle" at the start of the game. It is almost identical to the base Grenade Rifle, only with a slightly darker color, slightly less weight, and not requiring skill in Explosives to use.

The ''Lonesome Road'' DLC adds the "Red Victory grenade rifle", with a stock painted to resemble the Chinese flag, and the "Great Bear grenade rifle", which has a blue grip and forend and a white Army star on the grip. The Red Victory can only be acquired if the player chooses to nuke the Legion at the end of the DLC, and the Great Bear only if the player chooses to nuke the NCR. The Red Victory is faster firing, weighs less, and is more durable compared to the base Grenade Rifle. The Great Bear is slightly heavier than the Red Victory (but still lighter than the base Grenade Rifle), but is much more durable and does more damage than the base Grenade Rifle.

==China Lake Launcher==
The [[China Lake Launcher]] appears as the "Grenade Launcher". Unlike the real weapon, it has a 4-round tube magazine (as opposed to the real China Lake's 3-round tube magazine) and a much lower stock. Most Boomers carry it, and it can also be found in a few locations or purchased from several traders. While it intially appears to be an upgrade in every way over the Grenade Rifle, the Grenade Launcher is a fiddly beast with a less consistent damage output than the Grenade Rifle, due to the longer reloads.

A modified version named the "Holorifle" appears in the "Dead Money" DLC, with a futuristic short-range scope and various electronic pieces to convert the weapon to a microfusion cell-based energy weapon, firing some kind of odd hard light projectiles, and loading microfusion cells into the tube magazine and ejecting them after firing. It is given to the player once they arrive at the Sierra Madre. The Holorifle is decent against the enemies that stalk the Madre, though microfusion cells are hard to find there.

[[File:FNV Holorifle Side.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The right side of the Holorifle, as seen shortly after firing.]]

=="Grenade Machinegun"==
The "Grenade Machinegun" is a fictious large fully-auutomatic grenade launcer firing 25mm grenades. It is comparable to the game's miniguns and flamethrowers in size and layout, also having an ammo storage carreid on the user's back. The gun carries a large amount of electronics, complete with a monitor at the top that displays Bash script; as the "high-speed kit" modification which improves the rate of fire changes the colors of the electronics on the side, they appear to assist in feeding the weapon. The large muzzle brake, drum magazine, side-mounted handle and use of small-caliber grenades bears some resemblance to the [[Norinco QL-series grenade launchers#QLZ-87|Norinco QLZ-87]] automatic grenade launcher, though unlike the QL, the barrel is reciprocating, implying recoil operation instead of the gas operation of the QLZ. Instead of the drum being replaced when reloading, the side of the drum opens up and the Courier inserts in a disc-shaped rack of grenades, which is presumably kept in the ammo storage on their back. The Grenade Machinegun is a fairly powerful weapon, boasting some very good damage that is doubled by its controllable rate of fire, but is limited by how rare 25mm is in the wasteland.

Mercy fires the larger 40mm grenades, similar to the [[Mk 19 grenade launcher]], giving it even more destructive potential with the cost of less ammo per magazine, and in Hardcore mode the ammo is quite heavy.

The unique variant, "Mercy", can be found in Dead Wind Cavern. Mercy fires larger 40mm grenades, giving it increased damage at the cost of ammo capacity. Apparently a relic from before the nukes fell, it has "Hei Gui Bye Bye" spraypainted on it's body (Hei Gui is the name of a group of Chinese commandos in the game) and is in an extremely rusty state, though it still has two-and-a-half times the durability of a standard grenade machinegun.

=="25mm Grenade APW"*==
The "Gun Runner's Arsenal" DLC adds the "25mm Grenade APW" ("Anti-Personnel Weapon"), a fictious semi-automatic grenade launcher firing 25mm grenades from a six-round detachable box magazine. It serves as an interesting midway in the Explosives category, doing slightly less damage than the 40mm launchers and not providing as much overall firepower as the Grenade Machinegun, but is lighter and more portable than either, while still retaining great lethality. Being a GRA weapon, it is only available from traders, being sold by the Gun Runners, the Boomers, and the 188 Trading Post, among others.

The APW has three available modifications: "Upgraded Internals" which increases fire rate by 25%; a longer barrel, which doubles projectile velocity and range; and an "expanded drum", which increases ammunition capacity by 2 despite not being a drum magazine.

While fictional, the 25mm Grenade APW bears a very loose resemblance to some semi-auto shotguns, like the [[Remington 1100]].

=Grenades=
==M84 Stun Grenade*==
The "Lonesome Road" DLC adds the [[M84 stun grenade]] as the "Flash Bang". Unlike regular grenades, it deals fatigue damage and reduces enemy weapon skills.
[[File:M84-Flash-Bang-Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M84 stun grenade]]

[[Image:FNV Stun.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Courier finds a M84 stun grenade in some rubble.]]

=="Frag Grenade"==
The fictional "Frag Grenades" returning from ''Fallout 3'' seem to be a hybrid of the [[Mk 2 hand grenade]] and the Type 91 hand grenade (the predecessor to the [[Type 97 hand grenade]] with a socket on the base for attaching a propellant charge in order to use the grenade as a rifle grenade or mortar projectile). In-game, they can be found in boxes and crates in certain locations, looted from Recruit Legionaries, and bought from some merchants (including the Vendortron). The Frag Grenade is also an improved holdout weapon, meaning that any Courier with a Sneak skill of 50 or higher can take them into weapons-free zones, though their quality as a stealth weapon is obviously highly dubious..

Occasionally, the Courier will run into traps consisting of three frag grenades hanging from a ceiling, a setup that the game rather affectionately calls a "Grenade Bouquet". If the Courier has an Explosives skill of 30 or more, then they can retrieve these grenades for later use.

If the player has the Wild Wasteland trait, a box in the basement of Camp Searchlight's church that normally contains mini-nukes will instead contain three unique "Holy Frag Grenades", identical to the regular grenades except for a white cross painted onto the body. Compared to the standard frag grenade, the Holy Frag Grenade has a far larger and more damaging explosion, and leaves radiation in its wake, much like a mini-nuke. The Holy Frag Grenades as a whole, as well as the text found near to them on a box, are a reference to ''Monty Python and the Holy Grail''.

==AN/M14 Incendiary Grenade==
The game's "Incendiary Grenade", while somewhat generic, seems to be an [[AN/M14 incendiary grenade]] with a black-and-orange coloration. Its markings claim it is an "AN-2051 INCENDIARY GRENADE", as well as a "MODEL 0531". The incendiary grenade can be found in several locations, though it isn't as widespread as the Frag Grenade. Like other grenades, the Incendiary Grenade is an improved holdout weapon.

=Other=
==Fictional AA Gun==
A fictional type of anti-aircraft gun, seemingly based on the Schwerer Gustav "Dora" 80cm railway gun snd heavily scaled down, is seen in pre-war emplacements on Hoover Dam. Additionally, the fixed artillery pieces found at the X-7a site at Big MT in ''Old World Blues'', which can be used to fire a Saturnite round at the X-7b site, seem to be a variant of the AA gun, being constructed of some of the same parts.

=="Flamer"==
The fictious "Flamer" flamethrower returns from ''Fallout 3''. Due to the Big Guns skill no longer existing, it is classed as an Energy Weapon. Its model is identical to the Fallout 3 version, and so again seems to be based on the [[M9 Flamethrower|M9A1-7 Flamethrower]], with a backpack similar to that of the [[M2 Flamethrower]]. In-game, it is found in a few locations, including two of The Strip's casinos (the Gomorrah and the Ultra Luxe), in the Silver Rush, on the Fiend leader Cook-Cook, in Vaults 3 and 22, and on the Marked Man Blister in Lonesome Road.

The Flamer has one modification - "Expanded Tanks", which double its ammunition capacity.

The "Gun Runner's Arsenal" DLC adds a unique variant of the Flamer to the game; the "Cleansing Flame". Compared to the standard Flamer, it weighs more (22 pounds instead of 15), costs slightly more AP to use in VATS, does slightly less base damage, has a lower crit chance, and has a higher spread, but is more durable, holds 100 units of fuel (higher than the Flamer's base capacity, but lower than the Flamer with expanded tanks), and has a slightly longer after-burn effect that increases in both damage and duration with the user's Energy Weapons skill. Visually, it has 2 moderately-sized fuel tanks and 1 smaller pressure tank (rather than the 2 small fuel tanks and one large pressure tank of the standard version), a narrower nozzle, three orange fuel lines on the wand (rather than the single black one of the normal Flamer), and a distinctive blue flame effect.

==M112 C4 Demolition Charge==
The in-game C4 charges are composed of 4 US-issue M112 C4 charges held together with tape. In-game, they are quite powerful, and can be found in several locations, albeit in small numbers. While the player requires a detonator to set them off normally, one is not absolutely necessary, as the in-game C4 can erroneously be detonated by gunfire, something which does not happen with actual C4.

[[File:FNV C4 Explosion.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Courier uses a detonator to set off several C4 charges, with spectacular results.]]

==M101 Howitzer==
Somewhat oversized M101 Howitzers appear in a few locations in the game, notably at Nellis AFB and The Fort. The one at the Fort is broken, and the Legion sidequest "I Hear You Knocking" has the player go to Nellis AFB to retrieve a replacement firing mechanism.

[[File:FNV Howitzer Legion.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Legion's broken howitzer, on Fortification Hill.]]

==Daisy Red Ryder BB Gun==
The [[Red Ryder]] returns from ''Fallout 3'', again as the "BB Gun". Markings on the loader claim it to be a "Raider BB Rifle". It is the weakest ranged weapon in the game - which makes sense, it being a toy rather than an actual weapon. It has a capacity of 100 BBs. Its accuracy is somewhat poor; this issue is compounded by the fact that, like in ''Fallout 3'', the weapon's iron sights are blocked by the player character's fingers; this is more of an issue in New Vegas as aiming actually uses the iron sights rather than simply zooming the view in. It can be found in a variety of locations, including (but not limited to): toy boxes, the Nellis schoolhouse, a shack at the top of Coyote Mines, Blue Paradise Vacation Rentals, a house in Nipton, the Great Khan armorer (sometimes), and Coach's office in "Old World Blues". Amusingly enough, despite being an airgun firing BBs, it it still considered a rifle by the game, and is thus capable of certain odd things, such as igniting flammable vapors with its nonexistent muzzle blast.

The unique variant of the weapon, the "Abilene Kid LE BB Gun", is visually identical to the base version visually except for a marking on the stock denoting it as the first model of a 200-strong limited edition. It is nearly identical statistics-wise to the standard BB Gun, save for better durability, a slightly higher crit chance (1.5 instead of 1), and an extremely high critical damage boost, bumping it from a base damage of 4 to a whopping 70 on a critical hit (compared to the standard variant's critical damage of 6.2); furthermore, with the correct perks, this can be raised all the way to 157. The Abilene Kid LE BB Gun can be found in Fields' Shack, or in Jimmy's Well if the player has the Wild Wasteland trait.

The direct sequel to ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Rising Storm]]'', '''''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam''''' brings the intense tactical realism of Tripwire Interactive's ''Red Orchestra'' series into the the Vietnam War, at the height of American involvement, with the notable continuation of asymmetrical faction elements from the previous title (such as the helicopters and air support of the American forces versus the tunnel spawn system of the Vietnamese forces). Both the United States Army and Marine Corps are present in levels based on their respective battles of the war, fighting against either the National Liberation Front (Viet Cong) or the People's Army of Vietnam (North Vietnamese Army). A new feature of this title is the ability for the player to customize the personal appearance of their in-game character, differentiated between the five factions and the additional helicopter pilot class of the US forces.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam (2017)'''''.

__TOC__ 

=Weapons of the US Army, USMC, ARVN and the Australian Army=
==Sidearms==
===Colt M1911A1===
As with the previous title, the [[M1911_pistol_series#M1911A1|Colt M1911A1]] is available as a sidearm to most classes in the US forces as well as the ARVN, with the exception of the Grunt, and the Radioman and Combat Engineer on some maps. The Australian Commander class can also use it. It comes with two spare 7-round magazines.

[[File:M1911A1 reloadingfromempty.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the gun.]]

===M1917 Revolver===
Added in the 1.03 update, the [[M1917 Revolver]] is an alternative to the 1911 pistol for South Vietnamese forces issued with a sidearm. It is fired in double-action mode with a significantly long trigger pull and poor accuracy, but the hammer can also be cocked manually before each shot to eliminate the delay and the accuracy penalty. The revolver is loaded using two half-moon clips, and comes with 6 spares for a total of the 3 reloads from empty. It cannot be reloaded if less than three rounds have been fired; the player character never ejects a clip if there are still rounds on it, so if 3 to 5 rounds have been fired, he only ejects the half-moon clip with the spent rounds on it by keeping the other one in place with his palm, and one loaded half-moon clip is placed inside the cylinder. If all the rounds have been fired, both clips are ejected and two new ones are put in place.

[[File:M1917 cocking the hammer.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The hammer can be cocked manually to fire the revolver in single-action mode, which gives an accuracy boost.]]

===Browning Hi-Power===
Added in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Browning Hi-Power]] is a standard issue pistol of the Australian Army, complete with 13 round magazines and a fully adjustable rear sight. Reliable damage plus relatively low recoil and mags double the size of most of the other handguns on offer make this a popular backup for anyone playing Aussies.

==Submachine Guns==

===M1A1 Thompson===
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] was added as the standard-issue SMG for the ARVN faction in the 1.08 ARVN Update. It comes with 30-round box magazines and can be switched between semi and full-auto fire modes. The M1A1's mostly comparable to the VC's MAT-49, a high rate of fire SMG but still relatively controllable and useful at sweeping through rooms at close quarters. The only real con I can give this one is that it suffers from the same overall low amount of spare mags that effects every SMG in the game.

[[Image:RS2 Thompson reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading which looks similar to the brass check. The M1A1's bolt hold open is both rendered in-game and partially to blame.]]

===M3A1 Grease Gun===
The [[M3 / M3A1 "Grease Gun"|M3A1 Grease Gun]] is available to the Pointman, Combat Engineer, and Commander classes. It is issued with 3 spare magazines, and its wire stock can be collapsed for added maneuvrability in tight spaces which, naturally, also decreases accuracy. The Grease Gun is an entertainingly fun SMG which benefits greatly from its slow rate of fire, making it effective at close to medium range.

===Owen Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Owen Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout and Radioman. Like the M1A1, the Owen's mostly comparable to the VC's choice in SMG's. A fast firing, relatively accurate and somewhat controllable gun for sweeping through trench lines.

[[File:RS2V Owen Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Before ending it with a swift tug of the rear-mounted charging handle.]]

===F1 Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[F1 SMG|F1 Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout, Combat Engineer and Commander. While it might seem useless in comparison with it's WWII counterpart, the F1's got a much slower rate of fire over the Owen meaning it's easier to control and keep on target in combat. Plus it comes with a bayonet.

==Shotguns==
===Ithaca Model 37===
The 12-gauge [[Ithaca 37]] pump-action shotgun, used extensively by South Vietnamese in Vietnam, is available to the Pointman and Combat Engineer classes. It comes in three distinct variants :

- the full-size Trench Gun sports wooden furniture, a heat shield, and a bayonet lug which can mount a standard M7 bayonet. It holds 5 shells. The most controllable and simple of all the Ithaca variants, easy to use and easy to run around with in-general.

- the 'Stakeout' Riot Gun is a handier variant, with a pistol grip and no buttstock, that also recoils a lot harder. Note that it isn't an actual 'Stakeout' model : it has a standard 20-inch barrel instead of the shortened 13-inch barrel. A handy shotgun for close quarters maps like Hue City, the Riot Gun's main problem is the lack of an ability to aim down the barrel which is somewhat compensated by the faster ADS time and better maneuverability.

- the 'Duckbill' Conversion is fitted with an extended magazine tube that holds 8 shells, and a muzzle attachment that spreads out fired pellets in a wide, horizontal pattern. While it seems a tad redundant, the Duckbill does have some utility in that it can funnel your shot into a much easier to gauge spread meaning you're less likely to accidentally hit allies with stray pellets. Useful for close quarters maps and areas with pillboxes where a horizontal spread of shot will wipe out whoever is inside.

Both the Trench and Riot Guns are issued with 35 shells of either 00 Buckshot (8 large pellets) or No.4 Buckshot (16 smaller pellets) : the former packs more punch, while the latter increases hit probability at extended ranges because of the sheer number of projectiles. The 'Duckbill' Conversion on the other hand comes with 32 shells of No.4 Buckshot only, to get the most out of its muzzle attachement. It is worth to note that the reload sequence for all the available Model 37 variants is performed incorrecty. When reloading from empty, the player character always puts one shell too many in the magazine tube (5 when there should be 4 for the Trench and Riot Guns, 8 when there should be 7 in the 'Duckbill' Conversion), and does so while the bolt is back so when he racks the action forward, there should be no round in the chamber. And when topping off the magazine tube, he racks the action backward before filling up the magazine tube, which is not only unnecessary but also counter-productive as it ejects an unfired shell.

==Rifles==

===M1/M2 Carbines===
The [[M1 Carbine]] and its fully-automatic variant the [[M2 Carbine]] were added in update 1.07. The M1 Carbine is available to Northern Sappers and Riflemen on some maps and comes with 15-round magazines and a well-worn appearance, while the M2 is available as an alternative primary for US Grenadiers as well as the ARVN Pointman and Rifleman and comes with 30-round magazines and can be toggled between semi-auto and full-auto. The M1 and M2 Carbines are best utilized at close to medium range. The M2 is also a good weapon for very close quarters as the .30 Carbine cartridge is more powerful than any of the SMGs on offer.

[[Image:RS2 M2 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the M2. The bolt being open is partially correct, the 30 rounders do hold the bolt open but only when the mag is in the gun, a later update fixed this.]]

===M1 Garand===
The [[M1 Garand]] has been added as the main rifle of the ARVN. The M1D variant is also used by the ARVN as their standard issue sniper rifle. The M1 Garand balances itself nicely against the more modern weapons favored by the PAVN and NLF, however the .30-06's power means that you have better overall accuracy, more power and a faster reload than most of their weapons. As for the M1D, it's an adequate sniper rifle with more flexibility as you can easily swap over to irons sights.

[[Image:RS2 M1D scope.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Scoped in to the M84 Scope, a single post and windage line. The M1D definitely trades range for versatility.]]

===M16A1 Assault Rifle===
The [[M16A1]] is the assault rifle of the US Rifleman as well as the ARVN Pointman. It comes with seven spare 20-round magazines that actually hold 18 (a common practice to avoid magazine-related malfunctions), accepts a bayonet, and both the short-range and long-range apertures are usable. The M16 is one of the most effective weapons in the game.
[[File:M16A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M16A1 with 20 round magazine - 5.56x45mm]]

[[File:M16A1 bayonet.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like most other rifles in the game, you can mount a bayonet.]]

===M14 Rifle===
The [[M14]] rifle is a large-caliber alternative to the M16 for US Grunts and Radiomen, and is the only rifle available to the Commander role. It is capable of mounting a bayonet, and is issued with five spare 20-round magazines that can be topped off using 5-round stripper clips. Its rear sight can be adjusted for elevation through five settings, from 91 meters all the way up to 457 meters (100 to 500 yards). Although the real-life M14 is select-fire, the in-game version can only be fired in semi-automatic mode (as was common practice during the Vietnam conflict).

===XM177E1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[M16_rifle_series#Colt_XM177.2FCAR-15.2FCommando_Series|XM177E1]] is available to the US Army. The player can adjust the length of the stock which makes the iron sight picture larger and makes the weapon more compact at a cost of controllability on full-auto. The XM177 bridges the gap between the full size M16A1 and the Grease Gun in a very good way, allowing the same power and relative accuracy of the M16 in a size thats useful for tight trenches and tunnels as well as cities.

===L1A1 SLR===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L1A1 SLR]] is available to the Rifleman, Grenadier, Radioman, and Commander classes of the Australian Army. Besides different animations and fire sounds, the L1A1 is mostly comparable to the American M14 with a few caveats. It has a bigger sight picture, slightly faster reloads and fires faster in semi-auto.

===XM21 Sniper Weapon System===
The [[M21#M21.2FM25_Sniper_Weapon_System|XM21]] rifle is available to the US Army Marksman. It comes in two variants :

- the Standard variant is a regular M14 fitted with an AR TEL scope.

- the Suppressed variant (added as part of the August 2017 1.03 update) which is fitted with a sound suppressor instead of the standard flash hider, and fires subsonic ammunition, which means that it's action has to be manually operated after each shot, since the lower power ammunition can't cycle the bolt. Alternatively the gas system might have been cut off by the user to avoid the action noise and make the rifle as quiet as possible. The lower velocity ammunition also means constantly changing the zero is neccessary.

Both rifles come with an AR TEL scope with six magnification setting from 3x to 9x. Each magnification setting also has its own zero setting (the higher the magnification, the higher the zero distance), and it is different for the two rifles because of the different ammunition they fire. The Standard variant starts off at 100m and can get to 700m in 100m increments, while the Suppressed variant begins at 50m and can get to 200m in 25m increments. They also have an alternate aiming mode for close range where the player looks over the scope and uses the dials as impromptu sights.
Both rifles come with 3 spare 20-round magazines.

===M40 Sniper Rifle===
The [[M40 Sniper Rifle]] is issued to the USMC Marksman with the equivalent of six stripper clips of spare ammunition, for a total of 30 spare rounds. Its distinctively-finished Redfield scope is elevation-adjustable through 6 settings, from 90 to 550 meters (100 to 600 yards), However, unlike the actual scope, it is not adjustable for magnification but locked to 3x. This means the scope's rangefinder doesn't work even though the necessary reticule markings are correctly featured (see pictures for detailed explanation). The scope also covers up the feeding/ejection port so the M40 must be reloaded with individual rounds. The M40 is mostly comparable to the VC's M91/30, a slower but more precise sniper rifle except this one doesn't have any backup iron sights.

==Machine Guns==

===M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle===
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle]] has been added as the main light machine gun of the ARVN forces. The gun is outdated compared to the VC's DP-28 or RPD.

===M1919A6 Browning Machine Gun===
The [[Browning M1919A6]] has been added as the main medium machine gun for the ARVN forces, as their counterpart to the M60. The M1919A6 is the most appropriate LMG in the game in terms of sheer volume of fire. With two whole 150 round belts plus a relatively controllable rate of fire especially when on the bipod, the M1919 is the gun in the game most suited for sustained fire.

===M60 GPMG===
The [[M60]] is the main machine gun of the American forces, and only available to the Machine Gunner. "The Pig" is issued with either three 100-round belt boxes, or a single 200-round belt of 7.62x51mm ammunition, with one in five a tracer. Its rear leaf sight is adjustable for elevation in 100-meter increments, from 400m to 1100m. It also has a bipod usable when prone or behind cover. With a relatively controllable rate of fire, decent stability and easy to read sights, It is flexible enough to be useful for use with either the bipod or off-hand in a more mobile role.

===L2A1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L2A1 machine gun]] is available to the Australian Machine Gunner and is outfitted with a foregrip/bipod hybrid. With the bipod down and mounted, it's a fairly efficient LMG only hampered by the 30-round magazine size, but has the ability to change between semi-auto and full auto.

==Launchers and Flamethrowers==
===M79 Grenade Launcher===
The [[M79]] "Thumper" Grenade Launcher is the only explosive launcher available to the US forces. A variety of 40x46mm ammunition is available for different situations : 6 rounds of High-Explosive and 2 rounds of masking smoke, 6 rounds of HE and another 6 rounds of Buckshot, or simply 9 HE grenades. The HE rounds have a realistic arming distance of about 15 meters : within this range, they won't explode if they hit their target, or a barrier. Unexploded 40mm rounds still so damage, and can kill with a well-placed shot : managing this will earn the player the 'Thumper' achievement. Finally, the M79's rear sight is adjustable for elevation from 50 to 300 meters, in 25 meters increments.

=Weapons of the NVA/PAVN and the VC/NLF=
==Sidearms==
===Tokarev TT-33===
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the main sidearm for the North Vietnamese forces. It holds 8 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev per magazine.

==Submachine Guns==
===MAT-49===
The [[MAT-49]] is a usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. Players can choose between the original French 9mm version or the Vietnamese 7.62x25mm Tokarev conversion, the latter has an increased fire rate. The MAT is a very useful SMG for close quarters combat in either version with a potent high rate of fire, relative accuracy and some stability.

[[File:RS2 MAT-49(3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Collapsing the stock.]]

===MP40===
The [[MP40]] was added to the game in Update 1.2 as a submachine gun for the NLF. This serves as a far more controllable but lower volume of fire counter part to the MAT-49 and PPSH.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]

[[File:RS2MP40Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Charging the bolt.]]

===PPSh-41===
The [[PPSh-41]] is another usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, having a much higher fire rate than the [[MAT-49]]. Like in ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'', the PPSh starts off with 35-round magazines, though the original 71-round drum magazines are also available in the loadout screen. The fire selector is also usable on the base weapon. The PPSh is decent with the only problem of the high rate of fire clashing with the small magazine size.

==Shotguns==
===IZH-58===
A double-barreled IZH-58 shotgun is usable for the North Vietnamese forces in both full-length, Coach Gun and sawed-off versions. The sawn-off version appears to reload slightly faster and is limited to 00 Buckshot while the Coach Gun and full-length versions are able to use 1oz Slugs in addition to Buckshot.

Weirdly enough, it was called the "IZH-43" in the beta, which was the replacement to the IZH-58 introduced in 1986, then it was renamed the period accurate "IZH-58". However, in a recent update the IZh-58 was painted gloss black and simply dubbed the "SxS shotgun" likely to address the question of how a Soviet double barreled shotgun ends up in the fields of Vietnam.

==Rifles==
===AKM / Type 56 / Type 56-1===
Several AK-pattern rifles grouped under the "[[AK-47]]" classification are available to the Rifleman on the North Vietnamese side :

- the [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]], with its fixed wood stock, 'bakelite' pistol grip, ribbed dust cover and open front sight ring. It accepts a Type II bayonet and is the most average of all the AK variants with relatively accurate fire, controllable full auto fire and overall good performance.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56]], that differs with its wood pistol grip, smooth dust cover, higher full auto fire rate and fully enclosed front sight ring. It also has integrated spike bayonet which can be unfolded.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]] is the underfolding variant of the Type 56. It doesn't have a bayonet but can have the stock folded to make it more compact and less controllable.

All three rifles come with three spare 30-round steel magazines. They can be fired in semi or fully-automatic, and while the fire selector is not animated and stays in the 'Safe' position, for some reason, the hand of the character actually moves down when switching to semi, and moves up when switching to fully-automatic. The rear sight of all the rifles are adjustable for elevation from 100m to 800m in 100-meters increments, which is correct for the Type 56 guns, but not for the AKM which should be able to go up to 1000m.

===MAS-49===
The [[MAS-49]] was added to the game in Update 1.3 in 3 basic variants.

- The standard variant with iron sights, available to scouts and many Early War classes.

- The grenade launcher version, available to the Sapper which allows for the use of 6 HE Rifle Grenades.

- And the Marksman version, which is fitted with an APX scope and is used by the Marksman.

===Mosin Nagant M91/30===
The [[Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] is available to the North Vietnamese factions in both the standard and sniper rifle variants.

[[File:RS2VSMNR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading using singular cartridges.]]

===SKS-45===
The [[SKS]] appears as a usable rifle to the PAVN/VC forces. A decent all-arounder rifle, the SKS is mostly used by classes who get either this or a shotgun so if you don't want to be angry Papa-san running around with his hunting gun, here you go.
[[Image:Simonov-Russian-SKS45.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Russian SKS - 7.62x39mm]]

[[File:RS2 SKS (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Checking the ammo.]]

===SVD Dragunov===
The [[SVD Dragunov]] appears as another sniper rifle for the North Vietnamese forces; its semi-automatic operation and box magazines are key advantages over the scoped Mosin-Nagant.

==Machine Guns==
===Degtyaryov DP-28===
The [[DP-28]] from ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'' returns as an available machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces.
[[Image:DP-28.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Degtyaryov DP-28 - 7.62x54mm R]]

[[File:RS2VDPR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading by opening the bolt, swapping pans and inserting the fresh one.]]

===Degtyaryov RP-46===
The [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], the belt-fed version of the DP-28 was added in Update 1.3 as an alternative to either the RPD or DP-28. What it lacks in total ammo capacity and spare rounds is made up for by allowing high power belt fed covering fire.

[[Image:RP46.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RP-46 - 7.62x54mm R]]
[[File:RS2RP46.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RP-46 in-game, the red headed step child between the DP and RPD rarely seen in games.]]

[[File:RS2RP46Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Racking the bolt after closing the cover.]]

===Degtyaryov RPD===
The [[RPD]] appears as the main light machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, serving as a direct counterpart to the M60 with relatively controllable rate of fire and stability. It uses the 100-round drum by default, but a 200-round belt variant was added in Update 1.2.
[[Image:RPD-Light-Machine-Gun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RPD - 7.62x39mm]]

[[File:RS2VRPDR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the RPD.]]

==Launchers==
===RPG-7===
The iconic [[RPG-7]] appears as the main launcher for the North Vietnamese forces, coming with the launcher plus 3 rounds. While it must be aimed before you fire, it's effective against both ground targets and helicopters. The launcher features backblast as is realistic.
[[Image:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]
[[File:RS2VRPGS.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like in Tripwire's other game [[Killing Floor 2]], the player cocks the hammer on the RPG off before firing.]]
[[File:RS2VRPGA.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the RPG-7.]]
[[File:RS2VRPGR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the RPG-7 by inserting a rocket.]]

==Grenades and Explosives==
===MD-82 Mine===
The North Vietnamese Sapper class comes armed with 5 MD-82 antipersonnel mines which are a copy of the American [[M14 anti-personnel mine]].

[[Image:M14Mine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M14 anti-personnel mine with safety clip attached.]]

[[File:RS2MD82-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pulling the pin to arm the mine.]]

===RGD-1 Smoke Grenade===
The Soviet RGD-1 Smoke Grenade appears as the North Vietnamese smoke grenade of choice, albeit only in white.

[[File:RDG-1 Diagram.jpg|thumb|none|250px|RDG-1 smoke grenade diagram]]
[[File:RS2RGD-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RGD-1 in-game.]]
[[File:RS2RGD-1-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like the later pattern RGD-2, the RGD-1 is set off by removing the top cover and striking the top casing.]]

===Type 67 Grenade===
The North Vietnamese forces use the Type 67 as their standard grenade, functioning around the same as the M61.

[[Image:Type67Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Type 67 High-Explosive Fragmentation stick grenade]]
[[File:RS2Type67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Vietcong soldier shows us his handy Chinese potato masher.]]

==Mounted Weapons==
===DShK Heavy Machine Gun===
Several maps have [[DShK heavy machine gun]] mounted on tripod mounts for the North Vietnamese. Feeding from standard 50-round boxes, the DShK is used both for firing on infantry but especially for anti-air and anti-helicopter roles. A player-deployable version was added in Update 1.2.

[[Image:DSHK.jpg|thumb|none|400px|DShKM on tripod - 12.7x108mm]]

== Beta "Review" ==

So, long story short, I was one of the 1.6 Beta testers for this game. And boy oh boy, is this game fun. -[[User:SeptemberJack|SeptemberJack]] ([[User talk:SeptemberJack|talk]]) 21:12, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

:We need screenshots soon or the page looks like it will get nuked. --[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 22:05, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

::Don't worry, I'm getting them right now and will post them soon. --[[User:MJ79|MJ79]] ([[User talk:MJ79|talk]]) 22:08, 30 May 2017 (EDT)

::Okay, I think that's all the shots I've posted for now, and it looks almost complete! You're gonna need to fill in for the rest of the weapons.
::BTW credits to PC Gaming Videos (XSmasher4ya) for the video where I made the screen rips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fetrCc-FeM--[[User:MJ79|MJ79]] ([[User talk:MJ79|talk]]) 01:01, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
:::Appreciate that, but I think the page should eventually get proper in-game captures rather than from a Youtube video. I would get more but I can only run the game on rather meager settings.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 18:13, 21 June 2017 (EDT)
::I know that game screenshots with guns in different poses but same background count for the wiki, but they're still boring to look at. We need someone who has the full game to make some screenshots with more variety, preferably in action.--[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 18:02, 22 June 2017 (EDT)

Frankly, did the Soviets supply shotguns to the Vietcong? It seems to me that this is far-fetched. Some older shotgun such as M1897 would be much more appropriate. --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 18:16, 3 June 2019 (EDT)

:They technically addressed that minor issue in a recent update, where the IZh-58 was repainted black and just dubbed the "SxS shotgun". Even if they hadn't, it's implied to be a farmer's personal hunting weapon given it's to classes like Scout. --[[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]] 18:29, 3 June 2019 (EST)

==M14==
I've read somewhere that the standard issue M14 had it's fire selector removed when issued out and only if you were selected to be an automatic rifleman would you actually have a select fire M14. --[[User:AdAstra2009|AdAstra2009]] ([[User talk:AdAstra2009|talk]]) 16:56, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
: I believe the selector was locked in semi for most people, I can't see how you remove it without messing up the gun somehow.--[[User:Mandolin|Mandolin]] ([[User talk:Mandolin|talk]]) 19:24, 31 May 2017 (EDT)
I looked it up and you are correct --[[User:AdAstra2009|AdAstra2009]] ([[User talk:AdAstra2009|talk]]) 21:57, 31 May 2017 (EDT)

==Stoner 63==
During the war, some troops were issued with the Stoner 63, especially in LMG variant. Since the Vietnamese soldiers have access to the DP-28, it would be actually good to side the Stoner with, don't you think? --[[User:James Dalcan|James Dalcan]] ([[User talk:James Dalcan|talk]]) 14:15, 02 June 2017 (GMT)
:If I recall correctly, Stoner 63's were only given to Navy SEAL's in Vietnam, not regular old Army or Marines.--[[User:Aidoru|Aidoru]] ([[User talk:Aidoru|talk]]) 12:30, 2 June 2017 (EDT)
::Tripwire just added the Stoner 63A in KF2, so one would hope it comes to this game. They did have the MKb-42(H) in Red Orchestra 2, as well.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 16:25, 2 June 2017 (EDT)

As the title implies, this FREE DLC pack is going to add the Aussie forces as a playable faction into the game. New weapons include the L1A1 battle rifle and L2A1 light support weapon, the F1 and Owen submachine guns and the Browning Hi-Power pistol, and lots of cosmetic stuff are in as well. Now that's how DLC should be.
--[[User:MJ79|MJ79]] ([[User talk:MJ79|talk]]) 10:24, 29 November 2017 (EST)
:Awesome stuff! Apparently, the US will also get the XM177E1, and 3 new maps are getting added. Frankly, I'm hoping that the L1A1 will get some of its field-expedient modifications as options, such as the "matchstick" full-auto conversion, and the short-barreled variant, affectionately termed the "Bitch Gun". Well, we'll see. You can always count on Tripwire to do some interesting things. [[User:Pyr0m4n14c|Pyr0m4n14c]] ([[User talk:Pyr0m4n14c|talk]]) 16:32, 29 November 2017 (EST)

I hope that they continue with this faction dsl and do:
ARVN/CIDG with older us weapons garlands, m1/2 carbine, bar etc
Viet Song with older French and maybe Japanese weapons
Special forces/macv sog with stoner 63, hush puppy, Swedish k, AKs for us troops,xm148 and didn't the seals use some h&k g3s or hk33s in Vietnam.

== On my editing of weapons entries for this page ==

Hey I'm rather new to this place and as such I'm not entirely sure this is the place to take something like this up so if it's an inappropriate place I will be happy to move this discussion wherever I'm directed. Nevertheless I have found the way this page is written in many instances isn't in accordance with the [[Rules, Standards and Principles]]''' in particular with:

===No page vandalism===
'''Vandalism of pages will get you banned - no warning ahead of time.''' This means putting in obviously false or inflammatory information, removing the contents of an entire page or section or putting in gibberish or spam or threats or vulgar inappropriate content. '''''Some members may put in semi-ridiculous comments like 'This gun rocks!' or 'This is my favorite gun'.''''' Actions like these won't result in a ban, unless the person continues after multiple warnings. Those types of comments are best left in the discussion pages which accompany every page on the site.

As well as:

===No sarcastic or insulting Commentary===
:Due to IMFDB's increasing role as a site of movie trivia research, '''''we are clamping down on commentary which may appear sarcastic, insulting or denigrating.''''' Criticizing an actor's firing stance or snickering at them 'flinching' during blank fire is becoming increasingly frowned upon by IMFDB. Pointing out how ridiculous a scene is due to mythical firearm ballistics, or lack of reloading, or lack of technical advisers can be done, but only in a non-insulting manner and only if it is relevant to increasing the public knowledge of the weapon and its proper usage. '''''If one has to point out a flaw or mistake, please try to do it as scholarly and neutrally as possible.''''' Using the old 'management axiom' "Praise in public, Criticize in Private", we can move any casual discussions to the 'Discussions Pages', that is what they are there for. Looking for movie still frames where an actor blinks or flinches (just to ridicule) is not necessary and brings down the professionalism of the site.

'''Some examples of how I feel these rules are being broken are as follows:'''

'''"Reloading the gun and giving Charlie the finger."'''

"The M3's sights are crude, but effective. '''Effective enough to get a good shot at this poor bastard's head anyways."'''

"Aiming the Owen SMG, '''everything's upside down in Australia, even the sights are on the wrong side."'''

"Affixing the bayonet on the F1 '''because you can."'''

'''"A spooked Aussie does a quick brass check, showcasing that his gun is loaded and the game has water effects that do coat both characters and weapons in water."'''

'''"Moments later, he opens fire on an unfortunate MAT-49-wielding VC.''' The shotgun is actually being aimed here : it's a bit off-centre to reflect the lack of a buttstock to properly brace the gun."

'''"Sighting up a particularly threatening wooden target, slightly harder as''' the steel repair bands block the front sight."

I hope I don't need to mention any more smarmy and unnecessary comments about the firearms in the game. I have attempted to alter some of these instances but they are being undone by -[[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]]

I will be clear I am not accusing of -[[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]] vandalism but I feel the way this page has been authored it does not seem to pass the scrutiny that the rules outline.

:Eh. Vandalism is pushing it. I will say I was being incredibly rude to you by shutting down your edits and immediately undoing them, that was a bad knee jerk reaction to seeing the page edited and I do apologize. That being said, the professionalism bit is really vague nowadays. Most games like this have a light hearted tone, just read the H3VR page and that's what I was trying to do here by breaking up the same generic text blocks with something a little less painful to read. I can say you did do some good work trimming the fat on some of the more longwinded descriptions I put down, but my main issue was just the deletion of whole comments in-general. --[[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]] 00:34, 9 October 2019 (EST)

::I would like to remind you I said I am not accusing you of vandalism but it appears to me the rule touches upon a bit more than just vandalism and as such the rule isn't particularly well named. I do realize that the game might have a light hearted tone but it appears to me especially with these two parts of the second above mentioned rule:

:::"we are clamping down on commentary which may appear '''sarcastic, insulting''' or denigrating."

::As well as:

:::'''If one has to point out a flaw or mistake, please try to do it as scholarly and neutrally as possible.'''

::These two parts of the rule as well as the fact that this is an encyclopedia molded in the image of Wikipedia and the like that indeed ''"generic text blocks"'' as you put it are what these two additions aim to enforce. I am simply trying to come across as matter-of-fact and for lack of a better term ''robotic'' as possible, exactly as you would see on a Wikipedia page. I do agree with you however I don't think a screenshot should necessarily be left completely blank, I certainly would prefer that they at least had some type of caption, I was mostly intending to go through what seemed inappropriate first and then I had planned to go through to fill in where I left blanks. [[User:DevaKitty|DevaKitty]] ([[User talk:DevaKitty|talk]]) 00:50, 9 October 2019 (EDT)

:::Reminder noted. Matter-of-fact isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I find the longer a page gets the more mind numbing they become. Again, apologies for stepping on your fingers last night, by all means go through the page and I'll amend it so we balance each other out on this issue. --[[User:PaperCake|PaperCake]] 13:35, 9 October 2019 (EST)

:::It's worth noting that I made noise about that rule in the past and was told it didn't really apply to video game pages. --[[User:Tamarin88|Tamarin88]] ([[User talk:Tamarin88|talk]]) 17:42, 9 October 2019 (EDT)
:::: There's being light and fun, and then there's being straight-up tacky, which I think this page previously leaned more toward. Several remarks were in rather bad taste, I think. While I get breaking the monotony and all, it can be overdone and/or badly done. And I'd rather have a dry page than one ripe with poorly-done trash talk. But that's me. That said, the professionalism standard isn't one set in stone, but it doesn't mean go nuts either. As always use your best judgment. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 19:10, 9 October 2019 (EDT)

:::::Oh yeah it appears I got a couple things to learn, sorry to have spammed up the edit history with small edits, I will do all the edits in one instance from now and just save them after the fact. [[User:DevaKitty|DevaKitty]] ([[User talk:DevaKitty|talk]]) 20:42, 9 October 2019 (EDT)

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

The direct sequel to ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Rising Storm]]'', '''''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam''''' brings the intense tactical realism of Tripwire Interactive's ''Red Orchestra'' series into the the Vietnam War, at the height of American involvement, with the notable continuation of asymmetrical faction elements from the previous title (such as the helicopters and air support of the American forces versus the tunnel spawn system of the Vietnamese forces). Both the United States Army and Marine Corps are present in levels based on their respective battles of the war, fighting against either the National Liberation Front (Viet Cong) or the People's Army of Vietnam (North Vietnamese Army). A new feature of this title is the ability for the player to customize the personal appearance of their in-game character, differentiated between the five factions and the additional helicopter pilot class of the US forces.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam (2017)'''''.

__TOC__ 

=Weapons of the US Army, USMC, ARVN and the Australian Army=
==Sidearms==
===Colt M1911A1===
As with the previous title, the [[M1911_pistol_series#M1911A1|Colt M1911A1]] is available as a sidearm to most classes in the US forces as well as the ARVN, with the exception of the Grunt, and the Radioman and Combat Engineer on some maps. The Australian Commander class can also use it. It comes with two spare 7-round magazines.
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:M1911A1 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Holding the Colt with one hand.]]
[[File:M1911 brass check.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like with many weapons in the game, the player character performs a brass check when the reload key is hit if the magazine is full.]]

[[File:M1911A1 reloadingfromempty.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the gun.]]

===M1917 Revolver===
Added in the 1.03 update, the [[M1917 Revolver]] is an alternative to the 1911 pistol for South Vietnamese forces issued with a sidearm. It is fired in double-action mode with a significantly long trigger pull and poor accuracy, but the hammer can also be cocked manually before each shot to eliminate the delay and the accuracy penalty. The revolver is loaded using two half-moon clips, and comes with 6 spares for a total of the 3 reloads from empty. It cannot be reloaded if less than three rounds have been fired; the player character never ejects a clip if there are still rounds on it, so if 3 to 5 rounds have been fired, he only ejects the half-moon clip with the spent rounds on it by keeping the other one in place with his palm, and one loaded half-moon clip is placed inside the cylinder. If all the rounds have been fired, both clips are ejected and two new ones are put in place.
[[File:S&W-Model-1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|M1917 Revolver - .45 ACP. This is the S&W model with the ejector rod socket, just like the in-game version.]]
[[File:M1917 holding.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M1917 being held.]]
[[File:M1917 partial reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The reload sequence when 3 to 5 rounds have been fired : the clip with the spent rounds is ejected, while the other is kept in place manually.]]
[[File:M1917 cocking the hammer.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The hammer can be cocked manually to fire the revolver in single-action mode, which gives an accuracy boost.]]

===Browning Hi-Power===
Added in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Browning Hi-Power]] is a standard issue pistol of the Australian Army, complete with 13 round magazines and a fully adjustable rear sight. Reliable damage plus relatively low recoil and mags double the size of most of the other handguns on offer make this a popular backup for anyone playing Aussies.

[[File:RS2V HiPower Reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the Browning Hi-Power.]]

==Submachine Guns==

===M1A1 Thompson===
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] was added as the standard-issue SMG for the ARVN faction in the 1.08 ARVN Update. It comes with 30-round box magazines and can be switched between semi and full-auto fire modes. The M1A1's mostly comparable to the VC's MAT-49, a high rate of fire SMG but still relatively controllable and useful at sweeping through rooms at close quarters. The only real con I can give this one is that it suffers from the same overall low amount of spare mags that effects every SMG in the game.
[[Image:M1sb.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1A1 Thompson with 30-round magazine - .45 ACP]]
[[Image:RS2 thompson idle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A GI takes some Starvin ARVN toys to the range.]]

===M3A1 Grease Gun===
The [[M3 / M3A1 "Grease Gun"|M3A1 Grease Gun]] is available to the Pointman, Combat Engineer, and Commander classes. It is issued with 3 spare magazines, and its wire stock can be collapsed for added maneuvrability in tight spaces which, naturally, also decreases accuracy. The Grease Gun is an entertainingly fun SMG which benefits greatly from its slow rate of fire, making it effective at close to medium range.

===Owen Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Owen Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout and Radioman. Like the M1A1, the Owen's mostly comparable to the VC's choice in SMG's. A fast firing, relatively accurate and somewhat controllable gun for sweeping through trench lines.

===F1 Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[F1 SMG|F1 Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout, Combat Engineer and Commander. While it might seem useless in comparison with it's WWII counterpart, the F1's got a much slower rate of fire over the Owen meaning it's easier to control and keep on target in combat. Plus it comes with a bayonet.

==Shotguns==
===Ithaca Model 37===
The 12-gauge [[Ithaca 37]] pump-action shotgun, used extensively by South Vietnamese in Vietnam, is available to the Pointman and Combat Engineer classes. It comes in three distinct variants :

- the full-size Trench Gun sports wooden furniture, a heat shield, and a bayonet lug which can mount a standard M7 bayonet. It holds 5 shells. The most controllable and simple of all the Ithaca variants, easy to use and easy to run around with in-general.

- the 'Stakeout' Riot Gun is a handier variant, with a pistol grip and no buttstock, that also recoils a lot harder. Note that it isn't an actual 'Stakeout' model : it has a standard 20-inch barrel instead of the shortened 13-inch barrel. A handy shotgun for close quarters maps like Hue City, the Riot Gun's main problem is the lack of an ability to aim down the barrel which is somewhat compensated by the faster ADS time and better maneuverability.

- the 'Duckbill' Conversion is fitted with an extended magazine tube that holds 8 shells, and a muzzle attachment that spreads out fired pellets in a wide, horizontal pattern. While it seems a tad redundant, the Duckbill does have some utility in that it can funnel your shot into a much easier to gauge spread meaning you're less likely to accidentally hit allies with stray pellets. Useful for close quarters maps and areas with pillboxes where a horizontal spread of shot will wipe out whoever is inside.

Both the Trench and Riot Guns are issued with 35 shells of either 00 Buckshot (8 large pellets) or No.4 Buckshot (16 smaller pellets) : the former packs more punch, while the latter increases hit probability at extended ranges because of the sheer number of projectiles. The 'Duckbill' Conversion on the other hand comes with 32 shells of No.4 Buckshot only, to get the most out of its muzzle attachement. It is worth to note that the reload sequence for all the available Model 37 variants is performed incorrecty. When reloading from empty, the player character always puts one shell too many in the magazine tube (5 when there should be 4 for the Trench and Riot Guns, 8 when there should be 7 in the 'Duckbill' Conversion), and does so while the bolt is back so when he racks the action forward, there should be no round in the chamber. And when topping off the magazine tube, he racks the action backward before filling up the magazine tube, which is not only unnecessary but also counter-productive as it ejects an unfired shell.

==Rifles==

===M1/M2 Carbines===
The [[M1 Carbine]] and its fully-automatic variant the [[M2 Carbine]] were added in update 1.07. The M1 Carbine is available to Northern Sappers and Riflemen on some maps and comes with 15-round magazines and a well-worn appearance, while the M2 is available as an alternative primary for US Grenadiers as well as the ARVN Pointman and Rifleman and comes with 30-round magazines and can be toggled between semi-auto and full-auto. The M1 and M2 Carbines are best utilized at close to medium range. The M2 is also a good weapon for very close quarters as the .30 Carbine cartridge is more powerful than any of the SMGs on offer.

===M1 Garand===
The [[M1 Garand]] has been added as the main rifle of the ARVN. The M1D variant is also used by the ARVN as their standard issue sniper rifle. The M1 Garand balances itself nicely against the more modern weapons favored by the PAVN and NLF, however the .30-06's power means that you have better overall accuracy, more power and a faster reload than most of their weapons. As for the M1D, it's an adequate sniper rifle with more flexibility as you can easily swap over to irons sights.

===M16A1 Assault Rifle===
The [[M16A1]] is the assault rifle of the US Rifleman as well as the ARVN Pointman. It comes with seven spare 20-round magazines that actually hold 18 (a common practice to avoid magazine-related malfunctions), accepts a bayonet, and both the short-range and long-range apertures are usable. The M16 is one of the most effective weapons in the game.
[[File:M16A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M16A1 with 20 round magazine - 5.56x45mm]]

[[File:M16A1 bayonet.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like most other rifles in the game, you can mount a bayonet.]]

===M14 Rifle===
The [[M14]] rifle is a large-caliber alternative to the M16 for US Grunts and Radiomen, and is the only rifle available to the Commander role. It is capable of mounting a bayonet, and is issued with five spare 20-round magazines that can be topped off using 5-round stripper clips. Its rear sight can be adjusted for elevation through five settings, from 91 meters all the way up to 457 meters (100 to 500 yards). Although the real-life M14 is select-fire, the in-game version can only be fired in semi-automatic mode (as was common practice during the Vietnam conflict).

===XM177E1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[M16_rifle_series#Colt_XM177.2FCAR-15.2FCommando_Series|XM177E1]] is available to the US Army. The player can adjust the length of the stock which makes the iron sight picture larger and makes the weapon more compact at a cost of controllability on full-auto. The XM177 bridges the gap between the full size M16A1 and the Grease Gun in a very good way, allowing the same power and relative accuracy of the M16 in a size thats useful for tight trenches and tunnels as well as cities.

===L1A1 SLR===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L1A1 SLR]] is available to the Rifleman, Grenadier, Radioman, and Commander classes of the Australian Army. Besides different animations and fire sounds, the L1A1 is mostly comparable to the American M14 with a few caveats. It has a bigger sight picture, slightly faster reloads and fires faster in semi-auto.

===XM21 Sniper Weapon System===
The [[M21#M21.2FM25_Sniper_Weapon_System|XM21]] rifle is available to the US Army Marksman. It comes in two variants :

- the Standard variant is a regular M14 fitted with an AR TEL scope.

- the Suppressed variant (added as part of the August 2017 1.03 update) which is fitted with a sound suppressor instead of the standard flash hider, and fires subsonic ammunition, which means that it's action has to be manually operated after each shot, since the lower power ammunition can't cycle the bolt. Alternatively the gas system might have been cut off by the user to avoid the action noise and make the rifle as quiet as possible. The lower velocity ammunition also means constantly changing the zero is neccessary.

Both rifles come with an AR TEL scope with six magnification setting from 3x to 9x. Each magnification setting also has its own zero setting (the higher the magnification, the higher the zero distance), and it is different for the two rifles because of the different ammunition they fire. The Standard variant starts off at 100m and can get to 700m in 100m increments, while the Suppressed variant begins at 50m and can get to 200m in 25m increments. They also have an alternate aiming mode for close range where the player looks over the scope and uses the dials as impromptu sights.
Both rifles come with 3 spare 20-round magazines.

===M40 Sniper Rifle===
The [[M40 Sniper Rifle]] is issued to the USMC Marksman with the equivalent of six stripper clips of spare ammunition, for a total of 30 spare rounds. Its distinctively-finished Redfield scope is elevation-adjustable through 6 settings, from 90 to 550 meters (100 to 600 yards), However, unlike the actual scope, it is not adjustable for magnification but locked to 3x. This means the scope's rangefinder doesn't work even though the necessary reticule markings are correctly featured (see pictures for detailed explanation). The scope also covers up the feeding/ejection port so the M40 must be reloaded with individual rounds. The M40 is mostly comparable to the VC's M91/30, a slower but more precise sniper rifle except this one doesn't have any backup iron sights.

==Machine Guns==

===M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle===
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle]] has been added as the main light machine gun of the ARVN forces. The gun is outdated compared to the VC's DP-28 or RPD.
[[Image:BAR1918.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06.]]

===M1919A6 Browning Machine Gun===
The [[Browning M1919A6]] has been added as the main medium machine gun for the ARVN forces, as their counterpart to the M60. The M1919A6 is the most appropriate LMG in the game in terms of sheer volume of fire. With two whole 150 round belts plus a relatively controllable rate of fire especially when on the bipod, the M1919 is the gun in the game most suited for sustained fire.

===M60 GPMG===
The [[M60]] is the main machine gun of the American forces, and only available to the Machine Gunner. "The Pig" is issued with either three 100-round belt boxes, or a single 200-round belt of 7.62x51mm ammunition, with one in five a tracer. Its rear leaf sight is adjustable for elevation in 100-meter increments, from 400m to 1100m. It also has a bipod usable when prone or behind cover. With a relatively controllable rate of fire, decent stability and easy to read sights, It is flexible enough to be useful for use with either the bipod or off-hand in a more mobile role.

===L2A1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L2A1 machine gun]] is available to the Australian Machine Gunner and is outfitted with a foregrip/bipod hybrid. With the bipod down and mounted, it's a fairly efficient LMG only hampered by the 30-round magazine size, but has the ability to change between semi-auto and full auto.

==Launchers and Flamethrowers==
===M79 Grenade Launcher===
The [[M79]] "Thumper" Grenade Launcher is the only explosive launcher available to the US forces. A variety of 40x46mm ammunition is available for different situations : 6 rounds of High-Explosive and 2 rounds of masking smoke, 6 rounds of HE and another 6 rounds of Buckshot, or simply 9 HE grenades. The HE rounds have a realistic arming distance of about 15 meters : within this range, they won't explode if they hit their target, or a barrier. Unexploded 40mm rounds still so damage, and can kill with a well-placed shot : managing this will earn the player the 'Thumper' achievement. Finally, the M79's rear sight is adjustable for elevation from 50 to 300 meters, in 25 meters increments.

===M18A1 Claymore===
The Marksman has one [[M18A1 Claymore|Claymore mine]], and the Pointman has two. It can be placed on the ground, and then detonated with a M57 switch, sending dozens of deadly fragments in the direction the front of the mine faces.

==Mounted Weapons==

===M2 Browning===
The [[Browning M2HB]] appears in-game as counterpart to the DSHk, both as a tripod mounted HMG in locations as well as a portable version for deploying in the field. The M2HB uses 100-round .50 BMG boxes of ammunition.

=Weapons of the NVA/PAVN and the VC/NLF=
==Sidearms==
===Tokarev TT-33===
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the main sidearm for the North Vietnamese forces. It holds 8 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev per magazine.
[[Image:TT-33.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokarev TT-33 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

===Makarov PM===
Introduced in the 1.03 update on August 2017, the [[Makarov PM]] was made available for Communist forces as an alternative to the TT-33.

==Submachine Guns==
===MAT-49===
The [[MAT-49]] is a usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. Players can choose between the original French 9mm version or the Vietnamese 7.62x25mm Tokarev conversion, the latter has an increased fire rate. The MAT is a very useful SMG for close quarters combat in either version with a potent high rate of fire, relative accuracy and some stability.

[[File:RS2 MAT-49(3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Collapsing the stock.]]

===MP40===
The [[MP40]] was added to the game in Update 1.2 as a submachine gun for the NLF. This serves as a far more controllable but lower volume of fire counter part to the MAT-49 and PPSH.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]

[[File:RS2MP40Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Charging the bolt.]]

===PPSh-41===
The [[PPSh-41]] is another usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, having a much higher fire rate than the [[MAT-49]]. Like in ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'', the PPSh starts off with 35-round magazines, though the original 71-round drum magazines are also available in the loadout screen. The fire selector is also usable on the base weapon. The PPSh is decent with the only problem of the high rate of fire clashing with the small magazine size.

[[File:RS2VPPSHR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the PPSh-41 by inserting a stick mag.]]

==Shotguns==
===IZH-58===
A double-barreled IZH-58 shotgun is usable for the North Vietnamese forces in both full-length, Coach Gun and sawed-off versions. The sawn-off version appears to reload slightly faster and is limited to 00 Buckshot while the Coach Gun and full-length versions are able to use 1oz Slugs in addition to Buckshot.

Weirdly enough, it was called the "IZH-43" in the beta, which was the replacement to the IZH-58 introduced in 1986, then it was renamed the period accurate "IZH-58". However, in a recent update the IZh-58 was painted gloss black and simply dubbed the "SxS shotgun" likely to address the question of how a Soviet double barreled shotgun ends up in the fields of Vietnam.

==Rifles==
===AKM / Type 56 / Type 56-1===
Several AK-pattern rifles grouped under the "[[AK-47]]" classification are available to the Rifleman on the North Vietnamese side :

- the [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]], with its fixed wood stock, 'bakelite' pistol grip, ribbed dust cover and open front sight ring. It accepts a Type II bayonet and is the most average of all the AK variants with relatively accurate fire, controllable full auto fire and overall good performance.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56]], that differs with its wood pistol grip, smooth dust cover, higher full auto fire rate and fully enclosed front sight ring. It also has integrated spike bayonet which can be unfolded.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]] is the underfolding variant of the Type 56. It doesn't have a bayonet but can have the stock folded to make it more compact and less controllable.

All three rifles come with three spare 30-round steel magazines. They can be fired in semi or fully-automatic, and while the fire selector is not animated and stays in the 'Safe' position, for some reason, the hand of the character actually moves down when switching to semi, and moves up when switching to fully-automatic. The rear sight of all the rifles are adjustable for elevation from 100m to 800m in 100-meters increments, which is correct for the Type 56 guns, but not for the AKM which should be able to go up to 1000m.

===MAS-49===
The [[MAS-49]] was added to the game in Update 1.3 in 3 basic flavors. All in all, a punchy battle rifle with good accuracy, power and a fun mix of options such as...

- The standard variant with iron sights, available to scouts and many Early War classes.

- The grenade launcher version, available to the Sapper which allows for the use of 6 HE Rifle Grenades.

- And the Marksman version, which rocks an APX scope and is used by the Marksman.

[[Image:MAS-49-firstmodel.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MAS-49 - 7.5x54mm French]]
[[File:RS2MAS49.jpg|thumb|none|600px|First, it's the humble normal version of the MAS49 rifle.]]

[[File:RS2MAS49Reload1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like the M14, the MAS has a different reload animation for when the gun isn't empty. If so, then a stripper clip will be used to top the gun off.]]

[[File:RS2MAS49GrenadeLauncherKaboom.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With predictable results.]]

===Mosin Nagant M91/30===
The [[Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] is the oldest gun in the game, available to the North Vietnamese factions in both the standard and sniper rifle variants. Rather hilariously, there is an achievement for getting kills with the non-scoped Mosin, fittingly dubbed "It belongs in a museum!". Both Mosin variants are entertainingly powerful in the same "twomp" way that makes the shotguns fun. While the scoped version is a very adequate sniper rifle, the un-scoped one is a slightly less useful rifle that has good accuracy and power and nothing else outside of massive entertainment when you finally kill a guy.

[[File:RS2VSMNR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|And reloading it.]]

===SKS-45===
The [[SKS]] appears as a usable rifle to the PAVN/VC forces. A decent all-arounder rifle, the SKS is mostly used by classes who get either this or a shotgun so if you don't want to be angry Papa-san running around with his hunting gun, here you go.

[[File:RS2 SKS (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A wayward PAVN soldier brass checks his SKS after hearing the sound of distant surf rock.]]

===SVD Dragunov===
The [[SVD Dragunov]] appears as another sniper rifle for the North Vietnamese forces; its semi-automatic operation and box magazines are key advantages over the scoped Mosin-Nagant.

==Machine Guns==
===Degtyaryov DP-28===
The [[DP-28]] from ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'' returns as an available machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. While it might seem useless in comparison to the sheer firepower of the RPD, the DP has the advantage of being relatively controllable straight from the shoulder and coming with more than just 1-2 drums.
[[Image:DP-28.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Degtyaryov DP-28 - 7.62x54mm R]]

[[File:RS2VDPR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading by opening the bolt, swapping pans and smacking the fresh one on.]]

===Degtyaryov RP-46===
The [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], the belt-fed version of the DP-28 was added in Update 1.3 as an alternative to either the RPD or DP-28. What it lacks in total ammo capacity and spare rounds is made up for by allowing high power belt fed covering fire.

[[Image:RP46.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RP-46 - 7.62x54mm R]]

[[File:RS2RP46Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Before closing the cover and charging the gun.]]

===Degtyaryov RPD===
The [[RPD]] appears as the main light machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, serving as a direct counterpart to the M60 with relatively controllable rate of fire, stability and sheer entertainment at folding the bipod up and running straight into battle like a madman. It uses the 100-round drum by default, but a 200-round belt variant was added in Update 1.2.
[[Image:RPD-Light-Machine-Gun.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RPD - 7.62x39mm]]

[[File:RS2VRPDR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the still toasty RPD, a bad idea as this might lead to cook offs.]]

==Launchers==
===RPG-7===
The iconic [[RPG-7]] appears as the main launcher for the North Vietnamese forces, coming with the launcher plus 3 rounds. While it must be aimed before you actually fire, it's impressively decimating against both ground targets and helicopters. In a rare sight seldom seen in video games, there is a rendered backblast upon firing. The entire rear of the launcher becomes deadly for 10m back and can easily kill allies, enemies and yourself if you aren't careful.
[[Image:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]

[[File:RS2VRPGR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the RPG-7 by stuffing a fresh rocket down the tube.]]

==Grenades and Explosives==
===MD-82 Mine===
The North Vietnamese Sapper class comes armed with the MD-82 mine, a copy of the American [[M14 anti-personnel mine]]. Carrying 5 of these little bundles of fun, the MD-82 is really only useful for rigging up entryways as it's famed "toe popping" is rendered in underwhelming detail.

[[File:RS2MD82-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Before pulling the pin, rendering it live.]]

===RGD-1 Smoke Grenade===
The Soviet RGD-1 Smoke Grenade appears as the North Vietnamese smoke grenade of choice, albeit only in white.

[[File:RS2RGD-1-2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like the later pattern RGD-2, the RGD-1 is set off by removing the top cover and striking the top casing.]]

===Type 67 Grenade===
The North Vietnamese forces use the Type 67 as their standard grenade, functioning around the same as the M61.

[[File:RS2Type67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Vietcong soldier shows us his handy Chinese potato masher.]]

==Mounted Weapons==
===DShK Heavy Machine Gun===
Several maps have [[DShK heavy machine gun]] mounted on tripod mounts for the North Vietnamese. Feeding from standard 50-round boxes, the DShK is used both for firing on infantry but especially for anti-air and anti-helicopter roles. A player-deployable version was added in Update 1.2.

The direct sequel to ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Rising Storm]]'', '''''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam''''' brings the intense tactical realism of Tripwire Interactive's ''Red Orchestra'' series into the the Vietnam War, at the height of American involvement, with the notable continuation of asymmetrical faction elements from the previous title (such as the helicopters and air support of the American forces versus the tunnel spawn system of the Vietnamese forces). Both the United States Army and Marine Corps are present in levels based on their respective battles of the war, fighting against either the National Liberation Front (Viet Cong) or the People's Army of Vietnam (North Vietnamese Army). A new feature of this title is the ability for the player to customize the personal appearance of their in-game character, differentiated between the five factions and the additional helicopter pilot class of the US forces.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam (2017)'''''.

As with the previous title, the [[M1911_pistol_series#M1911A1|Colt M1911A1]] is available as a sidearm to most classes in the US forces as well as the ARVN, with the exception of the Grunt, and the Radioman and Combat Engineer on some maps. The Australian Commander class can also use it. It comes with two spare 7-round magazines.

===M1917 Revolver===
Added in the 1.03 update, the [[M1917 Revolver]] is an alternative to the 1911 pistol for South Vietnamese forces issued with a sidearm. It is fired in double-action mode with a significantly long trigger pull and poor accuracy, but the hammer can also be cocked manually before each shot to eliminate the delay and the accuracy penalty. The revolver is loaded using two half-moon clips, and comes with 6 spares for a total of the 3 reloads from empty. It cannot be reloaded if less than three rounds have been fired; the player character never ejects a clip if there are still rounds on it, so if 3 to 5 rounds have been fired, he only ejects the half-moon clip with the spent rounds on it by keeping the other one in place with his palm, and one loaded half-moon clip is placed inside the cylinder. If all the rounds have been fired, both clips are ejected and two new ones are put in place.

===Browning Hi-Power===
Added in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Browning Hi-Power]] is a standard issue pistol of the Australian Army, complete with 13 round magazines and a fully adjustable rear sight. Reliable damage plus relatively low recoil and mags double the size of most of the other handguns on offer make this a popular backup for anyone playing Aussies.

==Submachine Guns==

===M1A1 Thompson===
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] was added as the standard-issue SMG for the ARVN faction in the 1.08 ARVN Update. It comes with 30-round box magazines and can be switched between semi and full-auto fire modes. The M1A1's mostly comparable to the VC's MAT-49, a high rate of fire SMG but still relatively controllable and useful at sweeping through rooms at close quarters. The only real con I can give this one is that it suffers from the same overall low amount of spare mags that effects every SMG in the game.

===M3A1 Grease Gun===
The [[M3 / M3A1 "Grease Gun"|M3A1 Grease Gun]] is available to the Pointman, Combat Engineer, and Commander classes. It is issued with 3 spare magazines, and its wire stock can be collapsed for added maneuvrability in tight spaces which, naturally, also decreases accuracy. The Grease Gun is an entertainingly fun SMG which benefits greatly from its slow rate of fire, making it effective at close to medium range.

===Owen Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Owen Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout and Radioman. Like the M1A1, the Owen's mostly comparable to the VC's choice in SMG's. A fast firing, relatively accurate and somewhat controllable gun for sweeping through trench lines.

===F1 Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[F1 SMG|F1 Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout, Combat Engineer and Commander. While it might seem useless in comparison with it's WWII counterpart, the F1's got a much slower rate of fire over the Owen meaning it's easier to control and keep on target in combat. Plus it comes with a bayonet.

==Shotguns==
===Ithaca Model 37===
The 12-gauge [[Ithaca 37]] pump-action shotgun, used extensively by South Vietnamese in Vietnam, is available to the Pointman and Combat Engineer classes. It comes in three distinct variants :

- the full-size Trench Gun sports wooden furniture, a heat shield, and a bayonet lug which can mount a standard M7 bayonet. It holds 5 shells. The most controllable and simple of all the Ithaca variants, easy to use and easy to run around with in-general.

- the 'Stakeout' Riot Gun is a handier variant, with a pistol grip and no buttstock, that also recoils a lot harder. Note that it isn't an actual 'Stakeout' model : it has a standard 20-inch barrel instead of the shortened 13-inch barrel. A handy shotgun for close quarters maps like Hue City, the Riot Gun's main problem is the lack of an ability to aim down the barrel which is somewhat compensated by the faster ADS time and better maneuverability.

- the 'Duckbill' Conversion is fitted with an extended magazine tube that holds 8 shells, and a muzzle attachment that spreads out fired pellets in a wide, horizontal pattern. While it seems a tad redundant, the Duckbill does have some utility in that it can funnel your shot into a much easier to gauge spread meaning you're less likely to accidentally hit allies with stray pellets. Useful for close quarters maps and areas with pillboxes where a horizontal spread of shot will wipe out whoever is inside.

Both the Trench and Riot Guns are issued with 35 shells of either 00 Buckshot (8 large pellets) or No.4 Buckshot (16 smaller pellets) : the former packs more punch, while the latter increases hit probability at extended ranges because of the sheer number of projectiles. The 'Duckbill' Conversion on the other hand comes with 32 shells of No.4 Buckshot only, to get the most out of its muzzle attachement. It is worth to note that the reload sequence for all the available Model 37 variants is performed incorrecty. When reloading from empty, the player character always puts one shell too many in the magazine tube (5 when there should be 4 for the Trench and Riot Guns, 8 when there should be 7 in the 'Duckbill' Conversion), and does so while the bolt is back so when he racks the action forward, there should be no round in the chamber. And when topping off the magazine tube, he racks the action backward before filling up the magazine tube, which is not only unnecessary but also counter-productive as it ejects an unfired shell.

==Rifles==

===M1/M2 Carbines===
The [[M1 Carbine]] and its fully-automatic variant the [[M2 Carbine]] were added in update 1.07. The M1 Carbine is available to Northern Sappers and Riflemen on some maps and comes with 15-round magazines and a well-worn appearance, while the M2 is available as an alternative primary for US Grenadiers as well as the ARVN Pointman and Rifleman and comes with 30-round magazines and can be toggled between semi-auto and full-auto. The M1 and M2 Carbines are best utilized at close to medium range. The M2 is also a good weapon for very close quarters as the .30 Carbine cartridge is more powerful than any of the SMGs on offer.

===M1 Garand===
The [[M1 Garand]] has been added as the main rifle of the ARVN. The M1D variant is also used by the ARVN as their standard issue sniper rifle. The M1 Garand balances itself nicely against the more modern weapons favored by the PAVN and NLF, however the .30-06's power means that you have better overall accuracy, more power and a faster reload than most of their weapons. As for the M1D, it's an adequate sniper rifle with more flexibility as you can easily swap over to irons sights.

===M16A1 Assault Rifle===
The [[M16A1]] is the assault rifle of the US Rifleman as well as the ARVN Pointman. It comes with seven spare 20-round magazines that actually hold 18 (a common practice to avoid magazine-related malfunctions), accepts a bayonet, and both the short-range and long-range apertures are usable. The M16 is one of the most effective weapons in the game.

[[File:M16A1 bayonet.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like most other rifles in the game, you can mount a bayonet.]]

===M14 Rifle===
The [[M14]] rifle is a large-caliber alternative to the M16 for US Grunts and Radiomen, and is the only rifle available to the Commander role. It is capable of mounting a bayonet, and is issued with five spare 20-round magazines that can be topped off using 5-round stripper clips. Its rear sight can be adjusted for elevation through five settings, from 91 meters all the way up to 457 meters (100 to 500 yards). Although the real-life M14 is select-fire, the in-game version can only be fired in semi-automatic mode (as was common practice during the Vietnam conflict).

===XM177E1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[M16_rifle_series#Colt_XM177.2FCAR-15.2FCommando_Series|XM177E1]] is available to the US Army. The player can adjust the length of the stock which makes the iron sight picture larger and makes the weapon more compact at a cost of controllability on full-auto. The XM177 bridges the gap between the full size M16A1 and the Grease Gun in a very good way, allowing the same power and relative accuracy of the M16 in a size thats useful for tight trenches and tunnels as well as cities.

===L1A1 SLR===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L1A1 SLR]] is available to the Rifleman, Grenadier, Radioman, and Commander classes of the Australian Army. Besides different animations and fire sounds, the L1A1 is mostly comparable to the American M14 with a few caveats. It has a bigger sight picture, slightly faster reloads and fires faster in semi-auto.

===XM21 Sniper Weapon System===
The [[M21#M21.2FM25_Sniper_Weapon_System|XM21]] rifle is available to the US Army Marksman. It comes in two variants :

- the Standard variant is a regular M14 fitted with an AR TEL scope.

- the Suppressed variant (added as part of the August 2017 1.03 update) which is fitted with a sound suppressor instead of the standard flash hider, and fires subsonic ammunition, which means that it's action has to be manually operated after each shot, since the lower power ammunition can't cycle the bolt. Alternatively the gas system might have been cut off by the user to avoid the action noise and make the rifle as quiet as possible. The lower velocity ammunition also means constantly changing the zero is neccessary.

Both rifles come with an AR TEL scope with six magnification setting from 3x to 9x. Each magnification setting also has its own zero setting (the higher the magnification, the higher the zero distance), and it is different for the two rifles because of the different ammunition they fire. The Standard variant starts off at 100m and can get to 700m in 100m increments, while the Suppressed variant begins at 50m and can get to 200m in 25m increments. They also have an alternate aiming mode for close range where the player looks over the scope and uses the dials as impromptu sights.
Both rifles come with 3 spare 20-round magazines.

===M40 Sniper Rifle===
The [[M40 Sniper Rifle]] is issued to the USMC Marksman with the equivalent of six stripper clips of spare ammunition, for a total of 30 spare rounds. Its distinctively-finished Redfield scope is elevation-adjustable through 6 settings, from 90 to 550 meters (100 to 600 yards), However, unlike the actual scope, it is not adjustable for magnification but locked to 3x. This means the scope's rangefinder doesn't work even though the necessary reticule markings are correctly featured (see pictures for detailed explanation). The scope also covers up the feeding/ejection port so the M40 must be reloaded with individual rounds. The M40 is mostly comparable to the VC's M91/30, a slower but more precise sniper rifle except this one doesn't have any backup iron sights.

==Machine Guns==

===M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle===
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle]] has been added as the main light machine gun of the ARVN forces. The gun is outdated compared to the VC's DP-28 or RPD.

===M1919A6 Browning Machine Gun===
The [[Browning M1919A6]] has been added as the main medium machine gun for the ARVN forces, as their counterpart to the M60. The M1919A6 is the most appropriate LMG in the game in terms of sheer volume of fire. With two whole 150 round belts plus a relatively controllable rate of fire especially when on the bipod, the M1919 is the gun in the game most suited for sustained fire.

===M60 GPMG===
The [[M60]] is the main machine gun of the American forces, and only available to the Machine Gunner. "The Pig" is issued with either three 100-round belt boxes, or a single 200-round belt of 7.62x51mm ammunition, with one in five a tracer. Its rear leaf sight is adjustable for elevation in 100-meter increments, from 400m to 1100m. It also has a bipod usable when prone or behind cover. With a relatively controllable rate of fire, decent stability and easy to read sights, It is flexible enough to be useful for use with either the bipod or off-hand in a more mobile role.

===L2A1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L2A1 machine gun]] is available to the Australian Machine Gunner and is outfitted with a foregrip/bipod hybrid. With the bipod down and mounted, it's a fairly efficient LMG only hampered by the 30-round magazine size, but has the ability to change between semi-auto and full auto.

==Launchers and Flamethrowers==
===M79 Grenade Launcher===
The [[M79]] "Thumper" Grenade Launcher is the only explosive launcher available to the US forces. A variety of 40x46mm ammunition is available for different situations : 6 rounds of High-Explosive and 2 rounds of masking smoke, 6 rounds of HE and another 6 rounds of Buckshot, or simply 9 HE grenades. The HE rounds have a realistic arming distance of about 15 meters : within this range, they won't explode if they hit their target, or a barrier. Unexploded 40mm rounds still so damage, and can kill with a well-placed shot : managing this will earn the player the 'Thumper' achievement. Finally, the M79's rear sight is adjustable for elevation from 50 to 300 meters, in 25 meters increments.

=Weapons of the NVA/PAVN and the VC/NLF=
==Sidearms==
===Tokarev TT-33===
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the main sidearm for the North Vietnamese forces. It holds 8 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev per magazine.
[[Image:TT-33.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokarev TT-33 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Submachine Guns==
===MAT-49===
The [[MAT-49]] is a usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. Players can choose between the original French 9mm version or the Vietnamese 7.62x25mm Tokarev conversion, the latter has an increased fire rate. The MAT is a very useful SMG for close quarters combat in either version with a potent high rate of fire, relative accuracy and some stability.

[[File:RS2 MAT-49(3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Collapsing the stock.]]

===MP40===
The [[MP40]] was added to the game in Update 1.2 as a submachine gun for the NLF. This serves as a far more controllable but lower volume of fire counter part to the MAT-49 and PPSH.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]

[[File:RS2MP40Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Charging the bolt.]]

===PPSh-41===
The [[PPSh-41]] is another usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, having a much higher fire rate than the [[MAT-49]]. Like in ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'', the PPSh starts off with 35-round magazines, though the original 71-round drum magazines are also available in the loadout screen. The fire selector is also usable on the base weapon. The PPSh is decent with the only problem of the high rate of fire clashing with the small magazine size.

==Shotguns==
===IZH-58===
A double-barreled IZH-58 shotgun is usable for the North Vietnamese forces in both full-length, Coach Gun and sawed-off versions. The sawn-off version appears to reload slightly faster and is limited to 00 Buckshot while the Coach Gun and full-length versions are able to use 1oz Slugs in addition to Buckshot.

Weirdly enough, it was called the "IZH-43" in the beta, which was the replacement to the IZH-58 introduced in 1986, then it was renamed the period accurate "IZH-58". However, in a recent update the IZh-58 was painted gloss black and simply dubbed the "SxS shotgun" likely to address the question of how a Soviet double barreled shotgun ends up in the fields of Vietnam.

==Rifles==
===AKM / Type 56 / Type 56-1===
Several AK-pattern rifles grouped under the "[[AK-47]]" classification are available to the Rifleman on the North Vietnamese side :

- the [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]], with its fixed wood stock, 'bakelite' pistol grip, ribbed dust cover and open front sight ring. It accepts a Type II bayonet and is the most average of all the AK variants with relatively accurate fire, controllable full auto fire and overall good performance.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56]], that differs with its wood pistol grip, smooth dust cover, higher full auto fire rate and fully enclosed front sight ring. It also has integrated spike bayonet which can be unfolded.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]] is the underfolding variant of the Type 56. It doesn't have a bayonet but can have the stock folded to make it more compact and less controllable.

All three rifles come with three spare 30-round steel magazines. They can be fired in semi or fully-automatic, and while the fire selector is not animated and stays in the 'Safe' position, for some reason, the hand of the character actually moves down when switching to semi, and moves up when switching to fully-auto, which is some welcome attention to detail. The rear sight of all the rifles are adjustable for elevation from 100m to 800m in 100-meters increments, which is correct for the Type 56 guns, but not for the AKM which should be able to go up to 1000m.

===MAS-49===
The [[MAS-49]] was added to the game in Update 1.3 in 3 basic flavors. All in all, a punchy battle rifle with good accuracy, power and a fun mix of options such as...

- The standard variant with iron sights, available to scouts and many Early War classes.

- The grenade launcher version, available to the Sapper which allows for the use of 6 HE Rifle Grenades.

- And the Marksman version, which rocks an APX scope and is used by the Marksman.

[[Image:MAS-49-firstmodel.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MAS-49 - 7.5x54mm French]]

[[File:RS2MAS49GrenadeLauncherKaboom.jpg|thumb|none|600px|With predictable results.]]

===Mosin Nagant M91/30===
The [[Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] is the oldest gun in the game, available to the North Vietnamese factions in both the standard and sniper rifle variants. Rather hilariously, there is an achievement for getting kills with the non-scoped Mosin, fittingly dubbed "It belongs in a museum!". Both Mosin variants are entertainingly powerful in the same "twomp" way that makes the shotguns fun. While the scoped version is a very adequate sniper rifle, the un-scoped one is a slightly less useful rifle that has good accuracy and power and nothing else outside of massive entertainment when you finally kill a guy.

===SKS-45===
The [[SKS]] appears as a usable rifle to the PAVN/VC forces. A decent all-arounder rifle, the SKS is mostly used by classes who get either this or a shotgun so if you don't want to be angry Papa-san running around with his hunting gun, here you go.

[[File:RS2 SKS (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A wayward PAVN soldier brass checks his SKS after hearing the sound of distant surf rock.]]

===SVD Dragunov===
The [[SVD Dragunov]] appears as another sniper rifle for the North Vietnamese forces; its semi-automatic operation and box magazines are key advantages over the scoped Mosin-Nagant.

==Machine Guns==
===Degtyaryov DP-28===
The [[DP-28]] from ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'' returns as an available machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. While it might seem useless in comparison to the sheer firepower of the RPD, the DP has the advantage of being relatively controllable straight from the shoulder and coming with more than just 1-2 drums.
[[Image:DP-28.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Degtyaryov DP-28 - 7.62x54mm R]]

===Degtyaryov RP-46===
The [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], the belt-fed version of the DP-28 was added in Update 1.3 as an alternative to either the RPD or DP-28. What it lacks in total ammo capacity and spare rounds is made up for by allowing high power belt fed covering fire.

[[File:RS2RP46Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Before closing the cover and charging the gun.]]

===Degtyaryov RPD===
The [[RPD]] appears as the main light machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, serving as a direct counterpart to the M60 with relatively controllable rate of fire, stability and sheer entertainment at folding the bipod up and running straight into battle like a madman. It uses the 100-round drum by default, but a 200-round belt variant was added in Update 1.2.

[[File:RS2VRPDR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the still toasty RPD, a bad idea as this might lead to cook offs.]]

==Launchers==
===RPG-7===
The iconic [[RPG-7]] appears as the main launcher for the North Vietnamese forces, coming with the launcher plus 3 rounds. While it must be aimed before you actually fire, it's impressively decimating against both ground targets and helicopters. In a rare sight seldom seen in video games, there is a rendered backblast upon firing. The entire rear of the launcher becomes deadly for 10m back and can easily kill allies, enemies and yourself if you aren't careful.

==Grenades and Explosives==
===MD-82 Mine===
The North Vietnamese Sapper class comes armed with the MD-82 mine, a copy of the American [[M14 anti-personnel mine]]. Carrying 5 of these little bundles of fun, the MD-82 is really only useful for rigging up entryways as it's famed "toe popping" is rendered in underwhelming detail.

===RGD-1 Smoke Grenade===
The Soviet RGD-1 Smoke Grenade appears as the North Vietnamese smoke grenade of choice, albeit only in white.

===Type 67 Grenade===
The North Vietnamese forces use the Type 67 as their standard grenade, functioning around the same as the M61.

==Mounted Weapons==
===DShK Heavy Machine Gun===
Several maps have [[DShK heavy machine gun]] mounted on tripod mounts for the North Vietnamese. Feeding from standard 50-round boxes, the DShK is used both for firing on infantry but especially for anti-air and anti-helicopter roles. A player-deployable version was added in Update 1.2.

The direct sequel to ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Rising Storm]]'', '''''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam''''' brings the intense tactical realism of Tripwire Interactive's ''Red Orchestra'' series into the the Vietnam War, at the height of American involvement, with the notable continuation of asymmetrical faction elements from the previous title (such as the helicopters and air support of the American forces versus the tunnel spawn system of the Vietnamese forces). Both the United States Army and Marine Corps are present in levels based on their respective battles of the war, fighting against either the National Liberation Front (Viet Cong) or the People's Army of Vietnam (North Vietnamese Army). A new feature of this title is the ability for the player to customize the personal appearance of their in-game character, differentiated between the five factions and the additional helicopter pilot class of the US forces.

'''The following weapons appear in the video game ''Rising Storm 2: Vietnam (2017)'''''.

__TOC__ 

=Weapons of the US Army, USMC, ARVN and the Australian Army=
==Sidearms==
===Colt M1911A1===
As with the previous title, the [[M1911_pistol_series#M1911A1|Colt M1911A1]] is available as a sidearm to most classes in the US forces as well as the ARVN, with the exception of the Grunt, and the Radioman and Combat Engineer on some maps. The Australian Commander class can also use it. It comes with two spare 7-round magazines.
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]

===M1917 Revolver===
Added in the 1.03 update, the [[M1917 Revolver]] is an alternative to the 1911 pistol for South Vietnamese forces issued with a sidearm. It is fired in double-action mode with a significantly long trigger pull and poor accuracy, but the hammer can also be cocked manually before each shot to eliminate the delay and the accuracy penalty. The revolver is loaded using two half-moon clips, and comes with 6 spares for a total of the 3 reloads from empty. It cannot be reloaded if less than three rounds have been fired; the player character never ejects a clip if there are still rounds on it, so if 3 to 5 rounds have been fired, he only ejects the half-moon clip with the spent rounds on it by keeping the other one in place with his palm, and one loaded half-moon clip is placed inside the cylinder. If all the rounds have been fired, both clips are ejected and two new ones are put in place.

[[File:M1917 cocking the hammer.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The hammer can be cocked manually to fire the revolver in single-action mode, which gives an accuracy boost.]]

===Browning Hi-Power===
Added in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Browning Hi-Power]] is a standard issue pistol of the Australian Army, complete with 13 round magazines and a fully adjustable rear sight. Reliable damage plus relatively low recoil and mags double the size of most of the other handguns on offer make this a popular backup for anyone playing Aussies.

==Submachine Guns==

===M1A1 Thompson===
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] was added as the standard-issue SMG for the ARVN faction in the 1.08 ARVN Update. It comes with 30-round box magazines and can be switched between semi and full-auto fire modes. The M1A1's mostly comparable to the VC's MAT-49, a high rate of fire SMG but still relatively controllable and useful at sweeping through rooms at close quarters. The only real con I can give this one is that it suffers from the same overall low amount of spare mags that effects every SMG in the game.

===M3A1 Grease Gun===
The [[M3 / M3A1 "Grease Gun"|M3A1 Grease Gun]] is available to the Pointman, Combat Engineer, and Commander classes. It is issued with 3 spare magazines, and its wire stock can be collapsed for added maneuvrability in tight spaces which, naturally, also decreases accuracy. The Grease Gun is an entertainingly fun SMG which benefits greatly from its slow rate of fire, making it effective at close to medium range.

===Owen Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[Owen Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout and Radioman. Like the M1A1, the Owen's mostly comparable to the VC's choice in SMG's. A fast firing, relatively accurate and somewhat controllable gun for sweeping through trench lines.

[[File:RS2V Owen Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Before ending it with a swift tug of the rear-mounted charging handle.]]

===F1 Submachine Gun===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[F1 SMG|F1 Submachine Gun]] is available to the Australian Scout, Combat Engineer and Commander. While it might seem useless in comparison with it's WWII counterpart, the F1's got a much slower rate of fire over the Owen meaning it's easier to control and keep on target in combat. Plus it comes with a bayonet.

==Shotguns==
===Ithaca Model 37===
The 12-gauge [[Ithaca 37]] pump-action shotgun, used extensively by South Vietnamese in Vietnam, is available to the Pointman and Combat Engineer classes. It comes in three distinct variants :

- the full-size Trench Gun sports wooden furniture, a heat shield, and a bayonet lug which can mount a standard M7 bayonet. It holds 5 shells. The most controllable and simple of all the Ithaca variants, easy to use and easy to run around with in-general.

- the 'Stakeout' Riot Gun is a handier variant, with a pistol grip and no buttstock, that also recoils a lot harder. Note that it isn't an actual 'Stakeout' model : it has a standard 20-inch barrel instead of the shortened 13-inch barrel. A handy shotgun for close quarters maps like Hue City, the Riot Gun's main problem is the lack of an ability to aim down the barrel which is somewhat compensated by the faster ADS time and better maneuverability.

- the 'Duckbill' Conversion is fitted with an extended magazine tube that holds 8 shells, and a muzzle attachment that spreads out fired pellets in a wide, horizontal pattern. While it seems a tad redundant, the Duckbill does have some utility in that it can funnel your shot into a much easier to gauge spread meaning you're less likely to accidentally hit allies with stray pellets. Useful for close quarters maps and areas with pillboxes where a horizontal spread of shot will wipe out whoever is inside.

Both the Trench and Riot Guns are issued with 35 shells of either 00 Buckshot (8 large pellets) or No.4 Buckshot (16 smaller pellets) : the former packs more punch, while the latter increases hit probability at extended ranges because of the sheer number of projectiles. The 'Duckbill' Conversion on the other hand comes with 32 shells of No.4 Buckshot only, to get the most out of its muzzle attachement. It is worth to note that the reload sequence for all the available Model 37 variants is performed incorrecty. When reloading from empty, the player character always puts one shell too many in the magazine tube (5 when there should be 4 for the Trench and Riot Guns, 8 when there should be 7 in the 'Duckbill' Conversion), and does so while the bolt is back so when he racks the action forward, there should be no round in the chamber. And when topping off the magazine tube, he racks the action backward before filling up the magazine tube, which is not only unnecessary but also counter-productive as it ejects an unfired shell.

==Rifles==

===M1/M2 Carbines===
The [[M1 Carbine]] and its fully-automatic variant the [[M2 Carbine]] were added in update 1.07. The M1 Carbine is available to Northern Sappers and Riflemen on some maps and comes with 15-round magazines and a well-worn appearance, while the M2 is available as an alternative primary for US Grenadiers as well as the ARVN Pointman and Rifleman and comes with 30-round magazines and can be toggled between semi-auto and full-auto. The M1 and M2 Carbines are best utilized at close to medium range. The M2 is also a good weapon for very close quarters as the .30 Carbine cartridge is more powerful than any of the SMGs on offer.

[[Image:RS2 M2 reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the M2. The bolt being open is partially correct, the 30 rounders do hold the bolt open but only when the mag is in the gun, a later update fixed this.]]

===M1 Garand===
The [[M1 Garand]] has been added as the main rifle of the ARVN. The M1D variant is also used by the ARVN as their standard issue sniper rifle. The M1 Garand balances itself nicely against the more modern weapons favored by the PAVN and NLF, however the .30-06's power means that you have better overall accuracy, more power and a faster reload than most of their weapons. As for the M1D, it's an adequate sniper rifle with more flexibility as you can easily swap over to irons sights.

===M16A1 Assault Rifle===
The [[M16A1]] is the assault rifle of the US Rifleman as well as the ARVN Pointman. It comes with seven spare 20-round magazines that actually hold 18 (a common practice to avoid magazine-related malfunctions), accepts a bayonet, and both the short-range and long-range apertures are usable. The M16 is one of the most effective weapons in the game.

[[File:M16A1 bayonet.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Like most other rifles in the game, you can mount a bayonet.]]

===M14 Rifle===
The [[M14]] rifle is a large-caliber alternative to the M16 for US Grunts and Radiomen, and is the only rifle available to the Commander role. It is capable of mounting a bayonet, and is issued with five spare 20-round magazines that can be topped off using 5-round stripper clips. Its rear sight can be adjusted for elevation through five settings, from 91 meters all the way up to 457 meters (100 to 500 yards). Although the real-life M14 is select-fire, the in-game version can only be fired in semi-automatic mode (as was common practice during the Vietnam conflict).

===XM177E1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[M16_rifle_series#Colt_XM177.2FCAR-15.2FCommando_Series|XM177E1]] is available to the US Army. The player can adjust the length of the stock which makes the iron sight picture larger and makes the weapon more compact at a cost of controllability on full-auto. The XM177 bridges the gap between the full size M16A1 and the Grease Gun in a very good way, allowing the same power and relative accuracy of the M16 in a size thats useful for tight trenches and tunnels as well as cities.

===L1A1 SLR===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L1A1 SLR]] is available to the Rifleman, Grenadier, Radioman, and Commander classes of the Australian Army. Besides different animations and fire sounds, the L1A1 is mostly comparable to the American M14 with a few caveats. It has a bigger sight picture, slightly faster reloads and fires faster in semi-auto.

===XM21 Sniper Weapon System===
The [[M21#M21.2FM25_Sniper_Weapon_System|XM21]] rifle is available to the US Army Marksman. It comes in two variants :

- the Standard variant is a regular M14 fitted with an AR TEL scope.

- the Suppressed variant (added as part of the August 2017 1.03 update) which is fitted with a sound suppressor instead of the standard flash hider, and fires subsonic ammunition, which means that it's action has to be manually operated after each shot, since the lower power ammunition can't cycle the bolt. Alternatively the gas system might have been cut off by the user to avoid the action noise and make the rifle as quiet as possible. The lower velocity ammunition also means constantly changing the zero is neccessary.

Both rifles come with an AR TEL scope with six magnification setting from 3x to 9x. Each magnification setting also has its own zero setting (the higher the magnification, the higher the zero distance), and it is different for the two rifles because of the different ammunition they fire. The Standard variant starts off at 100m and can get to 700m in 100m increments, while the Suppressed variant begins at 50m and can get to 200m in 25m increments. They also have an alternate aiming mode for close range where the player looks over the scope and uses the dials as impromptu sights.
Both rifles come with 3 spare 20-round magazines.

===M40 Sniper Rifle===
The [[M40 Sniper Rifle]] is issued to the USMC Marksman with the equivalent of six stripper clips of spare ammunition, for a total of 30 spare rounds. Its distinctively-finished Redfield scope is elevation-adjustable through 6 settings, from 90 to 550 meters (100 to 600 yards), However, unlike the actual scope, it is not adjustable for magnification but locked to 3x. This means the scope's rangefinder doesn't work even though the necessary reticule markings are correctly featured (see pictures for detailed explanation). The scope also covers up the feeding/ejection port so the M40 must be reloaded with individual rounds. The M40 is mostly comparable to the VC's M91/30, a slower but more precise sniper rifle except this one doesn't have any backup iron sights.

==Machine Guns==

===M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle===
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle]] has been added as the main light machine gun of the ARVN forces. The gun is outdated compared to the VC's DP-28 or RPD.

===M1919A6 Browning Machine Gun===
The [[Browning M1919A6]] has been added as the main medium machine gun for the ARVN forces, as their counterpart to the M60. The M1919A6 is the most appropriate LMG in the game in terms of sheer volume of fire. With two whole 150 round belts plus a relatively controllable rate of fire especially when on the bipod, the M1919 is the gun in the game most suited for sustained fire.

===M60 GPMG===
The [[M60]] is the main machine gun of the American forces, and only available to the Machine Gunner. "The Pig" is issued with either three 100-round belt boxes, or a single 200-round belt of 7.62x51mm ammunition, with one in five a tracer. Its rear leaf sight is adjustable for elevation in 100-meter increments, from 400m to 1100m. It also has a bipod usable when prone or behind cover. With a relatively controllable rate of fire, decent stability and easy to read sights, It is flexible enough to be useful for use with either the bipod or off-hand in a more mobile role.

===L2A1===
Introduced in the 1.05 "Bushranger" content update, the [[FN_FAL#L1A1|L2A1 machine gun]] is available to the Australian Machine Gunner and is outfitted with a foregrip/bipod hybrid. With the bipod down and mounted, it's a fairly efficient LMG only hampered by the 30-round magazine size, but has the ability to change between semi-auto and full auto.

==Launchers and Flamethrowers==
===M79 Grenade Launcher===
The [[M79]] "Thumper" Grenade Launcher is the only explosive launcher available to the US forces. A variety of 40x46mm ammunition is available for different situations : 6 rounds of High-Explosive and 2 rounds of masking smoke, 6 rounds of HE and another 6 rounds of Buckshot, or simply 9 HE grenades. The HE rounds have a realistic arming distance of about 15 meters : within this range, they won't explode if they hit their target, or a barrier. Unexploded 40mm rounds still so damage, and can kill with a well-placed shot : managing this will earn the player the 'Thumper' achievement. Finally, the M79's rear sight is adjustable for elevation from 50 to 300 meters, in 25 meters increments.

===M18A1 Claymore===
The Marksman has one [[M18A1 Claymore|Claymore mine]], and the Pointman has two. It can be placed on the ground, and then detonated with a M57 switch, sending dozens of deadly fragments in the direction the front of the mine faces.

==Mounted Weapons==

===M2 Browning===
The [[Browning M2HB]] appears in-game as counterpart to the DSHk, both as a tripod mounted HMG in locations as well as a portable version for deploying in the field. The M2HB uses 100-round .50 BMG boxes of ammunition.

=Weapons of the NVA/PAVN and the VC/NLF=
==Sidearms==
===Tokarev TT-33===
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the main sidearm for the North Vietnamese forces. It holds 8 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev per magazine.
[[Image:TT-33.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokarev TT-33 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Submachine Guns==
===MAT-49===
The [[MAT-49]] is a usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. Players can choose between the original French 9mm version or the Vietnamese 7.62x25mm Tokarev conversion, the latter has an increased fire rate. The MAT is a very useful SMG for close quarters combat in either version with a potent high rate of fire, relative accuracy and some stability.

[[File:RS2 MAT-49(3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Collapsing the stock.]]

===MP40===
The [[MP40]] was added to the game in Update 1.2 as a submachine gun for the NLF. This serves as a far more controllable but lower volume of fire counter part to the MAT-49 and PPSH.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]

[[File:RS2MP40Reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Charging the bolt.]]

===PPSh-41===
The [[PPSh-41]] is another usable submachine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, having a much higher fire rate than the [[MAT-49]]. Like in ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'', the PPSh starts off with 35-round magazines, though the original 71-round drum magazines are also available in the loadout screen. The fire selector is also usable on the base weapon. The PPSh is decent with the only problem of the high rate of fire clashing with the small magazine size.

==Shotguns==
===IZH-58===
A double-barreled IZH-58 shotgun is usable for the North Vietnamese forces in both full-length, Coach Gun and sawed-off versions. The sawn-off version appears to reload slightly faster and is limited to 00 Buckshot while the Coach Gun and full-length versions are able to use 1oz Slugs in addition to Buckshot. While accuracy decreases, every flavor of the IZH is brutally efficent, while the sawn off becomes useless outside of 25 yards, the full length can hit targets well in excess of 75 yards and more, especially when you use slugs.

Weirdly enough, it was called the "IZH-43" in the beta, which was the replacement to the IZH-58 introduced in 1986, then it was renamed the period accurate "IZH-58". However, in a recent update the IZh-58 was painted gloss black and simply dubbed the "SxS shotgun" likely to address the question of how a Soviet double barreled shotgun ends up in the fields of Vietnam.

==Rifles==
===AKM / Type 56 / Type 56-1===
Several AK-pattern rifles grouped under the "[[AK-47]]" classification are available to the Rifleman on the North Vietnamese side :

- the [[AK-47#AKM|AKM]], with its fixed wood stock, 'bakelite' pistol grip, ribbed dust cover and open front sight ring. It accepts a Type II bayonet and is the most average of all the AK variants with relatively accurate fire, controllable full auto fire and overall good performance.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56]], that differs with its wood pistol grip, smooth dust cover, higher full auto fire rate and fully enclosed front sight ring. It also has integrated spike bayonet which can be unfolded.

- the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]] is the underfolding variant of the Type 56. It doesn't have a bayonet but can have the stock folded to make it more compact and less controllable.

All three rifles come with three spare 30-round steel magazines. They can be fired in semi or fully-automatic, and while the fire selector is not animated and stays in the 'Safe' position, for some reason, the hand of the character actually moves down when switching to semi, and moves up when switching to fully-auto, which is some welcome attention to detail. The rear sight of all the rifles are adjustable for elevation from 100m to 800m in 100-meters increments, which is correct for the Type 56 guns, but not for the AKM which should be able to go up to 1000m.

===MAS-49===
The [[MAS-49]] was added to the game in Update 1.3 in 3 basic flavors. All in all, a punchy battle rifle with good accuracy, power and a fun mix of options such as...

- The standard variant with iron sights, available to scouts and many Early War classes.

- The grenade launcher version, available to the Sapper which allows for the use of 6 HE Rifle Grenades.

- And the Marksman version, which rocks an APX scope and is used by the Marksman.

===Mosin Nagant M91/30===
The [[Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] is the oldest gun in the game, available to the North Vietnamese factions in both the standard and sniper rifle variants. Rather hilariously, there is an achievement for getting kills with the non-scoped Mosin, fittingly dubbed "It belongs in a museum!". Both Mosin variants are entertainingly powerful in the same "twomp" way that makes the shotguns fun. While the scoped version is a very adequate sniper rifle, the un-scoped one is a slightly less useful rifle that has good accuracy and power and nothing else outside of massive entertainment when you finally kill a guy.

===SKS-45===
The [[SKS]] appears as a usable rifle to the PAVN/VC forces. A decent all-arounder rifle, the SKS is mostly used by classes who get either this or a shotgun so if you don't want to be angry Papa-san running around with his hunting gun, here you go.

===SVD Dragunov===
The [[SVD Dragunov]] appears as another sniper rifle for the North Vietnamese forces; its semi-automatic operation and box magazines are key advantages over the scoped Mosin-Nagant.

==Machine Guns==
===Degtyaryov DP-28===
The [[DP-28]] from ''[[Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad|Red Orchestra 2]]'' returns as an available machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces. While it might seem useless in comparison to the sheer firepower of the RPD, the DP has the advantage of being relatively controllable straight from the shoulder and coming with more than just 1-2 drums.

===Degtyaryov RP-46===
The [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], the belt-fed version of the DP-28 was added in Update 1.3 as an alternative to either the RPD or DP-28. What it lacks in total ammo capacity and spare rounds is made up for by allowing high power belt fed covering fire.

===Degtyaryov RPD===
The [[RPD]] appears as the main light machine gun for the North Vietnamese forces, serving as a direct counterpart to the M60 with relatively controllable rate of fire, stability and sheer entertainment at folding the bipod up and running straight into battle like a madman. It uses the 100-round drum by default, but a 200-round belt variant was added in Update 1.2.

==Launchers==
===RPG-7===
The iconic [[RPG-7]] appears as the main launcher for the North Vietnamese forces, coming with the launcher plus 3 rounds. While it must be aimed before you actually fire, it's impressively decimating against both ground targets and helicopters. In a rare sight seldom seen in video games, there is a rendered backblast upon firing. The entire rear of the launcher becomes deadly for 10m back and can easily kill allies, enemies and yourself if you aren't careful.

==Grenades and Explosives==
===MD-82 Mine===
The North Vietnamese Sapper class comes armed with the MD-82 mine, a copy of the American [[M14 anti-personnel mine]]. Carrying 5 of these little bundles of fun, the MD-82 is really only useful for rigging up entryways as it's famed "toe popping" is rendered in underwhelming detail.

===RGD-1 Smoke Grenade===
The Soviet RGD-1 Smoke Grenade appears as the North Vietnamese smoke grenade of choice, albeit only in white.

===Type 67 Grenade===
The North Vietnamese forces use the Type 67 as their standard grenade, functioning around the same as the M61.

==Mounted Weapons==
===DShK Heavy Machine Gun===
Several maps have [[DShK heavy machine gun]] mounted on tripod mounts for the North Vietnamese. Feeding from standard 50-round boxes, the DShK is used both for firing on infantry but especially for anti-air and anti-helicopter roles. A player-deployable version was added in Update 1.2.
