(Okay, so... the shotgun has no resemblance, functionally or mechanically, to either the M1897 or KSG other than it has wood parts and a heatshield. The KSG has two magazine tubes and one barrel and is a bullpup shotgun, the RTJ12 is not. The grenade launcher is most likely based on the M203 rather than the CM203. And please put categories when you make a page.)

Alien Removal Division (or A.R.D) is a free-movement first-person shooter with a focus on speedrunning developed by Enchanted Bean Studios and published by Breda University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands. As the name suggests, the game mainly consists of killing aliens who have invaded an underground science complex as "Subject 34", a Doomguy inspired super soldier. The game seems to take place in an alternate 1950s setting inspired by retrofuturism with some dieselpunk elements.

The game was released for free on Steam on June 17, 2022.


The following weapons appear in the video game Alien Removal Division:


"RTJ12 Shotgun"

A freakish double barreled pump-action shotgun appears as the "RTJ12"; it's the starting weapon and the only shotgun in the game. It features an 8-round tube magazine and reloads two shells at a time. Its alt-fire mode has the protagonist pump the pump handle multiple times to "charge up" shells before firing up to the entire magazine in full-auto.

Visually, it is a fictional weapon with a foreend that vaguely resembles the one from an Ithaca 37 with a heatshield atop both barrels. From a mechanical standpoint, as double barreled pump-action shotgun with two magazine tubes, it is similar to the Standard Manufacturing DP-12, although the RTJ12 must be pumped after every shot (with each shot consuming a single shell, so it does not fire both barrels at once) and does not have a bullpup layout, instead loading from the bottom like a traditional fixed magazine tube shotgun.

Not to be deterred by these questions, 34 chooses the latter and reloads his shotgun, two shells at a time. An engraving stating "We Will Never Surrender" appears on the reciever.

"AR-42"

A highly stylized hybrid of the AR-10 and M16 appears in-game as the "AR-42". It shares the wooden furniture and top-mounted charging handle underneath the carry handle of an original AR-10 battle rifle with the handguard of the "Sudanese" model, and features the lower receiver, barrel, and front iron sights of an M16 with a 30-round STANAG magazine, despite holding 42 rounds in-game. It also comes with an underbarrel M203 grenade launcher.
