==SIG-Sauer P226==
Nacho ([[Michael Mando]]) continues to use a [[SIG-Sauer P226]] in Season 5. He tries to reach it when Gus' men attack him at night in "50% Off" (S5E02). Most of Gus's Sicarios use a [[SIG-Sauer P226]] as a sidearm during the siege of Lalo's hacienda in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10).

==Smith & Wesson M&Pc Compact==
A Colombian gang member nicknamed Jefe ([[Gabriel 'G-Rod' Rodriguez]]) briefly uses a [[Smith & Wesson M&Pc Compact]] during the ambush in "Bagman" (S5E08). When the shots stop, Saul ([[Bob Odenkirk]]) picks up his gun, but leaves it upon realizing it is empty. The gun is anachronistic for the 2004 setting as it was introduced in 2005.

==Smith & Wesson Sigma SW9VE==
Gus' high-ranking enforcer Victor ([[Jeremiah Bitsui]]) continues to carry a two-tone [[Smith & Wesson Sigma SW9VE]] as his primary weapon during the season. But this time, he uses it only once in "50% Off" (S5E02) while threatening Nacho's father.

[[File:BCS S05E08 02.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The shotgun stands next to the Cartel member at the gate.]]

==Mossberg 500 Cruiser (Custom Shortened)==
A Cartel member in a stash house is armed with a custom [[Mossberg 500 Cruiser]] with an [[MP5K]] foregrip, the same one seen in [[Better Call Saul - Season 3|Season 3]], at the beginning of "Bagman" (S5E08).
[[File:Moss500shorty.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Mossberg 500 Cruiser with MP5K foregrip - 12 gauge]]

==Stevens Model 67 (Sawed-Off)==
Krazy-8's dealer named Mouse ([[Adrienne Lovette]]) is armed with a sawed-off [[Stevens Model 67]] in "Magic Man" (S5E01). She also briefly carries it in "50% Off" (S5E02) before sending drugs to Sticky (Sasha Feldman) and Ron (Morgan Krantz).

=Submachine Guns=
==Heckler & Koch MP7A1==
A [[Heckler & Koch MP7A1]] with a Trijicon RMR sight is used by a Colombian gang member ([[Christopher M. Campos]]) in "Bagman" (S5E08). The MP7 having an RMR is mildly anachronistic as the scene takes place in 2004 while the RMR wasn't available until 2009.
[[File:H&K MP7A1 20-rnd.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Heckler & Koch MP7A1 - 4.6x30mm]]

=Rifles=
==AKMS==
A guard of Lalo's hacienda named Miguel ([[Norman Mora]]) is armed with an [[AKMS]] fitted with a drum magazine in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10). He shoots some celebratory gunfire into the sky as his boss returns home, and later the gun is seen again several times.

[[File:BCS S05E10 04.jpg|thumb|none|600px|He shoots joyfully into the sky at the return of Lalo.]]

==AKM==
A guard of Lalo's hacienda named Ciro ([[Ulysses Montoya]]) is armed with an [[AKM]] rifle in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10).
[[File:AKMRifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AKM - 7.62x39mm]]

==AK-47==
A guard of Lalo's hacienda named Herardo (uncredited) is armed with an [[AK-47]] (or probably [[AKS-47]]) in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10).
[[File:AK-47 Type 3 rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-47 - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:BCS S05E10 08.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The front sight and the muzzle is seen in the center.]]

==M4A1==
DEA agents are armed with [[M4A1]]s with flashlights and ACOG scopes during the Cartel drug hideout raid in "50% Off" (S5E02). APD officers and DEA agents, including Harry Lipenstein (Robert Sanchez), are seen with carbines in "Namaste" (S5E04).

==Heckler & Koch HK416==
Due to a continuity error, the DDM4 rifle of one of the Gus's Sicario Assassins (Robert Paul Taylor) turns into a [[Heckler & Koch HK416]] with an EOTech sight during the attack on Lalo in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10). The gun is anachronistic for the 2004 setting as it was introduced in 2005.
[[Image:HK416 14.5 Current.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch HK416 with 14.5 inch barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==Daniel Defense M4A1==
The sicario assassins sent by Gus to kill Lalo in Mexico are armed with [[Daniel Defense M4A1]] rifles fitted with an EOTech sight in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10). Lalo Salamanca ([[Tony Dalton]]) also takes possession of one during the shootout. The appearance of this weapon and its optic is an anachronism, as the series is set in 2004, and neither the Daniel Defense M4A1 nor the EOTech 553 and EXPS-3 existed during that timeframe (though the Daniel Defense RIS II rail utilized on this weapon was first developed and evaluated by SOCOM during 2005-2006).

==Daniel Defense MK18==
Most of the Colombian gang members are armed with [[Daniel Defense MK18]]s with Maxim SCW stocks and various sights during the money ambush in "Bagman" (S5E08). The rifle in this configuration is anachronistic.
[[File:Dd-mk18-factory.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Daniel Defense MK18 SBR - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:BCS S05E08 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Colombian gang member ([[Conrad R. Padilla]]) holds a DD MK18 with an Aimpoint T2 (or similar) red dot sight and double taped PMAGs when his crew blocks Saul's way.]]

[[File:BCS S05E08 22.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Tiburón shoots back before escaping in an SUV.]]

==M40A1==
Mike ([[Jonathan Banks]]) continues to use his [[M40A1]] sniper rifle purchased from Lawson in Season 2. He rescues Saul from the Colombian gang ambush in "Bagman" (S5E08) and later (unintentionally) destroys the car with the last escaped mercenary in it with a well-aimed shot. He watches Lalo in Saul and Kim's apartment through the scope of his rifle in "Bad Choice Road" (S5E09).

As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant (which is an interesting design choice as no USPs were ever made with extended frames) and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness. Unlike the original pump shotgun which is always pumped when reloaded, the remake shotgun is realistically only pumped when emptied.

[[File:RE4R870reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading a new shell.]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[File:RE4R_SkullShaker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine. Despite the aforementioned Remington 870 having a different reload animation for an empty magazine tube, the M3 Super 90's charging handle is always pulled when reloaded which would eject a chambered shell.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock, displaying excellent trigger discipline.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2004. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

[[File:RE4R_M21Huey_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant (which is an interesting design choice as no USPs were ever made with extended frames) and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4Rusp9 aimflashlight.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon using the USP in conjunction with a flashlight.]]
[[File:RE4Rusp9tacticalreload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Performing a tactical reload.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness. Unlike the original pump shotgun which is always pumped when reloaded, the remake shotgun is realistically only pumped when emptied.

[[File:RE4R870reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading a new shell.]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock, displaying excellent trigger discipline.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[File:RE4R_M1A1_4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2004. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

[[File:RE4R_M21Huey_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]

[[File:RE4Rusp9tacticalreload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Performing a tactical reload.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness. Unlike the original pump shotgun which is always pumped when reloaded, the remake shotgun is realistically only pumped when emptied.

[[File:RE4R870reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading a new shell.]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine.

[[File:M3S90OldStyle.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Benelli M3 Super 90 - 12 gauge]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock, displaying excellent trigger discipline.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[File:RE4R_M1A1_4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2004. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness. Unlike the original pump shotgun which is always pumped when reloaded, the remake shotgun is realistically only pumped when emptied.

[[File:RE4R870shoot2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon mid pump while taking down a ganado.]]
[[File:RE4R870reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading a new shell.]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[File:RE4R_SkullShaker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock, displaying excellent trigger discipline.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

[[File:RE4R_M21Huey_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]

[[File:RE4Rusp9tacticalreload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Performing a tactical reload.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness. Unlike the original pump shotgun which is always pumped when reloaded, the remake shotgun is realistically only pumped when emptied.

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Left side.]]
[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[File:RE4R_M1A1_4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

[[File:RE4R_M21Huey_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]

[[File:RE4Rusp9tacticalreload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Performing a tactical reload.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols. It fires at about 800-900 RPM, which is much slower than its real blistering 2200 RPM fire rate, which it historically has never had in this series, although the original game came the closest. It is, however, a marked improvement over the last time this sidearm and stock appeared in ''RE2R'', where it chugged along at a speed slower than an M3 Grease Gun.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness.

[[File:RE4R870reload.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Loading a new shell.]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game (unlike the original Riot Gun, which is pump-action) but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries. In the model viewer it is depicted with a shell on the lifter, but this would be incorrect as the shotgun doesn't deposit one from the magazine onto the lifter unless the trigger is pulled or the shell release lever is tripped, and it would prevent the user from lifting the shell lifter in order to load rounds into the magazine.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4Rtmpnostockidle.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Leon holding the TMP without a stock.]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[Image:H&KMP5A5.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite the real M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons being unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[File:RE4R_M1A1_4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter. Unlike ''RE3R'', this incarnation of the carbine doesn't come with its sling swivel, but the charging handle is fully modeled.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to the bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

"Focus aiming" returns from the previous remakes, standing still long enough allows the crosshair to be reduced to a dot, allowing for an increased critical shot rate. Using the optional laser sight for some pistols (or when using the Hardballer in general) increases the critical shot chance, as it is always considered "focused" by default.

The attaché case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attaché case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. However closer inspection of the magazine when reloading shows accurately modeled 5.7x28mm rounds. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot with low fire rate, with its exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3 in exchange of magazine capacity. It is a well-balanced upgrade to the USP9, holding 9 rounds initially, up to 13 when fully upgraded. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and it can be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade. The 870 packs the biggest damage and stopping power of all of the shotguns, but its wide spread necessitates close-quarter riskiness.

[[File:RE4R_W870_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[File:RE4R_SkullShaker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:M3S90OldStyle.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Benelli M3 Super 90 - 12 gauge]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in. It isn't as strong nor accurate as the other shotguns (so much so that its inaccuracy is rather too comical), it fares better in the capacity and reload time market.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attaché case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[Image:H&KMP5A5.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain .223 Remington cartridges and it can pierce through enemies.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly. While it demands trigger and accuracy control, the 933 can surpass the SL8 in every way possible.

=Machine Guns=

==M134 Minigun==
The Huey gunship that Mike pilots is armed with the M21 Armament System. Twin [[M134 Minigun]]s and side-mounted 70mm rocket pods can be seen mounted on the helicopter.

[[File:RE4R_M21Huey_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas. Both rocket launchers can be used to bypass certain sections of the game and even one-shot bosses entirely.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell nor keep the Special Rocket Launcher during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the optional laser sight. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M26.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

[[File:RE4R_S9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3. Despite the presence of a rail for mounting lasers, the Blacktail cannot mount the option laser sight available. This could potentially be explained by the laser sight being designed to mount onto Picatinny rails, as the SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine all sport such rails.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[File:RE4R_SkullShaker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:M3S90OldStyle.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Benelli M3 Super 90 - 12 gauge]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]], albeit with a more rounded trigger guard. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[Image:Rem870extwood.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Remington 870 Police Magnum customized with extended magazine tube - 12 gauge]]

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[Image:H&KMP5A5.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:M1sb.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1A1 Thompson - .45 ACP]]
[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:Rifle Springfield M1903A4 with M84 sight.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Springfield M1903A4 - .30-06]]

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

=Machine Guns=

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]]. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades) and its accuracy beyond several feet is atrocious but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[File:RE4R_SkullShaker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. In game it is modeled after an early model Benelli M3 as shown by its barrel mounted rifle sights, as is typical with models such as those imported by HK on the United States civilian market. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[Image:H&KMP5A5.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids unlocking the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:M1sb.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1A1 Thompson - .45 ACP]]
[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to bolt-action M1903), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

=Machine Guns=

==Maxim MG08==
Various [[Maxim MG08]] emplaced machine guns with custom mounts are used by the Ganado in the early island levels, which can be commandeered by Leon. These carry limited ammo.

[[Image:MaximMG08.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Maxim MG08 on 'sledge' mount - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. The "R" designation is unknown. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]]. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades), but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[Image:M1887 Airsoft.jpg|thumb|450px|none|'''Airsoft''' replica Model 1887 with sawn-off stock, barrel, and cutaway trigger guard, as seen in ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'']]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids used to unlock the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to them), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M26.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

Resident Evil 4 (2023 VG)

2023-04-08T15:01:54Z

Antediluvial: /* Heckler & Koch USP9 */ added a small blurb about the possible design inspirations that went in the SG-09R. I can't help but wonder if prototype examples of the P30/HK45 contributed their design elements (Pic rail, checkering, finger grooves) to the design of the SG. The base USP never had these elements to begin with, so they had to come from somewhere.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate. Predictably, it remains as Leon's sidearm in The Mercenaries mode.

[[File:TM SG-09 R.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Tokyo Marui SG-09 R - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the "SG-09 R", a customized Heckler & Koch USP, from ''Resident Evil 4'' (2023). Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame. The presence of design elements from the later P30 and HK45 pistols especially in the grip checkering pattern, finger grooves and Picatinny rail suggests that in-universe, Joseph Kendo took inspiration from examples of both pistols (which likely would have been in late prototype phases in 2004) or competing pistols incorporating these features.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.
[[File:Leon sentinel nine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Tokyo Marui Sentinel Nine "Leon Model" - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the custom SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail from ''Resident Evil: Vendetta''.]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game as well as The Mercenaries. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]]. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons or by completing all stages in the Mercenaries in S rank or higher. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The hammer is incorrectly depicted as always being cocked despite Leon never physically touching it, as if the weapon were automatic.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades), but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

[[File:RE4R_Handcannon_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''. It is Leon's shotgun of choice in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas. It is Krauser's firearm of choice in The Mercenaries and the main game, along with his compound bow.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP. Instead of the custom MP9 in the original game, HUNK now uses the MP5A5 as his only firearm in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids used to unlock the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage. It is the longarm of choice for the newcomer Luis in The Mercenaries.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7. It is available in Leon's loadout in The Mercenaries.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:Hk sl8-1.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Heckler & Koch SL8-1 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:HK SL8-4.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Heckler & Koch SL8-4 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to them), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well. They have infinite ammo in both of these sequences. It is also usable in the castle portion of The Mercenaries mode, which contain very limited ammo (3 to be exact).

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M26.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006. The gun also sports a custom grip with finger grooves and checkering pattern reminiscent of the P30.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate.

Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight. As a consequence of this, the normal front sight on the slide itself has been replaced with a filler plug in the same finish as the slide.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ditto, other side, bearing high resemblance to the airsoft replica reference image above. It's no IMFDB 2.0 yet, but eventually we'll get there. Note that the serial number is visible here and in a different spot than a normal USP's is, which is on the underside of the dust cover where the rail is molded on the real gun's frame.]]

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.
[[File:Leon sentinel nine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Tokyo Marui Sentinel Nine "Leon Model" - 6mm BB. This is a licensed replica of the custom SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail from ''Resident Evil: Vendetta''.]]

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

[[File:RE4R_Punisher_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]]. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The variant depicted in-game is also a double-action variant, as the hammer remains cocked after firing the weapon. DAO variants of the Model 500 aren't in widespread production as of 2005.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades), but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''.

[[File:M3S90OldStyle.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Benelli M3 Super 90 - 12 gauge]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids used to unlock the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage.

[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:RE4R_Stingray_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to them), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well.

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

'''''Resident Evil 4''''' is a 2023 remake of the critically-acclaimed ''[[Resident Evil 4]]'' originally released in 2005. As with recent installments of the franchise, the 2023 remake runs under the technologically-advanced RE Engine, featuring significantly improved graphics over its original game as well as its HD remakes. Along with new visuals, much of the mechanics have been remade and the gameplay itself being modernized to the remake series standards starting with the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]].

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
As per the recent remakes, the game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder perspective, albeit with more fluidity and freedom since the player character can now aim and move at the same time. The laser sight used in most of the console versions of the original game have been removed (with the exception of the Hardballer's iconic laser module), although it exists as a secondary attachment to some pistols. Interestingly, almost every firearm (not including the fictional "P.R.L. 412" energy weapon) has returned from the original game, with most of them modeled accurately to their real-world counterparts (such as the SL8 and the Striker-12) while others are remodeled (the fictional "Silver Ghost" to the slightly-less fictional USP9, and the M1911 to Hardballer) entirely, but function the same way.

The attache case first introduced in the original game returns in the remake as its form of inventory system, and weapons can be switched out on the fly. Weapons cannot be discarded entirely, instead, they can be put into the typewriter storage (the item box equivalent to recent entries) which can be retrieved back at any time. The functionality of the knife has been expanded compared to the previous remakes, as they can be used to parry highly-damaging/instant kill attacks, or it can be used to get out of a grab quickly for some enemies. There is a durability system with knives, which can be broken if they're used too much. Some knives can be repaired at the Merchant with a fee, while others (most commonly the ones found in the game world) will be entirely lost. Multiple knives can be acquired, and the game will prioritize consumable knives before the reusable ones.

Speaking of the Merchant, he returns in the remake as well. Many weapons and items can be bought from him via pesetas while some items and weapons are bought with rare spinels, which can be obtained by completing various side quests that are featured in this game. Various weapons and items can be obtained for free throughout the game world itself, but if they are missed within the chapter it is featured in, it will be available in the next chapter in the Merchant's wares. Once again, weapons can be upgraded from the Merchant, and ammunition capacity upgrades can go to absurdly high levels (though it isn't as high as in the original game). Once fully upgraded, weapons can be upgraded one more time through exclusive upgrades, in which they require an exclusive upgrade ticket (traded with spinels) and a large amount of pesetas. Some weapons can be bought at the post-game shop, purchased via credits obtained by completing various challenges.

As before, various weapon accessories such as scopes and stocks can be fitted onto several weapons to enhance their capabilities, at the cost of some inventory space.

=Handguns=
All available pistols (and not revolvers and the Mauser C96 "Red 9") can hold an additional round in the chamber if the player reloads the pistol while it isn't empty, which also has a separate "tactical" reload animation. All pistols are chambered in high velocity "9mm Handgun" rounds, while magnum-type handguns use ".45 Centerfire Pistol" (ie. .45 ACP). Leon holds the handguns in either a traditional stance or through the Center Axis Relock technique.

==Heckler & Koch USP9==
Replacing the hybridized "Silver Ghost" pistol in the original game, Leon starts with a Kendo Shop custom-tailored two-tone "SG-09 R", based on the [[Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP9]]; its in-game description notes that it is a derivative of the "MUP", which is the name of the USP9 in the RE2 and RE3 remakes. As with the VP70M in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], the USP9 is Leon's "canon" cutscene sidearm, as he always brandishes this pistol regardless of having it in his attache case or stored in the typewriter storage. It rather interestingly sports a Picatinny rail on the frame; USPs did not have such integral rails during their production run, instead sporting a proprietary H&K developed rail for attaching lights and lasers. Picatinny rails did not become standard on HK pistols until the HK45 and P30 line of pistols that were introduced in 2006.

It initially and incorrectly holds 10 handgun rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though the level 3 capacity upgrade gives it 14 rounds, one round shy of the actual 15 in real life. This can be upgraded up to 18 rounds when fully upgraded. It doesn't come with its laser sight by default, unlike the original pistol, but it can be fitted with one if the player buys the laser sight upgrade from the Merchant; the cutscene pistol is never shown with a laser sight, even if the player upgraded their pistol with one.

"SG" in its designation likely refers to "Silver Ghost", the unofficial name of the original weapon it replaced, while "-09" likely refers to its caliber, 9mm. As before, the pistol's exclusive perk upgrade allows the pistol to have a 5x critical shot rate.

Note that the airsoft pistol bears the HK, USP, European proofs, and date code markings on the slide while these are removed from the in game model, leaving only the 9x19mm caliber and kendo logo.]]
[[File:RE4R_SG09R_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SG-09 R in the model viewer, without its laser sight module attached. Its frame is slightly longer than the normal variant, and it has been fitted with a compensator, which includes a new front sight.

==SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail==
The "Sentinel Nine" appears as one of the exclusive Deluxe or Collector's edition weapons, based on the [[SIG-Sauer P226 Beavertail]] that Leon used in ''[[Resident Evil: Vendetta]]'' under the same name. This marks it as its first usable appearance by the player in the game series.

The weapon is anachronistic, as the [https://www.projectumbrella.net/sentinel-nine-thorough-analysis.html in-universe documents] about the Sentinel Nine released alongside the tie-in Tokyo Marui replica, state that the Sentinel Nine was developed in 2011. It can be excused however, since the pistol itself is bonus content.

While it has slightly lower damage than the default USP9 Leon starts with, it boasts the highest capacity of any handgun in the game (not including the VP70M's exclusive double ammo upgrade), at 31 when fully upgraded. It initially holds 19 rounds to start with, and it has a faster fire rate than the USP9 to boot, although it is slightly superseded by the Springfield Armory XD when the latter is fully upgraded. Like the USP9, its exclusive perk upgrade allows 5x critical shot rate, and it can be attached with a laser sight.

==FN Five-seveN==
The [[FN Five-seveN]] returns as the "Punisher", along with its exaggerated piercing capabilities. The pistol can only be bought from the Merchant, but instead of pesetas, he sells the weapon in spinels. Once again, the Five-seveN in-game uses standard handgun rounds shared by other pistols, which is 9mm in this game instead of the 5.7 round. It holds an underloaded 12 rounds by default, though the level 4 capacity upgrade increases it to 21 rounds, one round over the maximum capacity of the real deal. Like the USP9, the Five-seveN can be upgraded with an underbarrel laser sight. Instead of the all-black finish of the original weapon, the pistol is based on the FDE variant.

==Mauser C96 "Red 9"==
The iconic [[Mauser C96 "Red 9"|C96 "Red9"]] also returns, and it can now be found for free in Chapter 4, though if the player misses the firearm there, it can alternatively be bought by the Merchant with pesetas. As before, it can be fitted with a stock to improve accuracy and recoil. It initially holds 8 rounds in capacity, though the level 2 ammo capacity upgrade allows it to correctly hold 10 rounds, which can be potentially increased further up to 16. An iconic pistol from returning veterans and new players alike, the Red9's best known for its raw damage per shot, with it exclusive perk upgrade having 1.5x firepower.

It remains as Luis' primary sidearm in the game. An infinite ammo variant of the Red9 is used by Leon throughout Chapter 11's minecart section, with 10 rounds instead of the default 8 rounds. Since Luis isn't seen with his sidearm all throughout this specific section, it implies that he lent his sidearm to Leon for the time being.

[[File:RE4R_Red9_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Springfield Armory XD==
The "Blacktail" also makes its return, taking the appearance on the [[Springfield Armory XD]]. It is the most compact pistol available, taking up 2x2 slots in the attaché case rather than 2x3.

[[File:RE4R_Blacktail_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch VP70M==
The [[Heckler_%26_Koch_VP70|H&K VP70M]] makes its appearance once again as the "Matilda". Unlike its original incarnation, it is not a post-game weapon (rather, it is obtained by spending 10 Spinels from the Merchant from Chapter 8 onwards) and be used without its stock, which must be purchased separately. Correctly, the slide does not lock back on the last shot; however, the empty reload animation incorrectly depicts Leon reloading the pistol without racking the slide, unlike other pistols.

[[File:RE4R_Matilda_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Schofield==
The "Broken Butterfly" returns once more, now more accurately based on a [[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] than a hybrid of the former and the [[Colt Single Action Army]]. It is the quintessential magnum handgun, which can be bought much later in the game compared to the original version, available in chapter 7 for pesetas. It initially holds 6 rounds in the cylinder, though it can hold up to an impossible 10 rounds through upgrades and Capcom-patented magic. Its exclusive upgrade perk increases the firepower by 1.5x.

[[File:RE4R_BB_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==AMT Hardballer==
The "Killer7" returns, albeit modeled after an [[AMT Hardballer]] (along with a large functional custom laser sight, making it resemble more of the pistol used in ''[[The Terminator]]'' as well as KAEDE's "CONNECTION" pistol in Capcom's [[Talk:Killer7|namesake cult-classic]]) than a standard Colt [[M1911]] used in the original game. The trigger guard is also more squared, a characteristic of the [[LAR Grizzly Pistol]]. It can be purchased from the Merchant with 42,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 11 onwards, making it as a late-game stable alternative to the Smith & Wesson Schofield. It starts off with a reasonable seven shots in the magazine, though this can be increased up to 15 once maxed out. It now has an exclusive upgrade, giving it a 5x critical shot rate.

[[File:RE4R_Killer7_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 500==
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] returns as the "Handcannon", a post-game unlock by completing the "Professional Agent" challenge, done by completing the game in the Professional difficulty (the highest difficulty after Hardcore) in any rank without using any bonus weapons. It retains the wood grips seen in the original model, and it ditches the fictional laser sight and fore that was once part of the original weapon, in favor of the more true-to-life 10.5" variant. It now uses magnum ammo instead of proprietary handcannon ammo. The variant depicted in-game is also a double-action variant, as the hammer remains cocked after firing the weapon. DAO variants of the Model 500 aren't in widespread production as of 2005.

It initially holds the correct 5 rounds when first obtained, 9 when fully upgraded. Capacity is a moot point once its exclusive upgrade is obtained, allowing it to have infinite ammunition. Its damage doesn't wildly surpass the other magnum-type weapons compared to its original incarnation (with the Schofield having better raw damage and the Hardballer having dramatically increased crit rate, when both of them have their exclusive upgrades), but its insane longevity thanks to infinite ammo makes up its minimal shortcomings. Leon reloads the revolver while the hammer is cocked, which is impossible to perform as the cylinder cannot be open or closed.

Wearing Leon's "Pinstripe" outfit with the Handcannon while it has infinite ammo will have Leon perform a stylish move, akin to the infinite ammo Thompson SMG.

=Shotguns=
==Remington 870==
As before, Leon acquires the [[Remington 870]] (as the "W-870") as his first shotgun obtained in the Ganado Village (now known as the Village Square in the remake). Instead of the Express Combo in the original game, its model was based on the fully upgraded variant in the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]]. It holds five shells when first obtained, despite the presence of an extended tube magazine on the model. It can be upgraded to the correct 8 with the level 4 ammo upgrade and up to 10 on its max ammo upgrade.

[[File:RE4R_W870_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Winchester Model 1887==
The "Skull Shaker", a sawed off [[Winchester Model 1887]] akin to the famous cut-down variant first seen in ''[[Terminator 2]]'', is available by purchasing the Deluxe or Collector's Edition or through its own separate DLC. In a similar vein to its reference, Leon will flip cock the weapon, though the weapon does not have an enlarged lever loop. Unlike the other shotguns, the custom Model 1887 is an extremely compact weapon, beating out the Striker-12. However, it can hold a paltry ''two'' shells in the magazine tube when not upgraded, though it can be reloaded and expended fairly quickly (in fact, all shells are loaded at once), which may be Capcom's way of referencing the real life Cowboy Action Shooting Drop 2 capacity mod sometimes done to real 1887s for competition purposes. It can be upgraded up to six shells with a maxed out ammo capacity upgrade, though the correct five shell capacity is possible.

Its presence in the game is likely a callback to Jill's [[Winchester Model 1892#"Mare's Leg"|Winchester 1892 "Mare's Leg"]] in the original ''[[Resident Evil 3: Nemesis|Resident Evil 3]]'', where in the weapon functions as a fast-firing lever-action shotgun. It even has similar gameplay properties to it, especially when the Model 1887 is maxed out.

[[Image:M1887 Airsoft.jpg|thumb|450px|none|'''Airsoft''' replica Model 1887 with sawn-off stock, barrel, and cutaway trigger guard, as seen in ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'']]

==Benelli M3 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] fitted with an [[Benelli M4 Super 90|M4]] stock from the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake appears as the "Riot Gun". It is made available in Chapter 6 and has the tightest spread of all the shotguns. Interestingly, the Riot Gun is semi-automatic in-game but does not use its respective modification as seen in ''Resident Evil 3''.

[[File:M3S90OldStyle.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Benelli M3 Super 90 - 12 gauge]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M3RG_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Penn Arms Striker-12==
The "Striker" makes its appearance, available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 10 onwards. The in-game model is now accurately modeled after the later production variant of the [[Penn Arms Striker-12]], featuring its unique thumb tab, rear drum advance lever and its large shell deflector from the other Striker variants. The reload animation is more to its real-life counterpart, as Leon uses the winding key after inserting the shell (or shells in fact, as he inserts more than one shell into the weapon to shorten its reload time). Leon does not, however, eject the last spent shell manually with the ejector rod featured in the weapon. And oddly enough, firing the weapon does not eject the shells either. To top it all off, he still doesn't brace the stock when in use, despite the presence of the foldout stock in the model, he continues to fire it from the hip.

The Striker functions to its counterpart in the original game in essence, being a compact semi-automatic lategame shotgun. It holds 12 shotshells in the revolving drum when first obtained, up to 24 with all of the ammo capacity upgrades and up to ''48'' when its exclusive perk upgrade is bought (downplayed from an absurd ''100'' in its original incarnation). When it is fully upgraded, Leon can reload the entire Striker by inserting ''one'' shell in.

The Striker itself also makes as appearance as a charm trinket for the attache case, increasing Leon's movement speed by 8%. This is a reference to the well-known "Ditman Glitch", wherein the Striker (or more accurately, a hybrid of it) is used to make all of Leon's actions perform faster than usual; which makes it a common sight in speedruns of the original game.

[[File:RE4R_Striker_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Submachine Guns=
TMP ammo in the original game is now compatible with other submachine guns in the remake.

==Steyr TMP==
The [[Steyr TMP]] returns as well, under the "TMP" name as before. It can be bought from the Merchant starting in Chapter 3, an early game automatic firearm. Like before, the TMP fires 9mm submachine gun ammunition, which cannot be exchanged with the pistol ammunition commonly found in-game, and it can be fitted with a stock to improve its accuracy. While its magazine is shortened from its original incarnation, it does not reflect the 30 round capacity that it starts off with, which can be increased up to 70 with upgrades. It is modeled after its true-to-life variant, and as an result, it does not have the mounted laser sight on the grip. The TMP's stock must now be purchased with spinels rather than pesetas.

Interestingly, while not in the full game itself, the TMP can also be acquired as a hidden weapon in the Chainsaw Demo, under the requirement that the player must empty the inventory before proceeding to village proper, and finding it in a well at the south area of the village.

[[File:RE4R_TMP_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
New to ''Resident Evil 4'', the HK [[MP5A5]] makes an appearance as the "LE 5", being an alternative to the TMP which can be first obtained for free by solving a puzzle in Chapter 13. It is an altered version of the MP5A3 of the [[Resident Evil 2 (2019)|''Resident Evil 2'' remake]], with a Navy 3-round burst trigger group (thus, identifying it as an A5, with its extending stock) and the deletion of the checkering texture seen in the original "slimline" MP5 variants and its original optic; though other optics can be attached to the weapon for better accuracy. It still doesn't have its iron sights, however, even when optics are removed from the weapon. The bolt of the weapon also never opens when fired or when the cocking lever is locked back during reloading.

Compared to the TMP, the MP5 has penetration power, like the FN Five-seveN (with its exclusive upgrade having 5x penetration power; again, just like the Five-seveN), at the cost of raw power and reload time. It holds 20 rounds in the magazine when not upgraded, though it can hold 30 with the level 2 capacity upgrade, all the way to 60 when maxed out. The MP5A5 is chambered in 9mm Parabellum (as it shares ammunition to the aforementioned TMP, with the SMG ammo box explicitly mentioning this), unlike the ''Resident Evil 2'' remake where it is oddly chambered in .380 ACP. This does not explain the weapon's piercing capabilities, however; though it could be for gameplay purposes, to make the MP5 more distinct from the available TMP.

[[File:RE4R_LE5_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_LE5_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[Thompson Submachine Gun|Thompson "Chicago Typewriter"]] makes its appearance once again, now under the name "Chicago Sweeper". As the Separate Ways side-story isn't included in the remake game's release, the Thompson can be unlocked instead by completing the game in the Professional difficulty with at least an A rank. It is obtained for free of cost once it is unlocked, as it is stored in the typewriter storage. As before, the Thompson is depicted as the [[M1A1 Thompson|GI M1A1 variant]], with a stick magazine, side-charging handle and streamlined, but winged sights. It is considered as a "bonus weapon", and using it voids used to unlock the Handcannon.

Unlike the original version of the weapon, the Thompson does not come with its infinite ammunition by default, as this property is now an exclusive perk upgrade; which means the Thompson incorrectly uses 9mm submachine gun rounds until the exclusive upgrade is obtained. Despite using stick magazines, these hold 50 rounds in the magazine in-game, which is the capacity used in the 50-round Thompson drum magazines for the 1921 and 1928 variants. This can be upgraded into an absurd 70 rounds when fully upgraded. Obtaining the infinite ammunition upgrade changes the stick magazine into the aforementioned drum magazine (despite real the M1 and the M1A1 Thompsons unable to utilize drum magazines), which makes the magazine model no longer tied to Leon's current costume; though the "reload" animation when using the Mafia (now known as Pinstripe) costume remains.

[[Image:Colt 1921A Thompson2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|1921 Thompson - .45 ACP]]

=Rifles=
Rifle-type firearms are aimed in a first-person perspective, even when the optics are removed. They also have an exclusive property of having 3x damage multiplier to enemy weakpoints. All rifles are chambered in 55-grain 223 Remington cartridges.

==Springfield M1903A4==
The [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Sniper Rifle|Springfield M1903A4]] bolt-action rifle returns in the remake, now known as the "SR M1903" instead of the generic "Rifle" designation. It is purchased relatively early in the game, as before, at Chapter 2. Buying the weapon during the said chapter will come with an ACOG sight for free. When sights are mounted to the weapon, the rifle will be fitted with a Picatinny rail. While its maximum firepower mentioned in its stats no longer exceeds that of the magnum-type handguns featured in the game (even when its exclusive perk upgrade was purchased), it is still capable as a suitable long range weapon with raw power in mind, especially when hitting enemy weakpoints. All rounds are correctly loaded individually instead of using stripper clips, to further make itself distinct from other rifles of its class.

It holds 5 rounds by default, though it can hold up to a maximum of 13 through upgrades. Its exclusive power doubles the firepower, heavily increasing the weapon's damage.

[[File:Rifle Springfield M1903A4 with M84 sight.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Springfield M1903A4 - .30-06]]
[[File:RE4R_M1903_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_M1903_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Springfield M1903A3===
Detaching the current scope of the M1903A4 turns it into the [[Springfield M1903A3]] variant, as both of its iron sights are attached to the model to make aiming in the first-person perspective more viable. The weapon is still reloaded round-by-round, however.

[[File:M1903A3_Rifle_made_by_Remington_Arms.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Remington-manufactured M1903A3 Springfield - .30-06 Springfield]]

==Heckler & Koch SL8 hybrid==
Changed from the generic "Semi-Auto Rifle", the "Stingray" makes an appearance as one of the available rifle options. It bears much more resemblance to the [[Heckler & Koch SL8]] in real life compared to how it was in the original game. Specifically, the game depicts the SL8 as a hybrid variant of the US import SL8-1 (the crimping in magazine well and single-stack magazine being notable giveaways), but with the shortened rail of the European/Canadian variant SL8-4, albeit without the G36 handguard. It is available in the Merchant's wares starting from Chapter 7.

While not the fastest-firing of its kind anymore (which was taken over by the Model 933), it remains as a great ammo-conserving variant, also allowing rapid precision fire to enemy weakpoints in close to medium ranges. It initially holds 10 rounds, which is the correct capacity of the proprietary magazine that the SL8-1 (and the SL8-6) is loaded in. This can be increased up to 18 rounds with the highest capacity upgrade. Its exclusive upgrade doubles the rate of fire.

[[File:Hk sl8-1.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Heckler & Koch SL8-1 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:HK SL8-4.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Heckler & Koch SL8-4 - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[File:RE4R_Stingray_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Colt Model 933==
Coming from the [[Resident Evil 3 (2020 VG)|''Resident Evil 3'' remake]], the [[Colt Model 933]] returns as the "CQBR Assault Rifle". Its designation "CQBR" as well its A2 standalone sight, aren't anachronistic this time, as they have been in service as per the game's setting - 2005. It is first obtainable for free in Chapter 10, once the player completes a puzzle in the library of the castle. If not obtained there, it can be purchased from the Merchant starting from Chapter 11, with a limited-time discount all throughout the aforementioned chapter.

The Model 933 is considered as an expensive, fast-firing rifle option compared to the latter two rifles (which, as a result, has less firepower compared to them), best at single-target damage per second output against tougher enemies and bosses. It holds an underloaded 20 rounds inside the 30 STANAG magazine when not upgraded, up to a still incorrect 32 (sharing the capacity as with the counterpart in the ''Resident Evil 3'' remake) when maxed out. Its exclusive upgrade increases firepower by 1.5x. Even though its usage of in-game rifle ammo is mostly correct (.223 Remington is near identical to 5.56 NATO), one will soon question the CQBR's longevity once you realize that having an automatic weapon use an ammo type meant for snipers will probably burn through already rare ammo reserves rather quickly.

[[File:RE4R_CQBR_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Machine Guns=

=Launchers=

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] once again serves as the main rocket launcher throughout the game, featuring the same role as with the original iteration, along with its use of some of the Ganado in the later parts of the storyline. This time, the RPG-7 in the remake does not feature any sort of scope in all of its variants. The Infinite Rocket Launcher is available only in a New Game+ save file for 2,000,000 pesetas.

Interestingly, during the final boss fight, the player cannot use any other weapon nor switch to other weapons once the special variant of the RPG-7 is dropped specifically to finish the boss, meaning it is no longer possible that the player can sell the Special Rocket Launcher for extra money during a NG+ playthrough. The regular/infinite Rocket Launcher can be used to finish the aforementioned boss off, but the Special Rocket Launcher will not be dropped.

=Heavy Weaponry=

==Cannon==
As before, a few cannon artillery pieces are stationed across the castle sections of the game. Leon himself can commandeer one in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8, using it to destroy the castle gate and a couple of catapults as well.

=Other=
=="Bolt Thrower"==
Replacing the original "Mine Thrower" fictional arm gun in the original game, a modernized crossbow sorts of weapon known as the "Bolt Thrower" makes its appearance. This weapon can be purchased with 10,000 pesetas starting from Chapter 2, with the Merchant giving Leon a small discount upon going behind the church. As its name implies, the "Bolt Thrower" fires craftable bolt projectiles which can be retrieved after the projectile hits. Leon can attach the bolts with explosive mines, which detonate when an enemy is in its proximity or after a few seconds once it has been struck to the enemy.

Stealthy but slow-firing (especially not upgraded), the Bolt Thrower greatly benefits from exploration sections in the game, conserving ammunition for other weapons when they will be needed for the high combat sections later on.

[[File:RE4R_BoltThrower_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

=Grenades=
==M26 Hand Grenade==
The [[M26 hand grenade]] returns from the previous remakes, this time as the "Heavy Grenade". This grenade functions as an upgraded version of the M67 "Hand Grenade" below, having more demolition power with a larger blast radius.

[[Image:200px-M-67handgrenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M26 High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M26.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M67 Fragmentation Grenade==
The [[M67 hand grenade]] makes its appearance, simply known as the "Hand Grenade", which replaces the original function of the M26 grenades in the previous remakes.

[[File:Baseball.jpg|thumb|none|200px|M67 hand grenade]]
[[File:RE4R_M67.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==M84 Stun Grenade==
The [[M84 stun grenade]] once again makes its return from the recent remakes, known as the "Flash Grenade". Its color scheme is altered compared to its previous appearance, with differing markings as well.

[[Image:M84-Flash-Bang-Grenade.jpg|thumb|150px|none|M84 stun grenade]]

[[File:MW2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'' (2009)]]

{{spoiler|This page contains spoilers. Read at your own risk!}}
'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2''''' (also known as simply ''Modern Warfare 2'', ''CoD:MW2'' or ''MW2'') is the sixth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty|Call of Duty series]]'' and the second installment of the ''Modern Warfare'' franchise. Officially released worldwide on November 10, 2009, ''MW2'' was developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms.

The game's storyline is set in the year 2016, five years after the events of ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. Despite the efforts of the U.S. Marines, the SAS, and the Russian Loyalists, the Russian Ultranationalist party has taken power within Russia. An Ultranationalist terrorist, Vladimir Makarov, considered too radical even for the new Russian government, begins his campaign to take revenge upon the western world. In response, Task Force 141, led by LTG Shepherd, is created to hunt down Makarov. During the campaign, the player takes the roles of PFC Joseph Allen and PVT James Ramirez of Hunter Two-One, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, U.S. Army, as well as Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson and Capt. John "Soap" MacTavish of Task Force 141.

A remaster of the singleplayer campaign, titled '''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''''', was released on March 31, 2020 for the PlayStation 4, and on April 30, 2020 for the Xbox One and PC.

'''The following weapons and equipment are used in the video game ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Weapons in ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'' are categorized into the following categories: the primary Assault Rifles, Light Machine Guns, Sniper Rifles, and Submachine Guns, and the secondary Handguns, Machine Pistols, Shotguns, and Launchers.

All handguns and submachine guns from multiplayer can be dual-wielded in ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2''. The Rangers and the Winchester Model 1887 shotguns can also be dual-wielded.

=Handguns=
All handguns in the game, except for the M1911, are available in both single and multiplayer modes. All handguns in the multiplayer can be equipped with a variety of accessories, including: FMJ rounds, suppressors, dual wield (akimbo), tactical knives, and extended magazines (unless noted otherwise).

Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', the game effectively animates all handguns as operating in DAO (Double Action Only) mode.

==Beretta 92SB==
The [[Beretta 92SB]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', once again standing in as the military issue M9. In singleplayer, it is the primary sidearm of all U.S. troops, Task Force 141, U.S. Navy SEALs, and is infrequently used by the Middle Eastern OpFor and the Brazilian Militia.

===Beretta M9 (remastered version)===
In ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'', the weapon is modeled after a proper [[Beretta M9]]. It appears to reuse the same M9 model from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]''.

==Beretta 93R (Mockup)==
The "M93 Raffica", classified under the Machine Pistol category, is a Beretta semi-automatic pistol converted to resemble and function like a [[Beretta 93R]]. Real 93Rs have a frame-mounted safety and a more angular slide, all of which the in-game model lacks. It seems likely that the developers took the base 92SB model and added 93R parts to it and made it shoot three-round bursts. It is attached with a skeletal stock and what looks like an attachment rail for a flashlight/LAM. The in-game model has an extended magazine but still only holds 15 rounds in singleplayer, though in multiplayer it holds a more appropriate 20 rounds.

In singleplayer, it can be found in an armory in "The Gulag", in a basement armory in "Loose Ends", and in the "Museum" level. It is unlocked at level 38 in multiplayer, and benefits from low recoil, high damage, fast reload times, and instantaneous ADS.

===Remastered version===
The remastered version still depicts a mockup, this time using the base model of the Beretta M9 as opposed to the 92SB from before. The hammer is still in half-cocked position.

==Colt Anaconda==
The [[Colt Anaconda]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer, called ".44 Magnum" in-game. It is the signature weapon of Lieutenant General Shepard (voiced by [[Lance Henriksen]]), which he uses at several key points in the campaign.

In a cutscene in "Loose Ends", General Shepard pulls out his Anaconda to shoot someone despite the holstered Anaconda on his model still visibly in the holster, as though he has another big Anaconda tucked in the back of his pants. During a cutscene in "Endgame", the cylinder rotates counterclockwise when General Shepard pulls back the hammer, and then incorrectly rotates clockwise again before the gun fires when Shepard pulls the trigger.

It is a useful weapon in multiplayer mode due to its quick draw and power, and the fact that the Anaconda will fire as fast as the player can press the fire key. As you probably suspected, the Anaconda is not available with a suppressor or extended magazines as other handguns. Instead of 75 kills, the player has to reach 100 kills with this weapon to unlock the tactical knife attachment.

Interestingly, the barrel of the Anaconda on the weapon's world model reads "BRAD ALLENCONDA", a reference to Brad Allen, the head weapon designer of Infinity Ward.

===Remastered version===
As the remaster only includes the campaign story, the ".44 Magnum" is only available in the Museum bonus level outside of its appearances with General Shepard.

==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
A [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] with a black barrel and slide and chrome frame is a sidearm available in MW2. It is equipped with Trijicon 3-dot sights, the current production barrel with a Picatinny rail, an unusable underbarrel SureFire X400 Ultra WeaponLight laser aiming module, and (rather bizarrely) an [[M1911]]-esque linearly-sliding trigger with 3 holes in it.

It is the sidearm of arms dealer Alejandro Rojas' assistant and the Brazilian Militia. Surprisingly, quite a few Americans, most notably Corporal Dunn (voiced by [[Barry Pepper]]), use this gun as their preferred sidearm, despite real Rangers never having the Desert Eagle issued to them; in fact, the Desert Eagle has never been issued as a standard sidearm by any military whatsoever, having only ever been used by Poland's JW GROM premier special forces unit and Portugal's elite Special Operations Group police unit, in very limited service.

In some cases, the old model from COD4 will be used in place of the new model.

Similarly to the Anaconda, 100 kills are required to unlock the tactical knife, and no suppressor or extended magazines are available.

This is much more logical than in the original where he continues to fire double(!!) the amount of bullets the mag itself can hold.]]

===Remastered version===
The Desert Eagle returns in the Remaster in the same configuration from the original only differing in that the SureFire X400 Ultra WeaponLight is being replaced with what appears to be a Sun Optics flashlight and laser/Streamlight TLR 2 HL G hybrid. A gold Desert Eagle reusing the ''Modern Warfare Remastered'' model is present as an easter egg in the level "Of Their Own Accord". This time the pistol's hammer is correctly cocked.
[[File:MW2R DEagle (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the other remastered handguns, the Desert Eagle is chambered when initially equipped.

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] appears in the game in a [[Glock pistol series#Glock 17 (Converted to Full Auto)|full auto configuration]], with a 33-round magazine (50 if equipped with Extended Magazine), placed in the Machine Pistol category. Although it is called "G18", referring to the select fire [[Glock 18]] manufactured by the same company, it has no selector switch, and the frame is olive-drab, which was only featured on their semi-automatic designs. It is a 3rd generation Glock, but modeled without any finger grooves; the magazine release is also missing. The rear sight is a fictional hybrid; it features both the factory-standard Glock white square U-notch, as well as two white dots like on a 3-dot aftermarket Glock sight.

In singleplayer, the converted Glock 17 is used by the Brazilian Militia, Task Force 141, wounded Shadow Company soldiers if they are in "Last Stand" (a state in which a character is downed and can only use their sidearms, which sporadically happens to AI enemies in singleplayer and is a perk in multiplayer), and on occasion, Middle Eastern OpFor. The weapons is also available in several Spec-Ops missions.

The weapon's extended magazine is present most of the time in first and third person, but disappears the weapon is shown in TF 141 characters' holsters, replaced by a flush-fit non-extended magazine. This is most evident on Soap: in "Takedown", Soap holds his G18 on Rojas with the extended magazine easily visible, but his G18 has a regular magazine in his holster in other levels.

While the weapon is held one-handed in first person, it is held with a two-handed grip in third person. When equipped with Extended Magazines, the starting ammo without Scavenger is 49 bullets plus the 50 in the gun itself. This means that if the weapon is emptied and reloaded, it will not have a full magazine.

It is unlocked at level 22 (Master Sergeant) in multiplayer. The weapon has a high rate of fire, moderate recoil, but it is possible to utilize the recoil to get headshots. When paired with akimbo and extended magazine attachments, it is especially accurate and deadly, and is an effective sidearm.

===Glock 18C (remastered version)===
The remastered version correctly depicts a [[Glock 18]], specifically the Glock 18C with compensator cuts. It is also held with two hands rather than one. It still incorrectly holds 32 rounds in the 33-round magazine and features the same fictional Glock u-notch and 3-dot hybrid rear sight as the original. The model appears to be an updated version from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare]]''.

====LA-10u/PEQ Handheld Laser Designator====
In the remastered version of the level "Exodus", the laser designator function used to guide supporting fire from "Badger 2-1" is now done by its own unique gadget rather than a visible red beam originating from barrel of whatever weapon Ramirez wields. It comprises of a tan Glock frame with something resembling a laser-based trainer system that replaces the pistol's slide; it seems to be an imitation of the LA-10u/PEQ Handheld Laser Designator.

==Heckler & Koch USP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch USP#Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP45]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', appearing in singleplayer and multiplayer. It still features the incorrect extended barrel, and has an unremovable, unusable Viridian X5L Gen 1 combo module. It is one of the main sidearms of the Russian forces, including Ultranationalists and Internal Troops, as well as Task Force 141.

In single player, the USP is always equipped with the tactical knife attachment. In multiplayer, the USP is unlocked at level 4 (Private First Class) and is an effective sidearm overall. It has a magazine capacity of 12 rounds, and 18 rounds with the extended magazines attachment. It can be equipped with a suppressor.

The usage of the USP by the Russians is highly inaccurate, given Russian doctrine that focuses on using domestic weapons, guns like the [[Makarov PM]] and the [[MP-443 Grach]] would be more accurate.

==M1911 variant==
The same [[M1911]] variant (closest to a [[Springfield Armory 1911 Series|Springfield Armory Loaded 1911]]) given to Soap by Captain Price in the first game during the final level "Game Over" reappears in the second game. It is carried by Soap, visible on his holster in "Cliffhanger" level. Its appearance is more story than gameplay-important. Some Ghillie snipers and FSB troops are also seen with it holstered, though they never use them and tend to switch to a Heckler & Koch USP45 that magically appears. One militia member also carries one during a cutscene.

It is only usable in the museum bonus level, where it possesses a bug in its reloading animation; when emptied, there is a noticeable pause of a few seconds before the reload animation plays out. In multiplayer, when the player is using a sniper rifle as their primary weapon, on an arctic or desert type map, the M1911 will appear in either the player's holster or on their belt.

===Remastered version===
When Soap meets Price in the remastered version of "The Gulag", he is seen holding the M1911 with a teacup grip. This is strange, considering that he used a more appropriate stance in the original game.

==Brügger & Thomet MP9==
The [[Brügger & Thomet MP9]] is found in-game, categorized as a Machine Pistol, and known as the TMP, the original version manufactured by Steyr. The weapon features a scope rail, an olive lower receiver, ghost ring sights, and unused side rails. It is often seen in singleplayer, where it is used by Middle Eastern OpFor, Russian Airport Security Police, Makarov's Ultranationalists, and Shadow Company, and is often dual-wielded (with an expected drop in accuracy); a few unique cases allow the player to acquire akimbo MP9s with red dot sights attached, a combination that is impossible in multiplayer given the sights on dual-wielded weapons cannot be used.

In singleplayer, the MP9 has an incorrect 32-round magazine, while in multiplayer it has a correct but small 15 round magazine (which can be emptied in about 1 second, and only increased to 25 with Extended Mags). It has low recoil and great accuracy when aiming down its sights. It is unlocked at level 58, making it the final machine pistol unlocked, but it is hugely unpopular on account of its absurdly small magazine size, high unlock rank, poor hip-fire accuracy and low damage. This results in it being overlooked in favor of other, better-performing and easier to acquire machine pistols.

Although of Swiss origin, the use of the Brügger & Thomet MP9 by the Russian Airport Security during the "No Russian" level is correct, as it is in use by the FSB Alpha counterterrorist unit and by Russian law enforcement in real life.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] appears simply as "P90" in MW2. It is used by Russians and US Shadow Company members in single player. Unlocked at level 24 in multiplayer, the P90 is a popular choice for the same reason as in real life: it is compact, has a large capacity and low recoil, does good damage and has a high rate of fire.

It's another questionable weapon choice for the Russian Army, a more accurate choice would be the PP-2000 already in the game or the [[AS_Val#SR-2_Veresk|SR-2 Veresk]].

==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
The [[MP5K]], equipped with a custom Rail Interface System and a threaded barrel, appears in ''Modern Warfare 2''. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian Militia, Middle Eastern OpFor, Rangers, Task Force 141, Russian Internal Troops / FSB, and some Russian soldiers / Ultranationalists. It comes with a foregrip in multiplayer, but in singleplayer this is absent, which presumably makes sense to somebody. It is often seen with a Red Dot Sight. The world model depicts it with a 15-round magazine, though the first person and Create A Class images both show the correct 30-round magazine.

A suppressed version, the "MP5KSD", is available in the campaign mission "Loose Ends" and in the Spec Ops missions "Hidden" and "Estate Takedown". The real 'SD' suffix is used by H&K for their integrally suppressed MP5 variants, which the in-game weapon is not. In cases where the suppressed MP5K is paired with a red dot sight (as seen in the campaign levels "The Enemy of My Enemy" and "Just Like Old Times" and in several of the Spec Ops missions), the weapon is more appropriately labeled "MP5K Silenced Red Dot".

===Remastered version===
The remaster uses an HK slap-style empty reload for the MP5K, contrarily to the original game which involved pulling the charging handle after swapping magazines.
[[File:MW2R MP5K (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the original game, the equip animation shows the MP5K getting chambered, although the bolt never moves and seems to be a flat texture here.]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is a submachine gun appearing in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Like the MP5K, Picatinny rails were added to the weapon. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian police, Russian military, Shadow Company, and Task Force 141. In multiplayer, it can be equipped with extended magazines like all the other SMGs. It incorrectly holds 32 rounds in multiplayer by default, but correctly holds 25 rounds in singleplayer. It is insanely popular online due to suffering a negligible damage decrease when suppressed. Interestingly, the front sight is removed when optics are attached, which is only possible by way of completely chopping it off.

A more appropriate alternative Russian-made firearm in this category would be the PP-19 Bizon, the PP-90M1 or the PP-19-01 Vityaz submachine guns, which are used by military and police forces in the Russian Federation, including various Spetsnaz units and counter-terrorist and law enforcement units.

Nevertheless, the third-person model is textured correctly.]]

===Remastered version===
The UMP in the remaster has different markings on the receiver, and for some reason the reloading animations have been completely redone, without an HK slap-style reload like the MP5K.
[[File:MW2R UMP45 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Initially-equipping the UMP results in a rather awkward palming of the charging handle.]]

==IMI Mini Uzi==
The [[Mini Uzi]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian militiamen, Middle Eastern OpFor, and rarely by Makarov's Ultranationalists in the mission "Enemy of My Enemy". Near the end of the game, the player gets to fire an Uzi during a boat chase. Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', it is incorrectly shown with a reciprocating charging handle.

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] appears in the game and is categorized as a Machine Pistol. Despite being a rare example of a modern Russian firearm in the original ''Modern Warfare'' trilogy, it is only ever used by Russian Paratroopers and Makarov's Ultranationalists as a backup sidearm, most notably in the injured "last stand" state. Interestingly, like the Glock 17, the enemies fire the weapon in semi-auto in last stand, and the enemies will usually discharge a few rounds when they are shot in last stand. The PP-2000 can be equipped with assorted sights, scopes and accessories, including a thermal sight exclusive to the level "The Only Easy Day ... Was Yesterday". It is an all around effective weapon in multiplayer due to its high rate of fire and low recoil, the weapon's only drawback is its 20 round magazine.

===Remastered version===
In the remaster, the player character actually grasps the front grip of the PP-2000 rather than firing the weapon one-handed. When equipped, the safety is no longer flicked off either; the character simply charges the PP-2000.

==TDI Vector==
The [[TDI Vector|Prototype TDI Vector]], fitted with a Gen 1 stock and using KRISS 25+ round extended Glock magazines that hold 30 rounds in gameplay, appears as an SMG in MW2. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian Troops, Shadow Company, and occasionally by Task Force 141 and Brazilian Militiamen. It is highly incorrect for the Russian Ultranationalists (except Makarov's gun-smuggling terrorists) to use the TDI Vector as a Personal Defense Weapon, as it is a weapon of US origin. A more likely alternative would be the PP-2000 featured in the game or the [[SR-2#SR-2_Veresk|SR2-Veresk]].

It is generally fitted with a reflex sight, and it uses a suppressor in some levels. Its default finish is the two-tone black and tan finish like the real-life prototype; in "Just Like Old Times", Soap's Vector has a unique black finish.

As with some of the other in-game weapons, the iron sights have Infinity Ward trademarks on them.

===Remastered version===
The Vector returns in much a largely unchanged appearance in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. The trigger group and pistol grip now have the same finish as the rest of the upper receiver though. In some missions, the Vector's lower has a desert camo finish, which was not seen in the original campaign story.

=Assault Rifles & Battle Rifles=
==AK Hybrid==
A heavily customized AK hybrid appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as the "AK-47". It has the milled receiver of an [[AK-47]], but with the ribbed top cover, 90 degree gas block, and front sight block of an [[AK-74]]. Additionally, it weirdly has one single rivet at the bottom rear of the receiver; its position is somewhat similar to the bottom rivet of a [[Draco Pistol]]. It is fitted with an LHV47 (or its airsoft clone from King Arms) railed handguard, IO Inc SCOP0040 scope mount, T6 stock adapter, Vltor IMod Stock, and a [[Saiga 12]] breaching muzzle brake. It feeds from Finnish AK polymer magazines. Overall, it appears the whole build has been based on some airsoft set like the G&P AK Tactical Conversion Kit which contains replicas of the listed above items.

In singleplayer, it is used by almost all enemy factions, including the Russian Military, Ultranationalists, and the Brazilian Militia. Most AK-47s are seen with arctic or desert camouflage, although some in the level "Loose Ends" have digital and woodland camouflage. It is the last weapon unlocked in multiplayer at level 70, and as such does not see much use as most players prefer to Prestige instead.

Its depiction is wildly inaccurate for the Russian Army and even Makarov's Ultranationalists; these groups would be more likely use the [[AK-74M]] or possibly some rifles of the [[AK-100 series]]. At the time of the game's making, the Russians weren't considering modernizing the old AKs let alone use aftermarket US made accessories, however, Kalashnikov Concern introduced the universal upgrade package for AKs in 2015 which interestingly almost coincides with the game's 2016 setting.

===Remastered version===
The remastered model resembles the previous one, but the AK-74 style gas block and front sight block have been replaced by those of an [[AKM]]. Additionally, the weapon now has Yugoslavian "U-R-J" selector markings on the right side and the original IO Inc SCOP0040 mount has been replaced with a BP-02 mount.

==Colt M4A1 Carbine==
The [[M4A1]] is one of the most common weapons in the game. The in-game model features an A.R.M.S. #50C-TR S.I.R. system, flip-up PRI front sight gas block, A.R.M.S. #40L rear back up iron sights and a triple loop ambi sling adapter receiver end plate. The rail covers, lower receiver, stock, and pistol grip are all in tan. A KAC foregrip is fitted in first-person only, for some reason. The serrations on the back of the pistol grip confirms it to be an A2 but it is depicted without a finger groove and bottom toe.

In singleplayer, it is the first weapon provided to the player. It is primarily used by the U.S. Army Rangers and Task Force 141, including Soap. During "No Russian", Vladimir Makarov and his terrorist group are also armed with the M4A1. The M4A1 is commonly equipped with the [[M203 grenade launcher]], often alongside other attachments. A suppressed M4A1 is available in the level "Museum".

The rifles in-game are apparently Colt-manufactured, with Colt's "prancing pony" logo stamped on the left side of the lower receiver on the in-game model. Curiously, the M4A1 held by Soap in one of the promotional images has a Bushmaster stamp on it.

The rifle is modeled after the Tokyo Marui M4 S-System airsoft rifle and the STANAG magazines found in the webbing of some characters are actually modeled after airsoft magazines as evidenced by the circular opening at the top of the magazine.

The same goes for the [[M16A4]].]]

===Remastered version===
The remastered M4A1 has the fire select actually on full-auto, the pistol grip is now a properly modelled A2, the castle nut is now tan and the receiver end plate is now standard and the right side of the rifle is no longer a low resolution mirror of the left, but is properly textured. Some M4A1s issued and used in levels feature the laser-designating function sport AN/PEQ-2 IR designators from ''Modern Warfare Remastered.'' The empty reload also shows the operator smacking the bolt release tab rather than thumbing it as with the original game.

The STANAG magazines found in the webbing of some characters are once again modeled after airsoft magazines.

==Colt M16A4==
The [[M16A4]] appears in the game as a burst-firing assault rifle. In singleplayer, it is seen in the hands of the U.S. Army Rangers and Task Force 141. Like the M4A1, many of these have M203 grenade launchers. It is equipped with the IMI Defense MRS-M handguard which is depicted with slightly misplaced and fewer vent holes.

Just like in ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', when the M16 is mounted with optics, the front sight and the gas block are removed. This would render the gun unable to fire automatically after the first shot. The shooter would have to manually load a round into the chamber by racking the bolt, effectively making the gun a bolt action.

[[File:382.png|thumb|none|600px|A US Army Ranger fires his M16A4 fitted with ACOG. Note that the front sight is removed, and that the right side is just a mirror of the left.]]

===Remastered version===
The remastered M16A4 reuses the same reload animations from the ''Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare'' version instead of sharing animations with the M4A1, as is the case in the original ''MW2''. It has proper Safe/Semi/Burst selector markings, but the barrel incorrectly has an M203 groove, like in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]''. Like the M4A1 in the remaster, the right side of the rifle is no longer a low resolution mirror of the left but properly modeled. The front sight also disappears completely when optics are attached, as in the original game.

==FAMAS F1==
The [[FAMAS F1]] fitted with top rail is seen in the game. It only fires in 3-round bursts, and incorrectly holds 30 rounds in a 25-round FAMAS magazine. In singleplayer, it is mostly used by the Russian military and Russian Ultranationalists. Some FAMASes with a unique "White Tape Camo" can occasionally be found in singleplayer.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000 Tactical]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, the F2000 is used by the Ultranationalists (another questionable choice, being Belgian in origin), commonly with thermal sights. The F2000 can incorrectly mount the [[M203]] grenade launcher instead of the [[FN GL-1]].

Despite being an assault rifle, it behaves more like an SMG: it has a very high rate of fire (chewing through its 30 round magazine in less than three seconds), substantial recoil, and very low damage without Stopping Power. Its unpredictable recoil and low damage makes it weak at medium to long ranges, but its rate of fire allows it to excel in close quarters.

Its Create-A Class image shows the removable forearm pushed back where the trigger guard would be.

===Remastered version===
The charging handle is correctly used during empty reloads in the remastered version.

[[File:MW2R F2000 (9).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The F2000's right side.]]

==FN F2000==
The F2000 Tactical has a unique Red Dot Sight attachment model based on the 1.6x scope of the original [[FN F2000]], but it differs from the real F2000 scope in that it is mounted on top of the F2000 Tactical's raised Picatinny rails, and leaves the rails exposed on the sides; the original F2000 had a lower, shorter rail for mounting the scope that is completely hidden by the scope shroud. As such, the resultant in-game model of the F2000 Tactical with the pseudo-F2000-scope is a shoddy approximation of the original scoped F2000, and has many differences in detail.

As mentioned, the pseudo-F2000-scope is also incorrectly portrayed as a red dot sight rather than a conventional scope. Strangely, the EMP has no effect on the sight. (For extra trivia, the EMP does disable ACOGs, but this is incorrect because the ACOG scope doesn't uses any batteries and should still function despite an EMP)

The original F2000 is also the weapon shown on the F2000's kill icon.

==FN FAL==
The [[FN FAL]] appears in the game, equipped with a receiver mounted A.R.M.S #18 M21/14. It has the ribbed metal handguard from StG 58, a ramp rear sight from FAL, and the charging handle and 30-round magazines from [[DSA SA58 OSW|DSArms SA58 FAL rifles]]. The stock is a hybrid between the standard stock and the humped stock. The weapon is locked to semi-auto. Its charging handle is incorrectly animated to reciprocate when firing.

In singleplayer, it is commonly used by the Brazilian Militia, and sometimes by the Middle Eastern OpFor and the Russian military. It is usually equipped with either a KAC Masterkey or an ACOG scope in singleplayer. In Multiplayer, the 30-round magazines hold only 20 rounds by default, and only go up to 30 with the Extended Mags attachment.

===Remastered version===
The FAL returns largely unchanged in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'' although it only holds 20 shots in the 30-round magazines, as in the original game's multiplayer. The charging handle also no longer reciprocates when firing.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The [[SCAR-H]] appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as a high-damage, low rate of fire assault rifle. The in-game model is an older 2nd generation model, with the straight cheek rest on the stock. Its rear sights is chopped down, and the iron sights have Infinity Ward trademarks (like the Vector and some other weapons). It is also mounted backwards. In multiplayer, it correctly holds 20 rounds per magazine, while in singleplayer it holds 30; it can be assumed that, similar to the FN FAL, all SCAR-H's in singleplayer are equipped with the "Extended Magazines" attachment.

In singleplayer, it is one of the primary rifles of Task Force 141, U.S. Army Rangers, and Shadow Company soldiers. A unique variant with a vertical foregrip can be found in the singleplayer level "S.S.D.D." and the Spec Ops mission "The Pit". In multiplayer, its kill icon in the killfeed is also shown with a vertical foregrip, despite said attachment being unavailable for the SCAR in multiplayer.

[[File:MW2 SCARrender.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A wall of scans showing off the US Army's indomitable arsenal of pump shotguns slung under SCAR-Hs.]]

===Remastered version===
The SCAR-H is now modeled after the third generation production model. The 30-round capacity from the original singleplayer has been decreased to the more common 20-rounder in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. Additionally, the bolt correctly locks to the rear when a magazine is emptied, and the fire selector is correctly set to full-auto. The rear sight is no longer backwards, but it is mounted much further forwards in order to retain the same placement for the rear post.

There is a small bug with the SCAR-H fitted with the KAC Masterkey attachment: when the shotgun is emptied and is about to be reloaded, the SCAR-H's bolt briefly locks back then instantly returns forward.

==IMI Tavor TAR-21==
The [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] appears in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, the TAR-21 is used by Russian soldiers and Task Force 141, almost always used with kind of optical sight or scope. Its kill icon always shows it with a Holographic Sight (an EOTech holographic sight).

==Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR==
The [[M14 Rifle#Mk 14 Mod 0/1 Enhanced Battle Rifle|Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR]] appears in the game, almost always with a scope attached. In singleplayer, it appears as the standard weapon for Task Force 141 snipers, and is referred to as the "M14 EBR", the US Army designation. This seems to be the weapon of choice for Captain MacTavish.

It is the last sniper rifle to be unlocked in multiplayer, where it is listed incorrectly as an "M21 EBR", likely to remind players of the actual [[M21]] in ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]''.

An unscoped Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR can be found in the Spec-Ops mission "Breach & Clear", though it still has the exact same zoom level as when equipped with an ACOG. It is the only time the player gets to use it with iron sights.

==Magpul Masada==
The [[Magpul Masada]] appears in the game under the name "ACR", actually the name of its successors manufactured by Bushmaster and Remington. It is a Gen 2 Masada, characterized by its forward-mounted and ambidextrous charging handle. The handle itself is the early version which was seen at the 2007 SHOT Show and can be found on A&K airsoft versions. The front sight is loosely based on the Masada's front sight, while the rear sight appears to be loosely based on the Magpul MBUS. The rifle also has a Masada handguard with rails attached on the sides and a 10.5" barrel, and uses 30-round Magpul PMags.

In singleplayer, the Masada is commonly used by Task Force 141 and Shadow Company. It first appears in "Cliffhanger", where it is equipped with a suppressor, reflex sight (with more zoom than a normal reflex sight), heartbeat monitor, and a unique arctic camouflage not found on any other weapon and not available in multiplayer. Masadas with [[M203]] grenade launchers can be found in "Takedown" and "Loose Ends", the former having an ACOG scope, and the latter having a holographic sight (which has the zoom level of an ACOG, for some reason). A Masada with the same attachments as the one in "Cliffhanger" but with a unique matte black finish is found in "Just Like Old Times". It has very low recoil even in full automatic, making it a versatile all-range weapon.

[[File:MW2AR2.png|thumb|none|600px|The unique snow camo Masada used by Roach in the mission "Cliffhanger". For some reason it also gets a unique ammo pool which maxes out at 840 instead of 630, despite it being impossible to get more ammo for it in this mission.]]
[[File:MW2-ACR Unique.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The unique matte black Masada. Prior to the "primary gunfighter" perk of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops 2|Black Ops 2]]'', it was impossible to create such a weapon in any of the games' multiplayer, and weapons with three attachments were almost always restricted to being starting weapons in the campaign. Some of these campaign-only weapon configurations also have special boosts: these black Masadas in "Just Like Old Times", for example, have a maximum ammo count of 1,260 instead of 630.]]

===Remington ACR (remastered version)===
The prototype Masada from the original has been replaced with a proper [[Remington ACR]] in the remaster. It retains the same pseudo-Masada front sight and pseudo-Magpul rear MBUS complete with the inappropriately sticking out handguard pin, though this time around it has a right side mounted non-ambidextrous charging handle which is modeled after the production version of the ACR handle. A modelling goof leaves the magazines sticking much further out of the magwell than they should.

==Steyr AUG A2==
In the single-player campaign, the "AUG HBAR" takes the appearance of a [[Steyr AUG A2]], mostly evidenced by the 20" barrel, whereas in multiplayer it is actually modeled after an AUG HBAR-T. It has a 30-round magazine and is equipped with either a rail-mounted version of the Swarovski AUG A1 scope or a Red Dot Sight. It is used mainly by Russian Ultranationalists. In real life, the Steyr AUG (A1) was used by VDV and by FSB Spetsnaz units (now out of service).

In multiplayer, the AUG A2 appears as the kill icon for the AUG HBAR, implying that like the L85, it was supposed to appear in multiplayer as an assault rifle before being reworked into the AUG HBAR as an LMG in multiplayer.

[[File:MW2-AUG Cpt Price.jpg|thumb|none|600px|On the plus side, he does understand how to use the foregrip; Captain Price, on the other hand, is still figuring things out.]]

===Remastered version===
The AUG A2 still appears under the "AUG HBAR" moniker in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered.'' The remastered AUG is a hybrid, with most of the features of an A2, but the bolt release of an A3; this hybridization can be increased further with the addition of the A1's Swarovski scope, which is now correctly depicted as an integral part of the receiver instead of a rail-mounted attachment. It also has a winter camo finish in the snow missions, unlike the original game.

As there is no multiplayer for the remaster, the actual LMG variant cannot be found.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
In what might be the most infamous depiction of a somewhat obscure sniper rifle in any media ever, the [[Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention|Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as a usable sniper rifle. The rifle, known as simply "Intervention" in-game, is the only usable bolt-action sniper rifle in the game. It has an unusable AN/PEQ-2 laser unit mounted on the Picatinny rail just forward of the scope, which disappears when an ACOG Scope is used.

In singleplayer, it is used by US Army Rangers on several occasions, and is Soap and Captain Price's primary weapon in "Just Like Old Times", the second to final mission. The intro of that mission describes the CheyTac as an anti-materiel rifle; while the real weapon is effective in that role against some types of armor, it is mainly used as an anti-personnel system. In multiplayer, while its magazine size is a mere 5 rounds, the Intervention deals incredibly high damage, making it a deadly sight in multiplayer.

The depiction of the Intervention within ''Modern Warfare 2'' propelled the weapon into relative infamy; while the weapon itself was never deemed as "overpowered", a number of factors displayed in this game specifically (the overuse of the weapon in multiplayer, its distinctive sounds and animations, the use of hitmarkers and the general stereotype of ''Call of Duty'' generally being enjoyed by loud, skill-lacking, faux-MLG "tryhards") has made the Intervention a staple of "montage parodies", along with the infamous acts of "no-scoping" and "quick-scoping". The popularity of the weapon has allowed the Intervention to return in three other games in the franchise: ''[[Call of Duty Online]]'' (as the "CheyTacM200"), ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare]]'' (as the "TF-141"), and ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]'' (as the "S-Tac Aggressor").

===Remastered version===
The ''MW2R'' CheyTac M200 seems to be a more detailed version from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare]]'', and has similar initial draw/inspect animations.
[[File:MW2R M200 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ramirez holds the Intervention. Note how it is held in a far more conventional manner now, with the left hand on the handguard, like MWR's "S-Tac Aggressor".]]

[[File:MW2R M200 (5).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Inspecting the CheyTac results in a cool brass-check, similar to the M40A3 in the previous remaster.]]

==Barrett M82A1==
The [[Barrett M82A1]] appears as "Barrett .50cal" in the game. It has a shortened barrel, though it is not as short as the M82CQ. It has a Mr. Yuk sticker on the scope cover. The weapon is incorrectly depicted with ejection port openings on both sides of the receiver.

In singleplayer, during the level "Of Their Own Accord", an emplaced M82A1 with variable-zoom thermal sight is used by Russian snipers covering the Mall (the stretch from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument to the Capital) and is temporarily commandeered by Ramirez and his squad to take out enemy soldiers firing on evac helicopters with Javelins.

In multiplayer, it is the default sniper rifle. Oddly, it has worse overall stats than the "M21 EBR" or the WA2000. Amusingly, the weapon can be fired nearly as quickly as the trigger can be tapped, with surprisingly little recoil for dumping 10 .50 BMG rounds in ''under a second''.

==Walther WA 2000==
The rare [[Walther WA 2000]] is found in the game. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian snipers in "Loose Ends" and by Shadow Company troops in the level "Enemy of My Enemy", highly inaccurate for both given the WA2000's limited production run. While it holds only 6 rounds, it is very accurate and has low recoil.

==SVD Dragunov==
The [[SVD Dragunov]] is only featured in the singleplayer campaign, used by Russian Ultranationalists and Brazilian Militiamen. It can be found with winter camouflages in the snow levels and woodland camo in "Loose Ends" and "The Enemy of My Enemy".

A poster of a SVD Dragunov is seen in the Multiplayer map "Salvage" in a small house, along with posters of Makarov PM and AKM.

=Machine Guns=
==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun is found in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by the US Army Rangers, Task Force 141, Shadow Company, and Makarov's terrorists. It is often seen equipped with a heartbeat sensor. In Special Ops, the enemy Juggernauts wield the M240 machine gun. The M240 also can be seen (unusable) mounted on the M1 Abrams tank.

The M240 is depicted with a bottom-mounted 100-round belt box; this is impossible in reality, for several reasons. For one, the M240 does not have an attachment point for an ammo box to attach to on its underside; the M240 is typically issued with belt boxes that are fully separate from the gun, while the US Army issues a soft M240 belt bag that is attached to the side of M240. Secondly, such an attachment point would block the M240's casing ejection port, located on the bottom where the in-game belt box is attached. The in-game belt box itself is an [[M249]] belt box with grooves resembling a [[PKM]] belt box.

The M240 deals the lowest damage out of all the machine guns (despite being chambered for the largest round), but compensates it for having the highest rate of fire in its class. It suffers from substantial recoil, restricting it to short and medium range.

===Remastered version===
The reload animation has been changed to show the charging handle being worked at both the start and end of reloads, and it still uses an incorrect M249-like belt box.

==Heckler & Koch MG4==
The [[Heckler & Koch MG4]] is used by the Russian Military and the Shadow Company in singleplayer. In multiplayer, the MG4 is unlocked at level 16. It possesses a moderately high rate of fire and sub-par damage (which can be buffed with Stopping Power), but is accurate and has low recoil.

===Remastered version===
In the remaster, the charging handle is unfolded the whole time, and is properly animated when reloading.

==L86A1 LSW==
The [[L86A1|L86A1 Light Support Weapon]] appears as the "L86 LSW", identified as the A1 by its round charging handle. The weapon is modified with a long L85 handguard, a barrel mounted carrying handle from the M240, and small Picatinny rails on each side of the receiver. The dovetail mount at the top of the receiver is replaced with a strip of Picatinny rails. The weapon uses a Chinese MDG3 120 round drum mag that holds only 100 rounds in gameplay.

It appears only once throughout the single-player campaign, during the defense of the safehouse in the level "Loose Ends". It also appears in the Special Ops mission "Estate Takedown". In multiplayer, it holds the distinction of being the weapon with the highest DPS (damage per second) with Stopping Power in the game. This is offset by obstructive iron sights and high recoil unless a grip is attached.

The killfeed icon of the weapon shows an [[#Enfield L85|L85 with a SUSAT]], likely indicating that the L86 LSW was supposed to be a L85 at one point in development.

==RPD==
The [[RPD]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian Militia, Middle Eastern OpFor, and some Russian troops; the latter is incorrect, as while the RPD is Russian in origin, it was phased out during the 1960s in favor of the [[PKM]].

===Remastered version===
The RPD now features a side-swinging scope mount (based on airsoft versions of KV-04S combined with Zenit mounts used for the [[PKP Pecheneg]]) that is moved out of the way when reloading. Like in ''Modern Warfare Remastered'', the charging handle is correctly pulled after replacing the belt.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
In multiplayer, the "AUG HBAR" LMG takes the form of a correct [[Steyr AUG HBAR]] (Heavy Barrel), in contrast to the singleplayer, where it appears as an AUG A2. It is specifically modeled after the HBAR-T variant used in the designated marksman rifle role, as it has a RIS rail. It is equipped with an unusable bipod, a barrel mounted carrying handle from the M240, a 42-round magazine, and a 24.4" barrel. The weapon strangely lacks the standard AUG foregrip by default, though equipping the Foregrip attachment reattaches it.

The weapon is unlocked at level 32. True to its nature, the AUG HBAR functions more like an assault rifle than an LMG: it has the fastest reload, has good accuracy and high damage, but suffers from recoil at long distances unless a Grip is used and the weapon is burst fired.

==AA-12 CQB==
The [[AA-12]] is available in the game. It is shown with a custom folding charging handle and custom sights, consisting of a rail mounted rear sight and a flip up front sight. It uses an 8-round box magazine. Using the Extended Magazines attachment in multiplayer beefs up the capacity to 16, though the magazine model remains unchanged; real AA-12 magazine options include 8 round box magazines, or 20 and 32 round drum magazines.

In singleplayer, it is used by the Russian Military (despite being American in origin) and the Shadow Company. It also appears outside the obstacle course in the first level once the player has run through it once, and a suppressed version with a heartbeat sensor appears in the Spec-Ops mission "Acceptable Losses". The AA-12 has an absurdly high rate of fire in singleplayer and Spec Ops, at around 650-700 RPM, but fires at a more convincing (but still slightly excessive) 400 RPM in multiplayer.

===Remastered version===
The AA-12 in ''Campaign Remastered'' retains the same configuration from the original complete with the same rail mounted sights. It is also shown operating with a closed bolt, which is only the case for a production run of semi-automatic civilian models in 2018-2019. However, it is depicted with the proper AA-12 charging handle instead of the custom folding one shown in the original. It also has the restricted rate of fire of the multiplayer version from MW2.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer, referred under its US Military designation M1014. It has a olive-green finished barrel and receiver, and a Surefire triple-rail foregrip (like the one installed on the British L128A1) with an unusable under-barrel flashlight. The barrel also appears with a flat sight plane in first person, which is unusual for the M4. The weapon is modeled with a civilian 4-shot magazine tube; like MW1, the M1014 has a 7-round capacity in singleplayer (the capacity of the military version), and has the correct modeled capacity in multiplayer (extended to 6 rounds with Extended Mags).

It is used by the US Military and several Brazilian Militiamen in singleplayer; the player character Roach also starts with one in "Takedown".

===Remastered version===
In the remastered version, the player character correctly inserts a round in the chamber during empty reloads, and releases the bolt before loading successive shells into the tube.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[Franchi SPAS-12]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer. It is shown with the stock unfolded, and is used in pump-action mode only. In singleplayer, it is used by the Russian Military, Shadow Company, and Task Force 141, usually with no attachments; it's a bit of an odd choice to say the least, as it was never issued by any military force (most of its sales being to police departments, its intended market), and went out of production in the year 2000.

Weirdly, the bolt is animated to cycle as the shotgun is fired (visible when aiming down sights), rather than when the player character works the pump after the shot. In singleplayer, fired shells can be seen ejecting when the gun cycles, but no shells are seen ejected in multiplayer.

[[File:MW2 SPAS (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Drawing the SPAS-12. No, the player character doesn't have their arm shoved through the middle of the stock; some of the game's hand and arm models have oversized features that clip through certain weapons, creating illusions and issues like this. One also has to wonder why it wasn't being stored with the stock folded...]]

[[File:MW2 SPAS (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pumping the shotgun after firing. Note the shut bolt; despite cycling when the weapon is fired, this doesn't move when the pump is worked. This makes the fact that the weapon is flipped over every time the action is cycled all the more bizarre, since all this really does is draw attention to the issue.]]
[[File:MW2 SPAS (5).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the SPAS-12, round by round. As in most games, this is done incorrectly; since the SPAS's bolt release (which is on the left side of the receiver) is also its carrier latch, it has to be held down in order to load in shells. The bolt release is also textured on the right side of the receiver due to the model being mirrored; the magazine catch, which is a differently shaped button that ''should'' be present on the right side of the receiver, is not modeled.]]
[[File:MW2 SPAS (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As is COD tradition, a pump is always required after the reload finishes, regardless if it is necessary, logical, or even if it actually does anything to the bolt. The flat object sticking out of the bottom of the receiver is the safety lever; the in-game SPAS is based off of the earlier FIE-imported models, with an 8-round magazine and a lever-type safety that had a tendency to be anything but (often failing to engage, and sometimes firing the shotgun when disengaged).]]
[[File:MW2-SPAS 3rd.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier with a SPAS-12 shotgun in the Museum level. His trigger discipline is admirable, though one has to wonder why he's giving the rear sight such a wide berth.]]

===Remastered version===
In ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'', the reloading process is done correctly. The SPAS-12 is upended with the off-hand holding down the bolt release button to allow the shells to be loaded into the tube (an extremely rare sight in video games featuring this weapon). The pumping handle is not racked during partial reloads, and on empty reloads the character inserts the first shell in the chamber before loading the remaining ones in the tube. The bolt's movement and shell ejection are also now properly linked to the pump's animation rather than triggering immediately on firing.

==Sears Ranger==
A sawed-off Sears Ranger is featured in the game. The weapon cannot aim down sights. It can be dual-wielded to make up for its 2-round capacity. It can fire both barrels at the same time; note that while the in-game model appropriately has two triggers, the Create-a-Class icon has only one. In singleplayer, it is used by some Brazilian Militiamen. The Ranger is shown being able to eject the spent shells when reloaded instead of having to dump them out manually.

==Sentinel Arms Striker-12 / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
The [[Sentinel Arms Striker-12]] (referred to as the "Striker") is a shotgun in the game, using a roughly 12" barrel. The weapon is hybridized with the large shell deflector and the automatic ejection capabilities of the [[Armsel Protecta]]; later models of the Striker-12 do indeed have these Protecta features, but they also have a rear drum advance lever, which the in-game model lacks. Beyond that, the in-game model is odd in a few more ways: the winding key is modeled as a weird spike (likely modeled after a particular gun where the winding key is stripped down to just its post), while the muzzle is modeled with a strange protrusion.

The reload animation depicts the thumb tab to the right of the drum as a drum advance lever, turning the drum whenever it is pressed; there is no evidence that the thumb tab can be used as a drum advance lever in reality, and the Striker-12 manual describes the tab to be a button used to open or close the ejection port. It should also be noted that ''Modern Warfare 2'' is one of the first video games to depict the ejection port button being used as a drum advance lever, and very likely influenced later games to ''also'' depict the ejection port button as a drum advance lever.

Possibly to offset its large magazine, the Striker reloads slowly and has lower damage per shot than the other shotguns, requiring 2-3 hits to kill without Stopping Power.

==Winchester Model 1887==
The [[Winchester Model 1887]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. It is modeled after the custom 1887 used by [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] in ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'', featuring a shortened barrel, no stock, no trigger guard, and an enlarged lever loop. The 1887 can be dual-wielded; when akimbo, the weapons are flip-cocked as in ''Terminator 2''.

In singleplayer, it is used by some Brazilian Militia members. In multiplayer, the 1887 used to have the highest effective range of all shotguns, and its sole "attachment" is Akimbo. As shotguns are largely hipfired anyway, dual wielding the 1887's basically doubled the damage without downsides, making them notorious in the community before a patch decreased their Akimbo range to be more comparable to the dual Rangers. Another patch also slightly decreased the single 1887's range, leaving it outclassed by the SPAS-12 in pretty much all aspects.

===Remastered version===
The remaster correctly involves loading the shells into the magazine tube, with only the first shell being inserted into the barrel during empty reloads. The weapon is now flip-cocked at the end of every reload (even when not dual-wielded).

==Winchester 1200==
The [[Winchester 1200]] shotgun from MW1 was seen in the hands of Russian Internal Troops in the game's trailer; it was apparently a placeholder, as in the final game it is only featured in the "Museum" bonus level.

== Saab Bofors Dynamics M136 AT4 ==
The [[M136 AT4]] appears in the game. The multiplayer version incorrectly fires guided rounds, and is referred to as "AT4-HS". "HS" most likely is abbreviated for "Heat-Seeking" and is also how it was able to guide its way to a moving aircraft but can still be counter measured by flares. The game also shows it as reloadable, seen when using it in multiplayer with the Scavenger perk.

==M79 grenade launcher==
The [[M79 grenade launcher]] appears as the "Thumper" in the game, and can be found in "The Hornet's Nest" and in some Spec Ops missions. It is available as a secondary weapon in multiplayer. In the former two gamemodes, it can be hipfired, but attempting to do so in MP will bring the sights into picture and fire the shot, similar to the RPG or AT4.

==FIM-92 Stinger==
The [[FIM-92 Stinger]] can be found in the levels "Wolverines!" and "The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday" in singleplayer, and is unlockable in multiplayer. The weapon can only be fired when locked onto helicopters or aircraft. It lacks the folding IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) antenna on the right side of the weapon, however this is not actually required to lock on to a target and fire the weapon.

==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin]] launcher is another available launcher for use in the game. While the multiplayer version is limited to one rocket in reserve (with the Scavenger perk), the singleplayer version has much more ammo. It is seen being used by the Russians, who seemingly appropriated them from military stockpiles upon invading US soil. The in-game Javelin has the erroneous ability to lock onto areas on the ground (not targets on the ground, but static objects or terrain), enabling it to function like a high-tech mortar.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is a launcher in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by all enemy forces. Like MW1, it is a powerful weapon, but is atrociously inaccurate at long ranges, apparently because the rocket's stabilizing fins do not deploy and as a result cause the rocket to fly erratically.

=Attachments=
==M203 Grenade Launcher (Airsoft)==
The airsoft model of the [[M203 grenade launcher]], distinguishable by its distinctive RIS mount and lack of a trigger guard, returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'' as the standard grenade launcher for every assault rifle except the [[AK-47]]. It features a new firing sound, and unlike in the multiplayer of the previous installment, the M203 does not prevent the use of Perk 1. The single-player mission "Team Player" is the first time the player gets to use the M203, attached to an [[M4A1]].

Like MW1, a full 40mm grenade stands in for the grenade's casing during the reload animation). However, the M79 grenade launcher's reload animation does show an independent grenade casing model existing in-game, meaning that the M203's reload animation is recycled entirely from MW1.
[[File:G%26P_M203.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Airsoft''' M203 made by G&P - (fake) 40x46mm. Note the RIS mount and removed trigger guard.]]

[[File:MW2 M203 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading another.]]

===Remastered version===
The launcher is still modeled after an airsoft version, presumably reusing the same model from ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered''. Like in the previous remaster, the round being ejected while reloading is a proper spent casing.
[[File:MW2R M203 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Using the M203 mounted on a SCAR-H.]]

==Knight's Armament Masterkey==
The [[Knight's Armament Masterkey]] shotgun is frequently seen mounted to rifles as an underslung shotgun like the M203. It is mostly attached to the FN FAL or SCAR-H assault rifles, but is sometimes seen on other weapons. The shotgun carries an impossible 7 shells in singleplayer, and a more-realistic-but-still-one-extra 4 shells in multiplayer. In multiplayer, it is unlocked for assault rifles after 20 grenade launcher kills.
[[File:Masterkey02.jpg|thumb|none|450px|KAC Masterkey shotgun - 12 Gauge]]
[[File:MW2 Masterkey (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Working the Masterkey's pump in the necessary action movie style whenever opting to use it. Doing so would realistically eject a perfectly good shell. Switching to the Masterkey while sprinting or from a secondary weapon does not pump the shotgun.]]

[[File:MW2 Masterkey (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good view of the device shown from the start of the FAL's reload.]]

===Remastered version===
The 7-round capacity from the original singleplayer has been decreased to the technically achievable 4 round in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. Sadly however, the Masterkey didn't receive the appropriate difference in partial/empty reload process as with other shotguns, plus it is still pumped when switching to it, and the player character still grasps the pistol grip of their main rifle rather than operating the actual trigger of the Masterkey.
[[File:MW2R Masterkey (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ramirez holds a Masterkey mounted on an AK.]]

==GP-30==
The [[GP-30]] grenade launcher, incorrectly called the GP-25, is sometimes seen mounted on the [[AK-47]]s in-game. Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', a western 40mm grenade stands in for the Russian VOG-25 40mm grenade, and the player is incorrectly shown flicking the launcher downwards to eject a spent grenade casing upon firing the weapon, even though the real VOG-25 grenades are caseless; a full western 40mm grenade stands in for said spent grenade casing.

[[File:MW2R GP-25 (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|However, still like in ''MWR'', the player character unnecessarily flicks the safety lever after loading the launcher. The lever itself does not move and remains set to the "ОГ" fire position.]]

=Grenades/Explosives=
==M83 Smoke Grenade==
The [[M83 smoke grenade]] is the standard smoke grenade that can be used in the game; like COD4, they feature incorrect [[M18 smoke grenade]] textures, and may even be the exact same model. Colored versions are used to mark killstreak drop locations for some multiplayer killstreaks.

==M67 Hand Grenade==

==M84 Stun Grenade==
[[M84 stun grenade]]s returns as the Flashbang and Stun Grenades. Flashbangs have a green stripe, while Stun Grenades have a red stripe.
[[File:M84-Flash-Bang-Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|150px|M84 stun grenade]]
[[File:MW2 M84.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Note that the character is only pulling the top pin and the lever is clipping into his hand.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
The deployable [[Claymore]] is usable by the player, again depicted with the fictional laser tripwire detonators instead of being command detonation.

[[File:M18A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine with command cable and M57 'clacker' detonator switch]]

[[File:MW2R M18A1 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Looking at the front of the mine.]]

==C4==
The C4 from ''Call of Duty 4'' returns in ''Modern Warfare 2''.

Much like in ''Call of Duty 4'', the C4's Clacker is bizarrely used to call in some of the killstreaks, as if it was a radio, though other more sensible communication devices like colored smoke and rugged laptops are now present and used for other killstreaks.

==Fictional Bounding Mine==
The bounding mines featured in the mission "Loose Ends" resemble closely the fictional bounding mines seen in the Guantanamo scene from ''[[Bad_Boys_II#Fictional_Bounding_Mine|Bad Boys II]]''.
[[File:MW2 Boundingmine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Fortunately for Roach, time slows down whenever he triggers one of these.]]

===Remastered version===
[[File:MW2R Boundingmine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The same sequence in the remaster.]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
In singleplayer, the [[General Dynamics GAU-17/A]], the first time the player gets to use the Minigun is in the level "Team Player", where it is mounted on M1026 HMMWVs; in this mission, it strangely fires in a circular spread. In the missions "Wolverines!" and "Exodus", the Minigun is used for the (fictional) M5 Sentry Gun emplacement, operated by both U.S. Army Rangers and Russian airborne infantry units, and available as a kill streak in multiplayer. In "Loose Ends", dismantled Miniguns can be found in Makarov's safehouse, and can later can be seen mounted on Shadow Company SUVs.

In a few multiplayer maps, Miniguns can be found mounted on objects, similarly to the [[M249]]s in [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|the first ''Modern Warfare]]''.

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] is mounted on AH-1W Super Cobras seen at the aircraft boneyard in "The Enemy of My Enemy" and in multiplayer. The Harrier jumpjets also inaccurately sport the very same gun pod from the Cobras in multiplayer in order to fulfill the fictional (for a Harrier) function of hovering over an area and providing fire support.

==KPV==
[[KPV]] heavy machine guns mounted in the ZPU-4 quad anti-aircraft mount are used by Russian paratroopers to engage US air support in "Exodus". They are also found on the multiplayer map "Afghan" and on the roofs of buildings on the multiplayer map "Strike." A miniature ZPU model is also present in the "Museum".

It reuses the same model from ''Call of Duty 4''.

==8 cm kurzer Granatwerfer 42==
[[Kurzer 8 cm Granatwerfer 42]] mortars are fired by OpFor troops in the "Team Player" singleplayer mission at the beginning at the other bridge shore. This is the third appearance of the model in the ''Call of Duty'' series after it first appeared in ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' and reappeared ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. The same model would later on be used in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II]]'' level "Pyrrhic Victory". The mortar also appeared in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]'', but it thankfully no longer uses the ancient COD2 model in that game.

In a nod to the previous Call Of Dutys, a WWII-era poster of a woman holding an [[M1A1 Thompson|M1928A1 Thompson]] can be seen in the multiplayer map "Derail"

==AKM==
The [[AKM]] is seen on a poster in the Multiplayer map 'Sub Base', but is not usable in the game.

==FN SCAR-L==
In the multiplayer menu background image, we see a soldier carrying a third generation [[FN SCAR|SCAR-L]] with an EOTech sight, AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, and a vertical foregrip, but it was never used in the game.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A3==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK91A3]] from ''Modern Warfare'' appears in trailers and early screenshots, but was dropped from the final game, most likely in favor of the FAL.
[[File:HK91A3.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Heckler & Koch HK91A3 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:Vlc 2009-09-03 10-20-00-79.png|thumb|none|600px|Pre-release airport security with the HK91.]]

==Enfield L85==
The kill-feed icon for the [[Enfield L85 rifle series#L86A1|L86 LSW]] in multiplayer depicts an [[L85]] with a SUSAT scope instead. Evidence suggests that the in-game L86 LSW was an L85 at one point during development: the unremoved kill-feed icon, and that the L86's texture sheet has the L85's 30-round magazine. The fact that the L86's maximum singleplayer ammo is 420 rounds, a number divisible by the 30-round L85 mags rather than the 100-round drums found on the in-game L86, also supports this idea.

Seeing as the L86A1 in-game features the L85 handguard, it is likely that an L85A1 model was modified into the L86A1 model seen in the final game.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

{{WIP}}
[[File:MW2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'' (2009)]]

{{spoiler|This page contains spoilers. Read at your own risk!}}
'''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2''''' (also known as simply ''Modern Warfare 2'', ''CoD:MW2'' or ''MW2'') is the sixth main installment of the ''[[Call of Duty|Call of Duty series]]'' and the second installment of the ''Modern Warfare'' franchise. Officially released worldwide on November 10, 2009, ''MW2'' was developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms.

The game's storyline is set in the year 2016, five years after the events of ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. Despite the efforts of the U.S. Marines, the SAS, and the Russian Loyalists, the Russian Ultranationalist party has taken power within Russia. An Ultranationalist terrorist, Vladimir Makarov, considered too radical even for the new Russian government, begins his campaign to take revenge upon the western world. In response, Task Force 141, led by LTG Shepherd, is created to hunt down Makarov. During the campaign, the player takes the roles of PFC Joseph Allen and PVT James Ramirez of Hunter Two-One, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, U.S. Army, as well as Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson and Capt. John "Soap" MacTavish of Task Force 141.

A remaster of the singleplayer campaign, titled '''''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''''', was released on March 31, 2020 for the PlayStation 4, and on April 30, 2020 for the Xbox One and PC.

'''The following weapons and equipment are used in the video game ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'':'''
__TOC__ 

=Overview=
Weapons in ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2'' are categorized into the following categories: the primary Assault Rifles, Light Machine Guns, Sniper Rifles, and Submachine Guns, and the secondary Handguns, Machine Pistols, Shotguns, and Launchers.

All handguns and submachine guns from multiplayer can be dual-wielded in ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2''. The Rangers and the Winchester Model 1887 shotguns can also be dual-wielded.

=Handguns=
All handguns in the game, except for the M1911, are available in both single and multiplayer modes. All handguns in the multiplayer can be equipped with a variety of accessories, including: FMJ rounds, suppressors, dual wield (akimbo), tactical knives, and extended magazines (unless noted otherwise).

Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', the game effectively animates all handguns as operating in DAO (Double Action Only) mode.

==Beretta 92SB==
The [[Beretta 92SB]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', once again standing in as the military issue M9. In singleplayer, it is the primary sidearm of all U.S. troops, Task Force 141, U.S. Navy SEALs, and is infrequently used by the Middle Eastern OpFor and the Brazilian Militia.

===Beretta M9 (remastered version)===
In ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'', the weapon is modeled after a proper [[Beretta M9]]. It appears to reuse the same M9 model from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]''.
[[File:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm]]

==Beretta 93R (Mockup)==
The "M93 Raffica", classified under the Machine Pistol category, is a Beretta semi-automatic pistol converted to resemble and function like a [[Beretta 93R]]. Real 93Rs have a frame-mounted safety and a more angular slide, all of which the in-game model lacks. It seems likely that the developers took the base 92SB model and added 93R parts to it and made it shoot three-round bursts. It is attached with a skeletal stock and what looks like an attachment rail for a flashlight/LAM. The in-game model has an extended magazine but still only holds 15 rounds in singleplayer, though in multiplayer it holds a more appropriate 20 rounds.

In singleplayer, it can be found in an armory in "The Gulag", in a basement armory in "Loose Ends", and in the "Museum" level. It is unlocked at level 38 in multiplayer, and benefits from low recoil, high damage, fast reload times, and instantaneous ADS.

===Remastered version===
The remastered version still depicts a mockup, this time using the base model of the Beretta M9 as opposed to the 92SB from before. The hammer is still in half-cocked position.

[[File:MW2R 93R (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Checking out the Beretta in the inspect animation.]]

==Colt Anaconda==
The [[Colt Anaconda]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer, called ".44 Magnum" in-game. It is the signature weapon of Lieutenant General Shepard (voiced by [[Lance Henriksen]]), which he uses at several key points in the campaign.

In a cutscene in "Loose Ends", General Shepard pulls out his Anaconda to shoot someone despite the holstered Anaconda on his model still visibly in the holster, as though he has another big Anaconda tucked in the back of his pants. During a cutscene in "Endgame", the cylinder rotates counterclockwise when General Shepard pulls back the hammer, and then incorrectly rotates clockwise again before the gun fires when Shepard pulls the trigger.

It is a useful weapon in multiplayer mode due to its quick draw and power, and the fact that the Anaconda will fire as fast as the player can press the fire key. As you probably suspected, the Anaconda is not available with a suppressor or extended magazines as other handguns. Instead of 75 kills, the player has to reach 100 kills with this weapon to unlock the tactical knife attachment.

Interestingly, the barrel of the Anaconda on the weapon's world model reads "BRAD ALLENCONDA", a reference to Brad Allen, the head weapon designer of Infinity Ward.

===Remastered version===
As the remaster only includes the campaign story, the ".44 Magnum" is only available in the Museum bonus level outside of its appearances with General Shepard.

[[File:MW2R Anaconda (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Inspecting the cylinder - the rounds always appear to be unfired.]]

==Desert Eagle Mark XIX==
A [[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]] with a black barrel and slide and chrome frame is a sidearm available in MW2. It is equipped with Trijicon 3-dot sights, the current production barrel with a Picatinny rail, an unusable underbarrel SureFire X400 Ultra WeaponLight laser aiming module, and (rather bizarrely) an [[M1911]]-esque linearly-sliding trigger with 3 holes in it.

It is the sidearm of arms dealer Alejandro Rojas' assistant and the Brazilian Militia. Surprisingly, quite a few Americans, most notably Corporal Dunn (voiced by [[Barry Pepper]]), use this gun as their preferred sidearm, despite real Rangers never having the Desert Eagle issued to them; in fact, the Desert Eagle has never been issued as a standard sidearm by any military whatsoever, having only ever been used by Poland's JW GROM premier special forces unit and Portugal's elite Special Operations Group police unit, in very limited service.

In some cases, the old model from COD4 will be used in place of the new model.

Similarly to the Anaconda, 100 kills are required to unlock the tactical knife, and no suppressor or extended magazines are available.

In the remastered version after dispatching the first two gunmen, the assistant will pick up and use an AK dropped by one of them. This is much more logical than in the original where he continues to fire double(!!) the amount of bullets the mag itself can hold.]]

===Remastered version===
The Desert Eagle returns in the Remaster in the same configuration from the original only differing in that the SureFire X400 Ultra WeaponLight is being replaced with what appears to be a Sun Optics flashlight and laser/Streamlight TLR 2 HL G hybrid. A gold Desert Eagle reusing the ''Modern Warfare Remastered'' model is present as an easter egg in the level "Of Their Own Accord". This time the pistol's hammer is correctly cocked.
[[File:MW2R DEagle (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the other remastered handguns, the Desert Eagle is chambered when initially equipped.

[[File:MW2R DEagle (8).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the Gold DEagle reveals the original style iron sights.]]

==Glock 17==
The [[Glock 17]] appears in the game in a [[Glock pistol series#Glock 17 (Converted to Full Auto)|full auto configuration]], with a 33-round magazine (50 if equipped with Extended Magazine), placed in the Machine Pistol category. Although it is called "G18", referring to the select fire [[Glock 18]] manufactured by the same company, it has no selector switch, and the frame is olive-drab, which was only featured on their semi-automatic designs. It is a 3rd generation Glock, but modeled without any finger grooves; the magazine release is also missing. The rear sight is a fictional hybrid; it features both the factory-standard Glock white square U-notch, as well as two white dots like on a 3-dot aftermarket Glock sight.

In singleplayer, the converted Glock 17 is used by the Brazilian Militia, Task Force 141, wounded Shadow Company soldiers if they are in "Last Stand" (a state in which a character is downed and can only use their sidearms, which sporadically happens to AI enemies in singleplayer and is a perk in multiplayer), and on occasion, Middle Eastern OpFor. The weapons is also available in several Spec-Ops missions.

The weapon's extended magazine is present most of the time in first and third person, but disappears the weapon is shown in TF 141 characters' holsters, replaced by a flush-fit non-extended magazine. This is most evident on Soap: in "Takedown", Soap holds his G18 on Rojas with the extended magazine easily visible, but his G18 has a regular magazine in his holster in other levels.

While the weapon is held one-handed in first person, it is held with a two-handed grip in third person. When equipped with Extended Magazines, the starting ammo without Scavenger is 49 bullets plus the 50 in the gun itself. This means that if the weapon is emptied and reloaded, it will not have a full magazine.

It is unlocked at level 22 (Master Sergeant) in multiplayer. The weapon has a high rate of fire, moderate recoil, but it is possible to utilize the recoil to get headshots. When paired with akimbo and extended magazine attachments, it is especially accurate and deadly, and is an effective sidearm.

The remastered version correctly depicts a [[Glock 18]], specifically the Glock 18C with compensator cuts. It is also held with two hands rather than one. It still incorrectly holds 32 rounds in the 33-round magazine and features the same fictional Glock u-notch and 3-dot hybrid rear sight as the original. The model appears to be an updated version from ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare]]''.

====LA-10u/PEQ Handheld Laser Designator====
In the remastered version of the level "Exodus", the laser designator function used to guide supporting fire from "Badger 2-1" is now done by its own unique gadget rather than a visible red beam originating from barrel of whatever weapon Ramirez wields. It comprises of a tan Glock frame with something resembling a laser-based trainer system that replaces the pistol's slide; it seems to be an imitation of the LA-10u/PEQ Handheld Laser Designator.

==Heckler & Koch USP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch USP#Heckler & Koch USP|Heckler & Koch USP45]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', appearing in singleplayer and multiplayer. It still features the incorrect extended barrel, and has an unremovable, unusable Viridian X5L Gen 1 combo module. It is one of the main sidearms of the Russian forces, including Ultranationalists and Internal Troops, as well as Task Force 141.

In single player, the USP is always equipped with the tactical knife attachment. In multiplayer, the USP is unlocked at level 4 (Private First Class) and is an effective sidearm overall. It has a magazine capacity of 12 rounds, and 18 rounds with the extended magazines attachment. It can be equipped with a suppressor.

The usage of the USP by the Russians is highly inaccurate, given Russian doctrine that focuses on using domestic weapons, guns like the [[Makarov PM]] and the [[MP-443 Grach]] would be more accurate.

===Remastered version===
Due to the remaster only covering the campaign and not the multiplayer nor spec ops, the USP is only seen paired with a knife.

==M1911 variant==
The same [[M1911]] variant (closest to a [[Springfield Armory 1911 Series|Springfield Armory Loaded 1911]]) given to Soap by Captain Price in the first game during the final level "Game Over" reappears in the second game. It is carried by Soap, visible on his holster in "Cliffhanger" level. Its appearance is more story than gameplay-important. Some Ghillie snipers and FSB troops are also seen with it holstered, though they never use them and tend to switch to a Heckler & Koch USP45 that magically appears. One militia member also carries one during a cutscene.

It is only usable in the museum bonus level, where it possesses a bug in its reloading animation; when emptied, there is a noticeable pause of a few seconds before the reload animation plays out. In multiplayer, when the player is using a sniper rifle as their primary weapon, on an arctic or desert type map, the M1911 will appear in either the player's holster or on their belt.

===Remastered version===
When Soap meets Price in the remastered version of "The Gulag", he is seen holding the M1911 with a teacup grip. This is strange, considering that he used a more appropriate stance in the original game.

=Submachine Guns=
==Brügger & Thomet MP9==
The [[Brügger & Thomet MP9]] is found in-game, categorized as a Machine Pistol, and known as the TMP, the original version manufactured by Steyr. The weapon features a scope rail, an olive lower receiver, ghost ring sights, and unused side rails. It is often seen in singleplayer, where it is used by Middle Eastern OpFor, Russian Airport Security Police, Makarov's Ultranationalists, and Shadow Company, and is often dual-wielded (with an expected drop in accuracy); a few unique cases allow the player to acquire akimbo MP9s with red dot sights attached, a combination that is impossible in multiplayer given the sights on dual-wielded weapons cannot be used.

In singleplayer, the MP9 has an incorrect 32-round magazine, while in multiplayer it has a correct but small 15 round magazine (which can be emptied in about 1 second, and only increased to 25 with Extended Mags). It has low recoil and great accuracy when aiming down its sights. It is unlocked at level 58, making it the final machine pistol unlocked, but it is hugely unpopular on account of its absurdly small magazine size, high unlock rank, poor hip-fire accuracy and low damage. This results in it being overlooked in favor of other, better-performing and easier to acquire machine pistols.

Although of Swiss origin, the use of the Brügger & Thomet MP9 by the Russian Airport Security during the "No Russian" level is correct, as it is in use by the FSB Alpha counterterrorist unit and by Russian law enforcement in real life.

==FN P90 TR==
The [[FN P90 TR]] appears simply as "P90" in MW2. It is used by Russians and US Shadow Company members in single player. Unlocked at level 24 in multiplayer, the P90 is a popular choice for the same reason as in real life: it is compact, has a large capacity and low recoil, does good damage and has a high rate of fire.

It's another questionable weapon choice for the Russian Army, a more accurate choice would be the PP-2000 already in the game or the [[AS_Val#SR-2_Veresk|SR-2 Veresk]].

==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
The [[MP5K]], equipped with a custom Rail Interface System and a threaded barrel, appears in ''Modern Warfare 2''. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian Militia, Middle Eastern OpFor, Rangers, Task Force 141, Russian Internal Troops / FSB, and some Russian soldiers / Ultranationalists. It comes with a foregrip in multiplayer, but in singleplayer this is absent, which presumably makes sense to somebody. It is often seen with a Red Dot Sight. The world model depicts it with a 15-round magazine, though the first person and Create A Class images both show the correct 30-round magazine.

A suppressed version, the "MP5KSD", is available in the campaign mission "Loose Ends" and in the Spec Ops missions "Hidden" and "Estate Takedown". The real 'SD' suffix is used by H&K for their integrally suppressed MP5 variants, which the in-game weapon is not. In cases where the suppressed MP5K is paired with a red dot sight (as seen in the campaign levels "The Enemy of My Enemy" and "Just Like Old Times" and in several of the Spec Ops missions), the weapon is more appropriately labeled "MP5K Silenced Red Dot".

[[File:MW2MP.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Russian Internal Troops' supply units (notable by their white griffin patches) firing MP5K submachine guns behind riot shields. Note the shorter magazines.]]

===Remastered version===
The remaster uses an HK slap-style empty reload for the MP5K, contrarily to the original game which involved pulling the charging handle after swapping magazines.
[[File:MW2R MP5K (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the original game, the equip animation shows the MP5K getting chambered, although the bolt never moves and seems to be a flat texture here.]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is a submachine gun appearing in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Like the MP5K, Picatinny rails were added to the weapon. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian police, Russian military, Shadow Company, and Task Force 141. In multiplayer, it can be equipped with extended magazines like all the other SMGs. It incorrectly holds 32 rounds in multiplayer by default, but correctly holds 25 rounds in singleplayer. It is insanely popular online due to suffering a negligible damage decrease when suppressed. Interestingly, the front sight is removed when optics are attached, which is only possible by way of completely chopping it off.

A more appropriate alternative Russian-made firearm in this category would be the PP-19 Bizon, the PP-90M1 or the PP-19-01 Vityaz submachine guns, which are used by military and police forces in the Russian Federation, including various Spetsnaz units and counter-terrorist and law enforcement units.

Nevertheless, the third-person model is textured correctly.]]

===Remastered version===
The UMP in the remaster has different markings on the receiver, and for some reason the reloading animations have been completely redone, without an HK slap-style reload like the MP5K.
[[File:MW2R UMP45 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Initially-equipping the UMP results in a rather awkward palming of the charging handle.]]

==IMI Mini Uzi==
The [[Mini Uzi]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian militiamen, Middle Eastern OpFor, and rarely by Makarov's Ultranationalists in the mission "Enemy of My Enemy". Near the end of the game, the player gets to fire an Uzi during a boat chase. Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', it is incorrectly shown with a reciprocating charging handle.

==PP-2000==
The [[PP-2000]] appears in the game and is categorized as a Machine Pistol. Despite being a rare example of a modern Russian firearm in the original ''Modern Warfare'' trilogy, it is only ever used by Russian Paratroopers and Makarov's Ultranationalists as a backup sidearm, most notably in the injured "last stand" state. Interestingly, like the Glock 17, the enemies fire the weapon in semi-auto in last stand, and the enemies will usually discharge a few rounds when they are shot in last stand. The PP-2000 can be equipped with assorted sights, scopes and accessories, including a thermal sight exclusive to the level "The Only Easy Day ... Was Yesterday". It is an all around effective weapon in multiplayer due to its high rate of fire and low recoil, the weapon's only drawback is its 20 round magazine.

==TDI Vector==
The [[TDI Vector|Prototype TDI Vector]], fitted with a Gen 1 stock and using KRISS 25+ round extended Glock magazines that hold 30 rounds in gameplay, appears as an SMG in MW2. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian Troops, Shadow Company, and occasionally by Task Force 141 and Brazilian Militiamen. It is highly incorrect for the Russian Ultranationalists (except Makarov's gun-smuggling terrorists) to use the TDI Vector as a Personal Defense Weapon, as it is a weapon of US origin. A more likely alternative would be the PP-2000 featured in the game or the [[SR-2#SR-2_Veresk|SR2-Veresk]].

It is generally fitted with a reflex sight, and it uses a suppressor in some levels. Its default finish is the two-tone black and tan finish like the real-life prototype; in "Just Like Old Times", Soap's Vector has a unique black finish.

As with some of the other in-game weapons, the iron sights have Infinity Ward trademarks on them.

===Remastered version===
The Vector returns in much a largely unchanged appearance in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. The trigger group and pistol grip now have the same finish as the rest of the upper receiver though. In some missions, the Vector's lower has a desert camo finish, which was not seen in the original campaign story.

==AK Hybrid==
A heavily customized AK hybrid appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as the "AK-47". It has the milled receiver of an [[AK-47]], but with the ribbed top cover, 90 degree gas block, and front sight block of an [[AK-74]]. Additionally, it weirdly has one single rivet at the bottom rear of the receiver; its position is somewhat similar to the bottom rivet of a [[Draco Pistol]]. It is fitted with an LHV47 (or its airsoft clone from King Arms) railed handguard, IO Inc SCOP0040 scope mount, T6 stock adapter, Vltor IMod Stock, and a [[Saiga 12]] breaching muzzle brake. It feeds from Finnish AK polymer magazines. Overall, it appears the whole build has been based on some airsoft set like the G&P AK Tactical Conversion Kit which contains replicas of the listed above items.

In singleplayer, it is used by almost all enemy factions, including the Russian Military, Ultranationalists, and the Brazilian Militia. Most AK-47s are seen with arctic or desert camouflage, although some in the level "Loose Ends" have digital and woodland camouflage. It is the last weapon unlocked in multiplayer at level 70, and as such does not see much use as most players prefer to Prestige instead.

Its depiction is wildly inaccurate for the Russian Army and even Makarov's Ultranationalists; these groups would be more likely use the [[AK-74M]] or possibly some rifles of the [[AK-100 series]]. At the time of the game's making, the Russians weren't considering modernizing the old AKs let alone use aftermarket US made accessories, however, Kalashnikov Concern introduced the universal upgrade package for AKs in 2015 which interestingly almost coincides with the game's 2016 setting.

While this kind of letter markings was used, though on the fire selector, the denomination of EP is fictional as E was used to denote East German AKs and P for Polish ones.]]

===Remastered version===
The remastered model resembles the previous one, but the AK-74 style gas block and front sight block have been replaced by those of an [[AKM]]. Additionally, the weapon now has Yugoslavian "U-R-J" selector markings on the right side and the original IO Inc SCOP0040 mount has been replaced with a BP-02 mount.

==Colt M4A1 Carbine==
The [[M4A1]] is one of the most common weapons in the game. The in-game model features an A.R.M.S. #50C-TR S.I.R. system, flip-up PRI front sight gas block, A.R.M.S. #40L rear back up iron sights and a triple loop ambi sling adapter receiver end plate. The rail covers, lower receiver, stock, and pistol grip are all in tan. A KAC foregrip is fitted in first-person only, for some reason. The serrations on the back of the pistol grip confirms it to be an A2 but it is depicted without a finger groove and bottom toe.

In singleplayer, it is the first weapon provided to the player. It is primarily used by the U.S. Army Rangers and Task Force 141, including Soap. During "No Russian", Vladimir Makarov and his terrorist group are also armed with the M4A1. The M4A1 is commonly equipped with the [[M203 grenade launcher]], often alongside other attachments. A suppressed M4A1 is available in the level "Museum".

The rifles in-game are apparently Colt-manufactured, with Colt's "prancing pony" logo stamped on the left side of the lower receiver on the in-game model. Curiously, the M4A1 held by Soap in one of the promotional images has a Bushmaster stamp on it.

The rifle is modeled after the Tokyo Marui M4 S-System airsoft rifle and the STANAG magazines found in the webbing of some characters are actually modeled after airsoft magazines as evidenced by the circular opening at the top of the magazine.

The same goes for the [[M16A4]].]]
[[File:MW2 M4render.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A wireframe-eque rendering of the M4/M203 combo in the intro cutscene of "Team Player".]]

===Remastered version===
The remastered M4A1 has the fire select actually on full-auto, the pistol grip is now a properly modelled A2, the castle nut is now tan and the receiver end plate is now standard and the right side of the rifle is no longer a low resolution mirror of the left, but is properly textured. Some M4A1s issued and used in levels feature the laser-designating function sport AN/PEQ-2 IR designators from ''Modern Warfare Remastered.'' The empty reload also shows the operator smacking the bolt release tab rather than thumbing it as with the original game.

The STANAG magazines found in the webbing of some characters are once again modeled after airsoft magazines.

==Colt M16A4==
The [[M16A4]] appears in the game as a burst-firing assault rifle. In singleplayer, it is seen in the hands of the U.S. Army Rangers and Task Force 141. Like the M4A1, many of these have M203 grenade launchers. It is equipped with the IMI Defense MRS-M handguard which is depicted with slightly misplaced and fewer vent holes.

Just like in ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'', when the M16 is mounted with optics, the front sight and the gas block are removed. This would render the gun unable to fire automatically after the first shot. The shooter would have to manually load a round into the chamber by racking the bolt, effectively making the gun a bolt action.

[[File:382.png|thumb|none|600px|A US Army Ranger fires his M16A4 fitted with ACOG. Note that the front sight is removed, and that the right side is just a mirror of the left.]]

===Remastered version===
The remastered M16A4 reuses the same reload animations from the ''Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare'' version instead of sharing animations with the M4A1, as is the case in the original ''MW2''. It has proper Safe/Semi/Burst selector markings, but the barrel incorrectly has an M203 groove, like in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]''. Like the M4A1 in the remaster, the right side of the rifle is no longer a low resolution mirror of the left but properly modeled. The front sight also disappears completely when optics are attached, as in the original game.

==FAMAS F1==
The [[FAMAS F1]] fitted with top rail is seen in the game. It only fires in 3-round bursts, and incorrectly holds 30 rounds in a 25-round FAMAS magazine. In singleplayer, it is mostly used by the Russian military and Russian Ultranationalists. Some FAMASes with a unique "White Tape Camo" can occasionally be found in singleplayer.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000 Tactical]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, the F2000 is used by the Ultranationalists (another questionable choice, being Belgian in origin), commonly with thermal sights. The F2000 can incorrectly mount the [[M203]] grenade launcher instead of the [[FN GL-1]].

Despite being an assault rifle, it behaves more like an SMG: it has a very high rate of fire (chewing through its 30 round magazine in less than three seconds), substantial recoil, and very low damage without Stopping Power. Its unpredictable recoil and low damage makes it weak at medium to long ranges, but its rate of fire allows it to excel in close quarters.

Its Create-A Class image shows the removable forearm pushed back where the trigger guard would be.

The charging handle is correctly used during empty reloads in the remastered version.

[[File:MW2R F2000 (9).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The F2000's right side.]]

==FN F2000==
The F2000 Tactical has a unique Red Dot Sight attachment model based on the 1.6x scope of the original [[FN F2000]], but it differs from the real F2000 scope in that it is mounted on top of the F2000 Tactical's raised Picatinny rails, and leaves the rails exposed on the sides; the original F2000 had a lower, shorter rail for mounting the scope that is completely hidden by the scope shroud. As such, the resultant in-game model of the F2000 Tactical with the pseudo-F2000-scope is a shoddy approximation of the original scoped F2000, and has many differences in detail.

As mentioned, the pseudo-F2000-scope is also incorrectly portrayed as a red dot sight rather than a conventional scope. Strangely, the EMP has no effect on the sight. (For extra trivia, the EMP does disable ACOGs, but this is incorrect because the ACOG scope doesn't uses any batteries and should still function despite an EMP)

The original F2000 is also the weapon shown on the F2000's kill icon.

==FN FAL==
The [[FN FAL]] appears in the game, equipped with a receiver mounted A.R.M.S #18 M21/14. It has the ribbed metal handguard from StG 58, a ramp rear sight from FAL, and the charging handle and 30-round magazines from [[DSA SA58 OSW|DSArms SA58 FAL rifles]]. The stock is a hybrid between the standard stock and the humped stock. The weapon is locked to semi-auto. Its charging handle is incorrectly animated to reciprocate when firing.

In singleplayer, it is commonly used by the Brazilian Militia, and sometimes by the Middle Eastern OpFor and the Russian military. It is usually equipped with either a KAC Masterkey or an ACOG scope in singleplayer. In Multiplayer, the 30-round magazines hold only 20 rounds by default, and only go up to 30 with the Extended Mags attachment.

The FAL returns largely unchanged in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'' although it only holds 20 shots in the 30-round magazines, as in the original game's multiplayer. The charging handle also no longer reciprocates when firing.

==FN SCAR-H CQC==
The [[SCAR-H]] appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as a high-damage, low rate of fire assault rifle. The in-game model is an older 2nd generation model, with the straight cheek rest on the stock. Its rear sights is chopped down, and the iron sights have Infinity Ward trademarks (like the Vector and some other weapons). It is also mounted backwards. In multiplayer, it correctly holds 20 rounds per magazine, while in singleplayer it holds 30; it can be assumed that, similar to the FN FAL, all SCAR-H's in singleplayer are equipped with the "Extended Magazines" attachment.

In singleplayer, it is one of the primary rifles of Task Force 141, U.S. Army Rangers, and Shadow Company soldiers. A unique variant with a vertical foregrip can be found in the singleplayer level "S.S.D.D." and the Spec Ops mission "The Pit". In multiplayer, its kill icon in the killfeed is also shown with a vertical foregrip, despite said attachment being unavailable for the SCAR in multiplayer.

The SCAR-H is now modeled after the third generation production model. The 30-round capacity from the original singleplayer has been decreased to the more common 20-rounder in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. Additionally, the bolt correctly locks to the rear when a magazine is emptied, and the fire selector is correctly set to full-auto. The rear sight is no longer backwards, but it is mounted much further forwards in order to retain the same placement for the rear post.

There is a small bug with the SCAR-H fitted with the KAC Masterkey attachment: when the shotgun is emptied and is about to be reloaded, the SCAR-H's bolt briefly locks back then instantly returns forward.

==IMI Tavor TAR-21==
The [[IMI Tavor TAR-21]] appears in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, the TAR-21 is used by Russian soldiers and Task Force 141, almost always used with kind of optical sight or scope. Its kill icon always shows it with a Holographic Sight (an EOTech holographic sight).

==Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR==
The [[M14 Rifle#Mk 14 Mod 0/1 Enhanced Battle Rifle|Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR]] appears in the game, almost always with a scope attached. In singleplayer, it appears as the standard weapon for Task Force 141 snipers, and is referred to as the "M14 EBR", the US Army designation. This seems to be the weapon of choice for Captain MacTavish.

It is the last sniper rifle to be unlocked in multiplayer, where it is listed incorrectly as an "M21 EBR", likely to remind players of the actual [[M21]] in ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]''.

An unscoped Mk 14 Mod 1 EBR can be found in the Spec-Ops mission "Breach & Clear", though it still has the exact same zoom level as when equipped with an ACOG. It is the only time the player gets to use it with iron sights.

In the remastered version, the bolt now locks back at the start of an empty reload.

==Magpul Masada==
The [[Magpul Masada]] appears in the game under the name "ACR", actually the name of its successors manufactured by Bushmaster and Remington. It is a Gen 2 Masada, characterized by its forward-mounted and ambidextrous charging handle. The handle itself is the early version which was seen at the 2007 SHOT Show and can be found on A&K airsoft versions. The front sight is loosely based on the Masada's front sight, while the rear sight appears to be loosely based on the Magpul MBUS. The rifle also has a Masada handguard with rails attached on the sides and a 10.5" barrel, and uses 30-round Magpul PMags.

In singleplayer, the Masada is commonly used by Task Force 141 and Shadow Company. It first appears in "Cliffhanger", where it is equipped with a suppressor, reflex sight (with more zoom than a normal reflex sight), heartbeat monitor, and a unique arctic camouflage not found on any other weapon and not available in multiplayer. Masadas with [[M203]] grenade launchers can be found in "Takedown" and "Loose Ends", the former having an ACOG scope, and the latter having a holographic sight (which has the zoom level of an ACOG, for some reason). A Masada with the same attachments as the one in "Cliffhanger" but with a unique matte black finish is found in "Just Like Old Times". It has very low recoil even in full automatic, making it a versatile all-range weapon.

[[File:MW2AR2.png|thumb|none|600px|The unique snow camo Masada used by Roach in the mission "Cliffhanger". For some reason it also gets a unique ammo pool which maxes out at 840 instead of 630, despite it being impossible to get more ammo for it in this mission.]]
[[File:MW2-ACR Unique.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The unique matte black Masada. Prior to the "primary gunfighter" perk of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops 2|Black Ops 2]]'', it was impossible to create such a weapon in any of the games' multiplayer, and weapons with three attachments were almost always restricted to being starting weapons in the campaign. Some of these campaign-only weapon configurations also have special boosts: these black Masadas in "Just Like Old Times", for example, have a maximum ammo count of 1,260 instead of 630.]]
[[File:MW2-ACR Ghost.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ghost threatens to kill a shed with his Masada unless the Russians allow Price to cause an absolutely baffling plot twist.]]

===Remington ACR (remastered version)===
The prototype Masada from the original has been replaced with a proper [[Remington ACR]] in the remaster. It retains the same pseudo-Masada front sight and pseudo-Magpul rear MBUS complete with the inappropriately sticking out handguard pin, though this time around it has a right side mounted non-ambidextrous charging handle which is modeled after the production version of the ACR handle. A modelling goof leaves the magazines sticking much further out of the magwell than they should.

This is something which had existed in the original but was not this detailed. Also note the wide field of view distorting the image and elongating the front of the rifle to look almost 20 inches.]]

==Steyr AUG A2==
In the single-player campaign, the "AUG HBAR" takes the appearance of a [[Steyr AUG A2]], mostly evidenced by the 20" barrel, whereas in multiplayer it is actually modeled after an AUG HBAR-T. It has a 30-round magazine and is equipped with either a rail-mounted version of the Swarovski AUG A1 scope or a Red Dot Sight. It is used mainly by Russian Ultranationalists. In real life, the Steyr AUG (A1) was used by VDV and by FSB Spetsnaz units (now out of service).

In multiplayer, the AUG A2 appears as the kill icon for the AUG HBAR, implying that like the L85, it was supposed to appear in multiplayer as an assault rifle before being reworked into the AUG HBAR as an LMG in multiplayer.

[[File:MW2-AUG Cpt Price.jpg|thumb|none|600px|On the plus side, he does understand how to use the foregrip; Captain Price, on the other hand, is still figuring things out.]]

===Remastered version===
The AUG A2 still appears under the "AUG HBAR" moniker in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered.'' The remastered AUG is a hybrid, with most of the features of an A2, but the bolt release of an A3; this hybridization can be increased further with the addition of the A1's Swarovski scope, which is now correctly depicted as an integral part of the receiver instead of a rail-mounted attachment. It also has a winter camo finish in the snow missions, unlike the original game.

As there is no multiplayer for the remaster, the actual LMG variant cannot be found.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention==
In what might be the most infamous depiction of a somewhat obscure sniper rifle in any media ever, the [[Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention|Cheyenne Tactical M200 Intervention]] appears in ''Modern Warfare 2'' as a usable sniper rifle. The rifle, known as simply "Intervention" in-game, is the only usable bolt-action sniper rifle in the game. It has an unusable AN/PEQ-2 laser unit mounted on the Picatinny rail just forward of the scope, which disappears when an ACOG Scope is used.

In singleplayer, it is used by US Army Rangers on several occasions, and is Soap and Captain Price's primary weapon in "Just Like Old Times", the second to final mission. The intro of that mission describes the CheyTac as an anti-materiel rifle; while the real weapon is effective in that role against some types of armor, it is mainly used as an anti-personnel system. In multiplayer, while its magazine size is a mere 5 rounds, the Intervention deals incredibly high damage, making it a deadly sight in multiplayer.

The depiction of the Intervention within ''Modern Warfare 2'' propelled the weapon into relative infamy; while the weapon itself was never deemed as "overpowered", a number of factors displayed in this game specifically (the overuse of the weapon in multiplayer, its distinctive sounds and animations, the use of hitmarkers and the general stereotype of ''Call of Duty'' generally being enjoyed by loud, skill-lacking, faux-MLG "tryhards") has made the Intervention a staple of "montage parodies", along with the infamous acts of "no-scoping" and "quick-scoping". The popularity of the weapon has allowed the Intervention to return in three other games in the franchise: ''[[Call of Duty Online]]'' (as the "CheyTacM200"), ''[[Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare]]'' (as the "TF-141"), and ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered]]'' (as the "S-Tac Aggressor").

[[File:MW2R M200 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ramirez holds the Intervention. Note how it is held in a far more conventional manner now, with the left hand on the handguard, like MWR's "S-Tac Aggressor".]]

==Barrett M82A1==
The [[Barrett M82A1]] appears as "Barrett .50cal" in the game. It has a shortened barrel, though it is not as short as the M82CQ. It has a Mr. Yuk sticker on the scope cover. The weapon is incorrectly depicted with ejection port openings on both sides of the receiver.

In singleplayer, during the level "Of Their Own Accord", an emplaced M82A1 with variable-zoom thermal sight is used by Russian snipers covering the Mall (the stretch from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument to the Capital) and is temporarily commandeered by Ramirez and his squad to take out enemy soldiers firing on evac helicopters with Javelins.

In multiplayer, it is the default sniper rifle. Oddly, it has worse overall stats than the "M21 EBR" or the WA2000. Amusingly, the weapon can be fired nearly as quickly as the trigger can be tapped, with surprisingly little recoil for dumping 10 .50 BMG rounds in ''under a second''.

==Walther WA 2000==
The rare [[Walther WA 2000]] is found in the game. In singleplayer, it is used by Russian snipers in "Loose Ends" and by Shadow Company troops in the level "Enemy of My Enemy", highly inaccurate for both given the WA2000's limited production run. While it holds only 6 rounds, it is very accurate and has low recoil.

==SVD Dragunov==
The [[SVD Dragunov]] is only featured in the singleplayer campaign, used by Russian Ultranationalists and Brazilian Militiamen. It can be found with winter camouflages in the snow levels and woodland camo in "Loose Ends" and "The Enemy of My Enemy".

A poster of a SVD Dragunov is seen in the Multiplayer map "Salvage" in a small house, along with posters of Makarov PM and AKM.

=Machine Guns=
==FN M240B==
The [[M240B]] machine gun is found in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by the US Army Rangers, Task Force 141, Shadow Company, and Makarov's terrorists. It is often seen equipped with a heartbeat sensor. In Special Ops, the enemy Juggernauts wield the M240 machine gun. The M240 also can be seen (unusable) mounted on the M1 Abrams tank.

The M240 is depicted with a bottom-mounted 100-round belt box; this is impossible in reality, for several reasons. For one, the M240 does not have an attachment point for an ammo box to attach to on its underside; the M240 is typically issued with belt boxes that are fully separate from the gun, while the US Army issues a soft M240 belt bag that is attached to the side of M240. Secondly, such an attachment point would block the M240's casing ejection port, located on the bottom where the in-game belt box is attached. The in-game belt box itself is an [[M249]] belt box with grooves resembling a [[PKM]] belt box.

The M240 deals the lowest damage out of all the machine guns (despite being chambered for the largest round), but compensates it for having the highest rate of fire in its class. It suffers from substantial recoil, restricting it to short and medium range.

===Remastered version===
The reload animation has been changed to show the charging handle being worked at both the start and end of reloads, and it still uses an incorrect M249-like belt box.

==Heckler & Koch MG4==
The [[Heckler & Koch MG4]] is used by the Russian Military and the Shadow Company in singleplayer. In multiplayer, the MG4 is unlocked at level 16. It possesses a moderately high rate of fire and sub-par damage (which can be buffed with Stopping Power), but is accurate and has low recoil.

===Remastered version===
In the remaster, the charging handle is unfolded the whole time, and is properly animated when reloading.

==L86A1 LSW==
The [[L86A1|L86A1 Light Support Weapon]] appears as the "L86 LSW", identified as the A1 by its round charging handle. The weapon is modified with a long L85 handguard, a barrel mounted carrying handle from the M240, and small Picatinny rails on each side of the receiver. The dovetail mount at the top of the receiver is replaced with a strip of Picatinny rails. The weapon uses a Chinese MDG3 120 round drum mag that holds only 100 rounds in gameplay.

It appears only once throughout the single-player campaign, during the defense of the safehouse in the level "Loose Ends". It also appears in the Special Ops mission "Estate Takedown". In multiplayer, it holds the distinction of being the weapon with the highest DPS (damage per second) with Stopping Power in the game. This is offset by obstructive iron sights and high recoil unless a grip is attached.

The killfeed icon of the weapon shows an [[#Enfield L85|L85 with a SUSAT]], likely indicating that the L86 LSW was supposed to be a L85 at one point in development.

==RPD==
The [[RPD]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by Brazilian Militia, Middle Eastern OpFor, and some Russian troops; the latter is incorrect, as while the RPD is Russian in origin, it was phased out during the 1960s in favor of the [[PKM]].

===Remastered version===
The RPD now features a side-swinging scope mount (based on airsoft versions of KV-04S combined with Zenit mounts used for the [[PKP Pecheneg]]) that is moved out of the way when reloading. Like in ''Modern Warfare Remastered'', the charging handle is correctly pulled after replacing the belt.

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
In multiplayer, the "AUG HBAR" LMG takes the form of a correct [[Steyr AUG HBAR]] (Heavy Barrel), in contrast to the singleplayer, where it appears as an AUG A2. It is specifically modeled after the HBAR-T variant used in the designated marksman rifle role, as it has a RIS rail. It is equipped with an unusable bipod, a barrel mounted carrying handle from the M240, a 42-round magazine, and a 24.4" barrel. The weapon strangely lacks the standard AUG foregrip by default, though equipping the Foregrip attachment reattaches it.

The weapon is unlocked at level 32. True to its nature, the AUG HBAR functions more like an assault rifle than an LMG: it has the fastest reload, has good accuracy and high damage, but suffers from recoil at long distances unless a Grip is used and the weapon is burst fired.

==AA-12 CQB==
The [[AA-12]] is available in the game. It is shown with a custom folding charging handle and custom sights, consisting of a rail mounted rear sight and a flip up front sight. It uses an 8-round box magazine. Using the Extended Magazines attachment in multiplayer beefs up the capacity to 16, though the magazine model remains unchanged; real AA-12 magazine options include 8 round box magazines, or 20 and 32 round drum magazines.

In singleplayer, it is used by the Russian Military (despite being American in origin) and the Shadow Company. It also appears outside the obstacle course in the first level once the player has run through it once, and a suppressed version with a heartbeat sensor appears in the Spec-Ops mission "Acceptable Losses". The AA-12 has an absurdly high rate of fire in singleplayer and Spec Ops, at around 650-700 RPM, but fires at a more convincing (but still slightly excessive) 400 RPM in multiplayer.

===Remastered version===
The AA-12 in ''Campaign Remastered'' retains the same configuration from the original complete with the same rail mounted sights. It is also shown operating with a closed bolt, which is only the case for a production run of semi-automatic civilian models in 2018-2019. However, it is depicted with the proper AA-12 charging handle instead of the custom folding one shown in the original. It also has the restricted rate of fire of the multiplayer version from MW2.

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer, referred under its US Military designation M1014. It has a olive-green finished barrel and receiver, and a Surefire triple-rail foregrip (like the one installed on the British L128A1) with an unusable under-barrel flashlight. The barrel also appears with a flat sight plane in first person, which is unusual for the M4. The weapon is modeled with a civilian 4-shot magazine tube; like MW1, the M1014 has a 7-round capacity in singleplayer (the capacity of the military version), and has the correct modeled capacity in multiplayer (extended to 6 rounds with Extended Mags).

It is used by the US Military and several Brazilian Militiamen in singleplayer; the player character Roach also starts with one in "Takedown".

===Remastered version===
In the remastered version, the player character correctly inserts a round in the chamber during empty reloads, and releases the bolt before loading successive shells into the tube.

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[Franchi SPAS-12]] is found in singleplayer and multiplayer. It is shown with the stock unfolded, and is used in pump-action mode only. In singleplayer, it is used by the Russian Military, Shadow Company, and Task Force 141, usually with no attachments; it's a bit of an odd choice to say the least, as it was never issued by any military force (most of its sales being to police departments, its intended market), and went out of production in the year 2000.

Weirdly, the bolt is animated to cycle as the shotgun is fired (visible when aiming down sights), rather than when the player character works the pump after the shot. In singleplayer, fired shells can be seen ejecting when the gun cycles, but no shells are seen ejected in multiplayer.

[[File:MW2 SPAS (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pumping the shotgun after firing. Note the shut bolt; despite cycling when the weapon is fired, this doesn't move when the pump is worked.

[[File:MW2 SPAS (5).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the SPAS-12, round by round. As in most games, this is done incorrectly; since the SPAS's bolt release (which is on the left side of the receiver) is also its carrier latch, it has to be held down in order to load in shells. The bolt release is also textured on the right side of the receiver due to the model being mirrored; the magazine catch, which is a differently shaped button that ''should'' be present on the right side of the receiver, is not modeled.]]
[[File:MW2 SPAS (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As is COD tradition, a pump is always required after the reload finishes, regardless if it is necessary, logical, or even if it actually does anything to the bolt. The flat object sticking out of the bottom of the receiver is the safety lever; the in-game SPAS is based off of the earlier FIE-imported models, with an 8-round magazine and a lever-type safety that had a tendency to be anything but (often failing to engage, and sometimes firing the shotgun when disengaged).]]
[[File:MW2-SPAS 3rd.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier with a SPAS-12 shotgun in the Museum level. His trigger discipline is admirable, though one has to wonder why he's giving the rear sight such a wide berth.]]

===Remastered version===
In ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered'', the reloading process is done correctly. The SPAS-12 is upended with the off-hand holding down the bolt release button to allow the shells to be loaded into the tube (an extremely rare sight in video games featuring this weapon). The pumping handle is not racked during partial reloads, and on empty reloads the character inserts the first shell in the chamber before loading the remaining ones in the tube. The bolt's movement and shell ejection are also now properly linked to the pump's animation rather than triggering immediately on firing.

==Sears Ranger==
A sawed-off Sears Ranger is featured in the game. The weapon cannot aim down sights. It can be dual-wielded to make up for its 2-round capacity. It can fire both barrels at the same time; note that while the in-game model appropriately has two triggers, the Create-a-Class icon has only one. In singleplayer, it is used by some Brazilian Militiamen. The Ranger is shown being able to eject the spent shells when reloaded instead of having to dump them out manually.

==Sentinel Arms Striker-12 / Armsel Protecta Hybrid==
The [[Sentinel Arms Striker-12]] (referred to as the "Striker") is a shotgun in the game, using a roughly 12" barrel. The weapon is hybridized with the large shell deflector and the automatic ejection capabilities of the [[Armsel Protecta]]; later models of the Striker-12 do indeed have these Protecta features, but they also have a rear drum advance lever, which the in-game model lacks. Beyond that, the in-game model is odd in a few more ways: the winding key is modeled as a weird spike (likely modeled after a particular gun where the winding key is stripped down to just its post), while the muzzle is modeled with a strange protrusion.

The reload animation depicts the thumb tab to the right of the drum as a drum advance lever, turning the drum whenever it is pressed; there is no evidence that the thumb tab can be used as a drum advance lever in reality, and the Striker-12 manual describes the tab to be a button used to open or close the ejection port. It should also be noted that ''Modern Warfare 2'' is one of the first video games to depict the ejection port button being used as a drum advance lever, and very likely influenced later games to ''also'' depict the ejection port button as a drum advance lever.

Possibly to offset its large magazine, the Striker reloads slowly and has lower damage per shot than the other shotguns, requiring 2-3 hits to kill without Stopping Power.

==Winchester Model 1887==
The [[Winchester Model 1887]] appears in singleplayer and multiplayer. It is modeled after the custom 1887 used by [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] in ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'', featuring a shortened barrel, no stock, no trigger guard, and an enlarged lever loop. The 1887 can be dual-wielded; when akimbo, the weapons are flip-cocked as in ''Terminator 2''.

In singleplayer, it is used by some Brazilian Militia members. In multiplayer, the 1887 used to have the highest effective range of all shotguns, and its sole "attachment" is Akimbo. As shotguns are largely hipfired anyway, dual wielding the 1887's basically doubled the damage without downsides, making them notorious in the community before a patch decreased their Akimbo range to be more comparable to the dual Rangers. Another patch also slightly decreased the single 1887's range, leaving it outclassed by the SPAS-12 in pretty much all aspects.

The remaster correctly involves loading the shells into the magazine tube, with only the first shell being inserted into the barrel during empty reloads. The weapon is now flip-cocked at the end of every reload (even when not dual-wielded).

==Winchester 1200==
The [[Winchester 1200]] shotgun from MW1 was seen in the hands of Russian Internal Troops in the game's trailer; it was apparently a placeholder, as in the final game it is only featured in the "Museum" bonus level.

===Remastered version===
As with other shell-by-shell loading shotguns, the Winchester 1200's empty reload involves chambering a round first then loading the rest of the shells, and the pumping handle is not operated during a partial reload.

=Launchers=
== Saab Bofors Dynamics M136 AT4 ==
The [[M136 AT4]] appears in the game. The multiplayer version incorrectly fires guided rounds, and is referred to as "AT4-HS". "HS" most likely is abbreviated for "Heat-Seeking" and is also how it was able to guide its way to a moving aircraft but can still be counter measured by flares. The game also shows it as reloadable, seen when using it in multiplayer with the Scavenger perk.

==M79 grenade launcher==
The [[M79 grenade launcher]] appears as the "Thumper" in the game, and can be found in "The Hornet's Nest" and in some Spec Ops missions. It is available as a secondary weapon in multiplayer. In the former two gamemodes, it can be hipfired, but attempting to do so in MP will bring the sights into picture and fire the shot, similar to the RPG or AT4.

[[File:MW2R M79 (7).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Inspecting after firing the last shot shows the spent casing.]]

==FIM-92 Stinger==
The [[FIM-92 Stinger]] can be found in the levels "Wolverines!" and "The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday" in singleplayer, and is unlockable in multiplayer. The weapon can only be fired when locked onto helicopters or aircraft. It lacks the folding IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) antenna on the right side of the weapon, however this is not actually required to lock on to a target and fire the weapon.

[[File:MW2R Stinger (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Stinger locks on.]]

==FGM-148 Javelin==
The [[FGM-148 Javelin]] launcher is another available launcher for use in the game. While the multiplayer version is limited to one rocket in reserve (with the Scavenger perk), the singleplayer version has much more ammo. It is seen being used by the Russians, who seemingly appropriated them from military stockpiles upon invading US soil. The in-game Javelin has the erroneous ability to lock onto areas on the ground (not targets on the ground, but static objects or terrain), enabling it to function like a high-tech mortar.

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is a launcher in both singleplayer and multiplayer. In singleplayer, it is used by all enemy forces. Like MW1, it is a powerful weapon, but is atrociously inaccurate at long ranges, apparently because the rocket's stabilizing fins do not deploy and as a result cause the rocket to fly erratically.

=Attachments=
==M203 Grenade Launcher (Airsoft)==
The airsoft model of the [[M203 grenade launcher]], distinguishable by its distinctive RIS mount and lack of a trigger guard, returns from ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]'' as the standard grenade launcher for every assault rifle except the [[AK-47]]. It features a new firing sound, and unlike in the multiplayer of the previous installment, the M203 does not prevent the use of Perk 1. The single-player mission "Team Player" is the first time the player gets to use the M203, attached to an [[M4A1]].

Like MW1, a full 40mm grenade stands in for the grenade's casing during the reload animation). However, the M79 grenade launcher's reload animation does show an independent grenade casing model existing in-game, meaning that the M203's reload animation is recycled entirely from MW1.
[[File:G%26P_M203.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Airsoft''' M203 made by G&P - (fake) 40x46mm. Note the RIS mount and removed trigger guard.]]

[[File:MW2 M203 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading another.]]

===Remastered version===
The launcher is still modeled after an airsoft version, presumably reusing the same model from ''Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered''. Like in the previous remaster, the round being ejected while reloading is a proper spent casing.
[[File:MW2R M203 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Using the M203 mounted on a SCAR-H.]]

[[File:MW2R M203 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A view of the M203.]]

==Knight's Armament Masterkey==
The [[Knight's Armament Masterkey]] shotgun is frequently seen mounted to rifles as an underslung shotgun like the M203. It is mostly attached to the FN FAL or SCAR-H assault rifles, but is sometimes seen on other weapons. The shotgun carries an impossible 7 shells in singleplayer, and a more-realistic-but-still-one-extra 4 shells in multiplayer. In multiplayer, it is unlocked for assault rifles after 20 grenade launcher kills.
[[File:Masterkey02.jpg|thumb|none|450px|KAC Masterkey shotgun - 12 Gauge]]
[[File:MW2 Masterkey (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Working the Masterkey's pump in the necessary action movie style whenever opting to use it. Doing so would realistically eject a perfectly good shell. Switching to the Masterkey while sprinting or from a secondary weapon does not pump the shotgun.]]

[[File:MW2 Masterkey (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A good view of the device shown from the start of the FAL's reload.]]

===Remastered version===
The 7-round capacity from the original singleplayer has been decreased to the technically achievable 4 round in ''Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered''. Sadly however, the Masterkey didn't receive the appropriate difference in partial/empty reload process as with other shotguns, plus it is still pumped when switching to it, and the player character still grasps the pistol grip of their main rifle rather than operating the actual trigger of the Masterkey.
[[File:MW2R Masterkey (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ramirez holds a Masterkey mounted on an AK.]]

==GP-30==
The [[GP-30]] grenade launcher, incorrectly called the GP-25, is sometimes seen mounted on the [[AK-47]]s in-game. Like in ''Call of Duty 4'', a western 40mm grenade stands in for the Russian VOG-25 40mm grenade, and the player is incorrectly shown flicking the launcher downwards to eject a spent grenade casing upon firing the weapon, even though the real VOG-25 grenades are caseless; a full western 40mm grenade stands in for said spent grenade casing.

[[File:MW2R GP-25 (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|However, still like in ''MWR'', the player character unnecessarily flicks the safety lever after loading the launcher. The lever itself does not move and remains set to the "ОГ" fire position.]]

=Grenades/Explosives=
==M83 Smoke Grenade==
The [[M83 smoke grenade]] is the standard smoke grenade that can be used in the game; like COD4, they feature incorrect [[M18 smoke grenade]] textures, and may even be the exact same model. Colored versions are used to mark killstreak drop locations for some multiplayer killstreaks.

==M84 Stun Grenade==
[[M84 stun grenade]]s returns as the Flashbang and Stun Grenades. Flashbangs have a green stripe, while Stun Grenades have a red stripe.
[[File:M84-Flash-Bang-Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|150px|M84 stun grenade]]
[[File:MW2 M84.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Note that the character is only pulling the top pin and the lever is clipping into his hand.]]

==M18A1 Claymore==
The deployable [[Claymore]] is usable by the player, again depicted with the fictional laser tripwire detonators instead of being command detonation.

[[File:M18A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine with command cable and M57 'clacker' detonator switch]]

==C4==
The C4 from ''Call of Duty 4'' returns in ''Modern Warfare 2''.

Much like in ''Call of Duty 4'', the C4's Clacker is bizarrely used to call in some of the killstreaks, as if it was a radio, though other more sensible communication devices like colored smoke and rugged laptops are now present and used for other killstreaks.

==Fictional Bounding Mine==
The bounding mines featured in the mission "Loose Ends" resemble closely the fictional bounding mines seen in the Guantanamo scene from ''[[Bad_Boys_II#Fictional_Bounding_Mine|Bad Boys II]]''.
[[File:MW2 Boundingmine.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Fortunately for Roach, time slows down whenever he triggers one of these.]]

===Remastered version===

=Mounted Weapons=
==General Dynamics GAU-17/A==
In singleplayer, the [[General Dynamics GAU-17/A]], the first time the player gets to use the Minigun is in the level "Team Player", where it is mounted on M1026 HMMWVs; in this mission, it strangely fires in a circular spread. In the missions "Wolverines!" and "Exodus", the Minigun is used for the (fictional) M5 Sentry Gun emplacement, operated by both U.S. Army Rangers and Russian airborne infantry units, and available as a kill streak in multiplayer. In "Loose Ends", dismantled Miniguns can be found in Makarov's safehouse, and can later can be seen mounted on Shadow Company SUVs.

In a few multiplayer maps, Miniguns can be found mounted on objects, similarly to the [[M249]]s in [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|the first ''Modern Warfare]]''.

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The [[M197 Vulcan]] is mounted on AH-1W Super Cobras seen at the aircraft boneyard in "The Enemy of My Enemy" and in multiplayer. The Harrier jumpjets also inaccurately sport the very same gun pod from the Cobras in multiplayer in order to fulfill the fictional (for a Harrier) function of hovering over an area and providing fire support.

==Mark 19 Mod 3 Automatic Grenade Launcher==
A dismantled [[Mk 19 grenade launcher|Mark 19 Mod 3]] is seen on the ground next to a Humvee under repair in "S.S.D.D.". This is its sole appearance in the entire game, and it is never used.

==Browning M2HB==
One usable [[Browning M2]] is found mounted on a Brazilian technical truck in "The Hornet's Nest". Like other mounted weapons, it has infinite ammo and will overheat after continuous fire. They also appear mounted on the Stryker vehicle and the Abrams tank.

==KPV==
[[KPV]] heavy machine guns mounted in the ZPU-4 quad anti-aircraft mount are used by Russian paratroopers to engage US air support in "Exodus". They are also found on the multiplayer map "Afghan" and on the roofs of buildings on the multiplayer map "Strike." A miniature ZPU model is also present in the "Museum".

It reuses the same model from ''Call of Duty 4''.

==8 cm kurzer Granatwerfer 42==
[[Kurzer 8 cm Granatwerfer 42]] mortars are fired by OpFor troops in the "Team Player" singleplayer mission at the beginning at the other bridge shore. This is the third appearance of the model in the ''Call of Duty'' series after it first appeared in ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' and reappeared ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]''. The same model would later on be used in ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II]]'' level "Pyrrhic Victory". The mortar also appeared in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]'', but it thankfully no longer uses the ancient COD2 model in that game.

=Not Usable/Cut Weapons=
The following weapons appear in images, textures, and graphics present within the game. None are usable weapons, and none of them are known to have a 3D model.

==Makarov PM==
A poster of a [[Makarov PM]] is seen in the Multiplayer map 'Salvage" in the small house, along with SVD Dragunov and AKM Posters, and the plans of the attack on "No Russian".
[[File:MakarovPM.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Makarov PM - 9x18mm Makarov]]

[[File:Cod4mw mw2 akm poster.jpg|thumb|none|600px| AKM Poster. Note slant muzzle brake and orange plastic magazine similar the [[AK-74]]'s, but this is obviously a 7.62x39mm version.]]

==FN SCAR-L==
In the multiplayer menu background image, we see a soldier carrying a third generation [[FN SCAR|SCAR-L]] with an EOTech sight, AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, and a vertical foregrip, but it was never used in the game.

==Heckler & Koch HK91A3==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK91A3]] from ''Modern Warfare'' appears in trailers and early screenshots, but was dropped from the final game, most likely in favor of the FAL.
[[File:HK91A3.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Heckler & Koch HK91A3 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:Vlc 2009-09-03 10-20-00-79.png|thumb|none|600px|Pre-release airport security with the HK91.]]

==Enfield L85==
The kill-feed icon for the [[Enfield L85 rifle series#L86A1|L86 LSW]] in multiplayer depicts an [[L85]] with a SUSAT scope instead. Evidence suggests that the in-game L86 LSW was an L85 at one point during development: the unremoved kill-feed icon, and that the L86's texture sheet has the L85's 30-round magazine. The fact that the L86's maximum singleplayer ammo is 420 rounds, a number divisible by the 30-round L85 mags rather than the 100-round drums found on the in-game L86, also supports this idea.

Seeing as the L86A1 in-game features the L85 handguard, it is likely that an L85A1 model was modified into the L86A1 model seen in the final game.

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

[[File:Mw 22 x13 (4).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Brass checking the Glock 18. Not much is different from the X12 seen above, except for the (unusable) fire selector, where red seems to be full-auto and white is semi-automatic. Or maybe it's just a safety and the gun is full-auto only, as it cannot be switched to semi-auto in gameplay.]]
[[File:Mw 22 x13 (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Another small change from the X12 are the standard iron sights, which now have a green front post.]]

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

[[File:Mw 22 x13 (6).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pulling back on the external charging handle to release the slide on empty.]]

===Glock 18 (3D printed)===
3D printed Glock pistols appear in the hands of terrorists in the post-credits scene. The pistols are likely based on the "X13 Auto" model, as they feature a selector switch on the right side of the slide.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

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

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

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

===AK-104===

[[File:Mw22 ak thing (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AK-104 in the gunsmith preview screen.]]

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

===AK-74M===

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

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

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

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

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).
[[File:Mk18SpecializedArmaments.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 18 Mod 0 with standard M4 handguard and 6-position stock - 5.56x45mm]]
[[File:Mw22 m16 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Combine the M16, the "11.5 Carbine Shroud" and telescopic stock and you got yourself a Mk18 Mod 0.]]

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

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

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

[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the loadout screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19'''s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock.

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

===Heckler & Koch HK11===
Equipping the “Romeo FT 16" Barrel” or “15.9" Lachmann Rapp Barrel” makes for a [[Heckler & Koch HK11]] mockup.

===HK51===
The shorter barrels such as the “Meer-56 11" Factory Barrel” can be used for an [[HK51]]-style carbine.

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

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

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

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

==Honey Badger / SIG-Sauer MCX hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (with the “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

[[File:MW22_M4_Flatline_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10 round magazines.
[[File:MW22 FTAC RECON.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The .458 carbine in the loadout screen. The auto sear pin is not present, despite other select fire AR-15 variants correctly featuring this detail.]]

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle. It has an M14 EBR-RI / M39 EMR style longer barrel by default, but can be modified with a standard Mk 14 EBR sized barrel.

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

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

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

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

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

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

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

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants.
[[File:AES 10B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Century Arms AES 10B - 7.62x39mm. This is a US import version of the Romanian PM md. 64]]
[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features). It can also equip a fictional 100 round PMAG as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.

[[File:MWII M4 CG (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Carl Gustaf, as seen in the launcher camo customization tab.]]

==FGM-148 Javelin==
The stylized [[FGM-148 Javelin]] returns as the "JOKR".

[[File:MWII FGM-148 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Right side view of the Javelin system.]]

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR variants, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the Gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]
[[File:MWII FN40GL (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-L/FN40GL combo in Gunsmith.]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]
[[File:MWII GP-25 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the GP-25 underneath an AKMS mockup.]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".
[[File:XM203.jpg|thumb|none|350px|'''Airsoft''' Madbull XM203 - (fake) 40x46mm]]

[[File:MWII XM203 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Fire Drake" launcher on an AUG A3-CQC style build.]]

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.

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

[[File:MWII Gaz MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Sweet heat!"'' Gaz receiving a Milkor MSGL given to him by Price during the Al-Qatala convoy chase in Al-Mazrah.]]

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

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.
[[File:9K333 Verba.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-25 (9K333 Verba) - 72mm]]

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".
[[File:Model 7290.jpg|thumb|none|140px|Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

=Mounted Weapons=
==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.
[[File:BrowningM2 plain.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]

[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

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

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s.

[[File:MWII AH-64 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AH-64 now apparently with both airframes' M230 autocannons - though only the one in the actual correct mounting position is actually used.]]

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.
[[File:RLII.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Kimber Custom TLE/RL II - .45 ACP]]
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:1911 mw22.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The 1911 in the cartel member's belt.]]

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

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

'''''Generation Zero''''' is a 2019 co-op, open world, first-person shooter survival game developed and published by Avalanche Studios. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic Sweden in an alternate 1989, which has become overrun by killer robots. These robots were built after World War II for defensive purposes, but have since become hostile to all humans. The player assumes the role of a Swedish teenager who, upon returning from an island excursion, finds that their home has been abandoned and overrun with killer robots, and must survive the Swedish wilderness while attempting to determine the fate of those who used to live there.

Weapons, ammo, and weapon modifications in ''Generation Zero'' are found scattered across the open world map. Weapons have up to five possible modifications: scopes, vision modules (modules equipped on scopes, excluding the red dot sight, that grant infrared, night, or wall-penetrating vision), barrel modifications, magazine extensions, and alternate ammunition. Weapons and weapon modifications come in five quality tiers, improving in capability as the tiers go up.

__TOC__
 

=Sidearms=

==Walther PP==
The [[Walther PP]] appears as the "Möller PP". The pistol has a base capacity of 8 rounds. Can be fitted with a suppressor. Fires .32 ACP FMJ or Hollow-Point rounds.

==Glock 17==
A very embellished [[Glock 17]] appears as the "Klaucke 17" and has a base capacity of 17 rounds. The barrel can be fitted with a suppressor. It fires 9mm FMJ or AP Pistol rounds, which are incompatible with those used by 9mm SMGs.
[[File:Glock173rdGen.jpg|thumb|none|350px|3rd Generation Glock 17 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:Klaucke_17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|View of the gun in the inventory. The shape of the rail (which would be anachronistic for 1989), the thumb indent, and the shape of the slide are reminiscent of the [[Steyr M9-A1]].]]

[[File:Klaucke_17-ADS.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming down the weapon's sights.]]

==Ruger Super Redhawk==
The [[Ruger Super Redhawk]] appears in-game as the ".44 Magnus". The pistol has a capacity of 6 rounds, which cannot be expanded. It is the only pistol that can be use a short-range scope and vision modules. Muzzle attachments include a recoil-reducing compensator or a suppressor (despite the fact that, realistically, the gases escaping from the gap between the cylinder and barrel would render a suppressor pointless). Fires .44 Magnum in two ammo types: hollow point and FMJ, with the latter being both stronger and rarer.

=Shotguns=

==Remington Model 870==
The [[Remington Model 870]] appears as the "12G Pump-Action". The shotgun has a capacity of 6 rounds, which cannot be extended. The barrel can be fitted with a shotgun choke to tighten the shot pattern, or a suppressor. The gun uses 12 gauge shells, which has three types: birdshot (low accuracy, low damage but wider area of effect), buckshot (better accuracy and damage but smaller area), and slugs (best in Accuracy and damage but is like a rifle round). The gun can use red dot sight that excludes vision modules, or a low-power shotgun scope that can use vision enhancements.

==Sjögren shotgun==
The [[Sjögren]] appears as the "Sjöqvist Semi-Auto". The shotgun has a capacity of 5 rounds, which cannot be extended. It can use the shotgun choke, but not the Suppressor. Fires the same 12 gauge ammo as the 12G Pump-Action. No optics are available.

=Submachine guns=

==Carl Gustav m/45 "Swedish K"==
The [[Carl Gustav M/45]] appears as the "M/46 "Kpist" SMG". It has a base capacity of 36 rounds, and can only fire in full auto. It can be fitted with a suppressor or a compensator. The SMG uses 9mm SMG rounds (incompatible with the 9mm pistol rounds), in either full metal jacket or armor-piercing types. It can use a red dot sight.

Despite the fact that it is clearly intended to be the m/45, it uses the pistol grip of the [[Smith & Wesson Model 76]], a submachine gun that is officially 100% totally unrelated to the m/45, and all of their similarities (like the identical operating system, ammunition, stock, and handling) and the fact that the Model 76 was specifically chosen to replace the m/45 in American service is a total coincidence.

It features neither the stock of the m/45 nor the Model 76. Much like other weapons in the game, it's stock is completely fictional.

==Heckler & Koch MP5==
A model of the [[Heckler & Koch MP5]] appears as the "HP5". It has a base capacity of 30 rounds, and can toggle between full and semi-auto modes. Its attachments and ammo options are identical to the Kpist SMG.

Because of it's fire selector, it can be identified as an MP5A2 (fixed stock, 3-position fire selector) or MP5A3 (folding stock, 3-position fire selector), but the specific one can not be identified with the stock removed and replaced with an aftermarket side-folding stock. While it hypothetically could be the never-issued MP5A1 (stockless) with a stock simply welded onto it's end-cap, it also features a newer fire selector and tropical handguard, neither of which the MP5A1 were ever used with as production didn't make it far enough (as you can imagine, the demand for a stockless MP5, when the MP5A3's stock could be collapsed to make it the same length, was pretty much non-existent).

=Sniper Rifles=

==Sako 85==
The [[Sako 85]] appears as the "Meusser Hunting Rifle". It has a capacity of 5 rounds, which cannot be expanded. Its barrel can be fitted with a suppressor, and it has three low-to-medium-powered rifle scope options along with vision modules. The rifle can be loaded with .243 Soft-Point or Full Metal Jacket rounds.

==Winchester Model 70==
A synthetic-stocked [[Winchester Model 70]] appears as the ""Älgstudsare" Hunting Rifle". It has the same attachment options as the Sako, complete with a lack of upgrades to its capacity (only four rounds), and is chambered in .270, using either SP or FMJ rounds.

==Barrett M107==
The [[Barrett M107]] appears as the "Pansarvärnsgevär 90". The rifle has a base capacity of 10 rounds, which can be expanded unlike the other two rifles. It can use two high-powered rifle scope attachments, and has no barrel attachments. It fires .50 cal FMJ or AP rounds. Although it is a bit embellished, the model looks most like the M107, which is anachronistic for 1989. The Swedish Army did adopt the M82 in 1989 but the M107 was not developed until 2002.

=Assault Rifles=
==Heckler & Koch G3==
The [[Heckler & Koch G3]] appears as the "Automatgevär 4". The rifle has a base capacity of 20 rounds, and can toggle between full and semi-auto modes. Its barrel options include a suppressor or an extended barrel. It can be fitted with a red dot sight or a low-powered rifle scope. The rifle fires 7.62mm FMJ or AP rounds, which it shares with the AI-76, despite the G3 not sharing its ammo with the AKM in reality.

==FN FNC / Ak 5 Hybrid==
A hybrid of the [[FN FNC]] and the [[Ak 5|Bofors Ak 5]] appears as the "Automatgevär 5". It has the four-position safety of the original FNC, as well as a front sight similar to it, but combined with a handguard similar to the Swedish Ak 5. The rifle has a base capacity of 30 rounds, and can toggle between full and semi-auto modes. Attachments are the same as the "Automatgevär 4". The rifle uses 5.56mm FMJ or AP rounds.

==AKM==
The [[AKM]] appears as the "Al-76 Assault Rifle". The rifle has a base capacity of 30 rounds, and can toggle between full-auto, semi-auto, and 3-round-burst modes. The barrel attachments are the same as the other two rifles, but it can only use the red dot sight and cannot use the low-powered rifle scope and the vision modules. It fires the same 7.62mm FMJ or AP rounds as the "Automatgevär 4". The name and magazine curve both imply the [[AK-74]], but because it uses 7.62 ammunition, it must be the AKM. The description identifying it as the most popular assault rifle in the world corroborates that.

=Machine guns=
==Ksp-58B==
The Carl Gustaf [[FN MAG#Ksp 58|Ksp-58B]] appears as the "Kvm 59". Like the AG-5, it is an FN designed weapon manufactured by Carl Gustaf specifically for the Swedish military and redisgnated. It is incorrectly depicted as having a disintegrating belt. While disintegrating belts for the FN MAG platform do exist (such as the U.S. military's M13 belt, now the NATO standard), it was originally used with a disintegrating one. It can be identified as the 'B' variant by it's use of 7.62x51mm NATO ammunition with otherwise original specs.

==Carl Gustav recoilless rifle==
The [[Carl Gustav recoilless rifle]] appears as the "Granatgevär m/49". It can fire smoke rounds to create smokescreens, EMP rounds to temporarily disable robots, or High Explosive Dual-Purpose rounds to deal heavy damage to the robots.

'''''Generation Zero''''' is a 2019 co-op, open world, first-person shooter survival game developed and published by Avalanche Studios. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic Sweden in an alternate 1989, which has become overrun by killer robots. These robots were built after World War II for defensive purposes, but have since become hostile to all humans. The player assumes the role of a Swedish teenager who, upon returning from an island excursion, finds that their home has been abandoned and overrun with killer robots, and must survive the Swedish wilderness while attempting to determine the fate of those who used to live there.

Weapons, ammo, and weapon modifications in ''Generation Zero'' are found scattered across the open world map. Weapons have up to five possible modifications: scopes, vision modules (modules equipped on scopes, excluding the red dot sight, that grant infrared, night, or wall-penetrating vision), barrel modifications, magazine extensions, and alternate ammunition. Weapons and weapon modifications come in five quality tiers, improving in capability as the tiers go up.

__TOC__
 

=Sidearms=

==Walther PP==
The [[Walther PP]] appears as the "Möller PP". The pistol has a base capacity of 8 rounds. Can be fitted with a suppressor. Fires .32 ACP FMJ or Hollow-Point rounds.

==Glock 17==
A very embellished [[Glock 17]] appears as the "Klaucke 17" and has a base capacity of 17 rounds. The barrel can be fitted with a suppressor. It fires 9mm FMJ or AP Pistol rounds, which are incompatible with those used by 9mm SMGs.

[[File:Klaucke_17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|View of the gun in the inventory. The shape of the rail (which would be anachronistic for 1989), the thumb indent, and the shape of the slide are reminiscent of the [[Steyr M9-A1]].]]

[[File:Klaucke_17-ADS.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming down the weapon's sights.]]

==Ruger Super Redhawk==
The [[Ruger Super Redhawk]] appears in-game as the ".44 Magnus". The pistol has a capacity of 6 rounds, which cannot be expanded. It is the only pistol that can be use a short-range scope and vision modules. Muzzle attachments include a recoil-reducing compensator or a suppressor (despite the fact that, realistically, the gases escaping from the gap between the cylinder and barrel would render a suppressor pointless). Fires .44 Magnum in two ammo types: hollow point and FMJ, with the latter being both stronger and rarer.

=Shotguns=

==Remington Model 870==
The [[Remington Model 870]] appears as the "12G Pump-Action". The shotgun has a capacity of 6 rounds, which cannot be extended. The barrel can be fitted with a shotgun choke to tighten the shot pattern, or a suppressor. The gun uses 12 gauge shells, which has three types: birdshot (low accuracy, low damage but wider area of effect), buckshot (better accuracy and damage but smaller area), and slugs (best in Accuracy and damage but is like a rifle round). The gun can use red dot sight that excludes vision modules, or a low-power shotgun scope that can use vision enhancements.

==Sjögren shotgun==
The [[Sjögren]] appears as the "Sjöqvist Semi-Auto". The shotgun has a capacity of 5 rounds, which cannot be extended. It can use the shotgun choke, but not the Suppressor. Fires the same 12 gauge ammo as the 12G Pump-Action. No optics are available.

=Submachine guns=

==Carl Gustav m/45 "Swedish K"==
The [[Carl Gustav M/45]] appears as the "M/46 "Kpist" SMG". It has a base capacity of 36 rounds, and can only fire in full auto. It can be fitted with a suppressor or a compensator. The SMG uses 9mm SMG rounds (incompatible with the 9mm pistol rounds), in either full metal jacket or armor-piercing types. It can use a red dot sight.

Despite the fact that it is clearly intended to be the m/45, it uses the pistol grip of the [[Smith & Wesson Model 76]], a submachine gun that is officially 100% totally unrelated to the m/45, and all of their similarities (like the identical operating system, ammunition, stock, and handling) and the fact that the Model 76 was specifically chosen to replace the m/45 in American service is a total coincidence.

It features neither the stock of the m/45 nor the Model 76. Much like other weapons in the game, it's stock is completely fictional.

'''''Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare''''' is the 2016 entry in the ongoing Call of Duty franchise, developed by Infinity Ward, with assistance from Treyarch, Beenox, Raven Software, and High Moon Studios, and released for Windows PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. It takes the series further into the future than it has ever been, with Earth now depleted of resources and dependent on colonies throughout the solar system for raw materials. However, recently a group of these colonies seceded in a bloody war (seemingly for the sole reason that their entire populations were moustache-twirlingly evil), forming the Settlement Defense Front. The story begins with the SDF opening a new offensive against Earth, with the player taking on the role of Commander Nick Reyes (voiced by [[Brian Bloom]]), a member of SCAR (Special Combat Air Recon) which appears to be a SEAL-like unit attached to Earth's space navy.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Infinite Warfare features two types of weapons - ballistic and energy.

Ballistic weapons, like the M1 Garand or "NV4", fire conventional rounds and are able to penetrate some surfaces. They are also less effective against robotic enemies compared to energy weapons in the campaign. Each weapon type has access to different attachments. Unique attachments include Extended Mags, which increases magazine capacity and ammo in reserve, FMJ, which improve the weapons ability to penetrate surfaces, Hollow Point, which increases headshot damage multipliers and Rifled Barrel, which extends the damage range of the weapon.

Energy weapons, like the "Volk" or "EMC" fire blue energy rounds, which have a blue square muzzle flash, they regenerate/"recharge" rounds from the players reserve ammunition when not in use, the individual cells are not ejected when firing, unlike the shells of ballistic ammunition, shots reflect/bounce off surfaces instead of penetrating them like ballistic weapons, and they are more effective against robotic enemies in the campaign. Unique attachments include the Fusion Mags, which regenerate energy rounds while the weapon is holstered, Ram Servo, which allows shots to reflect twice, Particle Amp, which extends the damage range of the weapon, and the Faraday Slug will increase headshot damage multipliers.

Some energy weapons like the "Banshee" or the "Gravity Vortex Gun" feature more exotic ammo types that are different to the standard blue energy rounds. These include compressed air, beams of red energy and the rather unbelievable ability to fire black holes.

Most of the attachments do not alter the weapons visually, such as the Extended Mags attachment not altering the size of the magazines. Additionally, some attachments don't make a lot of sense - the Rifled Barrel attachment implies ballistic weapons do not have rifled barrels by default, which is preposterous, and the Stock attachment is available for weapons that do not have a stock, such as pistols, and it doesn't add a pistol stock to the weapon either.

=Handguns=
=="EMC"==
The "EMC", standing for "Electro-Magnetic Compact", is an energy pistol primarily based on the [[Springfield Armory XD|Springfield Armory XD Subcompact]], albeit a little larger. The slide reciprocates when firing, which also includes the battery. When reloading, the top rear section of the pistol (what would normally be the rear of the slide on a conventional pistol design) is removed and swapped out for a new battery. The pistol has a small trigger guard, and a larger framework piece around the trigger guard that helps secure the (unusable) underbarrel laser aiming module to the pistol, which is hardly necessary - the underbarrel rail should be more than enough to keep it on the pistol. This LAM is reminiscent of the one seen on the [[USP]] present in the original [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern]] [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2|Warfare]] [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3|trilogy]].

In the single-player campaign, the weapon is used by both SATO and SDF forces, including Admiral Salen Kotch (voiced by [[Kit Harington]]).

==Glock 18C==
The [[Glock 18C]] is the only secondary "classic" weapon available in the game; it is referred to as the "Hornet", referencing the ''Modern Warfare 2'' mission "The Hornet's Nest", where a "G18" (actually a full-auto converted [[Glock 17]] in the original ''MW2'', but a proper G18C in the remaster, due to it reusing this very model) was the starting handgun. By default, it is fitted with a 33-round magazine by default, which only holds 20 rounds and 30 when using the Extended Mags attachment. Additionally, the "Cartel" variant of the "Kendall 44" seen below is based on a Glock 18C.

=="Hailstorm"==
The "Hailstorm" is a massive fictional revolver bearing a distinct resemblance to the [[RSh-12]] revolver. It is mechanically bizarre in several ways: it fires in three-round bursts, using a sort of en-bloc clip of four 3-round superposed load chambers in the cylinder (the game calls this a "chamber stack"). The rounds appear to have casings, which would not work unless they are some kind of combustible casing. While the name implies it is supposed to be some kind of [[Metal Storm weapons|Metal Storm]]-style system, the weapon appears to use a traditional firing pin, which would only be able to strike the rear cartridge's primer (while an argument could be made that the burst works through a deliberate chain fire, with each cartridge setting off the next, the recoil of the weapon would likely cause this to happen to all of the chambers when the weapon was fired, most likely causing the gun to explode); the hammer operates exclusively in single-action, striking the firing pin 3 times, despite there being no obvious reason for it to self-cock (normal self-cocking revolvers such as the [[Webley-Fosbery Automatic Revolver]] have some form of recoiling segment to cock the hammer, usually the barrel and upper frame). The cylinder is actually a shell in which the real, detachable set of chambers sits, with nothing obvious to hold it in place, and the weapon's cylinder is hexagonal, despite it only having 4 chambers to rotate between (12 shots total).

=="Kendall 44"==
A striker-fired ballistic pistol resembling the [[Glock 19]] is the UNSA standard issue sidearm in the game, chambered in a fictional "44 ACP" cartridge. By default it feeds from a 16-round magazine and fires semi-automatically, but can be upgraded with 24 round magazines and the ability to fire in full-auto. The weapon has the "Kendall Ballistics" logo on the slide. the description states it has an integral attachment (as the text appears in blue, "integral attachments" in this game usually means "things the gun does") called Lightweight Mold, which gives the weapon a very small hipfire spread compared to other pistols. The HUD icon has an unusable flashlight mounted on a pistol rail mount system, which is absent by default, but returns when an optic is equipped.

The "Kendall 44" has different magazine capacities in campaign and Zombies. It has 10 and 15 round capacities in campaign, and 8 and 12 round capacities in Zombies, fitting with the tradition of having the starting pistol in Zombies have 8 rounds. In campaign, when fully upgraded it gains the Full Auto upgrade, which functions the exact same way as the multiplayer Auto Sear attachment and turns the gun into a psuedo-Glock 18, despite a Glock 18 already existing in the game. The resemblance is even stronger with the "Cartel" variant, which has an engraved G18C-inspired slide.

==Taurus Raging Bull==
A visually altered [[Taurus Raging Bull]] appears as the "Stallion .44"; it was added via an update on July 25, 2017. It comes with top and underbarrel rails, a custom trigger, and a different trigger guard and rear cylinder latch; the front latch is also relocated upwards. Like in ''Call of Duty: Ghosts'', it is used in single-action mode, but this time the player character fans the hammer when hip-firing, increasing the rate of fire in the process. Ironically, when used in akimbo, each revolver uses the "fast" fire rate despite the character cocking it with their firing hand's thumb. The weapon repeats the same mistake as in ''Ghosts'' of swinging out a non-empty cylinder with the hammer still cocked and having the hammer pulled before closing the cylinder on an empty reload. Due to its addition later in the lifecycle of the game, it is classed among the futuristic handguns rather than the "classic" weapons.

=="UDM"==
Added via update on February 28th, 2017, the "UDM" is a fictional full-auto machine pistol based on an SRU Precision bullpup conversion kit for Tokyo Marui airsoft [[Glock]] pistols. It features a stock, an integrated reflex sight mounted on the slide, and a 14-round translucent magazine inserted into the very rear of the grip frame. Oddly, its slide does not sit flush with the end of the frame and the description states it is made from "modular parts". In the game files, the weapon is called the "UDM45", suggesting it is chambered in .45 ACP.

The rarest variant, the "Stalker", effectively turns the weapon into a semi-automatic compact sniper rifle with a non-functioning suppressor and very obstructive low-zoom scope, accompanied with a longer barrel and handguard along with an extremely short, not-at-all-cheek-weld-compatible stock. The magazine capacity is reduced to 10 rounds, and damage is increased to the point where the weapon is as powerful as the much higher caliber M1 Garand or "DMR-1". The weapon loses the ability to be dual wielded.

=Submachine Guns=
=="FHR-40"==
The "FHR-40" is a fictional submachine gun resembling an [[FN P90]], with a bolt locking recess resembling an [[H&K MP5]]. According to the game's description, it uses a magnetic bolt carrier to increase fire rate: presumably this means the bolt group is "floated" inside the receiver like a maglev train rather than being guided by contact with the receiver as in a conventional gun. The practicality of this is rather questionable, as the decreased friction of a magnetically suspended bolt would have very little effect on the operation of the weapon. This would also mean the weapon required power to function, not to mention the fact that when magnets are heated (for instance, when placed near the chamber of a submachine gun with an absurd fire rate), they lose their magnetism, which would render the weapon more or less completely useless as the bolt group would start to move around off-centre inside the carrier.

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
The [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] was added via an update on March 2, 2017. It is referred to as the "Trencher" in-game, and is classed among the futuristic submachine guns rather than the "classic" weapons, similarly to the Raging Bull.
[[File:Mp28.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CoDIW-MP28.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP28/II in the weapon selection menu. It's not clear why it's called the "Trencher", as the MP28 came after the era of trench warfare; it's possible that it's standing in for a [[Bergmann MP18]].]]

==Heckler & Koch UMP45==
The [[Heckler & Koch UMP45]] is one of the classic weapons. It is called "MacTav-45" in-game, as a reference to the protagonist John "Soap" MacTavish from the ''Modern Warfare'' series. The charging handle incorrectly locks back on its own before reloading an empty magazine, and the safety is on. Unlike in previous games, the UMP has a Surefure M900 foregrip, complete with unusable laser sight. It has 32 rounds in the magazine instead of the correct 25, which increases to 48 with the extended mags attachment. Like the "HVR" seen below, the weapon has a railed handguard.

".45 S&W" can be seen written at the bottom of the magazine, even though this caliber isn't available to any UMP in reality.

[[File:CODIWUMP.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A multiplayer character looks at some space debris with his trusty UMP45 in hand.]]

==="HVR"===
The "HVR" resembles a UMP45 with its stock folded and it has a permanently attached foregrip, like the "MacTav-45". It also has a railed handguard with rail covers and two bulky looking laser sight devices, which are non-functional. It also has an integrated "ELO" sight, and 26 or 39 round magazines. In singleplayer, it is the only weapon in the campaign that does not have a specified spawn location, and so can only be acquired from having it spawn randomly. The weapon has no built-in ability, and its final unlock is the ability to dual-wield it. The weapon has Japanese markings which read "Fujiwara", the name of the fictional company that make this weapon in-universe.

Interestingly, one of the variants of the HVR, the "Gemini", which can uniquely be dual-wielded in multiplayer, has the body of a [[Heckler & Koch USC]], right down to the distinctive light gray coloration (albeit with a standard UMP barrel with a suppressor, rather than the USC's 16" one).

[[File:CoDIW HVR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "HVR" in the beta menu selection. Note that it apparently uses "terrestrial ammo" for increased stopping power. This seems to be a reference to ''Infinite Warfare's'' background story where Earth's natural resources are largely depleted and it depends on other planets for supplies: seemingly this is made by some patriotic company using Earth-sourced materials because they're better or something.]]

=="Karma-45"==
The "Karma-45" is a futuristic [[TDI Vector]]. It has two barrels, two ejection ports, and two magazines. Since only one of the magazines is replaced if less than half the rounds have been expended and it only has one trigger, presumably one of the magazines (and accompanying reciever) is emptied first, with the second one then being automatically switched to. It is known as the "CRB" in the game files, which refers to the civilian semi-automatic Vector that has a 16" barrel, and was the same name incorrectly applied to the standard Vector in ''[[Call of Duty: Ghosts|Ghosts]]''. The "Deimos" special variant has the stock removed and uses flush-fitting magazines.

=="VPR"==
The "VPR" is a double-barreled submachine gun added via an update on March 28, 2017. The weapon is directly based on the [[Heckler & Koch MP5K]], while the "Yokai" variant is inspired by the full-size [[MP5A3]]. Unlike the Karma-45, it fires both barrels at once. The foregrip is the pistol grip of an [[AKM]].

=Assault & Battle Rifles=
==Beretta ARX-160==
The [[Beretta ARX-160]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: Ghosts]]'' as the OSA (standing for Orbital Space Aeronautics). The model is ripped from ''Ghosts'' with no edits, judging by the fact that it still has an [[FN 40GL]] (with a missing trigger) mounted instead of a [[Beretta GLX-160|Beretta GLX160]], and the magazine still has no rounds visible inside when reloading.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in ''Infinite Warfare'' simply as the "M1". The in-game description states that its "top-loading clip" (written in blue text, signifying that it is an "integral attachment" which has gone from sometimes being an attachment in ''Ghosts'' to just meaning "a thing the gun does") can only be reloaded by emptying it. It is possible to eject a partially expended clip from the Garand using the clip latch, but this was not generally used as a method of reloading it in combat since real soldiers do not carry magical elves in their webbing to consolidate unfired rounds into nice full clips. On the gameplay side, this decision is likely intended for a retro WWII game experience, when old WWII first-person shooters followed the Garand manual-of-arms closely and thus did not perform mid-magazine reloads.

==="DMR-1"===
A modernized version of the rifle appears as the "DMR-1", sporting a VLTOR Cluster Rail, cheekpiece with cartridge holders, unusable laser sights, absurdly large muzzle device, and an scope by default, mounted off to the left of the rifle like the M1C and M1D marksman rifles. This version can have its clip ejected when partially empty. The "Spectacle" variant appears to be based on the T26 "Tanker Garand" carbine, with a muzzle device borrowed from a Springfield Armory [[M1A SOCOM 16]]. Unlike the regular M1 Garand you can reload the "DMR-1" before all 8 rounds have been shot.

==="EBR-800"===
The "EBR-800" is a fictitious sniper rifle/assault rifle hybrid based off the M1 Garand. The weapon shoots bolts of energy and is fed by large, side-loading batteries which hold 6 shots in sniper mode. Thanks to the unexplained properties of the energy rounds in this game, simply flipping the scope off to the left and shortening the barrel via no obvious mechanism turns the weapon into a full-auto rifle with 30 shots of energy ammo.

=="NV4"==
The "NV4" is an assault rifle available in game, essentially a VLTOR/Magpul themed custom built [[M4A1 Carbine]] fitted with various futuristic embellishments (even being referred to as the "M4" in the game files). The custom upper receiver has a VLTOR MUR-1A forward assist, and cutouts on the left side that resemble Battle Arms Development receiver or Gun Point GEN2 receiver. The handguard is based on the VLTOR CASV and is fitted with a pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 laser modules (neither of which actually do anything). When optics are attached the top one disappears and the side-mounted one changes appearance. The rifle is equipped with a futuristic Magpul MBUS Gen 1 rear sight with illuminated white dots and an ammo counter. The stock is a futuristic take on the Magpul STR, with a sling loop placed on the top, similar to ACE stocks. The pistol grip is based on Magpul MIAD Gen 1, while the magazines are fitted with a futuristic interpretation of the Magpul Ranger Plate. It also has a sling based on Magpul MS3 GEN2. The word "Nova" is inscribed on the side of the weapon, this is perhaps what "NV" stands for in the weapon's name.

The weapon appears on the main cover art for the game, fitted with a suppressor and foregrip. Interestingly, some pieces of official promo art depict the weapon being disassembled by detaching the handguard, barrel, and stock from the receiver, despite one of the more distinctive features of M4 and/or AR-15-pattern rifles being the ability to separate the upper and lower receivers easily for transport and maintenance.

Reloading the "NV4" with the reload-speed-boosting Dexterity perk will have the user flip out the old magazine to the left instead of dropping it out.

On January 12, 2018, the "Honey-B" variant was added via an update. It features an integral suppressor described as modifying the firing characteristics "in a way reminiscent of [[AAC Honey Badger|a particular weapon]] from [[Call of Duty: Ghosts|the past]]". The model does feature some cosmetic alterations, but none of them actually make it closer in appearance to a real AAC Honey Badger.

Also note the futuristic AN/PEQ-2 laser module and the sling equipped with some kind of a display.]]

=="Type-2"==
The "Type-2" is an energy based rifle heavily resembling the [[Magpul FMG-9]]; the game files indeed refer to it as "FMG". It can be split into two dual-wielded weapons at the player's discretion. Oddly enough, the P90 magazine-esque energy cell only feeds into the rear of these two weapons, begging the question of how exactly energy is transferred to the front gun when the two are detached.

=="Volk"==
An [[AKM]] somewhat resembling the customized AKM from ''[[Elysium#AKM|Elysium]]'' appears as an energy-firing assault rifle known as the "Volk". It is fairly commonly used by Settlement Defense Front soldiers in campaign. It is referred to as "AKE" in the game files, presumably standing for "Avtomat Kalashnikov Energy".

The weapon has a large polymer barrel shroud with rail mounts, which presumably swaps out the standard barrel and gas system of the AKM for the energy round barrel, positioned slightly below where the barrel is on a normal AKM. The bottom rail has a non functioning laser sight attached to it. A polymer stock, in which the outline of an [[AKS-74]] stock can be seen, is fitted to the weapon, adorned with wires and some sort of battery. The receiver has a top-mounted rail, complete with illuminated sights, along with what appear to be a pair of CPUs. As this weapon is presumably a normal AKM converted to fire energy rounds, these wires, processors and battery packs on the side of the weapon and on the stock may be some of the mechanisms that are normally inside the purpose-built energy weapons, which allow them to fire energy rounds. The magazine is now made of a translucent polymer, but it remains curved, despite the fact that the energy rounds are visible through the sides and they are visibly rectangular in shape, meaning the curve is only in the magazine in order to make it look more like an AK. Perhaps it is a 7.62x39mm AK mag, adapted to hold energy rounds like the battery packs of other energy weapons in-game. The magazine has a capacity of 28 rounds, but only 10 separate cells can be seen inside the magazine, implying each cell has enough energy for 2-3 shots. Said cells are not ejected when firing, just like every other energy weapon. Furthermore, the magazine well has been modified to the point where a normal AK magazine could no longer fit inside it, as it lacks the necessary locking mechanism found on the real AKM. This modified magwell somewhat resembles a [[G36]] magwell, complete with the release paddle, which is correctly used when reloading.

The "Retro" and "Vintage" variant converts the weapon to a conventional ballistic weapon, rather than being an energy weapon, this means these variants have access to ballistic weapon attachments, like FMJ or Extended Mags. They also lose the auto-regenerating ammo and shot reflection traits of energy weapons, instead gaining the penetration ability of ballistic weapons.

=="X-Eon"==
First appearing as a VR gun simulator on board the ''Retribution'', this weapon appears to be based on the [[FN SCAR-H]]. It was later added to multiplayer and Zombies as the "X-Eon"; there, it functions as a fully-automatic energy assault rifle which somehow changes its fire rate depending on whether the player aims down the sights or hipfires. Like the NV4, reloading with the Dexterity perk will also show a fancy mag flip.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention==
The [[Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention]] appears as a "classic" weapon, where it goes by the moniker "TF-141", referencing the ''Modern Warfare'' series' fictional Task Force 141.
[[File:M200.jpg|thumb|none|450px|CheyTac M-200 - .408 CheyTac]]

==="Widowmaker"===
Another sniper rifle resembling the Intervention also appears, called the "Widowmaker", and is a truly bizarre sight to behold. Despite only having one barrel, it fires in 2-round bursts from a 12-round magazine (which, given its size in comparison to the casings that the weapon ejects, could barely hold 5); the weapon fires twice with each trigger pull, then the bolt is worked, and two spent casings are ejected from the weapon, along with any last trace of functional conceivability that the weapon might have had. The name seems to be a potential reference to Blizzard's game ''Overwatch'', where a character named Widowmaker wields a (far more functionally plausible) burst-firing sniper rifle.

=="KBS Longbow"==
The "KBS Longbow" is a fictional high-powered bolt-action sniper rifle resembling a [[Remington MSR]]. Oddly enough, rather than having a traditional bolt handle, the entire pistol grip is used as a bolt handle pivoting to the right. It is chambered in the fictional "15x120mm" round, as seen when cycling the weapon. The weapon is manufactured by the fictional Kendall Ballistics company, which is presumably what "KBS" stands for.

=Machine Guns=
=="Auger"==
The "Auger" is a portable minigun that was added via an update on March 2, 2017. Is is under the light machine guns class and resembles the [[M134 Minigun]], but with three barrels instead of six, and a side-mounted grip instead of a top-mounted one. It has a holographic sight and a top mounted rail, along with a 64/96 round box belt, depending on if the extended mags attachment is used or not. In Zombies it has 80 and 120 round instead. The weapon fires while the barrels are spooling up, something that should not happen as the electric motor that powers the rotary barrels should make them barrels rotate full speed after a short delay. It also has no visible power source, although future technology may have advanced to the point where the necessary power source can be placed on the weapon, rather then being a separate piece of equipment like on current miniguns The rate of fire is much lower than the real 6,000 RPM of the M134, which makes sense, as lower firerates are more controllable for a soldier using a minigun as a handheld weapon.

The "Fury" variant grants the player akimbo miniguns, which is as daft as it sounds. The "Primed" and "Pumpkin Pummeler" grant the weapon the ability to immediatly fire at full speed, removing the need to spool the barrels, but the firerate is reduced.

[[File:CoDIW-Auger.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Auger" in the weapon selection menu. It doesn't look terribly suitable for boring holes into wood or dirt, but it certainly seems helpful for putting them in enemies.]]

=Shotguns=
=="DCM-8"==
The "DCM-8" (presumably pronounced "Decimate") is a fully-automatic energy shotgun that somewhat resembles the Monolith Arms P-12 prototype, a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun that fed from a box magazine very similar to that of the [[FN P90]]. The weapon in-game also has two cutlass-style pistol grips similar to that of the [[Heckler & Koch XM25]].

==Franchi SPAS-12==
The [[SPAS-12]] appears in game as the "S-Ravage" (referencing well-known COD personality Sandy Ravage) and the "Rack-9", with the latter having a slightly shortened barrel, no stock, a strange pump handle and heat shield, and a shell-holder. Both are operated exclusively in pump-action. Oddly, a shell is ejected at the start of a reload, despite the pump not being worked and the ejection port not opening.

The "Smoothbore" variant of the "Rack-9" has a fixed stock and fires slug rounds rather than regular buckshot.

[[File:CoDIW-Rack9-Smoothbore.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Smoothbore" variant in the loadout menu.]]

=="M.2187"==
The "M.2187" is a futuristic version of the [[Winchester Model 1887]], sawn-off like [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2#Winchester Model 1887|in]] [[Call of Duty: Black Ops#Winchester Model 1887|previous]] [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3#Winchester 1887|games]]. Notably, rather than reloading through the action, the M.2187 reloads by replacing its magazine tubes entirely. It is fitted with a heat shield, side rails with covers and a futuristic sight with hologram reticle. When dual wielded, the player character spin-cocks the weapons like in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]], despite the lever loops being too small to facilitate such a move.
[[File:M1887 Airsoft.jpg|thumb|none|450px|'''Airsoft''' replica Model 1887 with sawn-off stock, barrel, and cutaway trigger guard, as seen in ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'' - (fake) 10 gauge.]]
[[File:CoDIW-M2187.jpg|thumb|none|600px|This is presumably what would happen [[Terminator 2: Judgement Day#Winchester 1887|if the T-800 could bring weapons back in time with him.]]]]

==="Salvo"===
The "Salvo" is a three-barreled variant of the M.2187. The receiver and lever returns to a less futuristic form closer to the original [[Winchester Model 1887]], the pistol grip is switched out for a flintlock-styled grip made out of what's apparently ivory, two additional barrels are added, and the M.2187's detachable magazine is retained. The weapon is engraved throughout its barrel and receiver. The barrels and the pistol grip are apparently inspired by a 19th century four-barreled flintlock pistol of possible Indian or Ottoman origin which was auctioned by Sotheby's in 2012.

The lever action is also shown to rotate the barrels and extract spent shells after each shot. As the shotgun was meant to be used with the "Tri-barrel" attachment which allows it to fire its three barrels simultaneously, the lever action extracts three spent shells after each shot and chambers three fresh shells. In an apparent goof, these animations are also reused on the basic single shot mode resulting in extracting/chambering three shells after only one shell having been fired. However, when used in dual wield mode, it operates as a proper M1887 ejecting only one spent shell without rotating the barrels at all. In reality, this kind of antique multi-barreled weapons were usually hand-rotated.

=="Reaver"==
The "Reaver" is a fictional semi-automatic shotgun heavily resembling the [[Kel-Tec KSG]], with a 10-round helical magazine similar in appearance to the [[SRM Arms 1200 Series Shotguns|SRM Arms M1212]]'s quad-tube system.

=Launchers=
==FN 40GL==
The underbarrel [[FN 40GL]] returns from ''Call of Duty: Ghosts''. It still has no trigger, and this time it is solely integrated to the Beretta ARX-160.
[[File:Mk13.jpg|thumb|none|350px|FN 40GL / Mk 13 Mod 0 - 40x46mm]]

[[File:CODIWGLX.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the FN Mk 13 at the sushi bar that replaced Burgertown in the Terminal remake.]]

=="Howitzer"==
The "Howitzer" grenade launcher bears a striking resemblance to the [[China Lake Launcher]], with a similar silhouette, the same pump-action cycling method and the same 3-round capacity. The ladder sight lacks the front sight, instead the ladder sight acts as a housing for a holographic optic, and it is angled at 45 degrees. A Magpul M4-esque stock is seen on the weapon.
[[File:China Lake.jpg|thumb|none|450px|China Lake Launcher - 40x46mm]]

=="Spartan SA3"==
The "Spartan SA3" is a fictional rocket launcher resembling the [[Carl Gustav M3]]. The weapon in-game is muzzle-loaded, unlike the actual Gustav that has a breech-loading casing system.
[[File:CarlGustavM3.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Carl Gustav M3 - 84x246mm R]]

=Grenades=
==Mk 2 hand grenade==
The "Blitzkrieg" variant of the MP28 is fitted with a flamethrower-looking device that appears to be a pneumatic launcher, which mounts an M1 rifle grenade adapter and allows it to fire a [[Mk 2 hand grenade]]. an Mk 2 hand grenade is also seen in the "Sunset" calling card.

==M4A1==
The [[M4A1]] configuration from ''[[Modern Warfare 2]]'' is seen in "The Gulag" and "The Only Easy Day..." calling cards. A more generic M4A1 resembling the NV4 build is seen in the "Killer Tunes" calling card.

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

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

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

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

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

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

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

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

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

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

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

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

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

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

[[File:Mw22 m16 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Combine the M16, the "11.5 Carbine Shroud" and telescopic stock and you got yourself a Mk18 Mod 0.]]

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

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

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

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

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

===Heckler & Koch HK11===
Equipping the “Romeo FT 16" Barrel” or “15.9" Lachmann Rapp Barrel” makes for a [[Heckler & Koch HK11]] mockup.

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

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

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

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

==Honey Badger / SIG-Sauer MCX hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (with the “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

[[File:MW22_M4_Flatline_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10 round magazines.
[[File:MW22 FTAC RECON.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The .458 carbine in the loadout screen. The auto sear pin is not present, despite other select fire AR-15 variants correctly featuring this detail.]]

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

==Steyr AUG A3==
The [[Steyr AUG A3]] appears as the "STB 556".
[[File:SteyrAUGA3.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Steyr AUG A3 with optics removed and 16-inch barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

=Sniper Rifles=
==Accuracy International AW50==
The [[Accuracy International AW50]] appears as the "Victus XMR"; it is available in Season 1 under the Imperatorium platform. It is worth noting that the AW50 was planned for the original ''[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare|Modern Warfare]]'' game, but only its code and firing sound (which sounds similar to the M82A1 in that game) are left as the weapon was scrapped, and it wasn't added to the ''Call of Duty'' series proper until ''MWII''.
[[File:AW50 (Latest Version).jpg|thumb|none|450px|Accuracy International AW50 (latest version with fluted barrel and redesigned muzzle brake) - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MW22 AW50.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AW50 in the loadout screen. The lower end of the thumbhole stock lacks the cutout to fold, despite the hinge on the upper half.]]

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

[[File:MRAD MWII reload2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Magazine inserted. Note that the in-universe manufacturer is "Cronen", the optics manufacturer from MW19.]]

==Gepard GM6 Lynx==
The [[Gepard GM6 Lynx]] appears as the "Signal 50". It can be given its correct stock pad with the "FSS Echo Stock" attachment. A GM6 can be found atop the prison wall at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.
[[File:GepardM6.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Gepard M6 Lynx - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MW22 LYNX.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lynx in the loadout screen.]]

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.
[[File:HKSR9TC.jpg|thumb|none|450px|H&K SR9(TC) rifle with tropical forearm and bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SR9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SR9 in the loadout screen.]]

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.
[[File:MW22 SPR 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "SA-B 50" in the loadout screen.]]
[[File:MWII-M24-1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Ghost is seen with the "SA-B 50" in the reveal trailer.]]

==Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle==
The [[Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle]] is available as the "SP-X 80".
[[File:XM2010.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle with AAC Titan sound suppressor and Harris bipod - .300 Winchester Magnum]]
[[File:MW2 ESR.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M2010 in the loadout screen.]]

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

An unusable Minigun with a slotted flash hider can be found inside a building in the campaign mission "Kill or Capture".
[[File:Minigun.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Dillon Aero M134 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:M134D.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Dillon Aero M134D with slotted flash hider - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG.
[[File:Ares-16 AMG.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Ares-16 AMG/FightLite MCR - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

[[File:MCR MWII reload4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|...then closing the dust cover forcefully. Reloading from empty involves the same, with the addition of the player character racking the charging handle after replacing the belt.]]

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

In the campaign, it's correctly used by the Mexican Army.
[[File:HK21MachineGun.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Heckler & Koch HK21 - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

[[File:Mw22 hk21 (10).jpg|none|600px|thumb|...and sadly doesn't slap the charging handle with much energy anymore.]]

===Vollmer HK51-B===
A [[Vollmer HK51-B]] lookalike can be built with the short “10.6" Lachstrike Barrel.”
[[file:HK51-b.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Vollmer HK51-B without ammunition belt - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MWII HK51-B (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The shorty HK51 with the 100-round belt box and standard style stock.]]

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

[[File:Negev MWII reload3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sliding in the fresh belt of ammo.]]

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants.
[[File:AES 10B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Century Arms AES 10B - 7.62x39mm. This is a US import version of the Romanian PM md. 64]]
[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

==SIG-Sauer MG 338==
The [[SIG-Sauer MG 338]]'s 2020 prototype returns from ''Modern Warfare'', still named the "RAAL MG" (which stands for Reconnaissance Auxiliary Assault Lightweight Machine Gun). It uses essentially the same model from the previous game complete with the SIG-Sauer LMG style stock and the A2 grip.
[[File:SIG Sauer MG 338.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SIG-Sauer MG 338 (2020 prototype) - .338 Norma Magnum]]

[[File:MW22 MG338.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MG 338 in the loadout screen. It is the ''Modern Warfare'' model recycled with the only rework being a white body/black elements and the markings of the fictional manufacturer "EXPEDITE".]]

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features). It can also equip a fictional 100 round PMAG as well as the 42 round HBAR magazine and 30 round standard AUG magazine.
[[File:Hbar.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Steyr AUG HBAR-T - 5.56x45mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 AUG HBAR.jpg|none|thumb|600px|The AUG HBAR-T in the loadout screen.]]

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

[[File:MWII M4 CG (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Carl Gustaf, as seen in the launcher camo customization tab.]]

==FGM-148 Javelin==
The stylized [[FGM-148 Javelin]] returns as the "JOKR".
[[File:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FGM-148 Javelin Block 0 with original M98A1 CLU and original BCU - 127mm]]
[[File:MWII FGM-148 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Right side view of the Javelin system.]]

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR variants, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the Gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]
[[File:MWII FN40GL (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-L/FN40GL combo in Gunsmith.]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]
[[File:MWII GP-25 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Closeup of the GP-25 underneath an AKMS mockup.]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]
[[File:MWII M203 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The LMT M203 attached to the M16, which gives it the classic heat shields.]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".
[[File:XM203.jpg|thumb|none|350px|'''Airsoft''' Madbull XM203 - (fake) 40x46mm]]

[[File:MWII XM203 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Fire Drake" launcher on an AUG A3-CQC style build.]]

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.

The AV-140 MSGL is given to Garrick in "Violence and Timing," and some MSGLs can be found in the watchtower at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.
[[File:AV-140 MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Milkor AV-140 MSGL - 40x46mm]]
[[File:MWII Gaz MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Sweet heat!"'' Gaz receiving a Milkor MSGL given to him by Price during the Al-Qatala convoy chase in Al-Mazrah.]]

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

[[File:MWII RPG-7 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the RPG-7.]]

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.
[[File:9K333 Verba.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-25 (9K333 Verba) - 72mm]]

[[File:MWII SA-25 (0).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Previewing the 9K333 launcher.]]

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".
[[File:Model 7290.jpg|thumb|none|140px|Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

=Mounted Weapons=
==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.
[[File:BrowningM2 plain.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MWII M2HB (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the previous game, the character runs the Browning's action when first manning it, which is the correct military procedure.]]

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed [[M197 Vulcan]] turret.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

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

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s.
[[File:Hughes-M230-Chain-Gun4.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Hughes/Alliant Techsystems M230 chain gun - 30x113mm B]]

[[File:MWII AH-64 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AH-64 now apparently with both airframes' M230 autocannons - though only the one in the actual correct mounting position is actually used.]]

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.
[[File:RLII.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Kimber Custom TLE/RL II - .45 ACP]]
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:1911 mw22.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The 1911 in the cartel member's belt.]]

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

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Ordnance Weapon Platform (M14-based rifles)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

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

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

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

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

===SIG-Sauer P220 Carry===
Using the "Matuzek Venom" barrel on the P220 will turn it into a P220 Carry, although with a bit of a stylized slide.

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as an apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

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

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

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

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

Equipping the "Kastovia 406" barrel turns the weapon into an [[AK-74M]].

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

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

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

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

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

===Mk 18 Mod 1===
Fitting the M16 with the "11.5 T-H4 Barrel" and any telescoping stock will create a Mk 18 Mod 1.
[[File:Mk18Mod1SOPMOD.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 18 Mod 1 with Crane stock, KAC back-up iron sights, EOTech XPS3, AN/PEQ-15 ATPIAL, vertical foregrip, and dual pressure activation switch - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

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

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

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

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story.

[[File:MW22 SCAR 20.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SSR lookalike in the loadout screen. Note the fictionalized safe/semi-auto only fire selector.]]

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

===Heckler & Koch HK11===

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

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

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

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

==Honey Badger / SIG-Sauer MCX hybrid==
A [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]]-based carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid; it is a variant of the "Bruen Ops" family and uses the same style of [[SIG-Sauer MCX]] bolt, using a bufferless upper/lower system (the upper also features the MCX style of charging handle port). In addition, the lower receiver has elements of the early AAC Honey Badger, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard resemble the current Q model.

It is integrally suppressed by default, and has three non-suppressed barrel options. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (with the “10" SA Phoenix” barrel), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It is available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

[[File:MW22_M4_Flatline_2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Other side. By default, the "Flatline" uses the pseudo-M16A3 handguard instead of the carbine-length VLTOR CASV-based handguard on the original weapon. The blueprint also features a stylized Steiner DBAL ("Schlager PEQ Box IV" in-game) laser module, in which, unlike the pair of futurized AN/PEQ-2 lasers on the NV4, they do work.]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10 round magazines.
[[File:MW22 FTAC RECON.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The .458 carbine in the loadout screen. The auto sear pin is not present, despite other select fire AR-15 variants correctly featuring this detail.]]

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M14EBR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR with a Harris bipod and RIS foregrip - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

In the final game, Soap is holding a Vector, likely for consistency as the Mk 14 transforms to the Vector after the cinematic during the pre-release gameplay.]]

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

==Steyr AUG A3==
The [[Steyr AUG A3]] appears as the "STB 556".
[[File:SteyrAUGA3.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Steyr AUG A3 with optics removed and 16-inch barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

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

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

==Gepard GM6 Lynx==
The [[Gepard GM6 Lynx]] appears as the "Signal 50". It can be given its correct stock pad with the "FSS Echo Stock" attachment. A GM6 can be found atop the prison wall at the end of the "Prison Break" mission.
[[File:GepardM6.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Gepard M6 Lynx - .50 BMG]]

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.
[[File:HKSR9TC.jpg|thumb|none|450px|H&K SR9(TC) rifle with tropical forearm and bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SR9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SR9 in the loadout screen.]]

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare'' combined with the buttstock of MW's "XRK SP-TAC 208 Ultimate" chassis. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.
[[File:MW22 SPR 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "SA-B 50" in the loadout screen.]]

==Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle==
The [[Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle]] is available as the "SP-X 80".

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG.

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

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

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

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside. The RPK only fires in full-auto in-game; the selector lever cannot be set to semi-auto unlike the other AK variants.

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features).

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR variants, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the Gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.

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

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

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

==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

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

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

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

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

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision. It was released on November 5th, 2021 for Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

Most of the post-release weapons added to the game are anachronistic to ''Vanguard'''s base WWII setting, though its Warzone live-service story ventures into the 1960s.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customization, this time however, the mod slots have been increased from 5 in previous games to 10, allowing more attachments to be equipped on the weapon on a single time (but with attachments only serving a minor benefit compared to previous titles). Magazines/Calibers and ammunition type can be changed individually compared to the earlier games, instead of restricting the caliber to its own magazine. Weapon perks are expanded under two separate modifications, weapon proficiencies and weapon kits. As with ''BOCW'', attachments once again feature poor attachment descriptions, inaccuracies, anachronisms and functions that would simply not work that way in real life.

Caliber conversions return from ''Modern Warfare'' and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds. Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

It is worth noting that prior to Season 3 of the game, almost all "fast/speed mag" attachments decrease magazine capacity, it was eventually changed after the update as fast magazines now hold the same rounds as with the base gun. While it corrected some weapons that used to hold too low of a capacity compared to the model, it made others incorrect as a result. Machine gun "fast mags" that have damage benefits are not changed.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 8 round speed mag (which used to hold 5 rounds before Season 3 began) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples. While 9mm conversions (and clones) of the M1911/M1911A1 exist after WWII, a .30 Russian Short (7.62x39mm) conversion would simply be absurd.

Fired casings have struck primers, seen if you look at an ejected case on the ground.

==Dumonthier Cutlass Revolver==
A Dumonthier Cutlass Revolver was added with Season 5 as the "Valois Revolver", chambered in .45 ACP as a stand-in for 11mm Pinfire. It is a combination based on a [https://www.aaawt.com/html/firearms/f846.html handgun] sold by Antique Associates at West Townsend and another [https://twitter.com/doctorow/status/1356374594957967361 example] auctioned by Rock Island Auction. It does not come nor support with any attachments (beyond its functional, pre-attached bayonet) or even weapon perks (as a result, it cannot be dual-wielded unlike every other handgun). The use of a revolver from the 1900s during WWII or post-WWII would be obviously unlikely.

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". While it was replaced by the [[Walther P38]] in 1938, Lugers saw widespread usage on many fronts, including a production run of guns made by Mauser in 1942. In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. The front sights are currently misaligned. The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm 12 Round Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP 8 Round Mags" or ".45 ACP 12 Round Mags" (the latter is also a ''Trommelmagazin'', but fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, which would prevent it from feeding into the chamber), however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trial Lugers had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

The Luger also appears in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

It's also not entirely clear what the suppressor is actually attached to, given that a Luger's barrel ends more or less exactly where the in-game suppressor starts, with no room for threading.]]

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
As in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]'', a hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols appears, listed under the generic moniker of "Machine Pistol". It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip (despite not being chambered in 9mm by default). It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) per Activision's new tendencies to avoid any real equipment names.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name in the Gunsmith instead). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the "RATT", presumably taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights. The TT pistol in-game can accept .45 ACP 12-round magazines, a caliber that the TT pistol (or its copies) cannot chamber.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic for the majority of the maps. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 9 (6 prior to Season 3) and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.

[[File:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎|thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in ''Vanguard'', simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition (anachronistic for the WWII campaign, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war). It can also be rechambered in 9mm and ".30 Russian Short" (7.62x39mm). It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change (with the hammer magically cocking itself without the user thumbing it back) and makes no difference to the weapon's performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is impossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

=Submachine Guns=
==Armaguerra OG-43==
The [[Armaguerra OG-43]] was added in Season 2, as the "Armaguerra 43". While not anachronistic, the use of the OG-43 is very unlikely, given the small number of prototypes existed in real life, and it's exclusively chambered in 9mm, not 7.62x39mm or even 7.92×33mm Kurz ("8mm Kurz" in-game) intermediate rifle calibers.

[[File:Og43.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Armaguerra OG-43 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:Codvanog43.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Image of the in-game OG-43.]]

==BSA Welgun==
The [[Welgun|BSA Welgun]] was added in Season 1. It is erroneously shown with a stamped wire charging handle on the right side of the bolt; the real weapon lacked a charging handle (to make construction simpler, and reduce the weapon's width), the user instead simply grabbing the bolt itself and racking it somewhat like a pistol slide (hence why the bolt is serrated and exposed on both sides of the receiver). The magazine well's markings also appear to come from the [[M3 Grease Gun]], reading "SUB-MACH.GUN" and "CAL .4'''6''' M3"; one of the magazine options (a 48-rounder in 7.62x25mm Tokarev) even appears to be an M3's magazine. The other options include two .45 ACP magazines (a 20-rounder that appears to be an [[M1 Carbine]] magazine, which is both too small for 20 rounds of .45 and too long front-to-back to actually fit in the magazine well - bizarrely, this length appears to be filled completely with some sort of spitzer-pointed rifle cartridge that definitely isn't .45 ACP, and a 48-rounder that has an oversized ''Trommelmagazin 08'' attached to a long feed tower, with an inexplicable backwards slant), and a 64-round 9mm magazine (similar to the .45 drum, but with two drums joined together similarly to an [[MG15]] drum). It also fires considerably faster in-game than in reality, with the real weapon clocking in at about 500 RPM.

Bizarrely, several of the weapon's attachments come from different submachine guns entirely (and anachronistic ones at that); the "120mm Gawain Short" barrel and "SA 43 Folding"/"SA 43M Pack" stocks appear to be taken from the [[Carl Gustav M/45]], while the "Gawain Skeletal" stock and "320mm SA Shrouded" and "300mm Wilkie Custom" barrels are from production Sterling variants (the former barrel being from a [[Sterling L2A3]], and the latter being a slightly shorter version of an [[Sterling#Sterling Mk.5 / L34A1|L34A1]]'s).

==Carl Gustaf m/45==
A [[Carl Gustaf m/45]] with a shortened receiver and stock was added during Season 3 as the "H4 Blixen". .45 ACP and 7.62x25mm Tokarev chamberings do not exist for the m/45 or its copies.

==Franchi LF-57==
The [[Franchi LF-57]] was added in Season 4 as the "Marco 5". It can be dual-wielded. It is anachronistic to the original World War II setting (being developed in 1956), though most of the seasonal weapons added to the game are moreso set in the Warzone live service story that goes into the 1960s.
[[File:Franchi lf57-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Franchi LF-57 - 9x19mm]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears as the "M1928", fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons (but is possible on actual M1928 Thompsons). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds, which do exist but never saw adoption in WWII. The initial draw animation involves the player character locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire). In the beta, a conversion to .30-06 was available, based on [[:File:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of the real prototype. At the time of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, which gives the gun 30 round box magazines. This however was incorrectly changed to 50 rounds (as with the drum magazine) after the Season 3 update, for the usual balance changes. Interestingly, while the Cutts compensator is available in game, it is currently not available on the Thompson. Other customization options include the ability to remove the stock, the iconic forward pistol grip, and the M1928 Thompson iron sights, both flipped up and down as different attachments.

In a December 2021 update, the Warzone incarnation of the weapon was bizarrely renamed to "M1912", despite the first Thompson prototype only appearing in 1917 and the M1A1 appearing in the later years of WWII. The name was eventually reverted to "M1928" in a May 2022 update.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, somehow holding 64 rounds. It can also be equipped with 24-round (which holds 32 rounds after the Season 3 update) "fast mags", or rechambered in 7.62x25mm Tokarev or 7.92x33mm Kurz.

===MP41===
The "VDD 34M" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, effectively turning the weapon into the [[MP41]] (though it retains the MP40's underbarrel resting plate).

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen Gun==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right. One of the stock attachments gives the gun an Owen MKII stock.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization. The early 35-round box magazine is inaccurately featured as the "7.62mm Gorenko 71 Round Mags" and the later 35-round box magazine is available as the ".30 Russian Short 35 Round Mags" and rather inaccurately as the "8mm Nambu 71 Round Mags". There is also a fictional shortened late 35 rounder as the "7.62mm Gorenko 25 Round Mags".

===PPS-43===
The "Zac 280mm Light" barrel and "Zac Folding" stock turn the genuine PPSh-41 into an approximation of a [[PPS-43]].

===K-50M===
The "Empress 140mm Rapid" barrel and the "Ovalevskaya Skeletal" stock turn the PPSh-41 into an anachronistic [[K-50M]].

[[File:CoDVanguard-PPShK-K50M1.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|]]

==Sa 25==
The [[Sa 25]] was added with Season 5 as the "RA 225". Curiously, the game files refer to it as "sm_salpha26", even though it has the Sa 25's vertical pistol grip and 9x19mm default chambering. While a 7.62x25mm rechambering for the Sa submachine gun series (specifically for the Sa 24/26) exists, a .45 ACP conversion isn't.
[[File:Sa 25.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sa 25 - 9x19mm]]

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game with the top of the rear sight chopped off. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. While .45 ACP conversions of the Sten available in-game are not available outside of heavily modifying or rebuilding the weapon outright, 7.62x25mm chamberings made by the Chinese do exist.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.

[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however, the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's Pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, the magazine is inserted the wrong way round and it is stated to be an "8mm Kurz" (7.92x33mm) conversion, a caliber much too large for the ''Trommelmagazin 08''. For whatever reason, a slightly shorter [[AKS-74]] stock appears as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. issued combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese.

A fictional 5-round (3 rounds before Season 3) detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would require an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). Other modifications change the caliber of the shotgun to 12 gauge - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge. A completely fictional 7 shell extended cylinder is also an option, although it doesn't rotate, which is a problem for a revolving shotgun. It can also use birdshot of an unidentified (presumably 16 gauge) caliber.

The ejector rod is still used at the start of a reload. The right hand is used when non-empty; the empty reload is similar to ''WWII'''s Toggle-Action empty reload with a tacticool mag swap.]]

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically (for most maps) has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It appears to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and its "sh_lindia98" game file name (''Vanguard'', like other recent CoD games, uses a naming scheme for weapon filenames consisting of two letters, the second represented using the NATO phonetic alphabet, so for example the MP-40 is named "sm_mpapa40" and the M1 Garand is the "mr_m1golf").

Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer (it is the only non-pistol that can be dual-wielded) and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way. Shells auto eject and hammers recock themselves when reloading akimbo, and this all happens ''faster'' than the regular reload, which is preposterous.

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. The proper "Trench Gun" barrel can be equipped via the Gunsmith, named the "Framble No. 3". In the initial release, the hammer was bugged and appeared in both the cocked and uncocked positions after firing and during the empty reload; this was later fixed.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles consist of fully-automatic rifles (including LMGs that the game treats as rifles like the BAR and Charlton), as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles fitted with scopes by default.

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99", though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. However, the proper Type 99 barrel and rear iron sight are available attachments in the Gunsmith. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The weapon can be modified to use the 7.7x58mm ammunition of the real [[Arisaka Type 99|Type 99]], albeit in a detachable magazine; this is done with the "8mm Klauser mags" attachment, even though this name is used for 7.92x57mm Mauser attachments on other weapons. The rifle can also weirdly be converted to use the 9x22mmR Japanese cartridge in an [[MG13]] magazine containing only 8 rounds; for some reason, the relevant attachment has a completely different name ("5.6mm", which is normally used for .22 LR attachments of the game). The "fast mags" attachment adds a Gew.43 or SMLE style magazine (which used to contain an absurdly small 3 rounds). A completely fictional 20-round drum magazine is also available.

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments. It is prominently and inaccurately used by the Afrika Korps in the African theater missions, probably representing Italian involvement there, however, in reality, it was never adopted for service.

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'', again as the "Automaton", a literal translation of its Russian name. It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'' (roughly double the ROF of the actual rifle), and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional 75-round double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as an attachment option, as well as conversions to .22 LR and 7.62x54mmR (the former in a magazine that looks like a 10-round one but oddly retaining the standard 25-round capacity, and the latter in a fictional 50-round magazine). It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources). Another barrel mod makes the gun fire in five-round bursts.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000 Tactical]], of all things, was added during Season 5 as the "BP50". The (bullpup!) rifle has a "no stock" attachment that literally chops the rear end of the gun off, making it all kinds of mechanically impossible, on top of the obvious anachronism issue (it was developed in the late 1990s, long after World War II and the live service Warzone events that go until the 1960s). In addition to this, its unique ejection system is not depicted in game, as the weapon eject cases out right and upward instead of right and forward and will always eject rounds regardless of how many casings there are in the ejection tube as the gun fires; making the gun not ambidextrous-friendly (like the real rifle) as a result.

In-game, it can be rechambered with the nonsensical "5.6mm", 7.62x39mm, and somehow 7.62x54mmR, all of which the real life F2000 cannot fire.

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas, in reality, it is straight. The "fast mag" Gunsmith option fixes this by replacing it with a proper magazine (prior to the Season 3, this was down-loaded to 8 rounds). A 20 extended magazine option is also available, based off of limited issue prototypes made for the weapon, but never widely issued.

The "Wyvern 570mm Full Auto" barrel attachment for the Gewehr 43 converts it to fire in full-auto, which wouldn't be a wise idea since it can easily empty the magazine in an instant and produce immense recoil.

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII''. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumor based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

A double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment, reusing the model from the [[Grossfuss Sturmgewehr]]'s extended magazine in ''WWII''.

==Hyde 1944 Carbine==
The [[Hyde 1944 Carbine]] was added in Season 1 as the "Cooper Carbine". The game is unclear on what the Hyde's caliber is; by default the HUD claims it uses 7.92x33mm Kurz, but it also says this when using the magazine attachments that rechamber it in 9mm and .45 ACP - with the ".30 Carbine" attachment (the Hyde's actual caliber, and which the game claims as being larger than the default) the HUD claims it is chambered in 7.92x57mm. All the magazines are sized (front-to-back, at least) for .30 Carbine, and the weapon ejects bottlenecked rifle casings that don't match any of these.

The "22" Cooper Custom" barrel appears to be taken from an [[M1 Carbine]], handguard and all; it is also mirrored, since the M1's now-functionless stub of an operating rod is on the left side. The "Cooper 45RS" and "Cooper Custom Padded" stocks are anachronistic wooden [[Heckler & Koch G3]] stocks, while the "Cooper 45W" stock is from a Mark 2 [[Bren]] (also mirrored, since what's left of the Bren's charging handle guide and sling swivel are on the left side); the "Ragdoll G45 Skeletal" and "Removed Stock" options are also of note, since (aside from the former being a literal aluminum crutch) they're mechanically impossible, due to the Hyde's recoil spring being inside the stock. Foregrips are also notably mounted on a large sheet-metal bracket attached to the front of the magazine well, rather than the handguard, seemingly so that their position will remain constant regardless of which barrel option is used.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used. The "Krausnick IS98K" iron sight attachment gives the gun a [[Gewehr 98]] ''Lange Visier'' style of rear sight.

A fictional 5-round detachable magazine (prior to Season 3, it used to hold 3 rounds) exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

==Korovin AK-45==
The [[Korovin AK-45]] was added in Season 3 as the "Nikita AVT". It can be rechambered in 7.62x54mmR, .30-06 or 6.5x50mmSR.

[[File:Korovin AK-45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Korovin AK-45 - 7.62x39mm]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips. The rear sight is chopped off, so the top half is missing. The bolt is palmed, which was not a technique taught by the British for use on this rifle.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle - instead, a fired casing is ejected instead, which is incorrect. Additionally, the clip release button (below the sight adjustment drum) is never used to release a partially-loaded clip. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drums" modifications makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (and appears to be based on the equally fictional extended magazine for ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action"). It can also be rechambered in .303 Enfield (still using en-bloc clips) or 6.5 Arisaka, using 16-round drum magazines of a slightly different design to the .30-06 ones. When a detachable magazine is equipped, a ping sound effect is still played when the weapon is empty even though obviously no clip is ejected. In Warzone all magazines have their capacity increased by four rounds.

==Mauser Selbstlader M1916==
The [[Mauser Selbstlader M1916]] was added into the game with Season 3 and appears as the "M1916". Aside from 7.92x57mm, a fictional 6.5x50mm Arisaka chambering is available.

==MBC-2==
The MBC-2, the 1952 prototype that would later become the [[VAHAN]], was added in Season 4 as the "Vargo-S".
[[File:MBC-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MBC-2 - 7.62x39mm]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed. The striker does not fly forward when the trigger is pulled.

A very anachronistic detachable magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin; this originally held 3 rounds, despite being longer than the 5-round internal magazine. A version of this magazine with a larger floorplate (holding 5 rounds of .303 British) and a larger detachable magazine (holding 20 rounds of .30-06 Springfield) are also available; the former conversion is fictional, while the latter has at least some basis in reality (with the Bannerman company having converted some surplus US-made Mosins to this caliber in the 1920s for the American commercial market), though neither saw use in combat. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one; this could conceivably explain the lower capacity in a longer magazine (as a single-stack magazine would hold fewer rounds for a given length than a double-stack one), were it not for the fact that a Mosin's magazine is already a single-stack, and couldn't really be made any narrower. Additionally, the magazine release the magazines is attached to the back of the magazine itself, rather than the magazine well; while such magazines do exist (e.g. on the [[MAS-49]]), the magazines shown in-game have no obvious way for the catch to interface with the rifle in any way.

==PTRS-41==
The [[PTRS-41]] was added in Season One under the name "Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle". It's fitted with a PEM scope by default (historically, PTRS rifles were rarely fitted with scopes, and only as a field-expedient modification for spotting, not as an actual means of aiming), and has a shortened barrel-like in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', alongside some fictional embellishments (a large cap fitted over the bottom of the magazine, and some seemingly-random pieces of sheet metal attached to the side of the trigger group and magazine, seemingly to "spruce up" the weapon's relatively flat left side). When (unrealistically) equipping it with a muzzle attachment, the device is somehow attached directly on top of the default muzzle, which would render most of them pointless since most of the propellant gases would escape out the sides of the brake before reaching the attachment (not to mention that the PTRS's extreme muzzle blast would likely destroy most of the small brakes and suppressors that can be fitted to it in-game anyway). Needless to say, this doesn't stop the suppressors from reducing its report to a kitten's sneeze in-game (though the sound report was appropriately updated in later patches).

Strangely, none of the barrel attachments bring it up to its correct length; in fact, all of its optional barrels are either substantially shorter or roughly the same length, with the longest (the "420mm Empress", which features a [[Lahti L-39]]-esque barrel shroud) only being a smidge longer than the default option. The shortest option, the "240mm ZAC Rapid", also notably features a large, round shroud seemingly referenced from some sort of integral suppressor; it doesn't actually suppress gunfire, however (instead increasing handling and fire rate at the cost of accuracy and... handling), with the weapon's "stealth" option (which reduces muzzle flash and eliminates the pop-up skull icons that killed enemies' teammates would otherwise see) being the "400mm Kovalevskaya Wrap" barrel, quite literally just a shorter version of the default barrel wrapped in cloth. Among its several fictional stock options are the "ZAC Adjustable" (a [[Degtyaryov DT]] stock, with the adjustment notches rather inadvisably placed on the top for optimum face-sawing), and the "Anastasia Type 3B Stoyat" (seemingly taken from a Mark 1 [[Boys anti-tank rifle]]). The three fictional magazine options are all supposedly in "13mm AM" (which, judging by some of the other attachment descriptions, is apparently 13.2x92mm TuF); these are 7- and 10-round magazines (simply the base magazine elongated, with correspondingly larger en-bloc clips), and a 3-round detachable magazine somehow shoved straight through the standard one, with nothing but a new magazine cover to account for completely different feed system.

==SIG Stgw 57==
A stylized [[SIG SG 510|SIG Stgw 57]] was added during Season 5 as the "Lienna 57", under the light machine guns class.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

There are several magazine modifications. The first is a 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum rechambered for 7.92x33mm Kurz (which appears to be inspired by another Activision-published title, ''[[Wolfenstein]]''). The others all rechamber the weapon - either to "7.62 Gorenko" (7.65x25mm Tokarev) or to ".30 Russian Short" (7.62x39mm). The 7.65x25mm conversion can only use 30-round magazines, which are identical to the regular StG ones except for being shorter and straight, making them far too large for pistol-caliber rounds. The 7.62x39mm conversion can use both 20-round and 30-round magazines; the latter are identical to the 7.65x25mm ones, only with tape wrapped around them, while the 20-round ones are of an identical design, but much shorter. Both are too small to fit 7.62x39mm rounds, and both should be curved rather than straight, as 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

The stock can be modified in a variety of ways; these include the option to remove it, or replace it with a "Krausnick S11S Folding" stock based on the Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44 folding stock. Both these modifications would be impossible in real life with a regular StG, as its stock contains the recoil spring. The "VDD 34S Weighted" stock is mechanically plausible, but appears to be inspired by the H&K PSG-1's stock (albeit made out of wood rather than plastic), which would be anachronistic by nearly thirty years.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings.

The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is anachronistically used in 1942 and is incorrectly depicted as being commonly used by Red Army troops at the Battle of Berlin; while the weapon existed at the time, it was only a prototype being tested in trials and was never actually adopted or issued.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short-barreled SKT40. Of interesting fact, the P/U scope in-game is labeled as the “SVT40 PU 3.5x” scope, a reference to the fact that the P/U scope was originally intended for the SVT-40 as a sniper rifle, but problems with zeroing the rifles led to the Soviets re-using the scopes and creating new mounts for the Mosin Nagant. Despite this, the gun uses the Mosin Nagant-style of scope mount instead of the original one made for the rifle.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk2==
The [[Bren Mk2]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player character also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka is an available ammo conversion, which is fictional. The magazines used to look like the ones used in the 7.92x57mm Mauser Bren guns.

Arthur Kingsley starts off with one during the final mission during the Battle of Berlin, despite holding an MP40 in the cutscene before.

===ZB vz. 26===
Equipping the "Queen's 775 Scepter" barrel, "6.5 Sakura 30 Rounds Mags", and "Oak & Shield 12B" stock gives the Bren the general appearance of a [[ZB vz. 26]], just with the later Bren rear sight.

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'', again named the "NZ-41" and classified as an assault rifle. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored and uses 10-round SMLE magazines by default, though this time they hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay (as compared to ''WWII'''s also-inaccurate 24). It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine. It can be rechambered in both 7.92x57mm Mauser and 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds; the latter's magazine model is that of a 30-round Bren magazine, which ironically would be appropriate for the default model but not the rechambered one.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47. A proper 47 round pan magazine is available in the Gunsmith, although the magazine model will not reflect the real-world magazine.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" (which unlike most "fast mag" capacity buffs after Season 3, machine guns are not affected) upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic (although given later seasons in the game that add multiplayer maps that take place after 1946, it may not be), and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player character holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

[[Image:RP46.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RP-46 - 7.62x54mm R]]

==Kg m/40 Automatic Rifle==
The [[Kg m/40 automatic rifle]] was added in Season Two, classified as an assault rifle.
[[File:Kgm40.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Kulsprutegevär m/1940 - 6.5×55mm Swedish]]
[[File:Codkgm40.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Promotional image of the Kg m/40.]]

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, and is classified as an assault rifle. The gun is select-fire in-game, but lacks the slow/fast auto settings of the real M1918A2 and is instead portrayed with a semi/full-auto selector, similarly to the original M1918 (though the full-auto mode in-game has the slow rate of fire as opposed to the M1918's fast one). The in-game model also has holes drilled into the trigger guard and a fictional box magazine in MP by default. It should be noted that in the single player, the BAR is fitted with the correct handguard and magazine model. Equipped the "8mm Klauser" magazine will give you the proper magazine model. Barrel attachments include the Colt R75A ribbed barrel and carry handle, but with the proper A2 handguard. The two curved magazine options are based off of the [[BAR#Kg m/21|Kg m/21]]'s 20-rounders and an experimental 40-round curved magazine made for AA purposes during WWI, respectively. Both are labeled as being in .50 BMG, a rather ludicrous choice - if nothing else, a .50 BMG round is over two inches longer than a .30-06 one, so a .50 BMG round wouldn't even be able to fit into the BAR's receiver without modifying it heavily enough to bring up some serious Ship of Theseus discussions.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "20 round fast mags"; as the name would imply, these hold twice as many rounds as they ought to (prior to Season 3, it used to hold 12 rounds, still too many). The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

==Marlin Model 1917==
The [[Colt 1895 Automatic Machine Gun|Marlin Model 1917]] was added in Season 2 as a fictional handheld version known as the "Whitley". As with the BAR, a fictional (and ridiculous) ".50 BMG" conversion is available as well as a conversion to .303 British (which did exist).

[[File:Codvg-marlin-gunsmith.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The base Marlin M1897 in the Gunsmith.]]

==MAS AA-52==
The [[MAS AA-52]] was added in Season 4 as the "UGM-8".
[[File:AA52.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MAS AA-52 GPMG - 7.5x54mm French]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. Originally in the beta, the gun had its flash hider removed and this can still be seen in single-player cutscenes. Upon release, however, the flash hider was added back onto the gun and won’t be replaced unless a muzzle attachment is swapped out. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, 13.2x92mm TuF. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]]. The "VDD 680mm 31M" barrel attachment makes the weapon resemble the [[Talk:MG34|Rheinmetall MG 39 Rh]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

[[File:CODV MG42 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|MG42 with drum magazine, used by a German soldier.

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to ''[[Battlefield V]]'''s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended (though the clip-based reload is only used if the number of missing rounds is a multiple of 5, likely to ensure that reloads will always top off the hopper completely. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds; fictional drum magazines are also available.
Despite being a Japanese machine gun, the Type 11 is inexplicably found in the opening mission "Phoenix", set in Germany.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the developers believe that the Vickers is some form of Gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==AN/M14 incendiary grenade==
The [[AN/M14 incendiary grenade]] is used by Kingsley to disable a naval gun in the Merville Gun Battery mission. This is a reference to the fact that the British paratroopers in the actual operation lacked sappers and proper explosives and resorted to using whatever was available such as Gammon bombs' plastic explosive for the task. It is also available in multiplayer as the "Thermite".
[[File:AN-M14 Incendiary Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|AN/M14 incendiary grenade. This is a pre-1987 example with the old color scheme (gray body with purple markings), modern examples have a red body with black markings.]]

==M18 Smoke Grenade==
The [[M18 smoke grenade]] is used by Evans to neutralize a German naval gun crew in Operation Tonga. While featuring a new and appropriate yellow model unlike the faux white one from ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it appears that the additional pseudo German version from WWII is also reused in the campaign. It is also featured in multiplayer as the "Smoke Grenade".

==M18A1 Claymore==
The [[M18A1 Claymore]] is featured as a component of the fictional trophy system which was be added with Season Three. Its appearance in WWII is heavily anachronistic as it was developed in the 50s, adopted by the US military in 1960 and saw first combat usage in 1966 during the Vietnam War.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns as the "S-Mine 44" (being generically referred to as the "Proximity Mine" in the Alpha); gameplay-wise, it is analogous to the [[M18 Claymore]] from the series' more modern entries, with an incorrect proximity fuze instead of the real mine's pressure-based fuze.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" multiplayer mode.

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is a fictional version of it that somehow fires in semi-auto and feeds from a drum magazine reminiscent of the [[AGS-17 Plamya]]'s belt box.

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945, though its in-game description stills call it a "disposable launcher".

German [[15 cm TbtsK C/36 Naval Gun]] are destroyed by the British paratroopers during the Merville Gun Battery mission. However, this is inaccurate since there were no such guns nor Regelbau M272 casemates as depicted in-game. The actual guns at Merville were old Skoda houfnice vz. 14/19.

Soviet T-34/85 medium tanks have hull-mounted [[Degtyaryov DT]] machine guns. Some of these late war tanks are seen during the Stalingrad single-player campaign. It is worth mentioning that this model is anachronistic for the Stalingrad scenario; the earlier T-34/76 would be more correct.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision. It was released on November 5th, 2021 for Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customization, this time however, the mod slots have been increased from 5 in previous games to 10, allowing more attachments to be equipped on the weapon on a single time (but with attachments only serving a minor benefit compared to previous titles). Magazines/Calibers and ammunition type can be changed individually compared to the earlier games, instead of restricting the caliber to its own magazine. Weapon perks are expanded under two separate modifications, weapon proficiencies and weapon kits. As with ''BOCW'', attachments once again feature poor attachment descriptions, inaccuracies, anachronisms and functions that would simply not work that way in real life.

Caliber conversions return from ''Modern Warfare'' and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds. Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

It is worth noting that prior to Season 3 of the game, almost all "fast/speed mag" attachments decrease magazine capacity, it was eventually changed after the update as fast magazines now hold the same rounds as with the base gun. While it corrected some weapons that used to hold too low of a capacity compared to the model, it made others incorrect as a result. Machine gun "fast mags" that have damage benefits are not changed.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 8 round speed mag (which used to hold 5 rounds before Season 3 began) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples. While 9mm conversions (and clones) of the M1911/M1911A1 exist after WWII, a .30 Russian Short (7.62x39mm) conversion would simply be absurd.

Fired casings have struck primers, seen if you look at an ejected case on the ground.

==Dumonthier Cutlass Revolver==
A Dumonthier Cutlass Revolver was added with Season 5 as the "Valois Revolver", chambered in .45 ACP as a stand-in for 11mm Pinfire. It is a combination based on a [https://www.aaawt.com/html/firearms/f846.html handgun] sold by Antique Associates at West Townsend and another [https://twitter.com/doctorow/status/1356374594957967361 example] auctioned by Rock Island Auction. It does not come nor support with any attachments (beyond its functional, pre-attached bayonet) or even weapon perks (as a result, it cannot be dual-wielded unlike every other handgun). The use of a revolver from the 1900s during WWII or post-WWII would be obviously unlikely.

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". While it was replaced by the [[Walther P38]] in 1938, Lugers saw widespread usage on many fronts, including a production run of guns made by Mauser in 1942. In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. The front sights are currently misaligned. The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm 12 Round Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP 8 Round Mags" or ".45 ACP 12 Round Mags" (the latter is also a ''Trommelmagazin'', but fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, which would prevent it from feeding into the chamber), however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trial Lugers had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

The Luger also appears in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

It's also not entirely clear what the suppressor is actually attached to, given that a Luger's barrel ends more or less exactly where the in-game suppressor starts, with no room for threading.]]

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
As in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]'', a hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols appears, listed under the generic moniker of "Machine Pistol". It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip (despite not being chambered in 9mm by default). It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) per Activision's new tendencies to avoid any real equipment names.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name in the Gunsmith instead). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] appears as the "RATT", presumably taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights. The TT pistol in-game can accept .45 ACP 12-round magazines, a caliber that the TT pistol (or its copies) cannot chamber.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic for the majority of the maps. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 9 (6 prior to Season 3) and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in ''Vanguard'', simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition (anachronistic for the WWII campaign, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war). It can also be rechambered in 9mm and ".30 Russian Short" (7.62x39mm). It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change (with the hammer magically cocking itself without the user thumbing it back) and makes no difference to the weapon's performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is impossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

=Submachine Guns=
==Armaguerra OG-43==
The [[Armaguerra OG-43]] was added in Season 2, as the "Armaguerra 43". While not anachronistic, the use of the OG-43 is very unlikely, given the small number of prototypes existed in real life, and it's exclusively chambered in 9mm, not 7.62x39mm or even 7.92×33mm Kurz ("8mm Kurz" in-game) intermediate rifle calibers.

[[File:Og43.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Armaguerra OG-43 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:Codvanog43.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Image of the in-game OG-43.]]

==BSA Welgun==
The [[Welgun|BSA Welgun]] was added in Season 1. It is erroneously shown with a stamped wire charging handle on the right side of the bolt; the real weapon lacked a charging handle (to make construction simpler, and reduce the weapon's width), the user instead simply grabbing the bolt itself and racking it somewhat like a pistol slide (hence why the bolt is serrated and exposed on both sides of the receiver). The magazine well's markings also appear to come from the [[M3 Grease Gun]], reading "SUB-MACH.GUN" and "CAL .4'''6''' M3"; one of the magazine options (a 48-rounder in 7.62x25mm Tokarev) even appears to be an M3's magazine. The other options include two .45 ACP magazines (a 20-rounder that appears to be an [[M1 Carbine]] magazine, which is both too small for 20 rounds of .45 and too long front-to-back to actually fit in the magazine well - bizarrely, this length appears to be filled completely with some sort of spitzer-pointed rifle cartridge that definitely isn't .45 ACP, and a 48-rounder that has an oversized ''Trommelmagazin 08'' attached to a long feed tower, with an inexplicable backwards slant), and a 64-round 9mm magazine (similar to the .45 drum, but with two drums joined together similarly to an [[MG15]] drum). It also fires considerably faster in-game than in reality, with the real weapon clocking in at about 500 RPM.

Bizarrely, several of the weapon's attachments come from different submachine guns entirely (and anachronistic ones at that); the "120mm Gawain Short" barrel and "SA 43 Folding"/"SA 43M Pack" stocks appear to be taken from the [[Carl Gustav M/45]], while the "Gawain Skeletal" stock and "320mm SA Shrouded" and "300mm Wilkie Custom" barrels are from production Sterling variants (the former barrel being from a [[Sterling L2A3]], and the latter being a slightly shorter version of an [[Sterling#Sterling Mk.5 / L34A1|L34A1]]'s).

==Carl Gustaf m/45==
A [[Carl Gustaf m/45]] with a shortened receiver and stock was added during Season 3 as the "H4 Blixen". .45 ACP and 7.62x25mm Tokarev chamberings do not exist for the m/45 or its copies.

==Franchi LF-57==
The [[Franchi LF-57]] was added in Season 4 as the "Marco 5". It can be dual-wielded. It is hugely anachronistic to the World War II time period, not being developed until 1956, a full decade after the war's end in 1945.
[[File:Franchi lf57-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Franchi LF-57 - 9x19mm]]

==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears as the "M1928", fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons (but is possible on actual M1928 Thompsons). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds, which do exist but never saw adoption in WWII. The initial draw animation involves the player character locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire). In the beta, a conversion to .30-06 was available, based on [[:File:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of the real prototype. At the time of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, which gives the gun 30 round box magazines. This however was incorrectly changed to 50 rounds (as with the drum magazine) after the Season 3 update, for the usual balance changes. Interestingly, while the Cutts compensator is available in game, it is currently not available on the Thompson. Other customization options include the ability to remove the stock, the iconic forward pistol grip, and the M1928 Thompson iron sights, both flipped up and down as different attachments.

In a December 2021 update, the Warzone incarnation of the weapon was bizarrely renamed to "M1912", despite the first Thompson prototype only appearing in 1917 and the M1A1 appearing in the later years of WWII. The name was eventually reverted to "M1928" in a May 2022 update.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, somehow holding 64 rounds. It can also be equipped with 24-round (which holds 32 rounds after the Season 3 update) "fast mags", or rechambered in 7.62x25mm Tokarev or 7.92x33mm Kurz.

===MP41===
The "VDD 34M" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, effectively turning the weapon into the [[MP41]] (though it retains the MP40's underbarrel resting plate).

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen Gun==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right. One of the stock attachments gives the gun an Owen MKII stock.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization. The early 35-round box magazine is inaccurately featured as the "7.62mm Gorenko 71 Round Mags" and the later 35-round box magazine is available as the ".30 Russian Short 35 Round Mags" and rather inaccurately as the "8mm Nambu 71 Round Mags". There is also a fictional shortened late 35 rounder as the "7.62mm Gorenko 25 Round Mags".

===PPS-43===
The "Zac 280mm Light" barrel and "Zac Folding" stock turn the genuine PPSh-41 into an approximation of a [[PPS-43]].

===K-50M===
The "Empress 140mm Rapid" barrel and the "Ovalevskaya Skeletal" stock turn the PPSh-41 into an anachronistic [[K-50M]].

==Sa 25==
The [[Sa 25]] was added with Season 5 as the "RA 225". Curiously, the game files refer to it as "sm_salpha26", even though it has the Sa 25's vertical pistol grip and 9x19mm default chambering. While a 7.62x25mm rechambering for the Sa submachine gun series (specifically for the Sa 24/26) exists, a .45 ACP conversion isn't.
[[File:Sa 25.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sa 25 - 9x19mm]]

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game with the top of the rear sight chopped off. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. While .45 ACP conversions of the Sten available in-game are not available outside of heavily modifying or rebuilding the weapon outright, 7.62x25mm chamberings made by the Chinese do exist.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.

[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however, the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's Pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, the magazine is inserted the wrong way round and it is stated to be an "8mm Kurz" (7.92x33mm) conversion, a caliber much too large for the ''Trommelmagazin 08''. For whatever reason, a slightly shorter [[AKS-74]] stock appears as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. issued combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese.

A fictional 5-round (3 rounds before Season 3) detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would require an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). Other modifications change the caliber of the shotgun to 12 gauge - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge. A completely fictional 7 shell extended cylinder is also an option, although it doesn't rotate, which is a problem for a revolving shotgun. It can also use birdshot of an unidentified (presumably 16 gauge) caliber.

The ejector rod is still used at the start of a reload. The right hand is used when non-empty; the empty reload is similar to ''WWII'''s Toggle-Action empty reload with a tacticool mag swap.]]

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically (for most maps) has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It appears to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and its "sh_lindia98" game file name (''Vanguard'', like other recent CoD games, uses a naming scheme for weapon filenames consisting of two letters, the second represented using the NATO phonetic alphabet, so for example the MP-40 is named "sm_mpapa40" and the M1 Garand is the "mr_m1golf").

Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer (it is the only non-pistol that can be dual-wielded) and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way. Shells auto eject and hammers recock themselves when reloading akimbo, and this all happens ''faster'' than the regular reload, which is preposterous.

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. The proper "Trench Gun" barrel can be equipped via the Gunsmith, named the "Framble No. 3". In the initial release, the hammer was bugged and appeared in both the cocked and uncocked positions after firing and during the empty reload; this was later fixed.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles consist of fully-automatic rifles (including LMGs that the game treats as rifles like the BAR and Charlton), as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action and semi-automatic rifles fitted with scopes by default.

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99", though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. However, the proper Type 99 barrel and rear iron sight are available attachments in the Gunsmith. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The weapon can be modified to use the 7.7x58mm ammunition of the real [[Arisaka Type 99|Type 99]], albeit in a detachable magazine; this is done with the "8mm Klauser mags" attachment, even though this name is used for 7.92x57mm Mauser attachments on other weapons. The rifle can also weirdly be converted to use the 9x22mmR Japanese cartridge in an [[MG13]] magazine containing only 8 rounds; for some reason, the relevant attachment has a completely different name ("5.6mm", which is normally used for .22 LR attachments of the game). The "fast mags" attachment adds a Gew.43 or SMLE style magazine (which used to contain an absurdly small 3 rounds). A completely fictional 20-round drum magazine is also available.

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments. It is prominently and inaccurately used by the Afrika Korps in the African theater missions, probably representing Italian involvement there, however, in reality, it was never adopted for service.

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'', again as the "Automaton", a literal translation of its Russian name. It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'' (roughly double the ROF of the actual rifle), and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional 75-round double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as an attachment option, as well as conversions to .22 LR and 7.62x54mmR (the former in a magazine that looks like a 10-round one but oddly retaining the standard 25-round capacity, and the latter in a fictional 50-round magazine). It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources). Another barrel mod makes the gun fire in five-round bursts.

==FN F2000 Tactical==
The [[FN F2000 Tactical]], of all things, was added during Season 5 as the "BP50". The (bullpup!) rifle has a "no stock" attachment that literally chops the rear end of the gun off, making it all kinds of mechanically impossible, on top of the obvious anachronism issue. In addition to this, its unique ejection system is not depicted in game, as the weapon eject cases out right and upward instead of right and forward and will always eject rounds regardless of how many casings there are in the ejection tube as the gun fires; making the gun not ambidextrous-friendly (like the real rifle) as a result.

In-game, it can be rechambered with the nonsensical "5.6mm", 7.62x39mm, and somehow 7.62x54mmR, all of which the real life F2000 cannot fire.

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas, in reality, it is straight. The "fast mag" Gunsmith option fixes this by replacing it with a proper magazine (prior to the Season 3, this was down-loaded to 8 rounds). A 20 extended magazine option is also available, based off of limited issue prototypes made for the weapon, but never widely issued.

The "Wyvern 570mm Full Auto" barrel attachment for the Gewehr 43 converts it to fire in full-auto, which wouldn't be a wise idea since it can easily empty the magazine in an instant and produce immense recoil.

The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII''. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumor based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

A double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment, reusing the model from the [[Grossfuss Sturmgewehr]]'s extended magazine in ''WWII''.

==Hyde 1944 Carbine==
The [[Hyde 1944 Carbine]] was added in Season 1 as the "Cooper Carbine". The game is unclear on what the Hyde's caliber is; by default the HUD claims it uses 7.92x33mm Kurz, but it also says this when using the magazine attachments that rechamber it in 9mm and .45 ACP - with the ".30 Carbine" attachment (the Hyde's actual caliber, and which the game claims as being larger than the default) the HUD claims it is chambered in 7.92x57mm. All the magazines are sized (front-to-back, at least) for .30 Carbine, and the weapon ejects bottlenecked rifle casings that don't match any of these.

The "22" Cooper Custom" barrel appears to be taken from an [[M1 Carbine]], handguard and all; it is also mirrored, since the M1's now-functionless stub of an operating rod is on the left side. The "Cooper 45RS" and "Cooper Custom Padded" stocks are anachronistic wooden [[Heckler & Koch G3]] stocks, while the "Cooper 45W" stock is from a Mark 2 [[Bren]] (also mirrored, since what's left of the Bren's charging handle guide and sling swivel are on the left side); the "Ragdoll G45 Skeletal" and "Removed Stock" options are also of note, since (aside from the former being a literal aluminum crutch) they're mechanically impossible, due to the Hyde's recoil spring being inside the stock. Foregrips are also notably mounted on a large sheet-metal bracket attached to the front of the magazine well, rather than the handguard, seemingly so that their position will remain constant regardless of which barrel option is used.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used. The "Krausnick IS98K" iron sight attachment gives the gun a [[Gewehr 98]] ''Lange Visier'' style of rear sight.

A fictional 5-round detachable magazine (prior to Season 3, it used to hold 3 rounds) exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

==Korovin AK-45==
The [[Korovin AK-45]] was added in Season 3 as the "Nikita AVT". It can be rechambered in 7.62x54mmR, .30-06 or 6.5x50mmSR.

[[File:Korovin AK-45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Korovin AK-45 - 7.62x39mm]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips. The rear sight is chopped off, so the top half is missing. The bolt is palmed, which was not a technique taught by the British for use on this rifle.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle - instead, a fired casing is ejected instead, which is incorrect. Additionally, the clip release button (below the sight adjustment drum) is never used to release a partially-loaded clip. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drums" modifications makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (and appears to be based on the equally fictional extended magazine for ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action"). It can also be rechambered in .303 Enfield (still using en-bloc clips) or 6.5 Arisaka, using 16-round drum magazines of a slightly different design to the .30-06 ones. When a detachable magazine is equipped, a ping sound effect is still played when the weapon is empty even though obviously no clip is ejected. In Warzone all magazines have their capacity increased by four rounds.

==Mauser Selbstlader M1916==
The [[Mauser Selbstlader M1916]] was added into the game with Season 3 and appears as the "M1916". Aside from 7.92x57mm, a fictional 6.5x50mm Arisaka chambering is available.

==MBC-2==
The MBC-2, the 1952 prototype that would later become the [[VAHAN]], was added in Season 4 as the "Vargo-S".
[[File:MBC-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MBC-2 - 7.62x39mm]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed. The striker does not fly forward when the trigger is pulled.

A very anachronistic detachable magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round internal magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one; this could conceivably explain the lower capacity in a longer magazine (as a single-stack magazine would hold fewer rounds for a given length than a double-stack one), were it not for the fact that a Mosin's magazine is already a single-stack, and couldn't really be made any narrower. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

[[File:CODV Mosin 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading round by round.

[[File:Vanguardnuggetstalingrad1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading while scoped in. The ''Modern Warfare'' placeholder reticle seen in the demo was changed to a proper "German #1" in the beta and for some reason was changed to an erroneous fine cross reticle in the final game.]]
[[File:CodvanguardBETAnugget3p.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A strange visual glitch spotted during beta. While the third-person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading. This could be an error due to the reload animation possibly being reused from the Kar98k in MW2019, and thus the position of the rifle body being in a slightly wrong location from the bolt and hands models.]]

==PTRS-41==
The [[PTRS-41]] was added in Season One under the name "Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle". It's fitted with a PEM scope by default (historically, PTRS rifles were rarely fitted with scopes, and only as a field-expedient modification for spotting, not as an actual means of aiming), and has a shortened barrel-like in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', alongside some fictional embellishments (a large cap fitted over the bottom of the magazine, and some seemingly-random pieces of sheet metal attached to the side of the trigger group and magazine, seemingly to "spruce up" the weapon's relatively flat left side). When (unrealistically) equipping it with a muzzle attachment, the device is somehow attached directly on top of the default muzzle, which would render most of them pointless since most of the propellant gases would escape out the sides of the brake before reaching the attachment (not to mention that the PTRS's extreme muzzle blast would likely destroy most of the small brakes and suppressors that can be fitted to it in-game anyway). Needless to say, this doesn't stop the suppressors from reducing its report to a kitten's sneeze in-game (though the sound report was appropriately updated in later patches).

Strangely, none of the barrel attachments bring it up to its correct length; in fact, all of its optional barrels are either substantially shorter or roughly the same length, with the longest (the "420mm Empress", which features a [[Lahti L-39]]-esque barrel shroud) only being a smidge longer than the default option. The shortest option, the "240mm ZAC Rapid", also notably features a large, round shroud seemingly referenced from some sort of integral suppressor; it doesn't actually suppress gunfire, however (instead increasing handling and fire rate at the cost of accuracy and... handling), with the weapon's "stealth" option (which reduces muzzle flash and eliminates the pop-up skull icons that killed enemies' teammates would otherwise see) being the "400mm Kovalevskaya Wrap" barrel, quite literally just a shorter version of the default barrel wrapped in cloth. Among its several fictional stock options are the "ZAC Adjustable" (a [[Degtyaryov DT]] stock, with the adjustment notches rather inadvisably placed on the top for optimum face-sawing), and the "Anastasia Type 3B Stoyat" (seemingly taken from a Mark 1 [[Boys anti-tank rifle]]). The three fictional magazine options are all supposedly in "13mm AM" (which, judging by some of the other attachment descriptions, is apparently 13.2x92mm TuF); these are 7- and 10-round magazines (simply the base magazine elongated, with correspondingly larger en-bloc clips), and a 3-round detachable magazine somehow shoved straight through the standard one, with nothing but a new magazine cover to account for completely different feed system.
[[File:PTRS 41.jpg|thumb|none|450px|PTRS-41 - 14.5x114mm]]

==SIG Stgw 57==
A stylized [[SIG SG 510|SIG Stgw 57]] was added during Season 5 as the "Lienna 57", under the light machine guns class.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

There are several magazine modifications. The first is a 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum rechambered for 7.92x33mm Kurz (which appears to be inspired by another Activision-published title, ''[[Wolfenstein]]''). The others all rechamber the weapon - either to "7.62 Gorenko" (7.65x25mm Tokarev) or to ".30 Russian Short" (7.62x39mm). The 7.65x25mm conversion can only use 30-round magazines, which are identical to the regular StG ones except for being shorter and straight, making them far too large for pistol-caliber rounds. The 7.62x39mm conversion can use both 20-round and 30-round magazines; the latter are identical to the 7.65x25mm ones, only with tape wrapped around them, while the 20-round ones are of an identical design, but much shorter. Both are too small to fit 7.62x39mm rounds, and both should be curved rather than straight, as 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

The stock can be modified in a variety of ways; these include the option to remove it, or replace it with a "Krausnick S11S Folding" stock based on the Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44 folding stock. Both these modifications would be impossible in real life with a regular StG, as its stock contains the recoil spring. The "VDD 34S Weighted" stock is mechanically plausible, but appears to be inspired by the H&K PSG-1's stock (albeit made out of wood rather than plastic), which would be anachronistic by nearly thirty years.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is anachronistically used in 1942 and is incorrectly depicted as being commonly used by Red Army troops at the Battle of Berlin; while the weapon existed at the time, it was only a prototype being tested in trials and was never actually adopted or issued.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short-barreled SKT40. Of interesting fact, the P/U scope in-game is labeled as the “SVT40 PU 3.5x” scope, a reference to the fact that the P/U scope was originally intended for the SVT-40 as a sniper rifle, but problems with zeroing the rifles led to the Soviets re-using the scopes and creating new mounts for the Mosin Nagant. Despite this, the gun uses the Mosin Nagant-style of scope mount instead of the original one made for the rifle.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Mk2==
The [[Bren Mk2]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player character also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka is an available ammo conversion, which is fictional. The magazines used to look like the ones used in the 7.92x57mm Mauser Bren guns.

Arthur Kingsley starts off with one during the final mission during the Battle of Berlin, despite holding an MP40 in the cutscene before.

Equipping the "Queen's 775 Scepter" barrel, "6.5 Sakura 30 Rounds Mags", and "Oak & Shield 12B" stock gives the Bren the general appearance of a [[ZB vz. 26]], just with the later Bren rear sight.

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'', again named the "NZ-41" and classified as an assault rifle. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored and uses 10-round SMLE magazines by default, though this time they hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay (as compared to ''WWII'''s also-inaccurate 24). It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine. It can be rechambered in both 7.92x57mm Mauser and 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds; the latter's magazine model is that of a 30-round Bren magazine, which ironically would be appropriate for the default model but not the rechambered one.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47. A proper 47 round pan magazine is available in the Gunsmith, although the magazine model will not reflect the real-world magazine.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" (which unlike most "fast mag" capacity buffs after Season 3, machine guns are not affected) upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic (although given later seasons in the game that add multiplayer maps that take place after 1946, it may not be), and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player character holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

==Kg m/40 Automatic Rifle==
The [[Kg m/40 automatic rifle]] was added in Season Two, classified as an assault rifle.
[[File:Kgm40.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Kulsprutegevär m/1940 - 6.5×55mm Swedish]]
[[File:Codkgm40.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Promotional image of the Kg m/40.]]

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, and is classified as an assault rifle. The gun is select-fire in-game, but lacks the slow/fast auto settings of the real M1918A2 and is instead portrayed with a semi/full-auto selector, similarly to the original M1918 (though the full-auto mode in-game has the slow rate of fire as opposed to the M1918's fast one). The in-game model also has holes drilled into the trigger guard and a fictional box magazine in MP by default. It should be noted that in the single player, the BAR is fitted with the correct handguard and magazine model. Equipped the "8mm Klauser" magazine will give you the proper magazine model. Barrel attachments include the Colt R75A ribbed barrel and carry handle, but with the proper A2 handguard. The two curved magazine options are based off of the Kg m/21 and experimental 40 round curved magazine made for AA purposes (in WWI) respectively. Both are labeled as being in ".50 BMG", a rather ludicrous choice to take the roll of the .50 Beowulf rounds from ''Modern Warfare''.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "20 round fast mags", which holds 10 rounds way too many (prior to Season 3, it used to hold 12 rounds, still too many). The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

==Marlin Model 1917==
The [[Colt 1895 Automatic Machine Gun|Marlin Model 1917]] was added in Season 2 as a fictional handheld version known as the "Whitley". As with the BAR, a fictional (and ridiculous) ".50 BMG" conversion is available as well as a conversion to .303 British (which did exist).

[[File:Codvg-marlin-gunsmith.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The base Marlin M1897 in the Gunsmith.]]

==MAS AA-52==
The [[MAS AA-52]] was added in Season 4 as the "UGM-8".
[[File:AA52.jpg|thumb|none|450px|MAS AA-52 GPMG - 7.5x54mm French]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. Originally in the beta, the gun had its flash hider removed and this can still be seen in single-player cutscenes. Upon release, however, the flash hider was added back onto the gun and won’t be replaced unless a muzzle attachment is swapped out. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, 13.2x92mm TuF. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]]. The "VDD 680mm 31M" barrel attachment makes the weapon resemble the [[Talk:MG34|Rheinmetall MG 39 Rh]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to ''[[Battlefield V]]'''s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended (though the clip-based reload is only used if the number of missing rounds is a multiple of 5, likely to ensure that reloads will always top off the hopper completely. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds; fictional drum magazines are also available.
Despite being a Japanese machine gun, the Type 11 is inexplicably found in the opening mission "Phoenix", set in Germany.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the developers believe that the Vickers is some form of Gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==AN/M14 incendiary grenade==
The [[AN/M14 incendiary grenade]] is used by Kingsley to disable a naval gun in the Merville Gun Battery mission. This is a reference to the fact that the British paratroopers in the actual operation lacked sappers and proper explosives and resorted to using whatever was available such as Gammon bombs' plastic explosive for the task. It is also available in multiplayer as the "Thermite".
[[File:AN-M14 Incendiary Grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|AN/M14 incendiary grenade. This is a pre-1987 example with the old color scheme (gray body with purple markings), modern examples have a red body with black markings.]]

==Bangalore Torpedo==

This is a reference to the fact that the British paratroopers in the actual operation lacked sappers and proper explosives and resorted to using whatever was available such as Gammon bombs' plastic explosive for the task.

==M18 Smoke Grenade==
The [[M18 smoke grenade]] is used by Evans to neutralize a German naval gun crew in Operation Tonga. While featuring a new and appropriate yellow model unlike the faux white one from ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it appears that the additional pseudo German version from WWII is also reused in the campaign. It is also featured in multiplayer as the "Smoke Grenade".

==M18A1 Claymore==
The [[M18A1 Claymore]] is featured as a component of the fictional trophy system which was be added with Season Three. Its appearance in WWII is heavily anachronistic as it was developed in the 50s, adopted by the US military in 1960 and saw first combat usage in 1966 during the Vietnam War.
[[File:M18a1 07.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M18A1 Claymore anti-personnel mine]]

==No. 69 Mk. I==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] returns from ''WWII'', once again incorrectly depicted as a stun grenade. It is also incorrectly used by the Germans in the Hamburg mission. The multiplayer characters throw it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns as the "S-Mine 44" (being generically referred to as the "Proximity Mine" in the Alpha); gameplay-wise, it is analogous to the [[M18 Claymore]] from the series' more modern entries, with an incorrect proximity fuze instead of the real mine's pressure-based fuze.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" multiplayer mode.

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is a fictional version of it that somehow fires in semi-auto and feeds from a drum magazine reminiscent of the [[AGS-17 Plamya]]'s belt box.

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945, though its in-game description stills call it a "disposable launcher".

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
The [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. Despite being a DA/SA handgun, the trigger will always remain in the single action position, even when decocked.
it feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

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

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

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

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel and a collapsible stock. Interestingly, it is shown having the option to use Dragon's Breath shells, firing and cycling them easily; Dragon's Breath shells have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds which require manual cycling.

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

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

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AAC / Q Honey Badger hybrid==
A stylized [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]] carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid, with the lower receiver based on the early AAC version, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard are based on the current Q model. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (without its integrated suppressor), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It will be available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

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

===AK-104===

[[File:Mw22 ak thing (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AK-104 in the gunsmith preview screen.]]

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

===AK-74M===

===AKS-74N===
Pairing the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel with the "Kastov-Rama" stock turns the rifle into an [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].
[[File:AKS74.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AKS-74, early version with 62 degree gas block - 5.45x39mm]]
[[File:MWII AKS-74 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AKS-74N build, with an alternate grip.]]

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50 round drum, are available as extended options.
[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the loadout screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19'''s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S. The Los Vaqueros unit uses this SCAR variant as its sniper rifle in the campaign story.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is the standard rifle for both Shadow Company operators and the Los Vaqueros unit in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

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

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK93A3===
Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

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

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

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

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

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

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.

[[File:MW22 SR9.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SR9 in the loadout screen.]]

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is a modified version of the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.

==Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle==
The [[Remington M2010 Enhanced Sniper Rifle]] is available as the "SP-X 80".

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus." The MCR is commonly used by Shadow Company as their standard LMG.
[[File:Ares-16 AMG.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Ares-16 AMG/FightLite MCR - 5.56x45mm NATO]]

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

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

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside.
[[File:AES 10B.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Century Arms AES 10B - 7.62x39mm. This is a US import version of the Romanian PM md. 64]]
[[File:MW22 RPK.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The RPK in the loadout screen. Why this gun was given its real name and the other rifles in its family were called "Kastov" is a mystery, unless the "K" stands for "Kastov" rather than "Kalashnikov".]]

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features).

[[File:MW22 AUG HBAR.jpg|none|thumb|600px|The AUG HBAR-T in the loadout screen.]]

=Launchers=
==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "Strela-P".
[[File:CarlG-M4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Carl Gustaf M4 - 84x246mm R]]

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

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR-L, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".
[[File:XM203.jpg|thumb|none|350px|'''Airsoft''' Madbull XM203 - (fake) 40x46mm]]
[[File:ISL-200.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 with ISTEC ISL-200 - 40x46mm]]

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.

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

[[File:MWII Gaz MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Sweet heat!"'' Gaz receiving a Milkor MSGL given to him by Price during the Al-Qatala convoy chase in Al-Mazrah.]]

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.
[[File:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.
[[File:9K333 Verba.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-25 (9K333 Verba) - 72mm]]
[[File:SA-14 complete.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-14 Gremlin (9K34 Strela-3) - 72mm]]

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".
[[File:Model 7290.jpg|thumb|none|140px|Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

=Mounted Weapons=
==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.
[[File:BrowningM2 plain.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MWII M2HB (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the previous game, the character runs the Browning's action when first manning it, which is the correct military procedure.]]

The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed [[M197 Vulcan]] turret.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

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

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s.

[[File:MWII AH-64 (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The AH-64 now apparently with both airframes' M230 autocannons - though only the one in the actual correct mounting position is actually used.]]

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.
[[File:RLII.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Kimber Custom TLE/RL II - .45 ACP]]

===STI 2011===
An unusable STI 2011 resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire". It appears to be the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
The [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. Despite being a DA/SA handgun, the trigger will always remain in the single action position, even when decocked.
it feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

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

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

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

===SIG-Sauer P220 Carry===
Using the "Matuzek Venom" barrel on the P220 will turn it into a P220 Carry, although with a bit of a stylized slide.

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1.

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

==Steyr AUG A3 9mm XS==

=Shotguns=
==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12".

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel and a collapsible stock. Interestingly, it is shown having the option to use Dragon's Breath shells, firing and cycling them easily; Dragon's Breath shells have difficulty powering a semi-automatic shotgun action as they are considered low-power rounds which require manual cycling.

==Browning Citori 725==
The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition. It is still used as apparently favored weapon by Al-Qatala in the story.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AAC / Q Honey Badger hybrid==
A stylized [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]] carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid, with the lower receiver based on the early AAC version, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard are based on the current Q model. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (without its integrated suppressor), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It will be available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

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

===AK-104===

[[File:Mw22 ak thing (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AK-104 in the gunsmith preview screen.]]

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

===AKS-74N===
Pairing the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel with the "Kastov-Rama" stock turns the rifle into an [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].
[[File:AKS74.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AKS-74, early version with 62 degree gas block - 5.45x39mm]]
[[File:MWII AKS-74 (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AKS-74N build, with an alternate grip.]]

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

It is used by the Mexican Army in addition to the G3 and "M4" rifles in-game.

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

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

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

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

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50 round drum, are available as extended options.
[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the loadout screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19'''s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is a favorite of Shadow Company operators in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

The "14.5' Tundra Pro Barrel" turns it into the LB variant.

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

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

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

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK93A3===
Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

[[File:AR-15 VLTOR CAS-V Midlength.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AR-15 with VLTOR CAS-V handguard - 5.56x45mm]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10 round magazines.
[[File:MW22 FTAC RECON.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The .458 carbine in the loadout screen. The auto sear pin is not present, despite other select fire AR-15 variants correctly featuring this detail.]]

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

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

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", 300 magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively.

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is a modified version of the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.

==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==FightLite MCR==
A tan [[Ares Shrike#Ares-16 AMG|FightLite MCR]] appears in-game as the "556 Icarus".

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

==IWI Negev NG7==
The [[IWI Negev NG7]] appears in-game as the "SAKIN MG38".

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside.

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features).

[[File:MW22 AUG HBAR.jpg|none|thumb|600px|The AUG HBAR-T in the loadout screen.]]

=Launchers=
==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "Strela-P".
[[File:CarlG-M4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Carl Gustaf M4 - 84x246mm R]]

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

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR-L, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".
[[File:XM203.jpg|thumb|none|350px|'''Airsoft''' Madbull XM203 - (fake) 40x46mm]]
[[File:ISL-200.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 with ISTEC ISL-200 - 40x46mm]]

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.

[[File:MWII Gaz MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Sweet heat!"'' Gaz receiving a Milkor MSGL given to him by Price during the Al-Qatala convoy chase in Al-Mazrah.]]

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.
[[File:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.
[[File:9K333 Verba.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-25 (9K333 Verba) - 72mm]]
[[File:SA-14 complete.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-14 Gremlin (9K34 Strela-3) - 72mm]]

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".
[[File:Model 7290.jpg|thumb|none|140px|Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

=Mounted Weapons=
==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.
[[File:BrowningM2 plain.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MWII M2HB (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the previous game, the character runs the Browning's action when first manning it, which is the correct military procedure.]]

The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed [[M197 Vulcan]] turret.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

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

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s.
[[File:Hughes-M230-Chain-Gun4.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Hughes/Alliant Techsystems M230 chain gun - 30x113mm B]]

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.

[[File:1911 mw22.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The 1911 in the cartel member's belt.]]

===STI 2011===
An unusable STI 2011 resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire". It appears to be the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[[File:Mw22 glock flux.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The G17 equipped with the Flux Brace.]]

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
The [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. Despite being a DA/SA handgun, the trigger will always remain in the single action position, even when decocked.
it feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

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

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

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

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==SIG-Sauer MPX==
A [[SIG-Sauer MPX]] Gen 2 with a stock inspired by the SIG PSB collapsible brace appears as the "BAS-P". It is Alejandro Vargas' main weapon throughout the campaign, and was added to multiplayer on Season 1.

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

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12".

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel and a collapsible stock. Interestingly, it is shown having the option to use Dragon's Breath shells, firing and cycling them with no issues; Dragon's Breath shells have difficulty cycling in a semi-automatic as they are considered low-power rounds.

The [[Over and Under Shotgun|Browning Citori 725]] returns as the "Lockwood 300", with an altered handguard and stock compared to the ''Modern Warfare'' rendition.

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AAC / Q Honey Badger hybrid==
A stylized [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]] carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid, with the lower receiver based on the early AAC version, while the right side of the upper receiver and the handguard are based on the current Q model. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (without its integrated suppressor), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It will be available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

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

===AK-104===
Equipping the "Kastovia 343" barrel turns the weapon into an [[AK-104]].
[[File:Ak104.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-104 - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:Mw22 ak thing (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AK-104 in the gunsmith preview screen.]]

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

===AK-74M===
Equipping the "Kastovia 406" barrel turns the weapon into an [[AK-74M]].
[[File:AK-74M.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-74M - 5.45x39mm]]

===AKS-74N===
Pairing the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel with the "Kastov-Rama" stock turns the rifle into an [[AKS-74|AKS-74N]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74|AK-74N]].
[[File:AKS74.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AKS-74, early version with 62 degree gas block - 5.45x39mm]]

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

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

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

It is used by the Mexican Army in addition to the G3 and "M4" rifles in-game.

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

===Mk 18 Mod 0===
The "11.5 Carbine Shroud" attachment gives it an AR carbine handguard/10.5" barrel/AR front sight, effectively turning it into a [[Mk 18 Mod 0]] when combined with one of the telescoping stock options (though it still fires in three-round bursts due to the faux M16A4 receiver).
[[File:Mk18SpecializedArmaments.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 18 Mod 0 with standard M4 handguard and 6-position stock - 5.56x45mm]]

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

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

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50 round drum, are available as extended options.
[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the loadout screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19'''s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor like the SCAR 20S.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is a favorite of Shadow Company operators in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

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

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

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

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

===Heckler & Koch HK93A3===
Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel and rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

[[File:AR-15 VLTOR CAS-V Midlength.jpg|thumb|none|400px|AR-15 with VLTOR CAS-V handguard - 5.56x45mm]]

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

Unlike the 5.56 "M4" seen above, the upper receiver lacks a forward assist, which is reflected in the inspect animation when the operator does a brass check. By default it features what looks like a 12" barrel with an A2 flash hider, a KeyMod handguard based on the BCM KMR, an A2 pistol grip and a Magpul PRS stock. It also feeds from regular black stylized .458 SOCOM PMAG 10 round magazines.
[[File:MW22 FTAC RECON.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The .458 carbine in the loadout screen. The auto sear pin is not present, despite other select fire AR-15 variants correctly featuring this detail.]]

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. While not available in the campaign, it is seen in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick and Rodolfo Parra when they are NPCs. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

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

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", 300 magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively.

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is a modified version of the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.

==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside.

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features).

=Launchers=
==Carl Gustaf M4==
The [[Carl Gustaf M4]] returns as the "Strela-P".
[[File:CarlG-M4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Carl Gustaf M4 - 84x246mm R]]

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

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR-L, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".
[[File:XM203.jpg|thumb|none|350px|'''Airsoft''' Madbull XM203 - (fake) 40x46mm]]
[[File:ISL-200.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Heckler & Koch MP5A5 with ISTEC ISL-200 - 40x46mm]]

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.
[[File:AV-140 MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Milkor AV-140 MSGL - 40x46mm]]

==RPG-7==
The [[RPG-7]] is once again featured as a standard rocket launcher in ''MWII'', under the same name. Aiming down the sights now tilt the launcher diagonally as if they are shouldering the weapon, akin to [[Far Cry 3]] and its sequels. It is mainly used by the Las Almas cartel and the Mexican army.
[[File:Rpg-7-1-.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPG-7 - 40mm]]

==SA-25==
The "PILA", an [[SA-25]] with an [[SA-14 Gremlin]]'s spherical battery coolant unit, returns from ''Modern Warfare'' with a different style of scope. It retains the ability to reload tubes, and dumbfire and lock on to ground vehicles.
[[File:9K333 Verba.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-25 (9K333 Verba) - 72mm]]
[[File:SA-14 complete.jpg|thumb|none|450px|SA-14 Gremlin (9K34 Strela-3) - 72mm]]

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".
[[File:Model 7290.jpg|thumb|none|140px|Model 7290 flashbang grenade]]

==M7 Spider==
A heavily stylized M7 Spider mine is featured as the "Cluster Mine".

=Mounted Weapons=
==Browning M2HB==
Various vehicles have turret-mounted [[Browning M2HB]]s, returning from the previous game.
[[File:BrowningM2 plain.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Browning M2HB - .50 BMG]]
[[File:MWII M2HB (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|As with the previous game, the character runs the Browning's action when first manning it, which is the correct military procedure.]]
[[File:MWII M2HB (2).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Watching some NPC characters perform a cool helo inserting from behind the MAT-V inspired MRAP's M2 turret.]]

==General Dynamics M197 Vulcan==
The stylized Harrier II appears again with a low-detailed [[M197 Vulcan]] turret.
[[File:M197Gatling.jpg|thumb|none|450px|General Dynamics M197 Vulcan - 20mm]]

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

==M230 Chain Gun==
AH-64D Apaches return as an attack helicopter in-game. They mount [[M230 Chain Gun]]s.
[[File:Hughes-M230-Chain-Gun4.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Hughes/Alliant Techsystems M230 chain gun - 30x113mm B]]

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber / Colt M1911 hybrid==
The previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". It is modeled after the "Callous" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a classic [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]]-style slide with rear vertical serrations. This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.
[[File:RLII.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Kimber Custom TLE/RL II - .45 ACP]]

[[File:1911 mw22.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The 1911 in the cartel member's belt.]]

===STI 2011===
An unusable STI 2011 resembling the [[STI Tactical|STI Tactical 5.0]] can be seen on a table during the mission "Recon by Fire". It appears to be the "Corax" blueprint from ''Modern Warfare'', which has a [[SIG-Sauer 1911]] style skeletonized trigger.

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

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

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

__TOC__ 

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

Many weapons are now classified under a "Weapon Platform" system, which groups multiple weapons (which may cover several different types) in the same real world weapon family into a single set, with individual weapons within the Weapon Platform being classified as "Receivers". Weapons under a Weapon Platform share a progression system that lets the player unlock platform-specific shared attachments.

Because of this, a number of weapons can make identical clones, allowing you to run two of the same weapons in one loadout, with only very marginally different stats (a difference of a few percent). The AK-103 and RPK can both become an [[AKM|AKMN]], and the AUG A3's LMG and assault rifle variants can be changed around to be the [[Steyr AUG A3-CQC]]. Additionally, the SR9 and HK91, as well as the M4 and 16 can be turned into each other, and the SCAR-H can be turned into the Mk20 SSR, though these all have different fire modes or calibers in game, justifying different damage, range, and accuracy stats. Why something like an AKMN built from an RPK has slightly higher accuracy than one built from an AK-103 but slightly lower damage is entirely unexplained.

The current known Weapon Platforms with multiple receivers in ''Modern Warfare II'' are the following:
* Bruen Bullpup Platform (Steyr AUG-based weapons)
* Bruen Ops Platform (MCX-based weapons, as well the Honey Badger)
* Bryson 800 Series (Mossberg-based shotguns)
* Bryson Long Range Platform (Remington 700-based weapons)
* Kastovia Platform (AK-based weapons)
* Lachmann Meer (Heckler & Koch roller-delayed weapons)
* M4 Platform (AR-based weapons)
* Tactique Verte (FN SCAR-based weapons)
* XRK (Glock pistols)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[[File:Mw22 glock flux.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The G17 equipped with the Flux Brace.]]

==Glock 18==
A stylized [[Glock 18]] appears as the "X13 Auto", a part of the XRK pistol platform, and features its fire selector on the right side of the slide instead of the left, as well as sporting a tan finish, similar to the [[Glock 19X]]. It has the same Gen 5 MOS FS setup as the "X12", even though the real Glock 18 isn't known to exist in this configuration. Other differences from the "X12" include a different grip texture and a tritium front sight. Of note, the "X12", "X13", and MW19's "X16" (Glock 21) feature the same relationship between their numbers as the real pistols (G17, G18, skip two, G21 / X12, X13, skip two, X16), which is almost certainly intentional.

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

A carbine conversion kit with an AR-15 style T-handle, resembling the [[FAB Defense KPOS Scout]], is available for the X13.

A 3D printed pistol apparently based on the in-game Glock 18 model appears in the post-credits scene.

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

==SIG-Sauer P220 Elite==
The [[SIG-Sauer P220|SIG-Sauer P220 Elite]] with a less pronounced beaver-tail, a squared magazine release and suppressor height sights (that co-witness with optics) appears as the "P890" (or "Bruen .45" during the beta). The decocker is actually used during the inspect animation and when reholstering the pistol, when drawing it the user will cock the hammer manually, so the gun always fires in single action (in third person the gun fires the first shot double-action and the following ones single-action, this cycle resets after a few seconds). A double-action only DAK trigger group is available, removing the decocking and cocking animation and adding a fire delay, reflecting the long squeeze of the DAO trigger mechanism. Despite being a DA/SA handgun, the trigger will always remain in the single action position, even when decocked.
it feeds from stainless steel 8-round magazines by default, but magazine baseplates that increase the capacity to either 10 or 12 are available.

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

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

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

===SIG-Sauer P220 Carry===
Using the "Matuzek Venom" barrel on the P220 will turn it into a P220 Carry, although with a bit of a stylized slide.

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

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

=Submachine Guns=
==AR-57==
A short-barreled [[AR-57]] appears as the "FSS Hurricane" as an SMG in the "M4 Platform". It is depicted with traditional AR-15 style charging handle at the rear, whereas the real AR-57 has a right-side charging handle. The handguard is also different, instead of a quad-rail it seems to be based on an M-LOK system. It's fitted with a Troy M7A1 PDW stock and seems to use the same SIG-inspired lower receiver as the "M4" with an A2 grip by default, options to change the stock and grip are available, as they are shared with the M4 platform.

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

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

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

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

==KRISS Vector==
The Gen I/Gen II hybrid [[KRISS Vector]] from ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'' returns as the "Fennec 45", still missing the piece that connects the pistol grip and the receiver, which is once again too small to accommodate the Super-V recoil dampening system the real Vector is known for. The in-game description notes that its use of subsonic ammo hides the death skulls that appear to the enemy team, and as it's not using any sort of "special" ammo type in-game this implies that ''all'' weapons using .45 ACP (which is inherently subsonic) will hide enemy death skulls.

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

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

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

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

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

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

==Benelli M4 Super 90==
The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears as the "Expedite 12".

The first port-loaded shell in a reload sequence will play a slower animation showing the player character palming the shell before loading it. This does not happen with the "Fast Reload" perk. Customization options include a 14" short barrel and a collapsible stock

=="Corvus Masterkey"==
The underbarrel "12-Gauge Deputy" returns from ''Modern Warfare'', now under a different name. It has a new model that appears to have a Mossberg-style trigger guard, and now it can be reloaded. The reload animation is of a similar style to the Benelli M4, first (if empty) loading a shell into the chamber and pressing the bolt release, then loading three shells into the tube.

===Serbu Super Shorty===
The "Bryson 800" can be converted into a [[Serbu Super Shorty]] via the gunsmith.

==Mossberg 590M==
A [[Mossberg 590M]]-style detachable box magazine variant with a collapsible stock and a short barrel appears as the "Bryson 890". It was apparently supposed to be a [[Vepr-12]] since it's called "mviktor" (Molot Vepr) in the game files, and it even retained the Vepr-12's magazine well and uses its correct magazines capacities as well (8, 10 and 12). It was probably going to be part of the AK platform being unlocked from the RPK as the Vepr-12 is based on it.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==AAC / Q Honey Badger hybrid==
A stylized [[AAC Honey Badger|Honey Badger]] carbine appears as the "Chimera". Befitting its name, the in-game model is a hybrid, with the lower receiver based on the early AAC version and the right side of the upper receiver based on the current Q model. It is briefly available in singleplayer during the opening mission (without its integrated suppressor), but it serves no practical use as there are no enemies to effectively combat with it. It will be available in multiplayer in Season 1 as an in-season reward.

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

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

===AK-104===
Equipping the "Kastovia 343" barrel turns the weapon into an [[AK-104]].
[[File:Ak104.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-104 - 7.62x39mm]]
[[File:Mw22 ak thing (3).jpg|thumb|none|600px|An AK-104 in the gunsmith preview screen.]]

==AK-105==
An [[AK-105]] with light tan furniture and magazines appears as the "Kastov 545". It employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even when the stock is removed, which would make this technique impossible to pull off.

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

===AK-74M===
Equipping the "Kastovia 406" barrel turns the weapon into an [[AK-74M]].
[[File:AK-74M.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AK-74M - 5.45x39mm]]

===AKS-74===
Pairing the "KAS-7 406mm" barrel with the "Kastov-Rama" stock turns the rifle into an [[AKS-74]], except that it retains the partly smooth top cover. The weapon can alternatively be fitted with the "Ivanov Wood Stock" to make it resemble the [[AK-74]].
[[File:AKS74.jpg|thumb|none|450px|AKS-74, early version with 62 degree gas block - 5.45x39mm]]

==AKS-74UN==
The [[AKS-74U]] appears as the "Kastov-74u". It is specifically the AKS-74UN variant with a side-mounted bracket for attaching optics. For the ''first'' time in the Call of Duty series, it is correctly classified as an assault rifle as opposed to an SMG. As with the aforementioned AK-105, it employs the "Iraqi reload" technique when reloading from empty, even including the impossible reloading technique without the stock.

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

The gun can be customized with ZenitCo furniture like handguards and stocks.

==FN SCAR-H==
The [[FN SCAR-H]] appears as the "TAQ-V". The default magazine is a black 20-round proprietary model; a 30-round polymer magazine inspired by the Molon Labe Industries (couldn't get a more pretentious name) offerings and a two-tone XS Products X-25 50 round drum, are available as extended options.
[[File:Scar h std.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SCAR 17.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The SCAR-H in the loadout screen. The model has undergone a stylistic redesign from ''MW19'''s "FN Scar 17," with three vent holes, shorter rails for the correct barrel block placement, and ACR-like stock. The magwell still has the AR-15 style outdent. During an early stage of the game, a typo in the gunsmith described the weapon as firing "7.26" rounds, but this has been fixed.]]

==FN SCAR 17S==
In addition to the standard SCAR-H, the [[FN SCAR 17S|SCAR 17S]] semi-auto only version appears under the marksman rifles class. It is referred to as the "TAQ-M", and is fitted with a 20" barrel, a rail extension and an [[FN SSR]]/SCAR 20S style fixed stock. It is apparently chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor.

==FN SCAR-L==
A black [[FN SCAR-L]] appears as the "TAQ-56" and it's manufactured by "Tactique Verte", the in-universe equivalent to FN Herstal, which also makes the PDSW 528, a fictionalized P90 variant. It is depicted with incorrect H&K style fire selector markings and a stylized lower receiver.

It feeds from black STANAG style 30 round magazines, but 40 round PMAGs and 60 round Surefire MAG5-60s are also available.

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

It is a favorite of Shadow Company operators in the campaign, being commonly found with various attachments.

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

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

===Heckler & Koch HK91A3===
Fitting the rifle with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock makes it resemble an HK91A3.

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

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

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

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

The rest of the bullets will appear after the animation is done. This can also be observed easily with the M4 and M16.]]

===Heckler & Koch HK93A3===
Fitting the weapon with the "Lachmann S9 Factory" stock and the full-sized "Lachmann Nova" barrel turns it into an HK93A3.

=="M4"==
A fully-automatic custom [[AR-15]]-type carbine with a 12" barrel appears as the "M4". The lower receiver is from a [[SIG-Sauer 516 Series|SIG 516]]/SIG M400 while the upper most closely resembles a Mega Arms GTR-3H. It has a Geissele SMR MK16/MK8-style hybrid handguard (likely intended to make the gun resemble a Geissele URG-I-fitted M4A1 as used by USASOC), a stylized Magpul CTR stock and a SIG charging handle. The front sight is stylized Midwest Industries flip up and the rear one is a hybrid between KAC micro rear, MaTech BUIS and base MP7 rear sight. The muzzle is KAC birdcage and the grip is A2. It feeds from stylized windowed PMAGs in spite of the previous game having a proper non-stylized model. A 40 round metal magazine that holds 45 rounds and a quadstack Surefire MAG5-60 are also available.

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

Other barrel options include the "7.5' Tempus Firebrand", the "Tempus Trench Pro", which retains the same barrel an rail length and swaps the handguard for a black KeyMod one, the "419mm EXF Barrel", a 16 inch barrel paired with an URX 3.1 inspired rail and the "11.5' T-H4 Barrel", which gives it a Daniel Defense Mk 18 rail and a 10.5 inch barrel, despite it being stated as longer.

In-game, it's stated to be manufactured by the fictional Tempus Armament.

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

=="FTac Recon"==
Another AR-15 variant, chambered in .458 SOCOM, appears as the "FTac Recon". It is classified as a battle rifle, even though the real .458 SOCOM cartridge isn't a full-powered one.

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

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

==M14==
Two [[M14]] variants appear in the game. The "SO-14" is a variant classed as a battle rifle. The base chassis of the "SO-14" appears to be based on an M14 SOCOM 16 CQB chassis but with the stock and pistol grip in the more traditional style. It is fitted with an M39 EMR-length gas block. For the first time in the series (and a rarity in most video games), the M14 is select-fire, with semi and full-auto options.

==Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle==
The [[Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR]] appears as the "EBR-14", classed as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M14EBR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Mk 14 Mod 0 EBR with a Harris bipod and RIS foregrip - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M16A3==
The [[M16A3]] (Colt Model 901) appears as the "M16". It fires in three-round bursts, meaning it is intended to pass for an [[M16A4]], but the fire selector has the Safe/Semi/Auto markings of the A3 rather than the A4's Safe/Semi/Burst; more confusingly, the markings on the magwell claim it is an M16A2 lower receiver. It is fitted with a KAC M5 railed handguard and feeds from the same stylized windowed PMAGs used with the "M4". Along with the two extended magazine options available for the "M4", the M16 can also use short 20-round GI magazines that hold 15 rounds for some reason (maybe because 20 isn't a multiple of 3 or to align it with the same magazine option seen on the HK93, which also is a 20 rounder limited to a capacity of 15).

A properly functioning M16A3-style rifle can also be achieved by modifying the "M4" mentioned above, although keeping the non-milspec upper and lower receiver.

Is incorrectly used by the Mexican Army, instead of a more correct [[FX-05 Xiuhcoatl]] or [[G3]].

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

===Mk 18 Mod 1===
Fitting the M16A3 with the "11.5 T-H4 Barrel" and any telescoping stock will create a Mk 18 Mod 1.

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

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

==SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS==
The [[SIG-Sauer MCX VIRTUS]] appears as the "M13B". It is stylized similarly to the ''Modern Warfare'' version, with one of the differences being that it has a shorter barrel, between 9 and 11.5 inches. It is seen in the campaign in the hands of Kyle "Gaz" Garrick while he is an NPC. It was added to multiplayer as part of Season 1 content.

It has 6.75" and 14.5" barrel customization options, both of them with Midwest Industries-style handguards.

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

==Barrett MRAD==
The [[Barrett MRAD]] appears as the "MCPR-300" (standing for "Multi-Caliber Precision Rifle", 300 magnum) under the MRBA weapon platform. Kyle Garrick's and Ghost's MRAD are incorrectly designated as "Victus XMR" in the campaign missions "Recon By Fire" and "Countdown" respectively.

[[File:MW22 LYNX.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lynx in the loadout screen.]]

==Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)==
The [[Heckler & Koch SR9(TC)]] appears as the "LM-S", under the marksman rifles class. It holds 10 rounds in a 5-round magazine by default.
[[File:HKSR9TC.jpg|thumb|none|450px|H&K SR9(TC) rifle with tropical forearm and bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]

==M24 SWS==
Three [[M24 SWS]] variants appear in the game as separate weapons. The first one is the "SP-R 208", chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, returning from ''Modern Warfare'', classified as a marksman rifle.
[[File:M24-2.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO]]
[[File:MW22 SPR208.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The M24 with a black stock in the loadout screen.]]

===M24 SWS (in FDE chassis)===
A variant chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum in an FDE chassis appears in the sniper rifles class as the "LA-B 330". This is essentially the "ZLR SP-R Overseer" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. The name appears to imply that this is supposed to be a Long Action receiver, which is correct for the M24.
[[File:MW22 SPR 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]

===M24 SWS (in custom chassis)===
The "SA-B 50" marksman rifle is another variant in a custom chassis, which is a modified version of the "XRK SP-LITE 208 Blitz" chassis from ''Modern Warfare''. Contrary to its name, which would suggest it is chambered in .50 BMG, the rifle is instead chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum.

=Machine Guns=
==Dillon Aero M134 Minigun==
The handheld [[Dillon Aero M134 Minigun]] from ''Modern Warfare'' returns as the Juggernaut's primary weapon.

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

==Heckler & Koch HK21==
The [[Heckler & Koch HK21]] appears in-game as the "RAPP H". It has a stylized handguard and barrel, and incorrectly has the aforementioned [[PTR 9KT]]-style trigger group (this time with normal S-E-F markings), though it can be fitted with a more appropriate Navy-style trigger group with the "LMK64 Grip" attachment.

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

==RPK==
The [[RPK]] appears in the game. It appears to be a Romanian clone, the PM md. 64, noted by the carrying handle and the ribbed receiver cover. Customization options include [[AKM]]-style barrels and stocks, giving it a similar appearance to certain RPK-receiver style AKs such as the Molot Vepr FM 7.62x39 or Century Arms BFT47, ribbed top cover and other details aside.

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

==Steyr AUG HBAR-T==
The [[Steyr AUG HBAR|Steyr AUG HBAR-T]] appears in the game as the "HCR 56". It feeds by default from the same 60 round magazines that were available for it in ''Modern Warfare'', which are based on the Magpul D60 drum, however this seem to be non-STANAG as the NATO variant of the AUG doesn't have a bolt release (which the gun in the game incorrectly features).

[[File:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FGM-148 Javelin Block 0 with original M98A1 CLU and original BCU - 127mm]]

==FN40GL==
The [[FN40GL]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the SCAR-L, identified as "Hellscream 40mm" in the gunsmith, though it's called "M203" when picking up a SCAR from the ground.
[[File:Scar-L std 40gl.jpg|thumb|none|450px|FN40GL mounted on a SCAR-L - 40x46mm]]

==GP-25==
A stylized [[GP-25]] appears as the underbarrel grenade launcher option for the AK/Kastov rifles, although like the FN40GL it is mislabeled as an M203 on dropped weapons featuring this attachment.
[[File:Gp-25 1.jpg|thumb|none|350px|GP-25 - 40mm]]

==LMT M203==
The [[LMT M203]] grenade launcher is available as an underbarrel option, under the name "SPW 40mm", despite being identified as an M203 when picking up a dropped weapon equipped with it.
[[File:LMT M203 9inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|LMT M203 2003 L2B - 40x46mm]]

==Madbull XM203==
The same Madbull XM203/ISTEC ISL-200 hybrid from ''Modern Warfare'' appears as the "TL40 Fire Drake".

==Milkor AV-140 MSGL==
The [[Milkor Mark 14|Milkor AV-140 MSGL]] appears in the campaign and Special Operations as the "REV G-80", firing high-explosive grenades only. As with its ''Modern Warfare'' counterpart, it reloads through the use of a fictional grenade launcher speedloader, regardless of how many grenades were shot prior to reloading. Its designation refers to its revolver-type design and its original design date before its actual development for the SADF, which is 1980.
[[File:AV-140 MSGL.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Milkor AV-140 MSGL - 40x46mm]]

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

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

=Explosives=
==Model 7290 Flashbang Grenade==
A tooltip showing a [[Model 7290 flashbang grenade]] is seen in the gameplay trailer. It appears to be incorrectly dubbed the "[[M84 stun grenade|M84 Flash]]".

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

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

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

=Unusable Weapons=
==Kimber Custom TLE/RL II==
What looks like the previous game's [[Kimber Custom TLE/RL II]] is seen in a cartel member's waistband in the campaign during the mission "El Sin Nombre". This is a low quality model and it's unusable by the player.
