Though the shots are not very clear, some rifles seen used by NEST extras appear to feature the stock pattern and overall profile of the &amp;quot;Entry Carbine&amp;quot; variant of the ACR, or possibly the Magpul Masada.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
A number of [[M4A1]] style carbines are used by some of Soldiers of N.E.S.T, the US Army and Navy SEALs. They are all customized with a different number of accessories. Many of the carbines used later in the film feature a wealth of Magpul furniture, including CTR stocks, MOE pistol grips, PMAGs, and angled foregrips, while those used by US forces and NEST base guards appear to have accessories from the SOPMOD kit. In one scene, Sam refers to them as &amp;quot;full-kit M4s&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

The [[Bushmaster_ACR|Remington ACR]] is seen in the hands of Lieutenant Colonel Will Lennox ([[Josh Duhamel]]), as well as other N.E.S.T soldiers with a scope, laser and custom barrel shroud which might or might not supposed to be a flash suppressor. Like Epps' M4, Lennox's ACR also uses Magpul Pmags. Though the shots are not very clear, some rifles seen used by NEST extras appear to feature the stock pattern and overall profile of the &amp;quot;Entry Carbine&amp;quot; variant of the ACR, or possibly the Magpul Masada.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Note: This is the first movie where the ACR has been shown in numbers as well as a bunch of other Magpul products like the BUIS (Back UP Iron Sights), CTR stock, the Pmags of both 5.56mm and 7.62mm and the AFG (Angled ForeGrip).

[[Image:Transformersdarkofmoonlogo2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Transformers: Dark of the Moon'' (2011)]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''The following weapons were used in the film ''Transformers: Dark of the Moon'':'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
__TOC__&amp;lt;br clear=&amp;quot;all&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Handguns=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Glock 17==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Glock 17]] features prominently in the film. Sam ([[Shia LaBeouf]]) uses a third-generation model during the battle in Chicago, which he is given by Bobby Epps ([[Tyrese Gibson]]). Epps also has one on a chest holster. Simmons' bodyguard Dutch ([[Alan Tudyk]]) uses one during a standoff with two former Russian cosmonauts in a bar, dual-wielding it with a sawn-off double-barreled shotgun. At the film's climax, Sam is held at gunpoint with one. In some scenes, the sound of a hammer being cocked is inaccurately inserted when the Glock is drawn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Beretta 92FS Inox==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A pair of [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92FS Inox|Beretta 92FS Inoxs]] are dual-wielded by Jerry Wang ([[Ken Jeong]]) in an attempt to defend himself from a Decepticon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Beretta-Inox.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Beretta 92FS Inox - 9x19mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Walther PPK/S==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During a standoff between Simmons ([[John Turturro]]), Dutch and two former cosmonauts, a Russian lady ([[Inna Korobkina]]) draws a [[Walther PPK|Walther PPK/S]].&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:WaltherPPKS.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Walther PPK/S - .380 ACP.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tokarev TT-33==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another Russian pulls a stainless [[Tokarev TT-33]] on Simmons. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Unknown Pistols ==&lt;br /&gt;
Seen holstered on the big soldier. another is also seen in Epps' thigh holster.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Shotguns=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Double-Barreled Shotgun==&lt;br /&gt;
During the standoff between Simmons and the cosmonauts, the bartender pulls a sawn-off double-barreled shotgun from behind the bar. Dutch later grabs it from her and dual-wields it with his [[Glock 17]]. During the struggle, one shot is fired from it; erroneously, when Dutch grabs it and aims it, the sound effect of a pump-action shotgun and an empty shell falling to the floor can be heard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Rifles=&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== AKM ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Iranian and Ukrainian soldiers are armed with [[AKM]] rifles. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:AKMRifle.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|AKM, Stamped Steel Receiver w/ slant muzzle brake - 7.62x39mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== M4A1 Variants ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A number of [[M4A1]] style carbines are used by some of Soldiers of N.E.S.T, the US Army and Navy SEALs. They are all customized with a different number of accessories. Many of the carbines used later in the film feature a wealth of Magpul furniture, including CTR stocks, MOE pistol grips, PMAGs, and angled foregrips, while those used by US forces and NEST base guards appear to have accessories from the SOPMOD kit. In one scene, Sam refers to them as &amp;quot;full-kit M4s&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Lor_pin_ctr.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Epps with his custom Mk18 Mod 0 fitted with a Magpul CTR stock.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Remington ACR ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Bushmaster_ACR|Remington ACR]] is seen in the hands of Lieutenant Colonel Will Lennox ([[Josh Duhamel]]), as well as other N.E.S.T soldiers with a scope, laser and custom barrel shroud which might or might not supposed to be a flash suppressor. Like Epps' M4, Lennox's ACR also uses Magpul Pmags. Though the shots are not very clear, some rifles seen used by NEST extras appear to feature the stock pattern and overall profile of the &amp;quot;Entry Carbine&amp;quot; variant of the ACR, or possibly the Magpul Masada.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Bushmaster-acr-carbine.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Bushmaster ACR Carbine - 5.56x45mm/7.62x39mm]]&lt;br /&gt;

Note: This is the first movie where the ACR has been shown in numbers as well as a bunch of other Magpul products like the BUIS (Back UP Iron Sights), CTR stock, the Pmags of both 5.56mm and 7.62mm and the AFG (Angled ForeGrip). This is also the ACR's first appearance with this specific longer barrel and railed fore end.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
A [[LaRue Tactical OSR]], as identified by the forend bolted to the upper receiver, is used by a SEAL sniper to engage Decepticons during the battle in Chicago. Like many weapons in the film, it features a Magpul PMAG, this one being the 20LR version in 7.62x51mm NATO.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;== Gun disparity ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have the feeling the M4A1 will be the counterpart to the AKS74U. This is wrong, but every game seems to do it. The M4 has a 14.5 inch barrel and is a standard issue weapon. The AKS74U has an 8.3 inch barrel and is issued to vehicle crews. A better setup would be Mk 18 Mod O (or HK416 D10RS) vs the AKS74U. Also, the M16 and AK74 aren't exactly equal either. Maybe pair up the regular M4A1 or SCAR-L with 14.5 inch barrel (for variety) with the AK74?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh and what do you think the US/EU counterparts to the SKS, RPK and AS Val will be? There's no US counterpart cartridge to the 7.62x39 and 9x39 as far as I know.&lt;br /&gt;
::There's no val, that's vss&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:SKS = Mk.11 = SVD. RPK = M27. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 17:52, 9 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its the asval not vss :S.[[User:lukewilliams010]] 12:14 ,19 august 2011&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== PKM\PKP operation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've yet to see a game that properly portraits PKM operation with its 2 level feeding system and non-disintegrating belts. Curious if in BF3 they'll get it right. Doubt it though...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Optic mounts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Optic mounts on all russian weapons are wrong. Basically it's an PSO with optic tube cut off and rail slapped instead of it. Then every Russian scope has its original mount removed so it can be fixed on that picatinny rail. They also didn't bother making [http://content.foto.mail.ru/mail/photoshooter/1789/i-2863.jpg proper mount] for PKP and just put rail on top of the receiver lid. I was expecting more attention to details in BF3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well the Russian army IS starting to use RIS, just look at the AK-9. [http://world.guns.ru/assault/rus/ak-9-e.html] While it does seem a bit sloppy, it can be justified in a way. At least it isn't as bad as that AK-abomination from MW2 and the RPD with rails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Beta ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Does anyone know when the beta is starting? cant wait for it! --[[Special:Contributions/109.78.246.33|109.78.246.33]] 21:34, 24 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Or for that matter, how we can get in on it? [[User:That&amp;amp;#39;s One Angry Duck|That&amp;amp;#39;s One Angry Duck]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To get into the Battlefield 3 beta, you need to buy specially-marked versions of the recent Medal Of Honor [[User:SeanWolf]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ya i got it, do you know when were getting the codes?--[[User:GunGunGun|GunGunGun]] 02:40, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have no clue.[[User:SeanWolf]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you registered your Medal of Honor with your EA-Account, you'll get the invitation and infos, as soon as there is something, so far nothing is known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wish I could try the beta [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 22:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Not just you, after the videos they releases pretty much everybody is dying to get hands on the game. [[User:Killerpixel|Killerpixel]] 12:05, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beta will be open to everyone. Those who got MoH, will get in earlier.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== AK-something-something ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The M240G is actually a M240B as seen by gameplay screenshots. You can also identify it's M240B by the heat shield. I guess that inaccuracy in every war game (including new games) will always be. --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 11:44, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Wrong use of the word &amp;quot;anachronistic&amp;quot; there. An anachronism is an object, event, or person portrayed in a chronologically inaccurate time period. The Marines using the M240B is a mistake, no doubt, but it's not an anachronism as the M240B still does technically ''exist'' at the same time beside the Golf model.

== Racking charging handle when reloading after empty ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new trailer showed you shooting an M4 and when you are empty, you reload but instead of pressing the bolt release, you charge the handle. I seriously hope this isn't the default reload [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 04:35, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the begining of the trailer, it did say that it was pre-alpha code.  They'll hopefully have the modeling and other animations fixed by then.--[[User:Gunkatas|Gunkatas]] 05:04, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, cause I'm getting bad flashbacks to games in early 2000 that pulls the charging handle when doing mid mag reloads [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 05:31, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I remember correctly, the M16A2 &amp;amp; M4A1 reloading animations from ''[[Battlefield 2|BF2]]'' had the character use the charging handle instead of the bolt release when reloading, they may have borrowed that. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 05:58, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:3D modeling and animation is kinda hard to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; from older engine/file format. I'd guess it's probably &amp;quot;director thinks this looks more dynamic&amp;quot; like [[Black]], or maybe the animator is under heavy influence of games in early 2000 :/ [[User:Ssate|Ssate]] 02:43, 12 April 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Also in Bad Company and the second one they did the same thing where the slide didn't lock back. If it's one thing Modern Warfare has done right is the reload animation...well except maybe for the ACR. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 22:14, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:There was also a problem with the SPAS-12: the character pump it after the reload even if there was a shell in the chamber. Same in Black Ops. Not to mention that &amp;quot;all pistols were DAO&amp;quot; since the hammers never move. [[User:Bozitojugg3rn4ut|bozitojugg3rn4ut]] 08:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

About reloads, in last years Metal of Honor, you do a combat reload when your shotgun is empty. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 22:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another nice touch that they put in was that they left the front sight on the M4 even though it has an optical sight.  In most games the front sight is either removed completely (like Bad Company 2 or Call of Duty 4) or else it has a flip down front sight (like Modern Warfare 2).  Adds a nice level of realism in my opinion.--[[User:Gunkatas|Gunkatas]] 06:29, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I always thought removing the front sight from M4/M16 rifles in games was utterly stupid mall ninja BS, not to mention making the gun look ugly as sin. In a real-world situation, if your optic fails and you don't have any iron sights to fall back on, you're basically SOL while the other guy who's never even heard of a red dot sight is still capable of sending rounds your way.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah I noticed this too. All BF games seem to get reloads completely wrong. You get the feeling the make you rack the charging handle with a mid mag reload to clear the current round so they don't have to take it into account. As awesome as charging the action yourself, or racking the top slide looks, you just never do it during a normal reload. I do hope they change this yeah, but I doubt they will looking back at the other games. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Battlefield games, but I don't see how its that hard to get weapons right when they hire Ex-military guys to get everything else right. You can even find these things on Google these days. And with COD removing the iron sights on the M16s and M4s they are also removing the gas block. The gun would have to fire one round and then the action be charged manually. I love these games, but some times the ignorance they show towards the things they claim are most important pisses me off a bit.--[[User:Chablar|Chablar]] 14:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:The use of military and ex-military people are for realistic look of the soldiers, their movements, they communications, and look of ground vehicles and aircraft... But don't forget that it is not that hard to search for photos in the internet of weapons, vehicles, aircraft, uniforms, equipment, etc. and create it in the computer, without using the help of the military guys. As what we see know. BF3 goes for the realistic way, that's right, but it is not realistic in the small details. CoD4:MW, CoD:MW2, CoD:BO, the new MoH, OFP series, ArmA series, and of course the series of BF from BF2 and onwards have so many unrealistic small details that can be fixed easily by using mod tools. The developers doesn't really care if the M4A1 has gas block (CoD) or if you charge the weapon with the charging handle (BF2, BF3), they just want to create a game, realistic or not just the gamers will be happy. It is a bit funny as so many things are so realistic in this game but someone who has good military knowledge will notice right away for the f*** ups. In OFP:RR for example, they only thing that bothers me is that the M16A4 in-game looks like the Canadian C7 rifle. --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 18:50, 5 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
don't forget in MW2, fans were commenting that the rear flip up sight on the SCAR was backwards and would back towards the shooter and not forward. IW didn't change it cause they don't care of the little details. Also I like to see a game where they have a random chance to destroy your optic so can you actually can flip up your irons. After the EMP in MW2, they forgot that pretty much all the M4s and SCARS had flip up sights but none of them bothered to flip them up. That'll be the first thing I noticed when I aim or the fact that the ACOG is not electronic and would still work when an EMP hits.

&lt;br /&gt;
I liked how ''[[Project Reality]]'' completely replaced the M16/M4 reload animation from ''BF2''; the only time the charging handle is messed with is when you first bring the weapon up, and even then it's more of a brass check than a full pull back. The reloading animation has you swap the mags, hit the bolt release, and check the ejection port. Much more realistic reloading animation. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 07:03, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What I wish is adding different animation for reloads. If you are in the middle of an intense fire fight, you reload and press the bolt faster and you randomly fumble with your reload cause it happens. Or if the firefight is over, you do a more slow reload. Also if the gun has flip up sights, I want to see an animation where you actually flip those irons up [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 11:02, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I don't think I'd be happy with the former; same as random jams or giving singleplayer enemies a chance of getting an instakill headshot on the player, it isn't much fun having the game secretly flipping a coin to decide if you get screwed or not. ''Black'' did slower reloads if you weren't being fired at, though; it either sped the whole animation up or skipped the unnecessary wanking around if you were being shot at when you pressed reload. [[User:Vangelis|Vangelis]] 11:50, 8 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another thing about leaving the front sight post on the M4s is that the red dot sight is raised and not like in COD4 where it is mounted on the rail. Maybe in real life, having 2 eyes would sort of work, but even then you can still have a front post bother your eye looking at it. It wouldn't be a clear shot [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 11:04, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The only game I've seen that gets it all right is Crysis 2, and the weapons are all fictional, though they could all easily exist. It's got both reload animations (six actually, because you do them different in Armour or Stealth mode), +1 in the chamber, attachments on your gun based on where they're mounted (one optic, a suppressor or no suppressor, and an underbarrel), believable damages based on calibres, functioning pistol hammers, and pistol slides that lock back when empty and not as part of the reload animation (meaning you can run around and stuff with a locked empty pistol).

New info at Kotaku and others mentions &amp;quot;Temporarily disabling vehicles&amp;quot;. I'm thinking it may be some sort of EMP thing, though, even for BF that's a stretch. What would be preferable, is if for instance... a tank... had several parts that were damageable. Things like treads, optics, engines, etc could be disabled in order to halt a tank. Same goes with tires and stuff like that with other vehicles. This'd be really cool in my opinion, for instance, snipers could damage the optics of a tank with say a .50 BMG round, temporarily of course.

== M16 Carry Handle Fix ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If anybody's seen the EA PWNED BF3 episode, it looks like they've added the carry handle to the M16A4. Two short clips demonstrating the ANT animation system that show the M16A4 with it. Good stuff. Also, did anyone notice how they're making prone realistic? It seems they're having the player's elbows be fixed rotateable spots along with the player's spine being able to bend a certain number of degrees. In order to rotate around, the player has to physically crawl over to view that area. It's easy to see in the animation demos that I referred to, but it's also noticeable on the 12 minute trailer when the Marines are on the rooftop, watch the perspective of the player's weapon and how it moves in relation to the arms. Very cool indeed, because I know balancing prone has always been a problem with BF. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 09:15, 30 May 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Semi-auto and C4. That could just mean default, and you still get bolt-actions and the mortar later, but I really think they mean they removed both of those, to balance the issues with those two things in BC2. Everyone uses Recon, everyone hides with a one hit kill sniper rifle, and everyone calls in their magic mortars from anywhere onto anything. It looks like they're trying to make the Recon kit more of a DMR kit than a true sniper, which is probably better, it fits the squad play better as a DMR and a support gunner do the same job, one with high amounts of precision, the other with high amounts of ammo. On a different note, I'm pretty sure the M4A1 will be in the engineer kit because it has a flashlight and will be the counterpart to the AKS-74U, like the M16A4 and AK-74M.

: They meant at the E3 demo, the Recon class has a semi-automatic sniper rifle. At the E3 Demo. Hence the &amp;quot;E3 Roundup&amp;quot; title, it's not dismissing anything, just saying what they saw at E3. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 21:47, 18 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== M249 SAW is actually Mk. 46 Mod 0? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By looking at the handgurads, I noticed that they are sticking out like the Mk. 46 Mod 0's handguards instead of the flat M249 SAW's heatshield. Also, because the weapon is fitted with M145 ECLAN scope, this could be the same model as in Medal of Honor, only it is rendered differently or something like that to fit Battlefield 3's engine. So, could be? --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 03:54, 9 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Yep, it's for sure the Mk 46. Though, it's all one nacho. Glad with the weapon choices they're going with so far. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 10:34, 9 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Glad to see the M145 MGO, presumably in place of the ACOG. Nice touch. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 08:13, 12 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yep, there's also some speculation that there'll be multiple types of 4x optics for each weapon, like you could put the Elcan on an M4. But I think it's more likely that each weapon will just have a different model of ACOG-type optic. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 08:27, 12 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The quality of the screenshot is too low to tell if it's an M249 or a Mark 46. The key difference between the two is that the M249 has a magazine well on the side of the receiver for using M16 mags, but the Mark 46 doesn't. You can't really tell if the SAW in this game has a mag well or not. I also want to point out that the SAW in MoH has a magazine well, which would make it an M249. ;) [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 05:06, 10 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

there's a clear model error...the magazine is lodged inside the weapon at an angle and the charging handles are floating above the magazine in midair.&lt;br /&gt;
however, the magazine looks like its of appropriate size and its transparent....would be a nice touch if the bullets inside would actually be visible and move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
May perhaps point to an extended magazines type system, though you'd expect the studio to realise that the P90 feeds from the rear so this wouldn't function --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 08:09, 12 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are Extended Magazines, you can see them in the loadout window in some of the E3 footage on a PKP Pecheneg. But, what the P90 is likely, is just a pre-alpha mess-up. The magazine is there and properly sized, its' just angled downward into the weapon/barrel. It's not married properly to the P90 and is likely just a glitch that will be fixed.

I just saw the latest video where the M4A1 had a holo-sight and the gas block was removed. Looks like this will be just another unrealistic game after all. But at least the character pressed the BCRB instead of pulling the charging handle.

:I might be a bit annoying to have every game M4 lose its gas block, but it really doesn't matter THAT much, and it makes the scope view clearer. To say that it will be &amp;quot;just another unrealistic game&amp;quot; because of that is silly, just pretend it has one of those super mini gas blocks, you wouldn't even be able to see it anyway.

(Continuously updated) This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwT6x7zEQ8c) shows on the kill-feed that the SVD makes a return for Battlefield 3 at 2:20. At 3:48 you see an enemy in the engineer class holding what appears to be an RPG-7 at 3:48. The kill-feed shows at 4:06 a MP-443 pistol. Clear look at an RPG-7 with on the back of an enemy soldier with the rocket (quite dangerously) inserted at 6:03 and again at 7:23. --[[User:DaiTaNam|DaiTaNam]] 16:32, 17 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Team Specific Weapons? ==&lt;br /&gt;

Looking at the AKS-74U pictures it looks scarily like that's a US Marine using it on Spetsnaz. As far as I know there'll be unlockables and selectable weapons, but does anyone know if these are team specific or not? I'm personally pretty worried we're going to have a bunch of marines in state of the art gear running around with AK rifles because a bunch of bars say they're the best, or PLR using M4s and 249's, that's as bad, if not worse. --[[User:AmrasCalmacil|AmrasCalmacil]] 17:26, 17 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I hope its not side specific, I always hated that considering how two weapons from the same class where completely different and handled different. Most people would end up using unlocked guns that you can use on either side. If you want a game thats realistic as possible, play Operation Flashpoint.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Being a fan of Battlefield 2, which featured faction specific weapons, I'm offended someone is saying me to play another game. I might as well say: If you want a game thats unrealistic as possible, play Call of Duty.

::To be honest, Dragon Rising didn't suck, it was just buggy and laggy (which can be said about pretty much every other shooter, at least as start) and didn't have weapon customization (which can be said about Battlefield 2).

==Notes about in-game ACOG scopes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I noticed that there seem to be two separate models of ACOG scopes available in the game, according to the screenshots posted in the article. The M4A1 carbine the player character uses in the 'Faultline' trailer is fitted with a camo-painted TA01NSN ACOG(identifiable by the integral iron sights and lack of a fiber-optic strip along the top) while one of the M16A4's shown in first-person view in the article here is equipped with a TA31F ACOG. This is the second FPS game I've seen to do this, the other being ''[[Project Reality]]'' (itself a mod of ''[[Battlefield 2]]'', coincidentally) which has the TA31F and TA31RCO ACOG models available in it.

I hope DICE won't disappoint the CIS players, so that we can kick yer capitalist arses in proper way... j/k lol :P Anyway, here are the articles for those interested: [http://ra.spetsnaz.su/wiki/1P29 for AK-74M] and [http://ra.spetsnaz.su/wiki/PKP for PKP]. And the [http://www.npzoptics.com/catalog/sights_for_small_arms/ full catalog]. Oh, and it's been suggested on [http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-3/1405448-optics-lots-optics-2.html#post19418223 EA's Forums], so I don't have to do it myself. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 12:24, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
More seriously, that thing McNab has is definately supposed to be a carbine with an underbarrel accessory, I can't really see what else it could be. The other guy's weapon is a bit more of a mystery; since it doesn't have any kind of projection for a magazine, I'd guess it's something like a Bizon; can't be a P90, these rigs are for capturing hand positions and his would be completely wrong for that. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 04:36, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wait, actually it does have a magazine, I see a curved MP5-style mag just in front of his finger. So, maybe it's an MP5 with some underbarrel device making the front end all chunky, or one of those MP10 things like in GTAIV. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 04:40, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
LOL Tommy with M203 :) The one on the right really looks like an M14 EBR to me, the mag, handguard, and barrel, but the other one is weird. It looks like an MP5 pistol grip and mag, with a really bulky front, and a stock that looks familiar, bu I just can't place. :P [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:09, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::Quick google gets me mostly AK-pattern weapons. AK, Saiga, Galil, that kind of thing. Couple on MACs, not that it's likely to be one of those. Maybe that's what a MoCap AKS-74U looks like? :s [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 06:36, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::I'd say that's the best guess so far [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 12:13, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Dunno, such a stock shape reminds me of [http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:G36.jpg G36E] which was in Battlefield 2 (with railz instead of optics). --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 06:35, 18 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Not sure about that, you'd have thought if it was G36E the mocap prop would have a rod or something stuck to the end to represent the rest of the barrel like the one McNab has. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 06:44, 18 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::Bah, I am not really into guessing the gun by the mocap. Details of it - OK, but generally it's just a mishmash that can be used for anything provided the grip is adequate xD --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 06:51, 18 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually the ACE stock is found on the SPAS 15 as well (which was in Bad Company 1, and Battlefield 2 I think) probably the most likely choice. --[[User:Ghostdigga|Ghostdigga]] 18:48, 18 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I was watching this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MgQMoPwGwM&amp;amp;feature=related and around 1:13-14, I thought I saw the pattern found on the straight mags that the 7.62mm NATO variant of the NDM-86 uses.&lt;br /&gt;
EDIT: Okay at 1:15 at the maximum quality, I could clearly see that magazine is straight.  This is no SVD guys, no SVD. --[[User:HashiriyaR32|HashiriyaR32]] 18:09, 21 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Good spot, wouldn't have noticed that myself. I wonder why they opted for the NDM-86 instead of the SVD? I assume the SVD is harder to get in Sweden meaning the studio had to find an alternative. Is it still labeled as an SVD within the game? --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 19:52, 21 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::It is, and it was in MoH. You know, I think MoH was like a super pre-Alpha version of this game, there's and MP7 too, and a few others. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 20:03, 21 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::Would be interesting to see what DC do with the Frostbite 2 engine, I wasn't all that impressed with the single player but taking into account that (as far as I'm aware) MoH was the studio's first game, it was an adequate effort. Was better than the multiplayer at least, in my opinion. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 07:20, 22 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

In the gameplay, I noticed that the front sights are still present when optics are attached, that M16A4 is now burst-fire and that the US LMG is called M249 in-game. Bipod gameplay was shown too. I also spotted the M-416 at 0:55, maybe the M4A1 equivalent of the enemy forces? [[User:Gonzaga|Gonzaga]] 18:45, 24 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Okay, yeah, they made it so the front sight is there, but disappears when aiming, the M16 has burst as well as auto (and semi), and the HK416 is an unlock, ONLY the default weapons are faction based, anyone can use unlocks, but the default ones might be usable by anyone later or something though.

:I'm not complaining, I actually like the front sight disappearing system, if it's not there the gun wouldn't work, but if it was, then having an RDS would give you a better field of view. The M16's fire modes aren't too bad, as long as the weapons have the right ammo count, reload properly, and have +1 I'm happy. Things like the player loading it fancy or whatever are okay.

&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::::Well... since it has both synthetic furniture and curved magazine, it is [http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/machine/mg15/rpkm.jpg RPKM] (ignore the magazine color). However in-game description mentions that it uses 5.45x39 ammo, which is used in [http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/machine/mg16/rpk74_02.jpg RPK-74M] that is actually used by Russian Forces. So the point is, DICE should change the magazine model and rename the weapon to '''RPK-74M''' for Russians. That Militia can use whatever they want. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 05:36, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::::I didn't know that, so the curvature of the magazine in an AK/RPK-style weapon can be used to identify the caliber? DICE have clearly given alpha invites to the wrong people, should have gone to the inhabitants of IMFDB. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 05:42, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== 1911 spotted ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just watched a video and the 1911 is back. This game's version appears to be the MEU model. I can tell from the slide, sights, and hammer. It appears to be the old model with the Springfield Armory slide. [[User:ShootingLiberal|ShootingLiberal]] 23:53, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I can't see the grips, but it appears to be a stock M1911 with a commander-style hammer (the round one, not the MEU one), a silver 3-hole trigger, and a silver barrel. Oh, after Googleing I found that that IS the original version of the MEU :/ http://www.justpistols.co.uk/meu_001.jpg That's an airsoft gun, but it's EXACTLY the one from BF3.

::So my impressions of the alpha so far are largely positive, not the biggest fan of the map however. Too many narrow corridors that you have to enter to advance, meaning that the defending team can plonk a SAW there and wipe you out as you enter the meat grinder. The weapons feel nice: Plenty of recoil meaning that burst firing is essential. Definitely an improvement gameplay-wise compared to BC2, which wasn't a bad game by any stretch of the imagination. Looking forward to the beta now! \o/ --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 09:46, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::::I can't really comment on whether it's better than BF2 as I haven't really spent much time on it (5 mins max) but it is a fairly solid FPS in it's own right.

No one on this site gets that because this site calls every A3-style an A4 with an A2 lower. Why? Because that's what armourers built them with, since they don't have A3s.

&lt;br /&gt;
:::No, Alex is wrong and so are the two websites Masterius linked to. The M16A3 is a full auto A2 (only used by SEALs and Seabees in very limited numbers), NOT a full auto A4. IMFDB policy is to identify a weapon visually, not by what the game calls it. In terms of A3 vs A4, the M16 in this game is intended to be an A4, so that's what it should be called. At least for the moment anyway. If it turns out the devs decide to axe the burst mode, we can classify it a C7A1, but until we know more, it should stay listed as an A4. I'm changing it back.

Yeah, I do have a better source. It's called Defense Industry Daily [http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/the-usas-m-16-rifle-purchases-04517/]. Additionally, if you take a look at the M16A2 section of the [[M16 rifle series]] page, it says the exact same thing. I also never said MF ''wasn't'' a respectable source, but that doesn't alter the fact that it's wrong in this case. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 05:25, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Like I said, the very first A3s had A2 uppers, and after that they had rails. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 07:17, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Put it this way, the only times it says something about not having a top rail, it doesn't. What I mean is, it always says something really vague like &amp;quot;full auto version of the A2&amp;quot;, never mentioning specifics. I have not yet read somewhere that says that the A3 has a fixed carry handle, but have seen plenty that say the opposite. The problem was someone decided a long time ago that this site was for guns that are in movies only, not a gun wiki, so since the A3 is not in any civvie hands, and therefore not in any movies, it shouldn't be mentioned. All &amp;quot;A3&amp;quot;s in movies are A4s with A2 lowers, that is what the armourer used. However with the addition of newer weapons, and therefore newer entries, and the addition of games, where the guns don't really exist and therefore ARE anything, things are being added that never were before. Correct me if I'm wrong but the Mk.18 is only a military weapon, right? That means that, say, in the first Transformers movie Josh Duhamel's Mk.18 wouldn't have been a real Mk.18, but some Civvie M4 with a short barrel and such, made to look exactly the same as one. But that doesn't make it a Mk.18, however it IS listed as such. I may be wrong and it might actually be a Mk.18, but then Canadian C7-series is a better example: NO civvies have them. Period. But it still has an entry, as it is in Reality Mod, among a few others. Now we see the problem with not having an M16A3 entry: there might not be any in civvie hands, but there are some in games, like BF3, but COD4 singleplayer comes to mind as well, and I'm sure there are others. Hmm, I guess what this comes down to is we need an M16A3 listing on the M16 page. All of them should be listed, even if the only info is the name, a sentence about the weapon, and mention that it has never been in anything, otherwise we get stuff like everyone on the site getting false info about a particular weapon, and this happens. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 16:14, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::That ''is'' specific. &amp;quot;Full auto version of the A2&amp;quot; means it's externally identical to the A2, but has fully automatic. I don't see how that's vague. If you've got a credible source saying A3s are &amp;quot;now issued&amp;quot; with flat top uppers, I'd like to see it. But if you look at the pattern of M16 rifle development, it's very likely that such a modification would bear a designation other than A3 (the only two exceptions to this in the platform's history were the Air Force's 11.5&amp;quot; barreled XM177s and when the Army dropped the Model 777 M4 for the Model 920 M4. Josh Duhamal used an M933 in Transformers, not a Mark 18. Mark 18-type carbines with 10.3&amp;quot; or 10.5&amp;quot; barrels can be had by anyone with proper licensing. But the reason we have Mark 18 mock-ups in movies listed as Mark 18s is because, like I already pointed out, it's IMFDB policy to identify the weapon on a visual basis. If it ''looks'' like a Mark 18, we ''call it'' a Mark 18 unless some other way of concretely identifying the weapon (such as an armorer ID) comes along. Your argument about civilian acquisition is a dead end since armorers like MPM are civilians, yet have fully automatic M4s, AK-47s, M60s, and so on in their possession. The only games I've played with full auto M16A4s are CoD4 and MoH, the pages for both of which identify the rifle as an M16''A4''. If you want an A3 category added, either take a look at the [[Talk:M16_rifle_series#Do_well_really_need_to_have_an_.22A2.22_and_.22A3.22_category.3F|M16 rifle talk page to see why it was deleted]] (where MPM himself states that the M16A3 has the same upper receiver as the A2) or come to the forum and state your case as to why said category should be reinstated. But as per IMFDB policy, the M16 on this page should be classified as an A4. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 00:14, 14 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::A few things; first, it looks like this list is a little dated, as Demize confirmed both M16s, but even though details might have changed, I bet this is a 100% list. Second, remember this doesn't include stuff like the M320 (as it's a Gadget in terms of game), and mounted weapons. Third, I'm assuming the M39 (M14) will be semi only, as only it and the SKS are in the Battle Rifle section, with the G3 moved to Assault Rifles. Similarly, I'm betting the Glock 18 and Beretta 93R will be auto and burst only, otherwise the Glock 17 and M9 would be pretty useless. Fourth, notice that there is a P90 AND a P90TR. I'm thinking if you attach an RDS to the P90TR, it becomes the standard one, like COD4's MP5SD. Lastly, what's a T44 pistol? I did a quick search and all I got was this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/de/T44.jpg Oh, also, I'm totally using the M82 with irons, just for kicks :) [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 19:49, 16 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I'm thinking the &amp;quot;T44&amp;quot; might be the sidearm for Iranian forces, like the KH2002 will be their assault rifle. I don't know what it could be referring to, though; as far as I know, Iran uses P226 copies as their standard sidearm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This looks ''really'' suspicious to me. No G36E (as was expected from BF2 (L85 too)), no SG 550 (as was confirmed by Demize), no multiple M16 (wasn't that said by Demize?), &amp;quot;Battle Rifles&amp;quot; actually being Marksman Rifle (M39) and Semi-Automatic Carbine (SKS), several weapons being ported from BC2 (AEK-971, A-91, PP-2000, Saiga-20K, MP-412) instead of BF2 (Bizon or Vityaz, Saiga-12K) for no reason; Beretta 93R and Glock 18 are actually law enforcement automatic pistols and will overshadow regular pistols... And T44? WW2 prototype gun being put in pistols?&lt;br /&gt;

People, while it has been confirmed that the fact sheet is indeed official, it's also been confirmed that it '''IS NOT A FINAL LIST''', it only shows the equipment available '''SO FAR'''. So don't worry, I'm sure many more equipment options will come (I hope these include an MP5). [[User:Gonzaga|Gonzaga]] 20:34, 22 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Gonzaga that's pretty much false hope , because there not going to release an official fact sheet and then add &amp;quot;many more guns&amp;quot; its not even wishful thinking its just stupid.and Alex when somethings is unconfirmed that doesn't mean its automatically going to be in the game, and if its anything like bfbc2 which it is, the guns will be seperate like the vientnam expansion.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;== Gun disparity ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have the feeling the M4A1 will be the counterpart to the AKS74U. This is wrong, but every game seems to do it. The M4 has a 14.5 inch barrel and is a standard issue weapon. The AKS74U has an 8.3 inch barrel and is issued to vehicle crews. A better setup would be Mk 18 Mod O (or HK416 D10RS) vs the AKS74U. Also, the M16 and AK74 aren't exactly equal either. Maybe pair up the regular M4A1 or SCAR-L with 14.5 inch barrel (for variety) with the AK74?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh and what do you think the US/EU counterparts to the SKS, RPK and AS Val will be? There's no US counterpart cartridge to the 7.62x39 and 9x39 as far as I know.&lt;br /&gt;

== PKM\PKP operation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've yet to see a game that properly portraits PKM operation with its 2 level feeding system and non-disintegrating belts. Curious if in BF3 they'll get it right. Doubt it though...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Optic mounts ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Optic mounts on all russian weapons are wrong. Basically it's an PSO with optic tube cut off and rail slapped instead of it. Then every Russian scope has its original mount removed so it can be fixed on that picatinny rail. They also didn't bother making [http://content.foto.mail.ru/mail/photoshooter/1789/i-2863.jpg proper mount] for PKP and just put rail on top of the receiver lid. I was expecting more attention to details in BF3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well the Russian army IS starting to use RIS, just look at the AK-9. [http://world.guns.ru/assault/rus/ak-9-e.html] While it does seem a bit sloppy, it can be justified in a way. At least it isn't as bad as that AK-abomination from MW2 and the RPD with rails.&lt;br /&gt;

== M240G is M240B ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The M240G is actually a M240B as seen by gameplay screenshots. You can also identify it's M240B by the heat shield. I guess that inaccuracy in every war game (including new games) will always be. --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 11:44, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I knew it was some kind of M240 variant, but since it was being used by a Marine I assumed it was the 240-Golf variant since they typically use that instead of the 240-Bravo. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 03:26, 27 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wrong use of the word &amp;quot;anachronistic&amp;quot; there. An anachronism is an object, event, or person portrayed in a chronologically inaccurate time period. The Marines using the M240B is a mistake, no doubt, but it's not an anachronism as the M240B still does technically ''exist'' at the same time beside the Golf model.

== Racking charging handle when reloading after empty ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new trailer showed you shooting an M4 and when you are empty, you reload but instead of pressing the bolt release, you charge the handle. I seriously hope this isn't the default reload [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 04:35, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the begining of the trailer, it did say that it was pre-alpha code.  They'll hopefully have the modeling and other animations fixed by then.--[[User:Gunkatas|Gunkatas]] 05:04, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, cause I'm getting bad flashbacks to games in early 2000 that pulls the charging handle when doing mid mag reloads [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 05:31, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I remember correctly, the M16A2 &amp;amp; M4A1 reloading animations from ''[[Battlefield 2|BF2]]'' had the character use the charging handle instead of the bolt release when reloading, they may have borrowed that. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 05:58, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:3D modeling and animation is kinda hard to &amp;quot;borrow&amp;quot; from older engine/file format. I'd guess it's probably &amp;quot;director thinks this looks more dynamic&amp;quot; like [[Black]], or maybe the animator is under heavy influence of games in early 2000 :/ [[User:Ssate|Ssate]] 02:43, 12 April 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well I hope they change it to using bolt release because it's wield for someone to do that unless you're clearing a malfunction [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 06:46, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm liking how they now keep track of a round in the chamber and you don't go through the whole reloading animation, maybe this time we'll have proper pistol reloads.--[[User:FIVETWOSEVEN|FIVETWOSEVEN]] 19:05, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What's a &amp;quot;proper&amp;quot; pistol reload? [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 20:21, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I think he meant that the slide does not lock back when the pistol runs out, like in Medal Of Honor MP. [[User:Bozitojugg3rn4ut|bozitojugg3rn4ut]] 20:43, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also in Bad Company and the second one they did the same thing where the slide didn't lock back. If it's one thing Modern Warfare has done right is the reload animation...well except maybe for the ACR. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 22:14, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:There was also a problem with the SPAS-12: the character pump it after the reload even if there was a shell in the chamber. Same in Black Ops. Not to mention that &amp;quot;all pistols were DAO&amp;quot; since the hammers never move. [[User:Bozitojugg3rn4ut|bozitojugg3rn4ut]] 08:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

About reloads, in last years Metal of Honor, you do a combat reload when your shotgun is empty. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 22:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another nice touch that they put in was that they left the front sight on the M4 even though it has an optical sight.  In most games the front sight is either removed completely (like Bad Company 2 or Call of Duty 4) or else it has a flip down front sight (like Modern Warfare 2).  Adds a nice level of realism in my opinion.--[[User:Gunkatas|Gunkatas]] 06:29, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I always thought removing the front sight from M4/M16 rifles in games was utterly stupid mall ninja BS, not to mention making the gun look ugly as sin. In a real-world situation, if your optic fails and you don't have any iron sights to fall back on, you're basically SOL while the other guy who's never even heard of a red dot sight is still capable of sending rounds your way.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Yeah I noticed this too. All BF games seem to get reloads completely wrong. You get the feeling the make you rack the charging handle with a mid mag reload to clear the current round so they don't have to take it into account. As awesome as charging the action yourself, or racking the top slide looks, you just never do it during a normal reload. I do hope they change this yeah, but I doubt they will looking back at the other games. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Battlefield games, but I don't see how its that hard to get weapons right when they hire Ex-military guys to get everything else right. You can even find these things on Google these days. And with COD removing the iron sights on the M16s and M4s they are also removing the gas block. The gun would have to fire one round and then the action be charged manually. I love these games, but some times the ignorance they show towards the things they claim are most important pisses me off a bit.--[[User:Chablar|Chablar]] 14:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:The use of military and ex-military people are for realistic look of the soldiers, their movements, they communications, and look of ground vehicles and aircraft... But don't forget that it is not that hard to search for photos in the internet of weapons, vehicles, aircraft, uniforms, equipment, etc. and create it in the computer, without using the help of the military guys. As what we see know. BF3 goes for the realistic way, that's right, but it is not realistic in the small details. CoD4:MW, CoD:MW2, CoD:BO, the new MoH, OFP series, ArmA series, and of course the series of BF from BF2 and onwards have so many unrealistic small details that can be fixed easily by using mod tools. The developers doesn't really care if the M4A1 has gas block (CoD) or if you charge the weapon with the charging handle (BF2, BF3), they just want to create a game, realistic or not just the gamers will be happy. It is a bit funny as so many things are so realistic in this game but someone who has good military knowledge will notice right away for the f*** ups. In OFP:RR for example, they only thing that bothers me is that the M16A4 in-game looks like the Canadian C7 rifle. --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 18:50, 5 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
don't forget in MW2, fans were commenting that the rear flip up sight on the SCAR was backwards and would back towards the shooter and not forward. IW didn't change it cause they don't care of the little details. Also I like to see a game where they have a random chance to destroy your optic so can you actually can flip up your irons. After the EMP in MW2, they forgot that pretty much all the M4s and SCARS had flip up sights but none of them bothered to flip them up. That'll be the first thing I noticed when I aim or the fact that the ACOG is not electronic and would still work when an EMP hits. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 19:43, 5 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;

New behind-the-scenes footage reveals that there are partial reload animations --[[User:HashiriyaR32|HashiriyaR32]] 20:16, 5 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I liked how ''[[Project Reality]]'' completely replaced the M16/M4 reload animation from ''BF2''; the only time the charging handle is messed with is when you first bring the weapon up, and even then it's more of a brass check than a full pull back. The reloading animation has you swap the mags, hit the bolt release, and check the ejection port. Much more realistic reloading animation. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 07:03, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What I wish is adding different animation for reloads. If you are in the middle of an intense fire fight, you reload and press the bolt faster and you randomly fumble with your reload cause it happens. Or if the firefight is over, you do a more slow reload. Also if the gun has flip up sights, I want to see an animation where you actually flip those irons up [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 11:02, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I don't think I'd be happy with the former; same as random jams or giving singleplayer enemies a chance of getting an instakill headshot on the player, it isn't much fun having the game secretly flipping a coin to decide if you get screwed or not. ''Black'' did slower reloads if you weren't being fired at, though; it either sped the whole animation up or skipped the unnecessary wanking around if you were being shot at when you pressed reload. [[User:Vangelis|Vangelis]] 11:50, 8 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another thing about leaving the front sight post on the M4s is that the red dot sight is raised and not like in COD4 where it is mounted on the rail. Maybe in real life, having 2 eyes would sort of work, but even then you can still have a front post bother your eye looking at it. It wouldn't be a clear shot [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 11:04, 6 March 2011 (MSK)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:The only game I've seen that gets it all right is Crysis 2, and the weapons are all fictional, though they could all easily exist. It's got both reload animations (six actually, because you do them different in Armour or Stealth mode), +1 in the chamber, attachments on your gun based on where they're mounted (one optic, a suppressor or no suppressor, and an underbarrel), believable damages based on calibres, functioning pistol hammers, and pistol slides that lock back when empty and not as part of the reload animation (meaning you can run around and stuff with a locked empty pistol).

New info at Kotaku and others mentions &amp;quot;Temporarily disabling vehicles&amp;quot;. I'm thinking it may be some sort of EMP thing, though, even for BF that's a stretch. What would be preferable, is if for instance... a tank... had several parts that were damageable. Things like treads, optics, engines, etc could be disabled in order to halt a tank. Same goes with tires and stuff like that with other vehicles. This'd be really cool in my opinion, for instance, snipers could damage the optics of a tank with say a .50 BMG round, temporarily of course.

== M16 Carry Handle Fix ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If anybody's seen the EA PWNED BF3 episode, it looks like they've added the carry handle to the M16A4. Two short clips demonstrating the ANT animation system that show the M16A4 with it. Good stuff. Also, did anyone notice how they're making prone realistic? It seems they're having the player's elbows be fixed rotateable spots along with the player's spine being able to bend a certain number of degrees. In order to rotate around, the player has to physically crawl over to view that area. It's easy to see in the animation demos that I referred to, but it's also noticeable on the 12 minute trailer when the Marines are on the rooftop, watch the perspective of the player's weapon and how it moves in relation to the arms. Very cool indeed, because I know balancing prone has always been a problem with BF. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 09:15, 30 May 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Semi-auto and C4. That could just mean default, and you still get bolt-actions and the mortar later, but I really think they mean they removed both of those, to balance the issues with those two things in BC2. Everyone uses Recon, everyone hides with a one hit kill sniper rifle, and everyone calls in their magic mortars from anywhere onto anything. It looks like they're trying to make the Recon kit more of a DMR kit than a true sniper, which is probably better, it fits the squad play better as a DMR and a support gunner do the same job, one with high amounts of precision, the other with high amounts of ammo. On a different note, I'm pretty sure the M4A1 will be in the engineer kit because it has a flashlight and will be the counterpart to the AKS-74U, like the M16A4 and AK-74M.

== M249 SAW is actually Mk. 46 Mod 0? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By looking at the handgurads, I noticed that they are sticking out like the Mk. 46 Mod 0's handguards instead of the flat M249 SAW's heatshield. Also, because the weapon is fitted with M145 ECLAN scope, this could be the same model as in Medal of Honor, only it is rendered differently or something like that to fit Battlefield 3's engine. So, could be? --[[User:RaNgeR|RaNgeR]] 03:54, 9 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Yep, it's for sure the Mk 46. Though, it's all one nacho. Glad with the weapon choices they're going with so far. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 10:34, 9 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Yep, there's also some speculation that there'll be multiple types of 4x optics for each weapon, like you could put the Elcan on an M4. But I think it's more likely that each weapon will just have a different model of ACOG-type optic. [[User:Halorocka888|Halorocka888]] 08:27, 12 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The quality of the screenshot is too low to tell if it's an M249 or a Mark 46. The key difference between the two is that the M249 has a magazine well on the side of the receiver for using M16 mags, but the Mark 46 doesn't. You can't really tell if the SAW in this game has a mag well or not. I also want to point out that the SAW in MoH has a magazine well, which would make it an M249. ;) [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 05:06, 10 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

there's a clear model error...the magazine is lodged inside the weapon at an angle and the charging handles are floating above the magazine in midair.&lt;br /&gt;
however, the magazine looks like its of appropriate size and its transparent....would be a nice touch if the bullets inside would actually be visible and move.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
May perhaps point to an extended magazines type system, though you'd expect the studio to realise that the P90 feeds from the rear so this wouldn't function --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 08:09, 12 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are Extended Magazines, you can see them in the loadout window in some of the E3 footage on a PKP Pecheneg. But, what the P90 is likely, is just a pre-alpha mess-up. The magazine is there and properly sized, its' just angled downward into the weapon/barrel. It's not married properly to the P90 and is likely just a glitch that will be fixed.

I just saw the latest video where the M4A1 had a holo-sight and the gas block was removed. Looks like this will be just another unrealistic game after all. But at least the character pressed the BCRB instead of pulling the charging handle.

:I might be a bit annoying to have every game M4 lose its gas block, but it really doesn't matter THAT much, and it makes the scope view clearer. To say that it will be &amp;quot;just another unrealistic game&amp;quot; because of that is silly, just pretend it has one of those super mini gas blocks, you wouldn't even be able to see it anyway.

(Continuously updated) This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwT6x7zEQ8c) shows on the kill-feed that the SVD makes a return for Battlefield 3 at 2:20. At 3:48 you see an enemy in the engineer class holding what appears to be an RPG-7 at 3:48. The kill-feed shows at 4:06 a MP-443 pistol.

== Team Specific Weapons? ==&lt;br /&gt;

Looking at the AKS-74U pictures it looks scarily like that's a US Marine using it on Spetsnaz. As far as I know there'll be unlockables and selectable weapons, but does anyone know if these are team specific or not? I'm personally pretty worried we're going to have a bunch of marines in state of the art gear running around with AK rifles because a bunch of bars say they're the best, or PLR using M4s and 249's, that's as bad, if not worse. --[[User:AmrasCalmacil|AmrasCalmacil]] 17:26, 17 June 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I hope its not side specific, I always hated that considering how two weapons from the same class where completely different and handled different. Most people would end up using unlocked guns that you can use on either side. If you want a game thats realistic as possible, play Operation Flashpoint.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Being a fan of Battlefield 2, which featured faction specific weapons, I'm offended someone is saying me to play another game. I might as well say: If you want a game thats unrealistic as possible, play Call of Duty.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Looks like they call Picatinny Railed M16A4 '''M16A2''' ''again'' *facepalm*. Oh, and that's a weird sniper rifle. Don't they have '''M110''' for that?&lt;br /&gt;
:P.S. And yeah, same goes for '''DAO-12''' (Armsel Striker, duh!). But I would prefer '''Armsel Protecta''' (it's more modern after all ;) ) --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 05:01, 7 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Well I think that the &amp;quot;Mk. II&amp;quot; is the Mk II Mod 0 (SR-25), and that they just threw the text on there because the Mk II will be the default Recon rifle. &lt;br /&gt;
Anyways, I think this 99% confirms that it will be in the game, should it be added to the main page?&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:Ghostdigga|Ghostdigga]] 14:28, 10 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:OH Mk.11, I thought it said Mk.2, and I couldn't figure out what the hell that would be. Yeah, we've seen the SR-25 already in that multiplayer footage, and everything in that video was default. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 17:05, 10 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So MoH had the M110 when it should have had the Mark 11, but BF3 now has the Mark 11 when it should have the M110 (USMC recently dropped the Mark 11 in favor of the M110)? *Facepalm* [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 05:27, 10 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Indeed. Another thing about MoH is that apparently Mark 14 Mod 0 got finished in 2003 and got shipped to Navy SEALs in 2004[http://www.militaryfactory.com/smallarms/detail.asp?smallarms_id=377] thus making it as chronologically incorrect as M110. Devs usually tend to skip the details. Still, the crown of ignorance goes to CoD brand.

==Notes about in-game ACOG scopes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I noticed that there seem to be two separate models of ACOG scopes available in the game, according to the screenshots posted in the article. The M4A1 carbine the player character uses in the 'Faultline' trailer is fitted with a camo-painted TA01NSN ACOG(identifiable by the integral iron sights and lack of a fiber-optic strip along the top) while one of the M16A4's shown in first-person view in the article here is equipped with a TA31F ACOG. This is the second FPS game I've seen to do this, the other being ''[[Project Reality]]'' (itself a mod of ''[[Battlefield 2]]'', coincidentally) which has the TA31F and TA31RCO ACOG models available in it. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 03:44, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:...While in the average FPS, you're lucky if the thing called the ACOG looks like anything in Trijicon's product line. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 03:47, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Making the public in general think every scope is called an ACOG :P Also, in terms of 4x sights, theres the M249s ELCAN, and I'm hoping you can put any optic on anything. One of the DICE guys said there's a crazy amount of optics in BF3. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:26, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Even in COD: Black Ops (a game that takes place in the 60s mind you) they have a scope called a ACOG, even though it's obviously ''not'' a ACOG *rolls eyes*. Game Devs are becoming fails more and more every year. - [[User:Mr. Wolf|Mr. Wolf]] 17:08, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::::It would be nice to see a broader array of optics customizations in FPS games. ''Project Reality'' has a pretty good variety, but you have to switch out your entire class loadout in order to change this, and most weapons only have 1 or 2 optics available aside from iron sights (the M4A1 has the widest variety; having available EOTech, M68 Aimpoint, Kimber Mepro, &amp;amp; ITL MARS red dots as well as both TA31F &amp;amp; TA31RCO ACOGs as mentioned above). [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 12:05, 11 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
More seriously, that thing McNab has is definately supposed to be a carbine with an underbarrel accessory, I can't really see what else it could be. The other guy's weapon is a bit more of a mystery; since it doesn't have any kind of projection for a magazine, I'd guess it's something like a Bizon; can't be a P90, these rigs are for capturing hand positions and his would be completely wrong for that. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 04:36, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wait, actually it does have a magazine, I see a curved MP5-style mag just in front of his finger. So, maybe it's an MP5 with some underbarrel device making the front end all chunky, or one of those MP10 things like in GTAIV. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 04:40, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
LOL Tommy with M203 :) The one on the right really looks like an M14 EBR to me, the mag, handguard, and barrel, but the other one is weird. It looks like an MP5 pistol grip and mag, with a really bulky front, and a stock that looks familiar, bu I just can't place. :P [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:09, 15 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Actually the ACE stock is found on the SPAS 15 as well (which was in Bad Company 1, and Battlefield 2 I think) probably the most likely choice. --[[User:Ghostdigga|Ghostdigga]] 18:48, 18 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== M1014 ==&lt;br /&gt;
It's hard to tell because of the screwed up animation in the alpha, but you load a round into the chamber first, then the tube. EDIT: This is a good thing, I made sound like it wasn't :O [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 02:32, 23 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== M16A4 ==&lt;br /&gt;
It fires semi, burst, AND auto, one of those fancy 360 degree fire selects or something :/ [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 02:32, 23 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:problem?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== New Alpha Gameplay ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the gameplay, I noticed that the front sights are still present when optics are attached, that M16A4 is now burst-fire and that the US LMG is called M249 in-game. Bipod gameplay was shown too. I also spotted the M-416 at 0:55, maybe the M4A1 equivalent of the enemy forces? [[User:Gonzaga|Gonzaga]] 18:45, 24 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Okay, yeah, they made it so the front sight is there, but disappears when aiming, the M16 has burst as well as auto (and semi), and the HK416 is an unlock, ONLY the default weapons are faction based, anyone can use unlocks, but the default ones might be usable by anyone later or something though.

&lt;br /&gt;
:I'm not complaining, I actually like the front sight disappearing system, if it's not there the gun wouldn't work, but if it was, then having an RDS would give you a better field of view. The M16's fire modes aren't too bad, as long as the weapons have the right ammo count, reload properly, and have +1 I'm happy. Things like the player loading it fancy or whatever are okay.

&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::Oh I see. And what do you mean, oh and the RPK? What's wrong with it? [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:07, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::::Has the wrong bipod at the moment, doesn't look like the barrel is long enough to be an RPK either --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 05:31, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::::Well... since it has both synthetic furniture and curved magazine, it is [http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/machine/mg15/rpkm.jpg RPKM] (ignore the magazine color). However in-game description mentions that it uses 5.45x39 ammo, which is used in [http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/machine/mg16/rpk74_02.jpg RPK-74M] that is actually used by Russian Forces. So the point is, DICE should change the magazine model and rename the weapon to '''RPK-74M''' for Russians. That Militia can use whatever they want. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 05:36, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::::I didn't know that, so the curvature of the magazine in an AK/RPK-style weapon can be used to identify the caliber? DICE have clearly given alpha invites to the wrong people, should have gone to the inhabitants of IMFDB. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 05:42, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::::: :D And yeah. The curve gradation for Kalashnikovs' magazines goes as follows: 5.56 &amp;lt; 5.45 &amp;lt; 7.62, with 7.62 curve being particularly distinguishable ;) --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 06:28, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::::I sent Demize a tweet (I made a Twitter accout JUST to send him stuff) that the RPK should be either the RPKM or RPK-74M (as I can't see the mags well enough), and also sent him another one saying the G3 should be the G3A3 :D [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 17:42, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::::::That is dedication to informing the developer their game is wrong, well played. I also sent him a tweet concerning the M145's reticle. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 18:30, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::::::::Very good :D Two problems I've noticed about '''SVD''': First, as already been noticed, is that in-game model of magazine is straight NATO one instead of curved Russian one; second, is that in-game '''PKS-07''' is using optical PSO-1 based reticle instead of its own magnified reflex reticle like this one: [http://www.newphillysports.com/milsurp/pks07reticle.jpg].

== 1911 spotted ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just watched a video and the 1911 is back. This game's version appears to be the MEU model. I can tell from the slide, sights, and hammer. It appears to be the old model with the Springfield Armory slide. [[User:ShootingLiberal|ShootingLiberal]] 23:53, 26 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I can't see the grips, but it appears to be a stock M1911 with a commander-style hammer (the round one, not the MEU one), a silver 3-hole trigger, and a silver barrel. Oh, after Googleing I found that that IS the original version of the MEU :/ http://www.justpistols.co.uk/meu_001.jpg That's an airsoft gun, but it's EXACTLY the one from BF3. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 03:35, 27 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Also, the MEU Pistol is currently designated [http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2009/09/24/m45-close-quarters-combat-pistol/ M45] Pistol ;) So maybe in-game it is some kind of customized M1911 Pistol? :O --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 05:36, 27 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:Awesome, that's two of us now :) [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::So my impressions of the alpha so far are largely positive, not the biggest fan of the map however. Too many narrow corridors that you have to enter to advance, meaning that the defending team can plonk a SAW there and wipe you out as you enter the meat grinder. The weapons feel nice: Plenty of recoil meaning that burst firing is essential. Definitely an improvement gameplay-wise compared to BC2, which wasn't a bad game by any stretch of the imagination. Looking forward to the beta now! \o/ --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 09:46, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Improvement compared to BC2, is obviously. The question is, improvement compared to BF2! :O--[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 10:31, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::I can't really comment on whether it's better than BF2 as I haven't really spent much time on it (5 mins max) but it is a fairly solid FPS in it's own right. One thing that has bothered me thus far is 3D spotting, do not like it at all though, it should be changed for minimap spotting. --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 10:46, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Ah, in that case, if you still have BF2, I would recommend you download and install [http://www.realitymod.com/ Project Reality] mod, which focuses on realistic armed forces. There are people who have BF2 solely for it. And, it has British Army! :D [http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa356/DMasterST/B_Uniform.png Their uniform] and [http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa356/DMasterST/B_Weapons.png their weapons] --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 12:02, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::Yeah and the Canadian Army :D I'll be getting BF2/RM soon. Keep in mind this is one of the smallest map and it's meant to be more infantry focused, they'll be much bigger ones with more vehicles ;) [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 18:10, 28 July 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::The in-game ones have carry handles but I'm sure you knew this, I can live with a few slightly inaccurate icons on the Battlelog though.

&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::::For sure, the IAR/RPK are definitely more accurate than the SAW, the SAW is quite difficult to use at range without deploying the bipod whereas the other two don't have as much recoil.

Some images of the exclusive Spectact kits you get via pre-order, you'll also notice that the Russian assault class soldier is holding an AEK-971&lt;br /&gt;

You do realise its just art , and probably wont be ingame --[[User:LukeWilliams010|LukeWilliams010]]&lt;br /&gt;

:Alright, will wait for confirmation regarding these weapons. Maybe it's just false alarm (and Desert Eagle too). --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 05:49, 8 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Nah, the AEK will most likely be in, and the AK-74M will go to the PLR faction. There's nothing official, but there's the AEK (RU) and 74M(PLR), SKS as a sniper (PLR), T-72 tanks (PLR), and MP lines recorded in English, Russian and Farsi, that's confermation enough. I've seen no evidence of the XM8, but who knows, they did say there's 10 times the unlocks as BC2... [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 06:30, 8 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Russian Forces clearly used AK-74M on Operation Metro map. The same is expected from final release. As for PLR, there are only silhouettes, and as such it's unclear which AK is used. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 06:50, 8 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::The AEK will probably be a universal unlock for all factions if it is indeed in the final game (which I believe it will be, doubt they'd use a weapon in artwork and not include it in-game) --[[User:Chrausis|Chrausis]] 10:01, 8 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::There most likely will be no AEK in final game. Those renders showing specact skins are pretty dated.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Please no XM8, at least not in the SP. If it's an MP only gun, I could care less whether it's in or not, though. I'm buying this for the SP, which I'm hoping will be at least semi-realistic. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 01:18, 12 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

==M16A3==&lt;br /&gt;
Demize99 tweeted that the M16A4 has been renamed to A3. Though we don't know if it still has all three modes, I'm thinking it doesn't. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 11:49, 11 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hmm. Full Auto M16A4 seems more plausible to me than Picatinny Railed M16A3. Maybe call it M16A5? xD --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 12:57, 11 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Nope, the A3 is actually an A4 with full auto, I thought it was an A2-style for a long time, but looks it up, its hard to find good descriptions, but the A3 and A4 are the same except burst/auto. No one on this site gets that because this site calls every A3-style an A4 with an A2 lower. Why? Because that's what armourers built them with, since they don't have A3s. In games the weapon is whatever it's meant to be because it's not &amp;quot;built&amp;quot; on anything. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 13:09, 11 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Ah, now that's funny. Turns out to be true[http://www.armyproperty.com/Equipment-Info/M16A3-A4.htm][http://world.guns.ru/assault/usa/m16-m16a1-m16a2-m16a3-e.html].

&lt;br /&gt;
::::Hey, those are the two sites I found! I just couldn't find them again :P Anyway, look at the description on the first site, it's worded very old, saying things like identical to A2, but also same as A4. That's actually the most info I've seen on an A3 in one place, adding to the confusion, since there isn't good info around. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 15:16, 11 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::No, Alex is wrong and so are the two websites Masterius linked to. The M16A3 is a full auto A2 (only used by SEALs and Seabees in very limited numbers), NOT a full auto A4. IMFDB policy is to identify a weapon visually, not by what the game calls it. In terms of A3 vs A4, the M16 in this game is intended to be an A4, so that's what it should be called. At least for the moment anyway. If it turns out the devs decide to axe the burst mode, we can classify it a C7A1, but until we know more, it should stay listed as an A4. I'm changing it back. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 01:11, 12 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Uhm, Modern Firearms is respectable source. If you are claiming that it is not that means you have a better one? And the weapon can't be C7A1 since C7A1 is [http://world.guns.ru/assault/can/diemaco-c7a1-c7a2-c-e.html Model C7FT] (Railed Model 715 itself) and Full Auto M16A4 is [http://www.colt.com/mil/M16_2.asp Model 901] (Full Auto Railed Model 705 itself). And there are differences between 705 and 715[http://www.biggerhammer.net/ar15/variants/]. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 03:25, 12 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::The first A3s had A2 uppers, but were later (and still are) issued with railed uppers, that's where people get confused. A3 = Rail. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:02, 12 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I do have a better source. It's called Defense Industry Daily [http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/the-usas-m-16-rifle-purchases-04517/]. Additionally, if you take a look at the M16A2 section of the [[M16 rifle series]] page, it says the exact same thing. I also never said MF ''wasn't'' a respectable source, but that doesn't alter the fact that it's wrong in this case. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 05:25, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:''Other MIL-STD-1913 rails can be found on the front grips '''et. al.''' of the '''A3s''' and A4s, where they mount useful items like flashlights, laser pointers, grip pods, et. al.''&lt;br /&gt;

::Like I said, the very first A3s had A2 uppers, and after that they had rails. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 07:17, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Put it this way, the only times it says something about not having a top rail, it doesn't. What I mean is, it always says something really vague like &amp;quot;full auto version of the A2&amp;quot;, never mentioning specifics. I have not yet read somewhere that says that the A3 has a fixed carry handle, but have seen plenty that say the opposite. The problem was someone decided a long time ago that this site was for guns that are in movies only, not a gun wiki, so since the A3 is not in any civvie hands, and therefore not in any movies, it shouldn't be mentioned. All &amp;quot;A3&amp;quot;s in movies are A4s with A2 lowers, that is what the armourer used. However with the addition of newer weapons, and therefore newer entries, and the addition of games, where the guns don't really exist and therefore ARE anything, things are being added that never were before. Correct me if I'm wrong but the Mk.18 is only a military weapon, right? That means that, say, in the first Transformers movie Josh Duhamel's Mk.18 wouldn't have been a real Mk.18, but some Civvie M4 with a short barrel and such, made to look exactly the same as one. But that doesn't make it a Mk.18, however it IS listed as such. I may be wrong and it might actually be a Mk.18, but then Canadian C7-series is a better example: NO civvies have them. Period. But it still has an entry, as it is in Reality Mod, among a few others. Now we see the problem with not having an M16A3 entry: there might not be any in civvie hands, but there are some in games, like BF3, but COD4 singleplayer comes to mind as well, and I'm sure there are others. Hmm, I guess what this comes down to is we need an M16A3 listing on the M16 page. All of them should be listed, even if the only info is the name, a sentence about the weapon, and mention that it has never been in anything, otherwise we get stuff like everyone on the site getting false info about a particular weapon, and this happens. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 16:14, 13 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::That ''is'' specific. &amp;quot;Full auto version of the A2&amp;quot; means it's externally identical to the A2, but has fully automatic. I don't see how that's vague. If you've got a credible source saying A3s are &amp;quot;now issued&amp;quot; with flat top uppers, I'd like to see it. But if you look at the pattern of M16 rifle development, it's very likely that such a modification would bear a designation other than A3 (the only two exceptions to this in the platform's history were the Air Force's 11.5&amp;quot; barreled XM177s and when the Army dropped the Model 777 M4 for the Model 920 M4. Josh Duhamal used an M933 in Transformers, not a Mark 18. Mark 18-type carbines with 10.3&amp;quot; or 10.5&amp;quot; barrels can be had by anyone with proper licensing. But the reason we have Mark 18 mock-ups in movies listed as Mark 18s is because, like I already pointed out, it's IMFDB policy to identify the weapon on a visual basis. If it ''looks'' like a Mark 18, we ''call it'' a Mark 18 unless some other way of concretely identifying the weapon (such as an armorer ID) comes along. Your argument about civilian acquisition is a dead end since armorers like MPM are civilians, yet have fully automatic M4s, AK-47s, M60s, and so on in their possession. The only games I've played with full auto M16A4s are CoD4 and MoH, the pages for both of which identify the rifle as an M16''A4''. If you want an A3 category added, either take a look at the [[Talk:M16_rifle_series#Do_well_really_need_to_have_an_.22A2.22_and_.22A3.22_category.3F|M16 rifle talk page to see why it was deleted]] (where MPM himself states that the M16A3 has the same upper receiver as the A2) or come to the forum and state your case as to why said category should be reinstated. But as per IMFDB policy, the M16 on this page should be classified as an A4. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 00:14, 14 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The M39 refers to the M14 variant used by the Marines [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M39_Enhanced_Marksman_Rifle (this)]. And the Groza bullpup was actually the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-91 A-91] (not the 9A-91 from BC2... Russian weapon designations are confusing)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::A few things; first, it looks like this list is a little dated, as Demize confirmed both M16s, but even though details might have changed, I bet this is a 100% list. Second, remember this doesn't include stuff like the M320 (as it's a Gadget in terms of game), and mounted weapons. Third, I'm assuming the M39 (M14) will be semi only, as only it and the SKS are in the Battle Rifle section, with the G3 moved to Assault Rifles. Similarly, I'm betting the Glock 18 and Beretta 93R will be auto and burst only, otherwise the Glock 17 and M9 would be pretty useless. Fourth, notice that there is a P90 AND a P90TR. I'm thinking if you attach an RDS to the P90TR, it becomes the standard one, like COD4's MP5SD. Lastly, what's a T44 pistol? I did a quick search and all I got was this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/de/T44.jpg Oh, also, I'm totally using the M82 with irons, just for kicks :) [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 19:49, 16 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I'm thinking the &amp;quot;T44&amp;quot; might be the sidearm for Iranian forces, like the KH2002 will be their assault rifle. I don't know what it could be referring to, though; as far as I know, Iran uses P226 copies as their standard sidearm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This looks ''really'' suspicious to me. No G36E (as was expected from BF2 (L85 too)), no SG 550 (as was confirmed by Demize), no multiple M16 (wasn't that said by Demize?), &amp;quot;Battle Rifles&amp;quot; actually being Marksman Rifle (M39) and Semi-Automatic Carbine (SKS), several weapons being ported from BC2 (AEK-971, A-91, PP-2000, Saiga-20K, MP-412) instead of BF2 (Bizon or Vityaz, Saiga-12K) for no reason; Beretta 93R and Glock 18 are actually law enforcement automatic pistols and will overshadow regular pistols... And T44? WW2 prototype gun being put in pistols?&lt;br /&gt;

Been reading and watching videoa and they all have the M4A1 listed as a carbine. Does anyone know if the M4A1 fires full auto, three round bursts, or a single shot when fired?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The M4A1 is a carbine that is full auto or semi, just like real life, is that wierd? [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 14:44, 19 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Carbines ==&lt;br /&gt;
What makes me really happy is they got the term Carbine right; the M4A1 is an M16 Carbine, the AKS-74U is an AK-74 Carbine, the SCAR-H CQC is a SCAR Carbine, the G36C is a G36 Carbine, the SG553 is a SG550 Carbine, and, well, you could call the A-91 an AKM Carbine I guess. That's also why the relatively short HK416 is in the Assault Rifle section and not the Carbine one: it's not a Carbine. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 14:52, 19 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:'''Trivia Information''':&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:IRL in addition to Assault Rifle and Carbine category, there is also so called Sub-Carbine category (that is, shorter than Carbine). Four of the above mentioned pairs have three guns in these categories (and three of these four pairs even have additionally Automatic Rifle/Light Machine Gun variant but that's a different story). And here is the list:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:M4 Commando &amp;lt; M4 &amp;lt; M16&lt;br /&gt;
:AKS-74U &amp;lt; AK-105 &amp;lt; AK-74(M)&lt;br /&gt;
:G36C &amp;lt; G36K(E) &amp;lt; G36(E)&lt;br /&gt;
:SG 553 &amp;lt; SG 551 &amp;lt; SG 550&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:And to which category HK416 belongs, [http://www.hk-usa.com/military_products/hk416_specs.asp depends on the variant]. Quite a list, isn't it? ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:And while AKM didn't have official carbine (there was [http://www.red-alliance.net/forum/index.php?topic=11481.0 a prototype] and that's it), SKS can be considered one somewhat :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Maybe that was interesting to read :) --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 16:45, 19 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Again... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What's with the people using this &amp;quot;fact sheet&amp;quot; to clutter the main page with weapon titles. Can't they wait for more substantial material before adding stuff? --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 15:02, 20 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Agreed; pages that are just lists of weapons without pictures or really any info look terrible, let's wait for them to show up. The people who care can find it here on the talk page, or Google :/ [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 17:20, 20 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And what is wrong with people putting confirmed weapons on the page ? ufb&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Leaked info is not allowed, and entries with no pics or info aren't very much liked either. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 19:29, 23 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==UMP==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
you can see it in a video from nvidia, the player to the right of the interview, you can see him using a UMP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiCNdEYCtgs&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
unkown what calibre, but im just gonna assume its UMP45 --[[User:Sike|Sike]] 06:38, 21 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==HK416==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
another video from nvidia.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUyIIIKta44&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
if you pause at 0:30 it looks like the HK416--[[User:Sike|Sike]] 06:42, 21 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:M27 IAR, to be specific. Based on the HK416, yes, but not a normal HK416. [[User:Spartan198|Spartan198]] 12:25, 21 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:: Well the Hk146 is in, it appeared on the battlelog stat page. --[[User:Sike|Sike]] 09:25, 22 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Weird Weapon ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is that weapon the guy starts using at 2:24, in this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiCNdEYCtgs ? It looks like an AS VAL, but that optic setup is weird. I wish they sticked to the real life russian optics, instead of creating rail-attaching versions. E.g.: The PK-AS (russian holographic) is actually offset to the left side of the gun, not aligned with the bore or mounted on a rail.[[User:Gonzaga|Gonzaga]] 08:20, 21 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Maybe it's quite hard to get hands on real Russian weapons in Sweden, so work is done with what's available... Oh, and PK-AS isn't holographic sight, it's reflex sight. --[[User:Masterius|Masterius]] 10:56, 21 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:It might be the VSS. You can use iron sights on a sniper rifle so they might allow you to use reflex and holographic sights as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:There's no VSS, there's a VAL, but this guy's an Engineer, so it doesn't matter either way. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 12:14, 22 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fact Sheet ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People, while it has been confirmed that the fact sheet is indeed official, it's also been confirmed that it '''IS NOT A FINAL LIST''', it only shows the equipment available '''SO FAR'''. So don't worry, I'm sure many more equipment options will come (I hope these include an MP5). [[User:Gonzaga|Gonzaga]] 20:34, 22 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, Demize wouldn't confirm whether the Karkand guns will be able to be used in standard BF3, but the way he said it seemed to hint they might, so I'm betting we'll see the MP5 and PP-19 Bizon. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 21:26, 22 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gonzaga that's pretty much false hope , because there not going to release an official fact sheet and then add &amp;quot;many more guns&amp;quot; its not even wishful thinking its just stupid.and Alex when somethings is unconfirmed that doesn't mean its automatically going to be in the game, and if its anything like bfbc2 which it is, the guns will be seperate like the vientnam expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== who removed the glock 18 ==&lt;br /&gt;
simple as , who removed it when it has been confirmed , obviously this person doesn't have many chromazones.So we'll have to forgive him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== SKS has a plastic stock ==&lt;br /&gt;
Demize confirmed. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 13:36, 23 August 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Handguns=&lt;br /&gt;
==Beretta M9==&lt;br /&gt;
In the beginning of the single-player mission that was shown during gameplay footage, a Marine who is sitting in front of the player has a [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92F/FS|Beretta M9]] pistol holstered to his vest. It can also be seen in the multiplayer footage of E3 that the player is reloading his M9. Another note of interest is that unlike [[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]] and [[Medal of Honor]], the M9's magazine has 15 rounds + 1 in the chamber like it should be. An M9 fitted with a suppressor can be seen in the Co-op trailer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Bf3_pistol_m9.png|thumb|none|650px|A Beretta M9 holstered to a Marine's vest's is circled in red. Also note that the same U.S. Marine is inaccurately shown to have a U.S. Flag Patch on his sleeve. In reality, U.S. Marines do not wear flag or unit patches on their sleeves.]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==MP-443 Grach==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Yarygin_PYa#MP-443_Grach|MP-443]] apparently returns from Bad Company 2, as it's briefly visible in the multiplayer kill list in the &amp;quot;Operation Métro&amp;quot; trailer.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:MP433Grach.jpg|none|thumb|350px|MP-443 Grach - 9x19mm.]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Glock 17==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==M1911==&lt;br /&gt;
M1911 was present in Battlefield 3 alpha version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sub-machine Guns=&lt;br /&gt;
==FN P90TR==&lt;br /&gt;
An [[FN P90#P90TR|FN P90TR (Triple Rail)]] can be seen in E3 coverage from IGN.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:FN_P90_Triple_Rail_(TR).jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|FN P90TR - 5.7x28mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:battp90.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Soldier wielding the FN P90TR]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Assault Rifles=&lt;br /&gt;
==Colt M16A4==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M16 rifle series|M16A4 rifle]] was shown during early gameplay footage but was lacking rear iron sights. This is because the game was still under early alpha development. It was later confirmed that the M16A4 is no longer in use within the game, and has since been designated as the M16A3 to enable the full auto firing capability that the previous weapon had. The developers decided to do this to make a more accurate representation of the weapon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M16A4withANPEQ&amp;amp;ACOG.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M16A4 MWS (Modular Weapon System) with RAS rails installed, AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, RIS foregrip, and Trijicon 4x32 ACOG scope - 5.56x45mm. This is the USMC style setup.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:M16BF3Teaser.jpg|600px|thumb|none|The Marine on the top middle of the screen, is carrying an M16A4 during the briefing scene; note the lack of rear iron sight or even optical sight.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:Eapwned_m16a4.jpg|600px|thumb|none|A demonstration of the character's movement animation, also using an M16A4 with carrying handle on it. You can also note a Magpul attached to the magazine.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M4nosight.jpg|thumb|none|600px|In this picture, it seems that the developers have removed the front gas block like in '''Call of Duty'''. So in this case, the rifle would not properly function like in reality. This has since been fixed by having the front sight disappear when aiming.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Colt M4A1==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M4A1 Carbine]] is commonly seen in gameplay footage which is also in the hands of the main character. Because of the alpha stages, the in-game [[M4A1]] can be seen fitted with iron sights, EOtech 551 Holographic sight, Trijicon 4x32 ACOG scope, Surefire Universal Weaponlight, AN/PEQ-2 laser designator, Magpul Ranger Plate and an unknown stock (possibly a painted LE stock or Magpul CTR stock).  Two different &amp;quot;reload-from-empty&amp;quot; animations currently exist.  The &amp;quot;Fault Line&amp;quot; trailers had the player rack the charging handle, while the Operation Metro trailer, and the PS3 Fault Line gameplay from the June 16th, 2011 edition of Jimmy Fallon's Late Night show had the player use the bolt release button.  Another thing to note, the M4 depicted in the Operation Metro trailer has full iron sights and has not been seen with an optic. Not to be mistaken with the M16A3 in the trailers, which is lacking a front sight post/gas block with the ACOG. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:ColtM4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M4A1 Carbine with M68 Aimpoint red dot sight - 5.56x45mm]]&lt;br /&gt;

The FN MK 17, or [[FN SCAR|SCAR-H]] can be seen in the new Caspian Border gameplay trailer.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Machine Guns=&lt;br /&gt;
==M240B Machine Gun==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[FN MAG#M240 Machine Gun|M240B]] appears in the hands of some U.S. Marines, and in the hands of the player, fitted with an EOtech 551 Holographic sight. The trailer shows the weapon as having a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M240-1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M240B with newer style lower handguard (designed to attach RIS rails via hex nut) - 7.62x51mm NATO]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:BF3TeaserM249.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The player uses an M240B fitted with an EOTech holographic sight while engaging multiple enemies in the teaser video.]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Mk. 46 Mod 0/M249 SAW==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M249_SAW#Mk_46_Mod_0|Mk. 46 Mod 0]]/[[M249 SAW]] was seen in E3 multiplayer footage. Because of the sticking out rail on the top of the handguard, this likely to be the Mk. 46 Mod 0.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Mk46.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Mk 46 Mod 0 light machine gun - 5.56x45mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3-M249.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mk. 46 Mod/M249 SAW used by the player in E3 multiplayer footage. Note the M145 ELCAN scope.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==QJY-88==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from Bad Company 2, once again called the &amp;quot;Type 88 LMG&amp;quot;. It appears in the material marketing the pre-order rewards.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Type88gpmg2.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Norinco QJY-88 - 5.8x42mm]]&lt;br /&gt;

=Sniper Rifles= &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==M39 EMR (Enhanced Marksman Rifle)==&lt;br /&gt;
The M39 was revealed in EA's new fact-sheet however, it has been spotted in beta gameplay trials and leaked gameplay videos.It features selectable fire modes,it appears when first unlocked as a basic model with iron sights but can be fitted with most of the games accessories.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M-39EMR.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle with Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:SR25.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Knight's Armament SR-25 (known as Mk11 Mod 0 in USMC and US Navy service) with suppressor and Harris bipod - 7.62x51mm NATO]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3-9A91.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==SKS==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[SKS rifle|SKS]] is seen mentioned in pre-order information.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Simonov-Russian-SKS45.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Russian Simonov Type 45 aka the Russian SKS rifle - 7.62x39mm]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==SVD==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[SVD Dragunov]] is briefly visible in the multiplayer kill list in the &amp;quot;Operation Métro&amp;quot; trailer.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:SVD Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|500px|SVD Dragunov sniper rifle - 7.62x54mm R]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Shotguns=&lt;br /&gt;
==Armsel Striker==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Armsel_Striker_and_variants#Armsel_Striker|Armsel Striker]] is included, identifiable by the winding key on the front of the drum magazine. The weapon is referred to as the &amp;quot;DAO-12&amp;quot; in material advertising the game's pre-order rewards, as it was in [[Battlefield 2]]; this stands for &amp;quot;double action only, 12 gauge&amp;quot; and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Striker.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Armsel Striker Shotgun - 12 gauge]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3_DAO12_Warfare_Pack.jpg|thumb|none|600px|&amp;quot;DAO-12&amp;quot; pre-order image. Note the Picatinny rail added to the top of the receiver.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Launchers=&lt;br /&gt;
==M136 AT4==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M136 AT4]] appears in the hands of US Marines. In the trailer, it seems to have a pistol grip instead of having the trigger on the back of the weapon behind the sights.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:AT-4Launcher.jpg‎|thumb|none|500px|M136 AT4 - 84mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:BF3TeaserAT4.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The M136 AT4 is in the hand of the player as the Marines are engaging a sniper hidden in the hotel room from the rooftop.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The [[Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW]] appears in &amp;quot;EA PWNED&amp;quot; Battlefield 3 video, demonstration the game's destruction engine.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Mk153SMAW.jpg‎|thumb|none|500px|Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW - 83mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:BF3-Launcher.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

__TOC__&amp;lt;br clear=&amp;quot;all&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Handguns=&lt;br /&gt;
==Beretta M9==&lt;br /&gt;
In the beginning of the new &amp;quot;Fault Line Episode 1&amp;quot; video, a Marine who is sitting in front of the player has a [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92F/FS|Beretta M9]] pistol holstered to his vest. It can also be seen in the multiplayer footage of E3 that the player is reloading his M9. Another note of interest is that unlike [[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]] and [[Medal of Honor]], the [[M9]]'s magazine has 15 rounds + 1 in the chamber). An M9 fitted with a suppressor can be seen in the Co-op trailer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M9-pistolet.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Beretta M9 - 9x19mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Bf3_pistol_m9.png|thumb|none|650px|A Beretta M9 holstered to a Marine's vest's is circled in red. Also note that the same US Marine is inaccurately shown to have a US Flag Patch on his sleeve. US Marines do not wear flag or unit patches.]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:bf3m92.JPG|thumb|none|650px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==MP-443 Grach==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Yarygin_PYa#MP-443_Grach|MP-443]] apparently returns from Bad Company 2, as it's briefly visible in the multiplayer kill list in the &amp;quot;Operation Métro&amp;quot; trailer.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:MP433Grach.jpg|none|thumb|350px|MP-443 Grach - 9x19mm.]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Glock 17==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Glock 17]] is shown in an official screenshot for the Battlelog.&lt;br /&gt;
[http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/battlefield_5F00_bad_5F00_company/2.jpg Glock 17 picture]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Glock173rdGen.jpg|thumb|none|350px|A Generation 3 Glock 17 - 9x19mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Glock 18==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Glock 17]] has been confirmed in an official factsheet&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==M1911==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Sub-machine Guns=&lt;br /&gt;
==FN P90TR==&lt;br /&gt;
An [[FN P90#P90TR|FN P90TR (Triple Rail)]] can be seen in E3 coverage from IGN.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:FN_P90_Triple_Rail_(TR).jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|FN P90TR - 5.7x28mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:battp90.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Soldier wielding the FN P90TR]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Assault Rifles=&lt;br /&gt;
==Colt M16A4==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M16 rifle series|M16A4 rifle]] is shown during gameplay footage. In the early footage it has no rear iron sight. This is because the game was still in early alpha development. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M16A4withANPEQ&amp;amp;ACOG.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M16A4 MWS (Modular Weapon System) with RAS rails installed, AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, RIS foregrip, and Trijicon 4x32 ACOG scope - 5.56x45mm. This is the USMC style setup.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:M16BF3Teaser.jpg|600px|thumb|none|One of the Marines on the top right is carrying what looks like an M16A4 during the briefing scene.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:Eapwned_m16a4.jpg|600px|thumb|none|They appear to have put a carrying handle on it.]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M4nosight.jpg|thumb|none|600px| They seem to have removed the front gas block like in ''Call of Duty''. The rifle would not properly function like this in reality. This has since been fixed by having the front sight disappear when aiming.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Colt M4A1==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[M4A1 Carbine]] is commonly seen in gameplay footage which is also in the hands of the main character. Because of the alpha stages, the in-game [[M4A1]] can be seen fitted with iron sights, EOtech 551 Holographic sight, Trijicon 4x32 ACOG scope, Surefire Universal Weaponlight, AN/PEQ-2 laser designator, Magpul Ranger Plate and an unknown stock (possibly a painted LE stock or Magpul CTR stock).  Two different &amp;quot;reload-from-empty&amp;quot; animations currently exist.  The &amp;quot;Fault Line&amp;quot; trailers had the player rack the charging handle, while the Operation Metro trailer, and the PS3 Fault Line gameplay from the June 16th, 2011 edition of Jimmy Fallon's Late Night show had the player use the bolt release button.  Another thing to note, the M4 depicted in the Operation Metro trailer has full iron sights and has not been seen with an optic. Not to be mistaken with the M16A3 in the trailers, which is lacking a front sight post/gas block with the ACOG. &lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:ColtM4.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M4A1 Carbine with M68 Aimpoint red dot sight - 5.56x45mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[image:M4BF3Teaser02.jpg‎|600px|thumb|none|The M4A1 is clearly shown in the hand of the player as the Marines are about to perform an entry.]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=Machine Guns=&lt;br /&gt;
==M240B Machine Gun==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[FN MAG#M240 Machine Gun|M240B]] appears in the hands of some U.S. Marines, and in the hands of the player, fitted with an EOtech 551 Holographic sight. The trailer shows the weapon as having a deployable bipod which can be used to increase accuracy during prolonged firing, at the cost of player mobility.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:M240-1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M240B with newer style lower handguard (designed to attach RIS rails via hex nut) - 7.62x51mm NATO]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:2401.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Full view of the M240B as seen in the recent Fault Line 3 trailer]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:Pecheneg.jpg|thumb|500px|none|PKP Pecheneg machine gun with ammo box - 7.62x54mm R]]&lt;br /&gt;

The [[M249_SAW#Mk_46_Mod_0|Mk. 46 Mod 0]]/[[M249 SAW]] was seen in E3 multiplayer footage. Because of the sticking out rail on the top of the handguard, this likely to be the Mk. 46 Mod 0.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Mk46.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Mk 46 Mod 0 light machine gun - 5.56x45mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3-M249.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mk. 46 Mod/M249 SAW used by the player in E3 multiplayer footage. Note the M145 ELCAN scope.]]&lt;br /&gt;

The [[Norinco QJY-88]] returns from Bad Company 2, once again called the &amp;quot;Type 88 LMG&amp;quot;. It appears in the material marketing the pre-order rewards.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Type88gpmg2.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Norinco QJY-88 - 5.8x42mm]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3_Type88_Warfare_Pack.jpg|thumb|none|600px]]&lt;br /&gt;

=Shotguns=&lt;br /&gt;
==Armsel Striker==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[Armsel_Striker_and_variants#Armsel_Striker|Armsel Striker]] is included, identifiable by the winding key on the front of the drum magazine. The weapon is referred to as the &amp;quot;DAO-12&amp;quot; in material advertising the game's pre-order rewards, as it was in [[Battlefield 2]]; this stands for &amp;quot;double action only, 12 gauge&amp;quot; and is a ''description'' of the weapon rather than a correct name for it.&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:Striker.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Armsel Striker Shotgun - 12 gauge]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:BF3_DAO12_Warfare_Pack.jpg|thumb|none|600px|&amp;quot;DAO-12&amp;quot; pre-order image. Note the Picatinny rail added to the top of the receiver.]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:AT-4Launcher.jpg‎|thumb|none|500px|M136 AT4 - 84mm]]&lt;br /&gt;

[[Image:BF3-Launcher.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
