'''''Band of Brothers''''' is the 2001 [[HBO]] World War II miniseries produced by [[Tom Hanks]] and [[Steven Spielberg]]. Based on the best-selling book by the late historian Stephen Ambrose, the 10-part miniseries followed the men of "Easy" Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th PIR (Parachute Infantry Regiment) of the 101st Airborne Division from their basic training, through their jump into Normandy on D-Day and up until the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest. [[HBO]], Spielberg, and Hanks would also chronicle America's involvement in the War in the Pacific in 2010's ''[[The Pacific]]''.

=Allied Weapons=
==Handguns==
===Colt M1911A1===
The [[M1911A1]] was the standard sidearm of US Forces during World War II. Issued to officers, NCOs and those in positions where a rifle or carbine was not desirable, the pistol quickly became a favored item among Allied troops because of its stopping power. The M1911A1 is seen in various episodes of ''Band of Brothers''. In "Currahee" (Ep.1), it is the main weapon of choice for Capt. Herbert M. Sobel ([[David Schwimmer]]). David Webster ([[Eion Bailey]]) threatens a German baker with one in "Why We Fight" (Ep.9). In "Points" (Ep.10), Capt. Ronald Spiers ([[Matthew Settle]]) uses his M1911A1 to threaten both a German doctor and the drunk American soldier who shot Chuck Grant. Joe Leibgott ([[Ross McCall]]) uses an M1911A1 to shoot an ex-Concentration Camp Commandant in "Points" (Ep.10).

==Submachine Guns==
===M1A1 Thompson===
Also known as the "Tommy gun" or "Fast gun", the [[M1A1 Thompson]] was the standard issue submachine gun for US Forces in WWII. As such, many of Easy Company's officers and NCOs are shown carrying the Thompson as their standard weapon. Notable paratroopers who carry the weapon include Lt. (Later Capt.) Ronald Speirs ([[Matthew Settle]]), Lt. Harry Welsh ([[Rick Warden]]), Lt. Lynn "Buck" Compton ([[Neal McDonough]]), Sgt. William "Wild Bill" Guarnere ([[Frank John Hughes]]), and Sgt. Johnny Martin ([[Dexter Fletcher]]).

[[File:ToyeTommyGUN.jpg|none|thumb|601px|In "Day of Days" (Ep.2), Sgt. Joe Toye ([[Kirk Acevedo]]) points his Thompson at a Heer artillery man surrendering during the Brecourt Manor assault. Note that Toye's buttstock has been broken off by the stick grenade which detonated right beside him shortly before this. This detail is covered in the book. However, it states that Toye was armed with an M1 Garand which got its stock blown off, not a Thompson M1A1. Why this change was made in the series is unknown, but it's quite possibly because the Thompson buttstock was easily detachable via screw and likely to simulate Toye's broken weapon stock.]]
[[File:ToyeTommyGUNnostock2.jpg|none|thumb|601px|In "Day of Days" (Ep.2), Toye fires his broken Thompson during the assault.]]
[[Image:Bob3tm1a1.jpg|none|thumb|600px|During a flashback scene in "Carentan" (Ep.3), Lt. Ronald Speirs ([[Matthew Settle]]) raises his Thompson M1A1 to execute a group of German prisoners. In the book "Band of Brothers", a photo of the real Speirs shows him holding an M1928A1 Thompson.]]

===M3A1 "Grease Gun"===
The [[M3A1 "Grease Gun"]] was the cheap, inexpensive replacement for the Thompson Sub Machine Gun; It is only shown in the hands of Roy Cobb ([[Craig Heaney]]). The use of the later M3A1 variant as opposed to the original M3 is anachronistic for the earlier episodes where they are fighting in France and Holland, as it was not introduced until December 1944.

==Rifles / Carbines==
===M1903A3 Springfield===
Alton More uses an [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A3 Rifle|M1903A3 Springfield Rifle]] as his primary weapon, although he is never seen firing it. Another paratrooper uses an M1903A3 during the Carentan counter attack.

[[File:M1903A3BASTONGE.jpg|none|thumb|600px|Moore's Springfield in the machine gun foxhole during the attack in "Bastogne" (Ep. 6).]]

===M1903A4 Springfield (Without scope)===
Interestingly, Smokey Gordon ([[Ben Caplan]]) carries an [[M1903 Springfield#M1903A4 Springfield Rifle|M1903A4 Springfield]] without a scope. Mainly for the lack of a front sight, along with a scope mount when Smokey turns his back. He might have retrieved the weapon while fighting with the 502nd. The scope might have been damaged for it to be removed, most likely due to the drop. This would make the rifle almost impossible to fire accurately.

[[Image:BoBM1903A3Springfield.jpg|none|thumb|600px|The M1903A4 Springfield is seen slung on the back of Pvt. Gordon ([[Ben Caplan]]), who is also carrying an Browning M1919A4.]]

[[Image:M1903Barrel.jpg|none|thumb|600px|The barrel is now clearly shown on the right. Notice the front sight missing, distinguishing it from an M1903A3. ]]

===M1 Garand===
Standard issue rifle of the US military during WWII, many of Easy Company's paratroopers are shown carrying the [[M1 Garand]] as their standard weapon. Most notable are Lieutenant (Later Captain/Major) Richard "Dick" Winters ([[Damian Lewis]]), Shifty Powers ([[Peter Youngblood Hills]]) and Joseph Liebgott ([[Ross McCall]]) and Patrick O'Keefe ([[Matt Hickey]]). The Garand can be seen with and without a bayonet.

===M1A1 Carbine===
The paratrooper version of the M1, identified as the [[M1 Carbine#M1A1 Carbine|M1A1 Paratrooper Carbine]] which has the distinct collapsible buttstock and handgrips, is shown extensively throughout the series most notably in the hands of Donald Malarkey ([[Scott Grimes]]), Carwood Lipton ([[Donnie Wahlberg]]), Warren "Skip" Muck ([[Richard Speight, Jr.]]), Lt. Norman Dike ([[Peter O'Meara]]), George Luz ([[Rick Gomez]]), and Lt. (Later Capt.) Lewis Nixon ([[Ron Livingston]]). Originally issued to non-combat personnel or those who needed a compact weapon, the M1 Carbine was never meant to be a front-line weapon, nevertheless it was ideal for Airborne troops for its small frame and its compactness.

===M1919A6===
The [[Browning M1919A6]] variant with stock and bipod is seen carried and used primarily by Burton 'Pat' Christensen ([[Michael Fassbender]]). It is incorrectly a post WWII model fitted with the conical flash hider/muzzle booster.

===Browning M2HB===
The [[Browning M2HB]] heavy machine gun can be seen throughout the series. The weapon is usually mounted on vehicles such as M4 Sherman tanks as seen in "Carentan" (Ep.3) or the M8 Greyhound Armored Car in "Why We Fight" (Ep.9). Also making a prominent appearance, especially in "The Last Patrol" (Ep.8) is the M51 Quad Mount which, though designed primarily for anti-aircraft use, had a devastating effect on ground targets and was available in either the towed or vehicle mounted versions (designated the ''M16 Quad Mount''). In real life, Easy Company actually 'liberated' a M16 Quad some time after Bastogne which they took with them into Germany.

===M1A1 Rocket Launcher "Bazooka"===
The [[M1_Bazooka|M1 Rocket Launcher]], affectionately known as the "Bazooka", was the standard anti-tank weapon for the US military during WWII. The Bazooka was excellent against bunkers and buildings, though its effectiveness against the more heavily armored German tanks is debatable. The weapon primarily seen in the series is the [[M1A1 "Bazooka"|M1A1 variant]], noted by the single grip. General Eisenhower remarked that "the Atom Bomb, Jeep, C-47 Sky Train and the Bazooka were the four weapons that won the war". The bazooka was copied by the Germans as the '[[Panzerschreck]]' launcher from a M1 Bazooka captured in North Africa. Generally operated by a two man crew (one gunner, one loader) crews quickly figured out that they needed to hit the side, rear or belly armor of armored vehicles, as shown in the episode "Carentan" (the episode also shows how the bazooka rounds would simply deflect off the heavy frontal armor). The bazooka makes notable appearances in the series, being used by Sgt. Charles E. "Chuck" Grant ([[Nolan Hemmings]]) in the episode "Replacements" taking out a German machine gun and by John McGrath ([[Stephen Martin Walters]]) and Harry Welsh ([[Rick Warden]]) in the episode "Carentan" disabling a German StuG III assault gun.

===Mk II Hand Grenade===
The [[Mk II Hand Grenade]] is used by several paratroopers in the series. Lt. Harry Welsh ([[Rick Warden]]) is seen using one to take out an MG42 team during the battle of Carentan. Paratroopers are seen piling [[Mk II Hand Grenade]]s onto a enemy-made rock slide in an attempt to blow a hole in the roadblock.

===M2 Mortar===
The [[M2 Mortar]] is one of the close support weapons used by Easy Company. The members of the [[M2 Mortar]] team primarily seen were Sgt. Donald Malarkey ([[Scott Grimes]]) and Sergeant Warren "Skip" Muck ([[Richard Speight Jr.]]) and Private First Class Alex Penkala (Tim Matthews).

=Axis Weapons=
==Handguns==
===Luger P08===
A standard sidearm of German Forces during WWI and still in use in WWII, the [[Luger P08]] was a prized and coveted souvenir for Allied forces because of its elegant design. Malarkey is seen hunting around for one notably in "Day of Days" (Ep.2). In "The Breaking Point" (Ep.7), Corporal Hoobler ([[Peter McCabe]]) kills a Waffen SS Oberstrumfuhrer who has one, and later in the episode, it discharges in his pocket, which makes a fatal wound by hitting his femoral artery. It is later given to Sergeant Malarkey ([[Scott Grimes]]), who wanted one to bring home to his little brother. The real gun Hoobler found was a Belgian .32 and was not given to Malarkey.

===Mauser C96===
A French soldier is seen executing Wehrmacht prisoners with a [[Mauser C96|C96 "Broomhandle" Mauser]] in "Why We Fight" (Ep.9).

In the ''Band of Brothers'' companion documentary "We Stand Alone Together", the real Maj. Winters displays the [[Walther PP]] pistol he received from a surrendering German Major. Winters discovered the gun had never been fired, and said that it would remain that way. Richard Winters passed away on January 2, 2011.

==Submachine Guns==
===MP40===
The [[MP40]] was the most common submachine gun used by German forces during WWII. Popular culture has portrayed the MP40 as the most common weapon in the hands of WW2 German soldiers; this is actually incorrect, as the bolt-action Kar 98 was more common. This is correctly depicted in the show, not being put in the hands over every German soldier. In "Day of Days" (Ep.2), Sgt. Carwood Lipton captures one and carries it briefly in the episode.

==Rifles==
===Karabiner 98k===
The main battle rifle for German armed forces was the [[Karabiner 98k]]. Lt. Winters uses a captured K98k when he loses his M1 Garand on D-Day, in "Day of Days" (Ep.2). A German sniper is also seen using a scoped K98k against advancing Easy Company men during the battle of Foy in the episode "The Breaking Point" (Ep.7).

==Assault Rifles==
===Sturmgewehr 44===
During the siege of Bastogne in "The Breaking Point" (Ep.7), German soldiers are seen using the new [[Sturmgewehr 44]]. A Sturmgewehr 44 is also seen on a German-weapon familiarization wall in "Curahee" (Ep.1), which is anachronistic being that the Sturmgewehr 44 would not have been encountered until two years later.

==Machine Guns==
===MG34===
In "Currahee" (Ep.1), an example of an [[MG34]] machine gun is shown mounted on the wall among the various German weapons for familiarization.

===MG42===
In the mini-series, the [[MG42]] is seen multiple times, being fired from window openings in towns, and in stand-offs with the German armoured vehicles in the advance into France. Most notably, the mini-series did not fail to demonstrate or imply the demoralizing effect of the gun on U.S. troops, and this is a notable achievement for the film-makers, who added this realistic view, which before, had never been seen in such vivid detail in any previous war-film, barring of course, documentaries with actual war-time footage.

===3.7 cm Pak 35/36===
German Fallschirmjägers use a [[3.7 cm Pak 35/36]] in "Carentan" (Ep.3) firing the late war ''3.7 cm Stielgranate 41'', a shaped charge anti-tank round developed to make the outdated 37mm guns useful again. The ''3.7 cm Stielgranate 41'' was slid over the muzzle of the gun and fired with a special blank round, much the same as smaller rifle grenades. While the oversize warhead's massive power allowed to kill any Allied tank, it reduced the weapon's range and accuracy.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
As in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]'', a hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols appears, listed under the generic moniker of "Machine Pistol". It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid trademark issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser.” While it was replaced by the [[Walther P38]] in 1938, Lugers saw widespread usage on many fronts, including a production run of guns made by Mauser in 1942. In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. The front sights are currently misaligned. The The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

[[File:Vanguard Dead Silence.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Luger in the Dead Silence artwork, fitted with a long suppressor; note the seemingly fictional metal-bottomed grips and strange, thick trigger guard. It's also not entirely clear what the suppressor is actually attached to, given that a Luger's barrel ends more or less exactly where the in-game suppressor starts, with no room for threading.]]

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

[[File:Vanguard TT (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Previewing the TT pistol in the beta; note the oddly-shaped trigger guard, checkered grip panels, slide with 5 grasping serrations instead of 7, and rather concerning lack of a trigger.]]

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change (with the hammer magically cocking itself without the user thumbing it back) and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is impossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears as the “M1928”, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons (but is possible on actual M1928 Thompsons). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds, which do exist but never saw adoption in WWII. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire). In the beta, a conversion to .30-06 was available, based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of the real prototype. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, which gives the gun 30 round box magazines. Interestingly, while the Cutts compensator is available in game, it is currently not available on the Thompson. Other customisation options include the ability to remove the stock, the iconic forward pistol grip, and the M1928 Thompson iron sights, both flipped up and down as different attachments.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

[[File:Vanguard Armor Plates.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The artwork for the Armor Plates field upgrade (yet another anachronism, in terms of its effectiveness if nothing else) features an MP40 prominently, along with a couple other tools that would probably render the field upgrade in question largely irrelevant.]]

===MP41===
The "VDD 34M" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, effectively turning the weapon into the [[MP41]] (though it retains the MP40's underbarrel resting plate).

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

[[File: VanguardMP41(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the MP41.]]

==Owen Gun==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right. One of the stock attachments gives the gun an Owen MKII stock.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum. This is an earlier version of the Owen gun, featuring a finned barrel, early wireframe stock (some wireframe stocks have a clip that holds an oil bottle), and solid trigger housing.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game with the top of the rear sight chopped off. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.

[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].
[[File:Sten MkI.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

[[Image:Codfrontline1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The custom Sten on the bottom, painted with German helmet "Normandy" chicken wire style camouflage. Note the similarity with the "Rooted II" variant from ''Call of Duty: WWII''.]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's Pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, the magazine is inserted the wrong way round and it is stated to be an "8mm Kurz" (7.92x33mm) conversion, a caliber much too large for the ''Trommelmagazin 08''. For whatever reason, a slightly shorter [[AKS-74]] stock appears as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge. A completely fictional 7 shell extended cylinder is also an option, although it doesn't seem to rotate, which is a problem for a revolving shotgun.

The ejector rod is still used at the start of a reload. The right hand is used when non-empty; the empty reload is similar ''WWII'''s Toggle-Action empty reload with a tacticool mag swap.]]

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99", though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. However, the proper Type 99 barrel and rear iron sight are available attachments in the Gunsmith. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The weapon can be modified to use the 7.7x58mm ammunition of the real [[Arisaka Type 99|Type 99]], albeit in a detachable magazine; this is done with the "8mm Klauser mags" attachment, even though this name is used for 7.92x57mm Mauser attachments on other weapons. The rifle can also weirdly be converted to use the 9x22mmR Japanese cartridge in an [[MG13]] magazine containing only 8 rounds; for some reason, the relevant attachment has a completely different name ("5.6mm", which is normally used for .22 LR attachments of the game). The "fast mags" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional 20-round drum magazine is also available.

[[File:VanguardScopedArisaka1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wade checks the chamber on an Arisaka sniper rifle recently liberated from its owner.]]

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments. It is prominently and inaccurately used by the Afrika Korps in the African theater missions, probably representing Italian involvement there, however, in reality it was never adopted for service.

[[File:Vanguard Breda PG (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Breda PG rifle.]]

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'', again as the "Automaton", a literal translation of its Russian name. It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'' (roughly double the ROF of the actual rifle), and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources). Another barrel mod makes the gun fire in five-round bursts.
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. The “fast mag” Gunsmith option fixes this by replacing it with a proper magazine, albeit down-loaded to 8 rounds. A 20 extended magazine option is also available, based off of limited issue prototypes made for the weapon, but never widely issued.
The "Wyvern 570mm Full Auto" barrel attachment for the Gewehr 43 converts it to fire in full-auto, which wouldn't be a wise idea since it can easily empty the magazine in an instant and produce immense recoil.

[[File: VanguardGewehr43propermagazine2021.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|In game model of the G43, fitted with a proper 10 round magazine.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII''. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

A double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment, reusing the model from the [[Grossfuss Sturmgewehr]]'s extended magazine in ''WWII''.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used. One of the iron sight attachments gives the gun [[Gewehr 98]] style of rear sight.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

[[File:Vanguardgermankar98kstalingrad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German soldier holds the rifle during the battle of Stalingrad.]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips. The rear sight is chopped off, so the top half is missing. The bolt is palmed, which was not a technique taught by the British for use on this rifle.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle - instead a fired casing is ejected instead, which is incorrect. Additionally, the clip release button (below the sight adjustment drum) is never used to release a partially-loaded clip. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed. The striker does not fly forward when the trigger is pulled.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

While the third person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include a 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for 7.92x33mm Kurz (which appears to be inspired by another Activision-published title, ''[[Wolfenstein]]''). Magazines for ".30 Russian Short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. Both 30 and 20 round 7.62x39mm magazines are available, with the 20 rounder based on the 10 round [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] magazine without a curve. They are incorrectly modelled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve. A similar-looking straight magazine appeared in ''WWII'' as the extended magazine for the StG 44, but it is shorter in ''Vanguard''. The final magazine is a very similar-looking straight magazine to the 30 round 7.62x39mm magazine, which is apparently chambered for 7.65x25mm Tokarev (which the game calls "Gorenko") - this pistol-caliber conversion of an intermediate assault rifle may be inspired by similar modern weapons, like the [[Colt 9mm Submachine Gun]]. It is much too long for a pistol-caliber round due to reusing the model of the 7.62x39mm magazine, which in turn is slightly too small for the 7.62x39mm round as a result of having to fit into the StG's magazine well.

Some stock options remove or replace the default stock with a [http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Talk:Call_of_Duty:_Vanguard#Sport-Systeme_Dittrich_BD-44_Folding_Stock Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44] folding stock. This is supposedly a real folding stock, based on the MP40's stock design, but both the folding and removed stock would be mechanically implausible, as the StG's stock contains the recoil spring.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40. Of interesting fact, the P/U scope in game is labeled as the “SVT40 PU 3.5x” scope, a reference to the fact that the P/U scope was originally intended for the SVT40 as a sniper rifle, but problems with zeroing the rifles led to the Soviets re-using the scopes and creating new mounts for the Mosin Nagant. Despite this, the gun uses the Mosin Nagant-style of scope mount instead of the original one made for the rifle.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun Mk 2==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka is an available ammo conversion, which is fictional. The magazines used look like the ones used in the 7.92x57mm Mauser Bren guns.

Arthur Kingsley starts off with one during the final mission during the Battle of Berlin, despite holding an MP40 in the cutscene before.

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47. A proper 47 round pan magazine is available in the Gunsmith, although the magazine model will not reflect the real world magazine.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, classified as an assault rifle in game. The gun is select fire in game, but lacks the slow/fast auto settings and retains the semi/full auto selector like that of the original BAR. The in game model also has holes drilled into the trigger guard and a fictional box magazine in MP by default. It should be noted that in the single player, the BAR is fitted with the correct handguard and magazine model. Equipped the ‘8mm Klauser” magazine will give you the proper magazine model. Barrel attachments include the Colt R75A ribbed barrel and carry handle, but with the proper A2 handguard. The two curved magazine options are based off of the Kg m/21 and experimental 40 round curved magazine made for AA purposes (in WWI) respectively. Both are labeled as being in “.50 BMG,” a rather ludicrous choice to take the roll of the .50 Beowulf rounds from Modern Warfare 2019.
Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. Originally in the beta, the gun had it’s flash hider removed and this can still be seen in single player cutscenes. Upon release, however, the flash hider was added back onto the gun and won’t be replaced unless a muzzle attachment is swapped out. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

[[File:Codvanmg42b5n2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wade fires the custom MG42 to clear the airfield before escaping in the captured plane. In classic FPS fashion, the drum holds infinite ammo throughout this sequence. A more accurate choice would be the [[MG15]] machine gun, which the Japanese copied as the Type 98.]]

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to ''[[Battlefield V]]'''s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended (though the clip-based reload is only used if the number of missing rounds is a multiple of 5, likely to ensure that reloads will always top off the hopper completely. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds; fictional drum magazines are also available.
Despite being a Japanese machine gun, the Type 11 is inexplicably found in the opening mission "Phoenix", set in Germany.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of Gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Bangalore Torpedo==
A Bangalore Torpedo is used by Kingsley to destroy the naval guns in the Merville Gun Battery mission. This is a reference to the fact that the British paratroopers in the actual operation lacked sappers and proper explosives and resorted to using whatever was available such as Gammon bombs' plastic explosive for the task.

==F-1 hand grenade==
Several [[F-1 hand grenade]]s can be seen hanging on Soviet soldiers' uniforms.

[[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]]s can be used in the campaign, called "Model 24 Hand Grenade". It is also carried by Nazi zombies.
[[Image:M24handgrenade.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" high-explosive fragmentation hand grenade]]

==Mills Bomb==
[[Mills Bomb]]s are carried by British paratroopers in the reveal trailer. They also appear in artwork for the Warmachine field upgrade.

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] returns from ''WWII'', once again incorrectly depicted as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appeared as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha; the release build of the game changed this to "Gammon Bomb".
[[File:Gammon.jpg|thumb|none|No. 82 Gammon Grenade]]

==RGD-33 stick grenade==
Some [[RGD-33 stick grenade]] are also seen carried by Soviet soldiers in the campaign. They are also part of Polina's multiplayer outfits.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns as the "S-Mine 44" (being generically referred to as the "Proximity Mine" in the Alpha); gameplay-wise, it is analogous to the [[M18 Claymore]] from the series' more modern entries, with an incorrect proximity fuze instead of the real mine's pressure-based fuze.
[[File:SMine35.jpg|thumb|none|400px|S-Mine 35. Note the fuze is in the center of the mine body; the later S-Mine 44's fuze was instead offset.]]

==Unidentified smoke grenade==
An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.
[[File:M2-2FlameAth.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M2-2 flamethrower]]

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is a fictional version of it that somehow fires in semi-auto and feeds from a drum magazine reminiscent of the [[AGS-17 Playma]]'s belt box.

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945.
[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Panzerfaust 60 - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]

==Type 96 light machine gun==
The [[Type 96 light machine gun|Type 96 LMG]] is briefly seen during the ending cutscene of the Bougainville mission. Despite this, it does not actually appear during gameplay; the mounted machine guns are for whatever reason [[MG42]]s.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
As in ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]'', a hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols appears, listed under the generic moniker of "Machine Pistol". It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid trademark issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. A more correct choice for the Germans would be the [[Walther P38]] and the Japanese should have a [[Nambu Type 14]], as the Luger was used in very small numbers only by the Germans during WWII. The front sight is misaligned.

The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

[[File:Vanguard Dead Silence.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Luger in the Dead Silence artwork, fitted with a long suppressor; note the seemingly fictional metal-bottomed grips and strange, thick trigger guard. It's also not entirely clear what the suppressor is actually attached to, given that a Luger's barrel ends more or less exactly where the in-game suppressor starts, with no room for threading.]]

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

[[File:Vanguard TT (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Previewing the TT pistol in the beta; note the oddly-shaped trigger guard, checkered grip panels, slide with 5 grasping serrations instead of 7, and rather concerning lack of a trigger.]]

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change (with the hammer magically cocking itself without the user thumbing it back) and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is impossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

[[file:Webley Mark VI 4 inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Webley Mk VI with 4" barrel - .455 Webley]]

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears in the Alpha as the default weapon in Champion Hill mode, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons. Sledgehammer refers to it as the "M1928", which is the Thompson variant that could use drums. When reloading, the drum is correctly removed via a sideways movement (as correct as a drum on an M1A1 can be, anyway). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire).

In the beta a conversion to .30-06 is available; this appears to be based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of that version. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, the name being fairly self-explanatory. The iron sights of the [[M1928 Thompson]] are also an available customization.

Other customisation options include the ability to remove the stock, a real modification done to Thompson guns in the war, although these were mounted guns on M4 Shermans for training purposes, not weapons used by infantry.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

[[File:Vanguard Armor Plates.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The artwork for the Armor Plates field upgrade (yet another anachronism, in terms of its effectiveness if nothing else) features an MP40 prominently, along with a couple other tools that would probably render the field upgrade in question largely irrelevant.]]

===MP41===
The "VDD 34M" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, effectively turning the weapon into the [[MP41]] (though it retains the MP40's underbarrel resting plate).

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen Gun==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game with the top of the rear sight chopped off. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.
[[File:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].
[[File:Sten MkI.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

[[Image:Codfrontline1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The custom Sten on the bottom, painted with German helmet "Normandy" chicken wire style camouflage. Note the similarity with the "Rooted II" variant from ''Call of Duty: WWII''.]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's Pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, the magazine is inserted the wrong way round and it is stated to be an "8mm Kurz" (7.92x33mm) conversion, a caliber much too large for the ''Trommelmagazin 08''. For whatever reason, a slightly shorter [[AKS-74]] stock appears as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge. A completely fictional 7 shell extended cylinder is also an option, although it doesn't seem to rotate, which is a problem for a revolving shotgun.

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99", though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The weapon can be modified to use the 7.7x58mm ammunition of the real [[Arisaka Type 99|Type 99]], albeit in a detachable magazine; this is done with the "8mm Klauser mags" attachment, even though this name is used for 7.92x57mm Mauser attachments on other weapons. The rifle can also weirdly be converted to use the 9x22mmR Japanese cartridge in an [[MG13]] magazine containing only 8 rounds; for some reason, the relevant attachment has a completely different name ("5.6mm", which is normally used for .22 LR attachments of the game). The "fast mags" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional 20-round drum magazine is also available.

[[File:VanguardScopedArisaka1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wade checks the chamber on an Arisaka sniper rifle recently liberated from its owner.]]

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments. It is prominently and inaccurately used by the Afrika Korps in the African theater missions, probably representing Italian involvement there, however, in reality it was never adopted for service.

[[File:Vanguard Breda PG (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Breda PG rifle.]]

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'', again as the "Automaton", a literal translation of its Russian name. It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'' (roughly double the ROF of the actual rifle), and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources). Another barrel mod makes the gun fire in five-round bursts.
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. The “fast mag” Gunsmith option fixes this by replacing it with a proper magazine, albeit down-loaded to 8 rounds. A 20 extended magazine option is also available, based off of limited issue prototypes made for the weapon, but never widely issued.
The "Wyvern 570mm Full Auto" barrel attachment for the Gewehr 43 converts it to fire in full-auto, which wouldn't be a wise idea since it can easily empty the magazine in an instant and produce immense recoil.

[[File: VanguardGewehr43propermagazine2021.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|In game model of the G43, fitted with a proper 10 round magazine.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII''. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

A double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment, reusing the model from the [[Grossfuss Sturmgewehr]]'s extended magazine in ''WWII''.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips. The rear sight is chopped off, so the top half is missing. The bolt is palmed, which was not a technique taught by the British for use on this rifle.

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in the Beta, classed as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle - instead a fired casing is ejected instead, which is incorrect. Additionally, the clip release button (below the sight adjustment drum) is never used to release a partially-loaded clip. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed. The striker does not fly forward when the trigger is pulled.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

While the third person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include a 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for 7.92x33mm Kurz (which appears to be inspired by another Activision-published title, ''[[Wolfenstein]]''). Magazines for ".30 Russian Short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. Both 30 and 20 round 7.62x39mm magazines are available, with the 20 rounder based on the 10 round [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] magazine without a curve. They are incorrectly modelled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve. A similar-looking straight magazine appeared in ''WWII'' as the extended magazine for the StG 44, but it is shorter in ''Vanguard''. The final magazine is a very similar-looking straight magazine to the 30 round 7.62x39mm magazine, which is apparently chambered for 7.65x25mm Tokarev (which the game calls "Gorenko") - this pistol-caliber conversion of an intermediate assault rifle may be inspired by similar modern weapons, like the [[Colt 9mm Submachine Gun]]. It is much too long for a pistol-caliber round due to reusing the model of the 7.62x39mm magazine, which in turn is slightly too small for the 7.62x39mm round as a result of having to fit into the StG's magazine well.

Some stock options remove or replace the default stock with a [http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Talk:Call_of_Duty:_Vanguard#Sport-Systeme_Dittrich_BD-44_Folding_Stock Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44] folding stock. This is supposedly a real folding stock, based on the MP40's stock design, but both the folding and removed stock would be mechanically implausible, as the StG's stock contains the recoil spring.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', this time more accurately being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun Mk 2==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka is an available ammo conversion, which is fictional. The magazines used look like the ones used in the 7.92x57mm Mauser Bren guns.

Arthur Kingsley starts off with one during the final mission during the Battle of Berlin, despite holding an MP40 in the cutscene before.

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47. A proper 47 round pan magazine is available in the Gunsmith, although the magazine model will not reflect the real world magazine.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, classified as an assault rifle in game. The gun is select fire in game, but lacks the slow/fast auto settings and retains the semi/full auto selector like that of the original BAR. The in game model also has holes drilled into the trigger guard and a fictional box magazine in MP by default. It should be noted that in the single player, the BAR is fitted with the correct handguard and magazine model. Equipped the ‘8mm Klauser” magazine will give you the proper magazine model. Barrel attachments include the Colt R75A ribbed barrel and carry handle, but with the proper A2 handguard. The two curved magazine options are based off of the Kg m/21 and experimental 40 round curved magazine made for AA purposes (in WWI) respectively. Both are labeled as being in “.50 BMG,” a rather ludicrous choice to take the roll of the .50 Beowulf rounds from Modern Warfare 2019.
Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. Originally in the beta, the gun had it’s flash hider removed and this can still be seen in single player cutscenes. Upon release, however, the flash hider was added back onto the gun and won’t be replaced unless a muzzle attachment is swapped out. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

[[File:Codvanmg42b5n2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wade fires the custom MG42 to clear the airfield before escaping in the captured plane. In classic FPS fashion, the drum holds infinite ammo throughout this sequence. A more accurate choice would be the [[MG15]] machine gun, which the Japanese copied as the Type 98.]]

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to ''[[Battlefield V]]'''s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended (though the clip-based reload is only used if the number of missing rounds is a multiple of 5, likely to ensure that reloads will always top off the hopper completely. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds; fictional drum magazines are also available.
Despite being a Japanese machine gun, the Type 11 is inexplicably found in the opening mission "Phoenix", set in Germany.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of Gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Bangalore Torpedo==
A Bangalore Torpedo is used by Kingsley to destroy the naval guns in the Merville Gun Battery mission. This is a reference to the fact that the British paratroopers in the actual operation lacked sappers and proper explosives and resorted to using whatever was available such as Gammon bombs' plastic explosive for the task.

==F-1 hand grenade==
Several [[F-1 hand grenade]]s can be seen hanging on Soviet soldiers' uniforms.

[[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]]s can be used in the campaign, called "Model 24 Hand Grenade". It is also carried by Nazi zombies.
[[Image:M24handgrenade.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" high-explosive fragmentation hand grenade]]

==Mills Bomb==
[[Mills Bomb]]s are carried by British paratroopers in the reveal trailer. They also appear in artwork for the Warmachine field upgrade.

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] returns from ''WWII'', once again incorrectly depicted as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appeared as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha; the release build of the game changed this to "Gammon Bomb".
[[File:Gammon.jpg|thumb|none|No. 82 Gammon Grenade]]

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns as the "S-Mine 44" (being generically referred to as the "Proximity Mine" in the Alpha); gameplay-wise, it is analogous to the [[M18 Claymore]] from the series' more modern entries, with an incorrect proximity fuze instead of the real mine's pressure-based fuze.
[[File:SMine35.jpg|thumb|none|400px|S-Mine 35. Note the fuze is in the center of the mine body; the later S-Mine 44's fuze was instead offset.]]

An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is a fictional version of it that somehow fires in semi-auto and feeds from a drum magazine reminiscent of the [[AGS-17 Playma]]'s belt box.

==Type 96 light machine gun==
The [[Type 96 light machine gun|Type 96 LMG]] is briefly seen during the ending cutscene of the Bougainville mission. Despite this, it does not actually appear during gameplay; the mounted machine guns are for whatever reason [[MG42]]s.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
A hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols is seen in the Alpha, listed under the same "Machine Pistol" moniker from ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]''. It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid copyright issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

[[File:Example.jpg]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. A more correct choice for the Germans would be the [[Walther P38]] and the Japanese should have a [[Nambu Type 14]], as the Luger was used in very small numbers only by the Germans during WWII. The front sight is misaligned.

The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

[[File:CODV Luger Menu.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Luger in the Dead Silence artwork, fitted with a long suppressor.]]

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

[[File:Vanguard TT (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Previewing the TT pistol in the beta; note the oddly-shaped trigger guard, checkered grip panels, slide with 5 grasping serrations instead of 7, and rather concerning lack of a trigger.]]

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is inpossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

[[file:Webley Mark VI 4 inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Webley Mk VI with 4" barrel - .455 Webley]]

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears in the Alpha as the default weapon in Champion Hill mode, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons. Sledgehammer refers to it as the "M1928", which is the Thompson variant that could use drums. When reloading, the drum is correctly removed via a sideways movement (as correct as a drum on an M1A1 can be, anyway). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire).

In the beta a conversion to .30-06 is available; this appears to be based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of that version. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, the name being fairly self-explanatory. The iron sights of the [[M1928 Thompson]] are also an available customization.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.

[[File:Vanguardgermanguardmp401.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German Guard holds the MP40 on Lieutenant Arthur Kingsley.]]

===MP41===
The "?" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, turning the weapon into the [[MP41]].

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

[[File: VanguardPPSh41Drum.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the PPSh-41 with the 71 round drum.]]

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.

[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, and the magazine is inserted the wrong way round.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge.

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99," though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The "5.6 mm magazines" attachment adds an [[MG13]] magazine, which however only contains 8 rounds and functions as a detachable one. The "fast magazine" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional drum magazine is also available.

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments.

[[File:Vanguard Breda PG (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Breda PG rifle.]]

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "Automaton". It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'', and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources).
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. A fictional short, straight 8-round magazine can be added with the "fast mags" attachment. 20-round extended box magazines are also available; this is one of the rare occasions when ''CoD'' gets it right (although it is not known for certain if these magazines were widely used or even available during WWII).

[[File:VanguardG43equipStalingrad2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The initial equip animation always has the gun empty with the bolt locked back. The player inspects the magazine the performs a full reload.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII'' as its namesake. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

An oversized double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG34/MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

[[File:Vanguardgermankar98kstalingrad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German soldier holds the rifle during the battle of Stalingrad.]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign, and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips.
[[File:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[File:Codvanleeenfield1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lee-Enfield in the hand of a British soldier as he hops off a tank in North Africa.]]

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in the Beta, classed as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

While the third person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading. This could be an error due to the reload animation possibly being reused from the Kar98k in MW2019, and thus the position of the rifle body being in a slightly wrong location from the bolt and hands models.]]
[[File: VanguardM9130ProperBarrel(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the M1891/30 Mosin Nagant with no scope.]]

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include an 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for the 7.92x33mm Kurz. Magazines for ".30 Russian short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. The 7.62x39mm magazines are also incorrectly modeled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', this time more accurately being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. Short "fast mags" are also an option, which appear to be based on the Lee-Enfield magazines, scaled up to fit 20 rounds.

[[File:Vanguard Bren (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren Mk.2 in the gunsmith preview. Note that the rear sight is correctly attached to the receiver here, suggesting that its in-game location is a bug.]]

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, although the HUD icon had the correct handguard length during the Alpha. It is able to switch between full-auto (at a slow fire rate of 400 RPM) and semi-auto, which is incorrect: the real M1918A2's fire selector instead had a slow full-auto and fast full-auto option, while the earlier M1918 could switch between semi-auto and ''fast'' full-auto (500-650 RPM). A 30 round curved magazine is available, which supposedly fires .50 BMG rounds. It is classed as an assault rifle.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

[[File:Vanguard BAR (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The BAR in the Gunsmith preview, with its unusual handguard, WWI-era wood stock, and stylized flat-bottomed magazine.]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. For some reason it lacks a muzzle in the multiplayer by default and more bizarrely the proper muzzle isn't available even as attachment. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

[[File:CODV MG42 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|MG42 with drum magazine, used by a German soldier.]]

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to [[Battlefield V]]'s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Mk 2 Grenade==
American [[Mk 2 hand grenade]]s are used by US forces during the campaign. It is also the standard grenade in multiplayer.

==Mk.V CN Gas Grenade==
The [[Mk.V CN Gas Grenade]] appears as the "Gas Grenade".
[[File:GasGrenadeMk.jpg|thumb|none|200px|Mk.V CN Gas Grenade]]

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
[[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]]s can be seen lying on the ground next to a German helmet in the teaser trailer. It is also carried by Nazi zombies.
[[Image:M24handgrenade.JPG|thumb|none|300px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" high-explosive fragmentation hand grenade]]

==Mills Bomb==
[[Mills Bomb]]s are carried by British paratroopers in the reveal trailer. They also appear in artwork for the Armour Plates field upgrade and the Warmachine field upgrade.
[[File:Mills Bomb SGM-1.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 36M Mk.I "Mills Bomb" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade.]]

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] is seen in the Alpha as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.
[[Image:69grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 69 Mk. 1 High-Explosive hand grenade.]]

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appears as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha.
[[Image:Gammon.jpg|thumb|none|No. 82 Gammon Grenade]]

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns in the Alpha as the "Proximity Mine", functioning like a [[M18 Claymore]] from other titles.
[[Image:SMine35.jpg|thumb|none|400px|S-Mine 35. Note the fuze is in the center of the mine body; the later S-Mine 44's fuze was instead offset.]]

==Type 97 Hand Grenade==
The [[Type 97 hand grenade]] can be used by during the Pacific single-player campaign.

==Unidentified smoke grenade==
An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].
[[Image:Flammenwerfer 41.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Flammenwerfer mit Strahlpatrone 41]]

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.
[[File:M2-2FlameAth.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M2-2 flamethrower]]
[[File:VanguardFlamethrowerLewis1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Lewis Howard lights up a Japanese position with his M2.]]

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is also a fictionalized depiction of it that fires impact-detonated grenades and has a drum magazine like the AGS-17.
[[Image:2 inch Smoke Mortar.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I (UK) / 2 inch Mortar M3 (US) - 50.8mm smoke bomb]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.
[[Image:Bazookasmithsonian.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1 Bazooka - 2.36 inch]]
[[File:Vanguard M1 Bazooka (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in the loadout selection preview.]]

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945.
[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Panzerfaust 60 - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.

=Others=
==Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V Signal Pistol==
The [[Webley & Scott No.1 Mk. V Signal Pistol]] is used several times in key moments throughout the campaign.
[[Image:British-No1-MkV-Flare.jpg|thumb|none|300px|No. 1 Mk. V Signal Pistol - 1 inch]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==3.7 cm Bordkanone==
A German Stuka dive bomber in the trailer can be seen with two 3.7 cm ''Bordkanonen''. In the final level, gun pods not yet mounted on planes can be seen in the airbase.
[[File:Bordkanone 3,7.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bordkanone 3,7 - 37mm]]

The lack of dive brakes indicates that this is a Ju 87G-1 variant; these variants of the Stuka would only see production at some point after January 1943, making it anachronistic to the Stalingrad setting as depicted in the gameplay reveal.]]

==3 Inch/50 Mark 2 Model 4==
The stranded American navy cargo ship has several 3 Inch/50 Mark 2 Model 4 deck guns.

==15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval gun==
German 15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval guns are destroyed by the British paratroopers during the Merville Gun Battery mission. However, this is inaccurate since there were no such guns nor Regelbau M272 casemates as depicted in-game. The actual guns at Merville were old Skoda houfnice vz 14/19.

==Degtyaryov DT==
A Soviet T-34/85 with a hull-mounted [[Degtyaryov DT]] is seen during the Stalingrad Demo Play-through. It is worth mentioning that this model is anachronistic for the Stalingrad scenario; the earlier T-34/76 would be more correct.

==Type 96 light machine gun==
The [[Type 96 light machine gun|Type 96 LMG]] is briefly seen during the ending cutscene of the Bougainville mission. Despite this, it does not actually appear during gameplay; the mounted machine guns are for whatever reason [[MG42]]s.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
A hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols is seen in the Alpha, listed under the same "Machine Pistol" moniker from ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]''. It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid copyright issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

[[File:Example.jpg]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. A more correct choice for the Germans would be the [[Walther P38]] and the Japanese should have a [[Nambu Type 14]], as the Luger was used in very small numbers only by the Germans during WWII. The front sight is misaligned.

The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is inpossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears in the Alpha as the default weapon in Champion Hill mode, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons. Sledgehammer refers to it as the "M1928", which is the Thompson variant that could use drums. When reloading, the drum is correctly removed via a sideways movement (as correct as a drum on an M1A1 can be, anyway). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire).

In the beta a conversion to .30-06 is available; this appears to be based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of that version. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, the name being fairly self-explanatory. The iron sights of the [[M1928 Thompson]] are also an available customization.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.

===MP41===
The "?" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, turning the weapon into the [[MP41]].

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.
[[File:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].
[[File:Sten MkI.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, and the magazine is inserted the wrong way round.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge.

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99," though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The "5.6 mm magazines" attachment adds an [[MG13]] magazine, which however only contains 8 rounds and functions as a detachable one. The "fast magazine" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional drum magazine is also available.

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments.

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "Automaton". It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'', and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources).
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. A fictional short, straight 8-round magazine can be added with the "fast mags" attachment. 20-round extended box magazines are also available; this is one of the rare occasions when ''CoD'' gets it right (although it is not known for certain if these magazines were widely used or even available during WWII).

[[File:VanguardG43equipStalingrad2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The initial equip animation always has the gun empty with the bolt locked back. The player inspects the magazine the performs a full reload.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII'' as its namesake. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

An oversized double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG34/MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

[[File:Vanguardgermankar98kstalingrad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German soldier holds the rifle during the battle of Stalingrad.]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign, and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips.
[[File:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[File:Codvanleeenfield1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lee-Enfield in the hand of a British soldier as he hops off a tank in North Africa.]]

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in the Beta, classed as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include an 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for the 7.92x33mm Kurz. Magazines for ".30 Russian short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. The 7.62x39mm magazines are also incorrectly modeled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.
[[File:SudayevAS44.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Sudayev AS-44 (Model 4) - 7.62x41mm M43]]

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', this time more accurately being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. Short "fast mags" are also an option, which appear to be based on the Lee-Enfield magazines, scaled up to fit 20 rounds.

[[File:Vanguard Bren (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren Mk.2 in the gunsmith preview. Note that the rear sight is correctly attached to the receiver here, suggesting that its in-game location is a bug.]]

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

[[File: VanguardCharltonAR30roundmag(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Charlton Automatic Rifle with a 30 round magazine that holds 45 rounds in game.]]

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

[[Image:RP46.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RP-46 - 7.62x54mm R]]

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, although the HUD icon had the correct handguard length during the Alpha. It is able to switch between full-auto (at a slow fire rate of 400 RPM) and semi-auto, which is incorrect: the real M1918A2's fire selector instead had a slow full-auto and fast full-auto option, while the earlier M1918 could switch between semi-auto and ''fast'' full-auto (500-650 RPM). A 30 round curved magazine is available, which supposedly fires .50 BMG rounds. It is classed as an assault rifle.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

[[File:Vanguard BAR (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The BAR in the Gunsmith preview, with its unusual handguard, WWI-era wood stock, and stylized flat-bottomed magazine.]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. For some reason it lacks a muzzle in the multiplayer by default and more bizarrely the proper muzzle isn't available even as attachment. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to [[Battlefield V]]'s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Mk 2 Grenade==

[[File:Mills Bomb SGM-1.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 36M Mk.I "Mills Bomb" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade.]]

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] is seen in the Alpha as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.
[[Image:69grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 69 Mk. 1 High-Explosive hand grenade.]]

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appears as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha.

An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].
[[Image:Flammenwerfer 41.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Flammenwerfer mit Strahlpatrone 41]]

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is also a fictionalized depiction of it that fires impact-detonated grenades and has a drum magazine like the AGS-17.
[[Image:2 inch Smoke Mortar.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I (UK) / 2 inch Mortar M3 (US) - 50.8mm smoke bomb]]

[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Panzerfaust 60 - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]

German 15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval guns are destroyed by the British paratroopers during the Merville Gun Battery mission. However, this is inaccurate since there were no such guns nor Regelbau M272 casemates as depicted in-game. The actual guns at Merville were old Skoda houfnice vz 14/19.

==Type 96 light machine gun==
The [[Type 96 light machine gun|Type 96 LMG]] is briefly seen during the ending cutscene of the Bougainville mission. Despite this, it does not actually appear during gameplay; the mounted machine guns are for whatever reason [[MG42]]s.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
A hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols is seen in the Alpha, listed under the same "Machine Pistol" moniker from ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]''. It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid copyright issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

[[File:Example.jpg]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. A more correct choice for the Germans would be the [[Walther P38]] and the Japanese should have a [[Nambu Type 14]], as the Luger was used in very small numbers only by the Germans during WWII. The front sight is misaligned.

The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

[[File:Luger carbine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Luger Carbine - 7.65x21mm Luger]]

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is inpossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

[[file:Webley Mark VI 4 inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Webley Mk VI with 4" barrel - .455 Webley]]

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears in the Alpha as the default weapon in Champion Hill mode, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons. Sledgehammer refers to it as the "M1928", which is the Thompson variant that could use drums. When reloading, the drum is correctly removed via a sideways movement (as correct as a drum on an M1A1 can be, anyway). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire).

In the beta a conversion to .30-06 is available; this appears to be based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of that version. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, the name being fairly self-explanatory. The iron sights of the [[M1928 Thompson]] are also an available customization.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.

[[File:CODVanguard PromoArt MP40.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 held in first-person, as seen in the promotional art.

[[File:Vanguardgermanguardmp401.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German Guard holds the MP40 on Lieutenant Arthur Kingsley.]]

===MP41===
The "?" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, turning the weapon into the [[MP41]].

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum. This is an earlier version of the Owen gun, featuring a finned barrel, early wireframe stock (some wireframe stocks have a clip that holds an oil bottle), and solid trigger housing.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

[[File: VanguardPPSh41Drum.jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the PPSh-41 with the 71 round drum.]]

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.
[[File:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].

[[Image:Codfrontline1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The custom Sten on the bottom, painted with German helmet "Normandy" chicken wire style camouflage. Note the similarity with the "Rooted II" variant from ''Call of Duty: WWII''.]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, and the magazine is inserted the wrong way round.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge.

The ejector rod is still used at the start of a reload. The right hand is used when non-empty; the empty reload is similar ''WWII'''s Toggle-Action empty reload with a tacticool mag swap.]]

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99," though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The "5.6 mm magazines" attachment adds an [[MG13]] magazine, which however only contains 8 rounds and functions as a detachable one. The "fast magazine" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional drum magazine is also available.

[[File:VanguardScopedArisaka1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Wade checks the chamber on an Arisaka Sniper Rifle recently liberated from its owner.]]

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments.

[[File:Vanguard Breda PG (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Breda PG rifle.]]

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "Automaton". It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'', and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources).
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. A fictional short, straight 8-round magazine can be added with the "fast mags" attachment. 20-round extended box magazines are also available; this is one of the rare occasions when ''CoD'' gets it right (although it is not known for certain if these magazines were widely used or even available during WWII).

[[File:VanguardG43equipStalingrad2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The initial equip animation always has the gun empty with the bolt locked back. The player inspects the magazine the performs a full reload.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII'' as its namesake. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

An oversized double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG34/MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

[[File:Vanguardgermankar98kstalingrad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German soldier holds the rifle during the battle of Stalingrad.]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign, and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips.
[[File:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[File:Codvanleeenfield1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lee-Enfield in the hand of a British soldier as he hops off a tank in North Africa.]]

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in the Beta, classed as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

While the third person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading. This could be an error due to the reload animation possibly being reused from the Kar98k in MW2019, and thus the position of the rifle body being in a slightly wrong location from the bolt and hands models.]]
[[File: VanguardM9130ProperBarrel(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the M1891/30 Mosin Nagant with no scope.]]

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include an 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for the 7.92x33mm Kurz. Magazines for ".30 Russian short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. The 7.62x39mm magazines are also incorrectly modeled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', this time more accurately being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40.

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. Short "fast mags" are also an option, which appear to be based on the Lee-Enfield magazines, scaled up to fit 20 rounds.

[[File:Vanguard Bren (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren Mk.2 in the gunsmith preview. Note that the rear sight is correctly attached to the receiver here, suggesting that its in-game location is a bug.]]

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, although the HUD icon had the correct handguard length during the Alpha. It is able to switch between full-auto (at a slow fire rate of 400 RPM) and semi-auto, which is incorrect: the real M1918A2's fire selector instead had a slow full-auto and fast full-auto option, while the earlier M1918 could switch between semi-auto and ''fast'' full-auto (500-650 RPM). A 30 round curved magazine is available, which supposedly fires .50 BMG rounds. It is classed as an assault rifle.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.

[[File:Vanguard BAR (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The BAR in the Gunsmith preview, with its unusual handguard, WWI-era wood stock, and stylized flat-bottomed magazine.]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. For some reason it lacks a muzzle in the multiplayer by default and more bizarrely the proper muzzle isn't available even as attachment. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to [[Battlefield V]]'s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds.

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Mk 2 Grenade==
American [[Mk 2 hand grenade]]s are used by US forces during the campaign. It is also the standard grenade in multiplayer.

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
[[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]]s can be seen lying on the ground next to a German helmet in the teaser trailer. It is also carried by Nazi zombies.

==Mills Bomb==
[[Mills Bomb]]s are carried by British paratroopers in the reveal trailer. They also appear in artwork for the Armour Plates field upgrade and the Warmachine field upgrade.
[[File:Mills Bomb SGM-1.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 36M Mk.I "Mills Bomb" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade.]]

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] is seen in the Alpha as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.
[[Image:69grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 69 Mk. 1 High-Explosive hand grenade.]]

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appears as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha.
[[Image:Gammon.jpg|thumb|none|No. 82 Gammon Grenade]]

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns in the Alpha as the "Proximity Mine", functioning like a [[M18 Claymore]] from other titles.
[[Image:SMine35.jpg|thumb|none|400px|S-Mine 35. Note the fuze is in the center of the mine body; the later S-Mine 44's fuze was instead offset.]]

==Type 97 Hand Grenade==
The [[Type 97 hand grenade]] can be used by during the Pacific single-player campaign.

==Unidentified smoke grenade==
An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].
[[Image:Flammenwerfer 41.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Flammenwerfer mit Strahlpatrone 41]]

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is also a fictionalized depiction of it that fires impact-detonated grenades and has a drum magazine like the AGS-17.
[[Image:2 inch Smoke Mortar.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I (UK) / 2 inch Mortar M3 (US) - 50.8mm smoke bomb]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.

[[File:Vanguard M1 Bazooka (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in the loadout selection preview.]]

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945.
[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Panzerfaust 60 - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.

=Mounted Weapons=
==3.7 cm Bordkanone==
A German Stuka dive bomber in the trailer can be seen with two 3.7 cm ''Bordkanonen''. In the final level, gun pods not yet mounted on planes can be seen in the airbase.

==15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval gun==
German 15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval guns are destroyed by the British paratroopers during the Merville Gun Battery mission. However, this is inaccurate since there were no such guns nor Regelbau M272 casemates as depicted in-game. The actual guns at Merville were old Skoda houfnice vz 14/19.

==Degtyaryov DT==
A Soviet T-34/85 with a hull-mounted [[Degtyaryov DT]] is seen during the Stalingrad Demo Play-through. It is worth mentioning that this model is anachronistic for the Stalingrad scenario; the earlier T-34/76 would be more correct.

==Type 96 light machine gun==
The [[Type 96 light machine gun|Type 96 LMG]] is briefly seen during the ending cutscene of the Bougainville mission. Despite this, it does not actually appear during gameplay; the mounted machine guns are for whatever reason [[MG42]]s.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'', Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation. Caliber conversions return from Modern Warfare (2019) and are a bit more ludicrous, such as converting LMGs to fire .50 BMG rounds (which would be way too big to fit in them at all). Also returning are different ammunition types, ranging from incendiary rounds to frangible rounds.
Many of the automatic weapons feature select-fire modes between semi and fully-automatic; this is inaccurate as several are full-auto only in real life.

Multiplayer features a new mode called Champion Hill, where small teams of two or three players battle in small arenas to be the only survivor. In between rounds, they can use the cash they've earned to purchase upgrades and better weapons.

=Pistols=
All pistols are held with a modern proper two-handed grip, a technique not practised during WWII, making it anachronistic. One-handed "point-shooting" and teacup grips were the norm in that era. However, they are held one-handed when using the akimbo proficiency, but dual-wielding was not practised during the war either.

==Colt M1911==
The [[Colt M1911]] appears under the "1911" name and has an 8-round magazine by default, which is anachronistic, as 8-round magazines did not exist for the M1911 in WWII. A more appropriate choice for WWII would be the updated [[M1911A1]] variant with a 7 round magazine. Magazine options include a 5 round speed mag (which, for some reason, is longer than the default 8 rounder) and an 18 round extended magazine based on the [https://medium.com/war-is-boring/in-the-1930s-you-could-legally-turn-your-colt-1911-into-a-carbine-c152724d4430 .45 ACP extended magazine] made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales in the 20s and 30s. The "Cooper Full-Auto" barrel tuns the weapon into a machine pistol, with the "Strife Compensator" attachment and the 18 round magazine creating a resemblance to Lebman's machine pistols (such as the one famously used by John Dillinger), minus the Thompson foregrip and stock found on some examples.

The pistol is also seen in the "This is Fine" calling card.

==Mauser C96 Hybrid==
A hybrid of different [[Mauser C96]] pistols is seen in the Alpha, listed under the same "Machine Pistol" moniker from ''[[Call of Duty: WWII|WWII]]''. It has the general appearance of the M1930 model of the C96, and is full-auto with detachable magazines like the M712 Schnellfeuer, despite lacking a selector switch, and also has a "Red 9" grip. It uses ".30 Klauser" ammunition in 10 round magazines (".30 Jaeger" during the Beta), likely a rename of .30 Mauser (i.e. 7.63x25mm Mauser) to avoid copyright issues.

A 20 round magazine is available as the "7.62 Gorenko Extended Mags" attachment, holding an incorrect 40 rounds of 7.62x25mm Tokarev (which has a copyright free "Gorenko" name instead in-game). The C96 can fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round, but doing so is not recommended as it can damage the pistol. The "9mm Extended Mags" uses a fictional magazine that appears to hold 14 rounds. Of note is that Yugoslavia manufactured 9mm M712 pistols, making the caliber correct, but not the capacity. The "VDD 140mm HE" barrel gives it a shorter version of the barrel seen on the [[M1917 Trench Carbine]].

Oddly, the beta version of the C96 mashup had additional magazine options (as well as different names for the ones that stayed for the full release, such as "Tokarev" changing to "Gorenko") - an 8 round 9x19mm "fast mag" that is reloaded with 10-round stripper clips (''somehow'' being faster than reloading with magazines) and "8mm Nambu" 20 round magazines, a caliber that the C96 never used.

[[File:Example.jpg]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is available in-game as the "Klauser". In the campaign, it is seen in the hands of both the Germans and Japanese. A more correct choice for the Germans would be the [[Walther P38]] and the Japanese should have a [[Nambu Type 14]], as the Luger was used in very small numbers only by the Germans during WWII. The front sight is misaligned.

The 32 round ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available for the weapon (under the name "9mm Extended Mags"), incorrectly only holding 12 rounds and fitted with a sling wrapped around the winding arm of the drum, preventing it from feeding into the chamber. Additionally, US Army trial versions of the Luger were rechambered for .45 ACP, which is possible in-game with the ".45 ACP Mags", however the pistol still lacks the grip safety and slightly longer barrel the trials Luger had. The "Fitzherbert 200mm BL" barrel is a significantly shortened [[Luger Carbine]] barrel, although stocks are not an option for pistols, so a full mock-up of the Carbine is not possible.

It is also seen in the artwork for the Dead Silence field upgrade, fitted with a suppressor.

[[File:Luger carbine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Luger Carbine - 7.65x21mm Luger]]

==Tokarev TT-33==
The [[Tokarev TT-33]] is featured in the beta as the "RATT", taking the TT from the pistol's actual name. It incorrectly holds 9 rounds by default instead of the correct 8. The model's default trigger has a non-standard hole cutout in it, though some of the replacement trigger customizations resemble the correct style. All suppressors humorously block the ironsights.

In the beta, the rear sight and recoil spring plug weren't attached to the slide, and floated in place when it moved back, but this was fixed for release.

===Norinco Type 54 / Model 213===
Equipping the "9mm Fast Mag" or the "9mm Extended Mags" turns the pistol into a [[Norinco Type 54 / Model 213]], minus the manual safety. The Type 54 / Model 213 was made in 1951 onwards, making the 9mm conversions anachronistic. Note both magazines have incorrect capacities of 6 and 18 respectively, instead of the correct 8 for the time period. The extended mag also has an incorrect capacity of 18 - real extended Model 213A pistols has a capacity of 14.
[[Image:Tokarev NorincoM213B.jpg‎ |thumb|none|350px|Norinco Type 54 Model 213 with blued finish - 9x19mm. This is a screen used pistol from ''[[Rush Hour]]'']]

==Webley Mark VI==
The [[Webley Mk VI]] appears in Vanguard, simply called the "Top Break" due to its break-action chamber. It is shown using .45 ACP ammunition, which is anachronistic, as the .45 ACP modifications for Webley revolvers were made after the war. It can be fired in single-action, although it doesn't even have an animation change and makes no difference to the weapons performance. A suppressor can incorrectly be used with the revolver, something which is inpossible in real-life due to the lack of a gas seal.

The initial draw animation for the akimbo Webleys features a cowboy-esque spin of the left revolver. As for the break-action nature of the revolver, the game fudges it by simply thrusting down with the revolver in the character's hand, without pressing the latch to open the revolver up, followed by the equally impossible speedloader reload off-screen, as is tradition for ''Call of Duty''.

[[file:Webley Mark VI 4 inch.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Webley Mk VI with 4" barrel - .455 Webley]]

=Submachine Guns=
==M1A1 Thompson==
An [[M1A1 Thompson]] appears in the Alpha as the default weapon in Champion Hill mode, fitted with a 50 drum magazine by default, which is impossible for the M1 Thompsons. Sledgehammer refers to it as the "M1928", which is the Thompson variant that could use drums. When reloading, the drum is correctly removed via a sideways movement (as correct as a drum on an M1A1 can be, anyway). An extended drum attachment holds 100 rounds. The initial draw animation involves the player locking open the bolt, then flicking the safety off (although it never moves and is always pointed at fire).

In the beta a conversion to .30-06 is available; this appears to be based on [[Media:Thompson .30-06.jpg|this image]] of a prototype M1A1 in .30-06, though the in-game version lacks the necessary lengthened receiver and recoil spring tube of that version. As of the official release, this conversion has been removed and replaced with a “30 round fast mag”, the name being fairly self-explanatory. The iron sights of the [[M1928 Thompson]] are also an available customization.

==MP40==
The [[MP40]] is an SMG available in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon.

===MP41===
The "?" stock adds an old Bergmann-style rifle wood stock, turning the weapon into the [[MP41]].

The "Shredder" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a blueprint for the [[MP40]], turning it into a heavily customized MP41. It also briefly appears in the Alpha trailer, kitted out with a skeleton Thompson grip, an [[MP18]] barrel and a magazine similar in design to the ''Trommelmagazin 08''.

==Owen==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by 2nd Lieutenant Riggs as his main weapon of choice throughout the campaign. For whatever reason, its model is mirrored, with the charging handle and sights on the left side instead of the right.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum.

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] is featured in the game. The [[PPS-43]] magwell is no longer present from the ''WWII'' model and the cyclic rate more closely matches real PPSh rates. The barrel is lengthened just beyond the heatshield and has a threaded endcap for muzzle customization.

==Sten Mk II==
The [[Sten Mk II]] is featured in the game. The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon, instead of the more accurate 50 round magazine from the [[Lanchester Mk. I]]. A .45 ACP conversion is also available.

It is Sergeant Arthur Kingsley's main weapon of choice in the campaign.

[[File:CODVanguard Trailer StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees. No shells are ejected when firing either. Unlike this shot, the Sten is held by the magwell in first person. Fortunately, all of the above issues have been fixed in the beta.]]

===Sten Mk I/Sten Mk VI Hybrid===
The "Wildwood" submachine gun in the Frontline weapons pack is a hybrid combining original Sten Mk I with the pistol grip, fixed stock and suppressor from the [[Sten Mk VI]].
[[File:Sten MkI.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk I - 9x19mm Parabellum]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns as an available SMG. In the campaign, it is used by Japanese soldiers, and is Lieutenant Wade Jackson's weapon of choice. Like in ''World at War'' its usage is once again too exaggerated and overrepresented this time even more bizarrely being also used by the Germans in the Beatrice operator cinematic. It appears to be modelled after the later war version of the Type 100, which is odd given that the game's pacific campaign takes place before 1944.

The ''Trommelmagazin 08'' from the Luger is incorrectly available as an extended drum magazine for the weapon. It should be noted a 9mm magazine would never work in an 8mm SMG, and the magazine is inserted the wrong way round.

=Shotguns=
==Becker revolving shotgun==
The [[Becker revolving shotgun]] appears in the game as the "Einhorn Revolving", changed from the more generic "Revolving Shotgun" name seen in the beta. Being a rare and sophisticated European shotgun (only about 100 examples being ever produced, at a time when only the U.S. has thought of issuing combat shotguns), it was unlikely to have been used as a military weapon during WWII in reality. Nevertheless, it shows up very frequently in the campaign as the shotgun of choice for enemy forces, both German and even Japanese. At the start of every reload, the ejector rod is correctly used to remove the last spent shell.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine is available as the "fast mag" for the Becker. The cylinder itself is replaced with a fixed plug that serves as a receiver; however, the spent cartridges are still ejected through the loading port on the right, making the whole thing mechanically questionable (i.e., in reality, it would have required an entire Dardick-style do-over of the feed system). More plausible modifications change the caliber of the shotgun and the number of rounds in the cylinder - which is mechanically plausible, but the Becker was only ever in 16 gauge.

==Browning Auto-5==
The [[Browning Auto-5]] appears in the game as the "Gracey Auto", replacing the generic "Auto-Loading Shotgun" name from the beta. The in-game Auto-5 anachronistically has the post-1953 Auto-5s' "Speed-load" features; the gun can be reloaded without holding down the carrier/bolt release button (which pre-1953 Auto-5s required), and the first shell inserted into an empty Auto-5 is automatically chambered.

One of the attachments allows you to reload all 5 shells at once, making it far faster than the base reload. Another attachment adds the same fictional detachable magazine from ''WWII's'' [[Walther automatic shotgun|Walther toggle-action]], with a rather optimistic 7-round capacity.

[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]]

==Lincoln Jeffries Double Barreled Shotgun==
A [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|full-length double-barreled shotgun]] with exposed hammers is available as simply the "Double Barrel". It is implied to be based on a luxury model developed by airgun manufacturer Lincoln Jeffries due to its distinct-looking hammers and was actually called that in the game files. Humorously, the weapon can be dual-wielded in multiplayer and, in a fairly interesting oversight, foregrips can be mounted too close to the trigger, blocking the shotgun from breaking open all the way.
[[File:Lincolnjeffries.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lincoln Jeffries SxS double-barreled shotgun - 12 gauge]]

==Winchester Model 1897==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] appears under the "Combat Shotgun" name. Despite having the same name as in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', it is actually the riot gun variant rather than the "Trench Gun" variant seen in previous titles, since it lacks the distinct heat shield and bayonet lug. As of the initial release, the hammer appears to be bugged and appears twice in the cocked and uncocked positions immediately after firing and during the empty reload. The proper “Trench Gun” barrel can be unlocked via the Gunsmith.

The weapon uses 16 gauge shells by default, but can be modified to fire 12 gauge ones. Other modifications include a detachable magazine and detachable drum magazine, both based on the fictional magazines used on the Toggle-Action" in ''WWII''.

=Rifles=
Unlike the previous WWII games, rifles are sorted into three categories much like the recent games: assault rifles, marksman rifles and sniper rifles. Assault rifles basically consist of fully-automatic rifles including LMGs like the BAR and Charlton, as well as the burst-fire Breda PG. Marksman rifles consist of semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles consist of bolt-action rifles fitted with scopes (or iron sights if customized that way).

==Arisaka Type 38==
The [[Arisaka Type 38]] long rifle is featured as the "Type 99," though the in-game default caliber is the original 6.5x50mm Japanese cartridge and the in-game rifle also has the Type 38's rear sight. In the campaign, it is the main rifle of the Japanese soldiers, used both scoped and unscoped and often fitted with a bayonet. Stripper clips cannot be used with the sniper scope, despite the latter being offset.

The "5.6 mm magazines" attachment adds an [[MG13]] magazine, which however only contains 8 rounds and functions as a detachable one. The "fast magazine" attachment adds a Gew.43 style magazine, containing an absurdly small 3 rounds. A completely fictional drum magazine is also available.

==Breda PG==
The Costa Rican contract [[Breda PG]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "ITRA Burst". The weapon fires at 950 RPM, which is incorrect as the real weapon fired at 600 RPM. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.92x57mm; conversions to 6.5x50mm and .303 British are available as attachments.

[[File:Vanguard Breda PG (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Breda PG rifle.]]

==Fedorov Avtomat==
The [[Fedorov Avtomat]] returns from ''WWII'' as the "Automaton". It has a much higher rate of fire than in ''WWII'', and comes with some sort of ladder sight acting as a viewing window on top of the actual rear sight. A monstrously large fictional double-drum mag (apparently based on the Beta C-Mag) is available as a attachment option, as well as a conversion to 7.62x54mmR / 6.5x59mm Arisaka, with fictional extended magazines for both calibers. Another update gives it a magazine that looks like real-life 10 rounds one, but oddly holds 25 rounds. It can also be equipped with an extended barrel based on the experimental M1924 (which is incorrectly referred to as "M1912" in many sources).
[[File:Fedorovavtomat.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Fedorov Avtomat - 6.5x50mm Arisaka]]

==Gewehr 43==
The [[Gewehr 43]] is featured. It incorrectly feeds from a curved box magazine whereas in reality, it is straight. A fictional short, straight 8-round magazine can be added with the "fast mags" attachment. 20-round extended box magazines are also available; this is one of the rare occasions when ''CoD'' gets it right (although it is not known for certain if these magazines were widely used or even available during WWII).

[[File:VanguardG43equipStalingrad2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The initial equip animation always has the gun empty with the bolt locked back. The player inspects the magazine the performs a full reload.]]

==Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr==
The [[Gustloff Volkssturmgewehr]] returns from ''WWII'' as its namesake. Despite being developed in late 1944, it makes a lot of anachronistic appearances in the flashbacks before 1945 in the campaign, all the way up to the Tobruk mission in 1941. As expected, it is full-auto, despite the existence of a full-auto Volkssturmgewehr only being a rumour based on the misinterpretation of the name Volkssturmgewehr as representing "Volks-sturmgewehr" (lit. "people-assault rifle") rather than "Volkssturm-gewehr" (lit. "Volkssturm-rifle"). The weapon is slightly visually modified, with a thicker magazine and slightly rounded handguard.

An oversized double-drum mag based on the Beta C-Mag and the MG34/MG15 double drum appears in game as an extended magazine attachment.

The weapon has a visual glitch in that no rifle casings are ejected when the magazine is below half its capacity.

[[File:Vanguard Volkssturmgewehr (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|A preview of the Volkssturmgewehr in the beta.]]

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle appears in the game. Unlike in ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]'', the rounds left on the stripper clip when reloading are tracked properly, which applies to other stripper-clip loaded weapons too. The stripper clip is used with iron sights or other small scopes - larger sniper scopes use round-by-round reloads, as the chamber is blocked and stripper clips cannot be used.

A fictional 3-round detachable magazine exists as the fast mag option- detachable magazines would never work with a Mauser rifle due to the design of the receiver rails and feed system. However, the extended magazine is real, based on the 20-rounder [[Gewehr 98]] trench magazine, but is incorrectly depicted as detachable.

[[File:Vanguardgermankar98kstalingrad.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German soldier holds the rifle during the battle of Stalingrad.]]

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk. I==
The [[Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] appears exclusively in the campaign, and only feeds from a single 5-round clip rather than the usual 10 rounds from two clips.
[[File:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[File:Codvanleeenfield1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Lee-Enfield in the hand of a British soldier as he hops off a tank in North Africa.]]

==M1 Garand==
The [[M1 Garand]] appears in the Beta, classed as a marksman rifle. The mid-clip tactical reload features the player character retaining the half-spent clip in the rifle, but the chambered round is not shown ejecting as they pull back the op-rod/charging handle. Unlike in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', this is not a "sticky" Garand, and thus does not need to have the bolt pushed or smacked back into battery after loading a new clip.

Using either the ".30-06 12 Round Mags" or the "16 Round Drum" option makes the weapon resemble the T20E3 Garand, an experimental model designed to use detachable magazines. In Warzone the 12 round mags are increased to the correct 20 round capacity they have in real life. While the straight BAR magazine is real, the drum is not (which is borrowed from ''WWII'''s "Toggle-Action").

It can also take 16-round drums of .30-06 or 6.5 Arisaka (which reuse the drum model from the "Toggle-Action" from ''WWII''), or be rechambered to .303 Enfield.]]

==Mosin Nagant M1891/30==
The [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] appears in the game as the "3-Line Rifle". A scoped variant called "Requiem" is used by Polina Petrova as her main weapon of choice throughout the campaign, originally belonging to her father. The stripper clip is incorrectly knocked out of the weapon by the bolt- in reality, it would need to be removed by hand before operating the bolt closed.

A very anachronistic detachable 3-round magazine appears as the fast mag option for the Mosin (despite the fact that it is longer than the 5-round magazine). A larger detachable magazine option is also available. Both are housed inside the shell of the old integral magazine, making it tricky to fit rounds into them, given the fact the detachable magazine is now narrower than the old one. This may be why they are longer, as single-stack rounds might be able to fit into these magazines. Additionally, the magazine catch to release the magazines is not attached to the magazine well, it is instead attached to the bottom of the detachable magazine, begging the question of how it is supposed to detach the magazine from the rifle.

While the third person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading.

[[File: VanguardM9130ProperBarrel(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the M1891/30 Mosin Nagant with no scope.]]

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] appears in the game as the "STG44". It is used anachronistically in the campaign levels set in Stalingrad in August 1942 when in reality it was first issued in late 1943. It also makes a bizarre appearance in weapon crates found in the Bougainville level set in the Pacific theater in 1943.

Modifications include an 45-round drum, which appears to be a heavily modified MG42 drum seemingly rechambered for the 7.92x33mm Kurz. Magazines for ".30 Russian short", i.e. the Soviet 7.62x39mm, are also available; this cartridge is period-accurate as it was produced and tested during WWII, but it was never historically used on the StG 44. The 7.62x39mm magazines are also incorrectly modeled as straight magazines; 7.62x39mm rounds have a significant taper to them, giving their magazines a distinctive curve.

While the HUD states the proper 7.92x33mm chambering, the weapon can be seen ejecting 8mm Mauser casings. The weapon is also depicted in the "Watchful Glare" calling card.

==Sudayev AS-44==
The [[AS-44|Sudayev AS-44]] assault rifle returns from ''WWII'', and like the Fedorov Avtomat has a much higher rate of fire than before. It is incorrectly chambered in 7.62x39mm rather than 7.62x41mm.
[[File:SudayevAS44.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Sudayev AS-44 (Model 4) - 7.62x41mm M43]]

==Tokarev SVT-40==
The [[SVT-40]] returns from ''WWII'', this time more accurately being used by Soviet soldiers and Partisans. It features a short "fast mag" and an extremely long, curved magazine seemingly inspired by 45-round AK magazines. A short barreled version also exists that reflects the short barreled SKT40.

[[File:VanguardSVT40PUScope(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the SVT-40 fitted with a PU Scope. The scope is mounted using a Mosin Nagant scope mount.]]

=Machine Guns=
==Bren Gun==
The [[Bren gun]] appears in the game as a light machine gun. It has a much more accurate fire rate than in ''Call of Duty: WWII'', but with the rear sight incorrectly mounted on the barrel (or rather, not mounted, since it just floats in mid-air; this appears to be a bug). The player also grips the gas tube, a sure-fire way to burn your hand. The fictional 100-round drum magazine from ''WWII'' also returns in Gunsmith as a possible magazine attachment for it, as opposed to the real-life pan for the MkI. Short "fast mags" are also an option, which appear to be based on the Lee-Enfield magazines, scaled up to fit 20 rounds.

[[File:Vanguard Bren (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren Mk.2 in the gunsmith preview. Note that the rear sight is correctly attached to the receiver here, suggesting that its in-game location is a bug.]]

==Charlton Automatic Rifle==
The [[Charlton Automatic Rifle]] returns from ''WWII'' as an assault rifle, under the same "NZ-41" name. As with ''WWII'', its model is mirrored. Its default magazine model, the standard-size 10-round SMLE magazines, hold a ludicrous 30 rounds in gameplay. It can be modified with an extended Bren magazine.

[[File: VanguardCharltonAR30roundmag(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Charlton Automatic Rifle with a 30 round magazine that holds 45 rounds in game.]]

==Degtyaryov DP-27==
A [[Degtyaryov DP-27]] with the pistol grip of the [[Degtyaryov DPM|DPM]] variant is indexed as the "DP27" in ''Vanguard''. It has a noticeably higher rate of fire than the real weapon, and the pan magazine holds 63 rounds (like on the tank-mounted DT variants) instead of 47.

An upgraded pan magazine holds 105 rounds, while the 30 round "speed belt" upgrade converts the weapon into effectively an [[Degtyaryov RP-46|RP-46]], which is anachronistic, and also peculiar as a "speed" option, as a belt should take longer to reload then a magazine. With this upgrade, the chamber still has a round in it when reloading from empty. The player holds the weapon with their fingers in the way of the bolt, which would be very painful in real life. Additionally, one of the stock options uses the stock of the [[PKM]], which is anachronistic by a few decades.

[[Image:RP46.jpg|thumb|none|400px|RP-46 - 7.62x54mm R]]

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle]] appears with a stylized and elongated handguard by default, although the HUD icon had the correct handguard length during the Alpha. It is able to switch between full-auto (at a slow fire rate of 400 RPM) and semi-auto, which is incorrect: the real M1918A2's fire selector instead had a slow full-auto and fast full-auto option, while the earlier M1918 could switch between semi-auto and ''fast'' full-auto (500-650 RPM). A 30 round curved magazine is available, which supposedly fires .50 BMG rounds. It is classed as an assault rifle.

Anachronistic 10 round aftermarket magazines are available as the "12 round fast mags", which holds 2 rounds too many. The late-war carrying handle is anachronistic for most campaign missions the BAR appears in.
[[File:BAR1918.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06]]

[[File:Vanguard BAR (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The BAR in the Gunsmith preview, with its unusual handguard, WWI-era wood stock, and stylized flat-bottomed magazine.]]

==MG42==
The [[MG42]] returns from ''WWII'' with a much more accurate rate of fire. The drum holds a correct 50 rounds in the campaign, but an incorrect 125 in multiplayer. For some reason it lacks a muzzle in the multiplayer by default and more bizarrely the proper muzzle isn't available even as attachment. The belt links are incorrectly depicted as disintegrating. Like the DP-27, the fast mag option adds a belt of 50 rounds, which would more than likely take longer to reload than the drum in real life. The MG42 can be rechambered for 6.5x50mm Arisaka rounds or even more ludicrously, .50 BMG. A square belt box appears as an extended option, this box is anachronistic, borrowed from the post-war [[MG3]].

In the campaign, the MG42 is used extensively, both in man-portable form by "Jagermorders" or German heavy soldiers, and mounted on vehicles and emplacements. It also makes a bizarre appearance in the Bougainville mission set in the Pacific theater, used in Japanese positions, and Wade Jackson even uses a modified one to clear a Japanese airfield.

[[File:CODV MG42 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|MG42 with drum magazine, used by a German soldier.]]

==Type 11==
The [[Type 11 light machine gun]] is available. It reloads in a very similar manner to [[Battlefield V]]'s default Type 11; the hopper is removed and exchanged for a new one, or a clip is simply inserted if one is expended. One upgrade is a completely fictional [[ZB-26]]-style straight magazine holding 20 rounds.

[[File: VanguardType11(2021).jpeg|thumb|none|600px|Gunsmith view of the Type 11 light machine gun fitted with a bipod.]]

==Vickers Mk. I==
A man-portable depiction of the [[Vickers|Vickers Mk. I]] is available in the game as a killstreak called the "Deathmachine" (or "Frankengun" during the Alpha). It has 100 rounds, which are explosive, as well as unusable AA sights. One of the voice lines when deploying it yells "Spinning up Deathmachine!" implying that the devs believe that the Vickers is some form of gatling gun, not unlike the [[M134]] used in previous games in the franchise. When the weapon is empty, the ammo crate is still modeled with rounds in it.

=Grenades & Explosives=
==Mk 2 Grenade==
American [[Mk 2 hand grenade]]s are used by US forces during the campaign. It is also the standard grenade in multiplayer.

[[File:GasGrenadeMk.jpg|thumb|none|200px|Mk.V CN Gas Grenade]]

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
[[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]]s can be seen lying on the ground next to a German helmet in the teaser trailer. It is also carried by Nazi zombies.
[[Image:M24handgrenade.JPG|thumb|none|300px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" high-explosive fragmentation hand grenade]]

==Mills Bomb==
[[Mills Bomb]]s are carried by British paratroopers in the reveal trailer. They also appear in artwork for the Armour Plates field upgrade and the Warmachine field upgrade.
[[File:Mills Bomb SGM-1.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 36M Mk.I "Mills Bomb" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade.]]

==No. 69 Mk. 1==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade|No. 69 Mk. 1]] is seen in the Alpha as a stun grenade. The character throws it using only one hand in a rather tactical and too modern manner for the setting due to reusing ''Modern Warfare'' mechanics.
[[Image:69grenade.jpg|thumb|none|200px|No. 69 Mk. 1 High-Explosive hand grenade.]]

==No. 82 "Gammon Bomb"==
The [[Gammon Grenade|No. 82 Gammon Bomb]] appears as the "Impact Grenade" in the Alpha.
[[Image:Gammon.jpg|thumb|none|No. 82 Gammon Grenade]]

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] returns in the Alpha as the "Proximity Mine", functioning like a [[M18 Claymore]] from other titles.
[[Image:SMine35.jpg|thumb|none|400px|S-Mine 35. Note the fuze is in the center of the mine body; the later S-Mine 44's fuze was instead offset.]]

==Type 97 Hand Grenade==

==Unidentified smoke grenade==
An unidentified stun/smoke grenade is used by a British paratrooper in the reveal trailer.

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 41==
The German [[Flammenwerfer 41]] is available as part of the "Flamenaut" streak, which also includes a heavy armored suit like the "Flame Trooper" from ''[[Battlefield 1]]''. This suit obscures your vision but gives you much more health. The weapon is incorrectly referred to as the [[Flammenwerfer 35]].
[[Image:Flammenwerfer 41.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Flammenwerfer mit Strahlpatrone 41]]

==M2 Flamethrower==
The [[M2 Flamethrower]] is exclusive to the campaign; it is used by an American soldier during the Pacific segment, and is later taken and used by Wade Jackson to burn out Japanese positions. An unusable M2 Flamethrower is also seen on a table in the buy round of the "Champion Hill" mode.
[[File:M2-2FlameAth.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M2-2 flamethrower]]

=Launchers=
==Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I==
The [[Ordnance SBML 2 inch Mortar|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I]] appears as the the "MK11 Launcher". The "Warmachine" killstreak is also a fictionalized depiction of it that fires impact-detonated grenades and has a drum magazine like the AGS-17.
[[Image:2 inch Smoke Mortar.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Bomb Thrower, 2 inch, Mk I (UK) / 2 inch Mortar M3 (US) - 50.8mm smoke bomb]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.
[[Image:Bazookasmithsonian.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1 Bazooka - 2.36 inch]]
[[File:Vanguard M1 Bazooka (1).jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in the loadout selection preview.]]

==Panzerfaust==
The [[Panzerfaust]] appears as a usable weapon. Contrary to its single-shot nature in real life, it is erroneously depicted as being reloadable like the Panzerfaust 150, which started development in early 1945.
[[Image:Panzerfaust.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Panzerfaust 60 - 44mm with 149mm warhead]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears in the beta. The igniter wire is missing and it is reloaded in such a way that the rocket would just fall down the tube.

==Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. V Signal Pistol==
The [[Webley & Scott No.1 Mk. V Signal Pistol]] is used several times in key moments throughout the campaign.
[[Image:British-No1-MkV-Flare.jpg|thumb|none|300px|No. 1 Mk. V Signal Pistol - 1 inch]]

=Mounted Weapons=
==3.7 cm Bordkanone==
A German Stuka dive bomber in the trailer can be seen with two 3.7 cm ''Bordkanonen''. In the final level, gun pods not yet mounted on planes can be seen in the airbase.

The lack of dive brakes indicates that this is a Ju 87G-1 variant; these variants of the Stuka would only see production at some point after January 1943, making it anachronistic to the Stalingrad setting as depicted in the gameplay reveal.]]

==3 Inch/50 Mark 2 Model 4==
The stranded American navy cargo ship has several 3 Inch/50 Mark 2 Model 4 deck guns.

==15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval gun==
German 15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval guns are destroyed by the British paratroopers during the Merville Gun Battery mission. However, this is inaccurate since there were no such guns nor Regelbau M272 casemates as depicted in-game. The actual guns at Merville were old Skoda houfnice vz 14/19.

==Degtyaryov DT==
A Soviet T-34/85 with a hull-mounted [[Degtyaryov DT]] is seen during the Stalingrad Demo Play-through. It is worth mentioning that this model is anachronistic for the Stalingrad scenario; the earlier T-34/76 would be more correct.

'''''Call of Duty: Vanguard''''' is a first person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision on Xbox One and Series S/X, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Microsoft Windows on November 5th, 2021. It is the eighteenth game in the ''Call of Duty'' franchise and the sixth main WWII title in the series, following Sledgehammer's previous game, ''[[Call of Duty: WWII]]''. It features a campaign mode with characters from multiple Allied countries fighting on the Western, Eastern, African and Pacific fronts. It also has a Zombies mode, which is developed by Treyarch instead of Sledgehammer.

{{VG Title|Call of Duty: Vanguard}}

=Overview=
Like ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)|Modern Warfare]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War|Black Ops Cold War]]'' before it, Vanguard uses the Gunsmith system for its weapon attachments and customisation.

=Pistols=
==Colt M1911A1==
A [[Colt M1911A1]] appears in the trailer, used by an American pilot.
[[Image:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|350px|none|World War II Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP. This was an issued U.S. Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1]]

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08]] is seen in the reveal trailer.
[[Image:P08Luger1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Luger P08 - 9x19mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.]]
[[File:CODV P08 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A German tank commander with his Luger.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==MP40==
German soldiers in the reveal trailer wield [[MP40]]s.
[[File:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CODVanguard PromoArt MP40.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 held in first-person, as seen in the promotional art. Compared to previous depictions of the MP40 in the series, the player character holds the MP40 by the magazine well instead of grasping the magazine itself, the latter option likely to induce a malfunction.]]

==Owen==
The [[Owen Gun]] is carried by second lieutenant Riggs at the beginning of the trailer.
[[File:Owen MkI 1942.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Owen Mk I - 9x19mm. This is an earlier version of the Owen gun, featuring a finned barrel, early wireframe stock (some wireframe stocks have a clip that holds an oil bottle), and solid trigger housing. The parkerized finish is a post-war refurbishment.]]

==PPSh-41==
Soviet Soldiers are seen carrying [[PPSh-41]]s at the beginning of the trailer.
[[File:PPSH-01-SMG.jpg|thumb|none|400px|PPSh-41 with 71-round drum magazine - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Sten Mk II==
In the teaser, a [[Sten Mk II]] can be seen lying on the ground. It is also featured in the reveal trailer, appearing multiple times.
[[Image:Sten.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum]]
[[Image:CODVanguard_Trailer_StenMK2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Sergeant Kingsley firing the Sten Mk II. Upon further examination, the rear sight appears to have been chopped in half. The few frames of it being fired it appears to be correctly depicted firing from an open bolt, however the bolt never moves forward to fire the round in the chamber for some reason. The bolt is erroneously modeled as an entire solid block extending to the back of the receiver, creating this goof where the bolt clips through the back of the receiver when firing. Also note that, for some reason, the buttplate is rotated 90 degrees.]]

==Thompson Submachine Gun==
What looks like an M1 Thompson is held by a US marine in the reveal trailer.
[[Image:M1Thompson.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1 Thompson with 20-round magazine - .45 ACP]]

[[Image:M9130.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Full-length, Soviet Mosin Nagant M91/30 - 7.62x54mm R]]
[[File:CODV Mosin 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Lieutenant Petrova aims with the Mosin in the trailer. Notice the offset 4-Power NTC Kogaku scope which in a continuity error was a PEM scope in the previous scene showing the first person perspective.]]

The [[Lee-Enfield|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I]] is seen in promotional media. It is also seen in the hands of British paratroopers as well.

Bosoxboy521: /* KSP-45 = Carl Gustav M/45? */

= Miscellaneous =
== US Air Force Pilot Survival Knife ==
A US Air Force Pilot Survival Knife issued to US Air Force jet pilots flying over Vietnam is carried by Woods in promotional media. The same knife but with a different style of scabbard is also carried by a yet unknown character in the reveal trailer.

== Vietnam War Period US Military Tomahawk ==
A tomahawk based on those used by US forces during the Vietnam War is available in multiplayer.

== Hybrid AK Bayonet ==
What appears to be a hybrid between the basic AK-47 bayonet and the AKM Type II Bayonet is tossed by a Spetsnaz operative in the multiplayer reveal trailer.
[[Image:AKM type 2 bayonet.jpg|thumb|none|400px|An AKM type 2 bayonet with scabbard.]]

== Shtrafbat Knife ==
What appears to be a Russian Shtrafbat knife is used by Spetsnaz operatives to dispatch the walkman using US soldier in the multiplayer reveal trailer and is carried by multiplayer operator Stone inaccurately in a [http://monkeyedgeblog.com/cool-guy-kit-the-raf-aircrew-knife-as-used-by-the-sas/ RAF aircrew knife sleeve sewn sheath]. It is most likely anachronistic.

== Vietnam War Period MACV-SOG Knife ==
A Vietnam War period MACV-SOG knife is carried by multiplayer operatives Sims and Stone.

== KA-BAR Knife ==
Th player character takes a serrated KA-BAR Knife from a dead enemy operative at the beginning of "Nowhere Left to Run". It can be used throughout the mission.

== Unidentified Knife ==
The basic knife of the game is an unknown model.

= Attachments =
== Optics ==

=== "Microflex LED" ===
The "Microflex LED" is loosely based on the Docter or Noblex quicksight red dot for shotguns with the lens having a more conventional shape similar to the traditional Sightmark Sureshot Reflex Sight/Adco SOLO Sight. All of these red dot models are heavily anachronistic.

=== C79 Optical Sight ===
The C79 Optical Sight appears as the "Visiontech 2x". It is slightly anachronistic as it was introduced towards the end of the Cold War, in 1989.

=== Colt Scope ===
The Colt scope appears as "Axial Arms 3x".

=== Elbit Falcon ===
The Israeli Elbit Falcon sight appears as the "Millstop Reflex" and its description mentions inaccurately that it is produced in the USA. Unlike in the first Black Ops, however, this time its appearance might not be anachronistic since this game has 1980s segments.

=== Kobra Red Dot Sight ===
The Russian Kobra red dot sight appears as the "Kobra Red Dot" and its description mentions inaccurately that it is of Soviet origin. This time it is depicted with its proper circular tube unlike the earlier ''Black Ops'' iteration which had a fictional squareish shape. Its depiction in the 1980s is anachronistic as it was developed in the 1990s or 2000s in reality.

=== "Sillix Holoscout" ===
The "Sillix Holoscout" is a red dot sight of unknown model and make. However, its design is too modern for the Cold War era and resembles in some aspects the Steiner Optics CQT which was unveiled at Shot Show 2019.

=== SUIT Sight ===
The SUIT sight appears as the "Royal & Kross 4x". The real scope's right side is depicted being on the left in game.

=== Tasco Red Dot Scope ===
On handguns, the "Millstop Reflex" sight takes the form of a Tasco Red Dot Scope. It’s anachronistic considering the fact that it was first released in 1994.

=== "Quickdot LED" ===
The "Quickdot LED" appears to be inspired by the C-More red dot sight. Most likely anachronistic.

=== "Hawksmoor" ===
The "Hawksmoor" appears to be a fictional and generic machinegun red dot sight combining elements from DCL110AD-3X and Trijicon MGRS Machine Gun Reflex Sight and a battery compartment resembling Meprolight Mepro M5 red dot sight. Even though it is based mainly on MG red dot sights, which are typically larger, the in game sight is depicted as being significantly smaller as to pass for a regular red dot sight. All of the referenced models and the concept of an MG red dot sight itself are heavily anachronistic.

== Muzzle devices ==
=== SilencerCo Salvo 12 ===
The SilencerCo Salvo 12 suppressor appears as the "Agency Whisper Choke". Its depiction in the 1980s is anachronistic as it was introduced in 2014.

=== Sionics Two-Stage Sound Suppressor ===
The Sionics Two-Stage Sound Suppressor appears as the "Agency Suppressor". It is depicted as being attachable to rifles which is dubious to work in reality.

=== PBS-4 ===
The PBS-4 appears as the "Agency Silencer".

=== PBS-1 ===
The PBS-1 appears as the "Silencer".

=== .45 ACP Knight's Armament Suppressor ===
The .45 ACP Knight's Armament Suppressor appears as the "Agency Suppressor" for handguns.

=== Wilson Combat Multi-Comp Bushing Compensator ===
The Wilson Combat Multi-Comp Bushing Compensator appears as the "Muzzle Brake .45 APC" for the M1911. It is anachronistic as it was introduced at some point in the late 2000s.

== Foregrips ==
=== A1 Pistol Grip ===
A slightly modified A1 pistol grip was featured in the alpha as the "MI6 Ergonomic Grip". Using A1 grips as foregrips was actually something done by the MACV-SOG during the Vietnam War so this can be considered the only foregrip that is period appropriate in the whole game.

=== "Infiltrator Grip/Red Cell Foregrip" ===
The "Infiltrator Grip" (known as "Marshal Foregrip" in the alpha) used on western rifles and "Red Cell Foregrip" used on western SMGs appear to be inspired by the BCM Gunfighter vertical grip. This kind of foregrip is anachronistic for the 1980s.

The "Marshal Foregrip" used on eastern bloc weapons is a chopped BS-1 grenade launcher grip.

=== "Front Grip" ===
The "Front Grip" is essentially a chopped AIM grip.

=== "Patrol Grip" ===
The "Patrol Grip" used on western weapons is a modified FN Minimi style grip.

The "Patrol Grip" used on eastern bloc weapons is an AKM-63 foregrip.

=== "Foregrip" ===
The "Foregrip" appears to be inspired by the aluminum Kley Zion or LMT grip.

=== "Field Agent Grip" ===
The "Field Agent Grip" used on western weapons is an FN FAL grip.

== Magazines ==
=== "40 Rd" ===
The "40 Rd" magazine used on western weapons is a fictional quad stack steel STANAG magazine inspired by the SureFire MAG5-60. The SureFire MAG5-60 is anachronistic for the 1980s and the concept of a quad stack STANAG magazine didn't exist back then.

The "40 Rd" magazine used on eastern bloc weapons is a standard steel 7.62x39mm 40 round magazine.

== Barrels ==
=== TEC-9 barrel & shroud ===
A TEC-9 style barrel and shroud are used as the "Cavalry Lancer" and "Paratrooper" barrel attachments for western SMGs.

=== Fluted AR barrel ===
Custom AR pattern fluted barrels appear as the "Cavalry Lancer" and "Strike Team" barrel attachments for western rifles. This is most likely anachronistic as fluted AR barrels appear to be a modern thing.

=== AK "Swiss Grater" Upper Handguard ===
What is known as "Swiss Grater" Upper Handguard for AK weapons appears as "Cavalry Lancer" and "Paratrooper" barrel attachments for the AK-74u.

== Laser Sights & Flashlights==
=== Generic Laser Sight ===
The "Steady Aim Laser" and "SWAT 5mw Laser Sight" used on eastern bloc weapons appear to be a fictional and generic design loosely based on modern laser pointers with adjustment knobs. This is anachronistic as the earliest laser sights of such compact and practical design were 90s laser sights such as the SureFire L70 or L75 which were introduced in 1990 and 1991 respectively.

=== AN/PAQ 4C Laser Sight ===
The "Steady Aim Laser" used on western weapons is loosely based on the Insight Technology AN/PAQ 4C laser sight. It is anachronistic as it was produced in 1993-1999.

=== Steiner DBAL ===
The "SWAT 5mw Laser Sight" used on western weapons is loosely based on the Steiner DBAL which is heavily anachronistic.

=== Maglite Flashlight ===
A small Maglite C-cell flashlight appears as the "Mounted Flashlight". The C-cell Maglite itself is period appropriate as it was introduced in 1981, however, it is mounted via a SureFire barrel clamp. A SureFire flashlight being mounted to the barrel was a configuration which was actually utilized in the 90s for example by Delta operators during the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993.

= Live Action Trailers =
== "Teaser" Trailer ==
===Thompson SMG===
Carried by a US soldier deploying from a chopper in Vietnam.
===M1 Garand===
===M1 Carbine???===
===M14===
===Unidentified US Rifle===
An unknown rifle carried by US troops during anti Vietnam War protests. Possibly Springfield M1903?
===Unidentified Russian Rifle===
Unknown rifles are being paraded by Soviet troops. Possibly Mosin Nagants or some of the Soviet semi auto rifles?
===M1 flamethrower===
Used by a US soldier probably in Vietnam.

= Discussion =

== Weapons I Saw ==

I saw the AK47, or I not so sure if it's an AKM or Type 56. Then I saw an RPD LMG, a FN FNC battle rifle, XM177E2 with a flattop, although to be fair, flattop was around in the 80's. Then I saw a Colt 1911A1, a Remington 700 sniper rifle, and a AKS-74U Carbine. I'm not sure if the M16 appears to be a M16A1 or XM16E1. This "Commando" however does have a forward assist, but it has a A1 pistol grip, making this gun not the Colt 733.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 15:13, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
:The AK looks like an AKM, I think. The XM177 appears to be based on the Commando from the first Black Ops, but we'll see. Also, nice work getting on this page so quick! I was ready to start it later tonight, you beat me to it. --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 15:29, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
::For clarification, I'm the one who started the page, not the guy above :P Anyway, the AK is actually an AK-47 (but with an AKM's slant compensator); note the gas block and the front sight, and the milled receiver is also seen in the trailer, though the specific shot is flipped. --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 15:41, 26 August 2020 (EDT)

:As for the "SOCIMI Type 821", that looks like MW's Uzi without the stock. I think a lot of the guns are supposed to be shared between these two games, judging by the Warzone integration and other cross-era guns like the AK-47, M1911, SKS ect.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 16:11, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
::Naw, the rear sight's position and the folding stock mechanism below it indicate that it's a SOCIMI. --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 16:33, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
:::I see now, though it still looks a bit Uzi-like. Maybe it is new attachments/furniture; I guess time will tell. --[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 17:32, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
::::I'm replacing the screencaps by 4K ones; the relevant image now shows more details about the SOCIMI. --[[User:Ultimate94ninja|Ultimate94ninja]] ([[User talk:Ultimate94ninja|talk]]) 13:43, 27 August 2020 (EDT)

A couple leaked images I found from the game's Reddit page (may not reflect content in final version or even open beta/pre-alpha/etc.):

Multiplayer screen showing a customized LMG: https://preview.redd.it/yap84l0silj51.jpg?width=2208&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08e974eb33d15ceec5988ed578cd913930ee053f

Campaign screen showing an M16 (called M16A1): https://preview.redd.it/a8gvpo0silj51.jpg?width=2208&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=09a14d017bef3e5e54ba18c69e13a90ec22e076e

In addition, from what I've heard from a few content creators on YouTube who managed to see some campaign gameplay footage, other appearing weapons include an MP5, G3 (known as Krieg-6), Type 63 assault rifle, SPAS-12, the China Lake grenade launcher, and a recurve bow or crossbow. As said earlier, these may not necessarily be in the final game, so take them with a grain of salt.
--[[User:MJ79|MJ79]] ([[User talk:MJ79|talk]]) 09:08, 28 August 2020 (EDT)
: A type Type 63 would be an interesting addition. Was it mentioned specifically as a Type 63 or could it be someone confusing it with an SKS with a 30 round detachable magazine? --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 09:22, 28 August 2020 (EDT)
: I can't exactly tell; it said "Type 63" in a list of leaked stuff somewhere, but there's nothing visual to confirm this yet. It's all speculation. --[[User:MJ79|MJ79]] ([[User talk:MJ79|talk]]) 09:34, 28 August 2020 (EDT)

== Finally ==

Well, took them long enough. After all the super secret projector puzzles and Warzone scavenger hunts. Look pretty cool, though. I love the 1980s Cold War, it was a pretty aesthetic time for weapons and military hardware.

So, what's on everyone's wishlists? Because I'm weird, I went and [https://docs.google.com/document/d/10Pq9qxz1gL8aJj5ckvSpUClZ3lbruD4e53HjJziTQ8M/edit?usp=sharing made my dream weapons list] shortly after speculation about this game's existence started. I'm just hoping for period-appropriate weapons that actually make sense for the setting; I thought ''Modern Warfare'' was pretty good with that. Like, can we finally have a standard AK-74? Please? --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 16:04, 26 August 2020 (EDT)

:Wouldn't mind seeing the Czech Vz. 58, that rifle is really underrepresented in games and would fit in well in this setting. I did notice the shorty AK that is shown being suppressed in the trailer has a correct AKS-74U rear sight, which hopefully is retroactively made a usable variant in ''MW''.--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 17:47, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
::Looks like a properly sized AKS-74u barrel instead of the weirdo short barrel from MW2019 too, which is nice. I'm disappointed they went and made a faux Huey though, and the Tomcat also has some issues like vertical stabilizers having too much cant and intake scoops not being slanted forward enough. Also, the infamous backwards Troy BUIS from BLOPS1 makes a return, albeit actually facing the correct direction.--[[User:Aidoru|Aidoru]] ([[User talk:Aidoru|talk]]) 01:24, 27 August 2020 (EDT)
:::I would expect such guns as vz. 61 and vz. 23, and perhaps Stechkin APB. And may be could see the MTs 21-12 autoloader as an Easter egg. But wait, we have the "first results in google pictures" guys, so what am I talking about. --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 19:45, 29 August 2020 (EDT)
That's too realistic and accurate selection. If it is a true Black Ops game, then it should contain exotic, anachronistic and unheard of weapons. --[[User:Nanomat|Nanomat]] ([[User talk:Nanomat|talk]]) 18:56, 26 August 2020 (EDT)
[[File:M4 Carbine First Model (1984).jpg|thumb|none|450px|January 1984 - XM4 Carbine]]
My wish list to have the XM4 Carbine (Colt 720), but it should be more like a gunsmith attachment for the XM177E1. The gun was first made in 1983 by the US Army as a customize XM177E2 with a A1 flash hider and fires M16A2 rounds. Later in January 1984, the 14.5 inch barrel and a A2 pistol grip was add it to the gun referring to as the XM4 Carbine.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 18:21, 27 August 2020 (EDT)

Inb4 they bring back hyper-anachronistic guns like the L96A1 and the infamous FELIN version of the FAMAS again just to troll us.

Hope that will be possible to fight both NVAs, the Vietnam one and the German one. The perfect weapons for them would be FB PM63 and SKS.

:Rick Zeng told me the real reason why they add a flat top and a combination of an XM177 hider and an A1 flash hider is because of legal reasons. You also have to keep in mind that flattop was actually done in the 80s by Olympic Arms, even though back in E3 for Black Ops I, the Commando appears to have a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail, that was introduced in 1993 when Colt developed the M4A1.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 14:05, 27 August 2020 (EDT)

As for the rail, it appears that both in the OG BO1 and this new one, it is based on something like the [[Predator_2#Magnum_Research_Inc._Mark_VII_Desert_Eagle|rail seen on the Predator 2 Deagle]], which I cannot find any info about after many hours of research, I'd wager it is some kind of 80s proto picatinny/weaver rail? --[[User:Nanomat|Nanomat]] ([[User talk:Nanomat|talk]]) 14:20, 27 August 2020 (EDT)

== CAR-15 Variants ==

Now the only reason why I'm doing this is because I have have a feeling that they are going to add some stuffs for the Commando, and possibly the M16A2 soon as gunsmith attachments, so I want to make sure you guys got the whole CAR-15 variants right.

M16A1 Carbine - They are 4 types of M16A1. The first two models are the Colt 651 and 652. These guns have an M16 fix stock rather then a XM177 stock, and it has a 16.5 inch barrel. It was mad in 1971, and later around the early 70s, Colt made the 653 and 654, which have a XM177 stock. Now remember, these guns could have a 14.5 inch barrel, and they have an A1 pistol grip.
[[File:ColtM653Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt 653]]

XM4 Carbine - Now, if you know me, you know that I love the M4 sense I first know about guns, but I'm not going to be like back then and name every single AR-15 carbine the M4. The XM4 was first made in 1983 from the US Army as a XM177E2 with an A1 flash hider and it fires M16A2 rounds. In January 1984, the gun have a 14.5 inch barrel and a A2 pistol grip. Later in 1985, the USMC tested the XM4, and in 1986, they add the M16A2 receiver to keep it as a modern designed, consider that they are a huge fan of the M16A2 rifle. In May 1986, Colt made a new M4 barrel and a new M4 handguard, and test results were not really good at the time. Colt ignore the XM4 until 1990, when Bushmaster joined the XM4 Program. In 1991, the gun was renamed the M4 Carbine, and in 1993, the gun have a flattop and it fires full-auto making it the M4A1. So basically the M4 is a modern version of the XM177E2. There are a lot of mythical stories about the XM4.
[[File:M4 Carbine First Model (1984).jpg|thumb|none|450px|January 1984 - XM4 Carbine]]

M16A2 Carbine - Also known as the Colt 723, this weapon was made around 1985, but it didn't appear in service until 1987. Here's some myths that people are saying. The Colt 723 came from the XM177E2, which is not true. It actually came from the M16A1 Carbine. This weapon was very popular of the Delta forces, and it was used in the Invasion of Panama. A short version called the Colt 733 also consider to be a M16A2 carbine.
[[File:Colt-M-16-A-2-m723.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt 723]]

M16A2 Government Carbine - Also known as the Colt 727. Okay, first of, the Colt 727 is not the father of the M4 or M4A1. The XM4 is even older than the Colt 727, because this gun was made in 1988, 4 years after the XM4 was made. I don't get why people are saying the Colt 727 is the father of the XM4! It's not! it's a improve variant of the Colt 723. Now then, mini rant out of the way, it does looks similar to the XM4, but here's the different. It fires full-automatic. The XM4 fires three-round burst. This could be not historically accurate, consider that the game take place in the early 80s.

So there you go, the CAR-15 variants. Now you know about these weapons, and now you know how can we describe these guns. Like I said, I'm only doing this because of gunsmith attachments refence, so I hope you guys get all of these and understand what we going to see for this year's Call of Duty.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 13:58, 2 September 2020 (EDT)

:For more AR variants we also have the [[Colt AR-15 Identification Guide]]. As for why people talk about the 727 leading to the M4, I think this is sort of true as I believe that the first AR variant that introduced the "M4" profile barrel was actually the 727. Before that the XM4 prototypes had either a straight barrel, or a stepped barrel that was thicker at the front but still narrow in front of the front sight. Also, part of this lore about the 727 probably comes from the fact that at its inception the XM4 was intended as a rear echelon weapon not intended for front line combat troops, but a lot of special forces used the 723 and 727 and got a lot of utility from it so when the M4 was finalised it was as a front line combat weapon. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 13:55, 10 September 2020 (EDT)

== One thing that I’m considering about ==

There’s a attachment for the M16A2, and it showcases a 14.5 inch barrel with an Colt 607 handguard. It is that an AR-15 type variant or maybe an weird bizarre XM4 (1986 model) with an Colt 607 handguard, or it a some type of Colt Government AR-15 weapon, but considering that it has a 14.5 inch barrel, it’s not right.--[[User:Treliazz|Treliazz]] ([[User talk:Treliazz|talk]]) 09:51, 10 September 2020 (EDT)

== Black ops get advanced weapons excuse ==

I've seen too many commons overestimating or believing in the myth that military technology is always 10 years ahead of what they adopt or because these guys are some for of ultra secret black ops, they'd get advanced weapons not available at the time.

:We all know that this is just an excuse to add fancy weaponry and stuff to the games. It is obvious that even the most tacticoolest spec ops units cannot get ''weapons that haven't been created yet''. It's just that the "vintage" Black Ops games always come after some COD game that introduced something groundbreaking in terms of weapon customization, so naturally the BO game has to follow suit. Think about it, BO1 came after MW2 which introduced a great variety of attachments, this essentially made it impossible for them to shy away from the red dots and fancy weapons and in turn effectively turning the rather bland 60s setting into a modern and tacticoolized reimagining of the 60s. Now after MW19, BO Cold War is going through the same process of tacticoolizing the 80s in order to be able to compete with the gunsmith of the previous game. --[[User:Nanomat|Nanomat]] ([[User talk:Nanomat|talk]]) 20:31, 26 September 2020 (EDT)

It also fits more in line with the timeframe as well.

Hi,

I just recently watched the episode where Michael creates the run for "the cure to rabies," and I am pretty dang sure that Dwight uses a stainless Colt Python with a 6" barrel as the "starter gun" for the event. Don't have a screenshot to prove it, could someone check that episode to verify it for me?

Anyways, I know of three more entries that could be included. In "Survivorman," Dwight observes Michael from a distance using a scoped bolt-action rifle. My best guess would be a Remington or Winchester. In "Frame Toby," some police officers appear to be carrying Glocks. And in "The Farm," Dwight fires a shotgun. It looked to me like a Remington 870.

In season 4, some of the people at the office Jim moved to would play the original Call of Duty as a “team building exercise.” There are specifc moments that show off the German MP40 and Jim is killed (in game) in one scene by an M1 Garand. Because this is a video game, I’m not sure to add it to the page. But that being said, the Black Hawk Down page does mention one of the M16A1s on the TV screen when watching a movie; so I think something like this can be added, since the game is also centered around the plot of the episode.--[[User:Bosoxboy521|Bosoxboy521]] ([[User talk:Bosoxboy521|talk]]) 12:33, 23 January 2019 (EST)

Being the fourteenth main game in the series, it is also the first installment since ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'' to be set in World War II, and the fifth main WWII title in the series.

=Overview=
In ''WWII'', the extended magazine attachment changes the model of the magazine, but in most cases applies a flat 50% increase to the magazine capacity, which often results in completely wrong capacities for real magazines.

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
The [[M1911A1]] returns as the main American sidearm. Interestingly, the "extended magazine" attachment gives the gun extremely long magazines, similar to the M1911A1 Machine Pistol pictured below, but only increases the capacity from 7 to 10 rounds.

==Enfield No. 2==
An [[Enfield No. 2]] can be seen in the holster of 1st Lieutenant Joseph Turner ([[Jeffrey Pierce]]) in the campaign, and is usable during a key scripted section of the story. It is incorrectly depicted with a swing-out cylinder rather than top-break. Its use by American forces in the campaign is also a bit inaccurate; a more appropriate service revolver would be the [[Colt M1917]].

==LP-42 Flare Pistol==
The [[LP-42 Flare Pistol|Leuchtpistole 42]] is a collectable memento during the seventh singleplayer mission "''Death Factory''".

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]] as the main sidearm of the Germans. Equipping the gun with the "Extended Mags" attachment gives it a 32-round ''Trommelmagazin 08'', although the weapon's capacity is only increased to 12 rounds.

==Borchardt C-93==
Interestingly, the "Der Adler" and "Adlertag" Epic variants of the Luger heavily resemble the [[Borchardt C-93]], an earlier pistol whose toggle-lock operation inspired the Luger's design.
[[Image:borchardtc93.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Borchardt C-93 - 7.65x25mm Borchardt]]

==Nambu Type 14==
The [[Nambu Type 14]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as the "Abwehr" Epic variant for the Luger P08 (with the "Torch" variant also resembling it a bit), despite being a completely different handgun in real life.
[[file:NambuType14Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Nambu Type 14 - 8x22mm Nambu]]

==Mauser C96==
The [[Mauser C96]] is available in the game. During alpha stage, it was designated as "[[Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|M712]]", which is incorrect since it lacks a fire selector. This means it committed the error of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops III|Black Ops III]]'' in reverse; those games had an M712 Schnellfeuer incorrectly referred to as a C96, whereas this game has a C96 incorrectly referred to as an M712. In-game, it is referred to as "Machine Pistol" and behaves like an M712, firing in full-auto mode and using detachable magazines.

The "Holzpistole" and "Schlange" Epic variants have long barrels like the C96 carbine as seen in [[Battlefield 1]], with the Holzpistole having the buttstock as well.

=Submachine Guns=
==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
The [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] appears in the game as the "Waffe 28". Despite having a low rate of fire at ~500 rounds/minute in real life, in-game this gun seems to fire almost twice that at around 900 rounds/minute. When fitted with the "Extended Magazine" attachment (the same TM 08 snail drum used for the Luger that somehow gives the MP28 48 rounds), it resembles its predecessor, the [[Bergmann MP18]].

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] is available in the game, incorrectly referred to as the M1928 variant: while US soldiers did use the M1928A1 early in their involvement in WW2 since the M1 did not enter service until April 1942, the gun shown in the game has the triangular rear sight guard "ears" of an M1A1, a right-side charging handle and an unribbed barrel, and does not have a Cutts Compensator which military M1928A1s usually did. The extended magazine attachment gives it a drum magazine, which is incorrect: while an actual M1928 could accept a drum, the simplified M1 and M1A1 lacked this feature since the drum was deemed too heavy and unreliable for combat. In multiplayer, the "Handler" variant gains a long ribbed barrel like that of the [[Auto Ordnance M1927 Thompson]], as well as a vertical foregrip.

==M1928A1 Thompson==
In campaign, the Thompson used by Sgt. Pierson is actually an M1928A1, as evidenced by the charging handle being on the top of the receiver, as well as the appropriate ribbed barrel and foregrip being present, though the weapon still has the rear sight of an M1A1. In multiplayer, the "Wilco", "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants of the Thompson are also modeled after M1928A1s. The "Wilco" has a long barrel like the Auto Ordnance M1927, while the "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants have the early 'simplified' rear sight, a shorter barrel and no stock nor foregrip. It is to note that that none of the Thompsons appearing in the game have a Cutts Compensator.

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3 Grease Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]], and is the first available submachine gun in multiplayer. The extended magazine is for some reason the same TM 08 snail drum magazine used by the [[Luger|Luger Artillery Model]] and [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II|MP28]], which gives the Grease Gun 45 rounds.

==Błyskawica==
The Błyskawica ("Lightning") was an open-bolt submachine gun derived from the Sten and used by the Polish resistance in World War II. Despite some claims, however, it is NOT a direct copy of the Sten; it has mechanical elements from both the Sten and the MP40. In game, it changes the appearance of the M3 Grease Gun under the "Brandi" variant.

[[File:File:Grease gun brandi 2.jpg|thumb|right|600px|The Błyskawica in game with a wooden stock and cut down barrel. This variant does not exist in real life.]]

==MP40==
The iconic [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] returns as the main German submachine gun.
[[File:MP40.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MP40_0.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 in-game. Like in every other WWII game and movie, the player still holds the gun by the magazine, which increases the risk of jamming it.]]

==MP41==
The "Wunderwaffe" and "Do-Re-Mi" Epic variants of the MP40 replace the pistol grips and underfolding stocks with rifle stocks, increasing their resemblance to the [[MP41]].
[[Image:Mp41-1.jpg|thumb|400px|none|The MP41. It was produced and used in small quantities in 1941 to 1942.]]

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] appears in the game, along with both the stick magazine, and the drum magazine. It also seems to have the early version of the sights. One thing to note is that it uses a PPS-43 magwell, though the drum mag version uses the correct magwell. Its rate of fire is substantially lower in-game than in real life. The epic PPSh-41 variant "Thrive" added on the weapon barrel from the [[SVT-40]].

[[File:CoDWWII-PPSh.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The PPSh-41 equipped with a "lens sight".]]

==PPS-43==
The "Iron Curtain" Epic variant of the PPSh-41 has a pistol grip and folding stock in lieu of the traditional wooden stock, increasing its resemblance to the [[PPS-43]]. Meanwhile the "Duck Soup" variant is essentially a somewhat shortened PPS-43, or a Tikkakoski M/44 when the drum magazine attachment is chosen.

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', but is now correctly held by the handguard. Unlike the ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'', the version is this game is the earlier Type 100/40, notable for the adjustable rear sight, bayonet lug, and slower rate of fire.

=Shotguns=
==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The rare [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]], a combination shotgun / rifle only issued to Luftwaffe aircrews, is available. By default, only the shotgun barrels are used, but the "Rifle Bullet" attachment allows the third barrel to be used. The latter basically fires a powerful rifle round with a range and damage comparable to that of a sniper rifle. This is rather unrealistic as the rifle barrel was only issued with soft-pointed bullets: firing these at a human would constitute a war crime. The two barrels being choked for different types of shell (slugs on the left and birdshot on the right) are not simulated.

==Walther Toggle-Action==
The rare Walther toggle-action shotgun is available, simply referred to as "Toggle Action". It erroneously feeds from a detachable box magazine (or drum when the extended mag attachment is equipped) rather than its internal tube magazine. The box magazine is likely from the A115, an experimental semi-automatic rifle developed by Walther in the 1930s. The "Winter's Wild" and "Dynamo" Epic variants have lever loops for some reason, making the Walther look like a Mare's Leg.

==Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] is available with an incorrect tube capacity of 7 shells (10 with extended magazine) instead of 5. It was referred to as "Winchester 1897" and then "M97 Trench Gun" in earlier stages of the game, only to be renamed to simply "Combat Shotgun" in the final version. Like other shotguns in the game, it is able to use incendiary shells at division level 1.

==Winchester Model 1912 Trench Gun==
The "Battle" and "Trench Runner" variants of the weapon turns the weapon into a Winchester Model 1912, with the weapon fitted with a bayonet lug and internal hammer. It doesn't function any different from the default "Combat Shotgun" and only for aesthetics.

==Winchester Model 21==
The [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Side by Side Shotgun|Winchester Model 21]] double-barreled shotgun appears in the game with the barrels sawed off. It was referred to as "Model 21" in early footage, but was later renamed to simply "Sawed-off Shotgun" in the final game. In multiplayer, the "Domino" variant gives the shotgun full-sized barrels, while the "Acrobat" and "Cruiser" have their barrels sawed off even more than the base version, as well as gaining a vertical foregrip. As for the "Crusader" variant, it has the stock sawed off (which is also the case for the Acrobat).

=Rifles=
==Fallschirmjägergewehr 42==
The [[FG42]] is a usable automatic rifle in-game. It is the late war/second model, unlike the versions seen in previous installments. The "Stinkeroo" and "Revised" Epic variants have circular slotted barrel shrouds, giving them a resemblance to the [[MG30]] machine gun.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is available in the game. When the "Extended Mags" attachment is equipped, the weapon is fitted with the rare 20-rounder trench magazine from the earlier Gewehr 98 and Kar98 models, which is incorrectly shown as detachable, and only holds 7 rounds in-game.

==Kbsp wz. 38M==
The [[Kbsp wz. 38M]] (Karabin samopowtarzalny wzór 38M) appears in the game, simply referred to as the "Karabin". A surprising inclusion in-game, given that only around 150 of the rifles were ever built. It incorrectly features a detachable magazine like the [[Gewehr 43]]; the real-life rifle has a non-detachable magazine fed by Mauser stripper clips, which wouldn't be possible on the in-game sniper variant because the scope is blocking it.

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)#Short Magazine Lee-Enfield rifle|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)]] appears in the game. It was referred to as the "Commonwealth" in the beta, but this was later changed to "Lee Enfield". Like the Springfield, it is still loaded with stripper clips even though the scope is blocking the magazine; it also replenishes all 10 rounds with just one clip.

The "Sweetie" Epic variant is based on the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I as it lacks the cheek rest on the buttstock, while the "Roundabout" and "The Royal" are sawed-off to pistol size, though "The Royal" variant still has a No.4 Mk.I buttstock.

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1 Carbine]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', still labeled as the "M1A1". Notably, it is able to equip a bayonet, yet it visibly lacks a bayonet lug. For some reason, it also has a hooded sight as well, which was never issued on any carbines.

The "Bite The Dust" and "Bug Juice" Epic variants have proper M1A1 folding stocks, though the former has a longer barrel, and the latter has a shorter one.

==M1 Garand==
The iconic battle rifle of the American forces, the [[M1 Garand]], makes a return in this game. Like in ''World at War'', the weapon can be reloaded mid-clip, though it makes the ping sound and ejects the clip anyway. When fitted with the "Extended Mag" attachment, it gains a detachable magazine, similar to the experimental T20 select-fire variant.

==M1941 Johnson rifle==
The "Battle Watch" and "Savior" variants of the M1941 Johnson machine gun turn its visual appearance into that of the [[M1941 Johnson rifle|M1941 semi-automatic rifle]], though it retains the full-auto fire and the side-mounted detachable magazine of the M1941 machine gun.
[[File:M1941Johnson.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson rifle - .30-06]]

==Springfield M1903==
The [[Springfield M1903]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as an available sniper rifle. The rifle can incorrectly be loaded with stripper clips even if the scope is blocking the magazine. As with all of the bolt-action rifles, a full stripper clip is used to reload the weapon, regardless of how many rounds remain in the magazine.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] returns to the game as the only true assault rifle in game. It performs a similar reload to the [[AK-47]] rifles seen in previous iterations as well as on the "MP44" in [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]. Interestingly, the "Serum" variant creates a fictitious shorten variant of the weapon with a cut down barrel, gas system, and an MP40-type folding stock.

==Sturmgewehr 45(M)==
The [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] is the Epic variant of the [[Sturmgewehr 44]]. It is statistically identical to the standard variant, apart from a 10% XP boost granted to the user. The weapon's animations are the same as those of the StG 44.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
Yet another weapon returning from previous games, the [[SVT-40]] is usable. Interestingly, the "Shack Man" Epic variant of the SVT gives it a receiver rather like an AG42B Ljungman rifle. In the campaign, it also widely used by German soldiers, probably since the game lacks the much more appropriate [[Gewehr 43]] (which, incidentally, has some historical significance, since Wehrmacht soldiers used captured SVTs in the early stages of the war, due to the lack of proper own semi-automatic rifles). In multiplayer, the SVT is unlocked automatically after prestiging the Infantry division.

==Winchester Model 1894==
A [[Winchester Model 1894]] is seen in the hands of a young Ronald "Red" Daniels in the intro cutscene of the campaign mission "Stronghold", though it is not available for use.
[[File:WinchesterModel1894.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Winchester 1894 - .30-30]]

=Machine Guns=
As with multiple ''Call of Duty'' titles, the machine guns class is referred to as "light machine guns", even though the game includes the MG15 and MG42 general-purpose machine guns. An in-game text in the campaign also lists the M1919A4 as an LMG, which is incorrect since it is a medium machine gun.

==Besa==
The [[Besa machine gun]] is mounted on a British Light Tank Mk VI on the "''Gibraltar''".

==Browning M1919A4==
The [[Browning M1919A4]] machine gun returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as a mounted machine gun, although it can be dismounted and used as a portable weapon in campaign only, with a 250-round belt.

==Bren Mk1 (M)==
The [[Bren Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 3]], replacing the [[Type 99 Light Machine Gun|Type 99 light machine gun]] featured in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]''. It fires at a sluggish 300 rpm, around 200 rpm slower than its real-life variant, but compensates for it by having a two-shot kill at all ranges. Amusingly, the "King and Country" and "Combatant" Epic variants are fitted with giant cooling jackets, which aren't necessary considering the lower rate of fire and quick-change barrel.
[[File:Bren gun.JPG|thumb|none|450px|Bren Mk1 (M) - .303 British]]
[[File:CoDWWII-bren1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren in-game. Note that it has a hole in the magazine release catch, a feature of a Bren Mk2, though it is entirely possible that this would end up on a Mk1 as a replacement part.]]

==Lewis Gun==
The [[Lewis Gun]] appears for the first time in a ''Call of Duty'' game. The version shown is a WW2 British modification of obsolete surplus WW1-era aircraft-mounted Lewis Guns for issue to the Home Guard, fitting them with stocks and pistol grips: this was when, much to the chagrin of WW1 veterans, it was discovered that the gun functioned just fine without its heavy forced-air cooling jacket. The "Chatter Box" and "Landship" Epic variants do have their barrel shrouds, though the "Chatter Box" version lacks the stock like the Aircraft Lewis Gun image below.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', now classified as an automatic rifle, despite the M1918A2 meant to fulfill the light machine gun role. Unlike previous games, the charging handle doesn't reciprocate back when the weapon is fired. Interestingly, the weapon in cutscenes has a bipod attached to it, but it disappears during gameplay. Instead, in MP, it serves to mount a fictitious bayonet.
[[File:BAR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06]]

This sight never saw any combat use, and was not particularly popular with civilian shooters due to being rather fragile. Note that the weapon also incorrectly has a bayonet.]]

==M1941 Johnson machine gun==
The [[M1941 Johnson machine gun]] appears as another new light machine gun in the game. It is incorrectly categorized as a rifle instead of an LMG.
[[File:JOHNSON M1941.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson machine gun - .30-06]]
[[File:CoDWWII-M1941.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier holding a Johnson machine gun. There are 2 things to note here: the first is the magazine, which is too short for the in-game 25-round capacity (the actual weapon's far longer magazine held 20 rounds, although 5 more could be left in the magazine well for a total of 25; the appropriate magazine is only fitted to the weapon if it has the Extended Mags attachment, and incorrectly holds 37 rounds). The second is the bayonet, which is also incorrect, as the weapon lacks a bayonet lug; furthermore, the weapon's short-recoil operation, and resultant reciprocating barrel (not shown in-game), would make it difficult for the bayonet to stay attached.]]

[[File:CoDWWII-M1941_3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

==MG15==
The [[MG15 machine gun]] is yet another new machine gun in the game. Although the gun was originally designed to be mounted on aircraft, a few guns were fitted with bipods and converted to infantry use during the war. Nevertheless, the [[MG34]] would be a more suitable weapon. Oddly, the weapon's fire rate is far lower than its real world counterpart, not even close to the actual weapon's 1,000 RPM; this is likely for the usual balance reasons (although one could argue that if the weapon were given the appropriate fire rate, then the sheer uncontrollability of its recoil could balance it instead).

[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the MG15. Note the completely incorrect iron sights; these are the aircraft sights, rather than the appropriate infantry sights (a drum with a notch for the rear sight, adjustable for range, and a front post, both mounted below and to the left of the standard aircraft sights) mounted onto weapons issued to ground troops; furthermore, they aren't even correct for the aircraft sights, as the front sight has only 4 intersecting lines rather than 8 and no inner circle, and the rear sight is a post, rather than the appropriate v-notch.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading, which involves a great deal of struggling with the magazine; this might have something to do with the fact that the magazine release is never touched during this animation; the player character instead operates the magazine locking lever, the developers apparently having mistakenly believed that that was the magazine release.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MG15 fitted with Extended Mags, which gives it the correct 75-round double drum magazine.]]

==MG34==
The [[MG34]] is mounted on German tanks.

[[File:CoDWWII-MG34.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MG34 mounted on a Panzer IV.]]

==MG42==
The iconic [[MG42]], returns from [[Call of Duty: World at War|''World at War'']] in both mounted and man-portable versions. Despite its fearsome reputation and nickname, the weapon has an absurdly slower rate of fire in multiplayer like the [[MG15 machine gun|MG15]] for the sake of balance, although it fires at its proper rate in the campaign and zombie modes. The "Devil's Piano" Epic variant lacks its distinct skeletal barrel shroud, resembling a [[SIG MG50]] while the "Zipper" Epic variant has a circular barrel shroud like the [[MG34]].

=Launchers=
==Luftfaust==
The Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B), a 9-barrel German 20mm anti-aircraft rocket launcher that never got past the prototype phase, is available in Zombies mode. Its two in-game names are oddly backwards: it is called the "Fliegerfaust," changing to "Luftfaust-B" when it is Pack-A-Punched. While German records indicate only 80 of these launchers were issued for combat trials, all to a unit in Saarbrücken, there is a photograph of three discarded Luftfaust launchers lying in the rubble of the Hotel Adlon taken during the Siege of Berlin in 1945, suggesting this is one of the less far-fetched experimental weapons to show up in the series.

The weapon is shown as firing rockets individually or in an alternate "free-fire" fully automatic mode, which is incorrect: while there is some disagreement about what the Luftfaust actually ''did'', all sources agree it was some kind of volley fire weapon, with one trigger pull either firing all of the tubes in sequence with a pre-set delay between them, or firing the central tube and every other one of the outer tubes first, then the remaining four 0.1 or 0.2 seconds later. The latter is more commonly reported, with the logic being it would produce a reasonably tight group of rockets while preventing the rockets from damaging or deflecting each other with their exhausts. It is also shown causing massive fiery explosions with each shot, while the real Luftfaust's projectiles were rather more anaemic high-explosive bullets from 20x138mm B cannon rounds fitted with rocket motors.

[[Image:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Allied forces. It is actually shown being reloaded correctly: while later Bazooka variants required wires to be connected to a contact clip at the rear of the launcher, on the M1 the contact was with a brass ring around the nose of the rocket. This method was made impossible when the M1A1 variant wrapped the rear section of the tube in wire to prevent it from bursting on hot days and eliminated the contact box on top of the tube as a point of structural weakness.

[[File:CoDWWII-BAZ 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in-game: note the twin grips, showing this to be the earliest M1 model, which is severely outdated by the end of the campaign. The bunker complex ahead appears to be a FuMG 41/42 Mammut phased array radar, also seen in ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'': this implies this level is set in occupied France, meaning an M1A1 or M9 bazooka should be shown instead.]]

==M7 grenade launcher==
The [[M7 Rifle Grenade Launcher]] only appears in the campaign, and is always attached to the [[M1 Garand]]. The Garand is incorrectly shown as being able to fire in semi-auto with the M7 attached to the muzzle, something that was only possible with the postwar M7A1-M7A3.

[[Panzerfaust]]s can be seen through the singleplayer campaign. They're unusable for the player.

==Panzerschreck==

[[File:CoDWWII-Panzerschreck3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the Panzerschreck. The player character does not press down the contact pin on the top of the contact box (the box on the left with a wire leading to it) which would mean there was no electrical connection to fire the rocket. In fact loading it like this would probably result in the rocket falling straight through the tube, since the tail had to be located carefully in a specific position by manipulating a locking lever. And given a Panzerschreck is 65 inches long while the average WW2 soldier was 68 inches tall, this view would probably require either a box to stand on or the muzzle to be shoved into the ground.]]

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 35==
The [[Flammenwerfer 35]] appears as the main flamethrower for the Axis forces and is collectable memento during the third mission "''Stronghold''".

==No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "British No. 69." It is incorrectly shown as the equivalent of a flashbang grenade: the No. 69 was what the British termed an "offensive" lethal grenade designed to have a smaller radius of effect than a "defensive" fragmentation grenade like the Mills Bomb. The [[MK3 offensive hand grenade|American Mk3 Offensive Blast Grenade]], a concussion grenade, would probably be the closest period weapon in terms of function, though it too was designed to be lethal.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] appears as the ''S-Mine 44''. In-game, it takes the place of a soldier's grenades in multiplayer, and serves the same role as it did in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' (and the same role as the [[M18A1 Claymore]] from the modern titles).

88mm FlaKs, which appear to be the older model 18 with a one-piece barrel, can be seen throughout the singleplayer and multiplayer maps.

==Browning M2 Aircraft==

During the campaign mission ''Battle of the Bulge'' the player briefly takes control of a P-47 Thunderbolt, part of a group that are for some reason flying an air-superiority mission defending a stream of B-17Gs while armed with bombs. Both the P-47s and the bombers are armed with the [[Browning M2 Aircraft]]. In reality the P-47 would not be able to make it this far into France escorting bombers from England without carrying external drop tanks (which the aircraft in the game do not), and at this point in the war the P-51D Mustang had taken over most bomber escort duties. While P-47s were present in the Battle of the Bulge, they were operating from airfields in the Low Countries (the modern Benelux region) and were specifically tasked with ground attack missions rather than bomber escort duty.

The "fighter pilot" scorestreak in multiplayer uses the P-47 model, while the "ball turret gunner" uses the B-17G model.

==Canon de 155mm GPF==
Daniels squad must destroy a Canon de 155 Grande Puissance Filloux (GPF) during the D-Day. 1st Lieutenant Turner calls it a "GPF" gun. In ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' Corporal Bill Taylor must destroy this cannon, too.

===155 mm "Long Tom"===
The American variant of the GPF is mounted on a M40 Gun Motor Carriage on the map "''Aachen''". This is may be a reference to the fifteenth mission of "''Call of Duty: Finest Hour''" "Surrender at Aachen" where the M40 is seen forcing the Germans to surrender.

'''Call of Duty: WWII''' is a first-person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games for the PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. Being the fourteenth main game in the series, it is also the first installment since ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'' to be set in World War II, and the fifth main WWII title in the series.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
In ''WWII'', the extended magazine attachment changes the model of the magazine, but in most cases applies a flat 50% increase to the magazine capacity, which often results in completely wrong capacities for real magazines.

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
The [[M1911A1]] returns as the main American sidearm. Interestingly, the "extended magazine" attachment gives the gun extremely long magazines, similar to the M1911A1 Machine Pistol pictured below, but only increases the capacity from 7 to 10 rounds.
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:1911machinepistol.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt M1911A1 Machine Pistol factory full-auto conversion - .38 Super. The in-game "Jupiter" variant of the M1911 looks similar to this, but without the compensator and the extended magazine.]]

==Enfield No. 2==
An [[Enfield No. 2]] can be seen in the holster of 1st Lieutenant Joseph Turner ([[Jeffrey Pierce]]) in the campaign, and is usable during a key scripted section of the story. It is incorrectly depicted with a swing-out cylinder rather than top-break. Its use by American forces in the campaign is also a bit inaccurate; a more appropriate service revolver would be the [[Colt M1917]].

[[File:CoDWWII-enfre 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels ([[Brett Zimmerman]]) holds Turner's revolver.]]

==LP-42 Flare Pistol==
The [[LP-42 Flare Pistol|Leuchtpistole 42]] is a collectable memento during the seventh singleplayer mission "''Death Factory''".

[[File:CoDWWII-lp 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels finds the Flare gun.]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]] as the main sidearm of the Germans. Equipping the gun with the "Extended Mags" attachment gives it a 32-round ''Trommelmagazin 08'', although the weapon's capacity is only increased to 12 rounds.

[[File:CoDWWII-Luger 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later, he prepares to chamber an oddly pointy 9x19mm round, after replacing the weapon's empty magazine with a fresh one.]]

==Borchardt C-93==
Interestingly, the "Der Adler" and "Adlertag" Epic variants of the Luger heavily resemble the [[Borchardt C-93]], an earlier pistol whose toggle-lock operation inspired the Luger's design.
[[Image:borchardtc93.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Borchardt C-93 - 7.65x25mm Borchardt]]

==Nambu Type 14==
The [[Nambu Type 14]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as the "Abwehr" Epic variant for the Luger P08 (with the "Torch" variant also resembling it a bit), despite being a completely different handgun in real life.
[[file:NambuType14Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Nambu Type 14 - 8x22mm Nambu]]

==Mauser C96==
The [[Mauser C96]] is available in the game. During alpha stage, it was designated as "[[Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|M712]]", which is incorrect since it lacks a fire selector. This means it committed the error of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops III|Black Ops III]]'' in reverse; those games had an M712 Schnellfeuer incorrectly referred to as a C96, whereas this game has a C96 incorrectly referred to as an M712. In-game, it is referred to as "Machine Pistol" and behaves like an M712, firing in full-auto mode and using detachable magazines.

[[File:CoDWWII-c96 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

The "Holzpistole" and "Schlange" Epic variants have long barrels like the C96 carbine as seen in [[Battlefield 1]], with the Holzpistole having the buttstock as well.
[[File:C96carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|The very rare full stocked C96 carbine - 7.63x25mm Mauser]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
The [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] appears in the game as the "Waffe 28". Despite having a low rate of fire at ~500 rounds/minute in real life, in-game this gun seems to fire almost twice that at around 900 rounds/minute. When fitted with the "Extended Magazine" attachment (the same TM 08 snail drum used for the Luger that somehow gives the MP28 48 rounds), it resembles its predecessor, the [[Bergmann MP18]].

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] is available in the game, incorrectly referred to as the M1928 variant: while US soldiers did use the M1928A1 early in their involvement in WW2 since the M1 did not enter service until April 1942, the gun shown in the game has the triangular rear sight guard "ears" of an M1A1, a right-side charging handle and an unribbed barrel, and does not have a Cutts Compensator which military M1928A1s usually did. The extended magazine attachment gives it a drum magazine, which is incorrect: while an actual M1928 could accept a drum, the simplified M1 and M1A1 lacked this feature since the drum was deemed too heavy and unreliable for combat. In multiplayer, the "Handler" variant gains a long ribbed barrel like that of the [[Auto Ordnance M1927 Thompson]], as well as a vertical foregrip.

[[File:CoDWWII-Thom 5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

==M1928A1 Thompson==
In campaign, the Thompson used by Sgt. Pierson is actually an M1928A1, as evidenced by the charging handle being on the top of the receiver, as well as the appropriate ribbed barrel and foregrip being present, though the weapon still has the rear sight of an M1A1. In multiplayer, the "Wilco", "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants of the Thompson are also modeled after M1928A1s. The "Wilco" has a long barrel like the Auto Ordnance M1927, while the "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants have the early 'simplified' rear sight, a shorter barrel and no stock nor foregrip. It is to note that that none of the Thompsons appearing in the game have a Cutts Compensator.

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3 Grease Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]], and is the first available submachine gun in multiplayer. The extended magazine is for some reason the same TM 08 snail drum magazine used by the [[Luger|Luger Artillery Model]] and [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II|MP28]], which gives the Grease Gun 45 rounds.

==Błyskawica==
The Błyskawica ("Lightning") was an open-bolt submachine gun derived from the Sten and used by the Polish resistance in World War II. Despite some claims, however, it is NOT a direct copy of the Sten; it has mechanical elements from both the Sten and the MP40. In game, it changes the appearance of the M3 Grease Gun under the "Brandi" variant.

[[File:File:Grease gun brandi 2.jpg|thumb|right|600px|The Błyskawica in game with a wooden stock and cut down barrel. This variant does not exist in real life.]]

==MP40==
The iconic [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] returns as the main German submachine gun.
[[File:MP40.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MP40_0.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 in-game. Like in every other WWII game and movie, the player still holds the gun by the magazine, which increases the risk of jamming it.]]

==MP41==
The "Wunderwaffe" and "Do-Re-Mi" Epic variants of the MP40 replace the pistol grips and underfolding stocks with rifle stocks, increasing their resemblance to the [[MP41]].
[[Image:Mp41-1.jpg|thumb|400px|none|The MP41. It was produced and used in small quantities in 1941 to 1942.]]

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] appears in the game, along with both the stick magazine, and the drum magazine. It also seems to have the early version of the sights. One thing to note is that it uses a PPS-43 magwell, though the drum mag version uses the correct magwell. Its rate of fire is substantially lower in-game than in real life. The epic PPSh-41 variant "Thrive" added on the weapon barrel from the [[SVT-40]].

[[File:CoDWWII-PPSh.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The PPSh-41 equipped with a "lens sight".]]

==PPS-43==
The "Iron Curtain" Epic variant of the PPSh-41 has a pistol grip and folding stock in lieu of the traditional wooden stock, increasing its resemblance to the [[PPS-43]]. Meanwhile the "Duck Soup" variant is essentially a somewhat shortened PPS-43, or a Tikkakoski M/44 when the drum magazine attachment is chosen.

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', but is now correctly held by the handguard. Unlike the ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'', the version is this game is the earlier Type 100/40, notable for the adjustable rear sight, bayonet lug, and slower rate of fire.

=Shotguns=
==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The rare [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]], a combination shotgun / rifle only issued to Luftwaffe aircrews, is available. By default, only the shotgun barrels are used, but the "Rifle Bullet" attachment allows the third barrel to be used. The latter basically fires a powerful rifle round with a range and damage comparable to that of a sniper rifle. This is rather unrealistic as the rifle barrel was only issued with soft-pointed bullets: firing these at a human would constitute a war crime. The two barrels being choked for different types of shell (slugs on the left and birdshot on the right) are not simulated.

==Walther Toggle-Action==
The rare Walther toggle-action shotgun is available, simply referred to as "Toggle Action". It erroneously feeds from a detachable box magazine (or drum when the extended mag attachment is equipped) rather than its internal tube magazine. The box magazine is likely from the A115, an experimental semi-automatic rifle developed by Walther in the 1930s. The "Winter's Wild" and "Dynamo" Epic variants have lever loops for some reason, making the Walther look like a Mare's Leg.

==Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] is available with an incorrect tube capacity of 7 shells (10 with extended magazine) instead of 5. It was referred to as "Winchester 1897" and then "M97 Trench Gun" in earlier stages of the game, only to be renamed to simply "Combat Shotgun" in the final version. Like other shotguns in the game, it is able to use incendiary shells at division level 1.

==Winchester Model 1912 Trench Gun==
The "Battle" and "Trench Runner" variants of the weapon turns the weapon into a Winchester Model 1912, with the weapon fitted with a bayonet lug and internal hammer. It doesn't function any different from the default "Combat Shotgun" and only for aesthetics.

==Winchester Model 21==
The [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Side by Side Shotgun|Winchester Model 21]] double-barreled shotgun appears in the game with the barrels sawed off. It was referred to as "Model 21" in early footage, but was later renamed to simply "Sawed-off Shotgun" in the final game. In multiplayer, the "Domino" variant gives the shotgun full-sized barrels, while the "Acrobat" and "Cruiser" have their barrels sawed off even more than the base version, as well as gaining a vertical foregrip. As for the "Crusader" variant, it has the stock sawed off (which is also the case for the Acrobat).

=Rifles=
==Fallschirmjägergewehr 42==
The [[FG42]] is a usable automatic rifle in-game. It is the late war/second model, unlike the versions seen in previous installments. The "Stinkeroo" and "Revised" Epic variants have circular slotted barrel shrouds, giving them a resemblance to the [[MG30]] machine gun.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is available in the game. When the "Extended Mags" attachment is equipped, the weapon is fitted with the rare 20-rounder trench magazine from the earlier Gewehr 98 and Kar98 models, which is incorrectly shown as detachable, and only holds 7 rounds in-game.

==Kbsp wz. 38M==
The [[Kbsp wz. 38M]] (Karabin samopowtarzalny wzór 38M) appears in the game, simply referred to as the "Karabin". A surprising inclusion in-game, given that only around 150 of the rifles were ever built. It incorrectly features a detachable magazine like the [[Gewehr 43]]; the real-life rifle has a non-detachable magazine fed by Mauser stripper clips, which wouldn't be possible on the in-game sniper variant because the scope is blocking it.

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)#Short Magazine Lee-Enfield rifle|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)]] appears in the game. It was referred to as the "Commonwealth" in the beta, but this was later changed to "Lee Enfield". Like the Springfield, it is still loaded with stripper clips even though the scope is blocking the magazine; it also replenishes all 10 rounds with just one clip.

The "Sweetie" Epic variant is based on the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I as it lacks the cheek rest on the buttstock, while the "Roundabout" and "The Royal" are sawed-off to pistol size, though "The Royal" variant still has a No.4 Mk.I buttstock.

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1 Carbine]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', still labeled as the "M1A1". Notably, it is able to equip a bayonet, yet it visibly lacks a bayonet lug. For some reason, it also has a hooded sight as well, which was never issued on any carbines.

The "Bite The Dust" and "Bug Juice" Epic variants have proper M1A1 folding stocks, though the former has a longer barrel, and the latter has a shorter one.
[[File:M1A1Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1A1 Carbine with original L style rear sights, and side-folding stock, often referred to as the 'Paratrooper' carbine - .30 Carbine]]

==M1 Garand==
The iconic battle rifle of the American forces, the [[M1 Garand]], makes a return in this game. Like in ''World at War'', the weapon can be reloaded mid-clip, though it makes the ping sound and ejects the clip anyway. When fitted with the "Extended Mag" attachment, it gains a detachable magazine, similar to the experimental T20 select-fire variant.

==M1941 Johnson rifle==
The "Battle Watch" and "Savior" variants of the M1941 Johnson machine gun turn its visual appearance into that of the [[M1941 Johnson rifle|M1941 semi-automatic rifle]], though it retains the full-auto fire and the side-mounted detachable magazine of the M1941 machine gun.
[[File:M1941Johnson.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson rifle - .30-06]]

==Springfield M1903==
The [[Springfield M1903]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as an available sniper rifle. The rifle can incorrectly be loaded with stripper clips even if the scope is blocking the magazine. As with all of the bolt-action rifles, a full stripper clip is used to reload the weapon, regardless of how many rounds remain in the magazine.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Sturmgewehr 44]] returns to the game as the only true assault rifle in game. It performs a similar reload to the [[AK-47]] rifles seen in previous iterations as well as on the "MP44" in [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]. Interestingly, the "Serum" variant creates a fictitious shorten variant of the weapon with a cut down barrel, gas system, and an MP40-type folding stock.

==Sturmgewehr 45(M)==
The [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] is the Epic variant of the [[Sturmgewehr 44]]. It is statistically identical to the standard variant, apart from a 10% XP boost granted to the user. The weapon's animations are the same as those of the StG 44.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
Yet another weapon returning from previous games, the [[SVT-40]] is usable. Interestingly, the "Shack Man" Epic variant of the SVT gives it a receiver rather like an AG42B Ljungman rifle. In the campaign, it also widely used by German soldiers, probably since the game lacks the much more appropriate [[Gewehr 43]] (which, incidentally, has some historical significance, since Wehrmacht soldiers used captured SVTs in the early stages of the war, due to the lack of proper own semi-automatic rifles). In multiplayer, the SVT is unlocked automatically after prestiging the Infantry division.

==Winchester Model 1894==
A [[Winchester Model 1894]] is seen in the hands of a young Ronald "Red" Daniels in the intro cutscene of the campaign mission "Stronghold", though it is not available for use.

=Machine Guns=
As with multiple ''Call of Duty'' titles, the machine guns class is referred to as "light machine guns", even though the game includes the MG15 and MG42 general-purpose machine guns. An in-game text in the campaign also lists the M1919A4 as an LMG, which is incorrect since it is a medium machine gun.

==Besa==
The [[Besa machine gun]] is mounted on a British Light Tank Mk VI on the "''Gibraltar''".

==Browning M1919A4==
The [[Browning M1919A4]] machine gun returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as a mounted machine gun, although it can be dismounted and used as a portable weapon in campaign only, with a 250-round belt.

==Bren Mk1 (M)==
The [[Bren Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 3]], replacing the [[Type 99 Light Machine Gun|Type 99 light machine gun]] featured in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]''. It fires at a sluggish 300 rpm, around 200 rpm slower than its real-life variant, but compensates for it by having a two-shot kill at all ranges. Amusingly, the "King and Country" and "Combatant" Epic variants are fitted with giant cooling jackets, which aren't necessary considering the lower rate of fire and quick-change barrel.
[[File:Bren gun.JPG|thumb|none|450px|Bren Mk1 (M) - .303 British]]

==Lewis Gun==
The [[Lewis Gun]] appears for the first time in a ''Call of Duty'' game. The version shown is a WW2 British modification of obsolete surplus WW1-era aircraft-mounted Lewis Guns for issue to the Home Guard, fitting them with stocks and pistol grips: this was when, much to the chagrin of WW1 veterans, it was discovered that the gun functioned just fine without its heavy forced-air cooling jacket. The "Chatter Box" and "Landship" Epic variants do have their barrel shrouds, though the "Chatter Box" version lacks the stock like the Aircraft Lewis Gun image below.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', now classified as an automatic rifle, despite the M1918A2 meant to fulfill the light machine gun role. Unlike previous games, the charging handle doesn't reciprocate back when the weapon is fired. Interestingly, the weapon in cutscenes has a bipod attached to it, but it disappears during gameplay. Instead, in MP, it serves to mount a fictitious bayonet.
[[File:BAR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06]]

This sight never saw any combat use, and was not particularly popular with civilian shooters due to being rather fragile. Note that the weapon also incorrectly has a bayonet.]]

==M1941 Johnson machine gun==
The [[M1941 Johnson machine gun]] appears as another new light machine gun in the game. It is incorrectly categorized as a rifle instead of an LMG.
[[File:JOHNSON M1941.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson machine gun - .30-06]]
[[File:CoDWWII-M1941.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier holding a Johnson machine gun. There are 2 things to note here: the first is the magazine, which is too short for the in-game 25-round capacity (the actual weapon's far longer magazine held 20 rounds, although 5 more could be left in the magazine well for a total of 25; the appropriate magazine is only fitted to the weapon if it has the Extended Mags attachment, and incorrectly holds 37 rounds). The second is the bayonet, which is also incorrect, as the weapon lacks a bayonet lug; furthermore, the weapon's short-recoil operation, and resultant reciprocating barrel (not shown in-game), would make it difficult for the bayonet to stay attached.]]

==MG15==
The [[MG15 machine gun]] is yet another new machine gun in the game. Although the gun was originally designed to be mounted on aircraft, a few guns were fitted with bipods and converted to infantry use during the war. Nevertheless, the [[MG34]] would be a more suitable weapon. Oddly, the weapon's fire rate is far lower than its real world counterpart, not even close to the actual weapon's 1,000 RPM; this is likely for the usual balance reasons (although one could argue that if the weapon were given the appropriate fire rate, then the sheer uncontrollability of its recoil could balance it instead).

[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading, which involves a great deal of struggling with the magazine; this might have something to do with the fact that the magazine release is never touched during this animation; the player character instead operates the magazine locking lever, the developers apparently having mistakenly believed that that was the magazine release.]]

==MG34==
The [[MG34]] is mounted on German tanks.

==MG42==
The iconic [[MG42]], returns from [[Call of Duty: World at War|''World at War'']] in both mounted and man-portable versions. Despite its fearsome reputation and nickname, the weapon has an absurdly slower rate of fire in multiplayer like the [[MG15 machine gun|MG15]] for the sake of balance, although it fires at its proper rate in the campaign and zombie modes. The "Devil's Piano" Epic variant lacks its distinct skeletal barrel shroud, resembling a [[SIG MG50]] while the "Zipper" Epic variant has a circular barrel shroud like the [[MG34]].

=Launchers=
==Luftfaust==
The Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B), a 9-barrel German 20mm anti-aircraft rocket launcher that never got past the prototype phase, is available in Zombies mode. Its two in-game names are oddly backwards: it is called the "Fliegerfaust," changing to "Luftfaust-B" when it is Pack-A-Punched. While German records indicate only 80 of these launchers were issued for combat trials, all to a unit in Saarbrücken, there is a photograph of three discarded Luftfaust launchers lying in the rubble of the Hotel Adlon taken during the Siege of Berlin in 1945, suggesting this is one of the less far-fetched experimental weapons to show up in the series.

The weapon is shown as firing rockets individually or in an alternate "free-fire" fully automatic mode, which is incorrect: while there is some disagreement about what the Luftfaust actually ''did'', all sources agree it was some kind of volley fire weapon, with one trigger pull either firing all of the tubes in sequence with a pre-set delay between them, or firing the central tube and every other one of the outer tubes first, then the remaining four 0.1 or 0.2 seconds later. The latter is more commonly reported, with the logic being it would produce a reasonably tight group of rockets while preventing the rockets from damaging or deflecting each other with their exhausts. It is also shown causing massive fiery explosions with each shot, while the real Luftfaust's projectiles were rather more anaemic high-explosive bullets from 20x138mm B cannon rounds fitted with rocket motors.

[[Image:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Allied forces. It is actually shown being reloaded correctly: while later Bazooka variants required wires to be connected to a contact clip at the rear of the launcher, on the M1 the contact was with a brass ring around the nose of the rocket. This method was made impossible when the M1A1 variant wrapped the rear section of the tube in wire to prevent it from bursting on hot days and eliminated the contact box on top of the tube as a point of structural weakness.
[[File:Bazookasmithsonian.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1 "Bazooka" - 2.36 inch]]
[[File:CoDWWII-BAZ 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in-game: note the twin grips, showing this to be the earliest M1 model, which is severely outdated by the end of the campaign. The bunker complex ahead appears to be a FuMG 41/42 Mammut phased array radar, also seen in ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'': this implies this level is set in occupied France, meaning an M1A1 or M9 bazooka should be shown instead.]]

==M7 grenade launcher==
The [[M7 Rifle Grenade Launcher]] only appears in the campaign, and is always attached to the [[M1 Garand]]. The Garand is incorrectly shown as being able to fire in semi-auto with the M7 attached to the muzzle, something that was only possible with the postwar M7A1-M7A3.

==Panzerfaust==
[[Panzerfaust]]s can be seen through the singleplayer campaign. They're unusable for the player.

[[File:CoDWWII-Pfaust.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Two Panzerfausts in a weapon crate.]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Axis forces.
[[Image:Tank h5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPzB 54 "Panzerschreck" rocket launcher - 88mm]]

[[File:CoDWWII-Panzerschreck2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|"Aiming" the Panzerschreck, which consists less of lining up the front and rear sights, and more of stabbing the rear sight into the operator's cheek and then lining up the front sight with nothing. This somehow works.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-Panzerschreck3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the Panzerschreck. The player character does not press down the contact pin on the top of the contact box (the box on the left with a wire leading to it) which would mean there was no electrical connection to fire the rocket. In fact loading it like this would probably result in the rocket falling straight through the tube, since the tail had to be located carefully in a specific position by manipulating a locking lever. And given a Panzerschreck is 65 inches long while the average WW2 soldier was 68 inches tall, this view would probably require either a box to stand on or the muzzle to be shoved into the ground.]]

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 35==
The [[Flammenwerfer 35]] appears as the main flamethrower for the Axis forces and is collectable memento during the third mission "''Stronghold''".
[[File:Flammenwerfer41-05.jpg|thumb|none|250px|Flammenwerfer 35]]

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
The [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] appears in the game, modeled with the fragmentation sleeve of the [[Model 43 Stielhandgranate]]. The correct model of the M24 is seen in ammunition boxes and on German uniforms.

==No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "British No. 69." It is incorrectly shown as the equivalent of a flashbang grenade: the No. 69 was what the British termed an "offensive" lethal grenade designed to have a smaller radius of effect than a "defensive" fragmentation grenade like the Mills Bomb. The [[MK3 offensive hand grenade|American Mk3 Offensive Blast Grenade]], a concussion grenade, would probably be the closest period weapon in terms of function, though it too was designed to be lethal.

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] appears as the ''S-Mine 44''. In-game, it takes the place of a soldier's grenades in multiplayer, and serves the same role as it did in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' (and the same role as the [[M18A1 Claymore]] from the modern titles).

88mm FlaKs, which appear to be the older model 18 with a one-piece barrel, can be seen throughout the singleplayer and multiplayer maps.

==Browning M2 Aircraft==

During the campaign mission ''Battle of the Bulge'' the player briefly takes control of a P-47 Thunderbolt, part of a group that are for some reason flying an air-superiority mission defending a stream of B-17Gs while armed with bombs. Both the P-47s and the bombers are armed with the [[Browning M2 Aircraft]]. In reality the P-47 would not be able to make it this far into France escorting bombers from England without carrying external drop tanks (which the aircraft in the game do not), and at this point in the war the P-51D Mustang had taken over most bomber escort duties. While P-47s were present in the Battle of the Bulge, they were operating from airfields in the Low Countries (the modern Benelux region) and were specifically tasked with ground attack missions rather than bomber escort duty.

The "fighter pilot" scorestreak in multiplayer uses the P-47 model, while the "ball turret gunner" uses the B-17G model.

==Canon de 155mm GPF==
Daniels squad must destroy a Canon de 155 Grande Puissance Filloux (GPF) during the D-Day. 1st Lieutenant Turner calls it a "GPF" gun. In ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' Corporal Bill Taylor must destroy this cannon, too.

===155 mm "Long Tom"===
The American variant of the GPF is mounted on a M40 Gun Motor Carriage on the map "''Aachen''". This is may be a reference to the fifteenth mission of "''Call of Duty: Finest Hour''" "Surrender at Aachen" where the M40 is seen forcing the Germans to surrender.

'''Call of Duty: WWII''' is a first-person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games for the PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. Being the fourteenth main game in the series, it is also the first installment since ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'' to be set in World War II, and the fifth main WWII title in the series.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
In ''WWII'', the extended magazine attachment changes the model of the magazine, but in most cases applies a flat 50% increase to the magazine capacity, which often results in completely wrong capacities for real magazines.

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
The [[M1911A1]] returns as the main American sidearm. Interestingly, the "extended magazine" attachment gives the gun extremely long magazines, similar to the M1911A1 Machine Pistol pictured below, but only increases the capacity from 7 to 10 rounds.
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:1911machinepistol.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt M1911A1 Machine Pistol factory full-auto conversion - .38 Super. The in-game "Jupiter" variant of the M1911 looks similar to this, but without the compensator and the extended magazine.]]

==Enfield No. 2==
An [[Enfield No. 2]] can be seen in the holster of 1st Lieutenant Joseph Turner ([[Jeffrey Pierce]]) in the campaign, and is usable during a key scripted section of the story. It is incorrectly depicted with a swing-out cylinder rather than top-break. Its use by American forces in the campaign is also a bit inaccurate; a more appropriate service revolver would be the [[Colt M1917]].

[[File:CoDWWII-enfre 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels ([[Brett Zimmerman]]) holds Turner's revolver.]]

==LP-42 Flare Pistol==
The [[LP-42 Flare Pistol|Leuchtpistole 42]] is a collectable memento during the seventh singleplayer mission "''Death Factory''".

[[File:CoDWWII-lp 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels finds the Flare gun.]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]] as the main sidearm of the Germans. Equipping the gun with the "Extended Mags" attachment gives it a 32-round ''Trommelmagazin 08'', although the weapon's capacity is only increased to 12 rounds.
[[File:LugerP08Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Luger P08 - 9x19mm]]

[[File:CoDWWII-Luger 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later, he prepares to chamber an oddly pointy 9x19mm round, after replacing the weapon's empty magazine with a fresh one.]]

==Borchardt C-93==
Interestingly, the "Der Adler" and "Adlertag" Epic variants of the Luger heavily resemble the [[Borchardt C-93]], an earlier pistol whose toggle-lock operation inspired the Luger's design.
[[Image:borchardtc93.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Borchardt C-93 - 7.65x25mm Borchardt]]

==Nambu Type 14==
The [[Nambu Type 14]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as the "Abwehr" Epic variant for the Luger P08 (with the "Torch" variant also resembling it a bit), despite being a completely different handgun in real life.
[[file:NambuType14Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Nambu Type 14 - 8x22mm Nambu]]

==Mauser C96==
The [[Mauser C96]] is available in the game. During alpha stage, it was designated as "[[Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|M712]]", which is incorrect since it lacks a fire selector. This means it committed the error of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops III|Black Ops III]]'' in reverse; those games had an M712 Schnellfeuer incorrectly referred to as a C96, whereas this game has a C96 incorrectly referred to as an M712. In-game, it is referred to as "Machine Pistol" and behaves like an M712, firing in full-auto mode and using detachable magazines.

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
The [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] appears in the game as the "Waffe 28". Despite having a low rate of fire at ~500 rounds/minute in real life, in-game this gun seems to fire almost twice that at around 900 rounds/minute. When fitted with the "Extended Magazine" attachment (the same TM 08 snail drum used for the Luger that somehow gives the MP28 48 rounds), it resembles its predecessor, the [[Bergmann MP18]].

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] is available in the game, incorrectly referred to as the M1928 variant: while US soldiers did use the M1928A1 early in their involvement in WW2 since the M1 did not enter service until April 1942, the gun shown in the game has the triangular rear sight guard "ears" of an M1A1, a right-side charging handle and an unribbed barrel, and does not have a Cutts Compensator which military M1928A1s usually did. The extended magazine attachment gives it a drum magazine, which is incorrect: while an actual M1928 could accept a drum, the simplified M1 and M1A1 lacked this feature since the drum was deemed too heavy and unreliable for combat. In multiplayer, the "Handler" variant gains a long ribbed barrel like that of the [[Auto Ordnance M1927 Thompson]], as well as a vertical foregrip.

==M1928A1 Thompson==
In campaign, the Thompson used by Sgt. Pierson is actually an M1928A1, as evidenced by the charging handle being on the top of the receiver, as well as the appropriate ribbed barrel and foregrip being present, though the weapon still has the rear sight of an M1A1. In multiplayer, the "Wilco", "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants of the Thompson are also modeled after M1928A1s. The "Wilco" has a long barrel like the Auto Ordnance M1927, while the "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants have the early 'simplified' rear sight, a shorter barrel and no stock nor foregrip. It is to note that that none of the Thompsons appearing in the game have a Cutts Compensator.

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3 Grease Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]], and is the first available submachine gun in multiplayer. The extended magazine is for some reason the same TM 08 snail drum magazine used by the [[Luger|Luger Artillery Model]] and [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II|MP28]], which gives the Grease Gun 45 rounds.

==Błyskawica==
The Błyskawica ("Lightning") was an open-bolt submachine gun derived from the Sten and used by the Polish resistance in World War II. Despite some claims, however, it is NOT a direct copy of the Sten; it has mechanical elements from both the Sten and the MP40. In game, it changes the appearance of the M3 Grease Gun under the "Brandi" variant.

[[File:File:Grease gun brandi 2.jpg|thumb|right|600px|The Błyskawica in game with a wooden stock and cut down barrel. This variant does not exist in real life.]]

==MP40==
The iconic [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] returns as the main German submachine gun.
[[File:MP40.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MP40_0.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 in-game. Like in every other WWII game and movie, the player still holds the gun by the magazine, which increases the risk of jamming it.]]

==MP41==
The "Wunderwaffe" and "Do-Re-Mi" Epic variants of the MP40 replace the pistol grips and underfolding stocks with rifle stocks, increasing their resemblance to the [[MP41]].
[[Image:Mp41-1.jpg|thumb|400px|none|The MP41. It was produced and used in small quantities in 1941 to 1942.]]

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] appears in the game, along with both the stick magazine, and the drum magazine. It also seems to have the early version of the sights. One thing to note is that it uses a PPS-43 magwell, though the drum mag version uses the correct magwell. Its rate of fire is substantially lower in-game than in real life. The epic PPSh-41 variant "Thrive" added on the weapon barrel from the [[SVT-40]].

==PPS-43==
The "Iron Curtain" Epic variant of the PPSh-41 has a pistol grip and folding stock in lieu of the traditional wooden stock, increasing its resemblance to the [[PPS-43]]. Meanwhile the "Duck Soup" variant is essentially a somewhat shortened PPS-43, or a Tikkakoski M/44 when the drum magazine attachment is chosen.
[[Image:PPSh-43-Submachine-Gun.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Soviet PPS-43 Submachine Gun - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', but is now correctly held by the handguard. Unlike the ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'', the version is this game is the earlier Type 100/40, notable for the adjustable rear sight, bayonet lug, and slower rate of fire.

=Shotguns=
==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The rare [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]], a combination shotgun / rifle only issued to Luftwaffe aircrews, is available. By default, only the shotgun barrels are used, but the "Rifle Bullet" attachment allows the third barrel to be used. The latter basically fires a powerful rifle round with a range and damage comparable to that of a sniper rifle. This is rather unrealistic as the rifle barrel was only issued with soft-pointed bullets: firing these at a human would constitute a war crime. The two barrels being choked for different types of shell (slugs on the left and birdshot on the right) are not simulated.

==Walther Toggle-Action==
The rare Walther toggle-action shotgun is available, simply referred to as "Toggle Action". It erroneously feeds from a detachable box magazine (or drum when the extended mag attachment is equipped) rather than its internal tube magazine. The box magazine is likely from the A115, an experimental semi-automatic rifle developed by Walther in the 1930s. The "Winter's Wild" and "Dynamo" Epic variants have lever loops for some reason, making the Walther look like a Mare's Leg.

==Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] is available with an incorrect tube capacity of 7 shells (10 with extended magazine) instead of 5. It was referred to as "Winchester 1897" and then "M97 Trench Gun" in earlier stages of the game, only to be renamed to simply "Combat Shotgun" in the final version. Like other shotguns in the game, it is able to use incendiary shells at division level 1.

==Winchester Model 1912 Trench Gun==
The "Battle" and "Trench Runner" variants of the weapon turns the weapon into a Winchester Model 1912, with the weapon fitted with a bayonet lug and internal hammer. It doesn't function any different from the default "Combat Shotgun" and only for aesthetics.

==Winchester Model 21==
The [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Side by Side Shotgun|Winchester Model 21]] double-barreled shotgun appears in the game with the barrels sawed off. It was referred to as "Model 21" in early footage, but was later renamed to simply "Sawed-off Shotgun" in the final game. In multiplayer, the "Domino" variant gives the shotgun full-sized barrels, while the "Acrobat" and "Cruiser" have their barrels sawed off even more than the base version, as well as gaining a vertical foregrip. As for the "Crusader" variant, it has the stock sawed off (which is also the case for the Acrobat).

=Rifles=
==Fallschirmjägergewehr 42==
The [[FG42]] is a usable automatic rifle in-game. It is the late war/second model, unlike the versions seen in previous installments. The "Stinkeroo" and "Revised" Epic variants have circular slotted barrel shrouds, giving them a resemblance to the [[MG30]] machine gun.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is available in the game. When the "Extended Mags" attachment is equipped, the weapon is fitted with the rare 20-rounder trench magazine from the earlier Gewehr 98 and Kar98 models, which is incorrectly shown as detachable, and only holds 7 rounds in-game.

==Kbsp wz. 38M==
The [[Kbsp wz. 38M]] (Karabin samopowtarzalny wzór 38M) appears in the game, simply referred to as the "Karabin". A surprising inclusion in-game, given that only around 150 of the rifles were ever built. It incorrectly features a detachable magazine like the [[Gewehr 43]]; the real-life rifle has a non-detachable magazine fed by Mauser stripper clips, which wouldn't be possible on the in-game sniper variant because the scope is blocking it.

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)#Short Magazine Lee-Enfield rifle|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)]] appears in the game. It was referred to as the "Commonwealth" in the beta, but this was later changed to "Lee Enfield". Like the Springfield, it is still loaded with stripper clips even though the scope is blocking the magazine; it also replenishes all 10 rounds with just one clip.

The "Sweetie" Epic variant is based on the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I as it lacks the cheek rest on the buttstock, while the "Roundabout" and "The Royal" are sawed-off to pistol size, though "The Royal" variant still has a No.4 Mk.I buttstock.

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1 Carbine]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', still labeled as the "M1A1". Notably, it is able to equip a bayonet, yet it visibly lacks a bayonet lug. For some reason, it also has a hooded sight as well, which was never issued on any carbines.

==M1 Garand==
The iconic battle rifle of the American forces, the [[M1 Garand]], makes a return in this game. Like in ''World at War'', the weapon can be reloaded mid-clip, though it makes the ping sound and ejects the clip anyway. When fitted with the "Extended Mag" attachment, it gains a detachable magazine, similar to the experimental T20 select-fire variant.

==M1941 Johnson rifle==
The "Battle Watch" and "Savior" variants of the M1941 Johnson machine gun turn its visual appearance into that of the [[M1941 Johnson rifle|M1941 semi-automatic rifle]], though it retains the full-auto fire and the side-mounted detachable magazine of the M1941 machine gun.
[[File:M1941Johnson.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson rifle - .30-06]]

==Springfield M1903==
The [[Springfield M1903]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as an available sniper rifle. The rifle can incorrectly be loaded with stripper clips even if the scope is blocking the magazine. As with all of the bolt-action rifles, a full stripper clip is used to reload the weapon, regardless of how many rounds remain in the magazine.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Strumgewehr 44]] returns to the game as the only true assault rifle in game. It performs a similar reload to the [[AK-47]] rifles seen in previous iterations as well as on the "MP44" in [[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]]. Interestingly, the "Serum" variant creates a fictitious shorten variant of the weapon with a cut down barrel, gas system, and an MP40-type folding stock.

The [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] is the Epic variant of the [[Sturmgewehr 44]]. It is statistically identical to the standard variant, apart from a 10% XP boost granted to the user. The weapon's animations are the same as those of the StG 44.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
Yet another weapon returning from previous games, the [[SVT-40]] is usable. Interestingly, the "Shack Man" Epic variant of the SVT gives it a receiver rather like an AG42B Ljungman rifle. In the campaign, it also widely used by German soldiers, probably since the game lacks the much more appropriate [[Gewehr 43]] (which, incidentally, has some historical significance, since Wehrmacht soldiers used captured SVTs in the early stages of the war, due to the lack of proper own semi-automatic rifles). In multiplayer, the SVT is unlocked automatically after prestiging the Infantry division.

==Winchester Model 1894==
A [[Winchester Model 1894]] is seen in the hands of a young Ronald "Red" Daniels in the intro cutscene of the campaign mission "Stronghold", though it is not available for use.

=Machine Guns=
As with multiple ''Call of Duty'' titles, the machine guns class is referred to as "light machine guns", even though the game includes the MG15 and MG42 general-purpose machine guns. An in-game text in the campaign also lists the M1919A4 as an LMG, which is incorrect since it is a medium machine gun.

==Besa==
The [[Besa machine gun]] is mounted on a British Light Tank Mk VI on the "''Gibraltar''".

==Browning M1919A4==
The [[Browning M1919A4]] machine gun returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as a mounted machine gun, although it can be dismounted and used as a portable weapon in campaign only, with a 250-round belt.

==Bren Mk1 (M)==
The [[Bren Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 3]], replacing the [[Type 99 Light Machine Gun|Type 99 light machine gun]] featured in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]''. It fires at a sluggish 300 rpm, around 200 rpm slower than its real-life variant, but compensates for it by having a two-shot kill at all ranges. Amusingly, the "King and Country" and "Combatant" Epic variants are fitted with giant cooling jackets, which aren't necessary considering the lower rate of fire and quick-change barrel.

==Lewis Gun==
The [[Lewis Gun]] appears for the first time in a ''Call of Duty'' game. The version shown is a WW2 British modification of obsolete surplus WW1-era aircraft-mounted Lewis Guns for issue to the Home Guard, fitting them with stocks and pistol grips: this was when, much to the chagrin of WW1 veterans, it was discovered that the gun functioned just fine without its heavy forced-air cooling jacket. The "Chatter Box" and "Landship" Epic variants do have their barrel shrouds, though the "Chatter Box" version lacks the stock like the Aircraft Lewis Gun image below.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', now classified as an automatic rifle, despite the M1918A2 meant to fulfill the light machine gun role. Unlike previous games, the charging handle doesn't reciprocate back when the weapon is fired. Interestingly, the weapon in cutscenes has a bipod attached to it, but it disappears during gameplay. Instead, in MP, it serves to mount a fictitious bayonet.
[[File:BAR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06]]

This sight never saw any combat use, and was not particularly popular with civilian shooters due to being rather fragile. Note that the weapon also incorrectly has a bayonet.]]

==M1941 Johnson machine gun==
The [[M1941 Johnson machine gun]] appears as another new light machine gun in the game. It is incorrectly categorized as a rifle instead of an LMG.
[[File:JOHNSON M1941.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson machine gun - .30-06]]
[[File:CoDWWII-M1941.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier holding a Johnson machine gun. There are 2 things to note here: the first is the magazine, which is too short for the in-game 25-round capacity (the actual weapon's far longer magazine held 20 rounds, although 5 more could be left in the magazine well for a total of 25; the appropriate magazine is only fitted to the weapon if it has the Extended Mags attachment, and incorrectly holds 37 rounds). The second is the bayonet, which is also incorrect, as the weapon lacks a bayonet lug; furthermore, the weapon's short-recoil operation, and resultant reciprocating barrel (not shown in-game), would make it difficult for the bayonet to stay attached.]]

[[File:CoDWWII-M1941_3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

==MG15==
The [[MG15 machine gun]] is yet another new machine gun in the game. Although the gun was originally designed to be mounted on aircraft, a few guns were fitted with bipods and converted to infantry use during the war. Nevertheless, the [[MG34]] would be a more suitable weapon. Oddly, the weapon's fire rate is far lower than its real world counterpart, not even close to the actual weapon's 1,000 RPM; this is likely for the usual balance reasons (although one could argue that if the weapon were given the appropriate fire rate, then the sheer uncontrollability of its recoil could balance it instead).

[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the MG15. Note the completely incorrect iron sights; these are the aircraft sights, rather than the appropriate infantry sights (a drum with a notch for the rear sight, adjustable for range, and a front post, both mounted below and to the left of the standard aircraft sights) mounted onto weapons issued to ground troops; furthermore, they aren't even correct for the aircraft sights, as the front sight has only 4 intersecting lines rather than 8 and no inner circle, and the rear sight is a post, rather than the appropriate v-notch.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading, which involves a great deal of struggling with the magazine; this might have something to do with the fact that the magazine release is never touched during this animation; the player character instead operates the magazine locking lever, the developers apparently having mistakenly believed that that was the magazine release.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MG15 fitted with Extended Mags, which gives it the correct 75-round double drum magazine.]]

==MG34==
The [[MG34]] is mounted on German tanks.

[[File:CoDWWII-MG34.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MG34 mounted on a Panzer IV.]]

==MG42==
The iconic [[MG42]], returns from [[Call of Duty: World at War|''World at War'']] in both mounted and man-portable versions. Despite its fearsome reputation and nickname, the weapon has an absurdly slower rate of fire in multiplayer like the [[MG15 machine gun|MG15]] for the sake of balance, although it fires at its proper rate in the campaign and zombie modes. The "Devil's Piano" Epic variant lacks its distinct skeletal barrel shroud, resembling a [[SIG MG50]] while the "Zipper" Epic variant has a circular barrel shroud like the [[MG34]].

=Launchers=
==Luftfaust==
The Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B), a 9-barrel German 20mm anti-aircraft rocket launcher that never got past the prototype phase, is available in Zombies mode. Its two in-game names are oddly backwards: it is called the "Fliegerfaust," changing to "Luftfaust-B" when it is Pack-A-Punched. While German records indicate only 80 of these launchers were issued for combat trials, all to a unit in Saarbrücken, there is a photograph of three discarded Luftfaust launchers lying in the rubble of the Hotel Adlon taken during the Siege of Berlin in 1945, suggesting this is one of the less far-fetched experimental weapons to show up in the series.

The weapon is shown as firing rockets individually or in an alternate "free-fire" fully automatic mode, which is incorrect: while there is some disagreement about what the Luftfaust actually ''did'', all sources agree it was some kind of volley fire weapon, with one trigger pull either firing all of the tubes in sequence with a pre-set delay between them, or firing the central tube and every other one of the outer tubes first, then the remaining four 0.1 or 0.2 seconds later. The latter is more commonly reported, with the logic being it would produce a reasonably tight group of rockets while preventing the rockets from damaging or deflecting each other with their exhausts. It is also shown causing massive fiery explosions with each shot, while the real Luftfaust's projectiles were rather more anaemic high-explosive bullets from 20x138mm B cannon rounds fitted with rocket motors.

[[Image:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Allied forces. It is actually shown being reloaded correctly: while later Bazooka variants required wires to be connected to a contact clip at the rear of the launcher, on the M1 the contact was with a brass ring around the nose of the rocket. This method was made impossible when the M1A1 variant wrapped the rear section of the tube in wire to prevent it from bursting on hot days and eliminated the contact box on top of the tube as a point of structural weakness.
[[File:Bazookasmithsonian.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1 "Bazooka" - 2.36 inch]]
[[File:CoDWWII-BAZ 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in-game: note the twin grips, showing this to be the earliest M1 model, which is severely outdated by the end of the campaign. The bunker complex ahead appears to be a FuMG 41/42 Mammut phased array radar, also seen in ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'': this implies this level is set in occupied France, meaning an M1A1 or M9 bazooka should be shown instead.]]

==M7 grenade launcher==
The [[M7 Rifle Grenade Launcher]] only appears in the campaign, and is always attached to the [[M1 Garand]]. The Garand is incorrectly shown as being able to fire in semi-auto with the M7 attached to the muzzle, something that was only possible with the postwar M7A1-M7A3.

[[File:CoDWWII-Pfaust.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Two Panzerfausts in a weapon crate.]]

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Axis forces.
[[Image:Tank h5.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPzB 54 "Panzerschreck" rocket launcher - 88mm]]

[[File:CoDWWII-Panzerschreck3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the Panzerschreck. The player character does not press down the contact pin on the top of the contact box (the box on the left with a wire leading to it) which would mean there was no electrical connection to fire the rocket. In fact loading it like this would probably result in the rocket falling straight through the tube, since the tail had to be located carefully in a specific position by manipulating a locking lever. And given a Panzerschreck is 65 inches long while the average WW2 soldier was 68 inches tall, this view would probably require either a box to stand on or the muzzle to be shoved into the ground.]]

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 35==
The [[Flammenwerfer 35]] appears as the main flamethrower for the Axis forces and is collectable memento during the third mission "''Stronghold''".

==No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "British No. 69." It is incorrectly shown as the equivalent of a flashbang grenade: the No. 69 was what the British termed an "offensive" lethal grenade designed to have a smaller radius of effect than a "defensive" fragmentation grenade like the Mills Bomb. The [[MK3 offensive hand grenade|American Mk3 Offensive Blast Grenade]], a concussion grenade, would probably be the closest period weapon in terms of function, though it too was designed to be lethal.

==80-cm-Kanone (E) ''Schwerer Gustav''==
The ''Schwerer Gustav'' railway gun is in the middle of the "''Gustav Cannon''" map that stands for the outskirts of Sevastopol.

==Bofors 40mm==
Several [[Bofors 40mm]] AA-guns are seen on the map "''Gibraltar''".

==Browning M2 Aircraft==

During the campaign mission ''Battle of the Bulge'' the player briefly takes control of a P-47 Thunderbolt, part of a group that are for some reason flying an air-superiority mission defending a stream of B-17Gs while armed with bombs. Both the P-47s and the bombers are armed with the [[Browning M2 Aircraft]]. In reality the P-47 would not be able to make it this far into France escorting bombers from England without carrying external drop tanks (which the aircraft in the game do not), and at this point in the war the P-51D Mustang had taken over most bomber escort duties. While P-47s were present in the Battle of the Bulge, they were operating from airfields in the Low Countries (the modern Benelux region) and were specifically tasked with ground attack missions rather than bomber escort duty.

The "fighter pilot" scorestreak in multiplayer uses the P-47 model, while the "ball turret gunner" uses the B-17G model.

==Canon de 155mm GPF==
Daniels squad must destroy a Canon de 155 Grande Puissance Filloux (GPF) during the D-Day. 1st Lieutenant Turner calls it a "GPF" gun. In ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' Corporal Bill Taylor must destroy this cannon, too.

===155 mm "Long Tom"===
The American variant of the GPF is mounted on a M40 Gun Motor Carriage on the map "''Aachen''". This is may be a reference to the fifteenth mission of "''Call of Duty: Finest Hour''" "Surrender at Aachen" where the M40 is seen forcing the Germans to surrender.

'''Call of Duty: WWII''' is a first-person shooter developed by Sledgehammer Games for the PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One. Being the fourteenth main game in the series, it is also the first installment since ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'' to be set in World War II, and the fifth main WWII title in the series.

{{VG Title}}

=Overview=
In ''WWII'', the extended magazine attachment changes the model of the magazine, but in most cases applies a flat 50% increase to the magazine capacity, which often results in completely wrong capacities for real magazines.

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
The [[M1911A1]] returns as the main American sidearm. Interestingly, the "extended magazine" attachment gives the gun extremely long magazines, similar to the M1911A1 Machine Pistol pictured below, but only increases the capacity from 7 to 10 rounds.
[[File:M1911Colt.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP]]
[[File:1911machinepistol.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Colt M1911A1 Machine Pistol factory full-auto conversion - .38 Super. The in-game "Jupiter" variant of the M1911 looks similar to this, but without the compensator and the extended magazine.]]

==Enfield No. 2==
An [[Enfield No. 2]] can be seen in the holster of 1st Lieutenant Joseph Turner ([[Jeffrey Pierce]]) in the campaign, and is usable during a key scripted section of the story. It is incorrectly depicted with a swing-out cylinder rather than top-break. Its use by American forces in the campaign is also a bit inaccurate; a more appropriate service revolver would be the [[Colt M1917]].

[[File:CoDWWII-enfre 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels ([[Brett Zimmerman]]) holds Turner's revolver.]]

==LP-42 Flare Pistol==
The [[LP-42 Flare Pistol|Leuchtpistole 42]] is a collectable memento during the seventh singleplayer mission "''Death Factory''".

[[File:CoDWWII-lp 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Daniels finds the Flare gun.]]

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]] as the main sidearm of the Germans. Equipping the gun with the "Extended Mags" attachment gives it a 32-round ''Trommelmagazin 08'', although the weapon's capacity is only increased to 12 rounds.

[[File:CoDWWII-Luger 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Later, he prepares to chamber an oddly pointy 9x19mm round, after replacing the weapon's empty magazine with a fresh one.]]

==Borchardt C-93==
Interestingly, the "Der Adler" and "Adlertag" Epic variants of the Luger heavily resemble the [[Borchardt C-93]], an earlier pistol whose toggle-lock operation inspired the Luger's design.
[[Image:borchardtc93.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Borchardt C-93 - 7.65x25mm Borchardt]]

==Nambu Type 14==
The [[Nambu Type 14]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as the "Abwehr" Epic variant for the Luger P08 (with the "Torch" variant also resembling it a bit), despite being a completely different handgun in real life.
[[file:NambuType14Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Nambu Type 14 - 8x22mm Nambu]]

==Mauser C96==
The [[Mauser C96]] is available in the game. During alpha stage, it was designated as "[[Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer|M712]]", which is incorrect since it lacks a fire selector. This means it committed the error of ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops II|Black Ops II]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops III|Black Ops III]]'' in reverse; those games had an M712 Schnellfeuer incorrectly referred to as a C96, whereas this game has a C96 incorrectly referred to as an M712. In-game, it is referred to as "Machine Pistol" and behaves like an M712, firing in full-auto mode and using detachable magazines.

[[File:CoDWWII-c96 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

The "Holzpistole" and "Schlange" Epic variants have long barrels like the C96 carbine as seen in [[Battlefield 1]], with the Holzpistole having the buttstock as well.
[[File:C96carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|The very rare full stocked C96 carbine - 7.63x25mm Mauser]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
The [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] appears in the game as the "Waffe 28". Despite having a low rate of fire at ~500 rounds/minute in real life, in-game this gun seems to fire almost twice that at around 900 rounds/minute. When fitted with the "Extended Magazine" attachment (the same TM 08 snail drum used for the Luger that somehow gives the MP28 48 rounds), it resembles its predecessor, the [[Bergmann MP18]].

==M1A1 Thompson==
The [[M1A1 Thompson]] is available in the game, incorrectly referred to as the M1928 variant: while US soldiers did use the M1928A1 early in their involvement in WW2 since the M1 did not enter service until April 1942, the gun shown in the game has the triangular rear sight guard "ears" of an M1A1, a right-side charging handle and an unribbed barrel, and does not have a Cutts Compensator which military M1928A1s usually did. The extended magazine attachment gives it a drum magazine, which is incorrect: while an actual M1928 could accept a drum, the simplified M1 and M1A1 lacked this feature since the drum was deemed too heavy and unreliable for combat. In multiplayer, the "Handler" variant gains a long ribbed barrel like that of the [[Auto Ordnance M1927 Thompson]], as well as a vertical foregrip.

[[File:CoDWWII-Thom 5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading.]]

==M1928A1 Thompson==
In campaign, the Thompson used by Sgt. Pierson is actually an M1928A1, as evidenced by the charging handle being on the top of the receiver, as well as the appropriate ribbed barrel and foregrip being present, though the weapon still has the rear sight of an M1A1. In multiplayer, the "Wilco", "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants of the Thompson are also modeled after M1928A1s. The "Wilco" has a long barrel like the Auto Ordnance M1927, while the "Buck Private" and "Wayfinder" variants have the early 'simplified' rear sight, a shorter barrel and no stock nor foregrip. It is to note that that none of the Thompsons appearing in the game have a Cutts Compensator.

==M3 "Grease Gun"==
The [[M3 Grease Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 2]], and is the first available submachine gun in multiplayer. The extended magazine is for some reason the same TM 08 snail drum magazine used by the [[Luger|Luger Artillery Model]] and [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II|MP28]], which gives the Grease Gun 45 rounds.

==Błyskawica==
The Błyskawica ("Lightning") was an open-bolt submachine gun derived from the Sten and used by the Polish resistance in World War II. Despite some claims, however, it is NOT a direct copy of the Sten; it has mechanical elements from both the Sten and the MP40. In game, it changes the appearance of the M3 Grease Gun under the "Brandi" variant.

[[File:File:Grease gun brandi 2.jpg|thumb|right|600px|The Błyskawica in game with a wooden stock and cut down barrel. This variant does not exist in real life.]]

==MP40==
The iconic [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] returns as the main German submachine gun.
[[File:MP40.jpg|thumb|none|400px|MP40 - 9x19mm]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MP40_0.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The MP40 in-game. Like in every other WWII game and movie, the player still holds the gun by the magazine, which increases the risk of jamming it.]]

==MP41==
The "Wunderwaffe" and "Do-Re-Mi" Epic variants of the MP40 replace the pistol grips and underfolding stocks with rifle stocks, increasing their resemblance to the [[MP41]].
[[Image:Mp41-1.jpg|thumb|400px|none|The MP41. It was produced and used in small quantities in 1941 to 1942.]]

==PPSh-41==
The [[PPSh-41]] appears in the game, along with both the stick magazine, and the drum magazine. It also seems to have the early version of the sights. One thing to note is that it uses a PPS-43 magwell, though the drum mag version uses the correct magwell. Its rate of fire is substantially lower in-game than in real life. The epic PPSh-41 variant "Thrive" added on the weapon barrel from the [[SVT-40]].

[[File:CoDWWII-PPSh.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The PPSh-41 equipped with a "lens sight".]]

==PPS-43==
The "Iron Curtain" Epic variant of the PPSh-41 has a pistol grip and folding stock in lieu of the traditional wooden stock, increasing its resemblance to the [[PPS-43]]. Meanwhile the "Duck Soup" variant is essentially a somewhat shortened PPS-43, or a Tikkakoski M/44 when the drum magazine attachment is chosen.
[[Image:PPSh-43-Submachine-Gun.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Soviet PPS-43 Submachine Gun - 7.62x25mm Tokarev]]

==Type 100==
The [[Type 100 submachine gun]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', but is now correctly held by the handguard. Unlike the ''[[Call of Duty: World at War]]'', the version is this game is the earlier Type 100/40, notable for the adjustable rear sight, bayonet lug, and slower rate of fire.

=Shotguns=
==M30 Luftwaffe Drilling==
The rare [[M30 Luftwaffe Drilling]], a combination shotgun / rifle only issued to Luftwaffe aircrews, is available. By default, only the shotgun barrels are used, but the "Rifle Bullet" attachment allows the third barrel to be used. The latter basically fires a powerful rifle round with a range and damage comparable to that of a sniper rifle. This is rather unrealistic as the rifle barrel was only issued with soft-pointed bullets: firing these at a human would constitute a war crime. The two barrels being choked for different types of shell (slugs on the left and birdshot on the right) are not simulated.

==Walther Toggle-Action==
The rare Walther toggle-action shotgun is available, simply referred to as "Toggle Action". It erroneously feeds from a detachable box magazine (or drum when the extended mag attachment is equipped) rather than its internal tube magazine. The box magazine is likely from the A115, an experimental semi-automatic rifle developed by Walther in the 1930s. The "Winter's Wild" and "Dynamo" Epic variants have lever loops for some reason, making the Walther look like a Mare's Leg.

==Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] is available with an incorrect tube capacity of 7 shells (10 with extended magazine) instead of 5. It was referred to as "Winchester 1897" and then "M97 Trench Gun" in earlier stages of the game, only to be renamed to simply "Combat Shotgun" in the final version. Like other shotguns in the game, it is able to use incendiary shells at division level 1.

==Winchester Model 1912 Trench Gun==
The "Battle" and "Trench Runner" variants of the weapon turns the weapon into a Winchester Model 1912, with the weapon fitted with a bayonet lug and internal hammer. It doesn't function any different from the default "Combat Shotgun" and only for aesthetics.

==Winchester Model 21==
The [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Side by Side Shotgun|Winchester Model 21]] double-barreled shotgun appears in the game with the barrels sawed off. It was referred to as "Model 21" in early footage, but was later renamed to simply "Sawed-off Shotgun" in the final game. In multiplayer, the "Domino" variant gives the shotgun full-sized barrels, while the "Acrobat" and "Cruiser" have their barrels sawed off even more than the base version, as well as gaining a vertical foregrip. As for the "Crusader" variant, it has the stock sawed off (which is also the case for the Acrobat).

=Rifles=
==Fallschirmjägergewehr 42==
The [[FG42]] is a usable automatic rifle in-game. It is the late war/second model, unlike the versions seen in previous installments. The "Stinkeroo" and "Revised" Epic variants have circular slotted barrel shrouds, giving them a resemblance to the [[MG30]] machine gun.

==Karabiner 98k==
The [[Karabiner 98k]] is available in the game. When the "Extended Mags" attachment is equipped, the weapon is fitted with the rare 20-rounder trench magazine from the earlier Gewehr 98 and Kar98 models, which is incorrectly shown as detachable, and only holds 7 rounds in-game.

==Kbsp wz. 38M==
The [[Kbsp wz. 38M]] (Karabin samopowtarzalny wzór 38M) appears in the game, simply referred to as the "Karabin". A surprising inclusion in-game, given that only around 150 of the rifles were ever built. It incorrectly features a detachable magazine like the [[Gewehr 43]]; the real-life rifle has a non-detachable magazine fed by Mauser stripper clips, which wouldn't be possible on the in-game sniper variant because the scope is blocking it.

==Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)#Short Magazine Lee-Enfield rifle|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T)]] appears in the game. It was referred to as the "Commonwealth" in the beta, but this was later changed to "Lee Enfield". Like the Springfield, it is still loaded with stripper clips even though the scope is blocking the magazine; it also replenishes all 10 rounds with just one clip.

The "Sweetie" Epic variant is based on the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I as it lacks the cheek rest on the buttstock, while the "Roundabout" and "The Royal" are sawed-off to pistol size, though "The Royal" variant still has a No.4 Mk.I buttstock.

==M1 Carbine==
The [[M1 Carbine]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', still labeled as the "M1A1". Notably, it is able to equip a bayonet, yet it visibly lacks a bayonet lug. For some reason, it also has a hooded sight as well, which was never issued on any carbines.

The "Bite The Dust" and "Bug Juice" Epic variants have proper M1A1 folding stocks, though the former has a longer barrel, and the latter has a shorter one.
[[File:M1A1Carbine.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M1A1 Carbine with original L style rear sights, and side-folding stock, often referred to as the 'Paratrooper' carbine - .30 Carbine]]

==M1 Garand==
The iconic battle rifle of the American forces, the [[M1 Garand]], makes a return in this game. Like in ''World at War'', the weapon can be reloaded mid-clip, though it makes the ping sound and ejects the clip anyway. When fitted with the "Extended Mag" attachment, it gains a detachable magazine, similar to the experimental T20 select-fire variant.

==M1941 Johnson rifle==
The "Battle Watch" and "Savior" variants of the M1941 Johnson machine gun turn its visual appearance into that of the [[M1941 Johnson rifle|M1941 semi-automatic rifle]], though it retains the full-auto fire and the side-mounted detachable magazine of the M1941 machine gun.
[[File:M1941Johnson.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson rifle - .30-06]]

==Springfield M1903==
The [[Springfield M1903]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as an available sniper rifle. The rifle can incorrectly be loaded with stripper clips even if the scope is blocking the magazine. As with all of the bolt-action rifles, a full stripper clip is used to reload the weapon, regardless of how many rounds remain in the magazine.

==Sturmgewehr 44==
The [[Strumgewehr 44]] returns to the game as the only true assault rifle in game. It performs a similar reload to the [[AK-47]] rifles seen in previous iterations as well as on the "MP44" in [[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare]]. Interestingly, the "Serum" variant creates a fictitious shorten variant of the weapon with a cut down barrel, gas system, and an MP40-type folding stock.

==Sturmgewehr 45(M)==
The [[Sturmgewehr 45(M)]] is the Epic variant of the [[Sturmgewehr 44]]. It is statistically identical to the standard variant, apart from a 10% XP boost granted to the user. The weapon's animations are the same as those of the StG 44.

==Tokarev SVT-40==
Yet another weapon returning from previous games, the [[SVT-40]] is usable. Interestingly, the "Shack Man" Epic variant of the SVT gives it a receiver rather like an AG42B Ljungman rifle. In the campaign, it also widely used by German soldiers, probably since the game lacks the much more appropriate [[Gewehr 43]] (which, incidentally, has some historical significance, since Wehrmacht soldiers used captured SVTs in the early stages of the war, due to the lack of proper own semi-automatic rifles). In multiplayer, the SVT is unlocked automatically after prestiging the Infantry division.

==Winchester Model 1894==
A [[Winchester Model 1894]] is seen in the hands of a young Ronald "Red" Daniels in the intro cutscene of the campaign mission "Stronghold", though it is not available for use.
[[File:WinchesterModel1894.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Winchester 1894 - .30-30]]

=Machine Guns=
As with multiple ''Call of Duty'' titles, the machine guns class is referred to as "light machine guns", even though the game includes the MG15 and MG42 general-purpose machine guns. An in-game text in the campaign also lists the M1919A4 as an LMG, which is incorrect since it is a medium machine gun.

==Besa==
The [[Besa machine gun]] is mounted on a British Light Tank Mk VI on the "''Gibraltar''".

==Browning M1919A4==
The [[Browning M1919A4]] machine gun returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' as a mounted machine gun, although it can be dismounted and used as a portable weapon in campaign only, with a 250-round belt.

==Bren Mk1 (M)==
The [[Bren Gun]] returns from [[Call of Duty 3]], replacing the [[Type 99 Light Machine Gun|Type 99 light machine gun]] featured in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]''. It fires at a sluggish 300 rpm, around 200 rpm slower than its real-life variant, but compensates for it by having a two-shot kill at all ranges. Amusingly, the "King and Country" and "Combatant" Epic variants are fitted with giant cooling jackets, which aren't necessary considering the lower rate of fire and quick-change barrel.
[[File:Bren gun.JPG|thumb|none|450px|Bren Mk1 (M) - .303 British]]
[[File:CoDWWII-bren1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bren in-game. Note that it has a hole in the magazine release catch, a feature of a Bren Mk2, though it is entirely possible that this would end up on a Mk1 as a replacement part.]]

==Lewis Gun==
The [[Lewis Gun]] appears for the first time in a ''Call of Duty'' game. The version shown is a WW2 British modification of obsolete surplus WW1-era aircraft-mounted Lewis Guns for issue to the Home Guard, fitting them with stocks and pistol grips: this was when, much to the chagrin of WW1 veterans, it was discovered that the gun functioned just fine without its heavy forced-air cooling jacket. The "Chatter Box" and "Landship" Epic variants do have their barrel shrouds, though the "Chatter Box" version lacks the stock like the Aircraft Lewis Gun image below.

==M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle==
The [[Browning Automatic Rifle|BAR]] returns from ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'', now classified as an automatic rifle, despite the M1918A2 meant to fulfill the light machine gun role. Unlike previous games, the charging handle doesn't reciprocate back when the weapon is fired. Interestingly, the weapon in cutscenes has a bipod attached to it, but it disappears during gameplay. Instead, in MP, it serves to mount a fictitious bayonet.
[[File:BAR.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06]]

This sight never saw any combat use, and was not particularly popular with civilian shooters due to being rather fragile. Note that the weapon also incorrectly has a bayonet.]]

==M1941 Johnson machine gun==
The [[M1941 Johnson machine gun]] appears as another new light machine gun in the game. It is incorrectly categorized as a rifle instead of an LMG.
[[File:JOHNSON M1941.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1941 Johnson machine gun - .30-06]]
[[File:CoDWWII-M1941.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A soldier holding a Johnson machine gun. There are 2 things to note here: the first is the magazine, which is too short for the in-game 25-round capacity (the actual weapon's far longer magazine held 20 rounds, although 5 more could be left in the magazine well for a total of 25; the appropriate magazine is only fitted to the weapon if it has the Extended Mags attachment, and incorrectly holds 37 rounds). The second is the bayonet, which is also incorrect, as the weapon lacks a bayonet lug; furthermore, the weapon's short-recoil operation, and resultant reciprocating barrel (not shown in-game), would make it difficult for the bayonet to stay attached.]]

==MG15==
The [[MG15 machine gun]] is yet another new machine gun in the game. Although the gun was originally designed to be mounted on aircraft, a few guns were fitted with bipods and converted to infantry use during the war. Nevertheless, the [[MG34]] would be a more suitable weapon. Oddly, the weapon's fire rate is far lower than its real world counterpart, not even close to the actual weapon's 1,000 RPM; this is likely for the usual balance reasons (although one could argue that if the weapon were given the appropriate fire rate, then the sheer uncontrollability of its recoil could balance it instead).

[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Aiming the MG15. Note the completely incorrect iron sights; these are the aircraft sights, rather than the appropriate infantry sights (a drum with a notch for the rear sight, adjustable for range, and a front post, both mounted below and to the left of the standard aircraft sights) mounted onto weapons issued to ground troops; furthermore, they aren't even correct for the aircraft sights, as the front sight has only 4 intersecting lines rather than 8 and no inner circle, and the rear sight is a post, rather than the appropriate v-notch.]]
[[File:CoDWWII-MG15 3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading, which involves a great deal of struggling with the magazine; this might have something to do with the fact that the magazine release is never touched during this animation; the player character instead operates the magazine locking lever, the developers apparently having mistakenly believed that that was the magazine release.]]

==MG34==

==MG42==
The iconic [[MG42]], returns from [[Call of Duty: World at War|''World at War'']] in both mounted and man-portable versions. Despite its fearsome reputation and nickname, the weapon has an absurdly slower rate of fire in multiplayer like the [[MG15 machine gun|MG15]] for the sake of balance, although it fires at its proper rate in the campaign and zombie modes. The "Devil's Piano" Epic variant lacks its distinct skeletal barrel shroud, resembling a [[SIG MG50]] while the "Zipper" Epic variant has a circular barrel shroud like the [[MG34]].

=Launchers=
==Luftfaust==
The Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B), a 9-barrel German 20mm anti-aircraft rocket launcher that never got past the prototype phase, is available in Zombies mode. Its two in-game names are oddly backwards: it is called the "Fliegerfaust," changing to "Luftfaust-B" when it is Pack-A-Punched. While German records indicate only 80 of these launchers were issued for combat trials, all to a unit in Saarbrücken, there is a photograph of three discarded Luftfaust launchers lying in the rubble of the Hotel Adlon taken during the Siege of Berlin in 1945, suggesting this is one of the less far-fetched experimental weapons to show up in the series.

The weapon is shown as firing rockets individually or in an alternate "free-fire" fully automatic mode, which is incorrect: while there is some disagreement about what the Luftfaust actually ''did'', all sources agree it was some kind of volley fire weapon, with one trigger pull either firing all of the tubes in sequence with a pre-set delay between them, or firing the central tube and every other one of the outer tubes first, then the remaining four 0.1 or 0.2 seconds later. The latter is more commonly reported, with the logic being it would produce a reasonably tight group of rockets while preventing the rockets from damaging or deflecting each other with their exhausts. It is also shown causing massive fiery explosions with each shot, while the real Luftfaust's projectiles were rather more anaemic high-explosive bullets from 20x138mm B cannon rounds fitted with rocket motors.

[[Image:Luftfaust-cp.jpg|thumb|none|400px|'''Replica''' Luftfaust (aka Fliegerfaust B) with 9-rocket clip - 20mm]]

==M1 Bazooka==
The [[M1 Bazooka]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Allied forces. It is actually shown being reloaded correctly: while later Bazooka variants required wires to be connected to a contact clip at the rear of the launcher, on the M1 the contact was with a brass ring around the nose of the rocket. This method was made impossible when the M1A1 variant wrapped the rear section of the tube in wire to prevent it from bursting on hot days and eliminated the contact box on top of the tube as a point of structural weakness.

[[File:CoDWWII-BAZ 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Bazooka in-game: note the twin grips, showing this to be the earliest M1 model, which is severely outdated by the end of the campaign. The bunker complex ahead appears to be a FuMG 41/42 Mammut phased array radar, also seen in ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'': this implies this level is set in occupied France, meaning an M1A1 or M9 bazooka should be shown instead.]]

==M7 grenade launcher==
The [[M7 Rifle Grenade Launcher]] only appears in the campaign, and is always attached to the [[M1 Garand]]. The Garand is incorrectly shown as being able to fire in semi-auto with the M7 attached to the muzzle, something that was only possible with the postwar M7A1-M7A3.

[[Panzerfaust]]s can be seen through the singleplayer campaign. They're unusable for the player.

==Panzerschreck==
The [[Panzerschreck]] appears as the main anti-tank weapon for the Axis forces.

[[File:CoDWWII-Panzerschreck3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading the Panzerschreck. The player character does not press down the contact pin on the top of the contact box (the box on the left with a wire leading to it) which would mean there was no electrical connection to fire the rocket. In fact loading it like this would probably result in the rocket falling straight through the tube, since the tail had to be located carefully in a specific position by manipulating a locking lever. And given a Panzerschreck is 65 inches long while the average WW2 soldier was 68 inches tall, this view would probably require either a box to stand on or the muzzle to be shoved into the ground.]]

=Flamethrowers=
==Flammenwerfer 35==
The [[Flammenwerfer 35]] appears as the main flamethrower for the Axis forces and is collectable memento during the third mission "''Stronghold''".

==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
The [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] appears in the game, modeled with the fragmentation sleeve of the [[Model 43 Stielhandgranate]]. The correct model of the M24 is seen in ammunition boxes and on German uniforms.

==No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade==
The [[No. 69 High-Explosive Grenade]] appears in multiplayer as the "British No. 69." It is incorrectly shown as the equivalent of a flashbang grenade: the No. 69 was what the British termed an "offensive" lethal grenade designed to have a smaller radius of effect than a "defensive" fragmentation grenade like the Mills Bomb. The [[MK3 offensive hand grenade|American Mk3 Offensive Blast Grenade]], a concussion grenade, would probably be the closest period weapon in terms of function, though it too was designed to be lethal.

[[File:CoDWWII-rgd.jpg|thumb|none|250px|Two RGDs hanging from the belt.]]

==S-Mine==
The [[S-Mine]] appears as the ''S-Mine 44''. In-game, it takes the place of a soldier's grenades in multiplayer, and serves the same role as it did in ''[[Call of Duty: World at War|World at War]]'' (and the same role as the [[M18A1 Claymore]] from the modern titles).

88mm FlaKs, which appear to be the older model 18 with a one-piece barrel, can be seen throughout the singleplayer and multiplayer maps.

==Browning M2 Aircraft==

During the campaign mission ''Battle of the Bulge'' the player briefly takes control of a P-47 Thunderbolt, part of a group that are for some reason flying an air-superiority mission defending a stream of B-17Gs while armed with bombs. Both the P-47s and the bombers are armed with the [[Browning M2 Aircraft]]. In reality the P-47 would not be able to make it this far into France escorting bombers from England without carrying external drop tanks (which the aircraft in the game do not), and at this point in the war the P-51D Mustang had taken over most bomber escort duties. While P-47s were present in the Battle of the Bulge, they were operating from airfields in the Low Countries (the modern Benelux region) and were specifically tasked with ground attack missions rather than bomber escort duty.

The "fighter pilot" scorestreak in multiplayer uses the P-47 model, while the "ball turret gunner" uses the B-17G model.

==Canon de 155mm GPF==
Daniels squad must destroy a Canon de 155 Grande Puissance Filloux (GPF) during the D-Day. 1st Lieutenant Turner calls it a "GPF" gun. In ''[[Call of Duty 2]]'' Corporal Bill Taylor must destroy this cannon, too.

===155 mm "Long Tom"===
The American variant of the GPF is mounted on a M40 Gun Motor Carriage on the map "''Aachen''". This is may be a reference to the fifteenth mission of "''Call of Duty: Finest Hour''" "Surrender at Aachen" where the M40 is seen forcing the Germans to surrender.

{{TV Title Season|8|Archer}}

Season 8 of Archer, now titled "Dreamland", takes place in 1947 in his head as he is in a coma. In this alternate universe, Archer is now a P.I. investigating the death of his partner (former servant) Woodhouse. All of the characters have new personalities and have been reintroduced to different roles, where Lana is now a singer at a bar, Pam is now a guy, and Malory, who goes by the name "Mother", is now the head of an mob organization that runs a jazz bar.
__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
Archer's traditional and iconic [[Walther PPK]] has been switched to the American Colt [[M1911A1]]. Unlike previous seasons, Archer's M1911 is blued steel instead of satin nickel. Close up shots reveal that Archer's sidearm is also worn-out and has scratch markings on it, which could mean this is the same .45 he was issued when he was in the Army. Of note, the animators properly show the weapon as a single action handgun only, which means the hammer must be cocked for the weapon to fire.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==
Sgt. Poovey and Det. Figgis' weapon of choice is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] revolver, specifically a "Military & Police" version, popular with Law Enforcement throughout the 20th Century.

==Smith & Wesson Model 15==
In "Berenice" (S8E2), Poovey's revolver he/she pulls out is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 15]], unlike the M&P Model 10 in the previous episode; note the rear adjustable sights and pointed front post. This is the same revolver Det. Dietrich used last season as well, although it's appearance is slightly anachronistic as the Model 15 wasn't produced until 1949.

==Luger P08==
In "Ladyfingers" (S8E4), a German SS Officer confronts Dr. Krieger with a [[Luger P08]] after finding out he was actually a university professor named Aaron Leibowitz, who was removed from his position for being Jewish.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928A1 Thompson==
Several of Len Trexlor's gang members are seen using [[M1928A1 Thompson]] submachine guns, identifiable by the Cutts compensator, top mounted charging handle, flip-up adjustable rear sights, and finned barrel. It makes sense for these versions of the Thompson to be seen in mobsters hands, as the later M1 and M1A1 would most likely still be in military inventory.

==MP40==
German soldiers in a couple of flashbacks are seen equipped with [[MP40]] submachine guns. This is the first time the MP40 is shown since [[Archer - Season 2]]. Since then, it was replaced by the more modern, but similarly German [[MP5]].

=Rifles=
==M1 Garand==
In a brief-PTSD like flashback in Episode 1, Archer and a US soldier next to him are seen climbing down into troop transport carriers with [[M1 Garand]] rifles slung over their backs, possibly during Operation Overlord.

In "Berenice" (S8E2), Poovey's revolver he/she pulls out is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 15]], unlike the M&P Model 10 in the previous episode; note the rear adjustable sights and pointed front post. This is the same revolver Det. Dietrich used last season as well, although it's appearance is slightly anachronistic as the Model 15 wasn't produced until 1949.

==Luger P08==
In "Ladyfingers" (S8E4), a German SS Officer confronts Dr. Krieger with a [[Luger P08]] after finding out he was actually a university professor named Aaron Leibowitz, who was removed from his position for being Jewish.

==M1928A1 Thompson==
Several of Len Trexlor's gang members are seen using [[M1928A1 Thompson]] submachine guns, identifiable by the Cutts compensator, top mounted charging handle, flip-up adjustable rear sights, and finned barrel. It makes sense for these versions of the Thompson to be seen in mobsters hands, as the later M1 and M1A1 would most likely still be in military inventory.

==MP40==
German soldiers in a couple of flashbacks are seen equipped with [[MP40]] submachine guns. This is the first time the MP40 is shown since [[Archer - Season 2]]. Since then, it was replaced by the more modern, but similarly German [[MP5]].

{{TV Title Season|8|Archer}}

Season 8 of Archer, now titled "Dreamland", takes place in 1947 in his head as he is in a coma. In this alternate universe, Archer is now a P.I. investigating the death of his partner (former servant) Woodhouse. All of the characters have new personalities and have been reintroduced to different roles, where Lana is now a singer at a bar, Pam is now a guy, and Malory, who goes by the name "Mother", is now the head of an mob organization that runs a jazz bar.
__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
Archer's traditional and iconic [[Walther PPK]] has been switched to the American Colt [[M1911A1]]. Unlike previous seasons, Archer's M1911 is blued steel instead of satin nickel. Close up shots reveal that Archer's sidearm is also worn-out and has scratch markings on it, which could mean this is the same .45 he was issued when he was in the Army. Of note, the animators properly show the weapon as a single action handgun only, which means the hammer must be cocked for the weapon to fire.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==
Sgt. Poovey's weapon of choice is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] revolver, specifically a "Military & Police" version, popular with Law Enforcement throughout the 20th Century.

In a brief PTSD-like flashback in Episode 1, Archer's mind goes back to when he was in hand to hand combat with a group of German soldiers, one of which was trying to restrain him with an [[MP40]] submachine gun. This is the first time the MP40 is shown since [[Archer - Season 2]]. Since then, it was replaced by the more modern, but similarly German [[MP5]].

==Smith & Wesson Model 15==
In "Berenice" (S8E2), Poovey's revolver he/she pulls out is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 15]], unlike the M&P Model 10 in the previous episode; note the rear adjustable sights and pointed front post. This is the same revolver Det. Dietrich used last season as well, although it's appearance is slightly anachronistic as the Model 15 wasn't produced until 1949.

==M1928A1 Thompson==
Several of Len Trexlor's gang members are seen using [[M1928A1 Thompson]] submachine guns, identifiable by the Cutts compensator, top mounted charging handle, flip-up adjustable rear sights, and finned barrel. It makes sense for these versions of the Thompson to be seen in mobsters hands, as the later M1 and M1A1 would most likely still be in military inventory.

==MP40==
In a brief PTSD-like flashback in Episode 1, Archer's mind goes back to when he was in hand to hand combat with a group of German soldiers, one of which was trying to restrain him with an [[MP40]] submachine gun. This is the first time the MP40 returns to the [[Archer (TV Series]] universe since Season 3, after it was replaced by the later [[MP5]].

{{TV Title Season|8|Archer}}

Season 8 of Archer, now titled "Dreamland", takes place in 1947 in his head as he is in a coma. In this alternate universe, Archer is now a P.I. investigating the death of his partner (former servant) Woodhouse. All of the characters have new personalities and have been reintroduced to different roles, where Lana is now a singer at a bar, Pam is now a guy, and Malory, who goes by the name "Mother", is now the head of an mob organization that runs a jazz bar.
__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt M1911A1==
Archer's traditional and iconic [[Walther PPK]] has been switched to the American Colt [[M1911A1]]. Unlike previous seasons, Archer's M1911 is blued steel instead of satin nickel. Close up shots reveal that Archer's sidearm is also worn-out and has scratch markings on it, which could mean this is the same .45 he was issued when he was in the Army. Of note, the animators properly show the weapon as a single action handgun only, which means the hammer must be cocked for the weapon to fire.
