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: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 correctly depict the gun 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.]] | |||

[[Image:CODV auto 1.jpg|thumb|none|601px|The Auto 5 in ''Warzone''. All sight options appear to add a rear sight or optical sight directly onto the barrel. While this was sometimes done in reality, particularly for use with slugs, this has been mounted too far to the rear to allow the barrel to recoil with the action as is proper for long-recoil shotguns.]] | |||
[[Image:CODV auto aiming.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Aiming down the sights.]] | |||
[[Image:CODV auto 3.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Reloading from empty - a shell is sent through the closed loading gate, then the bolt drops forward and somehow chambers it.

[[Image:CODV auto 6.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Removing the drum magazine without pressing a release of any sort - this drum is the same as the "Toggle Action" from ''[[Call of Duty: WWII#Walther Toggle-Action|WWII]]'', and it holds 10 shells. While not visible here, the ''Trommelmagazin 08''-style winding lever (which incorrectly never moves) is bugged, with one lever remaining on the drum while it's removed and an identical one floating below the shotgun.]] | |||
[[Image:CODV auto 7.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Getting a good look at the open ejection port, note the foregrip is now more visible.]] | |||

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). | |||
[[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.]] | |||

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. | |||
[[File:VanguardArisakabayonetglitchSolomonislands.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Lieutenant Wade Jackson holds an Arisaka rifle.

[[File:CODV Kar 5.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading with a round left in the rifle results in your player character covering the breech to stop the round from being ejected. When performing an empty reload, the player character still does this, which should realistically result in there being a spent case at the bottom of the magazine, burned fingertips, and only 4 live rounds being loaded into the rifle.]] | |||

[[File:CODV Mosin 6.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Dual-rendered scopes return from previous COD games, as Petrova aims at German soldiers.

[[File:Vanguardnuggetstalingrad1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Reloading while scoped in. The ''Modern Warfare'' placeholder reticle seen in the demo was changed to a proper "German #1" in the beta and for some reason was changed to an erroneous fine cross reticle in the final game.]] | |||
[[File:CodvanguardBETAnugget3p.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A strange visual glitch spotted during beta. While the third-person animations are very high quality, with features like the bolt dropping when shooting being depicted, the bolt assembly will magically hover when reloading. This could be an error due to the reload animation possibly being reused from the Kar98k in MW2019, and thus the position of the rifle body being in a slightly wrong location from the bolt and hands models.]] | |||

==Decoy Grenade== | |||
A seemingly-fictional device (possibly somewhat loosely inspired by the [[Jam Tin Grenade]]) known as the "Decoy Grenade" is available in multiplayer; as the name implies, it simulates the sound of gunfire, creating fake enemy pop-ups on enemy players' minimaps. | |||
[[File:Vanguard Decoy.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The "Decoy Grenade" in the multiplayer grenade selection menu.]] | |||
==Demolition Charge== | |||
A bundle of seven dynamite sticks bound together with tape appears as the "Demolition Charge", equipped in the same slot as lethal grenades/equipment. It functions similarly to the C4 charges from the series' more modern entries, right down to the somewhat anachronistic wireless remote detonation and inexplicable automatic adhesion to whatever surface they touch. | |||

[[File:CoDVanguard-G7etorpedo1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]] | |||
==Goliath Tracked Mine== | |||
Simply called the "Goliath", the German-designed Goliath tracked mine appears as a field upgrade in multiplayer, serving a similar role to the "RC-XD" from the ''Black Ops'' sub-series. Its in-game incarnation is a fair bit faster and less powerful than its real-world counterpart, and (as one would expect) is incorrectly shown as radio-controlled instead of the wire-based control system of the real mine; it also has a somewhat unrealistically low fuel supply, most likely for balance (as is the case with the rest of its less-than-realistic features). | |||
[[File:Vanguard Goliath.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Goliath field upgrade's artwork.]] | |||
==Knife-Crafters Throwing Knife== | |||

The late model (1941) '''Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II''' is called the "Spitfire Mk. 3 Reflector" and is seen being attached to an StG 44 in the Playstation Alpha trailer. In reality, the Mk II was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply. The crosshairs are absent in game and only the central dot is used akin to a modern red dot sight. It is also miniaturized to the size of a modern micro red dot sight which would have been impossible with the technology of the 1940s. | The [https://www.sarikhobbies.com/product/reflector-gunsight-mkii/ late model (1941)] '''Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II''' is called the "Spitfire Mk. 3 Reflector" and is seen being attached to an StG 44 in the Playstation Alpha trailer.

The '''Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk III''' | The '''Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk III''' also known as '''Mark III Free Mounted Gun Reflector Sight''' appears as the "Mk 3 Sunfilter". The "Mk 3 Mod. 2 Sunfilter" and "Mk 18 Sunfilter" are further fictionalized versions. All three versions use a stylized depiction of the real reticle. In reality, the Mk III was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply.

The ''' | The '''Bell & Howell Reflector Gun Sight Mk VIII''', a US modification of the British early model Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II, appears as the "Mustang Mk. 8 Reflector". In reality, the Mk VIII was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply. The crosshairs are absent in game and only the central dot is used akin to a modern red dot sight. It is also miniaturized to the size of a modern micro red dot sight which would have been impossible with the technology of the 1940s. | ||
===M47A2 Sherman sight=== | |||
The '''M47A2 Sherman sight''' appears as the "M38 5.0x Telescopic". The "M38/Slate 2.5x Custom" is the same optic with the aforementioned "Slate Reflector" mounted on top akin to a modern Leupold HAMR. The M47A2 was a gunsight commonly found among American 76mm-armed tanks and tank destroyers, and was never used in a handheld weapon configuration. Both depictions of the M47A2 depict it with much higher magnification than in real life (5.0x and 2.5x, versus the 1.44x of the real optic). | |||

Both are anachronistic, with the OKP-7 originating from the late 1990s or early 2000s and the Nydar from 1945. It has a further anachronistic Advanced Combined Sighting System (ACSS) style reticle. | ||
===NSP-2 Night Vision Scope=== | |||
The Soviet NSP-2 Night Vision Scope is featured as the "MK. 12 Night Vision". In the beta, it was incorrectly dubbed the ZG 1229 Vampir which is an entirely different German scope. It is anachronistic since the NSP-2 was [http://www.ak-info.ru/joomla/index.php/devices/9-optics/84-nsp2about introduced in 1956] in reality. | |||
=== | ===Nydar Model 47=== | ||
The '''Nydar Model 47''' sight is available under its real designation. It is depicted as being slightly smaller compared to the real thing probably to make it easier to fit to the various weapon models. The Nydar was introduced in 1945 so technically it is anachronistic for all segments of the game. Moreover, it was not a military device and as such it never saw combat action. The Nydar was intended as a sight for shotgun hunters, to aid in firing on flying birds, however, it didn't become popular. | |||

The '''Zeiss Glasvisier 16''' sight appears as the "Zeiss G16 2.5x". | |||

The '''ZF4''' scope is seen in the Alpha with an anachronistic and inaccurate | The '''ZF4''' scope is seen in the Alpha as the "ZF4 3.5x Rifle Scope" (in reality, it is a 4x scope not 3.5x). It is reusing the anachronistic and inaccurate PSO-like reticle from Modern Warfare's "VLK 3.0x Optic" instead of the proper "German #1" style reticle. | ||
==Foregrips== | |||
===Thompson foregrip=== | |||
The Thompson foregrip is available as the '''"M1093 Madsen"''' grip, which is a very unusual name, as the Thompson grip as it appears in-game first appeared on an early "Annihilator" prototype from 1919, and the [[Madsen machine gun]] has nothing to do with the Thompson, nor does it have a foregrip. | |||
==="M1941 Handstop"=== | |||
A custom handstop style foregrip is featured in the alpha. While makeshift vertical foregrips were used in WWII, the handstop design is heavily anachronistic as these were first conceived in the 2000s or 2010s. | |||
==="Mk6 Para"=== | |||
A custom angled style foregrip is featured in the alpha. While makeshift vertical foregrips were used in WWII, the angled design is heavily anachronistic as these were first conceived in the 2000s or 2010s. | |||
==Stocks== | |||
===AKS-74 Folding Stock=== | |||
An anachronistic [[AKS-74]] folding stock is available as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment for the Type 100. | |||
===H&K PSG-1/StG 44 Stock Hybrid=== | |||
The "VDD 34S Weighted" stock for the StG 44 has the shape of an H&K [[PSG-1]] but is made of wood instead of plastic and has an StG 44 stock sling attachment point. The PSG-1 design is heavily anachronistic, as the PSG-1 was produced in 1972. | |||
===Rexim-Favor Mk 5 stock=== | |||
The stock from the [[Rexim-Favor]] Mk 5 appears on some guns in the game, notably the MP40. It is anachronistic, along with the gun itself, by 10 years. | |||
===Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44 Folding Stock=== | |||
A folding stock from the BD-44, a modern replica of the StG 44 made by Sport-Systeme Dittrich, is featured as the "Krausnick S11S Folding". The folding stock StG 44 replica itself is allegedly [https://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=159913 based on an experimental variant developed for tank crews near the end of WW2]. | |||
==Magazines== | |||
===Beta-C Magazine=== | |||
A fictional double-drum magazine resembling the ''Beta-C'' is available for the Volksturmgewehr and Fedorov Avtomat. The design is anachronistic as the Beta-C was first developed in 1987. | |||
===Gurttrommel 34=== | |||
The extended magazine for the Sturmgewhr 44 is a modified Gurttrommel 34 drum originally designed for the MG34/42 machine guns. A similar design appeared in Raven and id Software's [[Wolfenstein]], which also happens to be published by Activision. | |||
===MG3 Box Magazine=== | |||
The anachronistic MG3 Box Magazine is featured as an extended magazine attachment for the MG42. | |||
===Trommelmagazin 08=== | |||
A magazine based on the ''Trommelmagazin 08'' is available as an extended magazine attachment for the MP40, Sten, Type 100 and the Luger. However, the TM08 is not compatible with the MP40, Sten and Type 100 in reality, and it holds only 32 rounds, no more than the default magazine capacities for the former two SMGs. | |||
===Monarch Arms .45 ACP Extended Magazine=== | |||
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 Company in the 20s and 30s is available as the ".45 ACP 18 Round Mags". The in game depiction provides 18 rounds in total which accurately reflects the real thing's 18 or 22 round capacity. | |||
==Muzzle== | |||
===Cutts Compensator=== | |||
The Cutts Compensator is available as the "Strife Compensator" muzzle attachment. | |||
===FG42 Muzzle=== | |||
The muzzle of the [[FG42]] appears as the "T1 Flash Hider". | |||
===LAD Muzzle=== | |||
The muzzle of the [[LAD machine gun]] appears as the "Scythe Compensator". | |||
===M9 Flash Hider=== | |||
The M9 Flash Hider for the [[M3 Grease Gun]] is available under its correct name. | |||
===Maxim Suppressor=== | |||
The Maxim Suppressor appears with slight visual differences as the "MX Suppressor". | |||
===MG42 Post-1943 Muzzle Brake=== | |||
A special post-1943 muzzle brake for the [[MG42]], shown in the book ''Tactical and Technical Trends'', No. 57, April 1945, appears as the "F8 Stabilizer" muzzle attachment. It is depicted as being smaller than the real thing and is erroneously compatible with all the weapons. | |||
==="Recoil Booster"=== | |||
The "Recoil Booster" muzzle attachment appears to be a generic perforated muzzle or recoil booster muzzle, with a conical shape. It is most similar to the [[MG81]] muzzle device in appearance, albeit shorter. | |||
==Others== | |||
===MX-993/U Flashlight=== | |||
The MX-993/U flashlight appears as the "GF-59 Flashlight". The MX-993/U itself appears to be period appropriate, however, it is mounted onto the barrel via a barrel clamp. This is heavily anachronistic as the practice of mounting flashlights onto the barrel appears to have originated in the early 90s when barrel mounted SureFire flashlights were utilized by Delta operators during the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993. | |||
===3rd Pattern M1884/98 Bayonet=== | |||
The German 3rd Pattern M1884/98 bayonet is used as the "Bayonet" attachment for the Volkssturmgewehr and PTRS-41. However, this is inaccurate as these weapons didn't have a bayonet lug and couldn't accept a bayonet. | |||
===Unidentified Spike Bayonet=== | |||
An unknown spike bayonet is used as the "Bayonet" attachment for most weapons. | |||

==Multiplayer anachronisms== | |||
I think it is important to point out anachronisms both in single player and multiplayer otherwise people might be like ''"But hey look they have the StG44 in Stalingrad in CODs multiplayer so it must be correct."'' As for why I use "potential" and "would be" when referring to multiplayer anachronisms, that is because as you said due to the lack of equipment restrictions in MP the anachronistic use of a weapon is a potentiality depending on the players. If a player chooses to bring an StG44 to a multiplayer Stalingrad map then in that case the weapon would be anachronism, if they don't bring it then there is no anachronism, that's why I use "would be". The anachronism is player-determined. Of course we can also just say something like ''"It can be anachronistically used in the multiplayer maps X."'' --[[User:Nanomat|Nanomat]] ([[User talk:Nanomat|talk]]) 08:28, 8 September 2021 (EDT) | |||
:I think it is worth mentioning in story/campaign modes but a bit pedantic to state "its use on (list of 10+ maps) is anachronistic" for every later war weapon.

I've been putting this off for a while now, and I'm not sure when I'll be able to properly add these shots to the page (especially since I'd have to ask/figure out what all the planes are and what guns are on them), so I'm just gonna put them here for now so nobody wastes their time getting duplicates. And hey, if someone decides to put them up themselves before I get a chance to, they won't hear any complaints from me. | |||

:If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say that it's a heavily modified LMG 08/15 (modified in a similar way to the Vickers/"Deathmachine", in fact), but it's hard to say given that exactly one half-decent image of it appears to exist anywhere (sidenote - that image link doesn't seem to work).

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.

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 weapon can be modified to use the 7.7x58mm ammunition of the real 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.

Miscellaneous
3rd Pattern Fairbairn Sykes
The 3rd Pattern Fairbairn Sykes knife appears as the "FS Fighting Knife".
AN-M64 GP500 Bomb
The American AN-M64 GP500 Bomb is seen and used in "The Battle of Midway" single-player campaign mission.
Arisaka Type 30 Bayonet
Despite the German S84/98 being the standard used bayonet for the Japanese rifles, the Type 30 Bayonet is seen on Japanese soldiers' uniforms.
Decoy Grenade
A seemingly-fictional device (possibly somewhat loosely inspired by the Jam Tin Grenade) known as the "Decoy Grenade" is available in multiplayer; as the name implies, it simulates the sound of gunfire, creating fake enemy pop-ups on enemy players' minimaps.
Demolition Charge
A bundle of seven dynamite sticks bound together with tape appears as the "Demolition Charge", equipped in the same slot as lethal grenades/equipment. It functions similarly to the C4 charges from the series' more modern entries, right down to the somewhat anachronistic wireless remote detonation and inexplicable automatic adhesion to whatever surface they touch.
Fritz X Glide Bomb
The German Fritz X glide bomb is featured as the "Glide Bomb" killstreak like in Call of Duty: WWII.
G7e torpedo
Several German G7e torpedos are seen during the single-player campaign mission and on some multiplayer maps.
Goliath Tracked Mine
Simply called the "Goliath", the German-designed Goliath tracked mine appears as a field upgrade in multiplayer, serving a similar role to the "RC-XD" from the Black Ops sub-series. Its in-game incarnation is a fair bit faster and less powerful than its real-world counterpart, and (as one would expect) is incorrectly shown as radio-controlled instead of the wire-based control system of the real mine; it also has a somewhat unrealistically low fuel supply, most likely for balance (as is the case with the rest of its less-than-realistic features).
Knife-Crafters Throwing Knife
The Knife-Crafters throwing knife appears in the Alpha as the "Throwing Knife".
SC 500 bomb
A German SC 500 bomb is seen in the first single-player Stalingrad mission.
SC 50 bomb
German SC 50 bombs are inaccurately delivered by the B-17 bomber with the "Bombing Run" killstreak.
Shin guntō
Some Japanese officers use Shin guntō swords in the single-player campaign.
Attachments
Sights
4-Power NTC Kogaku Scope
The 4-Power NTC Kogaku scope is seen in the Alpha as the "Type 99 Mod. 2 7x Telescopic" (in reality, it is a 4x scope not 2.7x). It can be attached to the Mosin Nagant.
Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II
The late model (1941) Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II is called the "Spitfire Mk. 3 Reflector" and is seen being attached to an StG 44 in the Playstation Alpha trailer. In reality, the Mk II was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply. The crosshairs are absent in game and only the central dot is used akin to a modern red dot sight. It is also miniaturized to the size of a modern micro red dot sight which would have been impossible with the technology of the 1940s.
Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk III
The Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk III also known as Mark III Free Mounted Gun Reflector Sight appears as the "Mk 3 Sunfilter". The "Mk 3 Mod. 2 Sunfilter" and "Mk 18 Sunfilter" are further fictionalized versions. All three versions use a stylized depiction of the real reticle. In reality, the Mk III was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply. It is also miniaturized to the size of a modern holographic sight which would have been impossible with the technology of the 1940s.
Bell & Howell Reflector Gun Sight Mk VIII
The Bell & Howell Reflector Gun Sight Mk VIII, a US modification of the British early model Barr & Stroud Reflector Gun Sight Mk II, appears as the "Mustang Mk. 8 Reflector". In reality, the Mk VIII was an aircraft sight and its usage in a handheld weapon configuration is impossible due to the bulk and its need for an external power supply. The crosshairs are absent in game and only the central dot is used akin to a modern red dot sight. It is also miniaturized to the size of a modern micro red dot sight which would have been impossible with the technology of the 1940s.
M47A2 Sherman sight
The M47A2 Sherman sight appears as the "M38 5.0x Telescopic". The "M38/Slate 2.5x Custom" is the same optic with the aforementioned "Slate Reflector" mounted on top akin to a modern Leupold HAMR. The M47A2 was a gunsight commonly found among American 76mm-armed tanks and tank destroyers, and was never used in a handheld weapon configuration. Both depictions of the M47A2 depict it with much higher magnification than in real life (5.0x and 2.5x, versus the 1.44x of the real optic).
"Monocular Reflector"
The "Monocular Reflector" appears to be a hybrid of the Nydar Model 47 Sight and the OKP-7 reflex sight. Both are anachronistic, with the OKP-7 originating from the late 1990s or early 2000s and the Nydar from 1945. It has a further anachronistic Advanced Combined Sighting System (ACSS) style reticle.
NSP-2 Night Vision Scope
The Soviet NSP-2 Night Vision Scope is featured as the "MK. 12 Night Vision". In the beta, it was incorrectly dubbed the ZG 1229 Vampir which is an entirely different German scope. It is anachronistic since the NSP-2 was introduced in 1956 in reality.
Nydar Model 47
The Nydar Model 47 sight is available under its real designation. It is depicted as being slightly smaller compared to the real thing probably to make it easier to fit to the various weapon models. The Nydar was introduced in 1945 so technically it is anachronistic for all segments of the game. Moreover, it was not a military device and as such it never saw combat action. The Nydar was intended as a sight for shotgun hunters, to aid in firing on flying birds, however, it didn't become popular.
"Slate Reflector"
The "Slate Reflector" bears some similarity to the "G.I. Mini Reflex" sight from Modern Warfare.
Warner & Swasey M1908 Musket Sight
The Warner & Swasey M1908 Musket Sight is available as the "M1913 Variable 4-8x".
Zeiss Glasvisier 16
The Zeiss Glasvisier 16 sight appears as the "Zeiss G16 2.5x".
ZF4 Scope
The ZF4 scope is seen in the Alpha as the "ZF4 3.5x Rifle Scope" (in reality, it is a 4x scope not 3.5x). It is reusing the anachronistic and inaccurate PSO-like reticle from Modern Warfare's "VLK 3.0x Optic" instead of the proper "German #1" style reticle.
Foregrips
Thompson foregrip
The Thompson foregrip is available as the "M1093 Madsen" grip, which is a very unusual name, as the Thompson grip as it appears in-game first appeared on an early "Annihilator" prototype from 1919, and the Madsen machine gun has nothing to do with the Thompson, nor does it have a foregrip.
"M1941 Handstop"
A custom handstop style foregrip is featured in the alpha. While makeshift vertical foregrips were used in WWII, the handstop design is heavily anachronistic as these were first conceived in the 2000s or 2010s.
"Mk6 Para"
A custom angled style foregrip is featured in the alpha. While makeshift vertical foregrips were used in WWII, the angled design is heavily anachronistic as these were first conceived in the 2000s or 2010s.
Stocks
AKS-74 Folding Stock
An anachronistic AKS-74 folding stock is available as the "Warubachi Skeletal" stock attachment for the Type 100.
H&K PSG-1/StG 44 Stock Hybrid
The "VDD 34S Weighted" stock for the StG 44 has the shape of an H&K PSG-1 but is made of wood instead of plastic and has an StG 44 stock sling attachment point. The PSG-1 design is heavily anachronistic, as the PSG-1 was produced in 1972.
Rexim-Favor Mk 5 stock
The stock from the Rexim-Favor Mk 5 appears on some guns in the game, notably the MP40. It is anachronistic, along with the gun itself, by 10 years.
Sport-Systeme Dittrich BD-44 Folding Stock
A folding stock from the BD-44, a modern replica of the StG 44 made by Sport-Systeme Dittrich, is featured as the "Krausnick S11S Folding". The folding stock StG 44 replica itself is allegedly based on an experimental variant developed for tank crews near the end of WW2.
Magazines
Beta-C Magazine
A fictional double-drum magazine resembling the Beta-C is available for the Volksturmgewehr and Fedorov Avtomat. The design is anachronistic as the Beta-C was first developed in 1987.
Gurttrommel 34
The extended magazine for the Sturmgewhr 44 is a modified Gurttrommel 34 drum originally designed for the MG34/42 machine guns. A similar design appeared in Raven and id Software's Wolfenstein, which also happens to be published by Activision.
MG3 Box Magazine
The anachronistic MG3 Box Magazine is featured as an extended magazine attachment for the MG42.
Trommelmagazin 08
A magazine based on the Trommelmagazin 08 is available as an extended magazine attachment for the MP40, Sten, Type 100 and the Luger. However, the TM08 is not compatible with the MP40, Sten and Type 100 in reality, and it holds only 32 rounds, no more than the default magazine capacities for the former two SMGs.
Monarch Arms .45 ACP Extended Magazine
The .45 ACP extended magazine made by Monarch Arms & Manufacturing Sales Company in the 20s and 30s is available as the ".45 ACP 18 Round Mags". The in game depiction provides 18 rounds in total which accurately reflects the real thing's 18 or 22 round capacity.
Muzzle
Cutts Compensator
The Cutts Compensator is available as the "Strife Compensator" muzzle attachment.
FG42 Muzzle
The muzzle of the FG42 appears as the "T1 Flash Hider".
LAD Muzzle
The muzzle of the LAD machine gun appears as the "Scythe Compensator".
M9 Flash Hider
The M9 Flash Hider for the M3 Grease Gun is available under its correct name.
Maxim Suppressor
The Maxim Suppressor appears with slight visual differences as the "MX Suppressor".
MG42 Post-1943 Muzzle Brake
A special post-1943 muzzle brake for the MG42, shown in the book Tactical and Technical Trends, No. 57, April 1945, appears as the "F8 Stabilizer" muzzle attachment. It is depicted as being smaller than the real thing and is erroneously compatible with all the weapons.
"Recoil Booster"
The "Recoil Booster" muzzle attachment appears to be a generic perforated muzzle or recoil booster muzzle, with a conical shape. It is most similar to the MG81 muzzle device in appearance, albeit shorter.
Others
MX-993/U Flashlight
The MX-993/U flashlight appears as the "GF-59 Flashlight". The MX-993/U itself appears to be period appropriate, however, it is mounted onto the barrel via a barrel clamp. This is heavily anachronistic as the practice of mounting flashlights onto the barrel appears to have originated in the early 90s when barrel mounted SureFire flashlights were utilized by Delta operators during the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993.
3rd Pattern M1884/98 Bayonet
The German 3rd Pattern M1884/98 bayonet is used as the "Bayonet" attachment for the Volkssturmgewehr and PTRS-41. However, this is inaccurate as these weapons didn't have a bayonet lug and couldn't accept a bayonet.
Unidentified Spike Bayonet
An unknown spike bayonet is used as the "Bayonet" attachment for most weapons.
Discussion
Call of Duty Vanguard aka COD WWII 2: Pacific Boogaloo
Note, images and info are from leaks, so nothing's final..yet. Reveal trailer will be coming real soon, will move to main page when that does.
- Top image has (right to left) a Mosin with a PU scope, a Type 100, a Lee-Enfield No. 4 (and what looks like a holstered M1911, or something of the sort), and a Sten Mk. II. With a drum mag. Again. Hooray...
- Also, those promo guns look, for lack of a better word, horrible. I mean, really? A hybrid Mk. I/V Sten with a suppressor and one of those aircraft MG reflex sights? A longer-barreled MP41 with a tiny scope, a muzzle brake, and a Thompson foregrip? Plus a hilariously gaudy-looking PPSh, a screwed-up shorty Sturmgewehr with what looks like a ~20 round straight mag and a vertical foregrip, a cut-down Type 100 with a handstop(?), and what I can only assume is supposed to be a Mosin (based purely on context and the scope, since practically no feature of the actual rifle looks like a Mosin). I was hoping that they'd've learned their lessons from COD:WWII, but it seems they've instead doubled down on everything wrong with that game's aesthetics, plus everything wrong with BOCW's for good measure. Just... why?

- This PPSh looks like a water toygun, LOLest. --Slon95 (talk) 12:29, 14 August 2021 (EDT)
- Thank the lord its a Cold War blueprint, not a Vanguard blueprint. It was at the end of the trailer for Vanguard. --JackalUnderscore (talk) 14:05, 19 August 2021 (EDT)
- This PPSh looks like a water toygun, LOLest. --Slon95 (talk) 12:29, 14 August 2021 (EDT)
Page Up
With the release of an official teaser trailer, I think its safe to make the page now, so I did and added the guns and grenades from the teaser. Hope nobody minds, seeing as the full reveal and first proper trailer is on the 19th. --JackalUnderscore (talk) 15:50, 16 August 2021 (EDT)
Weapon Wishlist
A small list of desired weapons besides the expected usual chestnuts, including the ones that weren’t in the previous game:
- Pistols: Browning Hi-Power, Walther PPK, Welrod, Webley revolver
- SMGs: Owen Gun, United Defense M42, Suomi KP/-31, Nambu Type I, Bergmann MP35, Beretta M1918, Spasov M1944 Trigun (3-barrelled SMG)
- Shotguns: Browning Auto-5, Winchester Model 1887
- Rifles: M1941 Johnson rifle, ZH-29, Carcano, Winchester Model 1895, MAS-44, Burton 1917 LMR, Ribeyrolles 1918 Automatic Carbine, double-barrelled hunting rifle (for fun)
- LMGs: DP-28, Type 99 Light Machine Gun, Vickers Gas Operated, MAC mle 1931 machine gun, Maxim-Tokarev
- Launchers: Sturmpistole, Type 89 grenade launcher, PIAT
- Others: OSS glove pistol, one of those Joe crossbows, throwing knives
Also, a few ideas for scorestreaks that are basically WWII counterparts of the ones in BOCW:
- Hand Cannon: Smith & Wesson Model 27. One-hit kill to infantry and high damage to other scorestreaks. Maybe make it ivory-gripped as like General Patton’s gun.
- War Machine: Kulakov Grenade Launcher. Holds only 5 grenades but otherwise still powerful.
- Death Machine: Hard to say, given the M134 Minigun was developed in the 60s. The closest I can come up with for WWII is a Slostin machine gun, but that is mounted on a carriage and not man-portable at all. The next best thing could be a twin MG81 setup since it is kind of man-portable and has an extremely high fire rate, and after that maybe the M1919 AN/M2 Stinger from CoD:WWII. Or a big water-cooled MG like the Maxim or Browning M1917.
Most of this is a pipe dream knowing Sledge and Acti but they did add some weapons like the Charlton Automatic Rifle in CoD:WWII so who knows. Feel free to add to the list if you want. --MJ79 (talk) 22:01, 17 August 2021 (EDT)
- I don't know half the things on this list. What's the Trigun and the Slostin? --JackalUnderscore (talk) 13:48, 19 August 2021 (EDT)
Links on those two guns are down below: https://guns.fandom.com/wiki/Spasov_M1944_Trigun https://guns.fandom.com/wiki/Slostin_machine_gun --MJ79 (talk) 10:44, 21 August 2021 (EDT)
Trailer Dropped
This is a pretty epic trailer, not looking bad at all. There must be at least one multiplayer WWII game on all 4 major fronts, but I haven't heard of any. Looks pretty darn good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQ1CwPhE8KQ --JackalUnderscore (talk) 14:07, 19 August 2021 (EDT)
Something funny
Finishing moves use Modern Warfare's P320 as a placeholder in the current Alpha build lol. [1] --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:31, 27 August 2021 (EDT)
- There are definitely some odd placeholders in the current build - the Thompson is apparently chambered in 5.7x28mm, for one. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 18:17, 27 August 2021 (EDT)
The BAR apparently uses 7.62 NATO. I guess to be expected but you seem to be able to use the Arisaka Kogaku scope and side mounted on other bolt actions so you can reload with stripper clips. Really strange seeing it on a Mosin. --Kona (talk) 03:05, 28 August 2021 (EDT)
- Actually, I've just noticed a placeholder that seemingly made it into the final game: while the regular smoke grenade is an accurate-looking yellow M18 (that still releases gray smoke for some reason), the white-topped M18 with the weird ridges from MW19 is used to call in some of the killstreaks. Probably worth pointing out. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 21:10, 7 December 2021 (EST)
Multiplayer anachronisms
I think it is important to point out anachronisms both in single player and multiplayer otherwise people might be like "But hey look they have the StG44 in Stalingrad in CODs multiplayer so it must be correct." As for why I use "potential" and "would be" when referring to multiplayer anachronisms, that is because as you said due to the lack of equipment restrictions in MP the anachronistic use of a weapon is a potentiality depending on the players. If a player chooses to bring an StG44 to a multiplayer Stalingrad map then in that case the weapon would be anachronism, if they don't bring it then there is no anachronism, that's why I use "would be". The anachronism is player-determined. Of course we can also just say something like "It can be anachronistically used in the multiplayer maps X." --Nanomat (talk) 08:28, 8 September 2021 (EDT)
- I think it is worth mentioning in story/campaign modes but a bit pedantic to state "its use on (list of 10+ maps) is anachronistic" for every later war weapon. See the discussion we had on BFV's talk page - best to just note major anachronisms.--AgentGumby (talk) 10:32, 8 September 2021 (EDT)

Screencap storage
I've been putting this off for a while now, and I'm not sure when I'll be able to properly add these shots to the page (especially since I'd have to ask/figure out what all the planes are and what guns are on them), so I'm just gonna put them here for now so nobody wastes their time getting duplicates. And hey, if someone decides to put them up themselves before I get a chance to, they won't hear any complaints from me.
And yes, I remember being told what at least some of these planes are in the Discord, but I've forgotten already, and more to the point I still need time. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 21:17, 7 December 2021 (EST)
Sturmkrieger weapon ID
Can anyone ID the machine gun used by the Sturmkrieger enemies in Zombies mode?
- If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say that it's a heavily modified LMG 08/15 (modified in a similar way to the Vickers/"Deathmachine", in fact), but it's hard to say given that exactly one half-decent image of it appears to exist anywhere (sidenote - that image link doesn't seem to work). Also, don't forget to sign your posts by typing "~~~~" (without the nowiki tags) at the end. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 11:38, 22 December 2021 (EST)
- Yeah, that link is broken but it's easy to find on the wiki. It looks like Black Ops' Death Machine receiver with, as Pyro said, a stylized LMG 08/15 barrel/shroud with air-cooling style cutouts.--AgentGumby (talk) 11:58, 22 December 2021 (EST)
- Sorry, I forgot that wikia doesn't like direct image linking. Reuploaded it to imgur. --Tamarin88 (talk) 16:17, 22 December 2021 (EST)
- That thing has the barrel/jacket assembly of the "Zweihänder" from Black Ops 4 Zombies. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 17:25, 11 April 2022 (EDT)

Season Five
I fucking give up with this game. But that's okay, 'cause it seems Sledgehammer has, too.
So stuff for the final season dropped and...yeah it's pretty clear that they just gave up and started shilling for Modern Warfare 2-2. Or, Activision forced them to, most likely. Anyway, let's ID some of these. Apart from the EM1 'cause...yeah. Only the revolver and the SMG have anything to do with the time period this game is supposed to be set in, so any help IDing everything outside the F2000 would be helpful, thank you. --Pez-Dispenser (talk) 11:45, 19 August 2022 (EDT)
- The "Valois" is already on the page; the "RA 225" is an Sa 25, the "Lienna 57" is a weirdly-stylized Stgw 57, Rorke has what looks like some sort of modernized AK variant, the EM-1 is nonsense, and the F2000 doesn't have enough space in the stock for the bolt. They just stopped caring at some point, I guess. Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 12:40, 19 August 2022 (EDT)
- These updates are really just content drops for Warzone. According to Wikipedia, the live service story is in the 70s now, so Vanguard's original WWII setting isn't really relevant now. Also, easy on the language there.--AgentGumby (talk) 13:14, 19 August 2022 (EDT)
- That image of Rorke is reused from Call of Duty: Mobile, and what he's holding here is the "AK117" from that game lmao (a modified AK-102). --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 12:41, 22 August 2022 (EDT)
- Tbh it was pretty evident from the start that they didn't want to make a WW2 game. Rorke was also a huge missed opportunity to show off some of the more interesting kit that the Federation had, but nah they gave him a plate carrier with belt straps for a harness (???) and fake Factory Pilot gloves lol. Big sad. Fine cuisine (talk) 16:00, 23 August 2022 (EDT)
- Speaking of Federation Kit, do you have any idea what gloves they wear in Ghosts (when not wearing the oakley-esque style)?--AgentGumby (talk) 16:23, 30 August 2022 (EDT)
- In the 1st person screens they wear what seems like Strongsuit SWAT tac and Damascus D90X. --Nanomat (talk) 16:40, 30 August 2022 (EDT)
