Phantom Forces is a multiplayer first-person shooter developed by StyLiS Studios. The game, which is available on the Roblox platform, was first made available on June 2nd, 2015 for consoles and August 31st, 2015 for PC. It is a modern shooter heavily inspired by the Battlefield franchise, specifically 3 and 4, with some of the maps and weapons of 4 and the heads-up display of 3 making a near-identical appearance in Phantom Forces. The 4-class system of the Battlefield games is also present, but without the unique gadgets and abilities of those classes.

Phantom Forces sets itself apart with an extremely diverse selection of over 180 firearms ranging from black powder revolvers to the most modern military rifles. Each and every weapon may also be extensively modified to suit a player's needs, with available attachments including optical sights, suppressors, foregrips, extended magazines, caliber conversions, alternate ammunition, and lengthened/shortened barrels.

The following weapons appear in the video game Phantom Forces:

Overview

There are 4 classes in Phantom Forces, which, due to the lack of Battlefield-inspired gadgets, differ only by the types of primary weapons that they have access to. The first class, Assault, can equip Assault Rifles, Carbines, Battle Rifles, and Shotguns. Support, the second class, has similar weapon offerings, except they use Light Machine Guns instead of Assault Rifles. The Scout class has access to Personal Defense Weapons, Carbines, Shotguns and Designated Marksman Rifles. The final class, Recon, has access to Sniper Rifles, DMRs, Battle Rifles, and Carbines.

Each class can equip one primary weapon, one secondary weapon, one grenade, and one melee weapon. Primary weapons are split into several categories, which are Assault Rifles, Battle Rifles, Carbines, DMRs (intermediate and full-power semi-automatic rifles), LMGs (and GPMGs), PDWs (submachine guns and a few carbines), Shotguns, and Sniper Rifles. Secondary weapons, which are shared across all classes, are categorized into Pistols, Revolvers, Machine Pistols, and a catch-all "Other" category. Grenades are divided among three categories, those being Fragmentation, High Explosive, and Impact. Weapons can be unlocked by increasing one's personal "rank", which is done by gathering XP awarded by eliminating other players or completing objectives, or pre-bought with Credits, an in-game currency that is acquired by ranking up, selling in-game skins, or spending real money.

Every gun in the game can be modified in the loadout menu to add (or remove) various parts, which are unlocked on a per-weapon basis by accumulating kills or spending credits. Most weapons can use one "optic" attachment (includes iron sights, holographic sights, and scopes), one "barrel" attachment (suppressors, muzzle devices, changing barrel length, shotgun chokes), one "underbarrel" attachment (grips, flashlights, lasers), one "other" attachment (side-mounted lasers and flashlights, alternate/remove stocks, extended magazines, canted sights), and one "ammo" attachment (hollow point, armor piercing, overpressure, slugs, flechette, conversions). Although many attachments are available to all weapons (with some exceptions), many guns feature modifications that are unique to that weapon or weapon class. Some unique modifications change the weapon in such a way that it becomes another firearm entirely; for example, the Kel-Tec KSG has access to the unique "KSG-25 barrel" modification, which transforms the shotgun into the KSG-25 both functionally, by extending its barrel and magazine tubes, and literally, by changing the weapon's name to "KSG-25" in the loadout menu and killfeed. This will be taken into account when considering if a weapon appears in Phantom Forces.

Pistols

Pistols in Phantom Forces are split between automatic pistols (and some single-shot pistols) and machine pistols. They can be equipped in the secondary slot and are available to all classes.

AMT Automag III

The AMT Automag III was added in April 2022 as part of update 5.7.0 (Return to Spring Update) and is unlocked at rank 109. Chambered in .30 Carbine, it has a very high base damage (68 at point blank) and good torso/headshot multiplier at the cost of a low magazine capacity (8+1) and very high recoil. The Automag III features two unique modifications, those being a .45 Winchester Magnum conversion and .50 Action Express conversion, which convert the pistol into the Automag IV and Automag V respectively.

 '''''Phantom Forces''''' is a multiplayer first-person shooter developed by StyLiS Studios. The game, which is available on the Roblox platform, was first made available on June 2nd, 2015 for consoles and  August 31st, 2015 for PC. It is a modern shooter heavily inspired by the ''[[Battlefield]]'' franchise, specifically ''[[Battlefield 3|3]]'' and ''[[Battlefield 4|4]]'', with some of the maps and weapons of ''4'' and the heads-up display of ''3'' making a near-identical appearance in ''Phantom Forces''. The 4-class system of the ''Battlefield'' games is also present, but without the unique gadgets and abilities of those classes.

Each and every weapon may also be extensively modified to suit a player's needs, with available attachments including optical sights, suppressors, foregrips, extended magazines, caliber conversions, alternate ammunition, and lengthened/shortened barrels.

 Equipping the ".45 WinMag" ammo conversion mod for the Automag III transforms it into the [[AMT Automag IV]]. This allows the pistol to fire much faster and increases the maximum total ammo the player can carry, but reduces its damage and headshot multiplier.

 Equipping the ".50 AE" ammo conversion mod for the Automag III transforms it into the [[AMT Automag V]]. This vastly increases its damage, allowing for a one-shot kill to the body at close range. The Automag V's immense firepower is offset by its reduced magazine capacity of just 5 rounds, however, and its heavy recoil makes quick follow-up shots very difficult (not that one is needed, if you're using it correctly).

 The AMT Javelina Longslide, a variant of the 1911-pattern [[AMT Hardballer]] chambered in 10mm Auto and with an extended barrel, was added in April 2022 as part of update 5.7.0 (Return to Spring Update) and is unlocked at rank 84. The pistol is known as the "Hardballer" in-game and is capable of dealing above-average damage per shot, with its main strength being its ability to three-shot an enemy player to any part of the body at any range. This long-ranged power is counterbalanced by a low magazine size of only 8+1 rounds, mediocre close-range performance, and somewhat high vertical recoil. The Javelina Longslide has access to the "Short Barrel" mod, which shortens the handgun's barrel and slide to that of a standard 1911, and a US Marine Corps. folding shoulder stock. The Javelina is also unique in that it is the only firearm in the game to lack a kill requirement for the fictional "AMT Terminator" optic, which, along with the weapon's in-game description, is an obvious reference to 1984's ''[[The Terminator]]''.

 The [[Arsenal Firearms AF2011-A1]] was added in April 2022 as part of update 5.7.0 (Return to Spring Update) and is unlocked at rank 201. Holding the (dubious) honor of being the secondary weapon with the highest unlock rank in the game, the AF2011-A1 was the first double-barreled non-shotgun firearm added to ''Phantom Forces.'' It features very high damage at close range (due to it firing two .45 ACP rounds per trigger-pull), high recoil, a low magazine size, and a long reload. Unique modifications for the AF2011-A1 include a Monarch Arms "Rifle-ette" stock and a ".45 Super" ammo conversion which significantly improves penetration and muzzle velocity at the expense of long-range damage and recoil.

 ==AWS 1911==
-The [[AWS 1911]] was added on Christmas 2018 as part of update 4.0.0 (2018 Winter Update 1) as the "MP1911" and is unlocked at rank 106. The version depicted in-game is select-fire and feeds from double-stack magazines, meaning that it is based on the later "AWS Model-2" prototypes. It comes pre-equipped with the shoulder stock from the Colt 1911 machine pistol prototype. The AWS 1911 is classified as a machine pistol and fires .45 ACP at an astounding 1000 RPM in full-auto, offering a potent close-range self-defense tool for a player in a pinch, featuring high damage and is among the most controllable machine pistols due to its foregrip and stock. Its 15-round magazine, however, is one of the smallest in its class. It can be modified to remove its pre-fitted stock and shorten the barrel, which increases the weapon's responsiveness in CQC at the expense of worse recoil and range. The AWS 1911 also features a 9x19mm conversion which increases its magazine size (20 > 15 rounds) and firerate (1300 > 1000 RPM) while decreasing its damage.

 A [[Beretta 93R]] with wood grips was added during the game's Alpha and is unlocked at rank 26. It feeds from a 20 round magazine, is classified as a machine pistol, and is the only secondary weapon in the game to feature a burst-fire. The 93R is capable of killing a full-health player with one three-round burst at close range, but its high vertical recoil can make the weapon hard to use effectively beyond close range. The machine pistol can also be fired sem-automatically, which can also be useful when single, more accurate shots are desired. The Beretta 93R's only unique modification is a recoil-decreasing shoulder stock known as the "Raffica Stock".

 A two-toned [[Colt M1911A1]] was added during the game's Alpha and is unlocked at rank 8. The pistol is seemingly a custom model as it has an 8-round magazine, wooden grips embossed with a golden StyLiS logo, full-length guide rod, a M1911-style main spring housing, and an oversized hammer. The M1911A1 is accurate, quick to reload, and has impressive stopping power, making it a deadly sidearm at any range. At the same time, the classic handgun's jumpy recoil, low muzzle velocity, and low magazine size heavily discourage firing too quickly. The M1911A1 can be equipped with a folding shoulder stock to aid in recoil management and has access to a unique cosmetic "Engravings" attachment.

 ===M1911 .22 LR===
 Equipping the M1911A1 with the "Ratshot" ammo conversion transforms it into the "M1911 .22LR". This turns the weapon into a pseudo-shotgun, allowing it to fire four extremely weak pellets up to 10 times before reloading. A joke attachment first and foremost, Ratshot has some dubious utility in point-blank engagements as it is technically capable of a one-hit kill if all four pellets score a headshot (4 pellets x 9 damage x 3.0 headshot multiplier = 108 damage), but the shotgun-pistol's somewhat wide spread, low pellet count, and miserable damage to the body add up to a weapon that is a straight downgrade in almost any situation compared to the .45 ACP M1911A1.

 ===OSS "Bigot" M1911A1===
 Equipping the "Dart" ammo conversion transforms the weapon into the experimental clandestine [[OSS "Bigot" M1911]]. A high-risk, high-reward weapon, the "Bigot" launches a large, slow dart projectile that deals heavy damage to the body and kills instantly to the head at any range. It is incapable of scoring a one-shot against a full-health opponent without a headshot, however, so the "Bigot" is best used as an instant, silent eliminator of distracted/stationary enemies (provided one becomes familiar with its arcing trajectory) or as a finisher against opponents that are already injured.

Before update 5.7.0, the weapon lacked the distinctive grip panels, tan finish, and ambidextrous grip safety of the M45A1, which made it a [[Colt Rail Gun]]. It has a threaded barrel, feeds from a 10-round extended magazine in its default configuration, and is otherwise similar performance-wise to the M1911A1. The M45A1 features a few unique mods, including a 15-round extended magazine, a generic polymer shoulder stock, and the same "Dart" conversion as the M1911A1.

The Five-seveN has a lot of positive qualities, including incredibly good long-range performance, low recoil, very high penetration, and the highest magazine size in-class (20 rounds). Unfortunately, the Five-seveN deals relatively low damage per shot and has a mediocre headshot multiplier, meaning that anywhere from 3 to 5 shots are required to eliminate a full-health opponent, which can be a death sentence in a hectic CQC battle. Its only unique modification is an extended 30-round magazine, which further increases the pistol's already impressive ammunition capacity at the expense of total rounds carried and reload speed.

The Glock 21, alongside the many other Glock-series pistols featured in ''Phantom Forces,'' was once available only through an ammunition conversion for the Glock 17. With 2022's "Return to Spring" update, however, the great Glock split transformed these conversions into their own unique pistols. Firing .45 ACP, the Glock 21 deals high close-range damage and features an impressive 13-round magazine. It deals less damage than other .45 handguns, however, and is not very effective at range. It can be modified to add a 26-round extended magazine and a FAB Defense GLR-440 Tactical Stock.

 ==Glock 21 (with .50 GI conversion)==
 A [[Glock 21]] with an aftermarket .50 GI conversion kit was added in April 2022 as part of update 5.7.0 and is unlocked at rank 50. Designated as the "G50" in-game, this pistol has the lowest capacity of the Glock series (8+1 rounds) but the highest damage per shot and a very healthy x2.0 headshot multiplier. Although unable to score a one shot kill (1SK) against a full health player, the G50 maintains a 2SK to the body or head at close range, making it the perfect sidearm for a player with a traditionally long-range primary weapon such as a sniper rifle or DMR.
 It can be modified to add an FAB Defense Cobra folding stock and an extended "Heavy Barrel", which changes the pistol's name to "G50L", a fictional designation. The "G50" is also the only Glock-series pistol that can be fitted with the "G-switch" attachment (a callback to how the Glock 18C was able to equip a ".50 GI Conversion" attachment in earlier versions of the game), converting the pistol to fire exclusively in full-auto.

The weapon's grips have been stamped with the StyLiS Studios logo. The Desert Eagle Mark XIX is, not unexpectedly, a weapon of extremes.

The Mark XIX can be modified to add a 10" extended barrel and converted to fire the (exceedingly rare) .440 Cor-Bon, although the pistol's magazine capacity when the latter is equipped is incorrect (9 rounds in-game vs. 7 rounds in real life).

 ==Intratec TEC-DC9==

Both weapons are unlocked at rank 50. They can be distinguished from the actual TEC-9 and KG-99 due to their lack of sling mounts on the side of the barrel shroud and receiver.
 The "TEC-9" holds the honor of having the highest sustained firerate in the game, spitting an astounding 1500 rounds per minute in full-auto only. This offsets its low base damage, allowing the machine pistol to rack up kills very quickly in close-quarters. Unsurprisingly, the "TEC-9" has very high recoil, with the weapon's point of aim "walking" uncontrollably when firing. It can be fitted with an extended barrel/barrel shroud or the short barrel of the TEC-9 Mini, a 32-round extended magazine, and the wire stock from the [[Interdynamic KG-9]].

Known as the "Grizzly", this oversized 1911-pattern handcannon is similar to the Desert Eagle Mark XIX in both form and function, with the former possessing more reserve ammunition (28 vs. 21 rounds) and a higher firerate (350 RPM vs. 200 RPM) at the cost of worse mid-range damage. The Grizzly's three-hexagon "LAR" slide marking has been replaced by a three-tiled StyLiS Studios marking, presumably for copyright reasons. The LAR Grizzly Mark V's only unique modification is a so-called heavy barrel, which attaches the barrel of the Grizzly Mark I Long Slide to the weapon; this would not work in real life, as one could not simply fit the barrel and slide of the .45 Winchester Magnum Grizzly Mark I to the frame of a .50 Action Express Mark V without... serious repercussions.

The PB (or "Izhevsk PB", as it is known in-game) is the first and, at the time of writing, only integrally-suppressed pistol in ''Phantom Forces''. The PB's safety is always in the "safe" position, which should prevent the weapon from firing; however, this is not the case. It feeds from an 8-round magazine, but 12-round extended and 84-round drum magazines (underloaded to 80 rounds) are also available. The PB is somewhat unique as it deals very high damage (to the point that it kills a full-health enemy with a single headshot) up to 20 studs (~18 feet) but has very sharp damage drop-off, with the pistol dealing only 40% of its base damage after 50 studs (~46 feet). This makes it a very effective backup weapon in close-quarters.
 Interestingly, the PB, although being integrally suppressed, has a higher muzzle velocity compared to its unsuppressed counterpart (1800 studs/s vs 1700 studs/s). This actually (sort of) makes sense, since in real life, some suppressors act like longer barrels if the bullet doesn’t come into contact with the suppressor, while suppressors that make contact with a bullet do reduce bullet speed.

The PM also features an obnoxiously long "Extended Barrel" modification, which roughly doubles the pistol's barrel length. In-game, the Makarov is a very agile pistol with an emphasis on CQC, featuring very little recoil, a fast aim-down-sights time, and a quick reload.

Unique modifications for the RARAN include an impossibly long barrel (a modification it shares with the Makarov PM) and a .380 ACP conversion, which increases the pistol's damage but reduces the magazine capacity to a paltry 12 rounds.

 ==Serbu GB-22==
 The [[Serbu GB-22]] was added in January 2021 as part of update 5.5.0 (New Years Update 2021) and is unlocked at rank 99. The GB-22 depicted in-game is slightly larger than the real weapon, fires from an open bolt and, true to its nature as a homemade weapon, features a crude wire-wrapped grip and custom extended barrel. The GB-22, although nowhere near as infamous as the game's ''other'' .22-caliber pistol, is mostly a joke weapon, as it deals very low damage and has nigh-unusable iron sights. Despite this, it instantly kills to the head at any range and possesses above average ballistics, making the single-shot pistol an extremely risky yet powerful weapon.
 The GB-22's unique modifications include a "Cut-down Barrel" and lengthened "Sporting Barrel" as well as three ammunition conversions. The first, 10mm Auto, substantially increases the pistol's muzzle velocity and torso damage while lowering the rate of fire, while the second, .50 AE, puts the "blaster" in "ghetto blaster" by turning the GB-22 into a potent single-shot handcannon. The final conversion is 12 gauge "minishells", which turns the pistol into a powerful breech-loading shotgun capable of launching 9 pellets of buckshot per trigger pull. None of these conversions, however, change the physical model of the cartridge loaded into the weapon.

As with other military-issue pistols, the M17 is an all-rounder.  It has good accuracy, low recoil, and moderate damage, allowing it to function well in close-quarters or at range. It has a 17-round magazine by default, but an extended 21-round magazine is available as a unique attachment.

 The [[STI 1911 Series|STI DVC Tactical 2011]] was added in April 2022 as part of update 5.7.0 (Return to Spring Update) is unlocked at rank 150. It is known as the "M2011" in-game and features a garish color scheme and many custom parts, including what appears to be a titanium nitride-coated barrel and a blue-finished slide-mounted charging handle handle. Firing 9x19mm, the 2011 is a versatile handgun that can perform well at both long range, thanks to its above-average headshot multiplier, and when up close, due to its spam-friendly 20-round magazine. However, it deals below average damage to the torso and limbs and has somewhat rapid damage falloff, which both can limit its effectiveness when poorly-aimed. The DVC Tactical 2011 can be modified to add an extended barrel and a Monarch Arms "Rifle-ette" stock, which can also be fitted to the AF2011-A1.

 ==USFA ZiP .22==
 The [[USFA ZiP .22]] was added in October 2017 as part of update 3.1.0 (Halloween 2017 Update) and is unlocked at rank 61. Designated as the "ZIP 22", it is a joke weapon, dealing extremely poor damage and feeding from a tiny 10-round Ruger 10/22 box magazine. The BattleZiP Survival SBR stock is automatically fitted to the pistol whenever an optic is attached, but it provides no stability benefits (as it exists only to provide a believable mounting point for attachments). In addition, the ZiP .22 can use 50-round ProMag Ruger 10/22 drum magazines (referred to as "Pro Mags" in-game), which provide a welcome increase in magazine size, and ".22 Ratshot" ammunition, which transforms the pistol into a compact "shotgun" of questionable utility.

 ==Walther GSP Expert==
 The [[Walther GSP Expert]] was added in June 2021 as part of update 5.6.3 (Pacific Cold Front Update Part 1) and is unlocked at rank 131. Despite being chambered in .22 LR, it incorrectly has the larger charging handle of the .32 S&W Long version of the GSP (also sometimes known as the GSP-C, for 'centerfire'). The GSP performs similarly to a magazine-fed version of the Serbu GB-22, providing a one-shot kill on headshot at the cost of very poor bodyshot damage. The GSP's 5-round magazine offers much more flexibility against multiple targets (or when one misses a shot or two) than the GB-22, but the GSP can only score a 1SK to the head up to 65 studs (60 feet) while the GB-22 can do it at any range. A number of unique modifications are available for the GSP Expert, including a barrel weight, which decreases felt recoil at the expense of walkspeed, a .32 Smith & Wesson Long conversion, and a .22 Ratshot conversion.

The "Mateba 6" can, much like many other revolvers in ''Phantom Forces,'' be equipped with an extended "cowboy" barrel, which increases accuracy and the time taken to aim, or a shortened snubnosed barrel, which does the opposite. Specialized .44 Special rounds, which significantly reduce recoil at the cost of damage, are also available.
+The [[Mateba Model 6 Unica]] was added in September 2018 (update 3.13.0) and is unlocked at rank 29. Appearing as the "Mateba 6", it is chambered in .44 Magnum and equipped with a 5" barrel. The Model 6 Unica has the joint highest firerate (600 RPM) but shortest effective range in-class, which allows for very quick follow-up shots, especially in close-quarters.

 ==MP-412 REX==
-The [[MP-412 REX]] appears as the first revolver players unlock, at rank 4. The in-game model is generally slightly off compared to the real weapon, and it incorrectly has the ability to mount a flash hider attachment; this would not work due to the cylinder gap. Oddly, it can pick up ammo from the .50 AE Desert Eagle XIX, despite it using .357 Magnum. The rounds in the cylinder are yellow.
+The [[MP-412 REX]] was added during the game's Alpha and is unlocked at rank 4. The REX features a 6" barrel in its default configuration, which is most likely a reference to the revolver's depiction in ''[[Battlefield: Bad Company 2]]'', and it incorrectly has the ability to mount a flash hider attachment, which not work in real life due to the cylinder gap. The MP-412 REX performs similarly to the Unica, serving as a "jack-of-all-trades" revolver with a high firerate and low minimum range. The REX has a few unique modifications, including "Snubnose" and "Cowboy" barrels and .38 Special ammunition.

 ==Remington 1858 New Army==
-A [[Remington 1858 New Army]] is unlocked at rank 58 and it incorrectly fires .357 Magnum. The description states the weapon to be a modern reproduction of a "vintage American ball-and-cap revolver", which explains the caliber choice and removable cylinder design. The rounds are missing from the cylinder.
+The [[Remington 1858 New Army]] was added in January 2018 (update 3.4.0) and is unlocked at rank 58. It has a brass frame and is reloaded by swapping cylinders, giving the New Army a surprisingly fast reload (for a revolver). The 1858 New Army can neutralize an enemy with a single headshot out to a surprisingly long range and has rather controllable recoil, but it also has lots of drawbacks. These include a slow firerate, low muzzle velocity, and hard-to-use iron sights. The 1858 New Army can be modified to use either an extremely short 3" barrel or an extended 12" barrel. It also features a ".36 Caliber" conversion, which transforms the pistol into the Remington 1858 Navy, and "Snakeshot" ammunition, which allows the 1858 to function as a compact scattergun.
+[[File:Remington1858brassframe.jpeg|thumb|none|350px|Remington 1858 New Army with brass frame - .44 ball]]
-The weapon is depicted as double-action rather than single-action, although the player character does make a motion that resembles cocking the hammer after firing. The weapon can be fan fired to increase the rate of fire.

 ==Ruger Redhawk==
-The [[Ruger Redhawk]] appears as the "Redhawk 44", firing .44 Magnum. It can equip a stock, called the "KAC Stock", and the weapon is unlocked at rank 83.
+The [[Ruger Redhawk]] was added in June 2019 (update 4.5b) and is unlocked at rank 83. Firing .44 Magnum, the Redhawk deals high damage per shot (especially on headshot) but has high recoil, incentivizing single, accurate shots. The Redhawk has several unique modifications. Two of these modify the revolver's barrel, those being a 2.7" "snubnose" barrel and a very long "cowboy barrel" modeled after the [[Smith & Wesson Model 629 Stealth Hunter]]'s barrel. The Redhawk also has access to the so-called KAC shoulder stock, which is taken from the game's [[Knight's Armament Revolver Rifle]] model (which is itself based on an airsoft reimagining of the revolver carbine with custom wooden furniture), and a .45 Long Colt conversion, which vastly increases the revolver's damage at the cost of restricting it to single-action only.

 ==="Toy Gun"===
 The Redhawk model is also the basis for the "Toy Gun", a melee weapon that can be obtained by rolling a Legendary on a case. Although a melee weapon, it can fire darts, which are fired after swinging the weapon to attack, inspecting it, or spotting enemies with it; these do not interact with the world, passing through walls, dealing no damage to players, and are deleted shortly after leaving the barrel. The weapon can fire an infinite number of darts. Aside from the texture, the only difference the Toy Gun has from the regular Redhawk is the barrel. The design of the Toy Gun is more akin to a cap gun than a dart blaster, as it has no room for an air compressor or spring-loaded priming mechanism, and its barrel is completely solid; this is most likely the result of it being made out of the model for a real revolver.

Due to the small size, the player holds it like a pistol, with both hands on the grip. The alternate aim mode has the gun held sideways, "gangster" style. This is shared with every pistol except the Desert Eagles. When using optics, they are mounted on a raised rail, so as not to obstruct the bolt, and the angled grip attachment clips into the trigger.

Despite these advantages, the DT11, as a double-barreled shotgun, only has access to two rounds before it must be reloaded, which, coupled with its tight spread, demands precision from the player.
