Secret Service (2008)

Secret Service is a 2008 low-budget first-person shooter developed by Cauldron HQ. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2, and Xbox 360 in North America on November 4th, 2008 and was released in Europe on March 13th, 2009.

Players control United States Secret Service agent Pierce, who must defend the president-elect when Washington, D.C. comes under assault by an army of hostile soldiers on Inauguration Day.

The following weapons appear in the video game Secret Service (2008):

Handguns

SIG-Sauer P229R

Pierce and other USSS agents' main sidearm is the SIG-Sauer P229R, called the ".40 SS" in-game (despite the official Secret Service sidearm being chambered in .357 SIG and not .40 S&W.) The barrel of Pierce's P229 protrudes beyond the gun's frame, as if to indicate that a suppressor could potentially be attached, though suppressed weapons are unavailable in this game.

-Pierce and other U.S.S.S. Agents' main sidearm is the [[SIG-Sauer P229|SIG-Sauer P229R]], called the ".40 SS" in-game (despite the official Secret Service sidearm being chambered in .357 SIG and not .40 S&W.) The barrel of Pierce's P229 protrudes beyond the gun's frame, as if to indicate that a suppressor could potentially be attached, though suppressed weapons are unavailable in this game.

 ==Glock 17 ==
-The [[Glock 17]] is the second and only pistol, except for the P229. Holds only 12 rounds. 12-rounded magazines do not exist for the Glock 17 in real life, only for the sub-compact Glock 26, however those magazines cannot be used with the full-sized Glock 17. Appears as "17A1". It is used by some of the terrorists.

+=Shotguns=
+== Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser ==
+The [[Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser]] is featured in the game as one of the two pump-action shotguns. The weapon's model is directly lifted from the developer's previous game ''[[Soldier of Fortune: Payback]]'', with the ATI shotgun foregrip and incorrect 7-shot capacity. The only difference is the weapon's name; in ''SoFP'' it was "CAWS-90", in this game it is called "CAWS-50".

-==Colt M4A1==
+=Rifles=
-Referred to as the "TAR 5.56", the [[M4A1]] is the standard carbine of the Secret Service in the game. The M4A1s available are SOPMOD with attached scope and forward vertical grip.
+==Custom AR-15==
+The standard carbine used by Secret Service agents and enemy troopers, based on the [[AR-15]] platform. Referred to as the "TAR 5.56" (not to be confused with the [[TAR-21]]). It is equipped with a 16" heavy barrel, full-auto lower, LE stock, and [[HK416]]-style handguard. Equipped with a foregrip and Aimpoint sight.

 ==AK-103==

 ==Remington 700P==
-The [[Remington 700|R700P]] is used by Pierce in the levels "Inaugural Assault", and "Last Stand". Referred to as the "M70 Sniper Rifle". The in-game variant is clearly the "P" variant, but it is shown with a 5-round detachable box magazine, like the R700 USR or R700 Export.

+==M26 Taser==
+The [[Taser|M26 Taser]] is used during the part when the player has to face some USSS agents with questionable loyalties. Instead of firing two small dart-like electrodes, the in-game M26 fires hi-speed darts (that are not connected to the main unit). The game's Taser has unlimited range, can take out enemies from basically any distance. The real Taser has a range of 15-20 feet at maximum.
