Yeah, I have re-created this page because the game DOES contain some realistic weapons. Oh, and can anyone help with that revolver? --bozitojugg3rn4ut 20:31, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


that third ak47 picture looks more like an mp44

I think it is too. I believe that was when you go back in time to the 30's i think. I haven't played the game in a while so I'm a bit rusty User:SeanWolf

there are no Germans in the game nor does it take place in Germany nor there is any connection to Germans or Nazis or anything like that I don't think its the 30's I believe the past levels was in cold war times, since it is mentioned that the experiments are done in order to gain upper hand against America which would make no sense in the 30's

That image is from the beta, check the dude's gloves and the TMD - they look different on the other images. And that weapon is an AK, what would the MP44 do on a fictional Russian island in '55? --bozitojugg3rn4ut 23:03, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Help to assault rifle identify.

Can anybody tell me what kind of assault rifle? This is similar to AKMSU, but has another construction of gas operated unit. It modeled with black furniture, red-dot sight, laser designator, fixed buttstock, and 20-round plastic magazine and looks like a cross between AKMSU and SIG SG 552 Commando.
