The [[Huot Automatic Rifle]] was found in the games beta files.
The [[Huot Automatic Rifle]] is avalibe for the support class. This weapons inclusion in the game is not realistic as the Huot never saw service during the war and there are only five known to exist.
Battlefield 1 is a first-person shooter under development by Swedish game developer DICE and to be published by Electronic Arts, and the next installment in the popular Battlefield series. It appears to be set in a fictionalized version of the First World War, with players taking on the role of soldiers in the trenches or controlling vehicles from tanks and early fighter planes to armored trains and zeppelins.
Current footage is from trailers, and E3 2016 footage and online streams of a highly incomplete multiplayer pre-alpha build. The main map seen in this footage is "The St. Quentin Scar," set during the Battle of Mont Saint-Quentin in 1918. More recently, footage from Gamescom has been released, set on the map "Sinai Desert", and featuring new weapons and game mechanics.
The game's class system is altered somewhat from previous incarnations. The Assault class is close to the anti-tank classes of previous games, using heavy anti-vehicle weapons and submachine guns or shotguns, the Medic class are general-purpose combatants with automatic or semi-automatic rifles, the Support class use machine guns, and the Scout class use sniper rifles. There are also new vehicle-using "Tanker" and "Pilot" classes, both using pistol-carbines and the former having a repair tool; these appear to be automatically assigned if the player chooses to spawn directly inside a vehicle.
The following weapons appear in the video game Battlefield 1:
The "M1911" in the game is a hybrid with features of both the M1911 and M1911A1, the latter being anachronistic since the M1911A1 was not standardised until 1926. It has a long M1911-style trigger and hammer spur and a short grip safety spur, but an A1-style frame cutout behind the trigger, no diamond markings on the grip, and a curved mainspring housing.
The Luger P08 pistol appears as a sidearm in the Battlefield 1. A heavily engraved Luger P08 appears in the Red Baron Pack, which is included in the Early Enlister Deluxe Edition.

This train served on both sides during the Russian Civil War and undertook a remarkable journey across the world, ultimately ending up in the hands of the Japanese military after being seized from Chinese forces in Manchuria.
Mauser C96
A Mauser C96 can be seen on the boxart as well as second gameplay trailer and is available in Battlefield 1 as a sidearm. It is called the C96 Export in-game.
In the present pre-alpha, a carbine Mauser C96 is the main weapon for all soldiers in the Pilot and Tanker classes. Oddly, the weapon has a 20-round fixed magazine; while these did exist, they weren't ever recorded as being put into carbines.
A Kolibri Pistol is available in Battlefield 1, where it is the weakest pistol in the game. It appears to hold 8 rounds as opposed to the actual version holding only 6.

Note the delineation between the upper and lower frame sections and diagonal grooves in the cylinder.
Smith & Wesson No.3
A Smith & Wesson No.3 is available in Battlefield 1 simply called No.3 Revolver. It does not appear to be a russian model as it lacks the trigger guard spur, however it is unknown what caliber it is.
An Austrian Gasser M1870 is available in Battlefield 1. It is likely the 11.25x36mmR model and the description states it was favoured by Austrian Stormtroopers.
The Beretta M1918 submachine gun is shown in the second gameplay trailer. Presumably due to the continued existence of Beretta's name trademark, in the pre-alpha multiplayer gameplay footage it is called the "Automatico M1918."

The sight visible to the left of the magazine is based on an experimental magnifying sight developed for the Lee-Enfield rifle, though it was never used on the M1918 and is probably another "accessory" upgrade.
Bergmann MP18
The Bergmann MP18 is also seen on the boxart as well as second gameplay trailer.

The MP18 was never actually fitted with a folding bayonet in real life, so this is probably treated as an "accessory" for multiple weapons in the game.
The Browning Auto-5 is one of the available shotguns for the Assault class. In-game it is known as the 12G Automatic. Unlike the two other shotguns, the player loads an extra round in the chamber. This was most likely done for balancing purposes.
The Remington Model 10A is the first shotgun unlocked for the Assault class and is referred as the "Model 10-A". It differs from the Winchester Model 1897 for having a longer barrel of 23 inches, rather than 20 inches on the Model '97. It has a correct 6-round tube capacity in the game.

Note the experimental dot sight on it, this kind of sight was only tested by the British in small quantities and only on the Lee-Enfield rifles of the era.
Winchester Model 1897
The Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun is one of the available shotguns for the Assault class under the name "M97 Trench Gun." It holds 5 rounds in the tube, and is also capable of being "slam-fired" in game, just like in real life. However, unlike in previous Battlefield games, the player is unable to load a round in the chamber, unlike on the 12G Automatic. This was most likely done for balancing purposes.
The Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr can also be seen in the trailer and a Promotional picture. It is one of the 3 power-weapon pickups available as of the Gamescom build.
Italian soldiers in the first trailer are seen with what appear to be ersatz Carcano 1891 Cavalry Carbines made out of the game's other rifle models. Since the soldiers are only seen briefly, the models are almost certainly placeholders for an actual Carcano model to be completed later.
A Remington Model 8 briefly appears in the Battlefield 1 Trailer series: Weapons. It appears that two variants exist, a .35 Remington caliber with a fixed 5 round magazine and a .25 Remington caliber with a detachable 15 round magazine.
The Springfield M1903 Mk 1 fitted with the Pedersen Device is available in the game. Which makes the weapon function as a semi-automatic rifle firing the experimental .30 Auto-Pistol round, a mix between the .32 ACP and the WW2-era .30 Carbine. Production began in 1917 and it was officially adopted as US Automatic Pistol, Caliber .30, Model of 1918. However, the war ended before it saw combat usage; it would have been in use during the 1919 Spring Offensive.
The Winchester Model 1907 appears to be a weapon for the medic class. In early builds of the game, its magazine used the 10-rounder model despite holding 20 rounds, but this was since corrected to its proper (and hilarious) length. One player character is also shown with one fitted with a bayonet and Thompson submachine gun foregrip, a modification made in real life by members of John Dillinger's gang, though it is not known to have been done to any French military rifle. Of the two attachment presets available in the game, one is semi-automatic only while the other is select-fire; French M1907s were often converted to select-fire.
The World War I version of the Browning Automatic Rifle is available to the Support class in game, and has an above rate of fire for the weapon of 600 RPM.
The Hotchkiss Mk.I light machine gun is shown in the second gameplay trailer. Note the HUD icon appears to be equipped with the World War II-era hinged bipod at the end of the weapon.
The Huot Automatic Rifle is avalibe for the support class. This weapons inclusion in the game is not realistic as the Huot never saw service during the war and there are only five known to exist.
The Wechselapparat M1917 is seen in the hands of an Italian soldier and is fired by a German soldier. It is the 3rd battle pickup available as of the Gamescom build of the game.
The 1.59-inch Breech-Loading Vickers Q.F. Gun Mk II, a rather obscure weapon designed for attacking enemy fortifications and quickly replaced in infantry use by the Stokes Trench Mortar, is a deployable weapon for the assault class, similar to the rocket and missile launchers of previous games. It is referred to in the game as the "AT Rocket Gun," which is an error not entirely of the developers' making: due to the two flames emitted from holes in the base of incendiary shells for the aircraft-mounted version, it was popularly known as the "Vickers-Crayford Rocket Gun"
The Geballte Ladung appears to be a weapon used by the assault class (referred to as the "Anti-Tank Grenade"), and is seen on the belt of an Allied soldier in the teaser trailer as well as in a multiplayer footage.
During the second gameplay trailer, one player character is seen manning a 7.7cm Feldkanone 96 n.A., followed by the POV player character taking control of one and using it to shoot a British Mark V "male" tank. More Feldkanones are seen around control points in multiplayer footage.
Fixed 21cm Mörser 16 heavy howitzers are seen in preview trailers and around base areas in the multiplayer footage. In the E3 2016 multiplayer footage the teams did not seem to be using them, implying that whatever mechanics they are to use have not been implemented yet.
A Granatwerfer 16 is briefly seen in a trailer. It is available as a gadget for the Support class and comes with two variants, an Airburst version ideal for Infantry but dealing minimal damage to vehicles and a High Explosive (HE) variant ideal for enemy armor but dealing less splash damage to infantry.
The British Mark V tank incorrectly has a Lewis Gun mounted on the bow, which can be used by the driver; in real life, there would be a separate gunner for the machine gun mounted here. Lewis guns were mounted on previous Marks of British tank, but the Mark V used Hotchkiss guns instead. Mark V tanks seem to be used by both sides, which is actually accurate; huge numbers of tanks were abandoned following failed advances and pressed back into service with German forces.
Fixed Maxim machine guns can be found around maps seen in the multiplayer pre-alpha. These are shown fitted with a Russian-style ribbed water jacket. A similar Maxim is seen mounted in a cupola on top of the British airship, which is actually a German P-Class Zeppelin.
The German A7V tank is equipped with a 57mm main gun and a number of Maxim MG08 machine guns that can be used by the crew. As with the Mark V, the A7V is shown being used by both sides, which is a little less likely since only 20 were built and the British and French already had tanks that were superior to them.
