Regarding the Mk 23 and Beretta 92FS, I saw the trigger guard and the muzzle of the Mk 23 in the game's pistol model, since the muzzle is clearly longer than that of the Beretta 92FS, but I agree it's too crude and old to positively ID as such. About the shotgun, I noticed several parts of the shotguns listed as possible inspirations for the game's shotgun, such as the folding stocks, receivers, pistol grips, barrels, etc. | Regarding the Mk 23 and Beretta 92FS, I saw the trigger guard and the muzzle of the Mk 23 in the game's pistol model, since the muzzle is clearly longer than that of the Beretta 92FS, but I agree it's too crude and old to positively ID as such.

Not sure where you specifically see a Mark 23 anywhere in that pistol image.. just looks like a crude Beretta 92 overall to me. Ditto for the shotgun, really just looks like a crude M1014 overall, not seeing where any of the other shotguns come into play. I'll add to those by saying even in the crude model the grip follows the contour of the Beretta's grips and not the HK, while the extractor receiver and stock (albeit crudely) follows with the M1014. For the record, I don't believe we allow crude artwork liberties as any basis for saying there's a mix of weapon components or different finishes - Leave that for pieces which actually show stainless finishes and/or different elements from other weapons.

RE: Mk 23 and shotgun
Sorry, I'm no gun expert, just an amateur. I created this article because I thought it was relevant to identify some of the guns in the game. Regarding the Mk 23 and Beretta 92FS, I saw the trigger guard and the muzzle of the Mk 23 in the game's pistol model, since the muzzle is clearly longer than that of the Beretta 92FS, but I agree it's too crude and old to positively ID as such. About the shotgun, I noticed several parts of the shotguns listed as possible inspirations for the game's shotgun, such as the folding stocks, receivers, pistol grips, barrels, etc. Please, feel free to modify the article accordingly if the guns in question are not worthy of being identified or if the models are too crude and ambiguous to bother with them.
