Camera footage in the intro cutscene of the mission "Libyan Rendezvous" indicates that the story takes place in 1994, but the Mark XIX version of the Desert Eagle was introduced one year later; a .44 Magnum Desert Eagle Mark VII could have been used instead.

==Heckler & Koch Mk 23 Mod 0==
The [[Heckler & Koch Mk 23 Mod 0]] is referred in-game as the "Socom" and comes with a suppressor and a usable LAM unit. It provides suppressed but effective shots; it is used by David in the Libyan mission, and Anya holds one in the last cutscene of the game. While the Mk 23 was produced in 1991, the "SOCOM" designation would only be correct for the version adopted in 1996; as such, it is anachronistic to the game taking place in 1994.

The [[Heckler & Koch G36E]] is only used by David in the Libyan missions. It incorrectly offers a 3-round burst option instead of the real 2-round burst. It is also anachronistic, since although it was designed during the game's setting, it was actually produced in 1996.

The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] appears under the U.S. nomenclature "M1014", and is used by Libyan and Chinese special forces. It is anachronistic to the game, since the real weapon was produced in 1999; the [[Benelli M3]] could have been used instead.

The Desert Eagle Mark XIX appears in the game, referred to as "D-Eagle", and used by Zaleb Said and his guards in the Libyan missions. It is one of the most powerful handguns in the game.
The Glock 17 is the starting pistol in the Russian levels and comes with a suppressor; it is referred to as the "G-17 SD". It provides accurate but weak firepower.
The Heckler & Koch Mk 23 Mod 0 is referred in-game as the "Socom" and comes with a suppressor and a usable LAM unit. It provides suppressed but effective shots; it is used by David in the Libyan mission, and Anya holds one in the last cutscene of the game.
The Makarov PM is used by Russian guards, and also by Russian and Chinese scientists as a backup weapon. Despite firing the 9x18mm round, it is attributed with a higher damage than the Glock 17. Wu Xing uses a Makarov PM (presumably standing in for the Type 59 Chinese copy) in the intro cuscene of the "Secret Weapons Lab" mission, where it uses the Desert Eagle's firing sound, likely due to the more dramatic sound of the Desert Eagle.
The player starts the game with the Heckler & Koch MP5A3. It incorrectly offers a 3-round burst option, which would be the case for other variants like the MP5A5.
The Colt M16A2 is a starting weapon in the Russian missions, equipped with an M203 grenade launcher. It is used by the IGI special forces in the last cutscene of the game. It incorrectly fires in fully-automatic mode (like the real M16A3) instead of three-round burst.
The Heckler & Koch G11 K2 is used by General Wu Xing in the "Secret Weapons Lab" mission, and is available to the player afterwards. It only fires in fast 3-round burst mode, and it offers a scoped view.
The Norinco Type 56-1 appears; like the Zastava M70B1 from the first game, it is wrongly referred to as an AK-47. It is used by Russian and Chinese guards and Libyan special forces.
The Pancor Jackhammer returns from the previous game, its appearance again being incorrect since the real Jackhammer never entered production. It can be found in the Libyan missions, and is also used by Priboi and Zaleb. Once again it has an erroneous cylinder capacity of 12 rounds instead of 10.
The Barrett M82A1 is used by Chinese special forces. A version with a thermal vision scope is also available as the "M82A1-T" in "The Ancient Temple" mission.
Like in the original game, the "SVD Dragunov" (as referred in the text when picking up the weapon) is a hybrid of the SVD Dragunov and the Romanian FPK / PSL.
The FN Minimi is used by Chinese guards, and can also be found in the Libyan mission. Like in the previous game, it is simply reloaded by changing the belt box without actually inserting the belt into the feed tray.
The M203 grenade launcher is attached to the M16A2. Contrary to most the rest of the returning weapons from the first Project IGI, in this game the M203 is reanimated to properly depict it as a single-shot, break-open weapon that must be reloaded after every shot, rather than some sort of shotgun pump attachment that launches grenades so long as the user has any on their person.
The RPG-7 is available in the game with a PGO-7 scope. It is first seen in the mission "Ambush", where David Jones takes one from a Russian convoy to destroy an APC. The RPG is also used by Libyan special forces and Chinese guards.
Stun grenades (referred to as Flashbangs in-game) are used by Russian, Libyan and Chinese special forces in singleplayer, but are only available to the player in multiplayer.
