Metro Exodus, released on February 15, 2019, is the third title in the Metro first person survival shooter franchise (following Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light) and is based on both the events of the previous two games and Dmitry Glukhovsky's third novel Metro 2035. The game continues Artyom's story, where he ends up setting in motion a chain of events that leads him, his wife Anna, and squad of Rangers lead by Anna's father Colonel Miller out of the Moscow Metro and eastward across Russia to search for any existing civilization that survived World War III.
Exodus has a revamped system in regards to weapons and firearms compared to the prior two games. Weapons are now even more customizable than they were in Last Light, and new weapons and upgrades have to be found as the game takes place out of the Moscow Metro and its military-grade 5.45 standard. A new element to the gunplay is degrading weapon conditions; dirty firearms will malfunction and have to be cleaned, similar to Far Cry 2 and Red Dead Redemption II, although like the latter, Artyom can clean and restore his weapons using workbenches. These stations may also be used to customize guns, which Artyom can also do on-the-go with a backpack kit given to him by the Ranger squad's armorer.
The following weapons can be seen in the video game Metro Exodus:
Sidearms
"Revolver"
The classic .44 "Revolver" is found throughout the world of Metro Exodus. Now it is somewhat unusually based on the antique Smith & Wesson No. 3 Russian Model. By default, it uses a primitive three-round cylinder that Artyom must manually cycle and cock for each shot. It can be upgraded with a proper six-shot cylinder available either in single-action or in double-action. In addition, it can take improved stock sets and longer barrels, akin to the carbine-length Revolvers in the previous games.

"Bastard"
The "Bastard" carbine returns from the previous games, still with its influences from the Sten and the Hotchkiss M1909, though in a different configuration. It now fires the same .44 ammunition as the Revolver, and comes in a pistol-like configuration by default, feeding from 15-round feed stripper clips. It can be upgraded with improved barrels, furniture, and it also use standard capacity 30-round strips, 50-round drum magazines or a 100-round ammunition belt. By default it has the same Smith & Wesson No. 3 Russian Model's grip from "Revolver".

M1911A1
A customized M1911A1 variant with an engraved and ported slide and custom grips appears as the "Stallion" (explicit reference to the Colt logo). Along with the Sammy, it's a new weapon featured in the Sam's Story DLC. It is based on the standard M1911A1, while the compensator is based on that of the Smith & Wesson SW1911 Performance Center. It can be customized with an extended or a drum magazine, full auto fire, and alternate grips. Despite the in-game description stating that it is a .45, it still uses standard .44 ammunition of the Revolver.
Rifles
"Kalash"
The AK-74M again returns in a variety of different configurations in Exodus and is a common weapon found across post-apocalypse Russia. By default, it comes in a very primitive AKS-74U-like form that lacks a dust cover, has a skeletal-like stock and pistol grip, and feeds from non-standard twenty-round 5.45x39mm magazines; this configuration is rather like the original 5.45 Bastard carbine. Stock upgrades return the dust cover and proper AK furniture or other improved stocks and forends. 30- and 45- round magazines can be found as well, and a 75-round drum can be found in the Caspian Sea level.
"AK-103" is written on the side of the receiver, which the Kalash clearly isn't.

"Bulldog"
A new rifle resembling an SVU is the "Bulldog", a bullpup assault rifle that appears to be the spiritual successor to the "Kalash 2012" of the previous games. Compared to the AK-74, the "Bulldog" has a lower rate of fire and deals more damage per shot, and both rifles share most of the same upgrades other than the "Bulldog" having a unique 60-round magazine upgrade.

"Valve"
Also returning from Last Light is the 7.62x54mm R "Valve" bolt action rifle. It is in a truncated, pistol-like form by default but can be upgraded with proper barrels, stocks, and a scope for proper sniper usage. It is also single-shot with a conventional bolt-action by default, but can be upgraded with a side-feeding 5-round box magazine and straight-pull bolt modification akin to the Last Light version, or a 25-round magazine that's tied with a semi-automatic conversion of the action. It is first found in the Caspian level.

"Sammy"
A pre-production model of the AK-12 named "Sammy" is a new assault rifle from the Sam's Story DLC. It is designed to fire special incendiary cartridges, which are similar to the military-grade rounds from the previous Metro games. It can be customized with a few magazine and stock options (including what appears to be Thompson furniture), and can be modified to fire in 3-round bursts, semi-auto, or full-auto.
Shotguns
"Ashot"
The "Ashot" returns from Last Light as a simple, single-shot, pistol-form shotgun. It can be upgraded with improved furniture sets to turn it into a handy carbine, and an over/under double barrel configuration that gives it similar performance to the "Duplet" from the first two games. It is still partially based on the Reichsrevolver M1883.
"Shambler"
The complex toggle-action shotgun known as the "Shambler" (originally Uboinik) is also featured in Exodus. Artyom starts off with one in the prologue, with a measly three-shell cylinder. It can be upgraded with its classic six-round rotating cylinder, and can additionally use 10-round removable magazines or a 20-round belt drum, fulfilling the roles of the Saiga 12 and 12-gauge "Abzats" DShK from the previous game.

Machine Guns
"Gatling"
A man portable, hip-fired machine gun rather erroneously referred to as the "Gatling" is available in the game. Despite its name, it is a non-rotary machine gun that instead features twin barrels and feeds from "quadrant" pan-style magazines.

Unusable Weapons
Margolin MCM
Krest has twin shoulder holsters carrying pistol that appear to be Margolin MCM target pistols with wooden grips. They have been speculated to be Makarovs or Tokarevs, but this cannot be because the grip shape and the screws don't match the design of either. He is never seen using the pistols.
DShK
DShK machine guns can be found throughout the game, but as in Last Light, none are usable. While exploring the Novosibirsk Metro, Miller remarks at the sight of one as "our old friend, the Dushka.".

Shipunov 2A42
Shipunov 2A42 autocannons can be seen on defunct BTR-90 APCs that can be found in several of the game's chapters.
Flamethrower
The "Two Colonels" DLC introduced a new weapon, a portable flamethrower, similar to the one was in Metro 2033 Redux. It can be equipped with various upgrades, including larger fuel tanks.
