Work In Progress
This article is still under construction. It may contain factual errors. See Talk:Beyond The Wire for current discussions. Content is subject to change.
Beyond The Wire is a 2022 tactical team-based first-person shooter video game set in the First World War, developed by Redstone Interactive and published by Offworld Interactive, the creators of Squad and Post Scriptum. Twisting trenches, roaring artillery, rattling machine guns. Beyond The Wire wants to convey to players how cruel the First World War could be. Due to the claustrophobic narrowness of the numerous trenches, the game also relies heavily on close combat. Realism is also very important to the developers: accurate uniforms and weapons as well as authentic vehicles are supposed to provide a historically tinged feeling.
The following weapons appear in the video game Beyond The Wire:
Released with the Alpha, the Colt M1911 is available for the American Expeditionary Forces' Assault Class, alongside the Harlem Hellfighters and the Canadian Expeditionary Forces (CEF).
Luger P08
The Luger P08 appears in-game as the "Pistole P08", used by the German officer class as well as the German Assault Class.
Artillery Model
The Luger P08 Artillery Model is also available, dubbed the "Luger Lange Pistole P08" which appears in two basic forms in-game. The more commonly seen version with a 32 round Trommelmagazin is used as an alternative weapon for the German Assault Class. And in a rarity for a video game, the Artillery Luger with normal 8 round mags is used by actual artillery troops. Yes, the Artillery Crewmen classes get access to it.
Mauser C96
The Mauser C96 with the stock is as a playable sidearm.
Ruby
The Ruby appears in-game as the main semi-automatic sidearm of the French Republic, called the "Ruby 1915" in-game. It's also used by the Harlem Hellfighters.
Revolvers
Colt M1917
The American officer class and the Harlem Hellfighter's Assault Class has access to the M1917 Revolver, the Canadian's also have access to this revolver as the "Colt New Service" although it shares the same model and in the case of the New Service incorrect moon clips.
Colt New Service
The Canadians have access to the Colt New Service revolver. It is available for the Assault, Raiding, and Rifle sections.
MAS Mle. 1892
The other sidearm for the French is the Mle 1892 Revolver and is named "Modéle 1892 Revolver", primarily issued to officers.
Reichsrevolver M1883
The Reichsrevolver M1883 is the only revolver available for the German Imperial Army. The in-game Reichsrevolver is erroneously shown as double-action, possibly to bring it up to par with the other factions' revolvers.
Smith & Wesson Mk. II
The Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector appears as a sidearm for the Canadian Expeditionary Forces (CEF) as one of their sidearm choices, primarily issued to classes like the Medic.
Webley Mk. VI
The Webley Mk VI is the duty sidearm for the British faction, used by the Officer and Assault classes.

The standard infantry rifle for the BEF is the Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III. The in-game name incorrectly refers to it as a "*" model, despite the model portraying the earlier pattern.
Lebel Mle. 1886 M93
The Lebel 1886, in-game name "Fusil Mle 1886/M93 Lebel", is the main rifle of the French Republic and as a placeholder for the Harlem Hellfighters until a Berthier Model 1907-15 is added. A scoped model fitting the APX Mle 1917 scope is also available to the French Empire's marksman class.
Mauser Gewehr 1898
The Mauser Gewehr 1898 will be the standard rifle for the German faction and it is seen named "Gewehr 1898" in the Alpha. A scoped version will be also available with the Glasvisier 16, like in Screaming Steel: 1914-1918. The Seitengewehr 98/05 bayonet appears both as an option mounted to the rifle, and as the "Bayonet" melee weapon given out to a variety of classes.
Mauser Karabiner 98AZ
The Mauser 98AZ Artillery Carbine has been added as an alternative main arm for the German faction, alongside the designated arm for the fittingly Artillery troops.

Chauchat M1918
The American .30-06 American Conversion variant of the Chauchat was initially added for the AEF, now replaced by the BAR. It's currently the LMG of choice for the Harlem Hellfighters.
Colt Model 1895
