The Soviet Union's official sniper rifle at the time of the game. It is the exact same as in Metal Gear Solid: Portable OPS and MGS3 in terms of design and use, at early levels at least. In mid levels, the SVD obtains an extended magazine, granting 10 extra rounds. At its full development, it gets equipped with an early ( possibly anachronical ) night vision scope, better suited for night-time operations.
Mosin Nagant

Walther WA 2000

M21

Degtyarov PTRD-41
The PTRD-41 is a powerful weapon but holds only one round.
Degtyarov PTRS-41

Machine Guns
PKM
The PKM is available in hand-held or vehicle-mounted varieties. Upgrades shorten the barrel, increase damage and fitted with larger magazine box.
RPK
The RPK is used mainly be Soviet soldiers in the game.
M60
The M60 is a devastating weapon but also significantly reduces the player's mobility. It produces higher recoil than many other small arms and has a very low rate of fire. Can be upgraded to reduce its length what also reduces weight.
DShK
Snake (without any clothes on the upper body apart from 2 bullet belts) is seen firing the DShK in a screenshot.
MG3
The MG3 is a very powerful machine gun and an excellent choice against heavy targets such as armored vehicles, tanks and helicopters.
Stoner 63
Stoner 63 in light machine gun configuration appears in-game called "M63A1". Further upgrades fit the gun with shortened barrel, larger magazine box and armor piercing rounds.
GE M134 Minigun
This man-portable Minigun has a very good fire-power and an amazing rate of fire however it slows down the player heavily.
Launchers
M203
The M203 can be attached to the M16A1 or Model 653 and fires either high explosive or smoke grenades.
GP-25
Can be mounted on the AK-47.
RPG2
Predecessor to the RPG-7. Weighs around 300 grams more than the LAW, but you get to carry an extra rocket.
RPG-7
The RPG-7 also makes an appearance in the game. It is obtained by the player and used by the enemies near the end of the game.It is one of the launchers of the game that can be unlocked. It also has a PGO-7 scope attached to it for accurate aimming.Like in most MGS games it is always used by Snake.
M72 LAW
Single-shot disposable anti-tank rocket launcher. You'll occasionally use this in cutscenes, where you'll get a good representation of the launcher's flip-up sights. With each upgrade, the LAW will get a firepower boost, along with a different color scheme, except for the last and final upgrade where it becomes longer, still retaining the black paint job.
FIM-43 Redeye
A predecessor to the FIM-92 Stinger. Being an early version of it, its lock-on computer is weaker and takes a considerable time to lock-on targets. Can be dumb-fired or fired after locking on. Lock-on works on both air and ground targets.
M202A1
Carl Gustav M2
Can be modified to fire 84mm shells packed with Fulton Recovery Devices in lieu of standard 84mm HE rounds. Longer reload time than the other single-shot rocket launchers since the spent casing needs to be removed before a new shell can be loaded. Another variation, painted yellow, fires HEAT ( High Explosive Anti Tank ) rounds, doing slightly less damage but over a much wider radius.
X-FIM-92 Stinger
The prototype version of the FIM-92 Stinger, as it is known today. How this weapon exists in 1974 is a mystery and purely anachronical. Its warhead is slightly more powerful, along with the lock-on computer, taking slightly more than one second to lock. Once fired, the missile behaves exactly like the FIM-43's.
