Just Cause 2 is a 2010 open world action-adventure developed by Avalanche Studios and Eidos Interactive, published by Square Enix. The story follows the character of Rico Rodriguez as he is sent into the fictional island state of Panau by an organisation simply known as "The Agency", tasked with toppling it's current leader, "Baby" Panay. The game is spread out over a huge area, the islands being beautifully rendered and designed, having every area in the map able to be traveled too by the player with ease. Weapons are most easily obtained from the Panauan Military, which are present throughout the islands. Rico can carry a total of two smaller weapons (In holsters on both hips), and one larger 'heavy' weapon (slung over his back). The small weapons, i.e. the Desert Eagle, S&W M500, Sawn-off double barrel and FAMAE SAF, can be dual wielded, using any combination of the four weapon types. All the weapons and vehicles can be upgraded over the course of the game using upgrade points found in the game world, or earned by completing missions.
The following firearms appear in the video game Just Cause 2:
Handguns
Desert Eagle Mark VII
The Desert Eagle appears as the "Pistol". It can be identified as the Mark VII by the safety lever and its lack of scope rails as featured on the Mark XIX. The true calibre cannot be determined: The real Desert Eagle holds 9 rounds in .357, 8 in .44 Magnum and 7 in .50 AE, while the in-game version starts out with a 12 round magazine.
Smith & Wesson Model 500
This Revolver is based on the Smith & Wesson Model 500, but the in-game model has some incorrect features which include: the cylinder latch being too low, the barrel seems to be based on Taurus Tracker revolvers, minus the compensator ports, and finally the cylinder holds 6 shots instead of 5 (see image below), which is funny, because in-game it starts out with a 7 shot capacity.
Submachine Guns
FAMAE SAF
The FAMAE SAF is dubbed the "Submachine Gun" ingame. The weapon was modelled without any kind of stock. The real weapon on the other hand can be acquired, for example, with a folding stock or a fixed buttstock.
Assault Rifles
M4A1
An M4-like carbine appears ingame as the "Assault Rifle". The magazine capacity can be gradually upgraded from 20 to 30 rounds across 6 levels. The ingame version lacks a carry handle, has a free floating handguard and a tubular metal buttstock with cheek rest; it is not entirely clear if the buttstock incorporates the buffer tube or if the rifle is designed after an M4-like gas piston rifle or Airsoft gun without a buffer tube. Resembles highly the Brazilian IMBEL MB-2, a copy of the M4.
"Bull's Eye Assault Rifle"
A DLC weapon, the Bull's Eye features a scope for increased long-range effectiveness, and is restricted to semi-automatic fire. The weapon model appears to simply be the M4 model with "futuristic" embellishments added over the top of it, seemingly with the goal of making it (very slightly) resemble a Heckler & Koch XM8.
Sniper Rifles
FPK / PSL Sniper Rifle
A FPK / PSL Sniper Rifle with modified shoulder stock and synthetic foregrip appears as the "Sniper Rifle". Interestingly, enemy snipers are frequently seen using this weapon in conjunction with Laser Aiming Modules, which are never actually present on the rifles.
Shotguns
Sawn-Off Double Barrel Side-by-Side Shotgun
An unknown Sawn Off Double Barrel Shotgun is used by the Panauan Millitary, and can be seen in conjunction with the larger pump shotgun. For some odd reason, Rico and enemies are capable of firing three (!) shots from the gun before having to reload, despite the gun having only two barrels. Completely devastating at close range, especially when dual-wielded.
FN Tactical Police Shotgun
The 'pump shotgun' in the game is based off of an FN Tactical Police Shotgun, incorporating design cues from the Benelli M4 Super 90 as well. Found throughout Panau.
Machine Guns
FN M249
The M249 is called the "Machine Gun". Mounted on patrol boats and Jeeps, and also able to be picked up and hand-fired by Rico. The M249 and M134 Minigun share a mounting which includes an ammo box; this is not part of the weapon model, meaning that when carried the M249 has no ammunition drum. It also lacks a stock, but retains the mounting hinge point on the rear of the SAW.
Explosives
Type 97 hand grenade
The games resident fragmentation grenade. This appears to be a Type 97 hand grenade with a M26 fuze assembly and spoon.
Heavy Weaponry
M136 AT4
The M136 AT4 is called the "Rocket Launcher". Holds an unrealistic 3 rockets at upgrade level 1. "Baby" Panay carries an even more unrealistic version which is semi-automatic and never reloads.
GE M134 Minigun
The GE M134 can be found mounted in emplacements, on patrol boats and helicopters. It's most prominent appearance is during the mission "The White Tiger". The M134 in emplacements can be removed and carried around similar to the GE M134 handheld Minigun in Terminator 2. Although in Just Cause 2 the weapon retains it's spade grips along with the added pistol grip.
M202 FLASH Rocket Launcher
The M202 FLASH quad-barreled rocket launcher is a weapon contained in the 'Boom Pack' DLC. When fired, it fires one rocket at a time, to a maximum of 4 before reloading.
Standalone M203 Grenade Launcher
A fictional weapon called the 'Cluster Bomb Launcher' appears as part of the 'Boom Pack' DLC. it appears to be a magazine-fed M203 mounted on a stand alone frame unit. When fired, it fires several grenade-like projectiles that explode after a few seconds.
