Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is an open-world third-person shooter video game developed by the now defunct Pandemic Studios (known for games like Full Spectrum Warrior or The Saboteur). It is a sequel to Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction. The game takes place in the war-torn Venezuela. The player assumes the role of a betrayed mercenary trying to get revenge on his/her employers after a set up.
The game was released by Electronic Arts in 2008 for the PC, Xbox 360, PS2 and PS3 platforms.
The following weapons appear in the video game Mercenaries 2: World in Flames:
Handguns
Colt M1911A1
An M1911A1 pistol is engraved on Blanco's belt's plate.
IMI/Magnum Desert Eagle Mark XIX
Jamaican Pirates are using Desert Eagle Mark XIX pistols. It incorrectly holds 15 rounds and, strangely, its performance is identical to the P226's.
Luger P08 Artillery
A Luger P08 Artillery is used by General Carmona in several cutscenes. This weapon is not usable by the player.
SIG-Sauer P226
The SIG-Sauer P226 is used by all factions. The suppressed version has only a 12-round magazine capacity. Appears simply as "Pistol" in the game.
Smith & Wesson Model 500
Blanco carries a Smith & Wesson Model 500 with wooden grips. Can be obtained by the player after killing Blanco. Also can be obtained by players in "Blanco's Favorites" supply drop with cheats. Very powerful, often a one hit kill.
Submachine Guns
Chang Feng CF-05
An early version of the Chang Feng CF-05 SMG is carried by Chinese sailors and officers, as well as tank drivers and rocket carrying troops.
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
The internally-suppressed Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 is one of the many purchasable Supply Drops in the game (Known as "Covert Kit")
IMI Micro Uzi
The Micro Uzi appears as "Machine Pistol" in the game and has incorrect 45-round capacity. This is one of the submachine guns used by the Pirate faction in the game, also used by some VZ HVTs. Identical to the MAC-10 save for it's appearance.
Ingram MAC-10
The Ingram MAC-10 is one of the submachine guns used by the Pirate faction in the game. Has a 45-round magazine and high rate of fire.
KBP Instrument Design Bureau PP-2000
The PP-2000 has a good stopping power, can be obtained by the player by completing Level 2 of one of Fiona's challenges at the PMC. Can be found under "Fiona's Favorites" in the supply drop list. Called "PDW" in the game.
Shotgun
Benelli M4 Super 90
The Benelli M4 Super 90 shotgun is used by Pirates and the PLAV, and VZ officers. Can be purchased via the "CQB Kit". Holds 7 shells. A pumping sound is heard between shots, even though no pumping animation occurs.
Assault Rifles
AK-47
Silhouette of an AK-47 is seen on the main menu background. The AK-47 is also used on HUD and pick-up icons of the other two Kalashnikov rifles, the AKM and the AK-103.
AK-103
As in real life, the Venezuelan (VZ) military faction in the game uses AK-103 rifles. It correctly shares ammunition with the AKM. It is slightly more accurate than the AKM, but the player can carry less extra ammo for it.
AKM
The AKM is the standard issue weapon of the People's Liberation Army of Venezuela faction, and also it can be seen being used by the Pirate faction.
Colt M4A1
The M4A1 Carbine is the standard issue weapon of the Universal Petroleum mercenaries and can be seen being carried by Allied Nations medics also. The model of the M4A1 lacks the rear sight, yet still, it has good accuracy. A total of 12 magazines can be carried for the M4A1.
THIS IS A PHOTOSHOP IMAGE.
Heckler & Koch XM8
The Heckler & Koch XM8 is the standard issue weapon of the Allied Nations faction in the game. Known as "Combat Rifle". The rifle has a 40 round magazine in game, despite only having 30 round capacity in reality.
Norinco QBZ-95
The Norinco QBZ-95 is the standard issue weapon of the Chinese faction. Called simply "Bullpup Rifle" in the game.
Machine Guns
FN M249
The M249 is used by UP mercenaries and AN soldiers. In-game, its bipod is unfolded and is fitted with a heat-shield. Only holds 100 rounds despite being fitted with the 200-round belt box.
Norinco QJY-88
The QJY-88 machine gun is used by the PLA. Has exactly the same stats as the RPK, but a glitch allows it to shoot a virtually straight stream of bullets, giving it amazing accuracy.
RPK
RPKs with 75-round drum magazines are used by the PLAV and VZ factions. It appears as "Automatic Rifle" in the game.
Sniper Rifles
Barrett M95
The Barrett M95 is available through the .50 Cal Anti-Material Rifle Kit from the AN. For some reason, it fires in semi-auto instead of being bolt-action.
KSVK
The KSVK is available through the 12.7mm Anti-Material Rifle Kit from the PLA. Statistically identical to the Barrett M95.
Norinco QBU-88
The QBU-88 is used by the PLA faction of the game. Statistically identical to the SVD.
SVD Dragunov
The SVD Dragunov is used by the PLAV, VZ forces and UP mercenaries. A glitch in the game occasionally makes the characters hold it like a pistol.
Launchers
FIM-92A Stinger
The FIM-92A Stinger is a powerful weapon that is used by all factions. Has both free-fire and lock-on firing modes. Known as the "Anti-Air Launcher" in the game.
Milkor MGL-140
The Milkor MGL-140 grenade launcher seen in the hands of UP Mercenaries and attained via the "Grenade Launcher Drop". It appears that the reload animation of the launcher was recycled from the M4 Super 90's, because the characters do not open the cylinder, but insert the grenades as if it had a tubular magazine.
Mk 153 Mod 0 "SMAW"
The Mk 153 Mod 0 SMAW is known as the "Anti-Tank Launcher" and is used by Allied troops.
PF-97
Chinese copy of the RPO-A thermobaric rocket launcher. Known as the "Fuel-Air RPG" and used by PLA troops. Possibly the most powerful rocket-launcher in the game. Capable of destroying most buildings and all tanks with one hit.
RPG-7
The RPG-7 is used by the PLAV, VZ, UP and the Pirate faction. This is a simple rocket launcher that can be purchased in the "RPG Drop".
Emplaced Weapons
Browning M2

Recoilless Rifle
A mounted semi-automatic cannon. Seen around numerous faction sandbags and bunkers.
Explosives
M34 White Phosphorous grenade
The M34 White Phosphorous grenade is used as a smoke grenade in the game. It is used to designate targets for the friendly helicopter, or mark airstrike targets.
M61 Frag Grenade
The M61 Frag Grenade is used by all factions, the player's character can hold 9 grenades in total. A note of interest is that the HUD icon of the M61 is the M67, while the pick-up icon is an Mk 2 grenade.
M67 Hand Grenade
Silhouette of an M67 hand grenade appears on the screen each time the player unlocks a new item for purchase.
Mk 2 Frag Grenade
After starting the game, several Mk 2 hand grenades fall down, and when they explode, they form Pandemic Studio's logo.
C4 Plastic Explosive
Used by the player only, the player can hold 5 in total, can be thrown to stick to any surface and then detonated.
