Handguns
Walther P38
The Walther P38 is the standart pistol of the German forces. It has got black grips and a silver finish. Unpatched, it is also the standard handgun of the Imperial Japanese Army, despite Japan never issuing it to their forces. Statistically, it is identical to the Colt in all respects.
M1911
The M1911 (just referred as "Colt") is the standart sidearm for all Allied forces. It is highly incorrect, shown as a double-action handgun, and firing from an eight round magazine. While this would be possible when reloading with a round in the chamber, the player pulls back the slide whenever a reload is initiated. This is because it is just a reskin of the game's other handgun, inflicting the same damage, having the same capacity and rate of fire, and being just as accurate.
Shotguns
Browning Automatic 5
Introduced in the expansion pack Secret Weapons of WWII, the Browning Automatic 5 is issued to the SAS Engineer class as the A5. It is the first shotgun in the series, and is extremely lethal in close quarters. Due to the game not having the ability to keep tracking individual shells (as the only other internally fed weapons are bolt action snipers with stripper clips), the A-5 has an extremely odd reload, wherein the player awkwardly tilts the weapon, apparently inserts a few shells, then pulls the charging lever; ammo is represented in full magazines, as it is for all other guns, and reloading from a non-empty magazine will result in lost shells.
The A5 is the most powerful close quarters weapon in the game, and is surprisingly lethal at range as well, often lethal from the chest up even at medium range.
