Carnivores Ice Age is the third game in the Carnivores franchise, having been released in 2001. Unlike the previous and later titles, where players duked it out with dinosaurs, Ice Age takes players to the dinosaur planet's polar caps, where they can hunt woolly mammoths, mega sized deer, and saber-toothed cats. It featured an advanced version of the Carnivores 2 engine, which allowed advanced particle effects, such as snowfall. Carnivores Triassic, a fan made entry for the franchise, also features the Ice Age engine.
The following weapons appear in the video game Carnivores Ice Age:
Pistols
Browning BDA
A pistol that weakly resembles a Browning BDA (judging by the slide and overall shape) appears, much in the same way that it did in Carnivores 2. No changes have been made to it, but it can seem weaker in comparison as there are less weaker animals to hunt this time around.
Shotguns
Remington 870
What looks like a Remington 870 MCS Entry shotgun appears again as the game's shotgun. It's capable of firing buckshot (referred to as "buck-shot bullets" ingame), and the weapon maintains some usefulness even at long range. The 870 is loaded via a seven-round magazine which, for some very odd reason, is loaded directly, and entirely, into the magazine tube. Coincidentally, conversions kits exist that can turn the 870 into a magazine fed weapon, but the magazine doesn't go there.
Double Barreled Shotgun
A somewhat generic Double Barreled Shotgun appears in the game with what appears to be a mix of wooden and synthetic furniture. According to the gun's description, the shotgun is so loud that it can even scare certain carnivores away, such as the wolf. The shotgun best resembles a Stoeger/IGA Coach gun.
Some kind of generic Sawed Off Double Barreled Shotgun appears in the hands of poachers, enemies who were cut from the final release of the game.
KS-23
A weapon that appears to be similar to a Russian KS-23 appears in the game, called the 'Rifle.' In a way, this makes sense as KS-23 has a rifled barrel. Other than that, the weapon is treated as a hunting rifle, and not as a shotgun. The KS-23 is fed via a tiny magazine that is inserted straight into the handguard. A KS-23 with a longer barrel (compared to the non-scoped variant; the sniper variant seems to have the correct barrel length) and no ring sight is used as the select screen image of the 'Sniper Rifle,' although no actual ingame model for the scoped KS-23 exists. However, unlike the previous game, there is sno scope to look through. All you're given is a green crosshair.
Other
X-Bow
Though not a firearm, the ever important X-Bow appears once again in the franchise. It seems a bit more powerful, and is useful for taking out low level trophy animals.
