Dirty Bomb is a free-to-play mutliplayer first-person shooter developed by Splash Damage, creators of Brink and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. The game features multiple classes, also known as mercs, each with their own abilities, while the arsenal available to individual mercs are selected from a common pool, and come in individual sets known as loadout cards.
Gameplay-wise, the game is on the arcadey side, with very little weapon spread even when running. It is possible to aim down the iron sights, but doing so restricts the player to walking, making them a very easy target in such a fast-paced game.
Most weapons in the game are based on real firearms, with stylized appearances, fictional markings and names.
The following weapons appear in the video game Dirty Bomb:
The "Blishlok" is a cross between a KRISS Vector and an M1A1 Thompson. Its name is a reference to the Blish Lock, a system used in earlier Thompson models (though not the M1 or M1A1, as it was discovered that the system didn't actually work).

The markings on the side of the receiver read, "BLD MFG CORPORATION US SMG", "CALIBRE 45 ACP", 07146ES57", and "ML192213". Underneath that is a sliding selector, which is oddly marked "FIRE" at one end and "SAFE/SINGLE" at the other. "071464557" is written on the back of the receiver, there is a sticker on the magwell that has "10M" written on it backwards, and there is something indecipherable written on the magazine.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe other side, which shows that the "10M" sticker is placed correctly here. This also gives a better view of what seems to be a Vector's bolt release placed directly above the magwell (on both sides of the weapon), and that the Blishlok, unlike the Thompson but like the Vector, uses a closed-bolt operating system.
Brügger & Thomet MP9
The Empire-9 is based on the Brügger & Thomet MP9. Its name rather obliquely references the real gun's name (Empire-9).
The Timik-47 is based on the Arsenal AR, fitted with picatinny rails and an AK-74 styled muzzle brake. It also has a custom ergonomic grip visible on its weapon art but is barely visible in-game.
The BR-16 is based on the H&K HK416, fitted with handguard padding and folding sights. It only fires in three-round burst mode.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingHeckler & Koch HK416 with 14.5 inch barrel - 5.56x45mm. The weapon here is one of the earliest production models, featuring the standard M4 6-position "LE"-style stock.Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn-dev render of the weapon "BR-16". This is presumably the weapon's "base" weapon finish. Also note the optics and magnifiers, currently absent in-game. Image copyright: Ben Garnell, Nexon, Splash Damage, 2015.Error creating thumbnail: File missingSkyhammer holds the "BR-16" in the loadout screen. As of currently (January 2018), the weapon does not come default on any merc, and only appears in some alternate loadout cards, which means that it always comes with a weapon finish.Error creating thumbnail: File missingHolding the "BF-16". Note the extended charging handle tab and "SrNo: 32320923".Error creating thumbnail: File missingInspecting the BF-16. The selector is set to where semi-auto would be on a normal HK416, but the one in-game has an "A" there and a "1" where full-auto would normally be, so it's not necessarily incorrect. The upper receiver's markings read "MADE IN [illegible]" under the rear sight, "ATR-3", ""BLD-KRV SWE", and "5.56mmX45" written on the upper receiver, and the markings around the magwell read, top to bottom, "FNL SER-A", "BLD", and "Licensed by BLD-KRV".Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe other side. "FOR MILITARY USE ONLY" is written on the magazine well. Also note that the dust-cover incorrectly stays shut at all times; it should flip down the first time the bolt comes back.
The KEK-10 is based on the PTR 32P PDW R. It appears to be somewhat of a hybrid with other G3 carbine variants, featuring automatic fire, a three-position selector, and a sliding stock.
The SHAR-C is a fictional assault rifle with a design resembling a mutant version of the FN SCAR-H, with its name being derived by swapping "C" and "H".

There are a few things to point out here: the fire selector is set to the middle of 3 positions (none of which are marked), the bolt release and magazine release seem to have swapped either places or button designs (assuming the former, the magazine release would be plausible, if a bit awkward, but the bolt release would be far too low to actually work), and there is a sling hook in about the least useful position possible.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe right side, showing that the rifle does at least have ambidextrous controls and a brass deflector.
Steyr AUG A1
The Stark AR is based on the Steyr AUG A1, and only fires in three-round burst.
Despite the name implying it to be an FN Mk 46 Mod 1, the "MK46" is actually an FN M249 Paratrooper SAW with a solid stock and upper handguard, as evidenced by the presence of a diagonal STANAG magazine well, which the Mk 46 lacks.
Rhino's special ability is the ability to use a handheld rotatory machine gun with three barrels called "Minigun". It seems to be a mix of a General Dynamics GAU-19/A with some M134 Minigun parts.
The Remburg 7 is based on the Smith & Wesson 3000 with a foregrip, shortened barrel, a weird-looking heat shield, a rail system, and a folding stock. Its name is a portmanteau of Remington and Mossberg.
The MOA SNPR-1 is based on the Bohica Arms FAR-50 MK-III, with a side-mounted 6-round magazine rather like that of a Tactilite T2, both being .50 BMG conversions for AR-15-pattern rifles. The "MOA" in the name references the term Minutes of Angle, a measurement of accuracy commonly quoted when referring to the accuracy of sniper rifles.
Javelin's (the merc) Rocket Launcher appears to be based off of the M72 LAW. It can switch between direct-fire mode and laser-guided homing mode.
On the ArtStation of weapon artist Ben Garnell, an in-dev render of a similar but green rocket launcher based on the LAW can be seen. It is used by Javelin in some promotional materials.

It's not clear what use the front sight is; there isn't anything to line it up with, and several parts of the launcher block a clear view of it. Javelin doesn't use it in gameplay either (i.e. no aiming down sights for the rocket launcher).
Milkor MGL
Nader's Lactic-40 is based off of the Milkor MGL, its name a pun on Milkor. It fires timer-detonated rounds and oddly holds 5 rounds at max. There is no reload animation as the rounds simply recharge on a timer.
