...so it's clearly meant to be an A4, though the presence of what I ''think'' might be a "read instruction manual before use" marking behind that and the lack of a third pin hole tell me that this was probably referenced off of a civvie AR instead. I'm not sure about the Mk 14; the stock looks the part, but the barrel and gas tube are off, and the description and "US RIFLE / CAL .30 M1" marking make me think that they were going for a plasma conversion of an M1 Garand - maybe we could say it's a hybrid, or perhaps a Garand in a Crane stock (which, unfortunately enough, [https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/sag_ebr_stock-tfb.jpg is a thing]) or something of that sort. Regarding the plasma weapons, looking back to the movies helps - I know that the Endo Battle Rifle is based on a Calico, the RBS-80 on a Browning M2, and I'm pretty sure that the V-25 is based on the Muzzelite-stocked Mini-14s seen in ''Judgement Day''.

:Okay, so can we safely say that the M1911 in this game looks most like the [[Auto-Ordnance M1911A1]]? And can we now conclusively label the M16 Rifle in this game as an M16A4 just with erroneous fire selector markings and full-auto capability? What about the Plasma TC16/TC30? Are the barrel and gas tube from an M1 Garand? The Plasma TC16/30 can reload from a detachable box magazine, while the M1 Garand could only load from en-bloc clips, so I'm not sure how much of that Phased Plasma gun is derived from the Garand. The "US RIFLE / CAL .30 M1" markings made me think of a Springfield Armory, Inc. M1A rifle first. I think the Muzzlelite MZ14 does look like the V-25, down to the useless front sight too. --[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 11:44, 5 May 2020 (EDT) | :Okay, so can we safely say that the M1911 in this game looks most like the [[Auto-Ordnance M1911A1]], but with an aftermarket rear sight and a stock front sight (which would explain the odd two-dot arrangement)?

Revision as of 15:47, 5 May 2020
Some references to the first two Terminator films in the game
The developers of this game were clearly Terminator fans through and through, and it shows in how many references to the first two films they put in the game, some of which are shown below.

In any case, fans of the first two films in the series should check out the game. It's an unpolished gem to be found amongst many disastrous movie tie-in games to be found throughout gaming history. --Mazryonh (talk) 19:44, 4 May 2020 (EDT)
Page Essentially Complete
Okay, this page is more or less done. I would like some help with identifying the exact type of M1911 used in the game, as well as confirmation on whether the M14-style rifle is in fact based on a Mk 14 Mod 0. Also, I would like to know whether or not it's a good idea to label the M16 Rifle in this game as an M16A4, just with a retractable buttstock and a full-auto lower. Determining whether or not the currently-unidentified Phased Plasma weapons in this game are actually based on real-life firearm designs would also be appreciated. --Mazryonh (talk) 20:01, 4 May 2020 (EDT)

- Regarding the M1911, there's this shot here...

...which shows that it's the exact same model used in H3VR and Freeman: Guerrilla Warfare - the "HEDEN GUN CO. INC" marking on the slide is clearly visible. As for what exact type it is, I'm not sure, though the slanted cocking serrations have me thinking that it's an Auto-Ordnance with aftermarket sights. The M16 is, as you said, an M16A4 with an M4-style stock, though it being full-auto is more an inaccuracy than a lower swap; the lower receiver is marked "PROPERTY / OF US GOVT / M16A4 / CAL 5.56MM / (serial number)", as seen here...

Discussion
I don't know what it is connected with, but "Remington 870" suspiciously reminds Baikal MP-133. --Slon95 (talk) 19:21, 25 April 2020 (EDT)
