The following weapons appear in the video game Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes:
Beretta 92FS
Snake carries a modified Beretta 92FS [stated to be an M9] that serves as a special tranquilizer gun. It comes with a suppressor and a laser sight. Snake must cock the gun manually after every shot. Genome soldiers with riot shields use the standard version of this gun.
H&K Mk 23 Mod 0
The H&K Mk 23 Mod 0 is Solid Snake's weapon of choice throughout the game. It comes with a LAM unit and can accept a suppressor.
FAMAS G2
The FAMAS rifle is the standard issue weapon of the Genome Army. It comes equipped with a laser sight. The Genome soldiers in the Warhead Storage Building have underbarrel M203 grenade launchers attached. These launchers are loaded with non-lethal ring airfoil projectiles; this replaces them simply using bullets in the original game, causing radiation leaks that resulted in unavoidable death if they fired even a single shot. Solid Snake, Meryl, and Liquid Snake also use the FAMAS.
Desert Eagle
The Desert Eagle appears in the game as Meryl's weapon of choice.
Colt Single Action Army
The Colt Single Action Army appears as Revolver Ocelot's weapon of choice; he has the ability to precisely bounce shots off multiple walls to hit targets in cover with it. He refers to it as "the greatest handgun ever made," and enjoys reloading it just a little too much.
Nikita
Remote controlled missile launcher. Used by Solid Snake.
H&K PSG-1
The Heckler & Koch PSG-1 sniper rifle is used by Solid Snake and Sniper Wolf. A tranquilizer variant is available as the PSG-1T.
FIM-92A Stinger
The FIM-92A Stinger surface-to-air missile launcher capable of locking on to various targets. Used by Solid Snake.
M61A1 Vulcan Cannon
When encountered for the second time, instead of a tank Vulcan Raven attacks Snake with a hand-held M61 Vulcan rotary gun with a chainsaw grip clearly inspired by the minigun in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The M61A1 is supposedly taken from a crashed F16; he wears the ammo drum as a backpack, but it isn't explained precisely what's supposed to be powering it.
Mk 2 hand grenade
The Mk 2 hand grenade is used by the Genome Soldiers, resulting in Snake's infamously silly line that "They're armed with five five sixers and pineapples."
M18A1 Claymore
The M18A1 Claymore mine is used against Solid Snake. The player can add it to his inventory by crawling over it.
M60
The M60 was shown during Snake's escape.
Browning M2HB and M240 Machine gun
Unlike the original game where Vulcan Raven's M1A1 Abrams was depicted with M2s on both the commander's and loader's hatches, in Twin Snakes it is correctly shown with an M240 on the loader's hatch and a Browning M2 on the commander's hatch. It's easy to see the Abrams is an M1A1 due to the lack of the A2 package's Commander's Independant Sight [CIS, also CITV for "Commander's Independant Thermal Viewer"] ahead of the loader's hatch.
