The Saboteur is a 2009 action-adventure developed by the now closed Pandemic Studios, published by Electronic Arts, about an Irish race driver turned saboteur who tries to avenge the death of his best friend in Nazi-occupied France by killing the man responsible, demolishing as much of the Third Reich's hardware as possible in the process.
The following weapons appear in the video game The Saboteur:
Handguns
Unidentified .44 Magnum Revolver
Appears as the ".44 pistol". Strangely, it uses the same ammo as both the Kruger and the Raum pistols. It is a 1 hit kill weapon. Sean calls it a "Yankee Hand Cannon" and "One shot will turn the Krauts insides into Shepherd's pie. But watch out. She's a bitch to reload". This weapon is anachronistic due to the .44 Magnum round not being invented until the 1950s.
Beretta M1934
A Beretta Model 1934 is shown on the picture for the "Uprising" upgrade that can be bought at gunshops.
Luger P08
Appears as the "Kruger pistol". Uses pistol ammo. Dierker, the main villain, uses a modified version called the "Executioner pistol". It has a brass-knuckles-like finger guard and fires fully automatic; it's Dierker's weapon of choice and can be obtained by killing him, or be bought from any Weapons Dealer after the game is finished. It, too, uses pistol ammo and is able to take out pretty much any human enemy in one shot.
Mauser C96 "Red 9"
Appears as the "Raum pistol". Uses pistol ammo, explained by it being a Red 9 (9mm version), though that is never mentioned.
Walther PPK
Appears as the "Silenced pistol". The silencer and the weapon description stating that this weapon was popular among British spies is obviously a reference to James Bond. Uses silenced pistol ammo.
Walther P38
Also seen on the picture for the "Uprising" upgrade.
Submachine Guns
Thompson Submachine Gun
Appears as the "Tommy-MG". Mostly found in supply crates and used by high level Résistance members. Uses machine gun ammo.
Sten Mk. 2
Silenced Sten Mk. 2. Appears as the "Viper SMG". Uses silenced machine gun ammo.
Rifles
MP40
Appears as the "MP40". Uses machine gun ammo. Sean says it 'is as common as hookers in Paris, and seen about as much action'
Sturmgewehr 44
Appears as the "MP44 MG". Shares the ammo with the MP40, which is definitely unrealistic. The first appearance in the game took place during the Battle of France in 1940, a full 2 years before it was widely distributed to German troops.
Unknown hunting rifle
Appears as the "Hunting rifle". Uses rifle ammo.
Could be the Lebel or Berthier.
Karabiner 98k
Appears as the "Carbine". A scoped version is available. The normal (unscoped) version uses rifle ammo, the scoped version uses sniper rifle ammo.
Gewehr 43
Appears as the "Steiner rifle". A scoped version is available. Has an incorrect 5 round magazine.
Terror sniper rifle
A kind of semi-automatic shotgun sniper rifle. Despite labelled as a "Terror" weapon, it is never actually used by Terror troops. Uses Terror rifle ammo.
Vaguely resembles US Pedersen Rifle.
Terror MP60
A fictional automatic weapons used by the "Terror troops", german elite soldiers. Despite being labelled as an "MP" (Maschinenpistole/Submachine gun), it rather resembles a light machine gun. Uses Terror MG ammo.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
Appears as the "Double barreled shotgun". Uses shotgun ammo.
Remington 870 shotgun
Appears as the "Trench gun". This is both anachronistic because the 870 would not be invented until 1950 and unrealistic because the German military had always detested the use of shotgun in warfare. The name Trench Gun is a nickname for the Winchester 1897 that was modified for US military use during WWI and WWII.
Terror Shotgun
An automatic shotgun, resembling the AA-12 and other modern combat shotguns. Another fictional weapon used by the "Terror troops". Uses Terror shotgun ammo.
Heavy Weapons
Panzerfaust
Appears as the "Siegfaust II". Uses Siegfaust ammo.
Panzerschreck
Appears as the "Panzerschreck". Uses Panzerschreck ammo
