These are the weapons which appeared in the video game adaptation of Quantum of Solace.
Glock 18
The automatic Glock pistol appears in the game as the GF18. This of course is a reference to the infamous film Goldfinger.
M1911
A silver-plated M1911 appears in the game as the CR1911. It is named after the 2006 Bond film Casino Royale, and is the main pistol of all other characters aside from Bond in the game. The M1911 has been used in many Bond films and games, starting with Dr. No in 1962.
M4 S-System
The M4 S-System appears in this game as the TND-16. It fires 5.56mm NATO ammunition and comes standard with a R.I.S.-styled rail handguard and pistol grip. It can be outfitted with a suppressor, a holographic red-dot sight and laser (in single player missions only). This weapon is named after the film Tomorrow Never Dies.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The Heckler & Koch MP5A3 appears as the SAF 9mm. It comes with tri-rail handguards and a forward pistol grip. The gun can also be modifed with an ARO red-dot scope and a suppressor, and a gold-plated version is available for multiplayer use.
Heckler & Koch UMP
The Heckler & Koch UMP makes an appearance in this game. It can be equipped with a suppressor and laser. It's called the SAF .45, even though it clearly has the curved magazine only present on the 9mm UMP. The UMP made several appearances in the film Casino Royale, and is prominent in promotional artwork for Quantum of Solace.
FN SCAR
The SCAR assault rifle system appears in the game as the MKIII LLD. The name of the weapon is a reference to Live and Let Die.
Steyr AUG
Apears in the game as the A3 Raker. It is only usable in two levels, Casino Royale and Eco Hotel. However, it is shown in an in-game cutscene during the Sienna level. It apears in multiplayer modes as the "A3 Recon". This weapon is named after the Moonraker film. Despite the A3 designation present in the in-game name, this AUG is actually an A1.
AK-74U
An AKS-74U makes an appearance in this game during the Madagascar and Barge stages. Called the FRWL in the game after the film From Russia with Love. The Kalashnikov series of rifles has been represented in a majority of Bond films and video games, the AKS-74U in particular was used in the movie Goldeneye and the infamous video game of the same name.
Calico
A Calico submachinegun is used in this game, appearing in the Science Centre and Bregenz stages. The name it is given is the TLD22, after the film The Living Daylights. Calicos were also used by Carver security guards in the Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.
M60 machine gun
The M60 light machinegun appears in the game as the 8-CAT. It is often found in hidden containers as a bonus for exploration. The weapon's name is of course a reference to the film Octopussy.
SVD Dragunov
The SVD appears in the game as the V-TAK. The name comes from the film A View To A Kill. It can be outfitted with a night-vision scope, laser and suppressor.
Walther WA 2000
The Walther WA2000 sniper rifle is used in this game, under its actual name. It is notable that all Walther firearms actually are referred to by their correct names in this game. The Walther WA2000 was previously used in the film The Living Daylights by Timothy Dalton during the pre-title sequence.
Milkor MGL
This grenade launcher appears in the game under the name of the D.A.D System, after the film Die Another Day. It appears in the Science Centre stage, and is notable as having one of the longest reload times in the game.
Walther P99
The Walther P99 appears in game as Bond's standard sidearm, using its correct name. It is a current-generation P99, instead of his usual 1st generation that he has carried since Tomorrow Never Dies. The gun fires 9x19mm Parabellum rounds and can be equipped with a suppressor. A gold-plated version is available in multiplayer. It is a goof that Bond doesnt use the PPK, which he does in QOS movie. This is likley due to the the fact that the games delvelopers only had the script and screenshots of the movie to work from.
M14
Auto Shotgun
Resembles a DAO-12, but is magazine fed. Referred to in-game as the A3 Hutchinson.
Other shotgun, pump action
Resembles something of a Benelli.
MAC-10
Referred to in-game as the Mantis. It can be uprgraded with a laser, and is one of the most common weapons in the game. MAC-10s are commonly used weapons in the Bond films and games.
S&W 686
This revolver is a Smith & Wesson Model 686, but it only holds 5 rounds, hinting that it shoots .500 S&W rounds.
Various grenade types
Nail Gun
This weapon is used during the Venice stage, where it is used to kill Gettler, similar to the film Casino Royale. In the XBOX 360 and PS3 versions of the game, the player is rewarded for shooting Gettler through his blackened lens, mirroring his death in the film.
Golden gun
A gold-plated Smith & Wesson 686. Unlike previous cinematic and viedo game Golden Guns, it is a revolver, not a single-action pistol. The Golden Gun in the novel The Man with The Golden Gun, was however a revolver, albeit a Colt SAA instead of a Smith & Wesson.
