Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
SIG-Sauer GSR
The SIG-Sauer GSR is the standard handgun of the PMCs in game. It can be found and used by the player in Act 1. (There is one time in Act I where it can be collected off of a dead Praying Mantis member; otherwise the player must disarm one of his primary weapon, allow him to switch to his pistol, then neutralize him to collect that pistol.)
Ruger Mk. II
An integrally suppressed Ruger Mk II Pistol that fires tranquilizer rounds and has a built-in visible laser is given to Solid Snake by Otacon early in the game.
Springfield Operator
The Springfield Operator is Solid Snake's handgun of choice. It is given to him (along with a Ruger Mk II Pistol) by Otacon early in Act I of the game.
- Note: This is the Lightweight Operator, and not the Champion as evidenced by its 5" barrel.
Custom M1911A1
Big Boss's M1911 used in Operation Snake Eater can unlocked via password; it is supposedly a custom version, but is actually based on a custom Airsoft gun made by Sheriff Co. of Japan. 1911s can also be seen in some of the PMC commercials.
Desert Eagle
The Desert Eagle is used by Meryl in the game. It can be purchased from Drebin. A long-barreled variant with a Scope can be unlocked, and is also used by Meryl. A bizarre glitch is that when Snake reloads the long-barrel Desert Eagle, rather than just holding a magazine he is holding an entire second gun in his other hand.
Heckler & Koch Mark 23 Mod 0
The Heckler & Koch Mk 23 Mod 0 can be found in the game in Act 4; its status as Solid Snake's previous handgun is noted. It is also used in the Raven Sword PMC commercial that is part of the game. Actually,Mk.23 handguns seen from the first MGS through the MGS4 is actually a Phase 2 model undergoing trials by U.S Navy at the time MGS were released to the market,as Metal Gear Wikia had suggested.They're noted from small cocking serrations on the front of the receiver,which the current production model Mod.0 do not have.

PSS
The PSS can be found in several areas throughout the game or bought from Drebin. It uses 6-round magazines with special "silent" 7.62x42mm ammunition, making it a lethal counterpart to the MK. 2 tranquilizer pistol (neither has a degradable suppressor).
FN Five seveN
The Five seveN can be purchased or taken off of FROGs (by the same method used for the GSR), and can be equipped with a flashlight.
Type 17

PP-19 Bizon
A 9x18mm SMG that uses a 64 round cylindrical magazine.
Patriot
Seen briefly at the end of the game. Can only be unlocked by attaining the Big Boss emblem. It's most notable trait is that it has unlimited ammo and never needs to be reloaded; it also plays part of the "Snake Eater" theme from Metal Gear Solid 3 when aimed.
Heckler & Koch G3A3
The Heckler & Koch G3A3 is seen in the hands of the rebel forces in the South America section of the game (Act 2). It can also be purchased via Drebin like most other firearms in the game.

FN SCAR-H
The FN SCAR-H, referred to as the MK. 17, is the standard assault rifle used by the PMC operatives in game. It can be found fairly early on in Act 1 (simply by killing, subduing, sedating, or disarming PMC troops)up to Act 3, and can be upgraded with optics, laser sight, flashlight and foregrips.

In the actual game, you can attach an Aimpoint red dot sight, ACOG scope, Surefire flashlight (modified to be completely useless; it literally flashes, only good to blind enemies at point-blank range rather than being for illumination), visible laser module, two types of vertical grip, Masterkey underbarrel shotgun, and an H&K M320 grenade launcher.
Heckler & Koch XM8
The Heckler & Koch XM8 is used by the Rat Patrol and other US troops in game, curiously still called XM8 even though it has obviously been formally adopted by the US military in Metal Gear Solid 4's world. It can be found by the player in secluded area in Act 2. It comes with a built in scope and can be equipped with an M320 grenade launcher. Meryl's team apparently have different versions of the rifle. Johnny had the shorty one, Johnathan with the standard one and grenade launcher combo, and Ed has the marksman variant.
Heckler & Koch HK21E
The Heckler & Koch HK21E is seen in the hands of a rebel militiaman in the early portion of the Middle East section of the game (Act 1). In a conversation that can be overheard if the player remains hidden, he claims that it is an enemy gun, yet strangely none of the PMC troopers in the level are seen using it. It can also be purchased via Drebin like most other firearms.

Heckler & Koch XM25
A semi-automatic grenade launcher chambered in 25mm, it fires airbursting HEAB rounds, which function rather like the PK rockets in Battlefield 2142; while the weapon is held normally they are simply impact detonated, but scoping shows a display with an always-on rangefinder. Pressing up or down on the D-pad freezes at the currently displayed range, with further presses adjusting the detonation distance up or down. It can be found on the catwalk of one of the control towers in Act 4, and is the only heavy weapon usable during the motorcycle chase in Act 3.
FGM-148 Javelin
The FGM-148 Javelin is found in Act 1 and can be purchased from Drebin. It is erroneously shown as a laser-guided device requiring full-course guidance by the operator, with Snake discarding the entire launcher after every shot and pulling out a fresh one; it also cannot be used in top-attack mode by the player. However, a group of hidden PMC soldiers during Act 1 will fire missiles in this mode at a rebel BMP-3 IFV if the player protects it for long enough from others firing Javelins in direct-fire mode.
FIM-92 Stinger
The FIM-92 Stinger can be purchased from Drebin.

Fortune's Rail Gun
The rail gun was used by Crying Wolf in Act 4.It can also be obtained after defeating her.It is the same weapon that was used by Fortune in MGS2.
Non-player Weapons
An IMI Uzi, an AKS-74U, and an unsuppressed Ruger pisol are all used in the PMC advertisements at the start of the game. The FAMAS F1 is used by the Genome soldiers and Meryl in the MGS1 flashbacks.
