Overview
Escape from Tarkov is a first-person shooter video game by BattleState Games. The game is set in the same Russia 2028 universe as Contract Wars. The game features a highly detailed and realistic combat system, with subsystem damage, realistic weapon handling, a complex array of tactical maneuvers like leaning, and an equally detailed weapon modification system.
The following weapons are used in the video game Escape from Tarkov:
Every variant of the Chiappa Rhino has been shown in pre-release renders, but has not yet been added in any of the released versions of the game.
Makarov 6P9 PB
The Makarov 6P9 PB variant of the Makarov is available in the game. It spawns rarely on Scavengers and can be traded for bartering items by the Trader Prapor. Like the Makarov PM, only its grip and magazines can be removed. An 80 round drum magazine can also be attached to the weapon, however its exceedingly rare.
Makarov PM
The Makarov PM is a fairly common pistol in EFT. PMC's will have a few available in their stash and the weapon is fairly common loot in Military Cargo crates, Scavengers both Player and AI NPC's may occassionally use a Makarov PM as their starting weapon. A special variant exists in-game called the PM (t) which has a threaded barrel to accept sound suppressors. Currently only the grip and magazine can be removed from the weapon and an 80 round drum magazine is also available, albiet extremely rare.
MP-443 Grach
The MP-443 Grach fills the role of a higher-end pistol found uncommonly in the game. The Russian BEAR's faction will give PMC's the pistol in their stash in the latest patch when chosen. Scav's can also spawn with the pistol as well with a few magazines on hand, on occassion a Scav may have their Grach equipped with an under-barrel weaponlight. Currently the weapon cannot be suppressed but it can accept attachments via its underbarrel rail and can be outfitted with a slide rail for attaching reflex optics.
SIG-Sauer P226R
The SIG-Sauer P226R is the only non-Russian pistol available in the game so far primarily issued to the USEC Faction of which PMC's will get some in their stash when the faction is chosen. The weapon also is available for Scavengers albiet sometimes missing its front and rear sight and rarely equipped with an underbarrel weaponlight.
Tokarev TT-33
The Tokarev TT-33 is a dated, but viable pistol available in the game. It is infrequently carried by AI Scav's in-game and is a rare spawn for Player Scav's. Currently the TT-33 is the only weapon to utilise the 7,62x25mm round of which 7 types are available. Currently it is the most powerful pistol, dropping a PMC or Scav in about two or three shots without armor depending on the round type. Additionally the TT-33 can be outfitted with a "home-spun" threaded barrel and an home-made suppressor, making it one of the earliest and most cost effective suppressed pistols currently in the game.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5
The H&K MP5 is available in the game. Currently it is not used by any Scavengers and only acquired by PMC's via the trader "Peacekeeper" once sufficent reputation has been gained. The version featured in-game appears to be either an A4 or an A5 model due to the four position fire selector but is described in-game as being a Navy Model. It comes available in two variants initially, an MP5A4 and an MP5SD5 both of which are fitted with fixed stocks and only differing slightly in price value. Players can customize the MP5 extensively by removing the Fixed Stock for a collapsible Stock however it cannot currently mount under-barrel attachments such as flashlights or grips.
Izhmash PP-19-01 Vityaz
The Izhmash PP-19-01 Vityaz. Currently it is not used by Scavengers and only acquired by PMC's from purchasing it from the Trader Prapor at level 1 reputation. Currently the weapon is the cheapest of the SMG's and the earliest the player can modify extensively. In the current patch, changes were made to address the weapons viscious recoil whch has been rectified.
Izhmash PP-91 "Kedr"
The Izhmash PP-91 "Kedr". There are two variants in-game, the standard "Kedr" and the "Kedr-B". The "B" variant features a threaded barrel to accept sound suppressors and other muzzle devices. Currently the "Kedr" is infrequently used by AI Scav's in world and can be bought by the Trader Prapor, the "Kedr-B" can be traded with Prapor for various barting items. Currently the "Kedr" is the most powerful of the SMG's for two reasons, it has the fastest rate of fire at 900 RPM and can utilise various 9x18mm Hollow Point or Armor Peircing ammunition. The weapon can be outfitted with sight rails and can utilise 20 round or 30 round stick magaiznes.
Izhmash PP-9 "Klin"
The Izhmash PP-9 "Klin". It is a special variant available and is a very rare spawn for AI Scavengers and can be traded with Prapor. It has slightly different recoil patterns than the "Kedr" but can utilise the same attachments and magazines.
SIG-Sauer MPX
The SIG-Sauer MPX. It is only available for use by PMC's and can bought by the trader Peacekeeper. It is the most versatile of the SMG's and features two variants like the MP5, a standard variant and another variant with an Integral suppressor. It is the second fast firing SMG at 850 RPM and can attach the most attachments compared to the MP5.
