Hunt: Showdown is an upcoming survival horror video game in development and to be published by Crytek. The game was originally in development at Crytek USA, who wished to create a spiritual successor to Darksiders—a video game series developed by their predecessor, Vigil Games—under the title Hunt: Horrors of the Gilded Age. After the initial announcement in June 2014, Crytek USA was shut down due to financial issues, and the development was brought to the Crytek headquarters. The game, under the new title Hunt: Showdown, was re-announced in May 2017. Hunt: Showdown was launched on Steam in early access on February 22, 2018.
The game is set in a supernatural late 19th century, where bounty hunters enter the Louisiana swampland to hunt down dangerous monsters and collect their bounty. The game is PvPvE, with players fighting AI monsters to claim bounties and also fighting each other to take over others' bounties.
The following guns are seen in the early access version Hunt: Showdown:
The Colt Open Top revolver appears as the "Caldwell Conversion Pistol". Although it has the overall appearance of an Open Top, it has an octagonal barrel like a Colt 1851 Navy Conversion, and the cylinder and loading gate are both very similar to the Single Action Army. There are a couple variants of the gun, including one that replaces the cylinder with a system of chained-together chambers, in a manner rather similar to the Treeby Chain Gun or the Josselyn chain revolver known in-game as the "Conversion Chain Pistol".

The ejector rod is never touched, with the casings simply falling out on their own; this is incorrect, as brass cases expand in their chambers upon firing, which necessitates the use of additional force to remove them (hence the ejector rod being there in the first place). Also note that the hammer is cocked, which would realistically render the cylinder unable to rotate- in reality, the hammer must instead be placed into the half-cock position to allow it to spin freely.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA hunter holds the "Chain Pistol" on an Armored enemy before showing it how 17 rounds of .44RF feel.
Colt Walker Cartridge Conversion
Another variant of the "Caldwell Conversion Pistol", called the "Caldwell Conversion Uppercut", takes the standard revolver and enlarges it to use rifle cartridges, with the resultant weapon resembling a cartridge conversion of a Colt Walker.
The Russian Nagant M1895 revolver under its real name. It is tied with the Winchester Model 1873 for the most variants of any weapon in the game: the base Nagant, the "Silencer" variant, which is the only silenced pistol in the game, the "Precision" variant, which adds a shoulder stock-holster (taken from the Colt Army Special revolver), the "Deadeye" variant, which improves upon the Precision variant by adding a scope, and three double-action variants, accurately named "Officer" - the base Officer model, the "Brawler" variant with an integrated knuckle duster, and the "Carbine" variant with stock and extended barrel.
The Sharps Pepperbox appears as the "Quad Derringer", which is a tool rather than a firearm, allowing a character to bring one along with other weapons.
The German Mauser C96 appears as the "Dolch 96", the only other version is the "Dolch 96 Precision" variant which adds the C96 shoulder stock.

As with Battlefield 1, the individual round reload is a gameplay artistic liberty; the C96 is nearly impossible to reload mid-magazine in reality, since it uses the magazine guide as its bolt hold open, meaning that its bolt cannot lock back mid-magazine for topping off.
Bergmann 1896
The Bergmann 1896 was added to the game in Update 5.0 as the "Bornheim No. 3". The game depicts the en-bloc clip used on the Bergmann 1896; a partial reload has the hunter putting individual rounds into the magazine, while an empty reload will have the hunter replace the en-bloc clip. There is also an "Extended" version with an 8 shot magazine, although this can only be fed by single rounds.
Of note is that the weapon is one of the few weapons capable of being affected by the "Bulletgrubber" trait, which recovers rounds ejected (when opening the action) in partial reloads.

Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III*
The "Flare Pistol" is a Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III*, albeit with a somewhat strange hexagonal chamber profile rather than the real flare gun's round one. Gameplay-wise, it is classified as a "Tool" rather than a weapon, and is primarily used to provide illumination in dark areas (something which Hunt: Showdown certainly doesn't have a shortage of); it can still be used as one in an emergency, though its damage relies primarily on afterburn rather than initial impact damage.
An update added the Colt Single Action Army to H:S's arsenal, going by the name "Caldwell Pax" ("Pax" being Latin for "Peace", an allusion to the SAA's nickname of "Peacemaker"). A decent all-rounder, the SAA holds 6 rounds of "Medium" ammunition, and behaves rather like a somewhat tamer version of the cartridge-converted Colt Walker "Uppercut". As with the rest of the game's gate-loading revolvers, the player character incorrectly ignores the ejector rod when reloading.
The SAA has one variant to its name, the "Claw"; this has broken grip panels and a blade attached to the base of the grip, with its main advantage being stronger pistol-whipping.
Added in Update 6.0, the "LeMat Mark 2 Revolver" is a fictitious cartridge conversion of the LeMat 1861; a rather strange choice, given that actual cartridge-firing versions of the LeMat did actually exist. It is correctly depicted with a 9-round capacity plus an additional shotgun shell, with the lever on the hammer being appropriately moved up or down to fire pistol-caliber rounds (of the "Compact" variety; this presumably makes it a .36-caliber version, though with how vague the in-game calibers are one can't really be sure) or shotgun shells.
The cylinder is reloaded through a side-mounted gate (with there not even being an ejector rod for the player character to ignore this time around, though the cap-and-ball version's loading/ramming lever is still alive and well), and the shotgun is reloaded through a completely fictitious method wherein the player character grabs the barrel and breaks the weapon open, in a manner possibly inspired by the LeMat seen in the TV series Johnny Ringo; exactly why this method can't be used to reload the cylinder as well isn't clear, apart from the usual "balance reasons".
The Winchester Model 1873 appears as the "Winfield M1873". It has multiple variants - the "Winfield M1873C", which is lighter and easier to aim but has a 7 round mag tube, the "Winfield M1873 Aperture", which as the name implies uses a Vernier aperture sight, the "Winfield M1873 Swift", which is modified to accept a speedloader, the "Winfield M1873 Talon", which mounts blades on the stock for improved melee damage, the "Winfield M1873C Marksman", which attaches a scope, and the "Winfield M1873 Silencer", which is fitted with a integral suppressor.
The Sharps 1874 appears as the "Sparks LRR" (Long Range Rifle) chambered in .45-70. It has two variants - the "Sparks LRR Sniper", which uses a scope, and the "Sparks LRR Silencer", which is self-explanatory.
The Swiss Vetterli M1869/71 Carbine appears as the "Vetterli 71 Karabiner". The "Bayonet" variant adds a bayonet and the "Deadeye" variant adds a scope.
The Mosin-Nagant M1891 appears under its real name. It appears to be mostly based on the 3rd configuration of the M1891 infantry rifle due to having a front sling swivel, an upper handguard, and an open blade front sight. It also has a rear sight similar to a M1891/30 and a curved pistol grip like the Finnish M39. It has several variants - the self-explanatory "Bayonet", two cut-down "Obrez" variants, one with a melee-damage-increasing "Mace" (a steel cap on the end of the stock, rather reminiscent of many Flintlock Pistols) and one without, the "Sniper" variant, which adds the expected scope, and the "Avtomat" variant, which is an automatic conversion bearing some resemblance to the Huot Automatic Rifle that has a fifteen-round drum magazine (still loaded with stripper clips).
The Lebel 1886 was added to the game in Update 6.0 under its real name, albeit with a higher capacity of 10 rounds instead of 8. There are two varieties of Lebel, the "Lebel Talon" which has an axe blade in the butt stock that boost melee damage as well as a scoped version known as the "Lebel Marksman".
The Spencer 1882 appears as the "Specter 1882". The shotgun has a capacity of 4+1, one less than reality, where its tube magazine holds 5 rounds. It has a shortened variant with a bayonet attached resembling a WWI era trench gun, and a sawed-off variant with a three-round magazine tube and a gripped metal pump handle.

The reload procedure is depicted correctly, with the new shells being loaded into the open action after pulling back the pump. This also unfortunately ejects the chambered shell, but that shell can be recovered if the hunter has the "Bulletgrubber" trait. The empty reload process will fill up the tube magazine to its in-game capacity of 4, then work the action to chamber one round. Reloading again will then fill it up to capacity.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA wander around a small bayou churchyard yields the Specter Compact, or the Spencer Super Shorty.Error creating thumbnail: File missingHearing a bunch of loud groaning, the hunter aims, revealing the detail in both fake Spencer markings and the scratch made pump handle.
Single Barreled Shotgun
A Single Barreled Shotgun appears as the "Romero 77" (possibly a reference to director George A. Romero). There are 3 variants available, including a sawn-off version called the "Handcannon", a full sized version with a large melee assembly on the stock called the "Talon", and a sawn off made into a makeshift hatchet which is fittingly dubbed the "Hatchet".
