Just going to give a list and a bit of info on many types of guns. Enjoy.

HK-MP5A4

The preffered submachine gun of counter-terrorist operatives around the world, Heckler and Koch's MP5 is known for its reliability and accuracy, even when firing on full automatic. A 9mm MP5A4 fitted with single, triple, and full auto trigger group.

M4 Carbine

A compact version of the M-16, the M4 carbine is commonly used when the firepower of an assault rifle is needed, but the weight and size is not. It is commonly used by US and Israeli Special Forces. It comes standard with a single and full auto trigger group.

HK-UMP45SD

An HK UMP45 equipped with a sound suppressor. Of course, the suppression is not as complete as the integral suppressor of the MP5SD. A good choice when a balance between power and silence is required.

Enfield L85A1

The Enfield L85A1 (also known as the Enfield Individual Weapon of SA80) is the standard infantry weapon of the British Army. Its bullpup design trades accuracy for maneuverability.

Steyr Aug

The standard weapon of the Australian army, the Steyr AUG is a futuristic looking assault rifle with a compact bullpup design. It is well suited for missions requiring the maneuverability of a submachine gun combined with the punch of an assault rifle.

M16-A2

When extra range or firepower is needed, anti-terrorist groups turn to the M16-A2. Tried and true, it’s 5.56 calibur easily pierces Level II body armor and has the longest range of any of the anti-terrorist group standard weapons. It comes standard with a single and three round trigger group.

M-14

The direct descendant of the classic M1 Garand, the M14 fires a 7.62 round with extreme accuracy. It has been in use by the US army since 1957.

Barrett Model 82A1

The Barrett Model 82A1 ‘Light Fifty’ M82A1 was the first .50 caliber sniper rifle to achieve widespread use. It’s massive length (1.55m) and weight (13.4kg) makes it the most accurate sniper rifle in any anti-terrorist group. Extreme car should usually be used in employing this weapon, as its high powered .50 Browning round can tear through multiple targets just as easily as it can through an engine block.

PSG-1

Arguably the most accurate off-the-shelf sniper rifle available. A favorite of police forces around the world, the PSG-1 comes standard with a 6x sight and fires the NATO 7.62 round.

Walther WA2000

The shortest sniper rifle used by the army, the Walther WA2000’s bullpup design and lightweight make it a favorite of snipers with needing to move stealthy into difficult positions. Its powerful .300 Winchester round has more punch than the more common 7.62 NATO round.

SPAS-12

The SPAS-12 is a fully automatic combat shotgun capable of emptying its clip in 2.25s. This makes it ideal for quickly clearing a room of all hostiles.

Benelli M1

Whether used for door breaching or highly lethal close quarters combat, a good tactical shotgun is an essential part of all tactical units. The 12-Gauge Benelli M1 is used largely because its superb recoil characteristics enable a skilled operator to fire five rounds accurately in less than one second. This is the only shotgun that can utilise slugs.

AK-47

This 7.62 assault rifle was first used by the Soviet military in 1949. Since then, it’s popularity has grown worldwide mainly due to its ease of use and sturdy feel.

Dragunov

Another rifle of Soviet descent, this 7.62 sniper rifle was designed to maintain accuracy, even in heavy combat. Thanks to a uniquely designed gas piston system, this rifle can fire, then regain a target and fire again slightly fast than other rifles.

Uzi

Famous for its small size and high rate of fire, the UZI is a popular weapon. With its relatively large ammo capacity and high rate of fire, this is a better weapon for laying cover fire than inflicting serious damage.



There you go. I’ll give you the side-arm list in an other post.

As far as I know it's not called the Enfield L85A1.

Also, the standard weapon of the British Army is now the L85A2, and it doesn't trade off on accuracy compared to similar type weapons of other countries, especially when equipped with the SUSAT sight unit.

Reminds me of the days when I still played Rainbow six

You know it would be great if you managed to post some pictures showing the various types, I for one would be interested

I can find pics of all of them.

www.world.guns.ru

Go there, look it up. And Alexander, this looks disturbingly like the Rainbow Six manual.....

By the way, the SPAS-12 does NOT deserve to be on that list. It's too heavy, impractical and unreliable. Try a Mossberg or a Remington instead.

I do have Rainbow Six. I didn't copy it, but most guns I do think I got from that game.

Do you have any experience with those weapons? IIRC the SPAS12 is the only one of those you mentioned that is semi automatic.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes that site

The SPAS-12 isn't even used very frequently in the (U.S) military. The Remington 870 and M-1014 are in use with the U.S Army and U.S Airforce, and the Mossberg 590 with the U.S Marines.

I'm not sure about other militaries, but the SPAS-12 has a reputation for being finicky.

I've actually fired the M-16A2 and M4 before, as well as the Dragunov, AK and PSG-1.
