Nagant M1895
The Soviet Nagant M1895 is a very powerful revolver ingame. It has a very interesting reloading animation, which correctly shows how each bullet is inserted into the cylinder one by one.
Submachine Guns
M3 "Grease Gun"
The first submachine gun for the US is the M3 "Grease Gun". It has a rather low rate of fire but due to the .45 ACP round it packs quite a punch.
Thompson M1A1
The Thompson M1A1 is the second unlockable submachine gun for the United States. It is a very powerful weapon ingame with a rather high rate of fire while still being controllable.
MP34
The German Forces can first unlock the MP34. Ingame it uses the smaller 20 round magazine but it is still quite effective. This weapon is rarely seen in video games, this fact makes this weapon very interesting and unique.
MP40
The well known MP40 can be unlocked by the German Forces. It features a 32 round magazine and has a pretty controllable recoil. It is a great all around weapon ingame.
PPD-40
A rarely seen weapon in video games is the PPD-40. It is the first available submachine gun for the Soviet Faction, has a large drum magazine and is nice to clear out buildings.
PPSh-41
The second unlockable SMG for the Soviet Union is the very famous PPSh-41. It has a large 71 round drum mag and a high rate of fire. In close quarters combat this weapon is an absolute beast.
PPS-43

Rifles
Springfield M1903A1

M1D Garand with M84
US Infantry, Recon and Paratrooper classes can unlock the M1D Garand with M84. The scope has a magnification of 2.2x. You can still reload the rifle with the usual 8 round en-bloc clip as the sight is offset to the left to allow this.
M1 Carbine
One of the most produced rifles of WW2 being the M1 Carbine can be acquired by the US paratrooper. It is a fast firing semi-automatic weapon with a rather weak ammo which means that it looses power over distance rather fast.
M1A1 Carbine
The player can unlock the M1A1 Carbine for the US paratrooper class and tanker. The M1A1 is the folding stock version of the standard M1 thus making it a ligher version. This is also reflected in the game as the M1A1 takes fewer equipment points.
M1/M2 Carbine
A late war version called the M1/M2 Carbine is featured in the game. It is a select fire version which can switch between semi and full automatic fire. In the closing months of WW2 in Europe US Ordnance issued conversion part-kits to the US Forces fighting in Europe to counter the widespread use of German assault rifles. Those converted M1 Carbines were called M1/M2 Carbines.

Fallschirmjäger Gewehr 42
German Fallschirmjäger troops can unlock the rare Fallschirmjäger Gewehr 42.

The game offers the early model of the FG42, something rarely seen in video games.
