The [[MP40#MP40|MP40]] is used by the German faction. It was the standard submachinegun of Germany during World war 2. It was often claimed that holding the weapon by the magazine would cause a misfire. However, this is a popular misconception, it was actually very common to hold the weapon by the magazine due to the lack of space to hold it elsewhere.

Work In Progress

This article is still under construction. It may contain factual errors. See Talk:Forgotten Hope 2 for current discussions. Content is subject to change.

The following weapons appear in the video game Forgotten Hope 2:

Forgotten Hope 2 (2005)

NOTE: For the original game, see Battlefield 2.'

Sidearms

Colt M1911A1

The Colt M1911A1 is the main sidearm for the U.S. Army faction and a secondary sidearm for the British and Canadian factions. Unlike in Battlefield 2, where every class is issued a sidearm, only the Non-Commissioned Officers, Support Gunners, Sidearms and Antitank Infantry carry them in Forgotten Hope 2. Each faction are issued only three magazines, or eighteen rounds for the revolvers, and their short range and stopping power makes them only useful in desperate, close quarter situations. The weapon is merely referred to as the Colt M1911 in-game, dropping the A1 designation.

World War II issued Colt M1911A1 Pistol - .45 ACP

M1917 Revolver

The Colt Military version of the M1917 Revolver is carried as a back-up weapon by U.S. Army Support Gunners. What appears to be a silver M1917 revolver also appears rarely in-game.

Colt M1917 Revolver (Military issue with lanyard ring) - .45 ACP. Note the unsupported ejector rod - common of Colt revolvers of the period, as well as the Colt-style cylinder release latch.

Webley Mk VI

The Webley Mk VI is the main sidearm for the Commonwealth faction (Great Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand) in-game.

Webley Mk. VI - .455 Webley

Webley & Scott MkIII

The Webley & Scott MkIII flare pistol is issued to New Zealand LRDG Commandos in Operation Hyacinth. It fires a dull flare on a well-lit map and is no use against enemy soldiers, making it practically useless except as scenery. It is referred to as the No3 Mk1 Very.

Webley & Scott MkIII Signal Pistol - 1 inch

Browning Hi-Power

The Browning Hi-Power, along with the Colt M1911A1, is carried by several classes of the British and Canadian factions. It is also used (although scarcely) by the German faction on occasion. A variant of the in-game Hi-Power, fitted with a "broomhandle" stock, can be used by British classes on several maps.

The first version of the classic pistol, developed by John Browning and adopted by Belgium in 1935, the FN P-35 - 9x19mm. During World War II, the Germans would occupy the Belgian firearms factories and continued to produce this gun, still called the P-35, but with Waffenamt stamps. The Design would be adopted by other countries and manufactured abroad with the generic designation simply as the "Browning High Power".

Luger P08

The Luger P08 can be used by several German classes, although is it largely supplemented by the Walther P38.

Luger P08 - 9x19mm

Walther P38

The Walther P38 is the main sidearm for the German faction in-game.

Walther P38 pistol (manufactured at the Mauser Factory) - World War II dated - 9x19mm

Sauer 38H

The Sauer 38H is available in some maps as a sidearm for the German faction. Historically, the Sauer 38H was developed in Nazi Germany as a competitor for the Luger P08 and Walther P38, although the Sauer was mostly used by Police Officers whilst the Luger and Walther typically ended up amongst front-line troops.

Sauer 38H - .32 ACP

Beretta M1934

The Beretta M1934 appears as the sidearm for the Italian faction. It is simply referred to as the Beretta 34 in-game.

Beretta Model 1934 - .380 ACP. On the slide are reported the year of production (in this case 1941) and in roman numerals the year fascist.

Submachine Guns

M1928 Thompson

The M1928 Thompson is used by Commonwealth factions in Greece, Crete and North Africa. It fires from both a 30-round stick and 50-round drum magazine, and can be selected to fire both at a single and full automatic rate of fire. Out of all the submachine guns in the game, the Thompson's have the highest recoil.

M1928 "Tommy Gun" or "Chicago typewriter" with 50-round drum magazine - .45 ACP, made famous through countless classic gangster movies.

M1A1 Thompson

The M1A1 Thompson is used by the U.S. faction, as well as by some British and Canadian classes. It uses a 30-round stick magazine and, like the M1928, fires at both single and full automatic.

M1A1 Thompson with 30-round magazine - .45 ACP

M3 Grease Gun

On some maps, the M3 Grease Gun replaces the M1 Carbine as the weapon for the U.S. assault Class.

M3 "Grease Gun" .45 ACP. The later model M3A1 would eliminate the crank lever for cocking the bolt, and instead used a simple hole in the bolt for the shooter to use their finger.

Sten Mk II

The Sten Mk II is used by the British and Canadian factions in France. The suppressed Sten Mk IIS is used by Royal Marine Commandos in Port en Bessin. It can be fired in single or full automatic.

M1903A1 Springfield - .30-06

M1903A4 Springfield

The M1903A4 Springfield is the sniper rifle for the U.S. Army Faction. Unlike in Battlefield 2, where there is a default sniper class, sniper rifles in Forgotten Hope 2 function as an "Easter Egg", as they can be only picked up from odd locations in maps, such as the main base or recently captured spawn points.

Karabiner 98k

The Karabiner 98k is the main weapon of the German Army faction in-game. It can be fitted with a bayonet, and on some maps, a rifle grenade launcher. An interesting difference in models from maps set in North Africa and post D-Day Europe is the iron sights - the former maps feature "curved" iron sights, whilst the latter have hooded sights, making them more accurate. Two more models, respectively fitted with a 1.5x Zeiss ZF41 scope and a Zeiss ZF42 telescopic sight can be picked up as "easter eggs".

The M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle is the main weapon for the U.S. Faction Support Class. It can be fired from the hip, but a deployable bipod can also be used for more stabilized firing and accuracy. The player has to be prone to use the bipod. Amusingly, in the map Ramelle-Neuville, a reference to the climatic battle of Saving Private Ryan, the B.A.R used by PFC Reiben (Edward Burns) in the film has been modeled for the game, with the bipod removed and the ability to fire at both the default 450 rpm and the increased 600 rpm used by Reiben in the film.

Browning M1919A6
