The following weapons appear in the video game Heroes & Generals:

Handguns

Colt M1903 Hammerless

The Colt M1903 Hammerless is the US pocket pistol. It is similar to the pocket pistols of the other nations and also fires a rather small round being .32 ACP. Despite this, it can still be very deadly when performing headshots.

Korovin TK

The Soviet Korovin TK is one of the smallest guns ingame. It fires the 6.35x16SR Browning / .25ACP which allows fast follow up shots due to the low muzzle climb. Although this weapon was never officially adopted into Red Army use, lots of them were issued anyway to any person who didn't really need a weapon but wanted to carry one for self defence like high ranking officers, medics etc. It is a very special weapon in the game as it has been rarely seen in media so far.

Korovin TK - .25 ACP.

Mauser 1934 Taschenpistole

The Germans can get a Mauser 1934 Taschenpistole as an early unlock. In real life this was the standard sidearm of the German Kriegsmarine (Navy) but as it was a very common pistol at the time, German high ranking officers and even lower ranks got this pistol as their sidearm. As it fires the rather small 7.65x17mmSR/.32 ACP it has a rather low recoil thus follow up shots can be fired very fast. This is also reflected ingame. The developers even got the reload procedure right, which is very impressive as the actual reloading sequence of this weapon is somewhat special. The pistol locks the slide back when the last round has been fired, you pull the old magazine out, insert a new one and at that time the pistol automatically unlocks the slide chambering a new round.

Walther P38

The famous Walther P38 is the fourth pistol unlocked for the German side. It has a similar behavior as the Luger P08 ingame, so it is more a matter of personal preference which one you choose.

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.

M3 "Grease Gun" - .45 ACP

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.

Steyr MP34 - 9x19mm.

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.

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 very effective.

Rifles

FG 42/I

German Fallschirmjäger troops can unlock the rare FG 42/I. As in real life it has heavy recoil when fired in full auto mode; if you switch it to semi-auto or shoot in short, controlled bursts, this weapon is very deadly due to the rifle cartridge. The model in game is the early model FG42.

Gewehr 43

The Gewehr 43 is the semi automatic rifle for the German faction ingame. As the Tokarev SVT-40 for the Soviet Union, this rifle also reloads from a 10 round box magazine.

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 loses power over distance rather fast.

M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine

M1 Carbine with M84
US soldiers can unlock the M1 Carbine with M84. The scope has a magnification of 2.2x. Although this is a real combination in real life, it would be nearly impossible to see this in World War 2 (and even more in the European Theater of Operations) as scope mounts for the Carbine variants were mostly available after the war. The earliest variant was the M3 Carbine with the IR scope (which used the same scope mount) which was first used in the Battle of Okinawa.

M1 Garand

The M1 Garand is the US semi automatic rifle. It works very well in most situations, makes the usual "PING" sound when it is empty and is loaded with an 8 round en-bloc clip.

M1 Garand - .30-06

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.

M1D Sniper Variant with M84 scope - .30-06. The T-37 flash suppressor is an option and is not featured in the game.

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.

M1A1 Carbine - .30 Carbine

M2 Carbine

A late war version called the 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.

US soldiers can unlock the M2 Carbine with M84. The scope has a magnification of 2.2x. This is the same case as the M1 Carbine with M84, in fact chances to see an M1/M2 Carbine with a M84 scope in WW2 is even more unlike, probably impossible.

Mosin Nagant M91/30

The Mosin Nagant M91/30 is the standard Soviet bolt action rifle. It has clean sights and reloads with a 5 round stripper clip.

Mosin Nagant M91/30 - 7.62x54mm R.

Render in the loadout screen. Note the downturned bolt handle, which is normally only seen on scoped Mosin-Nagant rifles.

Mosin Nagant M91/30 with PU
The Mosin Nagant M91/30 with PU can be unlocked by Soviet Union infantry and sniper classes. The scope has a 3.5x magnification. When attaching the scope, the rifle can only be reloaded round by round, no stripper clips.

Full-length, Mosin Nagant M91/30 Sniper Rifle with Russian PU 3.5x sniper scope (this example is one of the repurposed SVT-40 scopes, 91/30 PU scopes had consistent tube diameter as the mount rings were shorter) and down turned bolt handle - 7.62x54mm R.

The powerful Mosin Nagant M91/30 with ZS Zielacht can only be unlocked by Soviet snipers. The scope has a 8.0x magnification. When attaching the scope, the rifle can only be reloaded round by round, no stripper clips. Although the combination of a German scope with a Soviet rifle might sound strange, it is believed that this could have happened during WW2 as the Soviets did not have their own high powered scope available.

Panzerbüchse 39

The German faction can unlock the Panzerbüchse 39 as an early anti-tank weapon. It can be deployed on obstacles and on the ground using the bipod which makes the weapon more stable and accurate. The weapon is zeroed for 300m and can use several different types of the Patrone 318 ingame. It is best used against vehicles with thin armor like cars, trucks and recon vehicles. If fired against heavier armored vehicles, it is best to aim for weak spots like vision ports etc.

PTRD-41

The Soviet faction can unlock the PTRD-41, a very powerful anti-tank rifle. Ingame it is very powerful against soft-skinned vehicles and light tanks, but it struggles against the heavier armored vehicles. It is a single shot, bolt action rifle which loads a massive 14.5x114mm round.

PTRD-41 - 14.5x114mm.

PTRS-41

The PTRS-41 is the successor to the PTRD-41 which fires the same ammo but is semi automatic. It is very accurate ingame when it is deployed on the bipod. It will destroy soft-skinned and lightly armored easily when the weak parts are hit.

Simonov AVS-36

The Simonov AVS-36 is featured in the game as the Soviet Union's last unlock. It is a full-auto rifle and fires a heavy rifle bullet. It has a high recoil, but if fired in short bursts it is a very effective weapon.

Simonov AVS-36 - 7.62x54mmR.

Simonov AVS-36 with PU
The Simonov AVS-36 with PU can be unlocked by Soviet Union infantry. The scope has a 3.5x magnification. When attaching the scope, the rifle can still be reloaded with the usual box magazines. It is unknown if this combination existed in real life, a more usual choice would have been with a PEM scope, an earlier sniper scope which generally had the same specifications as the PU but was more complex to manufacture. By the time the PU scope arrived at the front lines, most AVS-36 rifles were already lost or captured by the German Forces but it is still possible that some AVS-36 rifles received the PU scope.

Springfield M1903A1 with M84
US soldiers can first unlock the Springfield M1903A1 with M84. Although technically not impossible, this combination is rather uncommon. A more historical combination would be the M1903A4 with M84 scope as shown in the photo below but as changing the model from an 1903A1 to A4 would create more work for the game developers, I guess this was avoided. The scope has a 2.2x magnification. When attaching the scope, the rifle can only be reloaded round by round, no stripper clips.

Machine Guns

Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2

The Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2, also called "BAR", is the first light machine gun for the United States. It is a very powerful weapon in close ranges, but also for medium ranges if you fire short bursts.

The United States infantry soldiers can also unlock the Browning M1919A4. The variant ingame looks like it was directly dismounted from a pedestal mount from a vehicle as it still has the mounting fitted at the bottom of the MG. The ladder sights are folded up and it uses a 50 round belt.

MG34

The MG34 is the first unlockable machinegun for the German faction. Ingame it mounts the 50 round belt drum called Gurttrommel 34. It has a good rate of fire and is best used in prone position firing bursts, otherwise the recoil will be rather high.

Bazooka M1A1

The Bazooka M1A1 can be unlocked by US Forces. The penetration of the Bazooka is a bit lower than the Panzerschreck also featured in the game (as was in real life), but it is still a good ranged anti tank weapon.

Bazooka M9A1

The Bazooka M9A1 is featured in the game for the US Forces. Ingame it has the folding bar sight mounted and as with all weapons in the game the range can be adjusted. It fires the improved M6A3 rocket. As the game has a fairly realistic damage model for all vehicles, you have to aim for the weakspots so the HEAT rocket will penetrate and hit an internal component. The penetration is improved compared to its predecessor, the Bazooka M1A1 as it was in real life.

Granatbüchse Modell 39

A weapon rarely seen in video games is the Granatbüchse Modell 39. It can be unlocked for the Germans. It fires the Große Gewehr-Panzergranate which is a HEAT type rifle grenade. It has a rather good range, nice adjustable sights and is very effective against the thinner armored vehicles and tanks. The Granatbüchse 39 is actually a Panzerbüchse 39 with a shortened barrel and a welded on rifle grenade cup launcher. A special blank ammunition with a wooden bullet is used to propel the rifle grenades.

Panzerfaust - 44mm with 149mm warhead.
