Battlefield 2042 - Internet Movie Firearms Database - Guns in Movies, TV and Video Games

Magnum Research Desert Eagle Mark XIX with stainless steel finish, railed frame, railed barrel and integral muzzle brake - .50 AE

The Desert Eagle as seen in the battlepass preview menu.

Rao gripping a Desert Eagle Mark XIX outside a Swedish automated weapons factory.

Performing a tactical reload with the Desert Eagle. Note that the game properly tracks how many rounds are left in the half-empty magazine.

Dropping an empty magazine, note the slide stop is properly depicted.

With a full magazine inserted, the player character thumbs the slide stop and chambers a fresh round.

Glock 18 (3rd Generation) - 9x19mm Parabellum

Glock 17 (4th Generation), for comparison - 9x19mm Parabellum

The Glock 18 in the loadout menu. Note the two-stage guide rod, the enlarged magazine release, and the grip texture; these elements coupled with the square slide edges, the finger grooves, and the non-ambidextrous slide release (the latter evidenced when reloading) indicate that it is a Gen 4 Glock configuration.

Boris wielding the Glock out in the scenic park in the park of the Songdo district on the "Kaleidoscope" level.

Aiming reveals the G57 has three-dot type sights rather than the classic illuminated notch.

A Beta screenshot of the G18's tacticool reload. The extended magazines reload in a more typical style.

About to flick out at empty magazine from the Glock. This angle shows that the slide release is indeed non-ambidextrous.

Sliding in another mag. As with previous iterations, the slide still has a full set of serrations.

The Kel-Tec P50 in the loadout selection model viewer.

Opening the top cover, revealing an opaque P90 magazine.

Removing the magazine. When empty, it correctly shows no bullets.

Dozer thumbs the slide release, chambering a new round.

The Nordvik manufactured "P125" handgun in the loadout menu model viewer.

The "NVK-P125" bullpup pistol.

Close-up view on the Plus menu. Its markings indicate that it is chambered for the 5.7x28mm cartridge. Oddly, despite having a magazine about the same size as an FN Five-seveN's (which can fit 20 of this cartridge), it holds only 13 rounds per magazine.

Flicking out an empty magazine.

Inserting a new magazine. Note the black tip of the 5.7mm bullet, as well as the animated slide release locking up. The barrel somewhat oddly locks forward. While this would normally suggest a blow-forward design, the barrel doesn't reciprocate forwards when firing, so how this works isn't really clear.

Despite the slide release catch, the player character instead opts to pull the charging handle; a few frames after this, the barrel slides back to meet the charging handle, and then they both go forwards into battery (with the barrel presumably picking up and chambering a round on the way back).

SIG-Sauer P320-M17 in Flux Defense MP17 chassis - 9x19mm Parabellum

The P320 in its aftermarket pistol carbine conversion. This MP17 configuration sports a pistol brace rather than a stock, and the default sight is a Trijicon RMR.

Drawing the P320+MP17 - here, the brace pops out.

Wielding the MP17 as Wyatt inside a CNES building.

Using the default bronze RMR sight.

Previewing the converted pistol. The spare magazine is already in use here.

ADS view of the ghost ring sights.

Pumping the shotgun. Like in Modern Warfare (2019), the shell is correctly with a blown out crimp after being fired.

Inserting new shells. Shells are color-coded depending on the type: buckshots are red, flechettes are white, slugs are green.

A Remington 870-equipped Marine stacks up behind McKay in the trailer.

Hatcher Gun Company Saiga 12 - 12 gauge

The game model of the HGC-modified Saiga 12. Note that, as in previous games, it is modeled with a 5-round magazine, at odds with its 8-round default capacity.

Inside a desolate warehouse with the Saiga.

Aiming with the flip-up sights.

Dumping out an empty 12-gauge magazine. The bolt automatically locks back when empty, similar to the Vepr-12.

Pulling the added round charging handle.

The AK-12 in the loadout menu. The OD green furniture seen in the reveal trailer has been replaced with tan furniture.

The AK-12 in Angel's hands in Antarctica in the released game, now held in a more typical fashion.

Closeup view of the AK-12 in the Plus menu.

Iron sights of the AK-12.

Performing a tactical reload with the box magazine.

Removing an empty magazine using the thumb technique.

Doing the underhand reload technique.

The AK-12 in the Beta, when it was held with a high angle C-clamp grip.

Aiming shows the thumb moved aside to open the sight picture.

A closeup of the AK-12 in the trailer - the magazine appears to be a bit mispositioned here, the safety is engaged, and the bolt is halfway out of battery. As with some other weapons in the game, the rail segments are non-standard.

Another shot of the AK-12.

The AK-24 with RPK-16 drum magazine, 1P78 Kashtan scope, bipod, and extended barrel.

Removing the drum magazine from a tactical reload.

When empty, the old drum is kicked out with the new one. It's not pictured here, but the player character is somehow able to perform an underhand bolt pull with the drum magazine equipped.

The AK-24's right hand charging animation.

The AM-17 in the loadout menu model viewer.

The AM-17 in the drained Panamanian lake of Gatun.

Inspecting the AM-17 in the Plus menu.

After shooting all fifteen rounds, the specialist pushes the magazine release and lets the empty magazine fall free.

Loading a new, full magazine.

Pressing the bolt release.

Viewing a customized M4 V7 with the DD magazine - note the safety is on here. Equipping a camouflage finish used to remove the random pressure pad bits on the handguard; this also occured with the SCAR-H and SVCh. Later updates restored their usual appearance on these weapons for standard camo finishes.

FN SCAR-H CQC with FN MK 13 EGLM - 7.62x51mm NATO & 40x46mm

Third Generation FN SCAR-H STD - 7.62x51mm NATO

A preview of the 2042-era SCAR.

An FN SCAR-H as seen in the trailer, with two-tone receivers and a rail cover. The magazine also appears to be a bit mispositioned here, and there are two visible front sights attached to the gas block, one flipped up, the other down. Note that it lacks an EGLM grenade launcher, a configuration not possible in the final game.

Engel with the SCAR-H + EGLM in a sandblasted villa in Doha.

Aiming with the SCAR's standard iron sights.

In an inversion to most of the other 2042-era rifles, the SCAR's mid-magazine reload is fairly standard.

However, when empty, the user chamber-checks the SCAR...

...grabs a new mag first...

...and swaps the old one for it.

Pulling the SCAR's bolt back into battery.

Irish observes a dirt devil with the standard-length SCAR-H.

Heckler & Koch G36C - 5.56x45mm

The G36C in the loadout menu.

The G36C in the Season 5 trailer.

Mackay wields a bone stock G36C in a South African facility. It can also be seen in his shadow here and in the following images.

Reloading mid-magazine. Note that the selector is set to safe during reloads, much like the "DM7".

Inserting fresh magazine with the previous magazine retained.

Ejecting a completely empty magazine.

Inserting a fresh magazine.

Tugging the charging handle to drop the bolt on the new magazine.

The extended "High Power" magazines come in Schmeisser 60 round AR-15 magazines, which would require a replacement magwell in the case of a G36. As these only come in the "High Power" flavor, they merely hold 30 rounds (the default HP mags hold 20).

HS Produkt VHS-K2 - 5.56x45mm NATO

The HS Produkt VHS-K2 in the battlepass preview menu. Note the standard BF2042 style powered accessory rails.

Mackay gripping his VHS-K2 in an abandoned research facility in the Scottish Hebrides.

Aiming through the VHS-K2's flip up polymer peep sight.

Mackay performs a tactical reload.

Inserting a fresh magazine. By default, the standard 30 round magazines are modeled on 20 round PMAGs, with a later option to unlock the original HS Produkt factory magazines.

Reloading from empty, Mackay ejects the old magazine.

Inserts a new magazine. Note that unlike certain other reload animations in Battlefield 2042, the player character does not switch to safe during reloads with the VHS-K2.

Racking the charging handle to chamber a round.

The tan "VCAR" in the loadout menu. One has to wonder what it's chambered in, given that a magazine of this length somehow only holds 30 rounds.

A Kel-Tec CMR-30 in one of the Renewal greenhouses.

Aiming with the same stylized MBUS as the "AC-42."

Reloading the CMR-30 - removing the magazine.

Releasing the CMR's bolt.

Charging the RM277 when spawning.

Side view in the Plus menu.

Aiming down its canted iron sights.

Firing - note the ejected polymer casing.

Tactical reloading involves hitting the mag release...

...then inserting a new one.

Racking the charging handle to chamber a new round. This is one of two ways to chamber from empty.

Marlin Model 336 Dark Series - .30-30 Winchester

Previewing the Marlin Model 336, with a Vector Talos scope equipped by default.

Cocking the Marlin upon spawning-in an unfortunately-shadowed spot. The ejection port's shape is slightly altered, though it is still based on that of a Model 336 rather than an 1895.

The Model 336 under some better lighting.

Aiming with the rather thin-profile rear ghost ring sight.

Working the lever-action.

Reloading with an alleged .45-70 round.

The MCX-SPEAR loaded with the 6.8 style 20-round Lancer magazines. It also has a wrapped suppressor and bipod here.

Reloading the full-power cartridge magazines.

Another SPEAR with the 9mm magazines, looking something like an overgrown SIG-Sauer MPX here.

A view of the scope's reticle.

The Chukavin's non-empty reload.

Tugging the charging handle.

Mechem NTW-20 - 20x82mm MG151

The standard NTW-50 in the Weapons menu tab. As mentioned above, it appears to use a .50 caliber upper receiver configuration by default, which would probably be the most man-portable configuration possible. It also has a handguard, and is missing the hydraulic dampener assembly that can be seen under the barrel in the reference image above.

On the hunt for heavy warehouse equipment with the NTW-50.

The NTW-50 in the Attachments+ pose, casually held out with one arm. The bipod is permanently deployed and can't be folded.

Aiming with its BUIS, set to a rear notch rather than aperture.

Removing the magazine on a reload. While this is presumably a .50 caliber mag, the round inside somewhat resembles a 20x42 "grenade" round from the PAW-20.

The new one is smacked in with the same animation from the Type 11 hopper reload from BFV.

DSR-Precision GmbH DSR-1 - 7.62x51mm NATO

The DSR-1 in the loadout menu preview, sans scope.

When spawning with the DSR-1, the character inserts a bullet before closing the bolt.

VSS Vintorez with PSO-1 scope - 9x39mm

Previewing the 2042-era VSS.

The VSS Vintorez in hand.

View of the VSS in the Plus menu.

A view through the PSO-1 scope. The reticle is mostly correct, barring the "1.5" marking on the stadiametric rangefinder rather than the correct "1.7"; this is a reference marking for the height of an average soldier in meters, so unless half the combatants on a 2042-era battlefield are under 4'11", this can safely be called incorrect (most likely due to the use of a civilian PSOP reticle as a reference, which has 0.5- and 1.5-meter markings for hunting deer and elk, respectively).

Replacing a magazine in a tactical reload.

Yanking an empty magazine...

Pulling the charging handle.

FightLite MCR - 5.56x45mm NATO

The FightLite MCR in the loadout menu.

The MCR with the optional 30 round PMAG; an extended 40 round PMAG and a (30 round PMAG downloaded to 20 rounds) "High Power" PMAG are also available. A foregrip and a holographic sight are also mounted on this particular gun; the latter attachment's presence brings about the front and rear sights' absence.

Lis holds her MCR while looking out at the Atacama Desert.

Aiming down the iron sights of the MCR.

Reloading from a partially depleted belt.

Flipping the feed tray to check for stray links.

Sliding in a fresh new belt of ammo.

Opening the dust cover after expending a full belt of ammo.

The full empty reload animation is much the same as the partial, with the exception of Lis racking the charging handle after closing the dust cover on the fresh belt.

Replacing an empty magazine; note that the player character has flipped the selector switch to safe.

Racking the charging handle after inserting the new magazine.

FN EVOLYS 7.62 - 7.62x51mm NATO

The FN EVOLYS in the loadout menu model viewer, with the standard 100 round 5.56x45mm ammo box.

Side view of the EVOLYS in the Plus menu.

Aiming. It shares iron sights with the SCAR, with the front sight on a folding rail mount base.

Racking the charging handle to clear the receiver.

Opening the side cover to reveal the unique loading system.

Inserting a new belt from a 100/200-round box.

About to close the cover. The cover then lets the supposedly loose belt move to the chamber, which is the key feature of the real FN EVOLYS.

Kalashnikov RPL-20 (2020 version) - 5.45x39mm

The Kalashnikov RPL-20 in the loadout menu model viewer.

The RPL-20 LMG in the trailer for Season 4.

Moving the carry handle aside when deploying.

The RPL-20 in South Africa.

Side view in the Plus Menu.

The 1P87 holographic sight mounted to the RPL-20.

Aiming down the 1P87 optic. Note that it does not use its unique reticle, instead it uses the same EOTech reticle.

For tactical reloads, the belt links are moved manually.

Pulling the charging handle. The belt links move automatically upon charging the MG.

KAC LWAMG - 7.62x51mm NATO

KAC Stoner LMG A1 - 5.56x45mm NATO

Loadout menu view of the KAC LWAMG.

The KAC LWAMG in the trailer.

The LWAMG out in the unrenewed half of "Renewal." Note the feed pawl beneath the belt feed opening; this visibly moves back and forth (or rather, side-to-side) as the weapon fires.

Aiming with the KAC sights. In the Beta, the LWAMG could maintain ADS while being reloaded, but this functionality has been removed as of the game's release.

Locking the bolt back at the start of an empty reload.

Latching in a new belt box.

Setting the belt in place.

PKP Pecheneg Bullpup - 7.62x54mm R

The PKP-BP in the Weapons menu. Note the AK-12-style rear sight mounted on the carrying handle; this rather obviously couldn't line up with the front sight without the weapon being pointed ridiculously high, but it shoots straight ahead in-game.

A PKP Pecheneg Bullpup-equipped soldier runs for cover in the Songdo International Business District, South Korea.

Holding the PKP inside a Singaporean office.

Aiming with high AK-12 rear sight.

Inspecting the Pecheneg after firing off some of the belt, showing off the spent links here. It also mounts a Zenitco RK-3 style foregrip on the B-25U angled mount.

Performing a tactical reload with the PKP. Here, the specialist grabs the barrel under the carry handle (not a good idea for some of the ungloved characters) and opens the feed tray.

Setting in a new belt. It's notable here that the cartridges are rimless, meaning that this PKP might be using 7.62 NATO or rimless 7.62x54mm.

With the empty reload, the user leaves the cover closed and instead manually pulls the belt through.

Pulling the tab through, then the charging handle is pulled to put the PKP in battery.

Bates & Dittus ExD-37 - 37mm

Loadout preview of the ExD-37.

Aiming - the ROMEO5 has a circle dot reticle on the SPH launcher.

Similar to BFV's Doppelschuss, the non-empty reload is done with the right hand. The single unspent caseless staggered round is visible here.

While the empty reload is done with the left.

Carl Gustaf M4 - 84x246mm R

The M4 in the reveal trailer, used by a pilot executing the infamous "Rendezook" move. The definition of "air-to-air missile" has changed by 2042.

Shouldering the Gustaf - when pointed over the horizon, the rangefinder reads "UNKNOWN."

Here, the M4 is pointed across the spaceport's tarmac, which shows a range readout now.

Looking through the smart scope - it would probably be helpful if the range was visible here as well.

Popping open the breech after firing the M4.

Removing the spent casing.

Lis with the G-84 shouldered, which doesn't show much really. It appears to hide inside a container with the extra warhead on her world model when unequipped, while essentially every other specialist has their unique gadget usually visible.

Reloading, which reveals "84mm TGM" on the caseless missile.

A bit more of the launcher can be seen while crawling.

Menu view of the Smoke grenade.

Preview of the T13 Beano grenade.

Lis with a Beano in the server rooms on Exposure.

About to bean a server bank with the little grenade.

Looking at a smartphone ad with a smart grenade in-hand. While not visible here, the tan plastic cap on top has a single large red button at the center, which Sundance smacks with an open palm to arm the grenade; words cannot accurately express how unsafe a system this is for a hand grenade.

The later introduced V40 in the loadout.

The Wildcat with its autocannons.

Closeup of the ZU-23-2 firing. Note the empty casings ejecting.

Browning M2 QCB - .50 BMG

A "Ranger" quadruped robot with an M2 mounted on it. Its design seems inspired by the Boston Dynamics quadruped robots.

Several Browning M2s in the trailer, mounted on some tanks.

Mounted on the futuristic "M1A5" Abrams tank in the beta, which is basically an M1A2 with applique armor on the turret front and sides in the same vein as the Leopard 2A5 (and subsequent variants) to make it look like a Merkava Mk.4.

Strangely mounted on the "T-28U" (in-game future variant of the T-14 Armata) in the beta.

Dillon Aero M134 with flash suppressor - 7.62x51mm NATO

One of a pair of Dillon Aero M134s mounted on a scout chopper.

General Dynamics GAU-22/A - 25x137mm

Getting a look at the GAU-22/A pod on a F-35E landed atop a skyscraper.

GE M61 Vulcan Cannon - 20x102mm

A CIWS turret atop the "MFS-04 Exodus" destroyer commandeered by the No-Pats. The ship could be seen from the outside using console commands during the beta.

A C-RAM mounted atop a LVS truck found in the USMC base in Caspian Border. The same tan-colored turret is used for the stern CIWS on the USS Essex on the Noshahr Canals map.

The two F/A-18E Super Hornets on the improvised air strip in the same area.

Firing the F/A-18E's M61A2.

Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1 with ammo belt - 30x165mm

Inspecting the GSh-30-1 on the Su-35 in Portal - it is not really readily visible on the Su-57 due to being covered behind a panel as per that aircraft's stealthier design.

Hughes/Alliant Techsystems M230 chain gun - 30x113mm B

Inspecting the M230 on the AH-64 in Caspian Border. Currently, Portal lacks the actual USMC helicopters for its legacy Battlefield 3 content.

Shipunov 2A42 automatic cannon - 30x165mm

An Mi-28 with the 2A42 in one of the promotional images. The AN-94, QJY-88, and RPG-7 can also be seen in the hands of the Marines at the image's full size.

The 2A42 autocannon on a landed Mi-28N.

The BMD-4 in the Portal vehicles preview.

Inspecting the turret in-game.

The Beretta as seen on Irish's 2020 era uniform. The underbarrel M320 is also seen here, awkwardly tucked under his armpit.

Rao's "Ambushed" uniform with the M9 pistol.

The Glock in Lis's hip holster.

The Rorsch Mk-4 railgun in hand.

Side-view of the Rorsch in the Plus menu. A unique detail is also included: the character removes the battery responsible for the projectiles' movement.

Aiming down the unique hybrid optic.

Pressing a button prior to reloading.

Removing a magazine of sabot rounds.

The pseudo-Pneu Dart X-2 pistol in hand, equipped with healing projectiles.

Removing a used cylinder of healing darts.

Locking the dart in place with the knob.

Beretta 93R with brown grips - 9x19mm

The Beretta 93R in the loadout menu for Portal. Note the lengthened trigger guard, extended magazine, frame mounted fire selector switch, lengthened and ported barrel, and 93R specific slide serrations and slide geometry.

Inspecting the porta-johns out at the border outpost in Arica with the 93R.

Getting a view of the Raffica's sights.

Wrapping up a reload while retaining the first magazine.

Loading the Beretta from empty.

World War II Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP. This was an issued U.S. Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1

The M1911A1 in the Portal reveal trailer. Note the gloves of the character making it look like his fingers are clipping through the grip.

An Allied Jeep passenger armed with the M1911 pistol out in El Alamein.

Looking through the sights.

Reloading in the same manner as the base game's Glock pistol.

About to put away the used .45 mag.

On empty, the user glances at the chamber and then flicks out the empty magazine.

Sliding in a fresh mag from empty.

Colt Special Combat Government Model - .45 ACP

An actual MEU(SOC) for comparison - .45 ACP

A rear 3/4 view of the Battlefield 3 M1911 pistol. Note the Kimber style extended baseplate 8-round magazine.

The Colt out on the Noshahr tracks.

Aiming with the aid of the illuminated sights.

Beginning a tactical reload - here, ".45 ACP M1911A1" can be seen on the slide. The slide also has a more traditional style of vertical serrations commonly found on Colt-made 1911 variants.

Inserting another magazine from empty.

About to thumb the slide back into battery.

The MP-412 in the Portal loadout menu.

Holding the MP-412 REX revolver.

Ejecting some tiny .357 rounds at the start of the reload. The correct fired/unfired round count coding from the Webley Mk. VI in the previous two games is still used here, thankfully.

Right-handing in a speedloader.

Rather dramatically flinging the REX shut. It also allows for a rare revolver spin as an Easter Egg animation.

The Grach in the Portal loadout menu.

A US Army Recon armed with the MP-443 out in Valparaiso.

Sighting in the Grach with its illuminated sights.

Performing a tactical reload. A rare animation can occur where the pistol is put upside down as a new magazine gets inserted.

About to dump out the magazine upon emptying the pistol.

Thumbing the slide release at the end of the empty reload.

Espinoza with the Tracer Dart Gun.

Espinoza using the Tracer Dart Gun.

Walther P38 WWII dated with black grips - 9x19mm

The P38 in the Portal loadout creation menu.

A Wehrmacht soldier breaks up Mass with his P38 inside the church on the remastered Battle of the Bulge map.

Aiming the Walther - the hammer is uncocked and never moves.

The magazines also appear to be completely empty.

Loading the pistol from empty.

Interrupting the empty reload, or switching back to the pistol after ammo is out, results in the hammer disappearing entirely.

Webley Mk VI - .455 Webley.

The Webley Mk VI in hand.

View of the revolver from the Plus Menu.

The tracking of fired rounds functions properly, as it did in previous games and with the Taurus M44 and the MP412 REX. The Webley shares animations with the REX.

Inserting new .455 rounds.

Ready to flick it shut for the next six shots. Like the REX, the Mk VI can have a rare spin animation upon closing.

It also has two different reload styles, sometimes done with the left hand like in the previous two games.

Spawning in with the P90 - the user chambers the P90 Hardline style with his palm up.

The P90 out next to a T-90A MBT.

It uses the same BUIS as the DDM4 V7 and some of the other 2042 era weapons.

Reloading the dorsal magazine.

M1A1 Thompson with 30-round magazine - .45 ACP

The M1A1 Thompson in the Portal loadout menu.

A bewildered US soldier armed with his M1A1 Thompson in the future.

Espinoza holding an M1A1 Thompson.

Locking the Thompson's bolt back after spawning-in.

The Thompson out on an Allied airstrip in Egypt.

Aiming with the M1A1 style iron sights.

Reloading the Thompson in a more tacticool manner compared to its previous Battlefield appearances. The .45 rounds can be seen stacked inside the magazine.

The empty reload is of a bit more familiar style. The open bolt stays locked back, akin to Hardline.

The MP40 in the Portal loadout menu.

Holding the MP40 submachine gun.

Aiming with the wide rear notch and fully visible front sight + hood.

Performing a tactical reload with both 32-round magazines pressed together.

Performing the typical bolt lock-back when empty.

Loading in a new mag before sending the bolt back into battery.

Unfolding the stock in the PP-2000's deploy animation. This and the magazine swap animations are shared with the MP9 above.

Holding the PP-2000 as the USMC Recon with some rad skeleton gloves.

Aiming with a notch sight mounted at the front of the top rail.

Reloading with the default 20-round mag.

Pulling the charging handle.

Loading in an extended 44-rounder magazine.

Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum

Profile view of the Sten SMG.

Locking the Sten's action back upon spawning in.

A Wehrmacht soldier with the Sten gun out in not-North Africa.

Checking the irons against the sky.

Thumbing a partially-used mag out in a janky tacticool manner. The mag release is actually animated though, it can be seen easily doing an ADS reload.

On empty the user rather unceremoniously punches the release and shakes the magazine out.

New mag in, and the bolt is left handed back.

Browning Auto-5 with 23" barrel - 12 gauge

The Browning A-5 in the Portal menu.

The Browning's initial draw animation shows the character visibly chambering it.

An American soldier with the Auto-5.

Aiming the A-5 through the pleated receiver top and sight bead.

Upon empty the user underhands the first shell into the chamber, and drops the bolt.

The rest of the shells are left handed in. Again, a la BF1, the bolt carrier latch isn't held (as necessary for pre-1950s Auto-5s), though perhaps this can be chalked up to Portal not adhering to a high degree of historical accuracy.

Franchi SPAS-12 with butt hook attached to stock - 12 gauge

The SPAS-12 in the Portal reveal trailer.

Chambering the SPAS upon deployment.

Holding the SPAS-12 at the hip.

Pumping the SPAS; the animations are identical to the base game's 870. For whatever reason, the ejected shell is green despite what's seen above and in the reload below.

Thumbing in another shell. As with the previous games, the player never touches the carrier latch release button, which would make it impossible to load new shells in the tube.

M26 MASS mounted on M4 carbine - 12 gauge

The M26 MASS on the loadout table. The lower half of the KAC RAS should be removed to mount it properly, but the model just clips through instead.

An M16 with an EOTech sight and the M26.

Enabling the M26 involves flicking out the bolt handle, like in the original games.

It's only grasped by the magazine though, the user's right hand doesn't appear to be operating the trigger.

Reloading is done in Portal's rather typical janky fashion.

SWD/Cobray Street Sweeper with short barrel and top folding stock - 12 gauge

The Cobray in the loadout menu. It does have the front sight post that's seen on other Striker variants.

Spawning in with the "DAO-12" shows the stock being rapidly deployed.

The Street Sweeper in the USMC base on Caspian Border.

Aiming with the open rear trough and front post. The default Picatinny rail from the original version is gone now.

Reloading the drum with a 12 gauge shell.

Moving to wind the key, akin to BF4. Unlike BF4, the drum is correctly rotated counter-clockwise instead of clockwise.

5.56A-91 - 5.56x45mm NATO / 40mm

The 5.56 A-91 as seen in the BF3 weapons menu. It has the standard style of KBP grip compared to the original game's model.

Charging the A-91 initially.

Holding the carbine at the central Caspian control point.

Reloading - the animations appear to be the same from the "AC-42."

Tossing out the spent mag when empty.

Pre-production AEK-971 - 5.45x39mm

The prototype style AEK-971 of the Bad Company series (though less the GP-30 it's usually seen with). It appears the model mostly comes from the production variant, and did not account for the front trunnion bit not covered by the green handguard, given the floating rear sight. The receiver and dust cover are also of the later style - though the entire lower trigger assembly has the green color. The stock is also very undersized.

The black Battlefield 3 AEK-971. Compared to the model seen in BF3 and BF4, this model does have the correct style of wire stock.

The prototype AEK-971 in hand.

Plus view of the prototype.

Aiming with the prototype's sights - the front sight post is barely visible.

Tactically reloading the AEK - both models follow the same animation.

Reloading the AEK from empty.

Inserting a new magazine.

Chambering with the right hand, similar to BF4.

A USMC Support with the black BF3 AEK-971.

This variant has a red marking on the rear sight, and a thicker front sight post.

Customization view of the AEK-971. It shares the same animations with the Bad Company variant.

AKS-74U with earlier handguard - 5.45x39mm

Charging the AKS-74U initially - the Engineer then releases the bolt and gives the charging handle a forward assist-smack for good measure.

Patrolling just beyond the border checkpoint with the AKS-74U.

Aiming reveals a fairly accurate sight picture, with the correct orange п ("постоянная"; "constant") on the rear sight.

Reloading the AKS-74U with classic orange bakelite resin magazines.

Beginning a reload from empty.

Prior to Season 7, charging the AKS-74U is done with the right hand. Both reload animations were revamped after the update.

The AN-94 in the Portal loadout menu.

The AN-94 in first-person.

Performing a tactical reload with both 5.45 mags pressed together.

On empty, the Assault grabs the fresh magazine first and then flicks out the old one.

Pulling the charging handle underhanded, just like the base game's AK-12.

Unfolding out the AS Val's stock upon spawning.

Holding the Val under the lightpost for some better lighting.

Performing a mag swap with the short magazines.

Loading in a extended magazine from empty.

Working the action back with the right hand.

Colt Model 901 - 5.56x45mm NATO

The M16A3 in the Portal loadout menu.

Spawning in, a BF3 US Marine pulls the charging handle on his rifle...

...then somehow flips the upsidown fire selector over the nub above the safe setting to the full auto setting.

Holding the rifle at the sky. Note the large amount of open space in the carry handle - the rear sight's elevation knob should be just above the tops of the RIS locking screws, but it is significantly higher here.

Aiming down its iron sights. The elevation notch has a silver sharpie marking for zeroing reference, a nice detail.

In the Crysis 2 style customization menu, giving a nice profile view of the rifle.

Firing. Note that the empty casings appear to spawn from the barrel.

Sandwiching magazines while performing a tactical reload.

Smacking the bolt release while performing a full reload.

Third Generation FN SCAR-H CQC - 7.62x51mm NATO

The third-gen take on the BF3 SCAR-H. Note the underbarrel rail is of the 2042-era smart style. The only notable visual difference aside from the EGLM, accessories, and coloration from the "SFAR" appears to be that the unused charm mount is slightly angled on this model.

Charging the SCAR-H faster than the Engineer's hand can render in fully.

The SCAR under some moody lighting on Noshahr Canals.

Performing a regular style reload, the animations are identical to the SFAR.

Upon empty the Engineer cants the SCAR over to view the chamber...

...reloads with both magazines sandwiched together...

...and rechambers by tugging on the charging handle.

Gewehr 43 - 7.92x57mm Mauser

The vanilla Gewehr 43 from the Engineer kit.

View of the G43 in the Plus Menu.

It reloads in the modern tacticool style, with both mags clasped together. This particular animation is shared with the SVD.

Unlike Battlefield V, the bolt is hardcoded to lock back when entirely out of ammo.

Pressing the mag release button to remove a dry magazine...

...and inserting a new one.

Racking the charging handle to chamber a round. Unlike the tactical reload animation, the empty reload is taken from the base game's Saiga 12K.

Gewehr 43 with ZF 4 scope - 7.92x57mm Mauser

The Scout's variant with the ZF4 optic mounted.

Heckler & Koch G3A3 with slimline handguard - 7.62x51mm NATO

The G3A3 in the Portal loadout menu.

A Bad Company 2 Assault trooper out on a Chilean banana farm with the G3A3.

Aiming with the familiar HK roller-delayed series sights.

Performing a tactical reload with both magazines in hand.

Locking the bolt back upon empty...

...kicking out the old magazine and then replacing it...

...and HK slapping the bolt back into battery.

Heckler & Koch HK416 with 14.5 inch barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO

The HK416 in the Portal loadout menu.

Charging the HK416 initially...

...and then the forward assist is given a good smack.

The 416 inside the well deck of the USS Essex.

Aiming with the original old pattern of HK-series diopter sights. The Portal model uses the folding front sight post from BF3 and MoH: Warfighter rather than the RIS front sight from Bad Company 2 and other titles in the series.

Performing a mag swap - the safety can be seen on here; the animations are identical to the MCX-SPEAR.

Dumping out an empty STANAG. Somehow the selector is set to semi-auto and not safe.

Mashing the bolt release after inserting another.

Older version of Heckler & Koch XM8 - 5.56x45mm

The XM8 in the Portal loadout menu. The PCAP slots are covered by standard 1913 rails. The magazine model is now based on Magpul G36 magazines.

Chambering the XM8 initially.

Taking in the local lens flare with the XM8 rifle.

Aiming - the rear sight appears to be a cut-down MP7 rear peep sight rather than the G36C-style rear sight that was used in the original games.

Inserting one when empty.

The user inspects the right side while releasing the bolt.

Heckler & Koch XM8 Compact Carbine - 5.56x45mm

Espinoza holding the XM8 Compact Carbine.

The XM8 Compact Carbine in the Portal menu for Bad Company 2 loadouts. As with the full size XM8, it uses Magpul G36 magazines instead of transparent mags now.

The XM8C out in the Arica port area.

The iron sights are identical to the other variants, aside from the reduced sight radius that brings the front closer in.

Flicking out an empty mag...

...in with a new one, and then releasing the bolt.

IMI Tavor MTAR-21 with Meprolight red dot sight - 5.56x45mm NATO

Profile view of the MTAR-21 as seen in the post-round unlock screen.

Chamber-checking the MTAR-21 upon deployment.

A Russian Engineer on valley patrol with the MTAR.

Aiming - it's got a different rear sight compared to prior incarnations.

Its reload animation suite is shared from the A-91/AC-42, though the mag swap is barely visible.

Working the charging handle. The bolt release was used in the previous games.

Attachments+ view of the M-Tavor with a PEQ uniquely mounted on the lower top segment and a suppressor.

An actual M2 Carbine, for comparison - .30 Carbine

Loadout preview of the "M2" Carbine; note the lack of a fire selector on the left side of the receiver, just behind the upper handguard. Why the devs deliberately chose to take an existing M2 model (muzzle brake and all) and remove the one thing that distinguishes it as an M2 is anybody's guess.

The "M2" Carbine in-game.

Reloading with two thirty-round magazines clasped together.

Smacking in a new one from empty.

Pinky-tugging the locked bolt forward; while 30-round M1 Carbine mags do indeed lock open the carbine's bolt, they do so by simply blocking the bolt with the follower, rather than tripping an internal hold-open. As such, the magazine is the only thing actually locking the bolt open, and removing it causes the bolt to immediately drop back into battery instead of staying open the whole time like it does in-game.

M1 Garand with leather M1917 sling - .30-06

The M1 Garand in the Portal loadout menu.

The soldier running to the left holds a Garand.

The M1 Garand inside a barracks in the UK base at El Alamein.

Looking through the Garand's sights.

Pinging out the en-bloc clip after squeezing eight shoots through the open door. As of Season 5, the Garand's iconic ping noise has been bugged, and it does not play when the en-bloc clip ejects out of the gun.

Lastly, the bolt is smacked forward after sticking.

Manually ejecting another en-bloc without using the release button. The clip also appears to be modeled full.

M1C with M84 scope - .30-06

Preview of the M1C setup.

The classic M16A2 in all of its late Cold War glory.

The Kobra sight attaches via a dogleg/gooseneck rail system, a common configuration in the late 90s and early 2000s, before the widespread adoption of AR platform rifles with built in rail systems.

Although it fortunately flicks back into burst, somehow over the selector stopper outdents.

Aiming with the classic A2 irons.

Changing out STANAG magazines.

Somewhat awkwardly tapping in a new one from empty.

And then palming the bolt release tab.

Remington ACR with 16.5" barrel and 5-sided handguard - 5.56x45mm NATO

A preview of the ACR's model in the Portal Gear menu.

Pulling the charging handle in the ACR's deployment animation.

Standing by a canal with the ACR.

Perfoming the game's fairly standard non-empty reload with another PMag.

Clapping the bolt release.

Sturmgewehr 44 - 7.92x33mm Kurz

The STG 44 in the Portal loadout menu.

A promotional image featuring classes from Battlefield 1942, used when selecting factions in the Portal rules creator. The German Assault on the right is carrying an StG 44.

Getting a good view of the StG-44 out on some farmland in the Ardennes.

The Sturmgewehr's iron sights, virtually identical to Battlefield V although the dust cover appears to be permanently shut. This screenshot is now outdated. In the latest version, the dust cover is open and the size of the iron sight has been changed.

Reloading - inserting a new magazine.

Charging the StG. The animations appear to be somewhat burgled from the base game's SVCh.

Looking across the Arica town with the Barrett M95.

Operating the Barrett's bolt after firing a shot.

It reloads in a bit less dramatic fashion compared to the original games.

Cycling the bolt again on an empty reload.

Crawling with the M95's bipod deployed, which apparently gives the rifle a thorough coat of dust.

Barrett M98B with Harris bipod - .338 Lapua Magnum

Holding an unscoped Barrett M98B. Previously, the BUIS sights were not available, which lead to aiming only showing the rail system when no optics are equipped.

Aiming down the sights. This is similar to the DDM4V7 PRO and SVCh's iron sights.

Holding the M98B with the BORS system.

Flicking out the used magazine, similar to the TRG M10's.

Chambering a new round. This animation is different from the TRG's.

GOL Sniper Magnum - .338 Lapua Magnum

Observing the lighthouse at Valparaiso with the GOL.

Aiming at the faint silhouette of a destroyer far off on the horizon.

Performing a supporting-hand reload. An added function from the original game is that the bipod is now usable.

Tossing aside an empty magazine.

As with the TRG, the user then grabs the bolt handle, shoulders the rifle, and then works the action.

Karabiner 98k - 7.92x57mm Mauser

The Karabiner 98k in the Portal loadout menu.

The Kar98k in the Portal setup menu. Note that like Battlefield 1942, the scoped and unscoped versions are separate weapons.

A Wehrmacht engineer equipped with the Karabiner 98k looks upon the river running through the Battle of the Bulge map.

Looking down the rifle's sights.

As with its BFV incarnation, the striker functions correctly.

The Karabiner only reloads with loose rounds.

Karabiner 98k Sniper with Zeiss ZF42 scope - 7.92x57mm Mauser

Looking skyward with the scoped Kar98k.

Aiming with the scope. It appears to be an updated model of the ZF42 from BFV, with an added rubber eyepiece.

Reloading the sniper variant.

Karabiner 98k with ZF4 - 7.92x57mm Mauser

As of an update, the Kar 98k sniper rifle can swap to a ZF4 scope via the Plus menu, though it's attempting to impersonate a ZF41 given the far-up mounting.

The view through the ZF4.

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I - .303 British

Lee-Enfield No. 4 Mk I (T) - .303 British

The Lee-Enfield in the Portal setup menu. Note that despite having a scope, it is identifiable as the Mk I and not the Mk I (T) via the stock.

The Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk I in the Portal loadout menu.

Wielding the Lee-Enfield No.4 sniper rifle.

Scanning the sky through the No.32 scope.

Topping off the Enfield's magazine with a .303 cartridge.

About to chamber the rifle.

The WWII-era Engineer's No. 4 rifle with iron sights.

The view down the sights.

Plus menu view of the Lee-Enfield, not that it has anything to equip - sadly, not even the bayonet.

M24 sniper rifle with 10-round detachable magazine - 7.62x51mm NATO

Chambering the M24 upon spawning-in.

Overlooking Arica with the M24A2.

The view through the standard scope.

Reloading the rifle, the same as the other modern bolt-action rifles.

Ditching an empty magazine.

M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle - 7.62x51mm NATO

Charging the M39 EMR in its deployment animation.

Holding the EMR inside the USS Essex.

Aiming through the iron sights and open slot through the RIS mount.

Reloading with another M14 magazine.

Charging the rifle. The charging handle doesn't move at all, bafflingly.

Inspecting a properly kitted-out EMR.

SVD Dragunov - 7.62x54mm R

Charging the SVD upon spawn, underhanded style.

Looking at the sky with the Dragunov.

ADS of the default iron sights.

Kicking out the empty magazine tacticool-style when empty.

Rechambering the rifle underhanded. Unfortunately, the bolt doesn't lock back when empty, which is odd as the original game got this detail correct.

Performing a tactical reload with the PSO-1 scope equipped. The new magazine clips through the scope mount here as well.

Another view of both mags sandwiched together.

Looking through the PSO-1 reveals the reticle is fully illuminated. Unlike 2042's PSO-1M3, the PSO-1 of the SVD (and the PKS-07 7x optic) have the correct 1.7m stadiametric rangefinder.

The Bren Mark II in the weapon preview, floating just annoyingly high enough to cut off the top of the magazine.

A British soldier with the Bren Mark II out in the El Alamein wastes. Unlike in BFV, the carry handle isn't used as a foregrip; instead, the player character rather inadvisably grips the weapon's gas tube.

The Bren's empty reload starts with locking the bolt back...

...thumbing out the magazine...

...and in with a new one from up high.

Set up on sandbags with the Bren.

Heckler & Koch XM8 LMG - 5.56x45mm

Holding an XM8 LMG equipped with an ACOG scope.

The ACOG's reticle is a simplified open chevron with ballistic drop holds.

Sliding in a new one from empty.

Chambering the heavy XM8.

M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06

The BAR in the Portal loadout menu. It added some new details on the recevier on the basis of Battlefield V

A promotional image featuring classes from Battlefield 1942, used when selecting factions in the Portal rules creator. The American Assault second from the right is carrying an M1918A2 BAR. Note the misplaced bipod and carrying handle - the latter is absent in-game, which is era appropriate for WWII.

Charging the BAR upon spawning in.

Taking the M1918A2 out for a stroll at the local oasis.

A clear view down the BAR's iron sights.

Reloading with both twenty-round magazines pressed together.

Replacing the mag in the empty reload.

Pulling the bolt handle back again.

M240B with newer style lower handguard (designed to attach RIS rails via hex nut) - 7.62x51mm NATO.

Espinoza with an M240B. Unfortunately, it still has the belt box affixed in the wrong spot, as the M240 ejects downwards, making this a poor choice of belt box mounting locations.

The M240 Bravo in the railyard area at Noshahr.

The view down the M240's sights.

Locking the bolt back at the start of a reload. Although this and other portal machine guns are externally animated with the correct manual of arms...

Internally, the model's bolt and pawl feed roller remain stubbornly in the closed bolt position. Also note the rather suboptimal spot that the belt box is being mounted to.

Pulling out the new 7.62 NATO belt links.

Closing the top cover at the end of the animation.

M249 Paratrooper - 5.56x45mm

The BC2 M249 Para with the heat shield and bipod.

And the BF3 M249. Note this model differs from the original, which had the Mk.46 barrel length, and used a 100-round cloth belt sack.

The M249 Paratrooper variant out at the Valparaiso fishing village at low tide.

Aiming - unlike in the original series, the carry handle is flipped down and out of the sight picture.

Empty reloads begin with working the charging handle.

And the top cover is opened without actuating the latches at the rear. Also like the M240, the bolt and carrier are closed instead of locked backwards as the animations should have left them.

Handling the black belt box.

The BF3 full length SAW along the actual Caspian border zone.

Palming the charging handle forward.

Loading in a new 5.56 belt.

Smacking the top cover closed.

Taking on the Valparaiso jungle with "The Pig."

Removing an empty green belt box. Note the folded bipod; it can be deployed using the underbarrel functionality. Same as with the M240 and M249, the bolt is not locked back although it should be due to the animations.

M60E4 Mk.43 with Picatinny rails, RIS foregrip, and ammo belt - 7.62x51mm NATO

Latching in a new brown belt box. Same as with the normal M60, the bolt isn't locked back in the model though it should have been from the animations.

Handling the new ammo belt.

About to shut the top cover. Although the proper manual of arms was followed for the animations, if an operator were to slam the top cover shut with the bolt locked forward like this in reality, it would severely damage the feed pawls of the gun.

M203 grenade launcher - 40x46mm

The classic M16A2/M203 combo in Portal.

The M203 in use with the leaf sight flipped up. Here, the Assault uses his left hand to fire the M203; in the original game, it was fired with the right hand.

It isn't used though, probably due to the issues of having the leaf sight heavily blocked if the gooseneck Kobra or ACOG is equipped.
