Guns of Honor

A long list of guns appropriate to the 1930:s. In general, guns made before 1890 have been excluded, though they can still be fund as antiques. Some very popular older guns are included.

Many weapons must be worked or cocked manually to reload. All weapons not characterized as double-action or auto loading can only attack one target each action.

Revolvers

The first workable revolvers were based on Samuel Colt's patents of 1836. These described a single-action caplock revolver, with side-gate front-loading.

The first revolvers to use cartridges were the pinfire designs pioneered by Lefaucheux, but it was the design by Smith & Wesson that stuck.

Many American revolvers carry the labels "Army" or "Navy". These names do not necessarily mean that the weapons in question were ever used by any military force. Rather, it seems that .36" guns were called Navy, while any .44" or .45" revolver could be an Army model.

Colt Single Action Army

Damage: 10
Concealability: Trenchcoat
Ammo: 6
Introduced: 1873

Extremely popular revolver that "won the west". Colt used it to steal the American market from Smith & Wesson, as they were busy with their Russian order. It existed in several models, with different names. The Frontier was chambered for .44-40 WCF, while the Peacemaker and Cavalry models both used .45 Long Colt. All have the same stats, except that the Cavalry is 5 cm longer and slightly heavier. The Buntline Special from 1876 was an extremely rare limited-issue variety of the Peacemaker, with 40 cm barrel and attachable stocks.

Enfield No2 Mk1

Damage: 9
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 6

Damage: 9
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 7
Introduced: 1893
Caliber: 7,62x38R Nagant

A unique revolver, in that it was gas-tight. The revolver moved forward and mated the barrel with the special necks of the cartridges. Thus, it got higher muzzle energy than normal revolvers, and could be silenced. It was made in both single and double action, with the latter reserved for officers. It continued in service through both world wars.

Smith & Wesson M10 M&P

Damage: 9
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 6
Introduced: 1902
Caliber: .38 Special

Smith & Wesson police revolver, firing a seriously underpowered cartridge. Despite its shortcomings, it were adopted by an enormous number of US police departments, and were very common in its day. The later M64 M&P is indistinguishable in game terms.

Smith & Wesson No3 Russian

Damage: 10
Concealability: Trenchcoat
Ammo: 6
Introduced: 1870
Caliber: .44 Henry

The first big-bore Smith & Wesson revolver was Smith & Wesson No3 American. It was only made in about 1000 copies for the army, before production of the Russian started. It was also made in .44 American, in which case it is identical to the No3 Russian.

The latter gun was created in 1871 for export to Russia. During a visit to America, the Tsar was greatly impressed by the S&W revolvers carried by his guide, and decided to adopt them for the Imperial Army. In all 215.714 copies of this gun were made until 1874. The order was so huge that S&W had to ignore the American market while it lasted, and it was taken over by Sam Colt and his SAA. The cartridge is known as .44 Russian when used in these weapons.

Smith & Wesson Safety Hammerless

Damage: 8
Concealability: Pocket
Ammo: 5
Introduced: 1887
Caliber: .38 S&W

Webley Mk I

Damage: 9
Concealability: Trenchcoat
Ammo: 6
Introduced: 1887
Caliber: .455 Webley

Large British service revolver used in both world wars. It has a reputation as a fiend to fire, but the cartridge is actually quite sedate. The Mk VI is a durable and well made version of the old Webley, used in WW I and II, and still in service with police and third world military forces.

Webley-Fosbury

Damage: 9
Concealability: Trenchcoat
Ammo: 6
Introduced: ca 1890
Caliber: .455 Webley

British self-cocking top-break revolver. Recoil caused the barrel and drum assembly to slide backwards, and grooves on the cylinder rotated it and cocked the mechanism. It was made famous by The Maltese Falcon.

Autoloading Pistols

The sidearm of the 20th century is the semiautomatic pistol. It combines sleek lines with large ammunition capacity, and fast reloading.

Most designs use recoil to move the action, either with straight blowback or by locking the bolt to the barrel. The locking systems are varied, most using swinging links or rotating bolt heads.

Beretta M20

Damage: 7
Concealability: Pocket
Ammo: 8+1
Introduced: 1920?
Caliber: .25 ACP

Small double action "ladies" pistol by Beretta. The M21 is chambered for .22 LR instead. Neither gun has any reasonable use for real men or women.

Beretta M34

Damage: 9
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 7+1
Introduced: 1934

Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 7+1
Introduced: 1910
Caliber: .45 ACP

Standard US sidearm from WW I to the eighties, when it was to be replaced by the Beretta 92F.

Many add-ons and accessories are made, including a 30-round drum.

FN Browning .25

Damage: 7
Concealability: Pocket
Ammo: 10+1
Caliber: .25 ACP

This is a small, readily concealable automatic that introduced the .25 ACP cartridge. Famed for not affecting their targets, no reasonable use can be found for these truly pathetic guns, though others like it are still made.

FN Browning GP35

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 13+1
Introduced: 1935
Caliber: 9x19 P

The Grand Puissance is a highly successful pistol that was the last design of John Browning. It was the first high-capacity pistol, and the first Browning to chamber a powerful cartridge. A 20-round magazine is also available. It is manufactured and sold all over the world. It was adopted as the official sidearm of all NATO countries and all members of the Commonwealth, as well as many terrorist and counter-terrorist organizations.

FN Browning mle 1900

Damage: 8
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 7+1
Introduced: 1900

The first automatic pistol designed by John Browning. It introduced the .32 ACP cartridge, known in Europe as 7,65mm Browning. The mle 1910 is somewhat improved mechanically and 2 cm shorter, but is otherwise the same gun.

Glisenti M10

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 7+1
Introduced: 1910
Caliber: 9mm Glisenti

The 9mm Glisenti was the standard Italian pistol round from 1910 to the end of WW I. It was replaced by pistols firing the measly .380 ACP, at the same time as other countries went for the GP35 Browning.

Kenju Type 94

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 6+1
Introduced: 1937
Caliber: 8x21 Nambu

Luger P-08

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 8+1
Introduced: 1904
Caliber: 9x19 P

One of the most famous and easily recognizable handguns ever produced in number. It has a unique toggle action, and it jams easily if it gets a little dirty. It was the gun that introduced the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge, when the earlier 7,63mm bottleneck bullet was expanded as far as it would go.

The long-barreled P-08/19 Artillery Luger was issued to German artillerists during both world wars. It came with an attachable shoulder stock and an optional 32-round snail-drum magazine. This can be used with other Lugers, but they get excessively clumsy with it.

Mauser C96 "Broomhandle"

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 10
Introduced: 1896
Caliber: 7,63x25

This was the first successful automatic pistol design. Different versions were in production until WW II. Some of the later ones were capable of full-auto fire. They were sold with a hollow attachable stock, that could also serve as a holster. The cartridge is actually identical to the 7,62x25 of the Russian Tokarevs.

The M1916 is a wartime model using the then-standard 9x19mm ammo. Apart from reducing the clip size to 8, it has the same stats.

Mauser HSc

Taisho 14

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 8+1
Introduced: 1909
Caliber: 8x21 Nambu

This is an improved Taisho 04, but it retains serious design flaws. Reloading of a magazine is very slow, and it might jam when loaded. M14 Nambu is probably the same gun by a different name.

Tula-Tokarev TT-33

Damage: 10
Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 8+1
Introduced: 1933
Caliber: 7,62x25

Standard pistol of the Soviet military. It fires the powerful SMG round, and has a sharp recoil. Also notable for its lack of a safety catch.

Concealability: Jacket
Ammo: 8+1
Caliber: 9x19 P

Standard pistol of Wehrmacht officers in WW II. It was designed to be a more rugged replacement for the Luger, and was adopted in 1938.

Introduced: 1931
Caliber: .380 ACP

The Pistole Polizei Kriminal is a small and easily concealed pistol for police undercover use. Used extensively (but not without protest) by James Bond. It has sold well in recent years, as it is by far the smallest automatic in a "large" caliber.

Submachine guns

Submachine guns are full-auto pistol-caliber firearms. The first SMG:s were well made in machined steel, and could easily last a lifetime. They were all replaced by simpler guns as the production requirements of WW II became obvious.

Bergmann MP 18/1

Damage: 10
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 20

An early, expensive and solid SMG.

Lanchester Mk1

Damage: 10
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 50
Introduced: 1939
Caliber: 9x19 P

A British improvement of the Bergmann, it was one of the best made and most beautiful SMG:s of all time. Brass fittings and walnut stocks combine with blued steel to create harmony. Of course, it was fiendishly expensive to make.

MAB 38A

Damage: 11
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 40
Introduced: 1938
Caliber: 9mm M38A

The standard Italian SMG of WW II, also known as the Beretta M38A. It used a special high-velocity 9mm cartridge. It was redesigned as the MAB 38/42 in 1942, so that it could be produced in larger numbers at lower cost. Logistics dictated that it be available only in 9mm Parabellum (thus a more ordinary damage value of 10). It was exported both to Germany and to Rumania.

MP35/I

Damage: 10
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 32
Introduced: 1935
Caliber: 9x19 P

The standard SMG of the Waffen-SS, it was based on the Bergmann.

MP38, MP40 "Schmeisser"

Damage: 10
Concealability: Trenchcoat
Ammo: 32
Introduced: 1938
Caliber: 9x19 P

Famous SMG often called the Schmeisser, after a designer who worked for a different company. It was the first SMG with a folding stock. The original MP38 was to expensive to make, and production changed to the MP40 in 1940. This was the first SMG to use steel stampings instead of machined parts.

Thompson M1928A1

Damage: 10
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 30
Introduced: 1922
Caliber: .45 ACP

This was the first model of the Thompson, sold by mail order in the USA as it came too late to enter WW I. The Thompson is available with 100 round drum magazines, as well. With the drum, it became that famous gangster weapon, the "Chicago typewriter". Drums have a concealability of Trench Coat, and in any situation where the negative dice comes out as a six, two extra negative dice should be rolled instead of the usual one, increasing the chance of a fumble. When the FBI were allowed to carry guns in 1932, they immediately adopted the Thompson. The M1A1 is the WW II version. It was well liked by it's users, but too complicated and expensive to produce. It could not use the drum magazine.

Breechloading Rifles

Single-shot breechloaders were extensively used in and immediately after the American civil war. They were faster to load than muzzleloaders, and more reliable. When cartridges became common they fell from favor, but they have remained in special cases, such as heavy sniper rifles.

Holland & Holland Nitro Express

Damage: 15**
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 2
Introduced: 1903
Caliber: 600 H&H

The .600 H&H cartridges are as large as cigars, and were very rare even when the gun was still being made.

Generic Double-barrel

Damage: 14**
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 2
Caliber: various calibers

Over-and-under and side-by-side double hunting rifles are made by most status manufacturers. Most have the same stats, though damage will vary with caliber, as will price.

Winchester M1873 Rifle

Damage: 10*
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 15
Introduced: 1873
Caliber: .44-40 WCF

By making the receiver in iron, the Winchester rifle got much sturdier, and could handle better loadings. Winchester made 720.610 copies of the M1873, and together with the Colt SAA, it is known as "the weapon that won the west". An important reason for this was that both weapons could fire the same ammo. In the American outback this was a powerful selling point, as sources of ammo could be few and far between. A Carbine was also made. It has a 19" barrel, compared to 24" for the rifle.

Winchester M94

Damage: 13*
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 6
Introduced: 1894
Caliber: .30-30 JSP

Bolt-Action Rifles

Bolt-action rifles were the military norm from their invention about 1880 to WW II. They are strong, easy to use and very accurate. High-precision sniper rifles are still made with bolt-action. Bolt-action rifles cannot target several people with one attack, because of limited rate of fire.

Introduced: 1886
Caliber: 8x50R

This was an enormously influential rifle, as it was the first to adopt a small-bore fully jacketed cartridge with smokeless powder. Suddenly, all other armies were fielding obsolete equipment and had to rush to catch up. It was made in many versions, including carbines and several rifles. The first models had a tube magazine, but later ones had Mannlicher-style box magazines, and were called Berthiers or Mannlicher-Berthiers.

Lee-Enfield No1

Damage: 13**
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 10
Introduced: 1902
Caliber: .303 Br

The SMLE, or Short Magazine Lee-Enfield, changed the magazine on the Lee-Metford, enabling stripper clips to be used.

Skilled shooters could get off 40 shots per minute, including loading time.

Lee-Metford

Damage: 13**
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 8

Mannlicher M1886

Damage: 13**
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 5
Introduced: 1886
Caliber: 11mm M77

These Austrian rifles were not true bolt-actions, in that the bolt was pulled straight back without twisting. The head rotated when pulled, unlocking the breech. The Mannlicher M1888/90 is a development of the M1886 that included a new 8x50mmR cartridge with full metal jacket and smokeless powder. The M1895 is very similar to the M1888/90, and was the Austrian rifle during WW I.

Shotguns

Shotguns are smoothbore sporting weapons, primarily intended for bird hunting. The most common load is many small pellets that spread to catch a moving target, but slugs are available for marauding bears.

Shotguns have a large intimidation potential, and have always been used against human targets as well. With buckshot or slug they are among the most efficient weapons in jungle, trenches, and other confined areas.

Basic stats assume buckshot or slug loads. Birdshot loads do three less damage. All shotguns have short range.

Generic Blunderbuss

Damage: 10
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 1
Introduced: ca 1700
Caliber: 8G worth of scrap metal

When the British coach-service became widespread, highway robberies soon followed. These wide-flaring weapons were issued to the coachmen for self-defense. Usually loaded with buckshot, they could in fact be filled with just about anything.

In a cinematic game, this beauty takes just five shots to reload.

Generic Double

Ammo: 2
Caliber: 10G, 12G or 20G

Any one of dozens of different over-and-under or side-by-side shotguns. There has been a bewildering variety of models, but most of the differences are a matter of exterior decoration.

Damage: 12
Concealability: Unconcealable
Ammo: 5+1
Introduced: 1893
Caliber: 12G 00

This pump-action design was reworked in 1897, but all changes could be retrofitted to existing guns and none are great enough to matter in game terms. The gun has been used in both world wars and by numerous criminals. As the M1917 Trench Gun it was a combat shotgun in WW I, fitted with a bayonet. The Germans strongly disliked these weapons, and often had anyone who used one shot for breaches against the rules of war and the Hague convention.

Combination Guns

A popular hunter's weapon is to combine a shotgun with a rifle. These weapons are usually two-barreled over/under guns, or three-barreled drillings, with one or two rifle barrels. The rifle barrel can be chambered for any one of the legion of different small-caliber rifle cartridges, but usually a (13**) like 7,92mm Mauser or .30'06. The shotgun barrels are 20G or 12G, and are usually unable to fire slugs due to a fixed hunting choke.
