Nice, but where's the trigger?

Black Mesa (2012)

Black Mesa is a video game utilizing the Source engine to re-create the original Half-Life. It was released on September 14, 2012.

The following weapons appear in the mod Black Mesa:


Glock 17

The standard pistol returns from the PC version, this time with tritium illuminated sights. It looks like a Glock 17, however, the model's texture says it's a Glock 19.

Colt Python

The Colt Python makes a comeback from the original game. On the side it says ".357 PYTHON". The secondary fire key toggles the iron sights. It is also worth noting that the screw placement above the trigger guard is completely wrong for a Python. When aiming down the sights, the firing mode seems to change from double-action to single-action, as Freeman can be heard manually cocking the hammer back after each shot.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3 with M203PI Grenade Launcher

The MP5A3 in the game is modeled after the weapon seen in End of Days, including the barrel shroud and M203PI grenade launcher. It is found in the hands of Special Forces in Chapter 5 and onward, and fires in 3-round burst when the mouse is clicked. It should be noted that the front sight of the weapon lacks the pin, and the reload animation is incorrect, as it shows the cocking handle locking back automatically by itself when the magazine is released. This may just be a design oversight to keep the animation simple and fast.

Franchi SPAS-12

The SPAS-12 makes its return in Black Mesa. The one in Gordon's hands has no stock, but the world model of the shotgun still has the stock in folded position. The SPAS-12 also retains its "fire both barrels" feature seen in HL and HL2.

Unknown/hybrid Crossbow

An unknown or composite magazine-fed Crossbow appears in Black Mesa. Arguably one of the best weapons in the game due to its 1-hit-kill capability on almost anything, it comes equipped with a scope and 5 round magazine.

Futuristic Armbrust ATW

The futuristic version of the Armbrust ATW seen in Half-Life returns in Black Mesa with similar functions. The alternate fire button switches between laser-guided mode and "blind-fire" mode.

Mk 2 Hand Grenade

The Mk 2 hand grenade can be found in abundance throughout the game as early as Chapter 3. Special Forces marines occasionally will use these to flush the player out of their hiding spot.

Browning M2HB

The Browning M2HB appears as a usable emplaced weapon in the mod. It is mostly seen in small fortified bunkers mounted on tripods. All the M2's have unlimited ammunition and can completely dismember aliens and humans with one shot. Special Forces marines may use the weapon against the player if it isn't already occupied.

Cut Weapons

Heckler & Koch MP5A5 with GP-30 Grenade Launcher

The Heckler & Koch MP5A5 with a Russian GP-30 grenade launcher, RIS handguard, EOTech holographic sight and MP5K-PDW-style side-folding stock was cut from the final version of the mod. (Note that the M203 or GP-30 launchers are not capable of being mounted on an unmodified MP5 variant in real life.)

Colt M4A1 with M203 Grenade Launcher

The Colt M4A1 (substituting the Model 727 seen as the HD and PS2 replacement of the MP5 in the original game) was cut from the mod during development.
