Call of Duty: Black Ops III is the twelfth installment in the Call of Duty series, and the fourth main entry in the Black Ops sub-franchise (the first being World at War). It is developed by Treyarch and published by Activision for the PC, PS4, XBoX One and Wii U and will also be released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 by Beenox and Mercenary Technology. The game was released on November 6th, 2015.

The following weapons appear in the video game Call of Duty: Black Ops III:

Handguns

"MR6"

The MR6 is a futuristic handgun fitted with a laser aiming module. It looks similar to the Lawgiver II pistol from Judge Dredd, which was a Beretta 92 fitted in a plastic shell. According to a digital readout on the side of the gun, it is chambered in .40 S&W.

The Lawgiver II from the 1995 film Judge Dredd.

"RK5"

Seems to be loosely based on the Heckler & Koch USP Match with an extended magazine and appears to be two-toned. Fires in three round bursts.

Heckler & Koch USP Match - 9x19mm

"LCAR-9"

The "LCAR-9" is a fully-automatic machine pistol that seems to be based primarily on the VBR-Belgium PDW.

VBR-Belgium PDW - 7.92x24mm

Sub-machine Guns

Sten Mk III

The Sten Mk III appears in Zombies mode. Like the Sten Mk II from most previous games, it is incorrectly held from the magazine rather than the handguard, magwell or the assembly in front of the trigger guard.

Sten Mk III - 9x19mm

Heckler & Koch MP7A1

The exact same MP7A1 model from Call of Duty: Black Ops II appears as a "hidden" weapon in the PC files. It is most likely a placeholder.

"Kuda"

The "Kuda" is a "futurised" Heckler & Koch UMP.

Heckler & Koch UMP45 - .45 ACP

"Weevil"

The general shape of the "Weevil" appears to be primarily based on the FN P90 TR. Oddly, from the side it appears to actually be some kind of pistol with a suppressor and LAM reminiscent of the Heckler & Koch Mark 23 mounted in a large carbine stock, though precisely how a pistol could be made to feed from above or work with the stock primarily attaching to the slide is not clear.

FN P90 TR with optics removed - 5.7x28mm

Airsoft Heckler & Koch MK23 Mod 0 Phase II Prototype (note front cocking serrations, deleted from production models) with Tokyo Marui replica of a Knight's Armament suppressor and prototype Laser Aiming Module - (fake) .45 ACP

"Weevil" on the loadout screen. Note the "pistol" section can be clearly defined from the rest of the gun.

"Razorback"

The Razorback appears to be based on the Thor PDW, a fictional weapon using a TDI Vector-style offset recoil mechanism created by Crytek designer Pascal Eggert.

"Vesper"

The "Vesper" is an even more futuristic version of the modified Jian She Type-05 that appeared in Black Ops II.

Jian She Type-05 - 9x19mm

"Pharo"

The "Pharo" is a futuristic SMG that fires four-round bursts automatically (that is, you can hold down the trigger and it'll keep firing four-round bursts). Visually, it mostly resembles the Ruger MP9, but it also appears to be a spiritual successor to the MSMC from Black Ops 2.

Ruger MP9 with stock folded - 9x19mm

Modern Sub Machine Carbine - 5.56×30mm MINSAS

"VMP"

A sub-machine gun based on the Beretta Mx4 Storm.

Shotguns

Remington 870

Another hidden weapon from the PC files. It uses the exact same futureized tactical Remington 870 model from Black Ops II, like the MP7. It is most likely a placeholder as well.

Remington 870 fitted with a pistol grip, Surefire light, and M4-type stock - 12 gauge

'KRM-262'

A shotgun, going by the name KRM-262, is seen being used in the Multiplayer Reveal Trailer. It appears to be somewhat based on the FP6 from Ghosts, with some added stuff to it. Interesting to note that the shells are stored on the right side of the gun, covering the ejection port. In another interesting design choice, the shells are inserted on top of the gun ala the shotgun from the Halo series, except the top part actually opens up for the shells to be inserted.

"Haymaker 12"

"205 Brecci"

A semi-automatic magazine-fed shotgun.

"Argus"

A futuristic lever-action shotgun based on the Winchester Model 1887 with a wire stock. In lieu of the tube magazine is this weird rotary magazine that the player inserts into the receiver.

Assault Rifles

H&K HK416

This unnamed render based on the Heckler & Koch HK416 appears in the game files, but it is presumably replaced by the more futuristic-looking ICR-1 below.

The unnamed HK416 rifle. WA presumably stands for the in-game Winslow Accord, which is a coalition of Western nations including the United States, so it's likely that this could have been the standard-issue rifle for the US military.

"ICR-1"

The more futuristic version of the HK416 that replaced the render above, and given its relatively low damage and high accuracy, it is a spiritual successor to the M27 in Black Ops 2.

"KN-44"

The futuristic AK variant formerly known as the "ARK-7". It is chiefly based on the AK-12 featured in the previous two installments, but has distinct features such as a 7.62-styled magazine and a more diagonal stock similar to that of the original AK-47.

AK-12 - 7.62x39mm

"Man-O-War"

"HVK-30"

"Sheiva"

"M8A7"

This rifle appears to be a "futurised" Heckler & Koch SL8 and seems to be the successor to the "M8A1" from Call of Duty: Black Ops II

Heckler & Koch SL8-1 Tactical Match Rifle - 5.56x45mm

"XR-2"

A futuristic bullpup rifle loosely based on the Tavor. It fires in three-round bursts.

IMI Tavor TAR-21 - 5.56x45mm

Machine Guns

"BRM"

The BRM is a futuristic FN Minimi-based design that feeds from a 75-round belt fed through a chute. It has the stock of the Paratrooper variant, and is probably a spiritual successor to Black Ops 2's Mk 48.

Mk 46 Mod 0 light machine gun - 5.56x45mm

"Dingo"

"48 Dredge"

Loosely based on the M249-E2, but fires 6-round bursts automatically in a similar fashion to the Pharo.

M249-E2 SAW (Squad Automatic Weapon) - 5.56x45mm (note heat shield over barrel and bent, finger grooved handle. The FN Minimi lacks these features and has a straight 90 degree handle.)

Gorgon

A slow-firing machine gun that actually looks more like an anti-material rifle given the muzzle brake and barrel.

Sniper Rifles

"Locus"

Modeled on the FN Ballista.

FN Ballista - .338 Lapua Magnum

"Drakon"

This odd-looking sniper rifle appears to be a combination of FG42 and WA2000, along with quite a lot of alcohol.

Walther WA 2000 - .300 Win Mag

In the future, weapons will be more complex than they have any real right to be.

"P-06"

"SVG-100"

The game's high-caliber rifle. Formerly called the 'Power-Bolt' in the beta.

Launchers

"XM-53"

Based on the Carl Gustav M3, with a Heckler & Koch XM25-style barrel.
