The [[Heckler & Koch G3#Heckler & Koch MSG90|Heckler & Koch MSG90A1]] serves as a long range weapon like the Mini-14 from the first game. It is modeled after the H&K MSG90A1 sniper rifle, with some features from the H&K G3/SG1. It has the MSG90A1's stock, trigger group, and barrel, but it also has the G3/SG1's fore-grip and bi-pod, rear sight (which is the same as rest of the G3 series) and scope mount. Its magazine holds 30 rounds (even though it's modeled with a 20 round magazine), which is double that of the previous hunting rifle.

The following weapons appear in the video game Left 4 Dead 2:

Left 4 Dead 2 (2009)

Pistols

SIG-Sauer P226

A custom SIG-Sauer P226 is now one of standard handguns for the Survivors. Although it says "Triton P220" on the slide, it actually modeled after a P226 with a shorter than standard slide and barrel. The gun also features a custom reverse two-tone finish, custom sights, and an underbarrel tactical flashlight/laser sight unit (the later of which is, unfortunately, unusable).

Hybrid Glock

A Glock pistol is seen used as the second handgun for dual wielding, The Glock is actually not a 17 directly, being instead a hybrid of several Glocks. The shape of the forend of the slide is the shape of some of the subcompact models like the 26, the dimensions of the Glock itself have the slide length of a standard frame like a Glock 17 but the grip seems stunted and off a slightly smaller compact model like the 15-round Glock 19. It does not have a mounted flashlight on it.

IMI Desert Eagle

The Desert Eagle has more recoil and a slower rate of fire than the standard sidearms, but has much more stopping power and greater accuracy. The pistol holds 8 rounds like the .44 Magnum version, even though it is modeled after the .50 caliber version. This weapon usually kills common infected with a single shot. When found in Whitaker's Gun Shop, a sign names the pistol "Desert Cobra," and the game claims that only 2000 were ever made and prices them at 2000 dollars apiece.

Interestingly, its flashlight is attached via a rifle scope ring mount and an aftermarket underbarrel rail. integrated

Shotguns

Remington 870 Police Magnum Riot

A similar shotgun like the "Renegade Rangemaster" from the first game appears in this game, but has a new model. It now resembles the Remington 870 Police Magnum Riot Shotgun, but it still has a Ithaca 37-like magazine tube.

Remington 870 Marine Magnum

Remington 870 Marine Magnum is seen with a Mariner NP3 finish. It has a ventilated rib and ghost ring sights. It has a tighter spread than the default shotgun, but deals slightly less damage. It has the tightest spread of all of the shotguns, which makes it more effective at distance shots compared to the other shotguns.

Benelli M4 Super 90

The shotgun from the first game which is another Second Tier weapon, the Benelli M4 in game has a 10-round magazine (while the real one has an 7 round magazine) and a flashlight clipped to the barrel right in front of the handguard.

Franchi SPAS-12

The Franchi SPAS-12 is the second auto-shotgun available to the players, It carries 10 rounds while the real one has a max capacity of 8 and unlike other Valve games, it's fired in its semi auto mode. It has the tightest spread and does more damage per pellet than its counterpart, but to compensate, it shoots less pellets per shell.

SMGs

Ingram MAC-10

Fitted with the legendary Mitchell Werbell suppressor, which has a flashlight attached to it with zip ties, and is chambered in .45 ACP, evidenced by the fact that it does more damage and has more recoil than the Uzi. The MAC-10 has a 50 round magazine with a extra 650 rounds in reserve, despite the fact the one used in the game is modeled after a 30-round magazine.

IMI Uzi

The Uzi from the first game. It is the same full-sized First Tier Uzi using a 50 round magazine (modeled after the 32 round one) with a flashlight taped to its handguard.

Rifles

Ruger Mini-14

The Ruger Mini-14 hunting rifle has been carried over from the previous game.

Hip accuracy has been significantly increased compared to the L4D1 version, in fact it is the most accurate weapon on the move in L4D2. With a laser sight it is even more accurate on the move than any SMG. It is also slightly more accurate than the Sniper Rifle. It has a capacity of 15 rounds even though it is modeled with a 10 round magazine.

Colt M16A2

The M-16 from the first game appears in Left 4 Dead 2. It says "M16 A2" on the lower receiver but It fires in full auto like the M16A1 and M16A3. It appears to have the highest rate of fire out of all the assault rifles and it still has a unrealistic magazine capacity of 50 rounds.

AKM

The AKM has a 40 round magazine which is 10 less than the M16 and 20 less than the SCAR-L. It also has the lowest rate of fire of the assault rifles, but also does very good damage to the Infected.

Its identified as an AKM by its muzzle compensator, stamped steel receiver, night sight mounting bracket on the left side and plastic 7.62x39mm, 30 round magazines. However, it has a 40 round capacity which is possible in real life by using RPK magazines, although it makes the weapon rather bulky.

FN SCAR-L

The FN SCAR-L is called the "Combat Rifle" in-game and holds an unrealistic 60 rounds of ammunition despite the fact that it's modeled with a 30 round STANAG magazine (same as the M16's), and fires in a three-shot burst (which real SCAR-Ls do not have). Although if you keep the trigger depressed, it will fire successive three-shot bursts without the need to pull the trigger again. It also has very high accuracy and appears to do more damage than the M16. In addition, The SCAR-L in the game seems to be modeled after the FN SCAR 16S, a civilian version of the SCAR-L with a 16" barrel and a M16A2 flash-hider, but oddly, it has "Mk.17" markings on the side of the weapon (denoting the SCAR-H).

HK MSG90A1

The Heckler & Koch MSG90A1 serves as a long range weapon like the Mini-14 from the first game. It is modeled after the H&K MSG90A1 sniper rifle, with some features from the H&K G3/SG1. It has the MSG90A1's stock, trigger group, and barrel, but it also has the G3/SG1's fore-grip and bi-pod, rear sight (which is the same as rest of the G3 series) and scope mount. Its magazine holds 30 rounds (even though it's modeled with a 20 round magazine), which is double that of the previous hunting rifle.

Machine Guns

Browning M2

The Browning M2 heavy machine gun replaces the GE M134 Minigun from the first game.

GE M134 Minigun

The GE M134 Minigun from the first game returns in The Sacrifice DLC, used in campaigns where the players control the original Survivors. The time needed to spool up the barrels and start firing seems to be slightly decreased.

M60 machine gun

The M60 machine gun is only available in The Passing and No Mercy DLC (it may be in the Sacrifice). It carries only 150 rounds and, after being depleted, is dropped (That's right, no reloading). The Survivor will then revert back to their secondary weapon, much like with the Grenade Launcher. There is an Achievement called "Till it Goes Click" (The Big Lebowski reference), which requires the player to mow down 25 infected without letting go of the trigger.

Other

M79 grenade launcher

The M79 grenade launcher acts as a single-shot, area-effect weapon, it must be reloaded after every shot and the wielder must pay particular attention not to hurt themselves or their teammates with the explosion.

It comes with 30 grenades plus one already in the weapon, it can kill a Tank in only 2-5 hits (on Normal difficulty), and has almost no arc, unlike most games including HL2. It can also use incendiary and fragmentation rounds if incendiary or fragmentation ammo boxes are used, and for some bizarre reason, you can also put a laser sight on it.

Pipe Bomb

As in the first game the pipe bomb has a smoke alarm attached to it that beeps loudly and brings zombies running.

Molotov Cocktail

The Molotov Coctails from the first game are available to the player.

German/International Version

Because of the strict censorship in Germany (and also in Australia and elsewhere in the world), Valve decided to add 4 Counter-Strike: Source weapons. Players are able to use them even in non-German versions of the game if they play with someone with the German version. Players can also use these weapons via cheat in the console but they will deal no damage unless the map is restarted or they are carried through to the next map via safe room.

Heckler & Koch MP5N

The MP5N has a lower rate of fire than the normal SMGs in the game, but it has a slightly higher accuracy than Uzi while its damage is the same as the MAC-10.

H&K MP5N - 9x19mm

Steyr Scout

The Steyr Scout has lower rate of fire than other sniper rifles in game, but good accuracy.

Steyr Scout - 7.62x51mm NATO.

Accuracy International AWSM

The Accuracy International AWSM has the slowest rate of fire (excluding the Grenade Launcher) in the game but inflicts a high amount of damage per shot.

Accuracy International AWSM - .338 Lapua Magnum

SIG SG 552

The SIG SG 552 has a 2x scope and two rates of fire, determined by whether the scope is in use. Without looking down the scope, it has the highest automatic rate of fire out of all assault rifles.

SIG SG 552 - 5.56x45mm.
