Military Conflict: Vietnam is a Vietnam War-oriented, fast-paced action video game.


The following weapons appear in the video game Military Conflict: Vietnam:


Pistols

With the exception of pistols for snipers (which are integrally suppressed), all pistols are ideal for close quarters or as a last resort.

American Pistols

Colt M1911A1

The M1911A1 is available to all American classes except the sniper.

Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic, M1911A1 - .45 ACP

FN Baby Browning

The diminutive FN Baby Browning is available to American assault, gunner, engineer, and radioman classes. Its usage in-game stems from MACV-SOG teams being issued with pistols as a last resort gun.

FN Baby Browning (1965 production) - 6.35x16mmSR (.25 ACP)

Smith & Wesson 39-2

The Smith & Wesson 39-2 is available to all American classes except the sniper.

Smith & Wesson 39-2 - 9x19mm Parabellum

Mk 22 Mod 0 "Hush Puppy"

The Hush Puppy is available to the American sniper. While issued to Navy units (such as the Naval Special Warfare Unit and SEAL teams), it wouldn't prevent regular soldiers from obtaining Hush Puppies. Other than being fitted with a sound suppressor and high-profile iron sights, the differences (including the magazine capacity) remains unchanged.

Mk 22 Mod 0 "Hush Puppy" - 9x19mm Parabellum

High Standard HDM

The HDM is available to the American sniper. While having two additional rounds, its stopping power is slightly limited due to a smaller cartridge.

High Standard HDM - .22 LR

Vietcong Pistols

Makarov PM

The Makarov is available to all Vietcong classes.

Makarov PM - 9x18mm Makarov

The PB is available to the Vietcong marksman. Though accurate for the time period, the PB did not see use in Vietnam, though it didn't stop the Soviet Union from sending pistols as aid (and a counterpart to the American Hush Puppy).

Makarov PB

Makarov PB - 9x18mm Makarov

MAS M1935S

The MAS M1935S is available to all Vietcong classes. Left over from the French occupation of Indochina, quantities would enter Vietcong usage.

MAS Modèle 1935S - 7.65x20mm Long

Mauser C96

The Mauser C96 is available to all Vietcong classes except the marksman. A veteran of two world wars, its appearance can be justified by Soviet aid lent to the North.

Mauser C96 - 7.63x25mm Mauser

Shanxi Type 17

A relic of the Warlord era, the Shanxi Type 17 is available to the Medic class, distinguished from its German counterpart by its detachable stock, higher damage, and less mobility.

Shanxi Type 17 (1928) with detachable wooden stock - .45 ACP

Nambu Type 14

The Nambu Type 14 is available to all Vietcong classes. The presence of the Nambu in-game is accurate; pistols left over from the departing Japanese two decades prior were put to use with the Vietcong.

Nambu Type 14 - 8x22mm Nambu

Tokarev TT-33

The TT-33 is available to all Vietcong classes. Details on the slide denotes a pre-1947 variant, indicating that this specimen was used in World War II.

Tokarev TT-33, pre-1947 production - 7.62x25mm Tokarev

Norinco Type 67

The Type 67 silenced pistol is available to the Vietcong sniper. Like with the PB, it is unknown whether it was used in the Vietnam War, but the earlier type 64 was allegedly said to be taken by Mitchell Werbell III (the creator of the MAC-10's two stage suppressor) from the Vietcong.

Type 67 Silenced Pistol - 7.65x17mm Type 64

Walther P38

The Walther P38 is available to all Vietcong classes. Ex-Nazi production P38s (not to be confused with West German P1s) were sent to Vietnam as military aid by the Warsaw Pact countries (in particular the Soviet Union, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia). Alternately, they could be pistols left over from the French. A small inaccuracy is that empty shells eject from the right versus the left as in reality.

Walther P38, wartime production with brown grips - 9x19mm Parabellum

Revolvers

Revolvers in-game have three "selector" modes that affects the gun's performance: double-action (the player has to hold down the mouse button to fire but can be manually cancelled), single-action (the player can fire after cocking the hammer), and fan-firing (the player cannot aim but the revolver can fire faster).

Nagant M1895

The Nagant M1895 is available to the Vietcong marksman.

Nagant M1895 - 7.62x38mmR

Smith & Wesson Model 10-7

The S&W Model 10-7 is available to the American sniper.

Smith & Wesson Model 10 - .38 Special

Smith & Wesson Model 12

The S&W Model 12 is available to the American sniper. In reality it was only issued to the US Air Force.

Smith & Wesson Model 12 - .38 Special

Machine Pistols

With a fast fire rate but also poor accuracy, machine pistols are most effective in close quarters.

Ingram MAC-10

The MAC-10 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Like with its Vietnamese counterpart, a silenced counterpart is available. It saw limited use in the last years of the conflict, being issued to special forces

Ingram MAC-10 - 9x19mm Parabellum
MAC-10 submachine gun with Sionics Two-Stage Sound Suppressor - .45 ACP

Škorpion

The Škorpion is available to the Vietcong medic, engineer, and radioman classes. A variant with its stock extended and a suppressor is available, slightly reducing its damage, range, and mobility due to the suppressor's bulk.

samopal vz.1961 Škorpion - 7.65x17mmSR (.32 ACP)

Stechkin APS

The Stechkin APS outfitted with its wooden stock is available to the Vietcong medic, engineer, and radioman classes.

Stechkin APS with wooden stock - 9x18mm Makarov

Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun" - 12 gauge.


Vietcong shotguns

Manufrance Fusil Robust

The Manufrance Fusil Robust is available to the Vietcong enginer and radioman classes.

Manufrance Fusil Robust - 12 gauge.

Submachine Guns

Available primarily to support classes (as well as the assault class which uses drum-fed variants), submachine guns are ideal for use in close quarters.

American Submachine Guns

Beretta Model 12

The Beretta M12 is available to American medics, engineers, and radiomen. Albeit available in limited numbers, U.S marines guarding the American Embassy in Saigon would repeal a Vietcong attack on the Embassy using the M12 during the Tet Offensive in 1968.

Kulsprutepistol m/1945B

The Carl Gustav M/45 submachine gun is available to American medics, engineers, and radiomen, with a SOG variant featuring a sound suppressor. Issued primarily to Navy SEALs in the conflict as well as the CIA, the Swedish-K's performance impressed their buyers to the point where Sweden issued an embargo for its use in 1966; the U.S as a result would turn to Smith & Wesson to procure a copy.

Kulsprutepistol m/45B - 9x19mm Parabellum

M1928 Thompson

The M1928 Thompson with its bulky 50-round drum magazine is available to the American assault class. The M1928 was retired from service after WWII, though it was supplied to South Vietnam.

M1928 Thompson - .45 ACP
Aiming down the sights.
Firing the Thompson.
Inserting a new magazine on the empty reload; the animation shows the drum magazine being removed and then inserted again through the vertical channels, which is incorrect for M1928 drum magazines (these slide out through the horizontal channels, which are present on the model). The bolt also locks forward on empty (correct for drum magazines) though it has to be pulled back first in order to reload; in-game it is shown as happening after changing magazines.

M1A1 Thompson

The lighter M1A1 Thompson is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. A SOG variant without its stock is available, increasing mobility but reducing accuracy. While rather obsolete, the M1A1 Thompson was used in small numbers by special forces and the US Navy.

M1A1 Thompson - .45 ACP

The players character pulls the bolt back after reloading. It appears the weapon's bolt hold open has been omitted; or perhaps it is malfunctioning due to worn magazines.
M1A1 Thompson with stock removed- .45 ACP

M3A1 Grease Gun

The M3A1 Grease Gun is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Like with the M1A1 Thompson, a SOG variant featuring a sound suppressor is available.

M3A1 Grease Gun - .45 ACP
M3A1 "Grease Gun" with an attached suppressor - .45 ACP

Madsen M50

The Madsen M50 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Visually similar to the Carl Gustav, differences include slightly increased stats. The Madsen was mainly used by South Vietnamese forces, but some were issused to Green Berrets in MIKE Force.

Madsen M50 - 9x19mm Parabellum

Sten Mk II

The Sten is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes, with a suppressed variant available. While an oddity for use with American forces, special forces (in particularly Army Rangers) would use Stens in a capacity.

Sten Mk II - 9x19mm Parabellum

Smith & Wesson Model 76

The Smith & Wesson Model 76 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Differences from the original Carl Gustav m/45 includes a faster fire rate, lower range and damage.

M3A1 Grease Gun - 9x19mm Parabellum

IMI Uzi

The IMI Uzi is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes, with a suppressed SOG variant featuring reduced mobility, damage, and range. The Uzi was issued to SOG sky diving teams due to its compact design.

IMI Uzi - 9x19mm Parabellum

Vietcong Submachine Guns

MAS-38

The MAS-38 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes.

MAS-38 - 7.65x20mm Long

MAT-49

The MAT-49 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. As it has 35 rounds in-game, it can be discerned as a Vietnamese conversion to 7.62mm Tokarev from the original 9mm Parabellum variant.

A MAT-49 SMG captured by Communist Forces during the French-Indochina War and converted to 7.62x25mm Tokarev.

MP 40

The MP 40 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Captured from French forces (who themselves acquired them from the surrendering Germans), or gifts from the Soviet Union, North Vietnam would distribute submachine guns to the Vietcong through supply lines such as the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

Maschinenpistole 40 - 9x19mm Parabellum

PPSh-41

The PPSh-41 is available to all classes with the exception of the sniper; while the assault class uses the 71-round drum variant, the rest uses the smaller 35-round box magazine.

PPSh-41 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev. Drum magazine.
PPSh-41 - 7.62x25mm Tokarev. Box magazine.

K-50M

The K-50M, a Vietnamese variant of the PPSh-41, is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Differences from the PPSh-41 includes a wire stock and a pistol grip as well as a shorter barrel and front sights modelled after that of the AK-47.

K-50M - 7.62x25mm Tokarev

PPS-43

The PPS-43 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes as the Vietcong counterpart to the Grease Gun, though without a sound suppressor.
