Official Artwork

Platforms:	PC
Genre:	First-Person Shooter

Operation Harsh Doorstop is a free-to-play, tactical, first person shooter made as sort of tribute to games similar to the likes of Insurgency, Rising Storm 2: Vietnam, and Project Reality. It is also being advertised as a type of sandbox game for the modding community, everything can be configured to the user's desire in the SDK. The current released build features multiple factions of various time periods, such as the Imperial German Army, North Vietnamese Army, and Middle Eastern Insurgents.

The following weapons appear in the video game Operation: Harsh Doorstop:

Pistols

M1911 Variant

An M1911 appears as a primary weapon for the Squad Leaders for the WWI US Army faction, and as sidearm for the WWII and Vietnam era US forces.

Original Colt M1911 .45 ACP

An American officer wielding his trusty sidearm. Two handed grip is an odd choice for the setting, since standard doctrine at the time was aiming pistols one handed.

A look through the irons...

Inserting a fresh magazine

At least the slide locks back like it should.

Whenever the player character unequips any sidearm, the character will always engage the safety, and also disengage it every time it is re-equipped.

Walther P38

The Walther P38 incorrectly appears under the nomenclature of "Luger P38" and is the sole weapon for the Squad Leader kit of the Imperial German Army faction, a more accurate choice would have been an actual Luger P08, or a Mauser C96. However, it is more accurately depicted as the sidearm for the Wehrmacht.

Mauser production Walther P38 9x19mm

A German officer somehow wielding a P38 during the first world war. Perhaps it's merely a placeholder until a Luger or a Mauser C96 is added in the future?

The officer flips the safety on his anachronistic sidearm.

Beretta M9

Unlike the entry above, the Beretta M9 correctly appears as the sidearm to the Gulf War era US Army faction. Available only to Squad Leader and Marksman kits.
