Arsenal mangement:
+
In single player one is allowed to carry a knife, a handgun, two primary weapons, two types of hand grenades, C4 explosives, a LAW, and a first-aid kit. Unlike ''Vietcong'' the player cannot choose their starting equipment during the campaign; this can only done in the "Single Mission" mode, where the player can play the missions one by one. With a few exceptions, the non-player-characters have randomly selected guns. Also notable some "weapon groups" for this random selection: earlier Vietcong may spawn armed with an [[SKS]], a [[MAT-49]] or a [[PPSh-41]]; NVA soldiers and later Vietcong are armed with an [[SKS]], an [[Sa vz. 58]] or an [[AK-47]]; VC machine gunners may have an [[Sa vz. 58]] or an [[RPD]] for example. The exceptions are the teammates, the snipers, the [[RPG-7]] gunners and the Vietcong armed with the [[Baikal IZh-43]]. However these last two types drop a randomly generated handgun.

<br>During the single player campaigns the player is allowed to transport a knife, a handgun, two primary weapon and a lot various equipment (two type of handgrenades, C4 explosives, LAW and a first-aid kit).Differntli from '''Vietcong''' the player cannot choose his starting equipment during the campaign, this possibility is present only in the "Single Mission" mode, where the gamer can play the missions one by one. With few exception, the non-playing character haven not a "fixed" weapon but a casually selected weapon: it's easily notable that the most part of the enemy may be equipped with different guns each time you play a mission. Also can be noted some "weapon groups" for this variations: earlier Viet Cong may spaw armed with a SKS or a MAT-49 or a PPSh-41, NVA soldier and later Viet Cong are armed with a SKS or a Vzor 58 or an AK-47, VC machine gunners may have a Vzor 59 or a RPD-44 for example.The exceptions are the teammate, the snipers, the RPG gunners and the Viet Cong armed with the IZH-43. However these last two gunman drop a casually generated handgun.

<br>Another notably odd (and ghastly) thing is that the most part of the weapon are chambered with a wrong caliber, but all these error will be described in the weapon details.

The most part of this weapon are obviously of US manufacture, but due the presence of Australian army soldiers in game (the team's medic Cobber is Australian) is possible see (and use) english weapons of Australian ordnance

The [[Makarov PM]] appears in-game as the "Makarov". It incorrectly uses 9x19mm Parabellum.

===Smith & Wesson Model 27===
+
==Nagant M1895==
−
Special forces sidearm, it's really accurate and seems to be reloaded using '''speed loaders'''. Despite in multiplayer it's described correctly as a .357 Magnum, the ammo found for it are named '''.38 Special''' (usable without problem on this gun, but notoriously less powerful) but still have more stopping power than a standard Colt .45. As the M1911A1 it may be dropped by some Viet Cong and in multiplayer is the pistol equipped to U.S. "Infantryman", "Medic" and "Radioman" classes and Viet Cong "Fighter", "Medic" and "Radioman" classes.
+
An integrally-suppressed [[Nagant M1895]] appears in-game as the "Nagant mod.1895 (silencer)". It is incorrectly chambered in .38 Special.

===Smith & Wesson Mark 22 Model 0===
+
==Smith & Wesson Model 27==
−
Appear as "S&W Mod.39(sil.)" and is equipped with a silencer. Oddly it shares the .45ACP ammunition of the M1911A1 instead of the correct 9x19 NATO, same error made in '''Vietcong'''. It is equipped in a few mission in the U.S. campaign and is the standard pistol for the U.S. sniper in multiplayer.
+
The [[Smith & Wesson Model 27]] appears in-game as the "S&W mod.27". It is described as using .357 Magnum in multiplayer, but the ammunition itself is referred to as .38 Special.

===Thompson M1A1===

The suppressed [[Smith & Wesson 39]] from the previous game appears as the "S&W mod.39 (silencer)". Also like the previous game, it is incorrectly chambered in .45 ACP.
−
U.S. submachine gun, generally seen in the hands of the ARVN soldiers, the M1A1 is also the signature weapon of the engeenier Dutch. Accurate and powerfull it features a 30 rounds magazine, despite the 3D models which resemble a 20 round magazine. In multiplayer it is quiet commonly seen in the hands of an expert player.

===Carl Gustaf M/45===
+
==Stechkin APS==
−
Swedish submachine gun used by special forces. The player starts equipped with it during the first mission. It features a 36 round magazine and high rate of fire (despite the real one having a somewhat slow rate of fire). It is commonly used by the ARVN soldiers during the first two mission of the Viet Cong single player campaign.
+
The [[Stechkin APS]] appears in-game, referred to with its real name and is incorrectly chambered for .45 ACP.

===Sterling L2A3===
+
=Submachine Guns=
−
British submachine gun, used only by Cobber in several missions. In the game it is called "Sterling L34A1", but that is wrong, because the L34A1 model features an integral sound suppressor. Uses 34 round magazine and like the M/45, it features a fire rate higher than its real counterpart. Shares ammo with the M/45 and is the replacement for the STEN MKII.

==Carl Gustav M/45==

===Sten Mark IIS===
+
==MAC-10==
−
Another British submachine gun, fitted with silencer. The Sten isn't used by any character, nor is it even a starting equipment in any mission, but one may be found in the second mission while entering in the building occupied by Viet Cong in front of the bridge. Shares the same 9x19mm ammunition of the M/45 and of the Sterling.
+
The [[MAC-10]] appears in-game as the "Ingram MAC-10" and is incorrectly chambered for .32 ACP.

−
===Ingram MAC-10===
+
==MAT-49==
−
U.S. machine pistol. Theorically it was used by the U.S. Special Forces, but in game it isn't used by any character and cannot be find during any missions. It may be used in multiplayer or selected as primary weapon in the "Single Mission" mode. Oddly its ammunition in the game is the 7.65mm Browning, the same of the Vz.61 (probably for more direct comparison between the two guns), moreover both the M10 and Vz.61 have the same firing sound.
+
The [[MAT-49]] appears in-game under its real name. It is chambered in 9x18 Makarov in-game instead of the more common Vietnamese conversion of the MAT-49 to 7.62 Tokarev.

+
The [[PPSh-41]] appears under its real name.
−
Assault carbine used by U.S. Special forces, equipped in five missions during the single player campaign and issued to the ARVN's Hac Bao riflemen during the last mission. While using the iron sight it is notable that the rear sight in the carring handle is missing. Shares the magazine with the M16.

==Sa vz. 61 Skorpion==
−
Main U.S. assault rifle, appears as "M16". Used by the U.S. Marines, ARVN Soldiers, and Australian Soldiers throughout the game. Uses 20 round magazines loaded with 18 rounds, probably to avoid jamming(the guns never jam in Vietcong 2). There is a second version fitted with an experimental Colt XM148 grenade launcher.
+
The [[Sa vz. 61 Skorpion]] appears as the "Vz.61 Scorpion".

+
==Sten Mk IIS==
−
Australian battle rifle. Despite the real rifle being capable of semiautomatic fire only, in the game it can switch fire mode between automatic and semiautomatic, just as the M14. Cobber (the medic) uses it in the last mission but the player never uses it, while in multiplayer it is available only for the U.S. "Infanterist" class. Shares ammunition reserve with M14 and the XM21.

The [[Sten Mk IIS]] appears in-game as the "Sten Mk. II".

U.S. battle rifle, used in game by the U.S. Marines aside the M16. Despite the strong recoil, it isn't much more powerfull than the M16 and the XM177.

==Machine guns==
+
==Thompson M1A1==
−
The machine gun are normally unusable during the multiplayer game, because due their high fire-power the server administrators normally lock the "Machinegunner" class of both team.
+
The [[Thompson M1A1]] appears as the "M-1 A1 Thompson".
−
===Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2===
+
[[Image:M1sb.jpg|thumb|none|450px|M1A1 Thompson - .45 ACP]]
−
Old U.S. squad automatic weapon, alternative weapon to the M60 for the U.S. machinegunner. Quite easy to find along both campaign, it work like a "empowered" M14, with hight fire rate and more reserve magazines (the BAR allow to carry 15 magazines against the 6 of the M14/L1A1). Unrealistically it fire the same 7.62x51 ammunition of the M60 and appear that it do not have a proper type of magazine (when killed, a BAR gunner drop the same ammunition pouches of the M60)

Main U.S. general purpose machine gun also nicknamed "the Pig" or "the Hog". It is obviously the signature weapon of Stone, the U.S. machinegunner and moreover the Vietnamese machine gunner Tran use it during the first mission of the Viet Cong campaign (the night assault on a ARVN compound). The model seen in game feature the rear sight raised and the bipod removed. It may be used by the player as individual weapon (using 100 round pouches, for a maximal number of 400 round) or mounted on fortified positions and patrol Jeeps, with unlimited ammunition and Used By Australian soldier Cobbler.

Classic heavy machine gun. Common along both campaign, mostly seen mounted over U.S. vehicle such as M-113 APC, armed REO M35 trucks and UH-1 transport helicopters. In multiplayer is usable by U.S. machine gunners in similar manner to the M1919A4: compared to its .30 caliber sister the M2 have a slower fire rate but a major stopping power.

The ammunition are claimed to be "9x18 Makarov", despite the 3D model of the clip shown clearly that the bullet are too long to be cartridge calibre 9 Makarov. An other strangeness: in multiplayer this pistol is equipped only to the Viet Cong class "NVA soldier" (teorically a regular soldier of the North Vietnam Army/Vietnam People's Army), where instead a Makarov will be more probable.

Vietcong 2
Vietcong 2.jpg
Offical Boxart
Release Date: 2005
Developer: Pterodon Illusion Softworks
Publisher: 2k Games
Series: Vietcong
Platforms: PC
Genre: First-Person Shooter


Vietcong 2 is the sequel to the tactical first person shooter Vietcong. As in the first game, the player will take on the role of US Army Special Forces team leader, Captain Daniel Boone, during the Vietnam War. Unlike its predecessor, it is also possible to play as the Viet Cong in a short secondary campaign. Players take on the role of Minh, a young Vietnamese man from a village in South Vietnam. Both the US and Viet Cong campaigns take place in and around the city of Hue during the Tet Offensive of January 1968.

In single player one is allowed to carry a knife, a handgun, two primary weapons, two types of hand grenades, C4 explosives, a LAW, and a first-aid kit. Unlike Vietcong the player cannot choose their starting equipment during the campaign; this can only done in the "Single Mission" mode, where the player can play the missions one by one. With a few exceptions, the non-player-characters have randomly selected guns. Also notable some "weapon groups" for this random selection: earlier Vietcong may spawn armed with an SKS, a MAT-49 or a PPSh-41; NVA soldiers and later Vietcong are armed with an SKS, an Sa vz. 58 or an AK-47; VC machine gunners may have an Sa vz. 58 or an RPD for example. The exceptions are the teammates, the snipers, the RPG-7 gunners and the Vietcong armed with the Baikal IZh-43. However these last two types drop a randomly generated handgun.

Another odd thing is that most of the pistol-caliber weapons are chambered for the wrong caliber; the specifics of these errors are described below.

The following weapons appear in the video game Vietcong 2:
