Driver: Parallel Lines
The following firearms were used in the video game Driver: Parallel Lines:
1978
Smith & Wesson Model 19
The starting weapon in the game, the Smith & Wesson Model 19 appears as the "Revolver" and has unlimited ammunition. Although the icon shows a snubnose version, the revolver in the game itself is a long-barreled target version.
Smith & Wesson Model 29
The Smith & Wesson Model 29 appears as the "44H" and is much stronger then the regular revolver, but has a limited range. It has the unique ability of being able to knock people over as well as killing them in one shot.
Mini Uzi
As the "Service 9", the Mini Uzi is the first automatic weapon encountered in the game. The wire stock is removed on the in-game model.
Remington 1100
Simply called the "Shotgun", the Remington 1100 has a short range, but is very powerful. In the game, it is shown with a wooden furniture, pistol grip and an extended magazine tube. In order to completely confuse the situation, it also has the Remington Model 870's pump forend.
M16A2
The anachronistic M16A2 with 20-round magazine appears as the "LI-15" (although the HUD icon to represent an Armalite AR-10). It is favoured for its range and power.
AKM
In the PC version, "LI-15" is based on the AKM. Howewer, in the game it is inaccurately modeled without a gas tube, sights, and with solid forearm without holes, which suggests that it was actually made based on Saiga-12K.
Smith & Wesson Model 276 Gas Gun
The Smith & Wesson Model 276 Gas Gun appears as "Grenade Launcher", and it is the strongest weapon in the 1978 section of the game, but has a very slow reload time. In the game it is shown with a buttstock and pistol grip in the style of the later DefTech 1315, and with added horizontal forearm. As with many other guns, the HUD icon shows a completely different weapon, in this case a M79 Grenade Launcher. The latter would make more sense, since the Model 276 Gas Gun, as its name implies, in real life was only adapted to launch gas/noise grenades.
2006
Beretta 92FS
The "Pistol", a Beretta 92FS, is the standard weapon in the 2006 section of the game. It also has unlimited ammo.
Desert Eagle MK I
An upgrade of the pistol, the Desert Eagle Mark I is called the "Gangster".
Heckler & Koch MP7
The MP7 appears as the "SF 10" and has a large range.
FN P90
The FN P90 appears as the "F 70" and has a higher rate of fire than the SF 10, but is less powerful. It is very incorrectly modeled in the game (and, as an exception, it corresponds to its HUD icon), without few elements, and it seems to be smaller than its real size.
Mossberg 500 Bullpup
The Mossberg Bullpup appears as the "Shotgun'06" and, like its predecessor, has a short range but is full auto (even though the real thing is pump-action).
Steyr AUG
As the "Aust Pup", the Steyr AUG is almost the same as the SF 10, with the slower rate of fire but good accuracy. Interestingly, despite being portrayed as a "modern" firearm, the AUG was actually introduced in 1978.
Heckler & Koch HK69A1
Incorrectly called the "RPG", the Heckler & Koch HK69A1 functions more like a rocket launcher. The projectiles however advance very slowly, at a speed of less than 140 mph (as it is possible to drive into the back of one at this speed).
Minigun
A hand-held Minigun is called the "Blaine" (a reference to Predator) is the most powerful weapon in the 2006 section of the game, and has a high magazine capacity.
