The following weapons appear in the video game Assassin's Creed Syndicate:
Handguns
While the game is not primarily a shooter, guns play a major role in Syndicate. Although not the first Assassin's Creed game to have guns, it is the first to feature them as a major tool of combat. The player can only carry available handguns, most of which are revolvers. There are also some single-shot, break-barrel, and self-loading guns as well.
Colt 2nd Model Derringer
Henry Greene gives the Frye's theair ownColt 2nd Model Derringer in one of the earliest missions. This is slightly anachronistic with the the Colt 2nd Model Derringer not being produced until 1870, however its precursor the National Arms Co. 2nd model Derringer was being manufactured at the time.
Pocket Pistol
A pocket pistol resembling a Smith & Wesson Model 1 is available to purchase in-game.
Model 1 Revolver
The Smith & Wesson Model 2 appears incorrectly as the "Model 1" in-game
Bullseye Revovler
The Bullseye Revolver is a hybrid gun between a Colt 1851 Navy and a LeMat Revolver
1856 Revolver
The 1856 Revolver was one of the first confirmed weapons in the game, first seen in the Jacob Frye Trailer. It is modeled after a Beumont Adams Revolver.
Single Action Army
The Single Action Army is available in the game. The barrel of the in-game gun appears a bit longer than a standard Single Action army. The game is set in 1868, making the SAA anachronistic.
Lancaster Pistol
The Lancaster Howdah Pistol makes an appearance as the "Lancaster 4 Barrel"
.38 Double Action
The Smith & Wesson 4th Model makes an anachronistic appearance as the ".38 Double Action". Although it incorrectly shoots .38 bullets rather than .32's, it is correctly identified as a double action.
M1877 Lightning
The Colt Lightning is another weapon available to unlock in the game. It comes in two variants, the standard "Lightning" model, and the "Thunderer", which has better speed, damage, and quickfire accuracy.
Model 3 Revolver
The anachronistic Smith & Wesson No.3 Russian Model appears in game as the "Model 3 Revolver" and is unlocked at level 8.
Self-Loading Pistol Model 1868
The Self-Loading pistol is an anachronistic version of the Bergmann Model 1896. One of the better usable guns in the game, it has significantly higher stats than many other pistols.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1866 "Golden Boy"
In a carriage chase from a cinematic trailer, a gangster trades his Colt Lightning for a lever-action rifle, which is most likely a variant of the Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy"
Snider-Enfield Rifle
In one of the game's promotional trailers, we get a quick glimpse of a royal guard with a rifle. Although we don't see exactly what is is, we it is most likely a Snider-Enfield Rifle, since that was the standard issue rifle of the British Armed Forces at the time.
Miscellaneous Guns
Wrist-mounted guns
The new variation of the Assassin Gauntlet has both a dart gun on top and a grapple launcher on the bottom. Syndicate is the first Assassin's Creed game to feature a grapple gun to make traversing rooftops easier and quicker.
Special Weapon Packs
Through the "Join the Family" promotional contests on the Assassin's Creed website, users were able to unlock bonus weapon packs with special guns.
Mars Automatic Pistol
Within the art book available with the collector's edition of the game, two weapons are seen. The Mars Automatic Pistol and Smith & Wesson Model 2. The Mars is ornately decorated and quite anachronistic, since it wasn't produced until 1897. An extremely rare long-recoil operated pistol with a production run of around eighty, the Mars was largely a failure due to firing a special 9mm round with a muzzle velocity more suited to a rifle; it was said that those who fired it never expressed any desire to do so again.
