Bioshock 2 (2010)

The following weapons make an appearance in the video game BioShock 2:

Webley Mk VI

The Webley Mk VI is the weapon commonly used by the Leadhead Splicers in the early levels. Is not usable by the player except in multiplayer.

Webley Mk. VI - .455 Webley, but oddly, the one in-game is chambered in .38 S&W

"Pistol" as it appeared in Bioshock. Both games use the same model.

Thompson M1921

The Thompson M1921 is used by many of the the Leadhead Splicers after the first few levels. Has the stock removed and is not usable by the player. However, it is selectable in multiplayer. The Thompsons incorrectly use .50 caliber rounds in this game.

Single Action Army

Two Single Action Army revolvers can be seen on the "El Ammo Bandito!" vending machine, which is used to purchase ammunition for the weapons the player can use.

Luger P08

The Artillery model Luger P08 is given to Subject Delta to shoot himself by Sofia Lamb when he is hit with a Hypnotize plasmid by one of Lamb's Splicers in the game's opening cutscene.

Double Barrelled Shotgun

The fifth weapon found in-game. The stock appears to have been torn off, as splinters are visible on the grip. Can be upgraded with duel cylinders for each barrel which hold 3 shells each, and sawed-off barrels, which unrealisticly increases the damage of each shot instead of decreasing it as in real life.

What is this?
This is meleeing a Splicer with the shotgun. The shotgun deals less melee damage than the other firearms.

The shotgun upgraded with duel cylinders, which increases the capacity to six shells.

A box of 00 Buck shells, which is the default ammo type for the shotgun.

Browning M1919

Like in the first game, mounted Browning M1919 machine guns appear frequently in single-player as automated weapons programmed to shoot all hostiles on sight. The Browning also appears in multiplayer, where it remains neutral until one team hacks it.

Grenade Launcher

Weapon used by Delta. It is the last weapon found in-game and is capable of firing frag grenades, heat-seeking RPG's and proximity mines. The launcher used in multiplayer is significantly different than the Single-player version, as it appears to be constructed out of house-hold items much like the launcher from the first game.

Machine Gun

Weapon found in the second chapter of the game. It is a 4 barreled Gatling Gun that uses .50 caliber BMG rounds. A broken piece of what appears to be a cylinder atop the weapon indicates that it was originally meant to be turret-mounted, but was broken off and converted into a portable weapon. Additionally, while stronger (and with more recoil) than the .45 caliber Tommy Gun aka "Machine Gun" from the first Bioshock, it is still very weak for a .50 caliber weapon as it takes many rounds to kill even a low level Splicer. Another oddity is that you can procure .50 caliber ammunition from the .45 caliber "Tommy Guns" in the game, though this is obviously done for gameplay purposes.

Spear Gun

Weapon found later on in the game. Functions as a sniper weapon in the single-player game.

Spencer 1882

A vintage Spencer 1882 with ornate golden engravings is used by many of the Leadhead splicers after the first few levels. Is not usable by the player. It is, however, usable in the multiplayer component.

Regular "Shotgun"

Elephant Gun

Large, double-barreled rifle available only in multiplayer. It is extremely powerful and accurate, but can only hold two shells at a time (four with modification). A scope may be added to convert the elephant gun into a sniper rifle.
