Military Conflict: Vietnam is a Vietnam War-oriented, fast-paced action video game.
The following weapons appear in the video game Military Conflict: Vietnam:
Pistols
With the exception of pistols for snipers (which are integrally suppressed), all pistols are ideal for close quarters or as a last resort.
American Pistols
Colt M1911A1
The M1911A1 is available to all American classes except the sniper.
FN Baby Browning
The diminutive FN Baby Browning is available to American assault, gunner, engineer, and radioman classes. Its usage in-game stems from MACV-SOG teams being issued with pistols as a last resort gun.

Smith & Wesson 39-2
The Smith & Wesson 39-2 is available to all American classes except the sniper.
Mk 22 Mod 0 "Hush Puppy"
The Hush Puppy is available to the American sniper. While issued to Navy units (such as the Naval Special Warfare Unit and SEAL teams), it wouldn't prevent regular soldiers from obtaining Hush Puppies. Other than being fitted with a sound suppressor and high-profile iron sights, the differences (including the magazine capacity) remains unchanged.
High Standard HDM
The HDM is available to the American sniper. While having two additional rounds, its stopping power is slightly limited due to a smaller cartridge.
Vietcong Pistols
Makarov PM
The Makarov is available to all Vietcong classes.
The PB is available to the Vietcong marksman. Though accurate for the time period, the PB did not see use in Vietnam, though it didn't stop the Soviet Union from sending pistols as aid (and a counterpart to the American Hush Puppy).
Makarov PB
MAS M1935S
The MAS M1935S is available to all Vietcong classes. Left over from the French occupation of Indochina, quantities would enter Vietcong usage.
Mauser C96
The Mauser C96 is available to all Vietcong classes except the marksman. A veteran of two world wars, its appearance can be justified by Soviet aid lent to the North.
Nambu Type 14
The Nambu Type 14 is available to all Vietcong classes. The presence of the Nambu in-game is accurate; pistols left over from the departing Japanese two decades prior were put to use with the Vietcong.
Tokarev TT-33
The TT-33 is available to all Vietcong classes. Details on the slide denotes a pre-1947 variant, indicating that this specimen was used in World War II.
Norinco Type 67
The Type 67 silenced pistol is available to the Vietcong sniper. Like with the PB, it is unknown whether it was used in the Vietnam War, but Chinese aid justifies its usage in-game.
Walther P38
The Walther P38 is available to all Vietcong classes. Ex-Nazi production P38s (not to be confused with West German P1s) were sent to Vietnam as military aid by the Warsaw Pact countries (in particular the Soviet Union, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia). Alternately, they could be pistols left over from the French. A small inaccuracy is that empty shells eject from the right versus the left as in reality.
Revolvers
Revolvers in-game have three "selector" modes that affects the gun's performance: double-action (the player has to hold down the mouse button to fire but can be manually cancelled), single-action (the player can fire after cocking the hammer), and fan-firing (the player cannot aim but the revolver can fire faster).
Nagant M1895
The Nagant M1895 is available to the Vietcong marksman.
Smith & Wesson Model 10-7
The S&W Model 10-7 is available to the American sniper.
Smith & Wesson Model 12
The S&W Model 12 is available to the American sniper.
Machine Pistols
With a fast fire rate but also poor accuracy, machine pistols are most effective in close quarters.
Ingram MAC-10
The MAC-10 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Like with its Vietnamese counterpart, a silenced counterpart is available.
Škorpion
The Škorpion is available to the Vietcong medic, engineer, and radioman classes. A variant with its stock extended and a suppressor is available, slightly reducing its damage, range, and mobility due to the suppressor's bulk.
Stechkin APS
The Stechkin APS outfitted with its wooden stock is available to the Vietcong medic, engineer, and radioman classes.
Submachine Guns
Available primarily to support classes (as well as the assault class which uses drum-fed variants), submachine guns are ideal for use in close quarters.
American Submachine Guns
Beretta Model 12
The Beretta M12 is available to American medics, engineers, and radiomen. Albeit available in limited numbers, U.S marines guarding the American Embassy in Saigon would repeal a Vietcong attack on the Embassy during the Tet Offensive in 1968.
Kulsprutepistol m/1945B
The Carl Gustav M/45 submachine gun is available to American medics, engineers, and radiomen, with a SOG variant featuring a sound suppressor. Issued primarily to Navy SEALs in the conflict as well as the CIA, the Swedish-K's performance impressed their buyers to the point where Sweden issued an embargo for its use in 1966; the U.S as a result would turn to Smith & Wesson to procure a copy.
M1928 Thompson
The M1928 Thompson with its bulky 50-round drum magazine is available to the American assault class.
M1A1 Thompson
The lighter M1A1 Thompson is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. A SOG variant without its stock is available, increasing mobility but reducing accuracy.
M3A1 Grease Gun
The M3A1 Grease Gun is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Like with the M1A1 Thompson, a SOG variant featuring a sound suppressor is available.
Madsen M50
The Madsen M50 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Visually similar to the Carl Gustav, differences include slightly increased stats.
Sten Mk II
The Sten is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes, with a suppressed variant available. While an oddity for use with American forces, special forces (in particularly Army Rangers) would use Stens in a capacity.
Smith & Wesson Model 76
The Smith & Wesson Model 76 is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Differences from the original Carl Gustav m/45 includes a faster fire rate, lower range and damage.
Uzi
The Uzi is available to the American medic, engineer, and radioman classes, with a SOG variant featuring reduced mobility, damage, and range.
Vietcong Submachine Guns
MAS-38
The MAS-38 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes.
MAT-49
The MAT-49 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. As it has 35 rounds in-game, it can be discerned as a Vietnamese conversion to 7.62mm Tokarev from the original 9mm Parabellum variant.
MP 40
The MP 40 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Captured from French forces (who themselves acquired them from the surrendering Germans), North Vietnam would distribute submachine guns to the Vietcong through supply lines such as the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
PPSh-41
The PPSh-41 is available to all classes with the exception of the sniper; while the assault class uses the 71-round drum variant, the rest uses the smaller 35-round box magazine.
K-50M
The K-50M, a Vietnamese variant of the PPSh-41, is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Differences from the PPSh-41 includes a wire stock and a pistol grip as well as a shorter barrel and front sights modelled after that of the AK-47.
PPS-43
The PPS-43 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes as the Vietcong counterpart to the Grease Gun, though without a sound suppressor.
Type 64 Submachine Gun
The Type 64 is available to the medic, engineer, and radioman classes. Mechanically similar to the PPS-43, it would serve as its suppressed counterpart for the Grease Gun as the PPS-43 is known to not have a suppressed variant in reality.
Assault Rifles
The cream and butter of soldiers and guerilla fighters alike, assault rifles are dominant in medium-range combat.
American Assault Rifles
Colt M16A1
The M16A1 with its 20-round magazine is available to the American assault class. A variant featuring the M203 grenade launcher is available with less mobility.
Colt Armalite Model 601
The immediate predecessor to the M16 series, the Model 601 is available to the American assault class. Differences from the M16A1 includes the lack of a forward assist and a three-prong flash hider, but they are otherwise similar in in-game performance.
Harrington & Richardson T223
A license-produced, West German-made HK33, the T223 is available to the American assault class. Issued primarily to Navy SEALs where it was popular, its non-standard magazine, cost, and bias against non-American designs prevented the T223 from seeing widespread use.
Stoner 63A
The full-length Stoner 63A in its assault rifle configuration is available to the American assault class. [[file:Stoner 63 Assault Rifle.jpg|350px|none|Stoner 63A (assault rifle) - 5.56x45mm
Vietcong Assault Rifles
Note: As Vietnam was supplied by the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact with large amounts of Kalashnikov-pattern assault rifles, they will be consolidated onto a single section.
AK-47
The venerable AK-47 in its Type 3 configuration is available to the Vietcong assault class.
AKM
A direct upgrade over the AK-47 featuring a slanted compensator, a stamped receiver, and a improved gas tube, the AKM is available to the Vietcong assault class.
AMD-65
The AMD-65 is a Hungarian copy of the AKM with a side-folding wire stock. Labelled as a carbine in-game, it is available for the Vietcong assault and radioman classes with a higher fire rate and damage than the AKM, but lower accuracy.
Karabinek-granatnik wz.1960
The kbkg wz.1960 is available to the Vietcong assault class. Its damage compared to the AK-47 is slightly reduced, but it obtains the ability to launch rifle grenades, albeit without its adaptor, buttpad, or the wielder turning a gas valve when firing rifle grenades.
Norinco Type 56-1
The Chinese-made Type 56-1 with its under-folding stock is available to the Vietcong assault class. Mechanically similar to the AK-47, it deviates in slightly greater mobility, but less accuracy.
Pistol Mitralieră model 1963
A Romanian copy of the AKM, the PM md. 63 differs from it with only the distinctive handguard foregrip and the lack of a compensator.
Samopal vz. 1958 P
The visually similar but unrelated vz.58 is available to the Vietcong assault class. While dealing lower damage than the rest of the Kalashnikov-pattern rifles in its class, its rate of fire is among the highest.
Battle Rifles
Harder-hitting than assault rifles with a greater range, battle rifles suffer in close quarters in addition to a reduced magazine capacity.
