Project Reality: Vietnam (2012)

Project Reality: Vietnam is a spin-off to the Project Reality mod, based on Battlefield 2. The mod focuses on the Vietnam War.

The following weapons appear in the video game Project Reality: Vietnam:

Sidearms

M1911A1

The M1911A1 appears in the game as the sidearm for the US Army & Marine Corps (USMC) factions, issued to the Pilot, Officer, Sniper and interestingly enough,the Grenadier class is also issued with a M1911 instead of a rifle like the other factions that share the use of M79.

Submachine Guns

M3A1 "Grease Gun"

The M3A1 "Grease Gun" is used by the US Army & Marine Corp (USMC) factions' Crewman classes. A goof is present in that the weapon ejects rifle casings when fired, as opposed to pistol casings. It is also one of two submachine guns in the game without a semi-auto fire mode, the other being the MAT-49 mentioned below.

Sniper Rifles

M21 Designated Marksman Rifle

The NVA factions' Sniper class uses the Mosin Nagant M91/30 Sniper Rifle as their primary weapon. It functions identically to the standard M91/30 mentioned above, though with a PU scope for increased accuracy and takes a bit longer to bring to bear.

M18 Recoilless Rifle

The NVA factions' Heavy Anti-Tank class uses the M18 Recoilless Rifle under the Chinese "Type 36" designation. This is historically accurate, as the Chinese Communists captured blueprints of the M18 given to the Nationalists by the US after the Communist victory in the Chinese Civil War. They then subsequently supplied the weapon to the North Vietnamese during the war.
