Weapons: Current Reference Catalogue
A 22-name reference union cross-checked against a current-build snapshot with 18 named weapon-like records and two unresolved record IDs.
The official game page confirms historically accurate weapons, and current official patch notes name several weapons and equipment items. A public current-build database adds a useful weapon-like record cross-check, but its own data boundary is not an official role/loadout matrix; verify availability, faction, ammunition and progression in the current client.

Do this in order
Separate current from planned
Check the latest official patch or release note before treating a roadmap weapon—such as M14, Type 56 SKS or Stoner 63—as available in the current build.
Success signal: Every weapon note has a current or planned label.
Start with the reference names
Use the 22-name catalogue to identify a weapon name, then confirm the faction, role, mode and build in the current client.
Success signal: A weapon name is tied to a concrete loadout context instead of a search result alone.
Record the role context
When a weapon is observed in-game, record faction, role, mode, platform and build instead of creating a universal class claim.
Success signal: The observation can be tied to a concrete loadout context.
Recheck after updates
Update the catalogue only from official current-build material or a documented in-game verification pass; keep third-party names labelled as leads.
Success signal: The page’s checked date matches the latest evidence pass.
Reference catalogue: 22 names to verify
The two tables below reproduce a 22-name third-party reference catalogue checked against a second in-progress list on 2026-08-30. It is a vocabulary and research lead, not an official statement that every item is available to every role. One cross-check visibly omits base Type 53, so counts should not be inferred from a single third-party page.
| Weapon / variant | Faction | Evidence boundary |
|---|---|---|
| M16A1 | US | Reference name; confirm role and current availability |
| M16A1 With Bayonet | US | Reference name; variant/loadout needs client check |
| M16A1-M203 | US | Reference name; variant/loadout needs client check |
| M1911A1 | US | Also named in official Patch 1.3 notes |
| M2A1-7 | US | Reference name; confirm role and current availability |
| M40 | US | Reference name; confirm role and current availability |
| M60 | US | Also named in current gameplay examples; confirm loadout |
| M72 | US | Reference name; confirm role and current availability |
| M79 | US | Also named in official Patch 1.3 notes |
| Model 77E | US | Reference name; confirm role and current availability |
| Weapon / variant | Faction | Evidence boundary |

| RPD | NVA | Also named in current gameplay examples; confirm loadout |
| RPG-02 | NVA | Named in a current review image caption; confirm loadout |
| Type 53 | NVA | Reference name; one cross-check omits it, so count is flagged |
| Type 53 PU | NVA | Reference variant; confirm current availability |
| Type 53 W/ N4 Rifle Launcher | NVA | Reference variant; confirm current availability |
| Type 53 w/Bayonet | NVA | Reference variant; confirm current availability |

What is confirmed separately
The official game page supplies the historically accurate weapon theme. Patch 1.3 directly names the M79, M1911A1, M183 Demolition Charge, M21 AT Mine and N4 Rifle Grenades. Current review and gameplay coverage also names examples such as M16, Type 56, M60, RPD, M79 and RPG-02. These independent mentions do not replace a role-by-role loadout matrix.

Current-build weapon-like records
The public database currently exposes 66 weapons/equipment records. The table below isolates the 20 weapon-like records that can be represented without guessing: 18 have a display label and two retain their unresolved record IDs because the source provides no display name. “Loadout references” is the source’s count of named loadout appearances, not a promise that the item is available to every role or faction.
This table is stronger than a search-only catalogue because it is tied to a public build snapshot, but it is still a reference cross-check. The database records current game Build 24741237 while the gameplay snapshot is Build 24623236; use the in-game loadout screen and official patch notes as the final authority.

Planned and still unverified
The official roadmap lists M14, Type 56 SKS and Stoner 63 as planned additions; they are not treated as current launch weapons here. The current snapshot’s unresolved records are not renamed as Type 56 or Type 53 without a display label. Exact role access, unlock path, ammunition, weight, damage, recoil and best-in-slot rankings still require a current client or official matrix.
Evidence boundary
Third-party catalogues, community database records and player videos can identify names and show one player’s equipment. They cannot independently prove universal role access or mechanics. Keep every future row attached to a faction, role, platform, build and source before promoting it beyond reference status; never fill an unresolved record from a similar-looking name.
