1. Using This Guide
===============================================================================
The primary function of this guide is to give you a listing of all the weapons
(And other pieces of equipment in the game) and their capabilities. The weapons
are separated into five categories, Rifleman Weapons, Support Weapons, Sniper
Weapons, Demolitions Weapons and Secondary Weapons. The first four categories
divide the weapons into which class can use them in _multiplayer_ and not
single player, who can use each weapon in single player is listed under the
info for each weapon. Secondary weapons are weapons that are in the secondary
slot in a kit, who can use them is listed for each weapon. Under each weapon's
name is the ammo capacity, which is how many bullets each magazine holds for
that weapon, magazines which is how many total magazines you get for that
weapon (Note: On Recruit you will get infinite), the fire modes for the weapon
(The differences between them will be explained later) and who can use it. If
the weapon has a grenade launcher attachment that you can use, which only the
M16, OICW and AN-94 do, the grenade launcher's name will be listed next to the
name of the weapon that uses it and the grenade capacity (How many grenades
that can be loaded into it at once) and grenades, which is the total amount of
grenades that come with it will be listed. For the sniper rifles the amount of
zoom levels they have is listed, which is how many levels of zoom they have for
clicking the right joystick. Information for secondary weapons will be listed
in a similar way with notes on the weapon as well. Now, for a basic description
of the fire modes:
Semi-auto/Semi-automatic - Fires one shot every time you pull the trigger
Burst - Will fire a small burst of shots if you hold down the
trigger, pull and release quickly to only fire one or two shots
Automatic - Will fire as long as your have the trigger held down, provided that
you have ammo, of course
Bolt-action - Only on certain sniper rifles, after each shot your soldier has
to operate a bolt on the rifle to clear the empty shell casing preventing you
from firing multiple shots in succession

At any time you can check your Dossier from the main menu to check to see which
weapons you have unlocked and what you need to do to unlock the rest. What I
have provided here is a list of the requirements for each weapon straight from
the Dossier. Just start a Quick Mission on the mission and difficulty listed,
complete the mission and at the end a message should tell you that you have
unlocked the weapon, be sure to save afterwards!
