I. GUIDE INFORMATION
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
=====================
This guide lists every weapon and item available in the game, and the
details about each weapon. For the primary weapons, I list a number of
things. The magazine capacity, which is how many shots one clip will
hold. Firing modes, which determine weapon's fire rates. Single means
semi-automatic mode, where you only fire one bullet when you pull the
trigger. 3-round burst means that you can only fire up to 3 rounds
automatically at one time. Full auto means that you can fire the gun
automatically. I list the caliber of the weapon, and the secondary
equipment that can be taken with the weapon. I also list the characters
that use the weapon, and any other info on the weapon I might have.
If you have any concerns about this guide, feel free to write to me at
[email protected] I will not answer questions about anything stated
in the guide, and I may not answer your e-mail at all, depending on how
backed up my inbox is.

& Koch. The OICW has a rough version of the G36K built in, to fire like
a normal 5.56mm rifle. It also has a 20mm launcher that can fire

shells to explode before he fires them.

VIII. SECONDARY ITEMS
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
======================
----------------
M9
The Beretta M92FS, a 9mm pistol, common throughout the world. Almost
everyone has the option of using this or the M9 SD as a secondary weapon
in Ghost Recon.
----------------
M9 SD
The Beretta M92FS with a suppressor. The SD stands for Suppressed.
----------------
9mm Russian
A handgun. Don't know much about it.
----------------
9mm SA
Handgun.
----------------
Claymore
A claymore mine is a mine that contains several hundred steel balls and
packs C4 explosives. When you detonate it, it explodes, shooting the
steel balls into whatever is in front of the mine. These balls go fast
enough to penetrate steel, and will most likely tear apart anything in
front of the mine. The explosion is usually in one direction, so
wherever you point the mine when you are placing it is where it will
explode towards when you detonate it.
----------------
Demo
A demolitions charge. Explosives. Most likely C4.
----------------
M136
The M136 AT4 is a lightweight anti-tank weapon. Fires an 84mm rocket,
and is fired from a persons shoulder. When you fire this weapon, you
have to be either in the standing or kneeling position, and it will not
let you fire until the crosshairs have closed in, so you can't be moving
when you fire it.
----------------
Sensor
Detects the heartbeats of enemies close to you.
----------------
Binoculars
No need to explain.
----------------
Extra Ammo
Adds more magazines to the primary weapon you are carrying.

A 40mm grenade launcher for the M16.
