Putting Names On TS Weapons

By SentryBotBuddy

First off is the K-SMG. Since Anya says the weapon is not on file for the time period and it was custom built, this obviously wasn't ever a real weapon, and it comes a bit too early in the time line for anything of its style. If we exclude the grenade launcher, the weapon can be looked at as a classic older submachine gun. We have determined it doesn't have any direct similarity with a real weapon. However, it does have similarities with the Chinese Type 85 silence machine-gun, which was developed in the 1980's. It also bears a good resemblance to the famous German MP40 submachine gun, which was used throughout the Second World War.

Next we have the infamous Soviet Rifle. We can narrow it down to being a Russian assault rifle, most likely a Kalashnikov rifle (AK). It does not look exactly like the AK-47, because it doesn't have a stock or a wooden grip. As I continued my search down the line of AK's, I found the AK-103 which seemed to bear the most resemblance. However, upon further inspection, it is actually a cross between two popular Vietnam-era weapons, the AK-47 and the M-16A1. It basically has the grip and large magazine and receiver of the AK, and a slightly shortened barrel/foregrip similar to that on the M16A1.

And how can we forget the Machine Gun, one of TS:FP's best weapons in my opinion. This was a real tough one to figure out, but it appears to be an MP5K with a straight clip. If it were slightly larger, it would bear some resemblance to the UMP (but once again, it would need a vertically-positioned clip.) This is definitely some sort of German SMG. There's also a gun called a Spectre that's made in Italy, which bears some resemblance. I'd definitely lean a bit more toward the MP5 though.

Now for a popular one, the Tactical 12 Gauge. It's a Benneli M4. 'Nuff said.

On to the sniper rifles now! Well, the Vintage Rifle is undoubtedly a Springfield 1903, the famous rifle that helped the Americans during WWII.

The Sniper Rifle appears to be a modernized Beretta sniper.

On to the pistols now! The Kruger 9mm is simply a modified Luger pistol, made famous by the Germans in both World Wars. More on this topic can be found in a thread on the TimeSplitters Musicbox forums entitled Mystery.

The LX-18 is similar to a Glock handgun, although more futuristic in design.

The classic 9mm however is most likely a shiny silver .45 Colt 1911 pistol.

The Revolver was a tough one. After some time of searching I found the Ruger Super Red Hawk double-action revolver that seems to resemble it. As for the Shotgun, that appears to just be a generic weapon. It could not be any sort of simple mass-produced designated weapon, because the time period these were being built everyone just made their own. If you really want to label a manufacturer on it, I'd point at Winchester.

The baseball bat! This weapon was invented for a sport that involves hitting a ball with it. Tada!

The SBP500 is another futuristic weapon, but it traces its roots back to TS2's SBP90, which is similar to the Belgian P90 Machine Gun.

Lastly we move to the heat seeker. This is an interesting one. It's based on the M136 anti-tank. Actually, being that this is a grenade launcher, it is probably a different weapon, however the exteriors look similar. Well now, I gotta fly!
