Alcala-Cordel primarily uses the AKM from a pre-Revolution stockpile. The AKM is part of the AK series, having been obtained in bulk by the Alcalan capitalist state to fight the Cordelian monarchy from arms dealers after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The new government of Alcala-Cordel has reverse-engineered this weapon and new, modified versions are being produced as well.Image -Image from Wikipedia

Federation of Novosibirsk Titoists has three main service rifles:

Image
AR-18 or BWD-1 - which is chambered in 5.56x45, shoots around 750 rounds/min and is also regarded as reliable and accurate.

Image
QBZ-95 or M95 - which is chambered 5.8x42, shoots around 650 rounds/min and is infamous for bad manufacturing quality and height of scope over bore which makes it pain in the butt to shoot up close.

Image
AK-74- which is chambered 5.45x39, about 600 rounds/min and is really reliable and widespread(having over 5 million produced)

The C7A2 at the moment is the standard service rifle. But it is to be replaced with the Rifle Modularek Moderne Monsone (RMMM) which will be very different to say the least.

The MP5K is the main service weapon. It is favored because of it's light weight and small size.

Sladerstanian forces have 3 variants of this gun, for long range, a semi-automatic scoped version,

For close range, a burst fire reflex sight version,

And the image is what Military personnel and Police officers carry. Yes police have submachine guns on them.

We are receiving the HK 416 and HK417 (as squad marksman rifle) which won the contest to by next assault rifle. Currently is in use in regular Army and is only used in small numbers the territorial Army and the reserves. They replace the indigenous C5 assault rifle also a 5.56 NATO rifle. That many considered a FN FNC clone because of their external similarities.

An infantryman of the 2nd Battalion Limburgic Regiment of Light Infantry "Regiment Limburgse Jagers" using an FN FAL 50.42, otherwise known to Limburgians as "Masjienejeweer 55" or MG55 / MJ55 during the civil war in Luxembourg-Bavaria.


The most common weapon you'll find in Limburg's weermoag is the FN FAL. Aside from the standard battle rifle, several variants, such as the German G1 or even the Commonwealth L1A1, have found their ways into Limburgian arms depots. The nation does not have an "official" main service weapon, as the army originally had to make due with what they had, and still continues to issue soldiers whatever weapons are lying around from the civil war. Generally, elite units such as the Free Limburgian Legion or the pantsersjütze have better equipment, such as HK416 rifles or FN SCAR-Ls, but the same rule of scrambling together whatever you have still applies. It's why some militia units use ancient bolt-action firearms, and why officers and enlisted men alike walk around with all sorts of strange and exotic pistols, some confiscated from police stations, some forcefully taken from private individuals, and some from God knows where.

The primary service weapon in Kinnes Islands is the G36 and its variants G36K and G36C. It was chosen because of its all-around versatility and performance in various scenarios. Other lesser-used variants include the G36E, G36V, G36KV
G36CV, and MG36.

Image

Firing Types: Semi-automatic, Automatic
Operating Mechanism: Gas-operated
Ammo Type: 5.56×45m
Magazine Types: 30-round magazines, 50-round magazines, 100-round drums
Accessories: Suppressor, Sling, Speed-loading device, Bayonet


In the event of the primary rifle overheating, which can occur during prolonged periods of rapid-fire, the secondary service weapon becomes a suitable alternative. The MP5 and it's variants MP5A (long-range) and MP5K (close-range) are used as a secondary or backup weapon that is most effective in close to mid-range but can also be usable even in distant engagements.

Firing Types: Semi-automatic, Automatic
Operating Mechanism: Gas-operated
Ammo Type: 9x19mm
Magazine Types: 15-round magazines, 30-round magazines, 40-round magazines
Accessories: Suppressor, Extended Stock, Handguards, Speed-loading device

There are two variants of service weapons in the North American Forces, a rifle and carbine version. But both derive from the Colt-Arms Material-Enfield Type 69 Rifle, developed in the late 1960s after learning about the limitations of the United Commonwealth standardized .280 intermediate cartridge and the Self-Loading Rifle and the Stirling Stensa Mk.II sub-machine gun with 9 mm Pistol Parabellum rounds. It can be said that the main service weapon system is the Colt-Arms Material-Enfield Multi-purpose Rifle System model 4 (MRS-4).

The North American Army, Royal North American Navy, Royal North American Air Force, and the Corps of Royal NA Marines use the L58A3 Self-Loading Rifle as their main service rifle. This is the modular rifle system of the MRS-4.

It fires the .280/ND UC (United Commonwealth) intermediate cartridge (about 6.25 mm). There are also variants that have modular rails to allow for attachments, including four rails for the barrel; common variants have one rail for a sight.

The standard variant:
Image

For vehicle crews, special forces, armoured regiments, most NA Army Rangers, and most Marine Commandos, the Self-Loading Carbine is used.
Image

L76A3 Light Support Weapon (LSW) is used as a Section Automatic Weapon, but this weapon modular variant is currently being phased out in favor other SAW used by the NAF. The LSW is used by Provincial Forces of the NAU.
