Zombie Colony will initially ship with very basic, but functional weapons that cover the bases for combat styles. Confirmed features: a slower reload when not completely out of ammunition, functional iron sights, bullet drop and travel time over range, dynamic scopes, and the ability to change ammunition.

Features that may be added include magazines being actual items, jamming and quality of ammunition.

9mm Handgun [Image]
Type: Handgun
Caliber: 9mm Parabellum (Average)
Capacity: 17 Rounds
Fire Mode: Semi Automatic

Description: The Glock 17 is one of the most common pistols in the world, so it was an obvious choice for the bread-and-butter handgun in Zombie Colony. It is relatively accurate, holds many rounds and is very reliable. It's the starting weapon of the players for most game modes and is a very dependable backup even in late-game.


.357 Revolver [Image]
Type: Handgun
Caliber: .357 Magnum (Average-High)
Capacity: 6 Rounds
Fire Mode: Semi Automatic

Description: The S&W M13 is a lesser-known revolver, a .357 Magnum version of the earlier, and highly successful M10 series. It's intended to represent the medium-sized, easy handling .357s that made S&W famous.

Gameplay wise, it is a lower-capacity, more powerful and slightly more accurate alternative to the Glock, equally functional as a backup but tailored to a slightly differing style.


.22 LR Handgun [Image]
Type: Handgun
Caliber: .22 LR (Low)
Capacity: 10 Rounds
Fire Mode: Semi Automatic

Description: An extremely common Ruger .22 pistol with a bull barrel and fine sights, designed for target use and plinking.

Firing a weak round, the Ruger is good for learning general handgun handling and markmanship while ammo is short, as well as finishing off crawlers and slower zombies. With an improvised suppressor, it can be quite a handy gun for scavenging missions.


Riot Shotgun [Image]
Type: Shotgun
Caliber:12 Gauge (High)
Capacity: 8 Rounds
Fire Mode: Pump-Action

Description: An Ithaca 37 shotgun designed for police use, this model is equipped with an extended tube magazine, notch-and-post sights, and a brace for the barrel and magazine tube. One of the oldest designs still in production, the Ithaca is notable for it's slick action and ambidextrous design.

Shotguns, due to their lack of magazines and versatile ammunition selection, often become the primary weapon of choice in Zombie Colony, but small mag cap, slow reloads and bulky ammo means they take quite a bit of finesse to employ properly. Every shot, no matter how powerful must count.


Ranch Rifle [Image]
Type: Rifle
Caliber: .223 Remington (Average)
Capacity: 30 Rounds
Fire Mode: Semi-Automatic

Description: This rifle is a Ruger Mini-14 with an traditional M-14 style scope mount and an Aimpoint sight. The Mini-14 series is very common in the US, and this rifle was a way to slip in a very civilian, relatively common weapon without straying into the immediately recognizable AR or AK territory.

A sort of "civilian assault rifle," the Mini-14 is not exceptional for it's class, but is far more accurate than most early game rifles, and the red-dot sight enhances accuracy even in unexperienced hands. It doesn't recoil very hard and packs a lot of rounds, lending to the Mini's versatility.


Hunting Rifle [Image]
Type: Rifle
Caliber: 308 Winchester (High)
Capacity: 5 Rounds
Fire Mode: Bolt-Action

Description: A slightly less mainstream rifle, the CZ-550 American is a relatively conventional firearm firing a variety of full-bore rounds. It is effective, simple, and elegant. The slightly unfamiliar lines of the CZ are intended to reflect how many hunting weapons exist outside of the Winchester, Remington and Accuracy International designs that litter video games and movies.

The CZ functions purely as a sniper rifle in Zombie Colony. With an internal magazine, reloads are slow, and the bolt slows recovery between shots. Extremely powerful and long-ranged, it can make short work of any normal enemy.
