A.V.A Winchester M1887

The Winchester Model 1887 and Winchester Model 1901 were lever-action shotguns originally designed by famed American gun designer John Browning and produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The Model 1887 was the first truly successful repeating shotgun. Its lever-action design was chosen at the behest of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company, best known at the time as manufacturers of lever-action firearms such as the Winchester model 1873. Designer John Browning suggested that a pump-action would be much more appropriate for a repeating shotgun, but Winchester management's position was that, at the time, the company was known as a "lever-action firearm company", and felt that their new shotgun must also be a lever-action for reasons of brand recognition. Browning responded by designing a breech-loading, rolling block lever-action. To Winchester's credit, however, they later introduced a Browning designed pump-action shotgun known as the Model 1893 (an early production version of the model 1897), after the introduction of smokeless powder.
Shotgun shells at the time used black powder as a propellant, and so the Model 1887 shotgun was designed and chambered for less powerful black powder shotshells. Both 10 and 12-gauge models were offered in the Model 1887. It was soon realized that the action on the M1887 was not strong enough to handle early smokeless powder shotshells, and so a redesign resulted in the stronger Winchester Model 1901, 10-gauge only, to handle the advent of the more powerful smokeless powder. A 12-gauge chambering was not offered, as Winchester did not want the Model 1901 to compete with their successful 12-gauge Model 1897 pump-action shotgun. Other distinguishing characteristics of the Model 1901 are:
  • a two piece lever
  • the Winchester trademark stamp was moved to the upper tang, behind the hammer
  • serial numbers between 64,856 and 79,455
Although a technically sound gun design, the market for lever-action shotguns waned considerably, as John Browning had predicted, after the introduction of the Winchester 1897 and other contemporary pump-action shotguns. Model 1887 production totaled 64,855 units between 1887 and 1901. Between 1901 and 1920, an additional 14,600 Model 1901 shotguns were manufactured before the Model 1887/1901 product line was discontinued. Serial numbers for the Model 1901 started where the serial numbers of the Model 1887 left off at 64,856 and ran through number 79,455. Thus, only 14,600 Model 1901s were produced indicating the declining demand for the lever action design.

A.V.A Colt SAA

The Colt SAA (Single Action Army), is a revolver also known as "The Peacemaker", and is commonly associated with the American "Old West".
This gun is unique as it has a completely different set of animations for all interactions with the gun ( due to its simpler, older design). Since it uses a chamber mechanism, each bullet must be reloaded (and un-loaded) individually, giving it a unique (but extremely long) reload animation. Since the hammer must be cocked manually between every shot, the player uses the left hand to pull it back, giving it both a unique animation when shooting, as well as a unique idle stance.
Preformance wise, it sports a high fire rate, high stability, good damage, tolerable accuracy, and predictable vertical recoil. In fact, the only true weakness this weapon is its extremely long reload animation, which balances out this otherwise overpowered weapon.
It is often a headshot in one bullet at any range (depending on enemy armor), and can kill between 2-4 bullets to the torso, depending on range.
It is a highly recommended candidate for those who want to "Main" a pistol. Do note that while it fares very well in competitive game modes (demolition, TDM, etc.), it is not as effective for other gametypes (escort, AI missions, etc.) since the reload animation and short clip hinder its ability in prolonged firefights.
Although the weapon shells are loaded individually, it appears you cannot shoot mid-animation (unconfirmed).

A.V.A Khukuri

The kukri (Nepali: खुकुरी, alternatively spelled Khukri or Khukuri) is aNepalese Knife with an inwardly curved edge, used as both a tool and as a weapon.
The kukri was, and in many cases still is, the basic and traditional utility knife of the Nepalese people. It is a symbolic weapon of the Nepalese Army, and of all Gurkha regiments throughout the world. It is a part of the regimental weaponry and heraldry of the Royal Gurkha Rifles, and is used in many traditional rituals among different ethnic groups of Nepal, including one where the groom wears one during the wedding ceremony. It is known to many people as simply the "Gurkha blade" or "Gurkha knife".
The pronunciation "kukri" is of Western origin, as the Nepalese people to whom this weapon belongs pronounce it with three syllables - "Khukuri."
