Gusenberg Sweeper
A drum-fed Prohibition-era submachine gun that the HD-era games file with the light machine guns rather than the submachine guns, which is where this catalogue follows them rather than reclassifying it by what it resembles.

Machine Gun
The only automatic weapon in the 1997 game and both London expansions, and the earliest firearm this database holds. What kind of firearm is not established: the research base calls it "an unknown assault rifle-like firearm", and a resemblance is not a classification.

Sniper Rifles1 game2002PSG-1
Vice City's laser-sighted rifle, and the weapon its longest-range missions are designed around. The day-one PS2 release shows it as the PSG1 and every version since 2003 shows it as the .308 Sniper — two names for one Heckler & Koch SR9(T), and which of them this catalogue should lead with is an editorial question nobody has answered.
