I downloaded Combat Arms a few days ago(boring compared to CF) and it has a TON of weapons and lots of customizations, so I thought maybe I'll toss some ideas for new weapons and customizations around on here and get some opinions :P

Battle Rifles:

M14. 20 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition. (Think Scar H with longer barrel and semi-auto), maybe options for red dot scopes so you could snipe/harass the enemy with it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M14_rifle

Mark 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle (EBR). A modernized variant of the M14 with selective fire, composites used in place of wooden furniture and a barrel that can use a suppressor and picatinny rails for scopes/holo sights.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Navy_Mark_14_Mod_0_Enhanced_Battle_Rifle

FN FAL. Similar to the M14 but developed in Europe with literally dozens of variants.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_FAL

SA58 OSW. Modern variant of the FAL with a shortened barrel and selective fire capabilities.

http://www.dsarms.com/Mini-SA58-FAL-OSW-Rifle-Semi-Auto-308-Cal----SA58OSW/productinfo/SA58OSW/

Heckler & Koch G3. Full auto rifle (a.k.a Tons of damage, fast).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G3_rifle

Assault Rifles.

IMI Tavor TAR-21. The replacement for the Galil, Small bullpup design and super accurate.(Is it just me or does it look like the health indicator ingame shows a soldier with a TAR-21 or a AICW)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tavor

The Galil. (Why not include a full length version of the Micro-Galil)

SA80. You have the French FAMAS the Austrian Steyr AUG and the Chinese QBZ-95. Why not the british SA80? after all, one of the character classes is the SAS!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SA80

FN2000. there's the P90, why not have the full size counterpart? 30 round magazine with a scope built into the body of the rifle.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_F2000

Barrett REC7 (Formerly the M468) a modified M16/M4 upper receiver, use's the 6.8mm Remington SPC round, which boasts 50% more stopping power and longer range.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REC7

Heckler & Koch HK 416 and 417. Similar to the M4 carbine, the HK 416 is an rifle built upon some of the M4's features with many new ones introduced from the G36. The HK 417 is like the 416 except its chambered for the 7.62mm round (Scar H competitor).

AS VAL. A Russian silenced assault rifle

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AS_Val

Nikonov AN-94. Designed to replace the AK series of assault rifles this rifle proved to be to costly for widespread adoption so it is used by russian SPEC OP units. Fire's at a rate of 1800 RPM, so a second bullet will be out the barrel before the recoil is felt for increased hit and lethality.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN-94

Sub Machine Gun's

Heckler & Koch G36C. A shortened version of the G36 with a picatinny rail for optional holo sights, etc.

Heckler & Koch UMP. A SMG made to replace the MP5. Chambered in 9mm .40S&W and .45ACP.

PP-19 Bizon. A SMG based on a AK-74 receiver with a magazine holding 45+ rounds, underneath the barrel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PP-19_Bizon

PP-2000. A Russian PDW of the likes of the MP7 and P90. Spare mag can be used as a stock.

http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg61-e.htm

AK-74U. Shortened version of the AK-74.

http://world.guns.ru/assault/as03-e.htm

Brugger & Thomet MP 9/Steyr TMP. Pistol sized SMG has low recoil so dual wielding is no problem. (ZP version could be the arctic camo version: white, grey and black digitized squares with a suppressor)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brugger_%26_Thomet_MP9

Ingram MAC-10. Small SMG with a blistering rate of fire. Has a threaded barrel to accept a suppressor (has renown because it is so silent with the suppressor)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC-10

Type 05. Chinese SMG that resembles the QBZ-95, has option for a suppressor.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QCW-05

Skorpion. Small fast firing SMG with low recoil, (option for dual wield).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%A0korpion_vz._61

Machine Guns.

Only 1 MG in the whole game? and its outdated at that! Here's some modern suggestions.

M249. An American version of the Belgian Minimi. Fires the standard 5.56mm NATO round, can use STANAG magazines(M16) or belts.

MK 48 Mod 0-1 the M249 upscaled to fire 7.62mm ammo, used by the SEAL's.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M249

M240. American designation of the Belgian FN MAG. Belt fed, fires 7.62mm, replaced the M60 as the GPMG of choice.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M240

RPK. Light machine gun version of the AK-47-74. Use's Standard box magazines. (not really modern but its a shift from the stereotypical belt fed MG's)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPK

Heckler & Koch MG4. Somewhat similar to the M249, has a built in scope like the G36.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_&_Koch_MG4

Sniper Rifles.
(I know people say that the AWM is good enough and there's too many snipers as it is, but I'm just listing these for variety)

SR-25. a modern re-imagining of the AR-10, fires the 7.62mm round and has a silencer.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SR-25

M110. a updated SR-25 with a desert camo paint job and a scope that can see through smoke[grenades]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M110_Semi-Automatic_Sniper_System

Barrett M98B. You have the AWM which fires the .300 Winchester Magnum round, so why not kick the deadly factor up a notch with this sniper rifle? It fires the .338 Lapua Magnum which has increased velocity and range and has a 10 round clip.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrett_M98B

Cheytac Intervention series. Fires the .408 CheyTac, can give headshot up to a mile away. (not much function, but it would look cool)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CheyTac_Intervention

Barrett M82/107 and XM500. Fires the .50 BMG long range rifle that can inflict horrible damage (perfect for Monaco, when you want to punch through crates and walls)

Barrett XM109. Fire a 25mm round. (This sucker could punch through a wall and kill TWO people behind it).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrett_XM109
http://media.popularmechanics.com/images/lg_xm109-lg.jpg (had to include the image link)

Pistols.

FN Five-Seven. Up to 30 rounds of 5.7mm ammunition with excellent penetrating power (shreds helmets and vests) and 30% less recoil than 9mm. With an accessory rail under the barrel for a laser sight or flashlight.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_Five-Seven

Silenced .22. could be useful if you're hidden with a good shot at the enemy.

Shotguns.
Quite a few people lament the lack of more shotguns specifically pump actions, there are 2 options for this issue: 1: release a patch enabling alternate pump modes on the current shotguns (they both do in real life) or 2: Release new models :D

Remington Model 870 TAC Desert Recon. Remington 870 with desert camo paint job and spiked choke (could have a alternate melee mode where you stab/lunge at the enemy with the shotgun due to the choke)

http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/shotguns/model_870/model_870_TAC_Desert_Recon.asp

Mossberg 500 Cruiser Pump action shotgun with a pistol grip (3 possible paint jobs)

http://www.mossberg.com/products/default.asp?id=28&section=products

MAG-7. a small almost pistol sized pump action shotgun with a 5 round magazine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAG-7

XM-26 LSS. A bolt action shotgun designed to attach to the underside of a M16/M4's barrel (similar to the M203 grenade launcher). Can also be used in a stand alone configuration with a stock and pistol grip attached, has a 6 round box magazine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M26_Modular_Accessory_Shotgun_System

Saiga 12. 12 gauge shotgun made on the Kalashnikov assault rifle design, has a box magazine of up to 8 rounds.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saiga-12

Can be modified for a great "shock and awe" weapon :p
http://www.dinzagarms.com/saiga_12/large/saiga-12_belt_400.jpg

Vepr 12. Developed as a competitor to the Saiga 12, can use Saiga magazines.

http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh33-e.htm

Atchisson assault shotgun/AA-12

Originally developed in the 70's this was brought back to life as the AA-12, has magazins with capacity's up to 32 rounds and is fully automatic.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atchisson_Assault_Shotgun

USAS-12 Designed after the AA-12 after the original design stagnated for over 20 years, it sold well to military and security forces of several (unspecified) countries in Asia (would fit in to the mercenaries theme of crossfire) Superficially resembles a bulky K-2 assault rifle.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usas_12

Pancor Jackhammer. A full auto shotgun that never made it to production, but had the interesting feature of, the drum magazine being able to be turned into a anti personnel land mine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancor_Jackhammer
Grenade's and Grenade Launcher's

I know that the "Guns not to suggest" sticky said no grenade launchers.... but they were probably thinking of explosive grenades :P

Brugger & Thomet GL-06. a 40mm grenade launcher that fires less than lethal ammunition (heavy emphasis on "less than")

http://www.brugger-thomet.ch/en/manufacturing/firearms/gl06.php?navanchor=2110034

Tear gas Grenade. What this would do is blur the vision of those affected thus affecting their aiming.

Heavy Weapons.

Suitcase Nuke for S&D matches. (just kidding :p)

M134/XM214 Minigun. Just had to throw this in here as no Weapon suggestion post is complete without it :p
Items: In the owned items page for players the SCAR-H has a Aimpoint CompM2 installed in the rail, a sign of things to come?

Various ACOG and ITL MARS sights that can be purchased with GP

Laser sights such as this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/PEQ-2

Weapon mounted flashlights: would open up some new possibility's like evening/dusk maps or night maps, à la Left 4 Dead style gameplay.

Again sorry for the long post. Please comment on what you think is a good idea and not so good, like, dislike, etc.
