Jonathan Ferguson, a weapons expert and Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries, breaks down the weaponry of Insurgency Sandstorm, including the MP5 SD submachine gun, the Russian PK machine gun, and the iconic RPG-7.
Insurgency Sandstorm offers a realistic take on the tactical shooter genre and includes a range of contemporary weaponry such as the Heckler & Koch G36, the British SA80 rifle, and, of all things, a Welrod silenced pistol from the Second World War.
In the above video Jonathan Ferguson, a weapons expert and Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries, breaks down the guns of Insurgency Sandstorm and compares them to their real-world counterparts.

I want this exact thing. From what I can tell, the game based a lot of their weapons off of real guns with slightly different names. But I just want to see Jon's reaction to attention to detail for reloads. When you lose rounds by opening an internal magazine early, how much time it takes to use the "push-pin" design a lot of revolvers had at the time. I think he'd get a kick out of it.

Another great thing that Insurgency Sandstorm models not mentioned in the video is that it not only models what happens if you interrupt your reload partway through (left with a gun that only has one round in the chamber and no loaded magazine), but also lets you choose to quickly reload by discarding a partially spent mag, or reload more slowly and put the magazine back in your vest for potential later use. The attention to detail is truly superb.

It goes beyond simple inspiration: some of the E-11s used by Storm Troopers in the Original Trilogy were modified Sterlings, while others were non-firing custom made models based on the modified Sterlings (both to keep cost down and reduce the headache of trying to both acquire submachine guns in the UK and then export some of them from the UK to some of the places they were filming, like Tunisia). Think some of the blasters used by the Rebels in the OT were also heavily modified Sterlings.

​@@bnt8999 Many guns in the Star Wars movie are based on real guns, some of them are even based on WW2 guns, Forgotten Weapons actually made a video to talk about the prop guns used in the Star War movie. Also, it's not uncommon for sci-fi movies to use prop guns based on real guns, Gamespot made a video that introduces the M41A Pulse Rifle(which is built on Thompson sub-machine gun) in the Aliens series, Jonathan Ferguson is also in that video.

One of the main problems with modern suppressed semi-auto firearms is the sound of the action working, which can be as much as 110 decibels by itself. A Welrod, with only the firing pin moving when firing, with a fresh set of rubber wipes installed, would arguably be quieter than any automatic on the market by an order of magnitude.

In addition you can pull most bolts and all slides back, press a button, and lock the bolt/slide open like on AR family, H&K (can even ableit its very janky, hk slap it), and pretty well all handguns minus the revolvers (lil disapointed you cant fan the hammer on them)

The last known use of Welrod by British was in Falklands (1982) where there was at least one Welrod used to take out a couple of sentries - what is not known is if it was officially issued or if an officer or someone else took one along that they personally owned - but it did its job even in 1982.

Also a nice detail about the tracers: you only see them every once and a while, because standard procedure is to have, say, for every five normal rounds, have one tracer round (probably nor ight but you get the point,) as it lets the shooter get a better aim on target while lowering the chances of the enemy seeing them.
