The American arsenal is often regarded as the best and most balanced weapon set of the four factions. It is the second largest with 6 weapons.


===M1A1===
The German force has the most balanced weapon set of the four sides. They have six weapons all together (five if you exclude the scoped Kar98k). All German weapons are best at a long range but can hold their own in close combat.
The M1A1 rifle is the weakest of all rifles in Call of Duty. Although it is weak it can be pretty powerful in the right hands, here are a few tips on how to wield an M1A1 correctly. First, this weapon is good at virtually all ranges, but not against MGs in close ranges and snipers at long ranges, so use mostly at medium-range. Second, aiming down the sight is always reccomended on this weapon because of its awkwardness when not ADS. It is also wise to refrain from switching weapons when not under cover because you have to fold the stock in and then bring out the next weapon, this wastes precious seconds and can easily leave yourself exposed to enemy fire or rifle butts. This weapon has a 15 round magazine and is of light-weight.


===M1 Garand===
==Kar98k==
Much different than the M1A1, the Garand is extremely accurate and powerful. The only draw back is does not have a good rate of fire and it can't be quick-loaded, you must use all 8 rounds. This is hardly a problem because it does not take much to reload this gun, just insert the rounds and you're set. Use at medium to long ranges. This weapon has an 8 round magazine and is of light-weight.
The Kar98k is the main long rifle for the German force, it is light and compact. It is very capable at long ranges because of its very accurate iron sights. It has a five round clip that can be quick-loaded at any given time. Stay at longer ranges, close combat is a very bad idea for ''any rifle''. If the chance is there a rifle butt is very strong with this weapon, use if needed.


===BAR===
==MP40==
The Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) is a heavy machine gun for the American faction. It has a 20 round magazine and is very heavy with a fairly quick rate of fire. The BAR is a support gun, meaning it should not be used in an offensive operation. Stay at medium to long ranges and use the sight while crouched (or prone). Reload often before you spot an enemy advance.
The MP40 is the main sub-machine gun for the German force. It has a 32 round clip, is very light and compact. The MP40 is actually quite capable at medium ranges, shoot in bursts because of its low rate of fire. At close ranges try to aim above the torso, don't worry about any kickback, it has a low one.


===Thompson===
==MP44==
The Thompson (Tommy Gun) is the American's one and only sub-machine gun. It has an extremely good rate of fire, is of light weight and has a 30 round magazine. Since this is a sub-machine gun that should be used at short ranges for offensive operations.
The MP44 is capable as both a rifle and a heavy machine gun. Because of its high kickback and low rate of fire it is wise to aim below the torso and ignore constraining the weapon at close ranges, shooting in bursts is also recommended. At long ranges make sure you are crouched. This weapon has a 30 round magazine and is of medium weight.
 
==Gewehr 43==
The G43 is a medium-weight semi-automatic rifle. It is quite accurate but is very slow reloading and has an extremely high kickback. At medium range to long range sights should always be used, close ranges should not need the use of the sight. This weapon has a 10 round magazine and is aof medium/light weight.
 
==Scoped Kar98k==
This is virtually the same rifle as the Kar98k but has a scope. Like any other sniper, it should '''only''' be used at long ranges. Medium range is fine, but stay out of danger with any sniper rifle. This weapon has a five round capacity with a single bullet load system, it is slightly heavier than the Kar98k.
 
==MG34==
The MG34 is a mountable machine gun and can only be fired when mounted. It is recommended to find decent, solid cover and at a long distance from any enemies. This is a support gun, meaning charging or rushing with this gun is an extremely bad idea. This weapon has a 75 round magazine, a very good rate of fire and his quite heavy.
