The Regiment

The Regiment is a first person shooter in which you control a team of operators from the SAS, the principal special forces unit of the British Army. As a tactical shooter, the AI team members can be controlled using a radial menu, with commands such as flashbangs, opening doors, handcuffing hostages or providing cover. Technical advice was provided by former S.A.S. veteran John McAleese and former S.A.S. staff instructor Rhett Butler, who appear in video briefings. The game has four multi-stage scenarios that can be played in singleplayer or co-op: the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege, an IRA bomb-making operation on a farm, a Fedayeen terrorist attack on the London Underground, and a takeover of Parliament by far-right nationalists.
Whilst praised for its room-clearing mechanics and accurate location recreations, an overly-onerous training segment and the short nature of its missions led to poor critical reception. The game was later released in the US under the title Terror Strike: Close Quarters Combat and Operation: Hostage Rescue with the online multiplayer removed leaving only LAN.
=Pistols=
==Beretta 92FS Inox==
==Browning BDA==
The Browning BDA appears frequently in the IRA farm mission. Its magazines hold an underloaded 12 rounds instead of the 14-round maximum. Like other pistols, it erroneously fires in double-action-only.
==SIG-Sauer P226==
The SIG-Sauer P226 is the player's default starting pistol and sometimes used by terrorists.
==Heckler & Koch Mark 23==
The Heckler & Koch Mark 23 replaces the P226 in certain missions and can be rarely found on enemies.
Oddly despite having a LAM, the Mark 23 lacks a usable flashlight unlike the MP5.
=Shotguns=
==Remington 870 Entry Gun==
The Remington 870 is used for breaching doors and is given the generic name of "Shotgun" in-game. Its files show it's actually modelled after the Maruzen CA870 airsoft gun.
There are two different "versions", the player and their wingman always carries one in it's own dedicated slot but enemies carry one that can be picked up as a separate weapon that replaces the player's primary weapon.
=Sub-machine Guns=
==Heckler & Koch MP5A5==
The player starts every mission equipped with some MP5 variant, all with burst modes and straight magazines. The most common one is the MP5A5.
The training MP5 is explicitly called an "MP5-10" but all other variants are not referred to as an MP5-10 variant and the MP5SD6 notably does not come in a 10mm variant. (Considering how other weapons like the AUG mostly load from straight or not as curved as reality magazines, it is likely the developers had issues modelling non-straight magazines.)
==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
The long foregrip is reminiscent of the Daisy Softair Model, but is more likely a result of taking the MP5A5 mesh and tweaking it to produce an MP5K.
==Heckler & Koch MP5SD6==
==MAC-10==
==Uzi==
=Assault Rifles=
==AK-47==
==AKS-74U==
==Heckler & Koch G3SG/1==
==Mk 18 Mod 0==
==SIG SG 551==
The SIG SG 551 is used heavily by anti-EU nationalists in the Parliament mission. Comes with an ACOG scope and three magazines clipped together though these are not used when reloading and it holds 30 rounds.
==Steyr AUGA2==
The game's AUG uses a Leupold scope and straight magazines and starts appearing in the London Underground missions.
=Machine Guns=
==M60==
The M60 appears in low numbers in every mission as the game's only machine gun.
=Grenades=
==L2A2 Hand Grenade==
The L2A2 Hand Grenade appears as the frag grenade of the game.
It is used by both SAS and Terrorists.
==G60 Stun Grenade==
==L13A1 Irritant Anti-Riot Hand Grenade==
The L13A1 Irritant Anti-Riot Hand Grenade appears as the tear gas grenade of the game.
It also appears in the second Farm mission where it appears to be standing in for a smoke grenade used by the terrorists. (Sending out much more smoke and not choking nearby enemies.)
=Other=
==Explosive Charge==
An explosive charge is used by enemies as a booby trap and the SAS to destroy a generator in the third farm mission.
