The program would be cancelled only 19 days after the game's release, meaning it would not become the M8 in production as the video-games designers had assumed. While it was put on hold in mid-2005, it was still alive at the time of SOCOM 3's release on October 11, 2005. XM8 (M8 in-game)- The XM8 rifle project was intended to become the new standard infantry rifle of the United States army.M4A1- A shorter and lighter version of the M16, the M4 and it's M4A1 counterpart were designed for close-quarters combat, and its light weight makes it a good weapon of choice for special operations.It had a barrel with the same length as that of the M14's, but had an in-line stock and use the smaller 5.56mmx45mm NATO Assault Rifle cartidges at an ROF of 400-600 RPM. M16A2- In the later years of the war in Vietnam, the M14 was gradually replaced by the lighter M16 in many of its roles.The gun had a 22" barrel and could fire 7.62mmx51mm NATO Battle Rifle cartridges at an ROF (Rate of Fire) of 400-600 RPM (Rounds Per Minute).

M14- Designed in the late 1950s and used heavily in the early years of the Vietnam war, the M14 is a powerful Battle Rifle with heavy recoil thanks to its old styled buttstock.The following is a list of weapons available in the game and their real-life counterparts. The weapons are not only designed to look like their real life counterparts, but their performance characteristics are also very similar, such as rafe of fire, accuracy, and reload time. About a year after the game's release, the game was re-released, but with the 'Greatest Hits' title as a 'Game of the Year' edition. It is the sequel to SOCOM 2: U.S Navy SEALs. Navy SEALs is a First-Person Shooter game developed by Zipper Interactive and published by Sony.
