This weapon is powerful in close quarters combat and is capable of killing even the strongest of hostile targets. This is in addition to its good chance to outright stun enemies if you fire at them at very close range. It is, however, difficult to use as the shotgun has to be cocked after ever time its fired. Ammo management can be difficult as well.

This weapon also has a inbuilt auto-lock system preventing the fired grenades from detonating if they hit a target that is too close to the weapon handler.<br>This is only available for '''Specialists''' using the '''Heavy Grenadier Loadout'''.
 
 
'''Ammunition:''' <div id="mw-customcollapsible-grenade" class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">

|An outdated USCM Fragmentation Grenade. With decades of service in the USCM, the old M15 Fragmentation Grenade is slowly being replaced with the slightly safer M40 HEDP. It is set to detonate in 4 seconds. Slightly better radius than the M40 HEDP.<br>They're only available in by ordering '''Explosives crates''' from Cargo.
|-
|[[File:M40 HEDP.png|64px]]<br>'''M40 HEDP Grenade'''
|Exploding in a 5x5 radius, these Grenades also have the potential to damage nearby walls. Take care when using near structures leading to space or even near your own marines!<br>Both the '''Demolition Specialist''' and '''Heavy Grenadier Specialist''' has these grenades in their vendors at round start. More can be ordered in Cargo.
|-
|[[File:incingrenade.png|64px]]<br>'''M40 HIDP Incendiary Grenade'''
|Exploding in a 5x5 radius, incendiary grenades are a powerful area of denial weapon that can deal immense damage to a hostile target if its caught in the fire. Difference with this grenade is that its effects linger for a while making it useful in keeping Xenomorphs back.<br>'''Combat Engineers''' start with 2 of these in their vendors at round start.

|style="border: 2px solid black; padding: 5px;" |A reloadable, single shot rocket launcher. This weapon carries the most powerful and deadliest ordnance available to marine infantry in the form of either High Explosive, Armour Piercing, or White Phosphorus 84mm rockets. Where HE rockets are effective against tight groups of hostile targets, the AP rockets deal little actual splash damage but they deal immense damage to a single target. Unlike the grenade launcher SADAR ammo is more scarce, as well as the SADAR being more unwieldy to employ. Its not actually homing and its reusable but the user must stay still while reloading. Comes loaded with a HE rocket. It cannot be fired on the Almayer.<br>This is only available for '''Specialists''' using the '''Demolitionist Loadout'''.

Based on the original VP70 more than a century ago. Fires 9mm armour piercing pistol rounds and is capable of 3-round burst.<br>It is typically used by '''Specialists''' employing the usage of the '''Scout Loadout''', or the '''[[Corporate Liaison]]''', '''[[Executive Officer]]''' and the '''[[Pilot Officer]]'''  for self defence.

|style="border: 2px solid black; padding: 5px;" |The most complicated weapon available to a marine. Sadly, the Smartgun lacks any auto-tracking capabilities. It does, however, have an impressive 250 round ammo pool to draw from, an inbuilt infrared sensor allowing great visibility in low-light conditions, deals a good amount of damage per bullet with a high rate of fire, have burstfire capabilities, an automatic reloading system, and the coup de grace being that due to the gun's toggle-able complex targeting algorithms each bullet will not hit any fellow marine. This allows a smartgun operator to fire freely through a group of marines without fear of hitting them. The Smartgun requires a special harness to even lift and will automatically retract to the harness suit storage when the user is knocked down. Like the SADAR, the user must stand still while reloading.<br>Only '''[[Squad Smartgunner|Smartgunners]]''' and '''Weyland-Yutani PMC Heavy Gunners''' can use this weapon, it's also available inside the Commander's secure box inside the Command Armoury.

|style="border: 2px solid black; padding: 5px;" |Capable of shooting flames by lighting welding fuel or the custom napthal manufacturers mix to fuel it, this weapon is capable of dealing massive damage to Ailens and Humans alike who stand in its fires. Unlike bullets, this weapon doesn't stop on the first mob hit, it can pass through metal grilles and girders, and can light narrow hallways ablaze, potentially damaging multiple enemies. Beware of friendly fire and make sure you have a Medic equipped with Kelotane or Dermaline if you decide to go this route! Fire protection is definitely something to consider as it lessens the effects of the burning liquid but it'll still hurt. The longer the enemy stands in the flames, the more they are damaged and have a chance of being set alight. Furthermore, the flamer has a high chance of setting both humans and aliens on fire, forcing them to roll to put themselves out. Be careful when you are using this weapon around friendlies, lest you doom them to a fiery grave. In the right hands this is a powerful weapon. The tank can be refueled only with welder fuel after you use up all of the napalm mix which came straight from the manufacturing line.<br>Currently, two flamers can be found in a Squad Leader's personal vendor. More flamers can be ordered from cargo.
