  • The M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (AKA BAR, or B.A.R.) is an American Light Machine Gun featured in all Medal of Honor games set in World War II. It is automatic and powerful, but fires relatively slowly, and from a twenty-round box magazine. List of appearances in Medal of Honor games the BAR makes:

  • The Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) was a family of American automatic rifles (or machine rifles) and light machine guns used by the United States and numerous other countries during the 20th century. The primary variant of the BAR series was the M1918, chambered for the .30-06 Springfield rifle cartridge and designed by John Browning in 1917 for the U.S. Expeditionary Corps in Europe as a replacement for the French-made Chauchat and M1909 Benet-Mercie machine guns.
  • It was designed in 1917 by the weapons designer John Browning, primarily as a replacement for, and improvement on, the French-made Chauchat and Hotchkiss M1909. The BAR was originally intended as a light automatic rifle, but spent much of its career in various guises used as in the light machine gun role with a bipod. The original version was and remains the lightest service machine gun to fire the .30-06 Springfield cartridge, though the limited capacity of its standard 20-round magazine tended to hamper its utility as a light machine gun. This gun was also used widely by gangsters from the 1920's and 1930's. Though not as publicized and mythologized as the Tommy gun, it was a far deadlier weapon because of its high-powered .30-06 rifle cartridge, especially against vehicles and body armo
  • The Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) is an automatic rifle that saw service from World War I to the 1970's. It uses the .30-06 rifle cartridge, the same as the M1 Garand. It has three firing modes: high full auto (650 rpm), slow full auto (450 rpm), and semi-automatic. It would be wise to use the semi-auto firing mode, so as not to waste ammunition. The .30-06 rifle cartridge should be quite easy to find in most gun stores in the United States, another good thing, this particular round has enough stopping power to punch through any zombie's head.

  • The Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) was a family of American automatic rifles (or machine rifles) and light machine guns used by the United States and numerous other countries during the 20th century. The primary variant of the BAR series was the M1918, chambered for the .30-06 Springfield rifle cartridge and designed by John Browning in 1917 for the U.S. Expeditionary Corps in Europe as a replacement for the French-made Chauchat and M1909 Benet-Mercie machine guns. The BAR was designed to be carried by advancing infantrymen, slung over the shoulder and fired from the hip, a concept called "walking fire"—thought to be necessary for the individual soldier during trench warfare. However in practice, it was most often used as a light machine gun and fired from a bipod (introduced in later models). The original M1918 version was and remains the lightest machine gun to fire the .30-06 Springfield cartridge, though the limited capacity of its standard 20-round magazine tended to hamper its utility in that role.
