My predictions:

Melee: The Ka-Bar is the true knife here designed purely for combat. If you look closely its rubber grip gives it the edge in control.

edge: IRA

Pistols: The browning carries more rounds and is chambered in a bigger round. Its longer barrel allows it to fire at a slightly longer ranger and accuracy.

edge: IRA

Smg: The classic MP5 gets the edge for its rate of fire.

edge: IRA

Rifle: Well the Ak-74 fires the bigger round and is more reliable in rough environment, but since this is an urban combat scenario, its well-known reliability to be used in jungle warfare is of no use. The AR fires faster, has the longer range and is easier to control in full auto.

edge: IRA

Snipers: I'm siding with the Barett. Although it is heavier, it makes up for its compensator in the barrel that lowers recoil, range, power and accuracy. The Dragunov is a classic, but the Barett is more high-tech.

edge: IRA

Explosives: Although Battle games has a point that the rgd is designed as an actual grenade, I'm still giving the edge to the nail bomb. Even though it doesn't have the bigger boom it does make up for its more deadlier and well to scatter shrapnels, as well as its ability to be detonated remotely thus giving the abiity to set up traps.

edge: IRA

Others: The RPG has the longer range, is lighter, and more killing potential.

edge: Russian Mafia

Winner: IRA wins this one because they've been in an actual war than the Russian mafia's occasional gang wars. The IRA has been more successful with their terrorism and guerilla warfare, and is more experienced in battles and tactics. They're also a bigger pain in the ass.
