Pistols- This goes to the PSS for a few reasons. It is as quiet as a gun can be (at the time to my knowledge) and it seems to fire a large round. Edge- Stasi

SMG's- The Scorpion has always been a personal favorite of mine, but this is barely even. The Scorpion has 5 less rounds, but a larger round and faster rate of fire. The Glauberyt on the other hand has more rounds and a large effective range. They aren't sniping with them, but I still say even. Edge- Even

Assualt Rifles- This is both tough and straightforward for me. I love AK rifles in almost all forms, from the AK-47U to Chinese copies to Romanian copies and many more. Both rifles ranges are even in range ( both having efective ranges of 300 meters) but the AK-47 is the original and while the Kbkg can fire grenades, it just can't beat the original. Edge- Stasi

Melee- I have many times considered both of these knives overrated, but I feel the Ballistic Knife is superior. While the Ka-Bar is larger and likely better up close, the ballistic knife is a surprise range weapon and who knows how many knives a single person could carry? It's not like the Stasi are particuraly pleasent in combat and operations. Edge- Stasi

Grenades- I have never cared for explosives, but I do like the RGD-5. The F1, while being launched from a rifle, has a blast radius of about 30 m while the RGD-5 has a range of 25 m. So it is pretty obvious who wins here. Edge- Służba Bezpieczeństwa

Overall- I have to say Stasi take this. Most of their weapons a pretty much even, but what helps the Stasi take this is that they have a superior assualt rifle. The pistol and melee combined helps add inches to the Stasi's narrow victory. The Stasi operated from 1950 to 1990 while the Sluzba operated from 1956 to 1990, so a narrow edge in operational experience to the Stasi. Both are brutal, but the Stasi seem more determend so that is another edge.

Overall- Stasi
