Behind the scenes[]
- "Milsurp" is short for "military surplus" and is a term used for supplies used by the military, usually guns and ammunition, that are sold or disposed of by the military when no longer needed. Sometimes milsurp is collected by gun collectors and survivalists.
- The front cover of the magazine depicts numerous Thompson submachine guns, a weapon that isn't available in the base game. It does appear in Honest Hearts in its military form as the .45 Auto SMG.[1]
