Give me all the guns!

(Un)necessary exposition.

Let's say you want to take a little break from the fierce battles raging across the various scenarios in Day of Infamy (i.e. murdering waves of bots, 'cuz let's be honest, that's the only thing left to shoot in this game). Thus you load up the ever so peaceful shooting range in the picturesque English countryside (okay, maybe not so picturesque what with all the dead cows around).

There you find a sizeable inventory of Allied firearms you know and love, but then you stop for a second and think to yourself: "Hey, where's all the German guns?" Or maybe you're so lazy that you can't be bothered to walk a few measly meters for your shiny new gun. Fret not then as through the magic of a cvar called "dumpentityfactories" you can invoke a Source console command equivalent of "tell me everything you know, right now!" which will spit out a mountain of text out of which only a portion will be of any use at the shooting range. The good guy that I am I stripped away all the unnecessary bits and bobs for you to gift yourself any piece of WW2 weaponry you could ever dream of (within the game's realm of possibilities, that is).

The actual "How do I?"

First order of business, turn them darn cheats on by bringing up the console "sv_cheats 1", you swindler.
Now what you want to do is to write "give_weapon <weapon name from the list below>" and voilà a gun magically materializes in your hands.
While you're at it, save yourself the trouble of walking to resupply with the lovely "give_ammo <amount of ammo (I use 50)>". Needless to say, you leave out the quotation marks, there's a pro tip for ya.
To further reinforce your laziness I'll give you one last certified Papa Pro Tip™. You can bind the give ammo cvar to a key on your nice click-clacky keyboard (your coworkers hate you for that, by the way) with "bind <key> "give_ammo 50" ". Now you might think that I lied in the previous point by saying don't use quotation marks but here you actually do need to use them but only wrapping "give_ammo 50" with them.

All the GUNS!
