So I was digging through my phone's gallery trying to free up some space and I came across a few pictures that I had taken while traveling with my family. Turns out that a lot of them seem to be what a few items were based off of, at least from what I see of it
Market Gardener
For some reason this reminded me of the quake rocket launcher
Caber and Lugermorph (and maybe the pocket pistol but I couldn't get a good enough angle on all of them since the museum where I saw these was crowded that day)
Also there is what looks like one of the csgo knives idk the name of it though
All 3 pictures in 1 post
Figured I'd share these since they've been just sitting on my phone taking up space. Enjoy!!

That's because many tf2 weapons are just cartoonized versions of real weapons. And al csgo knives are based off of real knives

Yep I recognize the layouts of the guns. Fun place there. Though the submarine experience they had a few years back (may still have it) was a little off.

For those of you who don't know, most of the TF2 weapons which aren't fantasy weapons are based on a specific historical weapon, sometimes interwoven with a pun. Operation Market Garden was a (somewhat failed) attempt during WW2 to occupy a bunch of strategic locations like bridges, mostly in the Netherlands, in order to largely set up an allied victory before winter would set in. It involved a before unseen number of airborne forces. The thing itself is modelled after an M1943 entrenching tool, standard issue for American airborne forces.
The Ullapool Caber is modelled after an M24 Stielhand and the name is a reference to Ullapool, a city in the north-west of Scotland, and a caber, which is a huge pole that's tossed(no pun intended) in a traditional Scottish sports event.
And one more example, the Black Box is modelled after the M202 FLASH. "Black box" is also a term for an object of which the effects are commonly known, but the inner workings of which are known only to one specific group or person.

There's a shield that the Splendid Screen was definitely based off of in the Pitt Rivers museum in Oxford along with a few other weapons that deffo remind me of stuff ingame on the top floor (I think there's some revolvers that the spy ones are based off of). Don't have any pictures though.

Did you know? Spiderman's wall-climbing abilities are based on real spiders, who can also climb walls.
