5''Locked 'N Loaded'' (also known as ''Gun Hard'' in Japan) is a 1994 LightGunGame by Creator/DataEast.

7The game plays very similar to other titles like ''VideoGame/LethalEnforcers1'', ''VideoGame/UnderFire'', ''VideoGame/MaximumForce'', and ''VideoGame/TargetTerror''. You play a counter-terrorist agent on six missions: The Science Lab, in which the player must infiltrate and dismantle a drug cartel, Airport, where the player must stop a hijack, Warehouse, which involves the player destroying the terrorists' weapons, Office Building, where the player stops terrorists from stealing defense secrets in a military research lab, Smuggler's Lair, where the player must suppress a gun smuggling ring, and the Drug Lord's Mansion, in which the player must infiltrate the titular hideout to eliminate the drug lord and rescue the hostages. Your objective will be to kill the terrorists and avoid the hostages, all while collecting more ammo and weapons along the way. At the end of each mission, a boss must be defeated in order to clear the stage.

12!!This game provides examples of:
13
14* BattleshipRaid: The Mission 5 boss consists of you attacking various parts of a Black Hawk helicopter.
15* BigNo: Happens if you shoot a hostage or a police officer.
16* CarFu: The FinalBoss attempts to run you down in his car when he's on his last legs.
17* ChaseScene: The end of Mission 1 involves a boat chase while the second part of Mission 5 involves a car chase.
18* ContinuingIsPainful: Using a continue will wipe out your score.
19* DarkActionGirl: Several terrorists are female.
20* ElevatorActionSequence: The third part of Mission 4 has you in an elevator with the elevator occasionally stopping in some rooms to engage the terrorists.
21* FlunkyBoss: The FinalBoss will send some backup on occasion.
22* HockeyMaskAndChainsaw: The Mission 2 boss wears a [[Franchise/FridayThe13th Jason Voorhees-esque]] mask, but is more of a knife-user than a chainsaw wielder.
23* KillItWithFire: Enemies shot with fire bullets will set them ablaze.
24* MoreDakka: The Burst Shot and Full Auto.
25* PoliceAreUseless: Like ''VideoGame/LethalEnforcers1'', all the cops will do is get in the way, and their shots won't do shit. Even worse is that sometimes they ''[[TooDumbToLive stop to give you a thumbs up in the middle of a shootout]]''.
26* PreAssKickingOneLiner: The Mission 2 boss has this to say before attacking you:
27-->''"It's curtains for you!"''
28* SpiritualSuccessor: The game borrows a lot from ''VideoGame/LethalEnforcers1''.
29* WhatTheHellPlayer: Shooting a police officer will cause him to say, "Hey! I'm on your side!"
