=Pistols=
==Seburo M5==
As with ''Stand Alone Complex'', Section 9's standard sidearm is the fictitious Seburo M5, a compact semiautomatic SA/DA concealed-carry handgun that uses a locked-breech operating via a rotating barrel (a system similar to the [[Beretta Cougar]]). It's chambered for 5.45x18mm rounds, and feeds from a double-stack magazine with a total capacity of 19+1 rounds. 

However, a lawyer in episode 10 claims that the M5 holds 21 5.7mm rounds, conflicting with the official specs on the M5 (of course there's always the possibility that the lawyer was just mistaken the specs with those of the [[FN Five-seveN]].)

==FN Browning BDA M-7==
Batou still carries his M-7 from ''Stand Alone Complex''. The M-7 is a fictional [[Browning BDA|FN Browning BDA]] variant chambered for .45ACP. The M-7 is intended to be a future BDA variant (similar to [[Ghost in the Shell#Jericho 941|Batou's Jericho 942]] in the original ''Ghost in the Shell'' film). The most notable differences between the M-7 and the BDA is the M-7's shortened slide and barrel and the horned hammer.

==Desert Eagle==
Gino, the immigrant Helicopter pilot who is the focus of episode 2, periodically carries and dreams about his nickel-plated, .44 caliber [[Desert Eagle#Desert Eagle Mark VII|Desert Eagle MK VIII]], which has been customized with a ported muzzle and enlarged hammer spur. On a side note, both the character Gino as well as the entire episode are a homage to ''[[Taxi Driver]]''.

==.22 Pocket Pistol==
The .22 caliber pocket pistol used by Marshall MacLachlan in ''Stand Alone Complex'' makes a return in episode 2 in Gino's gun collection. The design is fictitious, but draws heavily from the [[Beretta 3032 Tomcat]].

=Revolvers=

==Mateba 2008M==
Togusa still carries his Mateba 2008M from ''Stand Alone Complex''. The 2008M is a fictional variant of the [[Mateba Autorevolver]], and features the frame design of a Mateba Model 6 Unica and the barrel assembly of the [[Mateba 2006M]]. The Mateba is a semiautomatic revolver with uses the recoil of firing to revolve the cylinder and cock the hammer. Togusa's weapon is chambered in .357 Magnum (Kusanagi refers to it as a 9mm, which is technically correct as the bullet diameter on a .357 is 9 millimeters). In a memorable scene in episode 10, a lawyer is seen presenting another Mateba as evidence. Save for the synthetic grips the Mateba used in the trial is identical to Togusa's. Togusa can also be seen firing the Mateba during the opening credits sequence.

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIG2008M2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Togusa reloads his Mateba with a speed-loader.  Note that in this scene, the cylinder lacks recessed chambers, as the rims of the cartridges visibly "stick out" past the back of the cylinder.  But in scenes where the gun is seen from the side, the back of the cylinder is flush with the frame, and no rims are visible, which is only possible if the gun has recessed chambers.  The real Mateba 6 Unica has recessed chambers, while the real Mateba 2006M does not.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 37 Airweight==
In episode 24, it is revealed that Aramaki carries a nickel [[Smith & Wesson Model 37 Airweight]] in an ankle holster, which he gives to Togusa after his weapon is confiscated.

=Submachine Guns=
==Sa vz. 61 Skorpion==
Several of the "Individual Eleven" who infiltrate the Chinese embassy in the first episode are armed with [[Sa vz. 61 Skorpion]]s. During the Dejima uprising, several refugees are seen with vz. 61s as well.

==Police Bullpup Submachine Gun==
The fictional submachine gun used by the Metropolitan Police SWAT team in ''Stand Alone Complex'' is carried over into ''2nd Gig''. It bears a striking aesthetic resemblance to the [[Enfield L85 rifle series]], but differs in almost every detail upon closer examination (the  MP5 style iron sight, for example). Chambered with 9x19mm rounds. 

Pazu is seen with the weapon in the OP sequence, "Rise".

=Assault Rifles=
==Seburo C26A==
As with ''Stand Alone Complex'', the primary weapon for Section 9 operatives is the fictional Seburo C26A assault rifle. The C26A uses a crooked 50 round box magazine that feeds 5.45x45mm rounds in a bullpup pattern, entering the gun at 45 degrees from the bore and slanting to lie parallel to the barrel, locking into the front grip. Fired cartridge cases eject into a permanently mounted brass catcher mounted on top of the gun. Its ergonomics are similar to the [[FN F2000]], with the trigger protected by a large loop that serves as a grip for the off hand. It is occasionally seen with a two-stage silencer attachment. ''2nd GIG'' also grants a look at a previously unseen feature of the C26A; a laser sight built into the body just above the muzzle.

===Seburo C30===
The Seburo C30, a variant of the C26A designed for overtly offensive missions, makes a return, this time in the hands of the Section 4 operators sent to apprehend the Section 9 members in Dejima. The C30 is built around a C26A receiver and features an added optical sight as well as a jacket with a brass catcher. Unlike the C30s seen in ''Stand Alone Complex'', these lack a grenade launcher or an extended barrel.

==Conglomeration Rifle==
The soldiers in the Ground Self Defense Army (GSDA) or JGSDF (according to Japanese dialog) are seen using this fictional rifle. This weapon draws several features from other weapons, primarily the [[Howa Type 89]] and [[M16 rifle series]].

==Futurized Type 89-F with M203==
Members of the JGSDF are shown using a futurized [[Howa Type 89|Howa Type 89-F]] rifles outfitted with underbarrel [[M203 grenade launcher|M203 grenade launchers]]. The Type 89s all have barrels and handguards that are shorter than current variants, and the number of air vents on the handguard has been reduced to two on each side.  In addition to these modifications, each rifle is outfitted with an electronic sight interface designed to connect directly to the soldier's cyberbrain.

==Futurized Colt Model 933 with M203==
During the 2020 Mexican War flashback in episode 14, all of the American Empire soldiers in Kusanagi's multinational UN peacekeeper squad carry futurized [[M16 rifle series#Colt Model 933|Colt Model 933]] rifles (distinguishable by their 11.5 inch barrels). Each rifle is outfitted with a [[M203 grenade launcher]] as well as a futuristic stock and handguard. As with the Japanese Type 89-Fs, each rifle is also equipped with a sight system designed to interface with the user's cyberbrain, implying that American Empire troops also undergo cyborg conversions before deployment.

==Futurized L85A2 with M203==
The British troops in Kusanagi's squad in episode 14's flashback to Mexico all carry [[Enfield L85 rifle series#L85A2|Enfield L85A2]] rifles that have undergone similar transformations to the previously described Type 89-F and Colt Model 933 rifles. Each L85 is given a futuristic handguard and barrel assembly, is outfitted with a [[M203 grenade launcher]], and is equipped with a cyberbrain-interface targeting system, suggesting that all of the British troops have undergone full cyborg conversions.

=Sniper Rifles=
==Blaser R93 LRS2==
During the flashback story in episode 14, Saito's rifle during the 2020 Mexico engagement is a [[Blaser 93 sniper rifle|Blaser R93 LRS2]]. It is notable that he alone in this episode uses an "old-fashioned" purely optical sighting system on his rifle. He also appears to have used tape to affix a Harris bipod to the front of the stock.

==Walther WA 2000==
During the flashback to the 2020 engagement in Mexico, Kusanagi carries a [[Walther WA 2000]] with black polymer furniture and an extended magazine. Kusanagi, in contrast to Saito, has had the optical sight replaced by a purely cybernetic sight that interfaces directly with her cyberbrain via the QRS port on her neck.

==Seburo Sniper Rifle==
Saito's preferred bolt-action .50-caliber rifle from ''Stand Alone Complex'' makes a return for ''2nd Gig''.

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGSaitoSniper1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Saito with his sniper rifle.]]

==Anti-Armor Sniper Rifle==
Saito uses this massive rifle to disable a runaway attack helicopter in episode 4.

==Seburo Anti-Tank Rifle==
First seen in the second episode of ''Stand Alone Complex'', Saito's 20mm anti-materiel rifle makes a reappearance in during the flashback to the 2020 Mexican War. This rifle is fictitious, but draws upon several real-world designs, primarily the [[Mechem NTW-20]] and the [[Lahti L-39]]. Saito loads it with a single round and uses a remote trigger mechanism to blow up a car and cause a diversion so that he can attack from another angle.

==Norinco Type 84S Target Rifle==
A Dejima refugee on the Dejima Bridge barricade is seen using a sniper rifle built from a Kalashnikov rifle. Based on the long barrel and the ammunition box behind him labeled "5.56 NATO", it is likely that this rifle is a [[AK-47#Norinco Type 84S|Norinco Type 84S Target Rifle]].
[[‎Image:NorincoType84STarget.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Norinco Type 84S "Target" Rifle - 5.56x45mm.]]

=Machine Guns=
==M61 Vulcan==
The  Jigabachi attack helicopters are armed with [[M61 Vulcan]] cannons. The gun is mounted on a pod at the rear of the aircraft that swings down like a wasps' stinger, hence the name "Jigabachi" (the Japanese name for the Sand Wasp).
[[Image:M61vulcan.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M61 Vulcan 20mm]]

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGM1341.jpg|thumb|none|500px|A Jigabachi helicopter opens up with its Vulcan.]]

==Phalanx CIWS==
In episode 24, several [[M61 Vulcan#General Dynamics / Raytheon Phalanx Close-In Weapon System|Phalanx CIWS]] installations can be seen on a helicopter carrier operating off the coast of Dejima, particularly when Rangers from Section 4 are deployed.

[[Image:Phalanx.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Phalanx CIWS 20mm]]

==Tachikoma Claw Machine Gun==
The Tachikoma's claws are equipped with built-in machine gun when they encounter enemies in close quarters.

[[File:GITS SAC 2G OP 04.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A Tachikoma engages a JGSDF Type 1 Arm Suit in one of Niihama's many expressways in the OP sequence, "Rise".]]

==Tachikoma's Shortened M134 Minigun==
The Tachikoma's ''extremely'' [[Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex#Short-Barreled M134 Minigun|short-barreled M134]] from ''Stand Alone Complex'' makes a brief return during several of the ''Tachikomatic Days'' skits that follow every episode when one of the Tachikomas proposes a second version of its "Amphibious Tachikoma" design. The Tachikoma has attached the Minigun to the back of the proposed Tachikoma's head so that it faces the think-tank's pod, and offers up a rather unusual reason why.
[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGTachikmaM1341.jpg|thumb|none|500px|''"It's called the Mark II, so of course it's twice as useless!"'']]

==Power-Suit Machine Gun==
The MSDF Type 303 power suits from ''Stand Alone Complex'' return for the sequel, an bring their appropriately-sized machine gun / grenade launcher combination weapons with them.
[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGLandMate1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|A machine-gun toting Type 303 makes a cameo during the ''Tachikomatic Days'' special at the end of episode 5.]]

==Futurized M60==
A young Batou is shown during the Mexico 2020 flashback using a [[M60]] machine gun. Like the Type 89-F, Colt Model 933, and L85, this modern weapon has been given a futuristic look to fit with the setting, although this weapon's modifications appear to be limited to the handguard. 
[[Image:M60.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M60 machine gun]]
[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGM601.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Saito watches the M60-toting Batou through a scope. Note that the M60's stock and receiver are the same as those currently being produced.]]
[[Image:Sac2m60.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Batou with his M60. Note both the futuristic handguard and the signature M60 front sight and bipod.]]

==General Dynamics GAU-19/A==
The JGSDA Arm Suits in episode 20 are equipped with [[General Dynamics GAU-19/A|GAU-19]] rotary guns. The forward barrel brace is circular as opposed to the GAU-19's typical triangular brace. An even shorter GAU-19 is seen mounted inside the claws of the HAW-206 tanks used by the JGSDA.

==Futurized Type 98 Anti Aircraft Cannon==
The fishing trawlers used by the Dejima refugees are often equipped with an anti-aircraft battery consisting of a shield and two Type 98 20mm anti-aircraft cannons with futuristic barrel shrouds.

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGT991.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Type 98 in storage.]]

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGT994.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The Type 98 prior to being fired.]]

=Grenade Launchers=

==Tachikoma Grenade Launcher==
The Tachikomas have a grenade launcher in their snout region.

[[File:GITS SAC 2G OP 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The Tachikomas fire their grenade launchers at the incoming JGSDF Type 1 Arm Suit in one of Niihama's many expressways in the OP sequence, "Rise".]]

=Rocket Launchers=

==FGM-148 Javelin==
Several of the American soldiers seen in the 2020 Mexican War flashback carry [[FGM-148 Javelin]] missile launchers. These launchers have been slightly altered from their real-world counterparts, suggesting that they too are intended to be future variants.

[[Image:Javalin.jpg|thumb|none|400px|FGM-148 Javelin - 127mm]]

[[Image:GITSSC2NDGIGJavelin2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Ishikawa aiming the Javelin at Saito's hideout.]]

==FIM-92A Stinger==
Dejima Refugees use several [[FIM-92A Stinger]] missiles simultaneously to shoot down the JSDF AWACS plane above the island that is jamming communications. The use of several missiles at once overwhelms the anti-missile countermeasures, and the depiction of the explosion is accurate in that the warhead explodes short of the target, destroying it with projected shrapnel from the missile's HE-Frag warhead.

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGStinger2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|A refugee prepares to fire the Stinger.]]

==M141 SMAW-D==
The weapon dealers in episode 7 also possess at least one [[Mk 153 SMAW#M141 SMAW-D|M141 SMAW-D]].

[[Image:Image004.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M141 SMAW-D launcher and HEDP rocket 83mm]]
[[Image:Wyrzutniarakiet.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Holding the SMAW-D.]]

==Unidentified Rocket Launchers==
A handful of the Dejima refugees are carrying unidentified anti-tank RPG launchers. The warheads used strongly resemble those of the  the [[Panzerfaust 3]] and the rear port resembles that of an [[RPG-7]].

[[Image:GITSSAC2NDGIGRL1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|A refugee inspects the rocket launcher.]]

=Other Weapons=

==Prosthetic Shotguns==
The terrorist "Angel's Feathers" has several shotguns built into his arm that all fire simultaneously.
