Atomic Blonde is a 2017 American spy thriller set in 1989 Berlin just prior to the collapse of the Wall and starring Charlize Theron as Lorraine Broughton, an MI6 operative sent to retrieve a list of agents. Based on the graphic novel The Coldest City, the film was directed by David Leitch, the former stunt performer and co-director of John Wick. The cast includes James McAvoy, Sofia Boutella, John Goodman, and Toby Jones.
The following weapons were used in the film Atomic Blonde:
Handguns
Stechkin APS
A Stechkin APS is used by Yuri Bakhtin (Jóhannes Jóhannesson) to kill James Gascoigne (Sam Hargrave), setting the plot into motion. Oddly, characters claim that a Soviet 7.62mm round was recovered from the body, despite the APS being chambered in the 9x18mm Makarov.
The business end of the Stechkin APS.
Browning Hi-Power
Lorraine Broughton (Charlize Theron) owns a Browning Hi-Power that is very briefly seen as she prepares herself to go to the meeting with their superiors. Judging from the external extractor and old-style ring hammer, it appears to be a highly desirable 1960s "T" Series Browning Hi-Power.
Makarov PM
The Makarov PM, presumably both East German and Russian models, is used by various characters, including Lorraine (Charlize Theron), KGB agents, and East German Volkspolizei. Several suppressed Makarov pistols are seen in the climax.
She greeted Percival with her just acquired Makarov after a turbulent car ride.
Tokarev TT-33
KGB agents and Lorraine (Charlize Theron) both use suppressed Tokarev TT-33 pistols.
SIG-Sauer P226
West-German police officers are armed with SIG-Sauer P226. Lorraine (Charlize Theron) also uses a P226 several times, most notably to kill "Satchel".
Manurhin MR-73
Delphine Lasalle (Sofia Boutella) carries a snub-nose revolver that appears to be a Manurhin MR-73 Defense.
The Manurhin MR-73 Defense is pointed at Delphine Lasalle (Sofia Boutella).
CZ 75
Lorraine (Charlize Theron) is seen using a CZ 75 "Pre-B" taken from a KGB agent during the apartment fight.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
A British policeman carries a Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine gun with a Navy trigger group. The Navy trigger group is not an anachronism as the first Navy-style trigger groups were made in 1982.
Rifles
AKMS
East German Grenztruppen border guards are seen with AK rifles with folding stocks, that appear to be AKMS rifles.
SVD Dragunov
A KGB sniper (Daniel Hargrave) prepares a suppressed SVD Dragunov with black or black-painted furniture in the attempted assassination of Spyglass (Eddie Marsan).
M16A2
U.S. Army soldiers carry M16A2 assault rifles.
Machine Guns
DShKM
An East-German UAZ-469 jeep is seen with a top-mounted DShK heavy machine gun at the border crossing.
