It is used to fire non-lethal rounds at Aoi, and appears to be of the folding stock variety with the stock removed. It is not a [[Milkor MGL]] as previously suggested, due to the length of the chambers, the design of the trigger guard and lower frame, and the absence of the release lever on the front of the chambers. | |||

Cat Planet Cuties is an anime television series based on a series of light novels written by Okina Kamino. Originally released in Japan under the title Asobi_ni_ikuyo! (translated as Let's go play!) with the English title Asobi ni Ikuyo: Bombshells from the Sky, when licensed for US distribution by Funimation it was retitled Cat Planet Cuties.
The following weapons were used in the anime series Cat Planet Cuties:
Pistols
M1911A1
The ship captain seen at the start of episode 1 carries a M1911A1, and Yuichi can be seen carrying one at various times.

Beretta 93R
A Beretta 93R is detailed on a poster in Minami's house. Aoi also takes a Beretta 93R when she goes to live at Kio's place later giving it to Manami who then on uses it as her preferred sidearm. The shape of the compensator holes suggests that a KSC M93R was used for reference when the series was animated.
