Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka (Japanese: 魔法少女特殊戦あすか Hepburn: Mahō Shōjo Tokushusen Asuka) is a Japanese magical girl/military seinen manga series written by Makoto Fukami and illustrated by Seigo Tokiya. Naoya Tamura is the series' military advisor. It began publication in June 2015 in the manga magazine Monthly Big Gangan, published by Square Enix, and has five tankōbon volumes slated for North America Release as of January 2018. The series is published in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment. An anime television series adaptation by Liden Films began airing on January 12, 2019; the anime series is licensed in North America under Crunchyroll-Funimation partnership.
The following weapons were used in the anime series Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka:
Pistols
MP-443 Grach
GRU Operative Constantince Asimov points what appears to be an MP-443 "Grach" on Iizuka Yoshiaki in the battlefield outside Mt. Eto. This would make sense as the MP-443 is the standard service pistol of the Russian military and law enforcement.
Assault Rifles
Howa Type 89
Iizuka Yoshiaki, while a member of the JGSDF's contingent at Mt. Eto, is armed with the Howa Type 89 Assault Rifle. He appears to be using 20 round magazines.
AKM
The terrorists in the first episode are all using AKMs with the rescued terrorist leader using one with an underslung GP-25 grenade launcher. They work well against disabled Riot Police and regular TMPD officers and bystanders. But not against a magical girl.
HK416
Magical Girl Just Cause Mia (Mia Cyrus) seems to be using an HK416 with a 10.4in barrel that is either a magical artifact or fitted to be able to fire magic bullets.
Sniper Rifles
GRU Operative Constantince Asimov was initially armed with an OSV-96 during the final battle against the King Disas at Mt. Eto.
Machine Guns
Minigun
The terrorists seem to have an uparmored Dodge Nitro with a minigun on a pop-out roof mount.
RPK
One of the magical girls is holding what is supposedly a magically modified RPK with 40 round magazine.
Grenade Launchers
The terrorist leader is given an AKM with a GP-25 Grenade Launcher attached.
Unidentifiable/Vague Guns
Unidentified M1911 Variant
In the ending (opening?) sequence, Asuka is seen holding what appears to be a compact or officer's model of the M1911 with skeletonized trigger, angled slide serrations, and enlarged beavertail.
Possible MP-5
The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Riot Police escorting the terrorist leader and their vaguely recognizable firearms. Possible they are MP-5's as the TMPD's SWAT teams are armed with such weapons.
Revolver
The issue revolver of the regular TMPD officers aren't as well detailed.
