Hunter X Hunter (pronounced "Hunter Hunter", without the "X") is a 2011 anime series produced by Madhouse, based on Yoshihiro Togashi's famous manga series of the same name. Set in a fictional world (whose map looks conspicuously like the real world's rearranged), the story centers around Gon Freeccss, a 12-year-old boy who seeks to join the exclusive, prestigious Hunter Association (a group composed of exceptionally capable individuals in a variety of fields, ranging from exploration to bounty hunting to cooking), in an effort to find his absent father, a noted member of the group. Soon after he begins, he is joined by 3 other aspiring hunters - Killua Zoldyck (another 12-year-old boy, and also an accomplished hitman-for-hire), Kurapika Kurta (a 17-year-old seeking to avenge the murder of his family), and Leorio Paradinight (a 19-year-old who primarily wants access to the organization's funding, so he can go to medical school).
The following weapons were used in the anime series Hunter X Hunter (2011):

Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 36
What appear to be Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolvers (or possibly another similar S&W model) are used by the police officers that attempt to arrest Basho in Episode 39 ("Wish x And x Promise").
Steyr GB
What appear to be Steyr GB pistols are used by some of the Eleven Black Children, Shachmono Tocino's Nen-based soldiers; they are only used during the Children's first (i.e. planned) appearance, presumably because their armaments are separate from them, and thus need to be handed out to them in advance.
Webley Mark VI
A nickel-plated Webley Mark VI is Pakunoda's signature weapon, seen first during the 2nd OP sequence, "Departure! -second version-". For all its association with the character, she only actually uses it twice; rather than conventional ammunition, it is used exclusively to fire Nen-based "Memory Bomb" rounds, which contain a fixed set of information that is instantly conveyed to anyone shot in the head with them.
Rifles
Unknown Sniper Rifle
The aptly-named character Siper uses a somewhat nondescript sniper rifle; based on its design, it is presumably semi-automatic, though it can't be said for sure since, despite practically never being seen without it, Siper never actually fires the rifle on-screen.
