Girls' Frontline is a 2022 sci-fi anime, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and animated by Asahi Production; it is based on the mobile game of the same name created by MICA Team.
The story takes place in the 2060s, following a series of wars and ecological disasters that have left much of the world in shambles; with the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and robotics technology (coupled with a noticeable lack of human manpower), androids called "Dolls" have been pressed into service in many areas, combat in particular - in this role, they are referred to as "Tactical Dolls", or "T-Dolls" for short. Taking place in eastern Europe, the plot centers around Griffin & Kryuger, a Doll-using PMC tasked with combatting the forces of Sangvis Ferri (another PMC whose AI went rogue). Uniquely, each of G&K's T-Dolls uses, is named after, and to some extent personifies a particular real-world firearm; accordingly, the 4 main characters are members of the AR Team.
The following weapons were used in the anime series Girls' Frontline:
What appears to be a Colt M1911 variant of some sort is seen briefly in the official trailer; while only the pistol itself is seen, it is presumably wielded by the T-Doll M1911.

The distortion effects are authentic; the trailer uses these effects during shot transitions, and this shot of the M1911 only appears briefly, so this is as good as it gets for now.
Nagant M1895
While the revolver itself isn't seen clearly, the T-Doll M1895 appears briefly in the trailer, implying that her Nagant M1895 revolver will likewise appear in the series.

Note that there are 3 of each unit present; this is presumably referencing the original game's "Dummy Link" system, where one Doll can control multiple identical bodies.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The Heckler & Koch MP5A3 makes no appearance whatsoever in the official trailer; however, the T-Doll MP5 makes a fleeting appearance (identified by her shoes), implying that her MP5 will likewise appear in the series.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingHeckler & Koch MP5A3 with Navy trigger group - 9x19mmFile:GFLTMP51.jpegMP5 opening fire at an approaching group of Dinergates; while the gun itself isn't visible, the rapid shower of pistol-caliber casings and unique shoe design confirm that the weapon in question (or, at least, the Doll in question) is an MP5.Error creating thumbnail: File missingFor reference, this is MP5's artwork from the original game. It's not often that we ID a gun by a character's shoe here, but then again, it's not often that the gun IS the character, either.
The senior member of the AR Team, M16A1, appears along with her Colt M16A1.

This was released before the one above, and seems to represent a slightly earlier iteration of the show's planned art style; notable changes since this image was released include the characters all being scaled somewhat smaller relative to their respective rifles, as well as various minor costume changes - these designs appear to more closely follow the original game's, while the later images take some liberties.Error creating thumbnail: File missingM16A1 with her...

FN FNC Paratrooper
The muzzle of an FN FNC Paratrooper is seen briefly in the trailer; while its wielder isn't shown, it is presumably carried by the T-Doll FNC.

Heckler & Koch G36
Alongside the FNC above, the business end of a Heckler & Koch G36 appears in the trailer, presumably wielded by the T-Doll G36.
The AR Team's designated wild card/loose cannon M4 SOPMOD II appears in the anime with her M4A1 SOPMOD Block II carbine.

Spike's Tactical 10th Anniversary AR-15
The final member of the AR Team, ST AR-15, is armed with her customized, auto-converted Spike's Tactical 10th Anniversary AR-15. She uses it with our with no suppressor, depending on the field conditions.

Like M4A1, she is left-handed in both the show and the original game; unlike the original game, however, she no longer has "SPR" written on her one sock, and her knife is more sensibly stored in a sheath instead of being inexplicably attached to her underwear.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAR-15 aims the suppressed ST AR-15 in the OP sequence, "BAD CANDY".Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe suppressed ST AR-15 fired at incoming Vespids during a stand off.File:GFLTSTAR3.jpegAnother frame from the same sequence.
Rifles
Gewehr 43
The T-Doll G43 uses the Gewehr 43. At one point in "THE SEED", a Schiessbecher is attached onto the barrel in order to fire a rifle grenade.
M4 SOPMOD II's M4A1 SOPMOD Block II is seen fitted with what appears to be an M203A1 Grenade Launcher.

Grenades
M18 smoke grenade
The M18 smoke grenade is erroneously depicted as an offensive grenade in "THE SEED".
