Template:MoreEffort The following guns were used in the anime series Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex:
PLEASE NOTE: Although the title is commonly given a colon, the correct title of this series is "Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex", without a colon. Please correct any links that appear incorrectly.
Handguns
Seburo M5
One of the trademark weapons for the series is the fictitious Seburo M5, a compact semiautomatic SA/DA concealed-carry handgun (with a total barrel length of 3.5 inches) that uses a locked-breech operating via a rotating barrel (a system similar to the Beretta Cougar). It is chambered for 5.45x18mm round, and feeds from a double-stack magazine with a total capacity of 19+1 rounds. The M5 is the standard sidearm for Section 9 operatives, and is also seen in the hands of various other law enforcement agencies.
IMI Desert Eagle
The terrorist that Kusanagi confronts at the beginning of the pilot episode attempts to use a stainless steel IMI Desert Eagle.
Mateba 2008M
Togusa carries a fictional M2008 throughout the series, which quite closely resembles the real Mateba model 6 Unica revolver, a semiautomatic revolver with uses the recoil of firing to revolve the cylinder and cock the hammer. The most visible difference from the Unica-6 is the ventilated rib, which the 2006M lacks, although the grip is also different. Togusa's weapon is chambered in .357 Magnum (Kusanagi refers to it as a 9mm, which is technically correct as the bullet diameter on a .357 is 9 millimeters). He also see to only load 5 round so it easier to load and shoot a tracking round at get away cars.
Browning HP DAO
Batou carries and uses a fictional FN/Browning HP DAO variant in .45ACP throughout the series. The exact make and model is never specified, but it has the characteristic recurved trigger guard of the DAO series, although it has unique grips unlike any existing model. However, being .45ACP calibre, it is unlikely to be intended to be an original FN or Browning. It also appears to use a double-stack magazine, unlike current .45 Hi-Powers such as the ones made by FEG.
.22 Pocket Pistol
In episode 3, Marshall MacLachlan produces a stainless steel, .22 caliber pocket pistol. The design is fictitious, but draws heavily from the Beretta 3032 Tomcat.
Smith & Wesson model 37 Airweight
The Laughing Man uses a S&W 37 in his abduction of Ernest Serano on live TV in episode 4.
Walther PPK
A silenced Walther PPK of unknown caliber is used by parties unknown to assassinate the hacker known as Nanao=A in episode 5.
Vektor CP1
Eka Tokura, leader of the Human Evolutionist faction, carries a Vektor CP1 with a stainless steel slide.
Heckler & Koch VP70
When Batou raids Kusanagi's weapons cache at her safehouse, a Heckler & Koch VP70 is visible in the rack on the bottom of her underwear drawer, along with its stock/burst fire unit and several magazines.
Mateba 2006M
As a tribute to the 1995 Ghost in the Shell film, Togusa retrieves this Mateba, which is almost identical to the model shown in that film (although this version is approximately 1" shorter) from a box in his house in episode 26, planning to use it to assassinate a high-ranking corrupt government official, but is stopped by Batou before he can use it.
Tokarev TT-33
A Tokarev left behind by Marco is found by Batou and Togusa in episode 10.
Beretta 93R
An assassin working for the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare uses a Beretta 93R to assassinate Dr Imakurusu in episode 21.
Glock 17
Several Glock 17s are seen in episode 6 in the hands of would-be assassins trying to kill the Superintendent General. Special Security Team operators in episode 13 were armed with the Glock 17 as their main sidearm.
Glock 33AV (AdVance)
A firing range scene in episode 15 depicts Batou evaluating the G33 AV (a fictional variant) which features a slightly lengthened barrel housed inside a compensator/barrel weight with an accessory rail, and an extended magazine well in order to comfortably accept full size G31 magazines. This is in fact a product placement tie-in with airsoft manufacturer Tokyo Marui, promoting their then-new G26AV model, which externally appears identical. Promotional material depicting this scene was produced by Tokyo Marui.
Beretta Cougar
The elder of the two robbers raiding the London wine fund in episode 17 carries a Beretta Cougar of unknown caliber.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP7
Many of the Human Evolutionist terrorists defending the oil rig against Section 9 in episode 13 use MP7s of unknown subtype.
CZ Vz.61 Skorpion
Marcelo Jarti uses a Skorpion against Togusa in episode 7. Another Vz.61 appears in episode 17 in the hands of a robber.
Heckler & Koch MP5
Narcotics Suppression Squad (NSS) members raiding the Sunflower Society cyberbrain sclerosis support group in episode 20 carry H&K MP5s of unknown subtype, with fully automatic fire capabilities and fitted with integrated tactical light foregrips, short magazines and no shoulder stock.
SOCIMI Model 821
Gondo's thugs in episode 7 all carry SOCIMI Model 821 submachine guns.
Steyr TMP
In episode 10, Marco fires at Borma with a Steyr TMP.
Unidentifed Submachine Gun
This unknown submachine gun is seen twice in episode 10, first in a video in Marco's personel file, and again in Marco's hideout. The weapon appears to be something of a combination between a QCW-05 and a Chang Feng CF-05.
Shotguns
SPAS-12
A Franchi SPAS-12 can be seen in Marco's hideout.
Assault Rifles
Seburo C26A
The primary weapon for Section 9 operatives is the fictional Seburo C26A assault rifle. The C26A uses a crooked 50 round box magazine that feeds in a bullpup pattern, entering the gun at 45 degrees from the bore and slanting to lie parallel to the barrel, locking into the front grip. Fired cartridge cases eject into a permanently mounted brass catcher mounted on top of the gun. Its ergonomics are similar to the FN F2000, with the trigger protected by a large loop that serves as a grip for the off hand. It is occasionally seen with a two-stage silencer attachment.
M16A2
During episode 10, several American Empire soldiers armed with M16A2s can be seen during a flashback to Batou's days as a Ranger.
AK-47
Also in use by the Human Evolutionists is the AK-47.
Vektor CR21
Saito briefly examines a Vektor CR-21 assault rifle loaded with HV (high-velocity) ammunition, used by the Human Evolutionists in episode 13.
Sniper Rifles
Anti-Tank Rifle
Saito uses this large-calibre anti-materiel rifle while attempting to stop the runaway HAW-303 tank in episode 2. The rifle itself s fictitious, but draws upon several real-world designs, primarily the Mechem NTW-20 and the Lahti L-39. Its user is forced to rived down the weapon's bipod, and can make use of a computer-assisted targeting system that uses both GPS targeting systems and an interface with Saito's own cybernetics to ensure long-range accuracy. In one episode, Major Kusanagi takes this weapon and uses it to shoot a Narc Squad member wearing a prototype power armor suit point-blank several times after he had blown her arm off and nearly crushed her head, the Major's anger and cybernetically-enhanced strength allowing her to effectively wield the massive weapon one-handed.
AK-74M (outfitted as a sniper rifle)
In episode 6, one of the people attempting to assassinate the Superintendent General includes a sniper armed with an AK-74M with a 20-round magazine and a scope attachment. The sniper is subdued by Saito before he can use the weapon.
Saito's Sniper Rifle
During the opening sequence in the pilot episode, Saito is briefly seen covering Kusanagi with this high-caliber rifle.
Yu's Sniper Rifle
Described by the S.A.C. series' mecha designer as actually being a civilian weapon, this is a high caliber bolt-action rifle that sports a polymer thumbhole stock. The weapon's aesthetics draw heavily from both the Walther WA 2000 and the Accuracy International Arctic Warfare series. The caliber is described as being "12.00mm".
Machine Guns
M249 SAW
In the episode "Jungle Cruise" (episode 10), Batou is seen using an M249 SAW in a flashback to his time as a Ranger in South America during World War III.
GE M134 Minigun
Batou fields a futuristic man-portable GE M134 Minigun to slow down the incursion of Umibozu troops into Section 9's headquarters in episode 24. The gun is fed by two massive ammunition drums attached underneath. The Tachikoma sentient multiped tanks can also be fitted with compact .50 calibre multibarreled machineguns, if their standard 50mm grenade launcher is swapped out.
Other Weapons
RPG-7
Human Evolutionists attempt to destroy Section 9's Tachikomas and tilt-wing aircraft with RPG-7s, but fail to score any hits.
Milkor MGL
A single SWAT officer in episode 2 can be seen holding a Milkor MGL fitted with an electronic sight. For some reason, the weapon is colored white.
Anti-Multipede Launcher
While trying to stop the runaway HAW-303 tank in episode 2, Ishikawa a 40mm launcher that fires specialized grenade shells loaded with a fast-hardening adhesive to immobilize the rogue Multipede tank.
Unidentified Rocket Launcher
During episode 2, Saito is briefly seen using this laser-guided rocket launcher during Section 9's mission to stop the runaway HAW-303 tank. It is only seen once, and Saito never even fires it, as the multipede tank detects the launcher's laser-targeting system and projects a series of decoy lasers before Saito can fire.
M67 Hand Grenade
Batou takes a pair of M67 hand grenades from Kusanagi's weapons cache in her safehouse. He uses one to destroy a power armor suit after killing the pilot.
