The elite guards of Atlantis were armed with lever-action rifles. One of the characters identified them as "Winchester 1888" though such model doesn't actually exists. After the guards were disarmed, all the main characters armed themselves with these rifles and used them against monsters and guards during their escape. The rifles differs from one another and most likely are of different models but they are never seen good enough to be identified correctly. | The elite guards of Atlantis were armed with lever-action rifles.
