Danger 5 is an Australian comedy series that aired from 2011 to 2015. The first season parodies television shows from the 1960s and 70s like Mission Impossible (TV Series) while the second season parodies various 80s films and TV shows.
The first season takes place during World War II and centers around an elite Allied special forces team named Danger 5 who has to thwart Adolf Hitler's absurd plans like creating Nazi Dinosaurs or trying to possess Allied soldiers and turn them into Nazis via STDs.
The second season revolves around Danger 5 discovering that Adolf Hitler is still alive and must foil his plan of becoming immortal and restoring the Third Reich by altering the outcome of the war.
Many Nazis and other characters use Luger P08s. Adolf Hitler uses a golden Luger in Hitler's Golden Murder Palace, which can somehow cause people's skin to disintegrate when shot.
A group of Italians are seen using what appear to be Reck Perfecta blank-firing pistols, these are technically anachronistic, but don't resemble any real-life firearm. The Reck Perfecta can also be seen in the first episode.
Adolf Hitler's "Victory Knight" tries to use a Walther PPK to finish off the "Danger Warrior." Interestingly, the real Adolf Hitler actually did carry a Walther PPK for self defense on most occasions, however, most scenes in the first season have him with a Luger or an MP40. Erwin Rommel and a couple other characters can also be seen carrying them.

Smith & Wesson 36 Chief's Special
What appear to be Smith & Wesson Model 36 Chief's Special can be seen in several episodes in season 2. A golden Model 36 is used by Pierre in several scenes.
Tucker uses a Colt Python in several episodes of the second season.

Submachine Guns
MP40
In Hollywood fashion, most Nazis are armed with MP40s. They are also used by various other characters.
In the episode Hitler's Golden Murder Palace, Adolf Hitler and Erwin Rommel build experimental MP38s made out of gold, which somehow makes them more powerful and gives them perfect accuracy, but with the added side effect that they heat up when fired in full-auto, which Hitler ends up trying and then running away. These appear to simply be casts of real MP38s or rubber props.
The "Danger Warrior" uses a MAC-11 with a suppressor against the giant Nazi monsters. The MAC-11 is highly anachronistic considering that the first season takes place during World War II.
Adolf Hitler (rather ironically) carries a scoped Uzi throughout the second season. A toy version with even more attachments is as a part of the "Adolf Hitler Action Set" seen in one of the credits sequences in Season 2.
AKMs are seen in the episode Super Dead. In Danger 5's universe, they apparently only work on Gypsies and are useless against the zombies in the episode.
Allied Italian "soldiers" use M1 Carbines in a futile attempt to kill Adolf Hitler (who has possessed the body of Holly, the immortal teenager) after he travels back in time to rewrite history. In reality, they should be using Carcano M91 rifles.
A prop Bazooka with a MAC-11 handle is used by Nikita Khrushchev and Adolf Hitler. Khrushchev's fires a rocket with Joseph Stalin's head on the front, somehow.
