The following guns were used in the film RoboCop 2:
Beretta 93R "Auto 9"
As in the previous film, RoboCop (Peter Weller) carries the Beretta 93R "Auto 9" as his sidearm of choice. Moreover, he is actually seen reloading the weapon on a few occasions (something he never seemed to do in the first film).
SIG-Sauer P228
Officer Anne Lewis (Nancy Allen) carries a SIG-Sauer P228 as her sidearm throughout the movie, which was a brand-new pistol at the time that RoboCop 2 was made (this is, in all likelihood, the first film ever to feature this gun, because the P228 was first introduced in 1990, the same year this film was made). The P228 can also be seen in the hands of the Little League coach-turned-robber during the incident at the electronics store.
UC-M21
Hob (Gabriel Damon) carries a UC-M21 as his weapon-of-choice throughout the film. This gun was designed by Dave Boatman and based on an earlier version conceived by Eugene Stoner, the Ares FMG. Stoner developed it in the early 1980s as a PDW for high-ranking politicians and wealthy businessmen in kidnapping prone nations. The blue exterior gives the gun the appearance of a plastic lunchbox, in order to fool unsuspecting cops who don't realize that Hob is a young drug lord.
IMI Desert Eagle Mark I
There are several appearances of the IMI Desert Eagle Mark I in the film. The first is during the gun store robbery in the opening, when a drug dealer steals a blued .357 Magnum version and uses it to kill the store owner. The second appearance is in the hands of Hob (Gabriel Damon), who uses a nickel .44 Magnum model to shoot RoboCop in the visor after RoboCop's directives prevent him from shooting a kid.
Pauza P50
During the gun store robbery in the beginning, the robbers can be seen taking Pauza P50 long-range sniper rifles from a display case which is specifically marked "Pauza Specialties" (which indicates that, contrary to what some RoboCop fan sites claim, this weapon is not supposed to be the same "Cobra Assault Cannon" seen in the previously film). RoboCop himself later uses one of these weapons when he confronts RoboCop 2 at the OCP building.
- Something happened with those shots there. Plus, I've always assumed the Pauza to be a upgraded Cobra Assault Cannon, given that we see it fire explosive rounds (albeit less powerful than the Barrett version's) when RoboCop confronts Cain/RoboCop 2. That's just me, though... --Clutch 04:13, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- I think that's just the movie exaggerating their power. I dunno if it's supposed to be the Cobra Assault Cannon or not. Maybe it's mentioned in the movie's script. But I would think that if it were supposed to be a Cobra, it wouldn't be seen in a display case with "Pauza Specialties" written over it, which is an obvious advertising plug for the manufacturer. -MT2008
- -- This has been discussed on the RoboCop Archive. An excerpt of the script of a deleted scene confirms that the Pauza that RoboCop uses at the end of the movie is meant to represent a Cobra Assault Cannon. Why the Pauza is used instead of the Barrett M82 shown in the previous film is not entirely known. As for the the gun being in the 'Pauza Specialties' case at the gun store at the beginning of the film, you're right - sheer product plugging.
Beretta 93R
An unmodified Beretta 93R (not the Auto 9) is used by one of Hob's thugs during the meeting with the mayor. Another can be seen in the gun store at the beginning of the film.
AT4
During the gun store robbery scene, a drug dealer (played by Thomas Rosales, Jr., who always plays characters in movies who get killed) fires at RoboCop with an AT4 rocket launcher.
Sterling L2A3
Norinco Type 56 (all variants)
Norinco Type 56 AK rifles are a very common weapon used in the film by Cain's (Tom Noonan's) thugs. Nearly every variation of the Type 56 appears in the film, including the fixed stock Type 56, the under-folding stock Type 56-1, and the side-folding Type 56-2. The Type 56 rifles in the film all seem to have some type of unusual flash hider which looks similar to that of the AK-74, and some of the rifles also have bakelite magazines.
Unknown Sniper Rifle
Used by a Sniper at the Nuke Plant, only to be shot in the head by RoboCop through the scope.
Browning M2 Aircraft
A Browning M2 Aircraft machine gun modified with Crew Served Weapon sight is used by Hob and is used to shoot off RoboCop's gun hand.
Heckler & Koch MP5K
The Heckler & Koch MP5K is another weapon used by Cain's thugs. In one scene, RoboCop kills a drug dealer who is using his MP5K to hold a baby hostage.
MAC-10
A MAC-10 is used by at least one of Hob's thugs in the scene where RoboCop 2 breaks up his meeting with the mayor.
M16A2
Many of the Detroit Police Officers in the film are seen using M16A2 assault rifles fitted with MWC "90-rounder" inverted drums, though at least a few have 30-round translucent magazines. Like most of the Hollywood "M16A2s", these all have M16A1-style flash hiders (as evidenced by the "starburst" pattern muzzle flash whenever they're fired).
Daewoo K1A1
Some of the Detroit Police Officers use the Korean-made Daewoo K1A1 carbine. Like their M16A2s, these are also fitted with 90-round inverted drum magazines. All of them also seem to have M16-style flash hiders rather than the long, conical flash hider that is more commonly seen on the K1A1.
Steyr AUG
Other Detroit Police Officers can be seen with Steyr AUG A1 assault rifles fitted with 42-round magazines, just like in the first movie.
Benelli M3 Super 90
Anne Lewis can be seen using a pistol-grip Benelli M3 Super 90 shotgun in the climax when the cops are shooting at RoboCop 2. Several other officers use these shotguns as well.
Detonics Combatmaster Two-Tone 1911
The classic detonics compact 1911 is used by one of Cain's thugs.
Armsel Striker
One of the drug dealers in the gun store robbery can be seen taking and then using an Armsel Striker cylinder shotgun from the store.
Remington 870
Angie (Galyn Görg) can be seen using a pistol-grip, sawed-off Remington 870 fitted with a grenade launcher during the shootout at the Nuke plant. A folding-stock Remington 870 shotgun is briefly visible in the hands of a Detroit police officer in the climax.
M134 Minigun
The M134 minigun is the main weapon of "RoboCop 2" or "RoboCain", the law enforcement droid that Cain's brain is implanted in. The minigun is seen being fired when RoboCop 2 bursts in on the drug deal as well as when the robodroid is introduced to the public.
Heavy Caliber Cannon
RoboCain is also armed with cannons similar to the ones mounted on ED-209. They're fired at the original RoboCop during the final confrontation.
