For some reason, not enough PM-9s were available for the LDF extras during production. The Mini Uzi was used as a stand in for the Minebea M9, due to the latter being based on the Mini Uzi. The folding stock appears to have been removed

The Howa Type 64 is used as a training rifle for all recruits prior to indoctrination into the LDF, most noticeably Tezuka (Sota Fukushi) and Kasahara
Howa Type 89

Remington M24 Sniper Weapon System
The M24 Sniper Weapon System is the LDF's standard sniper rifle.
Media Betterment Committee

Bakushukai Militants
Norinco Type 56
