Akira
Akira is a 1988 anime movie set in a dystopian and cyberpunk 2019 about a biker gang in the Japanese city of Neo-Tokyo. After an accident grants a member of the group telekinetic powers, the situation grows out of hand and creates problems for the government and the rebels. It is based of the manga of the same name.
The following weapons were used in the film Akira:
Handguns
Desert Eagle
Colonel Shikishima uses a Desert Eagle to shoot Tetsuo at the Neo-Tokyo Stadium.
Beretta M1934
One of the resistance members, while kidnapping Takashi, uses a Beretta M1934 and Mayor Nesu also appears to uses one with a squared/hooked trigger guard.
Mauser HSC
Kei uses a Mauser HSc to shoot a soldier.
Micro Uzi
These Micro Uzi looking pistols are used by the military.
Star Model 316
When Shikishima is about to get arrested a man holds a Star Model 316 on him.
Rifle
Enfield XL64E5
Enfield XL64E5 assault rifles, the SA80 prototypes, are used by the Neo Tokyo Police Troops, most notably in the scene where four police officers fire a hail of bullets into a resistance member.
Submachine Guns
Unknown SMG
Guards hold unknown silenced SMGs on Shikishima. They appear to be a fictional combination of a stockless UZI and an extended-barrel Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II with a barrel shroud.
Sten Mk. II
During the bombing of the skyscraper mall, one of the fleeing resistance members fires a Sten Mk. II submachine gun at pursuing soldiers before being gunned down.
Uzi
One of the resistance members carries a full-size Uzi during the infiltration of the government labs. Kei later uses it to shoot at the flying platforms.
Machineguns
GAU-19/A
A three-barrel .50 caliber GAU-19/A is mounted on the flying platform.
Launchers
Unknown Grenade Launcher
The Neo-Tokyo Army uses unknown Single-shot Grenade Launchers when trying to stop Tetsuo during his break-out. They look like DefTech Launchers with inline stocks and a lack of a foregrip.
"ARASAKA HLR-12X"
Although not really a launcher, particle-acceleration cannons called the "ARASAKA HLR-12X" are used by the army and Kaneda in the final battle against Tetsuo. The "projectile" of these particle-acceleration cannons are really an overpowered laser, shown as being able to cut through tissue and metal objects cleanly and easily - they also tend to go right through their target and hit things behind them. However, these massive super weapons do little damage to Tetsuo's accelerated form.
Tanks
Gun Platforms
Other than the flying platforms, the military use tanks to stop Tetsuo with no avail.
