The following weapons were used in the anime series Spriggan (2022):
The CAA Tactical RONI is used by underground treasure hunter Yoshino Somei as her personal weapon. This replaces the GIAT FAMAS that she used in the "Forest of No Return" manga arc. That arc also debuted the RONI, which is outfitted with the Glock 18C. Kaneko confirms this on his twitter.
Glock 17
The Glock 17 is seen as a recurring sidearm.
SIG-Sauer P226 TACOPS
Yu Ominae uses a SIG-Sauer P226 TACOPS as his preferred sidearm. According to Kenichi Kaneko, who helped David productions animated the firearms used in the anime, he said that the decision was made in order to update their weapons since the storyline in the manga was updated to be in the present day post-September 11 in the year 2022.
Walther P99
The Walther P99 is used by Colonel Kutheimer's Neo-Nazi factions in Egypt, replacing the Walther P5 as seen in the manga.
Assault Rifles
AS Val
The AS Val is used in "Flame Serpent" by 45th Guards Spetsnaz Detached Brigade commandos operatinag in the Mount Fuji region.
FN SCAR-L
The FN SCAR-L is used by the majority of Machiner's Platoon commandos as their primary assault rifles, being a unit that operates under USSOCOM command.
Heckler & Koch G36K
The Heckler & Koch G36K is used by Yu as his preferred primary weapon, replaced the Heckler & Koch G3A3/G3A4. According to Kenichi Kaneko, who helped David productions animated the firearms used in the anime, he said that the decision was made in order to update their weapons since the storyline in the manga was updated to be in the present day post-September 11 in the year 2022.
Heckler & Koch G36C
The Heckler & Koch G36C is used by ARCAM Private Army soldiers as their primary weapon, outfitted with the IDZ stock. In the manga, they're outfitted with a variety of small arms. Kaneko mentioned in his twitter that this was done in order to give them a sense of realism since an organized paramilitary unit would need to have standard weapons in order to share ammo.
Heckler & Koch XM8
The Heckler & Koch XM8 is used by Trident Corporation mercenaries, replaced the Steyr ACR as used in the manga. Kaneko mentioned in the anime guidebook that the change was made since the Steyr ACR was considered back then to be adopted in a major western nation as a military weapon. Due to this (and likely the XM8 is still seen in some numbers in Malaysia), the weapon was instead used in the ACR's place.
Battle Rifles
FN SCAR-H
The FN SCAR-H is used by American soldiers outfitted with heavy armor.
Shotguns
Franchi SPAS-12
