Remington 870

Members of the Special Vehicle Unit (SVU) can be seen armed with Remington 870 shotguns with high-capacity magazine tubes for use when not aboard their labors. At the climax of the anime, Noa Izume uses her Remington 870 to shoot out the onboard computer of the rampaging Type Zero labor with Kanuka trapped in the cockpit.

Revolver Cannon

The Type 98 "Ingram" labors used by the SVU are armed with massive 37mm revolver cannons as their sidearms, their design drawing heavily from the four inch-barreled Colt Python revolver. The weapon has the Colt logo on the grip replaced with the Japanese police symbol and is stored in a compartment in the labor's lower right leg when not in use. One drawback of the weapon is that the pilot has to exit the labor in order to manually reload it, spare rounds also being stored in the same compartment.

Riot Cannon

In addition to the revolver cannons mentioned above, the Type 98 labors can also use 90mm pump-action riot cannons which resemble massively scaled-up Remington 870 folding stock shotguns with high-capacity magazine tubes. These weapons are typically employed in situations where additional firepower is required, most notably during the Ark raid.
