Steins;Gate is a 2011 anime series produced by White Fox, based on the 5pb. visual novel of the same name. It centers around a group of college students (led by Rintaro "Okarin" Okabe) and their accidental creation of a device capable of sending text messages back in time, allowing them to alter the past.
A non-chronologically-linear sequel, Steins;Gate 0, was released in 2018.
The following weapons were used in the anime series Steins;Gate:
M1911A1-pattern pistols (presently unidentified) are a rather common sight, appearing in the hands of Rounders in most of the episodes in which they appear (replacing the Walther PPKs they used in the original VN), as well as Okabe Rintaro in Episode 14 ("Physically Necrosis") and future resistance fighters in Episode 15 ("Missing Link Necrosis"), though neither of these parties are ever seen using them. Yugo "Mr. Braun" Tennouji also uses one in Episode 20 ("Finalize Apoptosis"), as opposed to the Beretta 92FS he used in the VN.

Said hammer is also uncocked, despite the pistol having been fired mere seconds earlier.Error creating thumbnail: File missingWith the confrontation continuing into Episode 13 ("Metaphysics Necrosis"), Moeka aims her 1911 at Okabe.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAnother pistol (formerly belonging to the aloha-shirted Rounder) lies on the floor.Error creating thumbnail: File missingPicking it up, Suzuha engages in a Mexican standoff with Moeka, in one of the series's more famous moments.Error creating thumbnail: File missingIn the following episode, Okabe takes away Moeka's 1911; it's worth noting that, despite the rather serious nature of this scene, he disarms her under the threat of a toy ray gun. Which, as it happens, is also a TV remote.Error creating thumbnail: File missingHis attempt to threaten her with an actual firearm is rather short-lived, with the audience getting a first-person shot of him losing consciousness. Note how here, the hammer appears to be cocked, despite it being uncocked in the prior shot and Okabe not cocking it.Error creating thumbnail: File missingHe awakes to the exact opposite situation.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAn anti-SERN resistance fighter drops their handgun; note how, unlike the rest of the series' 1911s, this one has wooden grips and a normal spur-type hammer.Error creating thumbnail: File missingEven while shooting someone, Mr. Braun's signature joyless smile never falters. Note the full-length guide rod.
Glock 17
Suzuha Amane uses a suppressed Glock 17 to shoot out a lock in Episodes 23 ("Open the Steins Gate") and 24 ("Achievement Point").
Error creating thumbnail: File missingSuppressed Glock 17 (3rd Gen) - 9x19mm ParabellumError creating thumbnail: File missingThe business end of Suzuha's suppressed sidearm. Note the odd shape of the slide, more akin to a Browning Hi-Power than a Glock; this appears to be the result of one of the artists looking at an image of a pre-Gen 3 Glock and mistaking the narrower portion of the dustcover for part of the slide.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThis would also explain why the slide does this when Suzuha fires her pistol; this type of slide-frame interaction would otherwise only be possible with a Glock 17L...Error creating thumbnail: File missing...which, as can be seen in the next shot, this clearly isn't.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5K
In Episode 15, SERN agents in Suzuha Amane's description of 2036 use Heckler & Koch MP5K submachine guns.
First seen in Episode 10 ("Chaos Theory Homeostasis III"), "Future Gadget #4 - Moad Snake" is a replica M18A1 Claymore mine. Aside from serving as a reference to Metal Gear Solid, its actual purpose is a "super-instant humidifier", which translates to it producing a massive amount of steam as soon as it's opened. The device plays an important role in Episode 13, with Okabe using it to create a smokescreen to blind Moeka.
In Episode 15, Suzuha is seen throwing an M84 Stun Grenade during her 2036 flashback.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingM84 Stun GrenadeError creating thumbnail: File missingSuzuha pulling the pin out of an M84 with her teeth; this is a rather bad idea, since grenade pins are not meant to come out more easily than human teeth (for rather obvious reasons), literally doubly so with an M84 since they have two separate pins.Error creating thumbnail: File missingTeeth unharmed, Suzuha throws her flashbang down the staircase at her pursuers.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAnother frame from the same sequence, showing that the grenade's lever is correctly absent.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA close-up of the grenade, showing that it is incorrectly depicted with a completely smooth, black body; the real grenade is painted multiple colors (as the reference image shows), and has holes in the central cylinder that allow it to make a loud "bang" without breaking apart and throwing shrapnel.
