Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP7A1

A Heckler & Koch MP7A1 with a Trijicon RMR sight is used by a Colombian gang member (Christopher M. Campos) in "Bagman" (S5E08). The MP7 having an RMR is mildly anachronistic as the scene takes place in 2004 while the RMR wasn't available until 2009.

Heckler & Koch MP7A1 - 4.6x30mm

The mercenary shoots from behind the car.

The unnamed Colombian (Christopher M. Campos) is about to aim his MP7.

Rifles

AKMS

A guard of Lalo's hacienda named Miguel (Norman Mora) is armed with an AKMS fitted with a drum magazine in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10). He shoots some celebratory gunfire into the sky as his boss returns home, and later the gun is seen again several times.

Heckler & Koch HK416

Heckler & Koch HK416 with 14.5 inch barrel - 5.56x45mm NATO

The mercenary searches for Lalo with the HK416 at the ready.

Daniel Defense M4A1

The sicario assassins sent by Gus to kill Lalo in Mexico are armed with Daniel Defense M4A1 rifles fitted with an EOTech sight in "Something Unforgivable" (S5E10). Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton) also takes possession of one during the shootout. The appearance of this weapon and its optic is an anachronism, as the series is set in 2004, and neither the Daniel Defense M4A1 nor the EOTech 553 and EXPS-3 existed during that timeframe (though the Daniel Defense RIS II rail utilized on this weapon was first developed and evaluated by SOCOM during 2005-2006).

Daniel Defense M4A1 - 5.56x45mm NATO

The rifle fires when Lalo attacks its owner (Robert Paul Taylor). Note the tan EOTech 553.

The mercenary in the kitchen (Marco Morales) opens fire but Lalo escapes.

The remaining assassins (Michel Curiel, Jesus Banuelos, and George Cisneros) find a hidden tunnel.

Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton) fires the Daniel Defense M4A1 at sicarios in the tunnel.

Daniel Defense MK18

Most of the Colombian gang members are armed with Daniel Defense MK18s with Maxim SCW stocks and various sights during the money ambush in "Bagman" (S5E08). The rifle in this configuration is anachronistic.

Daniel Defense MK18 SBR - 5.56x45mm NATO

A Colombian gang member (Conrad R. Padilla) holds a DD MK18 with an Aimpoint T2 (or similar) red dot sight and double taped PMAGs when his crew blocks Saul's way.

The ambusher raises his gun, trying to find the unexpected shooter. Note the closed dust cover.

Tiburón starts shooting his DD MK18 when his mate is killed.

Another Colombian (Algin Mendez) fires the gun, which is fitted with an EOTech XPS sight.

He reloads the DD MK18. Note the Daniel Defense markings.

Tiburón shoots back before escaping in an SUV.

M40A1

Mike (Jonathan Banks) continues to use his M40A1 sniper rifle purchased from Lawson in Season 2. He rescues Saul from the Colombian gang ambush in "Bagman" (S5E08) and later (unintentionally) destroys the car with the last escaped mercenary in it with a well-aimed shot. He watches Lalo in Saul and Kim's apartment through the scope of his rifle in "Bad Choice Road" (S5E09).

M40A1 - 7.62x51mm NATO

The rifle is propped up on Saul's Suzuki Esteem when the gunfight ends in "Bagman" (S5E08).

Other
