M1911A1

The task previously mentioned was to assemble a completely disassembled 1911A1 in one minute. The 1911A1 also appears to be Xiang-Ying/Glassheart's preferred weapon through the series.

Unknown SMG

A unknown SMG in episode 8 can be seen being used by Xiang-Ying in a mission during a flashback.

The unknown SMG in the case handed to Xiang-Ying by her contact.

• The selector switch and other mechanisms above the grip almost make it look like it could possibly be a Skorpion vz. 61, but the magazine is way too big.

Sniper Rifles

Heckler & Koch PSG-1

Assassin's sent by the Zhuque Corps are armed with Heckler & Koch PSG-1 rifles. An interesting note is that they are shown as being able to fire in fully automatic, either that or the users are firing in semi-auto extremely quickly.
