Anna fires Zimmermann's PP
The PP is held high enough to see there's no lanyard loop by the heel of the gun, thus a Walther PP.

A uniformed officer is briefly seen with a PP.

Revolvers

Unidentifiable revolver

A revolver is deployed by one of the shooters during the final moments of the movie. The scene is too dark and the gun too far to discern distinguishable features. Likely a Smith & Wesson Model 36 or a Colt Detective Special as both were very popular at the time.

A hammer is visible (eliminating hammerless and shrouded hammer models) but unfortunately no other distinguishing features are visible.

H&K MP5A5 (9x19mm). Not specifically the version depicted in the movie, but an aproximation based on what can be seen.
The shape of the magazine combined with the setting (West Berlin, West Germany) indicates that the poorly visible gun is an MP5.
