The following weapons were used in the anime Angel Heart:

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.

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.

Umibozu can be seen scaring some of the assassins by pulling out two Super Bazookas in episode 7 "My Beloved City" when they enter his café, Cat's Eye, another reference to City Hunter as well as referencing the authors earlier work "Cat's Eye"

Umibozu surprising the assassins with his Super Bazookas. Why he decided to pull those out in such an enclosed space is beyond me.
