Danger 5 is an Australian Comedy Series that aired from 2011 to 2015. The first season parodies television shows from the 1960s and 70s like Mission Impossible while the second season parodies various 80s films and TV shows.
The First season takes place during World War 2 and centers around an elite allied special forces team named Danger 5 who has to thwart Adolf Hitler's absurd plans like creating Nazi Dinosaurs or trying to possess Allied soldiers and turn them into Nazis via STDs.
The second season revolves around the Danger 5 discovering that Adolf Hitler is still alive and they have to stop him from his plan of becoming immortal and restoring the Third Reich by altering the outcome of the war.
Danger 5: The Complete Series Blu-Ray (2015)
The following weapons were used in the television series Danger 5:
Handguns
M1911A1
M1911A1s are used by Danger 5 and other allied forces throughout the first season.
World War II Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP. This was an issued U.S. Army pistol with parkerized finish, thus the official designation of M1911A1
Luger P08
Many Nazis and other characters use Luger P08s. Adolf Hitler uses a golden Luger in Hitler's Golden Murder Palace which can somehow cause people's skin to disintegrate when shot.
Joseph Mengele firing a Luger P08
Adolf Hitler holds his Golden Luger P08. The barrel suggests that it's likely a rubber prop rather than a proper Luger.

Walther P38
Many Nazis are seen using Walther P38s, which would be more common than Luger P08s in service during world war 2.

Tucker holds a commandeered P38 while disguised as an SS Sturmbannfuhrer.
Reck Perfecta
A group of Italians are seen using what appear to be Reck Perfecta blank firing pistols, these are technically anachronistic but technically don't resemble any real life firearm.
Reck Perfecta - 8mm P.A.K.

Walther PPK
Adolf Hitler's "Victory Knight" tries to use a Walther PPK to finish off the "Danger Warrior." Interestingly, Adolf Hitler actually did carry a Walther PPK for self defense on most occasions, however most scenes in the first season have him with a Luger or an MP40.

Beretta 92FS
Several characters are seen using Beretta 92FS pistols during the second season.
Beretta 92F - 9x19mm. The cosmetic differences are very slight and hard to see between this gun and the newer 92FS. Most of the changes are the inner workings of the gun.

Jackson about to alter history with his Beretta 92FS.
Jackson (dangerously) holding his Beretta while trying to check if Pierre's hallucinations of his body being disfigured because of the Space-Time continuum being altered were real.
Beretta 92FS Inox - 9x19mm Parabellum. This pistol was the screen used gun, used throughout the film by Det. Max Kirkpatrick (
William Baldwin) and once by Kate McQuean (
Cindy Crawford) in the film
Fair Game.
A Beretta 92FS Inox can be seen in a stash of weapons.
Revolvers
Colt Police Positive

Colt Python
Tucker can be seen using a Colt Python in a few moments of the Second Season.

Pierre tries to explain to Tucker that they can't kill anyone in the past due to the possibility of altering the Space-Time continuum while Tucker holds his Colt Python ready to kill more Nazis.
Submachine Guns
MP40
In Hollywood fashion, many Nazis are armed with MP40s. They also get used by various other characters.
All 5 Danger 5 members armed with MP40s
SS Guards armed with a Walther P38, MP40 and Luger P08.
Jackson: Only Americans Drink the Nog Ilsa and Jackson armed with an MP40 and a Luger P08 respectively, about to Kill an SS guard who was drinking "Nazi Nog".
MP38
In the episode Hitler's Golden Murder Palace Adolf Hitler and Edwin Rommel build experimental MP38s made out of gold, which somehow makes them more powerful and give them perfect accuracy, but with the added side effect that they heat up when fired in full auto, which Hitler ends up trying and then running away. These appear to simply be casts of real MP38s or Rubber Props.
The MP38. The submachine gun of the German Military Before 1940. It was still used in small quantities in 1941 and 1942.

Sten Mk IIs are used in the first episode.
M1A1 Thompson

Ilsa firing the Thompson M1A1.
MAC-11
The "Danger Warrior" uses a MAC-11 with a suppressor against the giant Nazi monsters. The MAC-11 is highly anachronistic considering that the first season takes place during World War 2
RPB Industries M11A1 - .380 ACP
The "Danger Warrior" with it's giant MAC-11. Considering that it's being used by a giant robot, one must wonder why it has a suppressor.
IMI Uzi
Adolf Hitler (rather ironically) carries a scoped Uzi throughout the second season. A toy version with even more attachments is as a part of the "Adolf Hitler Action Set" seen in one of the credits sequences in Season 2.
IMI Uzi with buttstock collapsed - 9x19mm
Adolf Hitler, disguised as a high school student named "Johnny Hitler," murders Holly's foster parents with his Uzi
Adolf Hitler with his Uzi in Tucker's PTSD induced Dream Sequence.
Hitler holds his Uzi while possessing Holly's body
"Boss Hitler" with his Uzi/Sword combo, surrounded by guards armed with MP5Ks. In reality, this weapon wouldn't work because the blade would likely block the charging handle.
The "Super Uzi" from the "Adolf Hitler Action Set" commercial. This one appears to have a GP-30 Grenade launcher, which is never seen in the show.
Cobray M11/9
Cobray M11/9 pistols (a common substitute for MAC-10 and MAC-11 SMGs in movies and TV Shows) can be seen in the second season.

An M16A1 can be seen in a stash of weapons.

AKM
AKMs are seen in the episode Super Dead. In Danger 5's universe, they apparently only work on Gypsies and would be useless against the Zombies in the episode.
Tucker with an AKM while playing the Gypsy shooting Gallery at USSR-Land
The AKM inside of a Claw Machine. Notice that there's silhouettes of standard AK47s on the machine. As one would expect, there's likely no conceivable way to get something like this out of a claw machine.

AKMS
AKMSs can also be seen in Super Dead.
M1 Carbine
Allied Italian "soldiers" use M1 Carbines in a futile attempt to kill Adolf Hitler (Who has possessed the body of Holly, the immortal teenager) after he travels back in time to rewrite history. In reality, they should be using Carcano M91 rifles.

Jackson with an all-black Remington 700. it looks like it's standing in for an M24 Sniper Weapons System, but obviously isn't given the lack of the M24's Butt Plate.

A few characters can be seen with Model 1897 Trench Guns. It's most notably used by Colonel Chestbridge as his "Sit Down Gun."

Grenades
Mk 2 hand grenade
Mk 2 hand grenades can be seen in a few scenes.
Mk 2 "Pineapple" World War II-made High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade (sometimes written Mk II). This example has a WW2-era fuze design as can be seen from the front of the spoon curling over rather than under the hinge at the front: this was changed postwar because the older hinge would sometimes allow the spoon to be pushed far enough forward to release the striker while still attached to the grenade.
