Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

In Episode 5, Deniz (Murathan Muslu) carries an MP5A3 with railed handguard to continue his duties as well as possible. Later, he finally gives the MP5s from the armory to Klaus' (Devid Striesow) group when Klaus offers Deniz the chance to join them and give him a place inside his personal bunker.

In Episode 8, when Herrmann (Fabian Hinrichs) finally abandons Marion (Nora Waldstätten) in order to enter the last bunker still open, a German soldier carries what appears to be an MG36, judging by the length of the barrel and the bipod.

Sniper Rifle

Unknown Sniper Rifle

Klaus (Devid Striesow) steals a unknown scoped rifle from a survivalist. He uses it to kills two soldiers who take Deniz (Murathan Muslu) hostage. The rifle has to be loaded one round at a time directly into the chamber as it seems to be missing the magazine that goes along with it. His daughter Nora (Luisa-Céline Gaffron) uses the rifle as well to practice shooting and to confront her father in the final episode.
