Does anyone watch the anime called Black Lagoon? Its mainly about a salaryman that was abducted by some mercenaries, but ends up working for the mercenaries, although instead of using weapons and guns, he uses speech to negotiate with enemies. Excellent for those with a gun fetish, and to be honest, i think the main girl is pretty easy on the eyes also.

Not... one... bit. So, me watching - he takes the knife to her, laughing while he does it. He turns to me, and says, "Why so SERIOUS?" So, he comes at me with the knife, "Why so SERIOUS?!" He sticks the blade in my mouth, "Let's put a smile on that face! And... why so serious? -The Joker (The Dark Knight)

something got me wondering though, does anyone know what the anti-tank rifle Revy was using against the russian Mi-24? it looked like it was ripped right off of an Gepard anti-aircraft tank

I don't think that rifle was supposed to be a real life weapon but you likely found what it was designed after.

I thought that rifle looked distinctly like the AS-50 sniper. Does anyone know what the assault rifles that the Hotel Moscow guys used? I know it was true AK-47s because they looked different. And Balalaika mentioned they used 5.45mm rounds, but they didn't look like AKMs.

Hotel Moscow used AK-74 rifles and AKS-74U carbines

and the AS 50 has a second bar for barrel support, the rifle Revy uses does not, i'm agree with Overdose and Wanderer, its probably a hybrid of the OSV-96 and the Dragunov SVD
