Any idea what this kludge is supposed to be? Its the Envoy blaster/gun/thing from Altered Carbon. Some sort of vaguely AR-15 based thing with what I think is a flip-up magnifier as a sight

I don't believe it is anything to do with an AR-15, pretty sure it is built from a Tippman Cronus paintball marker.

Good call on the Tipman, got more screenshots and the grip and receiver seem to match. A decal seems to suggest the in-universe manufacturer as "???NKOA ARMS"

I'm pretty sure the first gun is a Px4, is the second a USP?

I agree on the PX4, but I think the HK pistol is a Mk23 based on the rear sights and frame safety.

Yup definitely a Mk 23 and a PX4, the USP doesn't have as pronounced of a vertical dip/curve in the trigger guard as the Mk 23 does.

And some more:

This looks a bit like a Chiappa Rhino, but I'm pretty sure its just a prop. Referred to as a "modified second-series Nemex". The "cylinder" is actually a 'charge pack"


Found a promo pic that shows the Envoy Blaster's markings. "NKO ARMS"

This seems to be a custom build for the show

And a weapons cache, with all the usual suspects of Vancouver-filmed sci-fi
