One of the typical "magical girl" anime characteristics that Madoka Magica stands out from is weaponry. While most such series feature weapons such as magical staffs and rods (when they show weapons at all), all heavily magic-related, weaponry in Madoka is far more mundane, with the main characters using weapons such as bows, swords and spears.
Homura Akemi is particularly notable for using real-life firearms and explosives to great effect, lacking weapons of her own.

With it, Homura is pinpoint accurate: she connected exactly fifteen shots, a standard full magazine of the Beretta M9, a US military variant. As she empties the magazine, it lead to speculation that it might have been stolen from a US base in Japan. |
