AK-Alfa

The AK-Alfa is a modernized version of the Kalashnikov rifle designed by Israeli firearm accessory company CAA. Outside of the United States, the rifle is manufactured by and branded under Kalashnikov Israel, a CAA subsidiary created with the support of Russia's Kalashnikov Concern.
In the United States, the rifle appears to be manufactured by and branded under Kalashnikov USA, the business name of RWC Group, LLC (who are fully separate from Kalashnikov Concern, but use branding identical to Kalashnikov Concern's "Kalashnikov" brand seemingly without license). Kalashnikov USA have noted the rifle's Israeli design origins in their trade show communications, but did not specify CAA's involvment. That said, sources have stated that the AK-Alfa was planned to be manufactured in USA by a factory operated directly by the CAA through CAA USA.
As CAA (including CAA USA) is primarily a firearm accessory maker with no firearm making experience, it seems that the AK-Alfa was primarily a furniture revamp with no changes done to the AK's functional components, which are supplied from proper AK manufacturers. Sources have claimed that AK-Alfas produced by CAA of Israel were built around Russian-made Saiga semi-auto AK rifles. Given the sanctions placed on Kalashnikov Concern by the United States of America, it seems likely that AK-Alfas produced by CAA USA/Kalashnikov USA were built around American-made AKs made by Kalashnikov USA.
Kalashnikov Israel AK-Alfas are much more standardized than Kalashnikov USA AK-Alfas, usually featuring muzzle devices with two portings on each side and the top, 90-degree gas blocks, and receivers with a cutout on the left side underneath the charging handle port; all of these features can be seen in the first image to the right. Kalashnikov USA AK-Alfas are much less standardized, and usually feature 45 degree gas blocks, non-standard muzzle devices, and sometimes receivers without a cutout underneath the charging handle.

AM-17

The AM-17 (Russian: Aвтомат Малогабаритный, lit. "Small-sized Automatic Rifle") is a compact Russian assault rifle developed by Kalashnikov Concern. The AM-17 is designed to be a modern assault rifle made to compliment Russia's large scale overhauling of its military's personal equipment. Unlike most other Russian assault rifles, the AM-17 consists of two receivers connected by a hinge rather than a single piece of stamped metal. It is compatible with AK-74 magazines and fires the standard 5.45x39mm round. It is currently being evaluated by the Russian Army, special forces, and police units.

AMSD OM 50 Nemesis

The OM 50 Nemesis is a bolt-action anti-materiel rifle made by the Swiss company AMSD (Advanced Military Systems Design). The first prototype was introduced in the early 2000s, and the rifle was continuously improved as the years went by. The last version produced by AMSD is known as the OM 50 Nemesis MK5, which has a redesigned pistol grip, magazine well, buttstock, and bolt handle. Swiss Arms (formerly SIG) later acquired the rights to further develop and manufacture the Nemesis. Swiss Arms made several changes and improvements to the rifle and offered the updated version of the Nemesis. The new design of the gun also called for a new designation: the SAN 511.

AMT Automag Pistol Series

AMT (Arcadia Machine and Tool), in an attempt to resurrect the name of the AMC .44 Auto Mag Pistol, named their weapons the Automag, even though their designs had little to do with the original pistol.

AMT Backup

The AMT Backup is an American compact semi-automatic pistol. The Backup was first made in 1978 by Ordnance Manufacturing Corporation (OMC) and sold as the OMC Backup. Arcadia Machine & Tool (AMT) soon took over production and sold it as the AMT Backup. It was one of the first ultra-compact semi-automatic handguns, released at a time when compact firearms was a role typically taken by snub-nosed, small-frame revolvers. As the name would imply, it was marketed as a backup gun for police officers or security guards, as well as a concealable weapon for self-defense.

AN/M14 incendiary grenade

The AN/M14 incendiary grenade or M14 incendiary grenade is an extremely high-temperature incendiary grenade developed by the United States. It uses the same fuze as the AN/M8 smoke grenade, and originally used the same sheet metal body too, while newer-production grenades seem to have switched to using the body of the M83 smoke grenade instead. Its filler is 26.5 ounces (751 grams) of TH3, a mixture of iron thermate, barium nitrate, sulfur and a binding chemical. This mixture burns at 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit (2,200 degrees Celsius) for 35-40 seconds, long enough to burn through a half-inch thick steel plate, and produces its own oxygen, meaning it can even burn underwater.
It is primarily used to sabotage enemy equipment, particularly vehicle engines, communications gear and heavy guns since the grenade produces molten iron which can weld components together as it cools. It does not have a bursting fuze: the thermate simply burns through the grenade body when it ignites. Because of this, the grenade has to be placed in direct contact with (ideally on top of) whatever it is being used against. The AN/M14 was also issued to aircrews (hence it getting the AN prefix) and could be used as a seamarker (since it would happily burn on water and burns incredibly brightly, enough to cause serious retinal damage at close range if the user looks directly at it) or for the destruction of sensitive equipment like radios and radars after a crash to prevent their capture.

AN/M5 Pyrotechnic Discharger

The AN/M5 Pyrotechnic Discharger was an electrically or pull cord-operated six-shot rotary 37mm flare launcher mounted on larger Army Air Force bombers during the Second World War. The cylinder is indexed by the rotation of a wheel at the rear which also operates the double action hammer: it appears on some AN/M8s this was driven with an electric motor, while on others a rack-and-pinion gear connected to a handle (referred to as a "remote controller") was used.
They were typically mounted in a port in the aircraft's fuselage so they could be fired from inside, using the mounting plate around the barrel. These devices are fairly rare today since few crews thought to take them home and most were destroyed along with the aircraft they were mounted in.

AN/M8 HC smoke grenade

The AN/M8 HC Smoke Grenade is a standard white burning-type smoke grenade developed in the 1940s with a 1.2-2.0 second fuze, using hexachloroethane-zinc (HC) filler, producing a smoke screen for 105-150 seconds depending on weather conditions.
The smoke produces toxic fumes, and warnings issued with the grenade states it is not to be used in enclosed spaces unless soldiers are wearing breathing gear, due to producing "harmful hydrochloric fumes." The actual dangerous chemical produced is zinc chloride, which is caustic, can cause serious respiratory problems, and displaces oxygen in enclosed spaces. The steel grenade casing also becomes very hot when the grenade is producing smoke, to the point it can cause fires.
As a result of this, any AN/M8 HC appearing in a live-action production is likely a replica or empty shell dispensing a much more actor-friendly smoke mixture. As of the September 2000 version of FM 3-23.30 ("grenades and pyrotechnic signals") the AN/M8 HC was listed as obsolete.

ASP

The ASP is a custom pistol based on the Smith & Wesson 39, first designed and built by Paris Theodore in the 1970s. Theodore was the owner of a gun holster shop in New York called Seventrees, Ltd., but he also experimented with firearm designs for special forces alongside making gun holsters; the CIA was one of his customers. The ASP was created to satisfy the needs of these special forces, who wanted a concealable pistol.
Theodore's clandestine weapon production was managed through a sister company, the Armament Systems Procedures Corporation (ASP), from which the pistol gained its name. When Theodore sold his business in the late 70s, the ASP corporation was purchased by gun makers in Wisconsin, who continued to make the ASP pistols.
The ASP is based on the Smith & Wesson Model 39 or 39-2. Modifications include shortened barrel and slide, fixed barrel bushing, a unique "guttersnipe" system in lieu of conventional sights (featuring a rear slot that looks like a water trough, intended to be used by the shooter in fast instinct aiming), clear Lexan grip panels, a forefinger grip on the trigger guard, and a smoothed gun profile.
The pistol was notably used by James Bond in several of the novels written by John Gardner. Also, Felix Leiter carries an ASP in a story by Gardner's successor Raymond Benson (The Facts of Death), though Benson had 007 go back to the Walther PPK and the new P99.
