So, this is a thread for particularly note-worthy weapons across various films. Now, the weapons don't have to be iconic in terms of pop-culture or real-life audiences (although they can be).
They can, for example, be things like the Mexican, from the 2001 film of the same name. A gun that was noted as being a valuable antique, and highly sought after in that world. Of course, things like Captain America's shield, which is iconic both in the MCU itself and among comic fans, are also valid.
Or, if you can give decent reasoning for it, you can list any weapon that might not be considered note-worthy in terms of pop-culture or within a specific fictional universe, but which you personally thought was memorable. Maybe because of some features it had, or how a character used it during a specific moment/film.
So, obviously, I have already mentioned two. And I will throw another one out there. Constantine's holy shotgun from the 2005 film:

I thought this thing had a pretty sweet design.

Movie only, or does TV series weapons count too?

Go for it.

Well, the Berserker staff from AOS. It can empower you, cut into Asgardians, etc.
The Black hole grenade from TTDW. Easy to use, and foesn't depend on the opponent' durability.
Those are off the top of my head.

I googled it to see the full length. That's a cool design.

The pulse rifle from Aliens. Because of the way Hicks introduces it and how ****ing awesome it sounds.

^^^Yeah, and pretty unusual for a sword, allowing it to be gripped above the guard like that.
Quigley's rifle in Quigley Down Under really captured my imagination. From the way Selleck decribed it to how he used it as a quarter staff, to th shots made. Great weapon, really well built up.

- Anton Chigurh's silenced shotgun from No Country for Old Men.
- It's cool that the swords/short swords/daggers/armor in The Hobbit/LotR trilogies have character forged into them (Orcrist, Sting, Glamdring, Narsil broken then reforged into Anduril - Flame of the West).
- James Bond's classic Walther PPK.
- Also from Bond, C. Lee's Scaramanga's Golden Gun.

I was actually waiting for someone to bring this up. I'd already mentioned Cap's shield, so didn't want to go for the obvious one twice.

And, for a lighter tone, I will add this:

Another good one. I loved this scene from the film. It really highlights what a monstrous weapon the bow is:

James Bond's vibro ring and laser watch in Goldeneye. Heck many of the Bond watches
HulkIsHulk
Then the Pym particle gun used by Cross in Ant Man
HulkIsHulk
Dam we all forgot lightsabers
HulkIsHulk
The light discs from the TRON movies.
The triple blade from Sword and The Sorcerer. Detachable, has another blade inside it, can fire off the smaller two edges, etc.
The Seeker's sword -The Sword of Truth - from The Legend of the Seeker. Also the Agiel
Blade's sword, as well as the bladed dart firing knuckles in the second movie. Then his glaive, which got an upgrade in the TV series.
Then movie Daredevil batons. They can be extended into staffs which cold be used as walking sticks or Bo staffs. They had cables which could be connected so as to use them like nunchucks, and the edges extended out and could be fired to be used as grappling hooks
TheVaultDweller
The cricket bat from Shaun of the Dead.
HulkIsHulk
The proton packs of Ghost busters.
