X8 axl blast

Axl using the Axl Bullets, his standard weapon.

Unlike X and Zero, Axl primarily uses a variety of guns called Special Arms in conjunction with his A-Trans ability to fight. In Mega Man X7, he only has a few guns, and most of his special weapons are simply weaker versions of X's, while in Mega Man X8 and Mega Man X: Command Mission, he uses a large variety of guns that, while individually weak, are able to fire quickly and have superb range.

Guns

Axl Bullet

Bullets

Axl's standard auto-firing weapon. It's capable of rapid fire shots, and Axl can aim the firearm up and down, at any angle.

Mega Man X7

The Double Bullet (ダブルバレット Daburu Baretto) is obtained by defeating Flame Hyenard in Mega Man X7, and is necessary to use Circle Blaze. When equipped, Axl can Lock-on and attack 2 different targets at once. The weapon itself doesn't appear in Mega Man X8; however, its model is used for the Bound Blaster.

The G-Launcher (Gランチャー G Ranchā) is obtained by defeating Vanishing Gungaroo in Mega Man X7, and is necessary to use Explosion. It shoots out extremely powerful bursts of energy, but lacks rapid-fire capabilities. The weapon itself doesn't appear in Mega Man X8; however, its model is used for the Blast Launcher.

The Ray Gun (レイガン Rei Gan) is obtained by defeating Tornado Tonion in Mega Man X7, and is necessary to use Volt Tornado. It shoots out laser beams that are slightly slower than the Axl Bullet, but much more powerful. It reappears in Mega Man X8.

Copy Shot/A-Trans

Copy Shot (コピーショット) is Axl's special ability. When fired at enemies of his size, he can retrieve their DNA cores and imitate them, using A-Trans. For example, by copying a Rollerroid from the Primrose stage in Mega Man X8, Axl can walk on spikes without dying. In Mega Man X7, Axl is also able to absorb the DNA cores of enemies much smaller than himself; instead of transforming, he merely gains the ability to use their special power. In Command Mission, the A-Trans ability is used as Axl's Action Trigger, "DNA Change". It has been expanded to allow him to copy defeated Maverick bosses, making his A-Trans functionally similar to X's boss-based weaponry. The form Axl takes depends on the combination of buttons pressed during Action Trigger. The more weapon energy Axl has, the longer he has to finish a command, but if he fails to complete any of them, he will simply fire a weak Copy Shot.
