Code Geass, definitely. It's got some advanced stuff as well but mostly those are prototypes/ experimentals. The mechs they use have regular firearms + close combat weapons in various forms. Also, it rocks, has a badass protagonist/ anti-hero, and the story is well thought out and executed. Definitely recommended
edit: Gunparade March is another you'd probably like. |

I'll throw in recommendations for old licensed stuff: * Gundam 08th MS Team, where the mecha and combat are treated rather realistically. * Patlabor; the movies are fairly serious/realistic; what little I remember of the TV show was a bit like You're Under Arrest with mecha. * Appleseed (2004 cg movie); one of my all-time favorites, definitely fits your criteria of mass produced mecha using conventional weapons. |

Well as Ichihara Asako said in Macross they barley use any beam weapon, only one that uses beam weapons are the ship. Now since you said any mech, did you watch Fafner? pretty good show and it's made by the same studio that made Heroic Age. Though for super robot shows I would highly recommend Gunbuster, Diebuster, and my favorite anime of all time GaoGaiGar and GaoGaiGar Final.

Innocent Venus is another show that would meet your criteria. There are several different "levels" of mechs: ranging from the light and heavy armored suits used by the regular military to the experimental battle suits used by the protagonists. Projectile and kinetic weapons are the norm - I don't recall any energy or beam weapons being used.
