= Revolvers =
== Smith & Wesson Model 29 ==
The main weapon used by John Eastland (Robert Ginty) in his vigilante business is a Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolver. This revolver is correctly identified as ".44 Magnum" in the movie. It appears to have the "8-3/8"-inch barrel.
== Smith & Wesson Model 10HB ==
A revolver is seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box (except the forementioned Smith & Wesson Model 29). It is supposed to be a Smith & Wesson Model 10HB with 3" barrel but this is only a guess based on the shape and length of the ejector rod. This revolver was not used in action.
==Smith & Wesson Model 10==
What appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 10 is seen carried by both uniformed officers and detectives, including Det. James Dalton (Christopher George).

= Pistols =
== M1911A1 ==
In the opening scene one of Vietcong fighters carries a pistol that resembles M1911A1 (its slide seems to be longer than typical M1911). John Eastland (Robert Ginty) captures this pistol and uses it himself. An M1911-style pistol is also seen in Eastland's weapon box (it can be the same Colt MK IV Series 70 that appeares later in James Dalton's weapon box). This pistol was not used in action.
== Luger P 04 ==
A Luger P 04 is seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box. Due to the length of the barrel, it is the Navy version of the pistol with a 150 mm barrel (shorter than "Artillery" model with a 200 mm barrel). It was not used in action.
== Colt MK IV Series 70 ==
A Colt MK IV Series 70 pistol is one of Det. James Dalton's (Christopher George) weapons. Dalton carries it in the final scene (then this pistol switches to a revolver).

In the opening scene that takes place in Vietnam US Army sodiers are armed with M16/SP1s.
== Valmet M71S ==
Valmet M71S assault rifles are seen in hands of Viet Cong fighters in the opening scene. These are meant to stand in for the AK-47 or Norinco Type 56 rifles that the Viet Cong would have used in real life (since there were few AK pattern firearms available in the U.S. at the time this movie was filmed).

= Machine Guns =
== M60 ==
In the opening scene Michael Jefferson (Steve James) carries an M60 machine gun. M60s are also seen in hands of other US Army soldiers The M60 is also used by Vietcong fighters; possibly because more authentic Eastern Bloc machineguns were not available to U.S armorers at the time (although it's worth noting that the Vietcong did ocassionally use captured American weapons).
