==Beretta 92FS (mocked up as Beretta 93R)==
Zack (William Gregory Lee) carries a Beretta 93R fitted with a suppressor when he and Max go to rescue Tinga in "Meow" (S1E19). This is actually a Beretta 92FS converted to full-automatic and fitted with a 93R flash hider and grip (this exact same gun has been used in numerous productions filmed in British Columbia).
==Taurus PT92CS (modified)==
In "Some Assembly Required" (S2E7), Cyborg Zack (William Gregory Lee) carries a Taurus PT92CS fitted with a custom-built compensator. This is the exact same gun that was originally carried by Mark Dacascos in the movie Crying Freeman (both productions had the same armorers).
== Walther P99 ==
The Walther P99 is carried by high-level Manticore personnel and a few others.
== Vektor CP1 ==
Logan Kale (Michael Weatherly) offers Max a Vektor CP1 early in Season 1, but she refuses. He later carries the Vektor as his main sidearm throughout the run of the show.

== Glock 17 ==
Various thugs and some police officers are seen with Glock 17 pistols. Logan's team appear to be armed with Glocks when they are ambushed in the pilot, though the police hoverdrone footage never shows the weapon clearly.
==Ruger P89/KP89==
The prison warden carries a Ruger P89 in "Flushed" (S1E3). Original Cindy (Valarie Rae Miller) takes it during the escape until the warden gets it back. Thugs in later episodes also use the P89, including the stainless KP89 model. Asha (Ashley Scott), head of the S1W resistance movement, carries the KP89 in Season 2.

==Smith & Wesson 5906==
Gerhardt Bronck (James Kidnie) carries a Smith & Wesson 5906 in "Out" (S01E10). Due to a continuity error, his weapon becomes a similar Smith & Wesson 5946 in several scenes (the 5946 is the DA-only version of the 5906).

Dr. Adriana Vertes (Brenda Bakke), an ex-Manticore doctor helping Logan, pulls a nickel Jericho 941 R on Max in "Female Trouble" (S01E13). Max disarms her in seconds and disassembles the weapon. In "Pollo Loco" (S01E18), X-5 serial killer Ben (Jensen Ackles) gives the nickel Jericho 941 R to Father Destry (Robert Floyd), a would-be victim, before contemptuously disarming him.

In "Bag 'Em" (S02E02) Manticore forces carry the P90, Alec (Jensen Ackles) and the X6s stealing a couple when they rescue Max. The P90 is the main weapon of Manticore forces in Season 2, replacing the MP5A3.

Lydecker (John Savage) is briefly seen in the woods with an Heckler & Koch MP5K in the Season 1 finale "...And Jesus Brought a Casserole" (S01E20). Due to the darkness, it is difficult to determine which version it is.
== Uzi ==
In one episode at least, the Uzi was seen.

=Rifles=
== M16A2 ==
Military and occasionally the police carried M16A2s. There are no real M16A2s on the show, however; all of those seen in non-firing scenes were Tokyo Marui airsoft replicas. The firing M16s on the show were mostly Colt Model 715s.
==Colt Model 715/Olympic Arms K4B==
Whenever M16s were fired on the show, they were always Colt Model 715s or the Olympic Arms K4B equivalent. These are distinguished from the airsoft M16A2s used in non-firing scenes by the A1-style rear sight.
==Colt Model 609==
Police and some soldiers carry the Colt Model 609 as their main weapon. Police units carry 609s fitted with some sort of camera unit or dot-sight with a power cord leading to a backpack, while the Rangers carry stock 609s. Zack carries a Colt Model 609 carbine in the Season 1 episode " Hit a Sista Back". He later uses the weapon, along with Syl (Nicki Aycox) and Krit during the raid on Manticore in the Season 1 finale "And Jesus Brought a Casserole". X7 child soldiers carry the Model 609 as well, as do some young X5s in a flashback. At least in season 2, and probably in season 1 they appear to be mostly airsoft replicas (Probably Tokyo Maru like with the M16A2s), since they are seldom fired and are being used by minors. 
==Enfield L85A1==
Enfield L85A1 rifles are used by the Conclave's Phalanx unit, including its leader Thula (Amy Dumas), in "Freak Nation" (S2E21).
==Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistol==
Syl ( Nicki Aycox) is seen loading up a Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistol fitted with an M4 stock and carry handle in the Season 1 finale, '...And Jesus Brought a Casserole". This is one of the exact same weapons later used in 3000 Miles to Graceland (both productions had the same armorers).

==Steyr AUG A1==
A thug is seen with Steyr AUG A1 assault rifle in the pilot episode. Unfortunately, it was impossible to get a shot that wasn't incredibly blurry.
=Shotguns=

==Ithaca 37 (sawed-off)==
A convenience store cashier tries to pull a sawed-off Ithaca 37 when X6s raid his store for food in "Bag 'Em" (S2E2). Predictably, the X6s take the weapon and it is carried by Bullet for the rest of the episode.

=Grenades and launchers=
==M18 smoke grenade==
Max (Jessica Alba) uses an M18 smoke grenade as a distraction just before the apartment shootout in "Hit a Sista Back" (S1E20). It gives off white smoke.
== Unknown hand grenade==
A Red Series soldier is seen with a grenade on his web gear in the Season 1 Episode "Rising". Max later pulls the pin to kill him. Despite resembling a smoke grenade, the show treats it as an HE-frag grenade

=Other= 
==Arcade Guns==
In "Brainiac" (S2E10), a number of light guns can be seen that resemble actual firearms in the unnamed video arcade that hosts the S1W resistance group. Two appear to be modelled like a short-barrelled PSG-1 with a large scope but no magazine or magazine well. 
Given the "KONAMI" logo embossed on the handguard (focussed on in a panning shot in what could be an example of product placement) and the two-player setup with two identical light guns on the same cabinet side-by-side, the arcade cabinet in question appears to be Silent Scope 2: Dark Silhouette. This is supported by how the title was a 2-player-capable game released for arcades by Konami in 2000, mounting similar light guns as those seen in the episode (the ingame player characters used modelled PSG-1 rifles as well). 
This episode also featured a gameplay cameo of the PC title Aliens vs. Predator 2, masquerading as an arcade cabinet.
