==Smith & Wesson SW9M==
FBI Special Agent Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis) carries the Smith & Wesson SW9M (the 9mm subcompact version of the Smith & Wesson Sigma) as his sidearm throughout the film. Near the end of the film, Art (Bruce Willis) tells the FBI SWAT team leader (James MacDonald) "I got a 9mm down on the sidewalk", referring to his Sigma. This was previously listed as the 380 version of the Sigma Compact (Smith & Wesson SW380), however the rear serrations, silver barrel, and overall size of the firearm seen in the film, shows that Art carries the SW9M. The Heritage Auctions website also shows the screen used SW9M, used in the film.
==SIG-Sauer P226==
A SIG-Sauer P226 is the sidearm carried by the majority of the FBI agents seen in the film. Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis) is seen with what appears to be a full-size P226 holstered during a conversation in an FBI office. Special Agent Tommy B. Jordan (Chi McBride) also is seen with the handgun. The SIG also is used by Shayes (Peter Stormare) in the confrontation on the train. A SIG is also pulled by Lt. Colonel Nicholas Kudrow (Alec Baldwin) on the rooftop at the end of the film. The same gun is later used by Art.

A Heckler & Koch P7M8 is used by Peter Burrell (Lindsey Lee Ginter) both with and without a suppressor and is left at the murder scene. When examining the crime scene later, Art asks if the father is so broke, how could he afford the $1500 handgun.
