=Pistols=
==Heckler & Koch USP==
FBI Special Agent Richard Messner (Ryan Reynolds) carries the Heckler & Koch USP as his duty sidearm throughout the film, somewhat atypical for federal agents. FBI Special Agent Donald Carruthers (Ray Liotta) and the other FBI Agents also carry the Heckler & Koch USP as their sidearm. The USP is chambered in .45 ACP since the ".45 Auto" engraving on the USP's slide is visible when Messner chambers the USP in a car. During the shootout, Messner is seen doing frequent reloads. After Sharice Watters fires her sniper rifle at the FBI, Messner throws his USP at the window after depleting the magazine. He is seen unloading the magazine at the end of the film. In the so-called "Cowboy" ending (seen on the DVD release), Messner uses the USP to do a double tap on two targets.
