End of Days

End of Days is a 1999 supernatural thriller directed by Peter Hyams (The Presidio). Set at the end of the twentieth century, the film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Jericho Cane, a burnt-out private security specialist who finds himself protecting a young woman from a man who may embody the ultimate evil and then bring about the end of the world. The film prominently features several models of the Glock pistol, including one of the earliest appearances in a film of the Glock 34. The film's cast includes Gabriel Byrne, Kevin Pollak, Robin Tunney, and Rod Steiger.

==Glock 34==
Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzenegger) carries a third generation Glock 34 as his sidearm throughout most of the film. Since this movie was filmed in 1998 and released in 1999, the Glock 34 was a brand new handgun at the time and is what is considered a "Hero Gun", a gun released exclusively for a film to advertise it. When the priests in the church try to explain to Jericho about the Devil and God, he remarks, "Between your faith and my Glock 9mm, I take my Glock.".
==Glock 26==
Jericho Cane keeps a pair of Glock 26 subcompact 9x19mm pistols hidden in his sleeves on unseen clips, ready to whip out in a seconds notice. It would appear Jericho has a liking for Glock pistols. In real life, Schwarzenegger is a noted fan of Glocks, which are made in his home country of Austria. Prior to End of Days, he had used Glocks in True Lies and Eraser, and would go on to use Glocks in most of his later films.
==Glock 17==
After Jericho has his Glock 34 taken away by Satan (Gabriel Byrne), he goes to the security company armory and grabs a Glock 17 3rd Generation to use as his sidearm for the rest of the film. When fleeing Satan on the subway, Christine York (Robin Tunney) asks if she can help and Jericho quickly teaches her how to use the Glock and gives it to her. Since the Glock 3rd Generation was brand new at the time as well, this is another "Hero Gun". Starting to see a pattern with the 9mm Glocks here?
==Glock 19==
The officer seen standing next to Detective Margie Francis (CCH Pounder) is often seen armed with a Glock 19. Det. Francis herself is seen using this gun to point at Jericho during Satan's ceremony before Jericho kills her. By now, the film has pretty much advertised every 9x19mm Glock in the series, though the Glock 19's seen on-screen are the older 2nd-generation models, evidenced by the lack of accessory rails on the frame.
==Heckler & Koch P7M13==
Jericho's partner Bobby Chicago (Kevin Pollak) uses a double stack stainless Heckler & Koch P7M13 as his sidearm in the film.
==Beretta 92FS==
One of the knights of the Catholic church shoots at Jericho and Chicago in Christine's house with a Beretta 92FS. One of the police guarding The Man at the beginning of the film is seen using one too.
At the security company's arsenal, a rack of pistols is seen filled mainly with Berettas, and some unidentified handguns.
==Smith & Wesson Model 66 Snub==
When Thomas is grabbed off the roof by Jericho, both suspended by a wire, Thomas draws a Smith & Wesson Model 66 snub and fires at him. He tries to use it to shoot Jericho in the subway but Jericho shoots him in the legs and he drops it.
==Smith & Wesson Model 649==
Detective Margie Francis (CCH Pounder) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 649 as her sidearm in the film.
==Ruger Mk II suppressed==
One of the thugs seen in the flashback in which Jericho's family is killed uses a Ruger Mk II Pistol fitted with a suppressor. The actor playing this thug is Sven-Ole Thorsen, who is good friends with Arnold Schwarzenegger and has made numerous cameos in Arnold's films. You might recognize him as Gutzon in The Quick and the Dead (1995) and the Mongolian guy wielding two machine guns in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.

==Heckler & Koch MP5A3==
Before going to face Satan (Gabriel Byrne), Jericho goes to the security company's arsenal and grabs a Heckler & Koch MP5A3 fitted with an RM Equipment M203PI grenade launcher. In order to mount the grenade launcher a special "Interbar" mount is used which replaces the handguard of the weapon. The mount also incorporates a large muzzle brake which serves a dual purpose of providing a front attachment point for the grenade launcher, and protecting it from the muzzle flash of the MP5. Jericho uses the MP5 in combination with the Blackhawk Chalker Sling, a particular system of tactical weapons transport designed by a former Navy SEAL. A regular MP5A3 is seen wielded by an NYPD ESU officer in the subway tunnel near the beginning of the film.

==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
Several Heckler & Koch MP5K's are seen on a rack in the security company's arsenal.
=Other=
==RM Equipment M203PI==
Fitted under Jericho's MP5A3 is an RM Equipment M203PI grenade launcher. Before leaving the arsenal, Jericho is seen grabbing three fictional "40mm" rounds, two of which are yellow and one of which is red. Based on how they are seen used in the film, the yellow rounds explode on impact while the red round has a time-delayed fuse. Although it is not shown, if you listen carefully you can hear him grabbing a fourth grenade (the one he loads in the church before discarding the MP5 altogether).
=Rifles=
==IMBEL M964 A1 ParaFAL==
Thomas Aquinas (Derrick O'Connor) uses an IMBEL M964 A1 ParaFAL mounted with a scope to try to assassinate The Man (Gabriel Byrne) near the beginning of the film, but Jericho saves the man and gets shot in the vest. While Jericho's vest appears to be soft body armor that would have been pierced by a .308 round, Bobby's knocks on the vest to make it sound like there's a ballistic plate underneath. Aquinas abandons the gun when it malfunctions.
==Colt Commando CAR-15==
Unknown Colt Commando CAR-15 rifles can be seen on a rack in the arsenal.
==Heckler & Koch SR9-TC==
Two Heckler & Koch SR9-TC are seen on a rack in the security company's arsenal. They are assumed to be SR9-TCs because they look to have PSG-style buttstocks.
=Shotguns=
==Remington 870 Sawed-Off==
One of the thugs in Jericho's flashback uses a sawed-off Remington 870.
==Mossberg 500==
Several Mossberg 500 shotguns are seen on a rack in the security company's arsenal.
