[[Image:FruitvaleStation_X26_03.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The X26 on Ingram's belt. The officer who actually shot Oscar Grant claimed in court that he believed that he was drawing his X26 to tase Oscar Grant, not his sidearm. This defense was rejected not only due to the weight and color difference between the X26 and the officer's sidearm, but the fact that his taser was on the left side of his body, as depicted here.]]

==SIG-Sauer P228==
Officer Ingram shoots Oscar Grant (Michael B. Jordan) with a [[SIG-Sauer P228]]. In reality, Oscar Grant was shot with a [[SIG-Sauer P226]] chambered in .40 S&W.
