	In one of the more notable scenes of the film, the T-800 engages the police assembled outside the Cyberdyne building with a [[~~Handheld~~ M134 Minigun]], destroying the police cars while leaving the police themselves unharmed (the police helicopter pilot namechecks the weapon by hysterically shouting, ''"That's a damn Minigun!"''). In the screenplay, the Terminator was supposed to use a [[MAC-10]] to shoot at the police, but shortly before filming, James Cameron decided to revisit the gun used in ''[[Predator]]'', and the scene was accordingly re-written as a longer and more dramatic shootout. The gun in T2 is the same one from ''[[Predator]]'' and used the same custom Y-frame as the previous picture, but with some modifications. The modified [[M60 machine gun\|M60]] foregrip assembly was removed in its entirety. To replace it a "chainsaw" grip was mounted on the Y-frame and the M16-style carry handle was removed. This style of carry has become the "standard" for handheld Miniguns in movies and video games. The Y-frame still attaches to the weapon's mounting lugs, though with no carry handle, the weapon lost its sling attachment point, forcing Arnold to carry all the weight of the weapon in his hands. In order to fire it, the Terminator carries a duffel bag full of ammo and possibly the batteries as well, as there are some shots that show what appear to be cables leading from the gun and into the duffel bag. It is also possible that the duffel bag was simply used to hide the fact that the cables trailed off set to the power supply and gun control unit, as on ''[[Predator]]''.

The last instance a Colt Commando is used is when the Terminator takes a Mock Sporter II and climbs onto the front of the liquid nitrogen truck the T-1000 is driving and fires it through the windshield. James Cameron commented how foolish this stunt was because it was done exactly as it is seen in the film - from a moving truck with no wires attached.

	Sarah Connor ([[Linda Hamilton]]) is seen inspecting and later taking one of her own [[XM177\|Colt "Commando"-type]] CAR-15 style carbine (in reality a [[Colt Sporter II Carbine]] mocked up as Colt Model 629) out of the armory from the Mojave desert in an attempt to eliminate Miles Dyson ([[Joe Morton]]) when she learns he started the project which lead to the machines being built, the rifle however later appears to have been replaced by the [[Colt Model 653]] (as evidenced by the 16 inch barrel and full magazine fencing lower receiver) when she arrives at Dyson's residence (which is either due to continuity error or the Colt 653 is simply standing in for the mock Commando Sporter I carbine Sarah intended to use for her mission). During the incident at the Cyberdyne System Headquarters, some of the LAPD SWAT officers are seemingly armed with these similar mock Colt Commando rifles, notably one SWAT officer carries one fitted with a Colt 4x20 scope during the raid and during the sequence when they open fire on the Terminator in the lobby. When Sarah, John, and the T-800 try to escape in a SWAT van as the T-1000 pursues in a police chopper, Sarah uses two Commando carbines, one a mock Commando Sporter II the other a slab-side AR-15 Sporter I carbine converted to look like a Commando as well. The last instance a Colt Commando is used is when the Terminator takes a Mock Sporter II and climbs onto the front of the liquid nitrogen truck the T-1000 is driving and fires it through the windshield. James Cameron commented how foolish this stunt was because it was done exactly as it is seen in the film - from a moving truck with no wires attached. All the CAR-15 style rifles appear to be based on or are the same weapons used from the movie [[The Dogs of War]].
