Sterling SMG
Sterling SMGs are used by British forces as well; some of this footage would later be reused for Season 2 of the series JAG.
Armalite AR-18
An IRA member uses an Armalite AR-18 to threaten Gerry Conlon (Daniel Day-Lewis).
Umarex GPDA
The pistol seen pulled on Gerry appears to be a Browning BDA, but upon closer inspection, could be a Umarex GPDA replica.
Remington 870 shotgun
When the trial begins the police guarding the court house are seen with Remington 870 shotguns.
Smith & Wesson Model 10 HB
During the riot and later arrest the officers/military are seen armed with Smith & Wesson Model 10 HB revolvers.
