US military personnel including Major Salt (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and Brigadier General Billy Ford (Morgan Freeman) as well as numerous Army soldiers carry and use the Beretta 92FS standing in for the M9.
Upon closer examination, some of the M16A2 rifles carried by the US troops were MGC M16 replica rifles that were fitted with M16A2 handguards and "birdcage" flash hiders to make them look like M16A2s.
Some troops carry an XM177E2 thought most of them appear to be the later version plastic MGC Colt Commando (replica copy of the XM177-E2) that was sold just prior to the rise in popularity of Airsoft versions.
A European (mostly likely British) mercenary is seen firing an British L1A1 SLR (Self Loading Rifle) at the beginning of the film (note the foresight ears and the barrel on the rifle). An African soldier is also seen using one.
