-Carried by Jake (Jason Statham) during the collection scene when Avi asked him to shoot Fred (Togo Igawa) in the knees. During the close up of the firearm the insignia of the Taurus is clearly seen. The pistol was never fired as it was not loaded.
+==CZ-75==
+During the alleyway hit, Jake's Number Two man and driver use [[CZ-75]]s to little effect.

+== Glock 18 ==
+Stammering hitman Sorter ([[Mark Strong]]) carries a genuine [[Glock 18]] as his primary weapon. He uses it with a suppressor in the restaurant shootout and on full auto when he protects Jake's brother and niece.

+[[Image:Glock 18 Sorter 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|After hearing mooks above him, Sorter loads a 33-round magazine into his Glock 18.]]
+== Walther PPK==
+Jake Green ([[Jason Statham]]) can be seen using a [[Walther PPK]] twice. He draws one on the doctor when he confirms what Zach and Avi said, and holds it on Dorothy Macha ([[Ray Liotta]]), debating whether or not to kill him.
+[[Image:WaltherPPK.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Walther PPK - 9x17mm]]

-== HK MP5KA4 ==
+==Smith and Wesson Model 36==
+Avi ([[Andre Benjamin]]) pistol whips Jake with a [[Smith and Wesson Model 36]] after he dry-fires a gun at him.
+[[Image:S&W 36.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Smith and Wesson Model 36 - .38 Special]]
+[[Image:S&W Chief Special Avi.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Avi holds up his Model 36 before he whips Jake out.]]
-Used by Zach (Vincent Pastore) during the alley shootout. This firearm is a variant to the widely used MP5. The MP5KA4 is a shortened version and is easily concealable, the "K" stands for Kurtz which in german means short. In the film the firearm used is featured with a 30-round magazine, the firearm below however is attached with a 15-round magazine. Zach used it to cover Jake as he is urging him to enter his car.
+== Mini Uzi ==
+Sorter uses a suppressed [[Mini Uzi]] in the hit on Macha's rival, Lord John.
+[[Image:MiniUzi 01.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Mini-Uzi 9mm]]

+[[Glock 17]]s can be seen briefly in the hands of Jake ([[Jason Statham]]) and Avi ([[André Benjamin]]).

-== Glock 18 ==
+== Beretta 92FS ==
+A [[Beretta 92FS]] is used by one of Jake's bodyguards and by Macha's head mook.
+[[Image:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Beretta 92FS]]
+[[Image:Beretta 92fs bodyguard 2.jpg|thumb|none|600px|One of Jake's bodyguards fires at Sorter before he is cut down.]]
+[[Image:Beretta 92fs Henchman 1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|One of Macha's main goons about to take Sorter out using a Beretta 92FS.]]
-This select fire pistol is used by Sorter (Mark Strong) to clear Jake's brother's house Billy of Macha's henchment including Paul (Terence Maynard). Sorter uses the Glock as both single shot as well as full auto.
+== Smith and Wesson Military and Police ==
+A snub-nosed [[Smith & Wesson Model 10|Smith & Wesson Military and Police]] appears very briefly in the hands of one of Macha's many mooks.
+[[Image:S&W MP Rev.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Smith and Wesson Military and Police - .38 Special]]

+== Makarov PM ==
+Macha ([[Ray Liotta]]) borrows a [[Makarov PM]] from one of his bodyguards to finish off a wounded assassin sent by Lord John.
+[[Image:Makarov PM.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Makarov PM - 9x18mm]]

+[[Image:Unknown pistol 2 rev.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Macha fires at the assassin, who blew off one of his fingers.]]
+== SIG-Sauer P228 ==
+After the hit on Jake in the alleyway; Sorter cradles a [[SIG-Sauer P228]] and removes a suppressor while in disbelief over his missing Jake three times. It is replaced by a [[Glock 18]] after this scene. One of Macha's bodyguards also carries a SIG during the restaurant hit.
+[[Image:Sig-Sauer-P228.jpg|thumb|none|300px|SIG-Sauer P228 - 9x19mm.]]
+[[File:Revolver_SIG.jpg|600px|thumb|none|"But... but I never miss..." Sorter mumbles as he inspects the suppressor.]]
+[[File:Revolver_SIG 2.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Macha's head bodyguard holds him down as he looks for the assassin, unaware Sorter shot her (albeit non-fatally).]]
-== Walther PPK==
+== Remington 870 ==
-Brandished by Jake during his visit to the doctor regarding his perceived rare blood disorder and the scene when he visited Macha's bed chamber. I have to admit I'm not fully sure whether it is the Walther PPK he was carrying in both scenes. It could also be the Makarov PM. I'm inserting both pictures below. If anybody knows for sure which pistol it is please feel free to edit.
+Various [[Remington 870]] models appear throughout the film.
