In Part 2, a MAC-10 is used by Ham Tyler (Michael Ironside), who introduces the Resistance to Teflon-coated ammunition which pierces the previously impenetrable armor of the Visitors. Tyler's associate Chris Farber (Mickey Jones) also uses the weapon.
IMI Uzi
An Uzi submachine gun can be seen when Caleb and Elias Taylor were placing various Resistance weapons into a washing machine in the laundry of the Los Angeles Medical Center.
