SIG-Sauer P226

The SIG-Sauer P226 is carried by all of Massachusetts State Police (MSP) officers in the film, including Sergeant Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon), Detective Brown (Anthony Anderson), Staff Sergeant Sean Dignam (Mark Wahlberg) and numerous other characters.

Note: In real life, the P226 has been standard-issue for the MSP members since 1987. However, during the scene where Colin is sitting in a class on ballistics while at the academy, the instructor mentions that the department's service pistols are chambered for 9mm hollow-point rounds. This is a slight inaccuracy, the MSP have been using the .40 S&W version of the P226 since the mid-1990s (and more recently switched to the double-action-only DAK model, whereas the guns in the film are SA/DA models).

-The [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P226|SIG-Sauer P226]] or [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P228|SIG-Sauer P228]] is used by all of the Massachusetts State Police officers in the movie, including [[Matt Damon]] as Sergeant Colin Sullivan, [[Anthony Anderson]] as Detective Brown, and numerous other characters. (NOTE: The actual gun used by Matt Damon is currently on display at the National Firearms Museum located at the NRA Headquarters in Fairfax, VA, and it is in fact a SIG-Sauer P228, not a P226).

-In real life, the P226 has been standard-issue for the Massachusetts State Police since 1987. However, during the scene where Collin is sitting in a class on ballistics while at the academy, the instructor mentions that the department's service pistols are chambered for 9mm hollow-point rounds. This is a slight inaccuracy; the Staties have been using the .40 S&W version of the P226 since the mid-1990s (and more recently switched to the double-action-only DAK model, whereas the guns in the movie are SA/DA models).
+==SIG-Sauer P228==
+In some scenes, the [[SIG-Sauer P228]] is carried by Sergeant Colin Sullivan ([[Matt Damon]]). While the above screencaps all show what appear to be P226 pistols rather than P228s, it is possible P228s were also used as standby guns.

 ==Astra A-100==
+Although the [[SIG-Sauer P226]] is standard-issue for the Massachusetts State Police (both in the film and in real life), but a close-up of Colin Sullivan ([[Matt Damon]]) firing his weapon at the academy reveals an [[Astra A-100]]. This pistol looks similar to the SIG-Sauer pistols, but it is a very different weapon. When Billy Costigan ([[Leonardo DiCaprio]]) is seen training on firearms at the academy, he also seems to be using this same pistol (probably the same prop gun).
