Trivia: When Brandon Lee was in Sweden doing promotion for ''Rapid Fire'', he filmed a cameo as a favor to director Richard Holm. This cameo, in the Swedish film ''Sex, lögner & videovåld'' (''Sex, Lies and Video Violence''), released six years after his death, would be his final screen credit.

The following weapons were used in the film Rapid Fire:
Agents Daniels (Quentin O'Brien) and Anderson (Jeff McCarthy) use suppressed Taurus PT99AFS pistols to try to kill Jake Lo. Jake later takes Anderson's. It is clear that these are PT99s and not PT92s because they have adjustable rear sights.
Antonio Serrano (Nick Mancuso) uses a two-tone Micro Uzi for part of the film. (It appears to be the same customized Micro Uzi from Total Recall and Predator 2.) Jake later takes it away from him.
