The following guns were used in the film The Jackal:
Browning M2HB (mocked up as KPV heavy machine gun)
The Jackal (Bruce Willis) buys a heavy machine gun from his contacts via online called a "Polish ZSU-33 14.5mm", which is in reality a Browning M2HB mocked up as a KPV heavy machine gun in 14.5mm. Both guns have a cyclic rate of ~600RPM so how they got away saying it fired 1400RPM is unknown. The rounds Jackal uses are Depleted Uranium rounds, which he claims he uses for better "sprawl" on impact, even though in reality they are used because they are heavy i.e. more accurate. He notabley uses it twice in the film, once to kill Ian Lamont (Jack Black), the man who built the automated mount for him, and again to try to assassinate The First Lady (Tess Harper). The mocked up weapon was supplied by Stembridge Gun Rentals.
A standard non-mocked up Browning M2HB is seen mounted on a humvee in a military base.
Heckler & Koch MP5SD
A Heckler & Koch MP5SD is used by the Jackal (Bruce Willis) when he effortlessly dispatches two FBI Agents and Major Valentina Koslova (Diane Venora) in Isabella's home.
Glock 22
Special Agent Carter Preston (Sidney Poitier) uses a Glock 22 throughout the film, though never actually fired. Note: Carter Preston uses a SIG-Sauer P228 througout the film.
SIG-Sauer P228
Richard Gere uses a SIG-Sauer P228, a compact 9mm handgun, when he joins the FBI.
Beretta Cheetah
The main weapon of Major Valentina Koslova (Diane Venora) throughout the film is a Beretta Cheetah.
Makarov PM
Major Valentina Koslova (Diane Venora) uses a Makarov PM during the scenes in Moscow.
Beretta 92F
Fitted with suppressor, used by the Jackal.
H&K G3 SG-1
SG-1 with a normal G3 buttstock (cheekrest on top) and what appears to be a harris type bipod instead of the regular one. Semi auto only unlike a normal G3. Not a PSG-1 due to having iron sights.
