The following weapons appear in the film S.W.A.T.:

AKM/AKMS

One of the first guns seen in the film, the AKM and AKMS appear in the hands of bank robbers in the opening scenes of the film which is based off the infamous North Hollywood Bank shootout (described in greater detail in 44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout) where a pair of AK-toting bank robbers dressed in heavy body armor wreaked havoc on the undergunned Los Angeles Police Department. Several AKM's and AKMS's also appear being used by gang members who ambush a police convoy in an attempt to liberate the main villain of the film. Two of the AKM's used by the robbers have high-capacity drum magazines (designed for the RPK light machine gun) instead of the standard 30-round box magazine.

Beretta 92FS

The film features Beretta 92FS pistols as the standard-issue sidearms of L.A.P.D. Patrolmen, which in the opening scenes are totally outclassed by the assault rifles and heavy body armor wielded by the bank robbers, prompting the mobilization of the SWAT team. One of the main villain's cronies is also seen using one fitted with a silencer when attempting to liberate him from a Sheriff's Department inmate transport bus. Several officers playing the role of terrorists during a training mission are also armed with Berettas, these modified to fire paintballs and identified by the orange markings on the bottom of the magazines.

Remington 870

During the bank robbery scene, several L.A.P.D. patrolmen can be seen trying in vain to take down the robbers with Remington 870 shotguns which, like their Beretta pistols, are no match for the automatic rifles and heavy body armor of the robbers. Some of the gang members during the convoy ambush can also be seen with Remington 870's.

M4A1 carbine

One of the primary weapons of the L.A. Police SWAT team in the film, the SWAT team as well as Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner) and his men use M4A1 carbines fitted with ACOG Compact scopes on the carry handles and Surefire M500AB weaponlights on the handguards.

Another weapon in the SWAT team's arsenal, the Heckler & Koch MP5A2's with Navy trigger group wielded by the team are equipped with Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights.

Kimber Custom TLE II

Another weapon commonly used by the SWAT team is a variant of the M1911A1 pistol known as the Kimber Custom TLE II made by Kimber Manufacturing, Inc. Like all the other weapons used by SWAT, it too has a weaponlight (a Surefire 310R, which can be distinguished from the 610R by the minimal protrusion past the muzzle). The most notable scene involving this weapon is when Officer T.J. McCabe (Josh Charles) uses one to commit suicide rather than be arrested by the team he had betrayed. During a training mission simulating a hijacked airliner, the team uses several of these weapons modified to fire paintballs, identifiable by the orange markings on the grip and weaponlight. During the final shootout on the 6th Street bridge, Alex Montel (Oliver Martinez) can be seen brandishing one, shouting in vain for his would-be liberators to "Give [him] more ammo" when he runs dry. One of Gamble's men also threatens the driver of a subway train with one of these pistols. Both Montel and Gamble's men use TLE II's without weaponlights.

SIG-Sauer P220 Sport

When Gamble frees Alex Montel from SWAT's custody, he can be seen carrying a SIG-Sauer P220 Sport as his weapon of choice, first using it to shoot Officer Michael Boxer (Brian Van Holt) in the neck nearly killing him and then in the final fight with his former partner Officer Jim Street (Colin Farrell). During the fight, Street manages to eject the magazine and get ahold of the pistol, Gamble tauntingly holding up the ejected magazine, to which Street replies that there's still a round in the chamber before ejecting it and discarding the pistol, preferring to finish the fight hand-to-hand instead.

Benelli M3 Super 90

Yet another of SWAT's weapons in the film is the Benelli M3 Super 90 shotgun. In addition to a flashlight-mounting foregrip and pistol-grip stock, it is also tricked out with extra shotshell holders on the right side of the stock and left side of the reciever for a total of 12 extra rounds of both buckshot and slugs. During the bank robbery scene at the beginning of the film, one of these shotguns is fitted with a special muzzle brake and used as a breeching weapon to blow the lock off an air conditioning vent cover in order to gain access to the inside of the bank via the roof.

Several SWAT snipers are seen using Remington Model 700PSS sniper rifles fitted with folding bipods during the film. First during the bank robbery scene where SWAT sniper Sgt. Yamoto (Daniel Ichikawa) takes out one of the robbers trying to start the getaway car, and again trying to locate the source of the shots that took out the police chopper. The team is also seen practicing with them during their training, shooting playing cards at long range in a bizarre game of poker, these rifles featuring a camouflage paint scheme as shown below.
