M1911A1
A nickel plated M1911A1 with ivory grips is wielded by militia leader Floyd Chisholm (Gailard Sartain). Dr. Wesley McClaren (Steven Seagal) also handles this weapon.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
Federal Agents and a militia man wield Heckler & Koch MP5A3s during the film.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1894
Dr. Wesley McClaren (Steven Segal), Frank (L.Q. Jones), and a militia man wield a Winchester Model 1894 in the film.
Assault Rifles
AKMS
The AKMS is used by various militia men during the film.
M16A2
Both militia members and U.S. Army soldiers wield M16A2s through the film. Much like the XM177s in the film, which are actually Olympic Arms K3B clones, these rifles are also likely the Olympic Arms K4B.
Olympic Arms K3B CAR
Many U.S. Army soldiers and militia members in the film use CAR-15-style rifles which resemble the XM177E2. Upon close inspection, these are actually the Olympic Arms K3B CAR, which is the Olympic Arms commercial XM177-pattern clone sold in the U.S. until the mid-1990s. Notably, they all feature M16A2-style receivers (not found on any genuine XM177 variation) and long "mock" XM177 flash hiders that lack sound suppression capabilities.
Machine Guns
M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle
Frank (L.Q. Jones) forgoes his Winchester Model 1894 for a M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle when the militia arrive at the ranch.
Shotguns
Remington 870
The Remington 870 is wielded by a couple militia men in the film. In a courtroom scene early in the film, Floyd Chisholm (Gailard Sartain) is seen sawing down the barrel on a Remington 870 on a videotape played before the court, which is used as evidence to charge him with a National Firearms Act violation.
Benelli M3 Super 90
Pogue (Silas Weir Mitchell) uses a Benelli M3 Super 90 when the militia storm the hospital.
