The following weapons were used in the television series Miami Vice:
Sonny Crockett (Don Johnson) uses a Bren Ten in the second season of the show. It was essentially a beefed-up CZ 75 chambered for the original 10mm Norma Auto cartridge which differs slightly in case length from later 10mm rounds. This round was HOT, and consequently damaged the guns. In the '80s this was a new cartridge, but is rarely used in modern day. The company of Dornaus& Dixon was an ill-fated one, and since the producers of the Miami Vice-series would not use discontinued guns, it was replaced with the S&W 645 auto pistol
"The two guns were ordered specifically for the show by Michael Mann's production company. They did not come off the assembly line, but were built by Tom Dornaus personally. Tom did the initial blank conversion, if you want to call it that, but actually these two guns were built from the ground up specifically for firing blanks. He used major components which were not deemed suitable for production guns, but were perfectly adequate for a blank gun. The two guns were Standard Models with the old style rear sight assembly and no trigger stop screw. All external markings were standard Bren Ten. The only difference being that the guns had recoil springs and barrels designed to fire .45 ACP blanks. The barrel does not carry any caliber designation roll mark however. Because the ejection port on a Bren Ten is so large I don't believe that it had to be enlarged to accommodate the elongated .45 ACP blank cases. (Remember that the blank cases are in the shape of a loaded round WITH bullet seated.) Michael Mann requested specifically that the slides be a light color (hard chrome) for enhanced visibility. The hard chrome work was done by a small firm in the Huntington Beach area at that time. Both guns carry a special serial number. One of the guns is in the possession of a major collector in Pennsylvania and the other is owned by one of the show's producers, I believe. They weren't Marksmans or Standard Models with conversion kits. They were two specially built guns". from http://www.bren-ten.com/website/id5.html
Detonics Combatmaster
Sonny Crockett (Don Johnson) carries a Detonics Combatmaster as a backup gun, in an ankle holster. In reality the Detonics would have been a substantial handgun to carry in an ankle holster.
Det. Larry Zito (John Diehl) carries a Smith & Wesson 659 as his sidearm. Several other characters use them throughout the season as well.
Colt Trooper MK V
A 6-inch barrel version of the Colt Trooper MK V fitted with pachmayr grips is used by Lt. Castillo (Edward James Olmos) in "Bushido". If it was a Python it would have a full lug running under the barrel. The Mk V had the ventilated top barrel rib and the half lug for the ejector rod.
Detonics Scoremaster
Tubbs and Castillo both use Detonics Scoremasters in "The Prodigal Son" episode. Castillo also uses one in "Whatever Works". Several other characters throughout the series also use them.

A drug dealer carries a .44 AutoMag with him when meeting with Charlie Basset (Ted Nugent) in "Definitely Miami".
Colt Python
In "Definitely Miami", Clemente's messenger's revolver switches from a Smith & Wesson Model 29 to a Colt Python in a brief continuity error. It is noted as so because in one shot his revolver has a half lug running under the barrel (S&W) and then a full lug (Colt). Also, in one shot it has a Bo Mar Rib on top of the barrel (S&W) and then a standard barrel with ribbing in the next shot (Colt).
Several characters throughout the season use Beretta 92Fs.

Several Colombian soldiers in the opening scene in "The Prodigal Son" are armed with Norinco Type 56-1 rifles, fitted with AKM style muzzle brakes to pass them off as AKMSs.

In "Bushido", it is equipped with a 90-round drum magazine and a large laser sight. One of Col. Maynard's (G. Gordon Liddy) thugs is also armed with a standard version (without the accessories) in "Back in the World".
Replica XM177 (CAR-15)
A DEA Agent can be seen with a MGC CAR-15 Replica slung over his back during the drug bust in "Back in the World", noted by it's flash hider. The fake forward assist is indicative of an MGC Replica CAR-15 Rifle.
