Revision as of 16:30, 16 June 2008
The following guns were used in the ITV1 series Ultimate Force:
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The standard-issue weapons for the SAS unit Red Troop in the TV show are Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns, which are always seen with Surefire fore ends and tactical flashlights as well as the SEF-style lower receiver. These weapons are typically used in Red Troop's domestic hostage rescue missions.
The other SAS unit, Blue Troop, also use identical weapons, as do many Metropolitan Police SO-19 (now CO-19) constables throughout the show.
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
Red Troop also makes use of the suppressed Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 on some missions where maintaining a low profile is preferable in order to avoid alerting terrorists to their presence. These weapons are featured most prominently in Episode 2.5, "What in the Name of God" when Red Troop invades the stronghold of a Christian cult terrorist group to capture their leader.
SIG-Sauer P226
The SIG-Sauer P226 is the preferred sidearm of Red Troop and is used throughout the series. It is seen most prominently in Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" in the hands of Sgt. Henno Garvie (Ross Kemp), who use his P226 to take down several Kalashnikov-toting IRA terrorists during an ambush.
Accuracy International L96A1
Whenever Red Troop requires sniper support, the snipers are typically armed with Accuracy International L96A1 rifles in 7.62x51mm NATO.
Colt M1911 Commander
A Colt Commander is used by one of the bank robbers in Episode 1.1, "The Killing House".
Accuracy International AW50F
In Episode 1.2, "Just a Target", Jamie (Jamie Draven) goes undercover and joins a militant anti-globalization group which wants him to assassinate an international banker. The terrorists give him a huge .50 BMG Accuracy International AW50F long-range rifle, which none of them are able to fire accurately, and ask him to use it for the assassination. Jamie winds up using the gun to kill one of the terrorists at point-blank range, firing from the hip in a small room (in real life, doing this would cause anyone to go deaf).
CZ-75
CZ-75 pistols (both the original and the newer CZ-75B) appear in the hands of bad guys throughout the series.
Heckler & Koch HK33
Another weapon which appears regularly in the series is the Heckler & Koch HK33, and more specifically, the HK33A3 folding-stock variant. Red Troop typically uses these weapons with claw mounts and scopes as semi-automatic sniper rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" and 3.4, "Weapon of Choice"). They also appear in the hands of French special forces in Episode 2.1, "Communication".
Glock 17
Glock 17 pistols are used by some terrorists in the series. In Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", they are used by IRA terrorists as well as Royal Ulster Constabulary officers.
AK-47/AKM variations
Many AK-47 and AKM variants appear in the series in the hands of terrorists, rebel groups, and Third World armies. Red Troop also use AKs sometimes when they are out of ammunition for their own weapons, or when other weapons are not available. Typical of most Western productions, the Chinese Norinco Type 56-1 (AKMS) is the most frequently-seen Kalashnikov derivative in the series. Also common are Yugoslav Zastava M70B1 and M70B2 assault rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", and Henno also uses an M70B1 in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice").
Heckler & Koch MP5KA1
Heckler & Koch MP5K machine pistols appear in some episodes, such as Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", where Captain Caroline Walsh (Alex Reid) uses one to fire back at IRA terrorists during the ambush. The version seen in the show is always the "KA1" variation, a version designed for concealed carry (it lacks the H&K diopter sights in order to avoid getting snagged on clothing when being drawn quickly from beneath a jacket).
