The following guns are used in the television show Flashpoint
Warning: Some descriptions contain spoilers. Information is destined to change and add on as the show progresses.
Remington 700PSS
Snipers Ed Lane, Juliana, and Sam Braddock use Remington 700PSS rifles chambered in .308 caliber(Despite their stock slung ammo being .30-06) and they are fitted with scopes with false reticules.
Luger P08
The hostage taker in the first episode shoots a woman in the back with a Luger P08 and holds another woman at gunpoint with it before being shot by Ed Lane's sniper rifle.
H&K MP5A3
Sgt. Gregory Parker regularly has two or more officers armed with H&K MP5A3s with tri-rails and forward grips at his side. Several other officers use them as well.
Glock 22
Juliana pulls her issued Glock 22 sidearm on Sam Braddock after he comments on her Remington 700 and reaches into his coat, making her think he is drawing a gun. An officer draws his Glock on the deranged man in the pilot episode, when he first takes a woman hostage. Sam Braddock also uses one in the second episode for an automated CQB test.
M4A1
Several officers use M4A1 carbine assault rifles as standard-issue weapons. Juliana uses one in the second episode to watch over a father with a gun in the hospital. It is fitted with a red-dot site but when she looks through it, it incorrectly has a sniper reticule instead. The props weapons used are not the similar Canadian-made Diemaco C8 carbine, which would be more appropriate for a Canadian SWAT team to use, since Diemaco (now Colt Canada) does not sell its weapons to civilian companies (including the armorers who worked on the show).
Smith and Wesson Model 39
When a man becomes enraged that his daughter can't get a new heart, he draws a Smith and Wesson Model 39 off a hospital guard (which is strange because the model 39 isn't issued anymore) and begins a standoff. He accidentally scores a non-fatal shot on an officer after less lethal is ordered to stop him when he reveals the safety is on, and then turns it off and hits an officers vest.
Taurus Judge .410/.45 LC
In the 3rd episode dialogue, this revolver Kennon carried is called the "Jury", street name. "Takes 5 rounds, shotgun, single bore." Exact lines. It is actually a Taurus Judge firing the very slim .410 shotgun round and can also except .45 LC rounds.
Smith & Wesson 4506
In the 4th episode, this gun was used by the outraged woman.
C.A.W 40mm Revolving Launcher
The 6 shot 40 mm C.A.W. rotarary grenade launcher for Law enforcement first seen in episode 4 is used by Sam Braddock. Wasn't fired.
- I won't leave this message here long but I'd just like everyone to know it was pretty hard to classify this grenade launcher for me. Also, I will continue to screen cap guns as the show progresses but I can't always be able to classify them 100% of the time(I got very lucky with this launcher.) so help is always useful if needed. Uploading these screencaps is hard and time consuming but I feel it is worth it so people can see, so I'll continue my work for you all. Not to be rude but appreciation wouldn't hurt :). I'm Gunmaster45 if you want to discuss anything.
- I may be wrong, but that looks kinda like an older model DefTech launcher to me.
- I don't think so, seeing the pics on a brighter screen, these look identical(except lack of sights on the non-screencap pic) Could I see a pic of this Deftech? I can't find it anywhere. Send me the link in my discussion section.
