Salt is a 2010 action film directed by Philip Noyce (Clear and Present Danger) and starring Angelina Jolie as Evelyn Salt, a CIA agent who finds herself being accused of being a Russian sleeper agent. She finds herself questioning her loyalties as she goes on the run to clear her name.
The following weapons were used in the film Salt:
WARNING! MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P229
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a SIG-Sauer P229 in multiple scenes set in the President’s Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), and most notably in the film’s final climactic battle sequence between Evelyn and CIA Agent Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber). The SIG 229 was also the primary weapon used by Agent Peabody (Chiwetel Ejiofor) throughout the film.
TRIVIA: During the filming of the final battle sequence between Salt and Winter, Ms. Jolie sustained a minor injury on the set and had to be rushed to the hospital. The crew continued filming POV shots until she returned. The on set armorer stood in for Ms. Jolie in several shots to help Liev Shrieber establish a realistic line of sight and also fired the Sig 229 in an additional scene where the gun had to be fired to create a muzzle flash at the edge of the camera frame (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun; also see their sales page for the screen used SIG 229, here.)
Beretta 92F
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a Beretta 92F pistol in the pivotal sequence aboard the Russian barge when Salt meets with the evil mastermind Orlov (Daniel Olbrychski) and his group of Russian “K-A Program” agents. After her loyalty is tested, Orlov reveals the details of his master plan to her right before she escapes using this weapon to fight her way off of the barge. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun; also see their sales page for the actual screen used Beretta 92F, here).
Glock 19
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) carries a Glock 19 pistol in multiple scenes during the sequence that takes place in the crypt underneath St. Bart’s cathedral in New York when Evelyn goes after the President of Russia. She uses this weapon notably during the scene where Salt shoots the cathedral organ. The weapon is featured in one of the official studio trailers for the movie, and she can also be seen holding a version of this Glock in a promotional image on the official website. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun; also see their sales page for the actual screen used Glock 19, here.)
SIG-Sauer P232
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a SIG-Sauer P232 pistol in multiple scenes throughout the film, and the gun first appears onscreen when she returns home and retrieves it from its hiding place underneath a table in her apartment before using it in the extended freeway chase sequence near the beginning of the film. The gun appears again on the bed of her hotel room when she colors her hair to change her appearance, and also during the sequence that takes place in the crypt underneath St. Bart’s cathedral in New York when Evelyn goes after the President of Russia. Scenes from the sequence are also featured in two of the official studio trailers for the film. (IMFDB thanks The Golden Closet for providing the documentation on this gun; also see their sales page for the actual screen used SIG 232, here.)
