Info about this custom shotgun: Wilson Combat has been given permission by Smith & Wesson to modify the M-3000 and sell those modified versions. Wilson cuts off the barrel to 7.9 inches (and other barrel lengths are available at customer request), shortens the action bars and magazine tube, moves the barrel mount back, and adds a forward handgrip on the pump slide which can also be folded flush with the rest of the pump slide if desired. The resulting weapon, called the Executive Protection Shotgun, uses synthetic Pachmayr Vindicator furniture and has no buttstock. Despite the short barrel, the shot spread is not extreme due to the tight choke used on the barrel; however, muzzle blast and noise are extreme. Of course, the Executive Protection Shotgun requires a lot of taxes and red tape to legally acquire, and is therefore used only by certain bodyguards and military and government concerns.

Miami Vice - Season 4
The following weapons were used in the fourth season of the television series Miami Vice:
Sonny Crockett (Don Johnson) carries a Smith & Wesson 645 as his primary weapon during the third and fourth seasons of the show. At the time, it was from Smith & Wesson's brand new line of second generation handguns, as the producers wanted to keep up Crockett carrying a State of the Art pistol.
Walker Monroe (Ving Rhames) uses a blued Hi-Power in "Child's Play" (the Browning Hi-Power is also a central part of the episode).

These Hi-Powers feature elongated bushings different from Hi-Powers Made before 1973 and after the MK II Series.Error creating thumbnail: File missingWalker Monroe (Ving Rhames) with his Hi-Power drawn while being pursued by Crockett in "Child's Play". He is seen with an IMI Uzi before switching to the Hi-Power. Trivia Ving Rhames also played Georges in "The Maze" SE1 episode.
Rojas (Geno Silva) uses a blued Beretta Cheetah in "The Cows of October". Charles Hatch (John Finn) the hired mercenary carries a Beretta Cheetah as back up to his 92F in an ankle holster in "Hell Hath No Fury".
FBI Agent Timothy Anderson (Harry Shearer) also uses a Beretta 92F in "The Cows of October". Charles Hatch (John Finn) carries a 92F as his main sidearm in "Hell Hath No Fury". Another man is seen firing one at the shooting range in the same episode.
The Detonics Scoremaster is used by several characters throughout the season. Speed Stiles (Oliver Platt) is seen handling one while on display in "Baseballs of Death". A thug fires Scoremaster during the rip-off at the stadium in "Indian Wars". Cyrus (Gary Basaraba) carries a Detonics Scoremaster throughout in "Honor Among Thieves?".
Charles Hatch (John Finn) uses a Magnum Research Lone Eagle in addition to the Beretta 92F and Cheetah in "Hell Hath No Fury". The Magnum Research Lone Eagle is a single shot hunting pistol but is not seen much in media unlike the Thompson Contender which is more prominently featured. Given the distance Hatch has to use it (less than 50 yards) and much smaller size compared to full size sniper rifle it makes for an ideal choice.
A Custom Wilson Combat Smith & Wesson 3000 with a pistol grip and vertical foregrip is carried by Det. Ricardo Tubbs (Philip Michael Thomas), in the 3rd season of the show.

An SRT member uses an M16A1 with A2 handguards in "Child's Play".
Error creating thumbnail: File missingM16A1 with A2 style handguards - 5.56x45mm. Putting the distinctive A2 handguards on the older rifle was a method used by Movie/TV armorers to simulate A2 rifles when M16A1s were the only ones available. The same thing has been done vice-versa, Using M16A2's with A1 handguards for Vietnam War B Movies.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAn SRT member with a M16A1 in "Child's Play"Error creating thumbnail: File missingAnother view showing the receiver.Error creating thumbnail: File missingM16A1 with 20 round magazine - 5.56x45mm. What distinguishes it from the original M16 was the addition of a raised rib around the magazine release button, changing of the forward Receiver pins, and the addition of the forward assist button on the upper receiver.Error creating thumbnail: File missing"Baseballs of Death"
