- Done, for the most part. Some weapons haven't been properly ID and some don't have pictures from the site because they don't exist. -Excalibur
Pistols
Kimber Custom TLE II
Used by Jonas Blane, Mack Gerhardt, and Tom Ryan.
SIG Sauer P226
Used by Charles Grey, Hector Williams and Bob Brown. Bob routinely carries a full size Glock in season 1 before switching to this.
Glock 23
Seen in season 1 where Jonas Blaine's daughter took ahold up home. Blaine took her to the range to shoot.
Glock 17
Used by Bob in Season 1 before he switched over to the P226.
Wilson Combat 1911
Distinguished by the small circle insignia in the middle of the grip. Jonas carried this with him when he was on a mission in South East Asia. It is unclear if he got it back after it was taken away.
M1911A1
Belonging to Kim Brown. It looks like an old fashion 1911. Jonas gets one at the end of Season 2. Jonas also has a variant. Mack also has an old fashion 1911.
Beretta M92F
Has been seen in the hands of SWAT members, Unit members, and US military CID agents. Mack picked one off a biker when he lured them into a fight.
SIG P230
This could be a Mauser HSc or a SIG P230 (probably the latter, since the HSc hasn't been made in...heh heh...sixty-odd years)
Brixia 8mm Walther Blank Firing Pistol
In the story. Jonas took 2 of these out as a hidden weapon that he kept within a rat trap. He handed on to is wife before he made a disappearing act. I guess in story it's supposed to resemble a Walther TP or TPH.
I don't know dude...these look a lot like the Walther PP or PPK to me. If these images are from the episode I am thinking of (the finale of Season 1) my reaction, at the time, was "why is Joans carrying such a weak ass pistol as his sidearm???".
Nah, the Walthers don't have that little extra piece of metal extending from the trigger guard to the barrel. But, then again...
- It looks like a Walther PSM. It's like a PPK but with an extended trigger guard. Hammer looks like it too. -GM
- What is a Walther PSM? Did you mean Walther TP or TPH? PSM is a Russian pistol made by Izhevsk.
- That is a Brixia 8mm Walther Blank Firing Pistol. I just checked the lower image against the one I have. Brixia Arms used to make this type of blank gun about 10 years ago, but their quality was pretty bad. There 'might' be some available, but the majority of the 8mm theatrical blank firing PPKs on the market now are made by Kimar or Voltran. What tips it off, is the writing on the slide (it is identical to the markings on my Brixia Nickel plated Walther PPK theatrical blank gun) and the hole drilled in the top of the barrel (where the ejection port is). This hole allows the flash from the blank round to fire upwards since the barrel is blocked. Also the magazine is a thin single stack type that only holds those skinny 8mm blank rounds. ____MoviePropMaster2008
H&K USP
Seen in episode 1 of season 4. Used by Bob Brown.
The pistol in the foreground looks like a HK USP.
Remington 1866 Derringer
At the last episode of season 1, Jonas had it as a hidden weapon and in season 4 it was Bridgett Sullivan's backup weapon.
S&W J-Frame Model 60
This was seen at the season 2 finale. A hidden weapon by Mack which was then used by his wife to threaten him before he took it back.
Tokarev TT-33
The one seen in the series seems to be a chrome plated Tokarev 33 or some other copy.
Walther PPK
Likely a Makarov or Walther PPK seen once in the series at least.
Ruger mk. II Suppressed
Bob Brown was given this gun in his first mission in episode one and he used with great effect to take care of terrorists hiding in the woods. The weapon he had had a wooden grip.
.
Karh K9 M9098 Elite
Seen in season 4 episode 2.
Unknowns
- I'll look for it but I'm unclear on this gun.
- I'm not sure, either. Looks to me sort of like a compact Jericho variant, but I don't think it's that. I'll look for it in a bit.
Submachine Guns
H&K MP5A4
Everyone except Mack or Grey had been seen using MP5A4s. Grey usually is seen using the SD variant while Mack had been seen with the MP5K variant. In one episode, we saw an entire SWAT team armed with MP5A4s all had the Surefire dedicated forend weaponlight.
H&K MP5SD
Seen used by Jonas, Bob, and Grey on a few occasions. Notable in episode 1 of season 4. Though the ones in the first episode of season 4 might have just been regular MP5s with fake SD barrels because the sounds didn't sound like suppressed rounds. Either that or someone in the sound department forgot to edit the sound in that episode to be more quiet. Most of the MP5SDs in season 4, episode 1 were of the newer variants with the navy trigger group.
H&K MP5K
Jonas, Mack and Hector are seen using these. Jonas and Mack were seen using the newer Navy trigger group variant, while Hector was seen using one with the old "SEF" trigger group.

Sten
Uzi
A full size Uzi has been seen a few times.
Mini Uzi
Seen used by a Terrorist in the plane in season 1 episode 1.
MAC-10
In the hands of Mexican smugglers.
Cobray M11/9
Beretta PM12S
Smuggled into a diamond mine in season 2 episode 6 and used by Jonas and Hector.
Steyr SPP
Smuggled into a diamond mine in season 2 episode 6 by Hector and used by Bob Brown. It's the civilian verison of the TMP modified for full auto.
Škorpion vz. 61
Terrorists on the plane used this SMG
AP-9
Seen in the last episode of season 1.
- I think this is actually an AP-9, which is similar but not quite the same.
Assault Rifles
Colt M4A1 Carbine
Used by all members of the Unit, often with a 40mm M203 Grenade Launcher, and with an optical sight (normally the Trijicon 4x ACOG, Aimpoint CompM2 and/or EOTech 552 Holographic sight).
File:M4unit6.jpg File:M4unit7.jpg File:M4unit8.jpg File:M4unit9.jpg
M16 variants
Seen usually in the hands of non Unit members of the military like the Army in one episode. After Hector's death, Mack was seen cleaning and preparing Hector's M16, including attaching a bayonet.
In the photos below you can see the older fist version M16s.
Heckler & Koch HK416
One of the rifles that is used by the Unit members is the Heckler & Koch HK416 usually in the the D10RS sub-varient with a 10 inch barrel, with optical sights (normally the Trijicon 4x ACOG, Aimpoint CompM2 and/or EOTech 552 Holographic sight).
H&K G36C
Grey wielded on in the last episode of season 1.
SIG SG 552
Seen used by Jonas in the last episode of season 1. Hector also wield this weapon as well. Grey also had one also in the second episode of season 1.
FN FAL
Seen in the hands of Jonas and Hector in episode 2 of season 1. Jonas used iron sights while Hector had a scope. These were the full length FALs and one might of had a wooden stock. It was hard to tell.
AK variants
Everyone in the unit has used an AK in the series at least once. To hide their tracks they Unit members used AKs with suppressors in their mission in Iran. Most enemies have also used the many variants of AKs.
Sa vz. 58
FN F2000
Jonas uses it in season 2 episode 2. It was the tactical verison without the special optics and added with a scope.
FAMAS
Seen in the hands of French Soldiers at the season 1's finale. Also seen in the hands of soldiers in South East Asia.
Ruger Mini-14
Resting on a tree by one of the lookouts that Bob takes out in the first episode of the series. Also seen used by a man in episode 4 of season 1.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 "Cruiser"
Seen in "First Responders" (S1E1).
Benelli M3 Super 90
Seen in the first episode but were seen in the hands of National Guardsman and then in the hands of Hector and Grey.
Browning Citori
Jonas firing what looks like a Browning Citori.
Sawed off Double Barrel
Remington 870
Mack used this shotgun posing as a bird hunter in episode 4 of season 1. It was taken away when he was captured.
- You gotta learn your shotguns man. Go to MPM2008's 12 Gauge Pump Shotgun page. It shows you how to tell apart a Remington, Winchester, and Mossberg. He doesn't mention it but also try to note the differences between the ejection ports and distinct parts on them.
- Don't think it's a Rem 870. The second picture doesn't quite look like the 870 Express deer model.
Machine Guns
M240B (with no heat shield aka USMC style)
First and second images seen in use by French UN forces and the 3rd and 4th are images of US Army.
FN Minimi
Hector used this MG in his final mission in season 3. He had the paratrooper verison.
Browning M2 .50 caliber
Seen on top of HUMVEES used by the US Army
Kalashnikov PKM
Seen used in episode 2 of season 1.
RPK
Used by a terrorist in Season 3, Episode 3 during the shootout at the aircraft hanger.
Sniper Rifles
Custom M16 marksman rifle
Shown prominently in season 2 episode 3 where for some strange reason, the entire unit went into the field carrying them and their man that was pinned down was also carrying one. It was noted that Blaine recognized the sound of a "7.62" shot distinctly over the enemy sniper's weapon to recognize friendly's fire. The problem is that all of their rifles fires 5.56 including the man they were rescuing, who clearly was using an M4. At the beginning of the episode - Bob was training a group of unit members and except himself, they all were using these rifles. Propwise, these are probably the same ones used later in the episodes by the rest of the Unit cast out in the field.
- Uh, those aren't SR25s. They're 5.56mm guns. The SR25 has a longer receiver. These are the standard 5.56mm length receiver. there is a straight angle 'bend down' along the body of the SR25 upper receiver that these guns don't have. Also the SR25 doesn't have a forward assist, these do (at least all the ones I have do not have a forward assist ;) ) Also those magazines are 5.56mm, not 7.62x51mm. The 5.56mm AR magazines have three grooves, the 7.62 magazines have FOUR grooves (and are bigger, but scale is hard to tell unless you know how big an actor is). MPM2008
- I had a feeling none of these were SR-25s. I didn't have much comparison but they were using them like sniper rifles. I thought they might be mark 12 mod 0s. Either way They have the long barrels of M16A4s but firing only in semi auto.
- Upon watching the episode again these rifles are clearly just ordinary M16s. All attached with scopes because in one scene Mack fired his in full auto. So basicly they took an M16 barrel with rails and slapped them onto a full auto receiver similiar the one in Live Free or Die Hard.
- The ones in Live Free or Die Hard are Mark 12 Mod 1 Special Purpose Rifles...not like these.
- Didn't you read what I said above? They are NOT Mark 12s.
- I said similiar, not IS. There's a difference. If you got a name for this weapon, please correct me.
- You guys are confusing each other. They are M16A4s or the civilian AR-15 equivalent The Sporter Competition H-Bar fitted with scopes and placed full-auto lowers. What he means by how they're like the ones in Live Free or Die Hard is that they too were placed on full-auto lowers, not that they are Mk. 12 mod 1 SPRs. -GM45
- Right, but then shouldn't this entry have NOT been re-titled "Mark 12 SPR"? That's what I was referring to. -MT2008
- Well, I'm keeping this in the sniper section because that's how the Unit has been using this rifle as a disignated marksman's rifle.
AR-10?
This one is a .308 model, unlike the rifles above. Also this is likely an actual sniper rifle since the front sight was removed. Also note how it lacks a forward assist.
Chey-Tac M-200
Used in the Episode "Dark of the Moon" by Bob and Hector to engage the tribesmen
Blaser 93
H&K PSG1
Mack used this rifle in "Stress" (S1E2) with great effect. His rifle had a 20 round magazine in it.
Accuracy International PM
Seen in the season 1 episode "Non-permissive Environment". Mack aimed it for a while and Bob took the shot when they changed places. The thumb hole in the stock and the shape of the cheek rest make this rifle look more like an Accuracy International product. An L115 or L96 would be a better match than the Sig Sauer 3000 as suggested before. If it is indeed something else, then someone please correct.
Accuracy International L115A1
Mack used this in Episode 1 of the 4th season. Need identification of rifle. Looks like an L96 to me. Looks more like a L115A1.
Remington PSS 700
Gerhardt (Max Martini) wields a Remington PSS 700 rifle. His variant has the synthetic McMillan stock and heavy barrel, but doesn't have the Bipod attached. These guns are chambered in either .308 or .300 Winchester Magnum. Seen in the new opening of season 4.
Dragunov SVD
Heavy Weapons
M203 Grenade Launcher
Like all armories for film and TV series, these would most likely be Cobray 37mm flare launchers that were designed to look like M203s. This is a common practice to have the appearence of 203s. It is unlikely any of the M203s seen in the series are real M203s.
FIM-92A Stinger
Seen in one episode where Bob took out a helicopter with one.
Chinese Type 69 RPG
Both examples seen here are the Chinese Type 69 launcher (the Chinese version of the Soviet RPG-7). The biggest difference is that the Chinese RPG had only one pistol grip. The second hand has to grasp a carry handle on top of the launcher. One was used by Blaine in an episode. The Type 69s in the series have an optical sight mounted on the launcher.
Other Weapons
SKS
Seen in episode 20 of season 2.
M1 Garand
Seen used by American forces in the Korean War flashback.
Winchester 1886
The park ranger in Episode 1 of Season 4 had it.
- Based on the rounded pistol grip I'm assuming it is a Winchester 1886.
Musket rifle
Found in the cabin by Grey in episode 1 of season 4. It wasn't used but the black powder that came with it was used.
- This looks like a Kentucky rifle like the Patriots used in the Revolutionary War.
Bow & Arrow
Not a firearm but should be noted since Bob went Ted Nugent on the fake US National Guardsmen in Episode 1 of season 4.
