The Package is a 1989 thriller starring Gene Hackman as US Army sergeant who loses the prisoner he was transporting from Germany to the United States. He then discovers that the prisoner is actually part of a conspiracy involving military officers in both the American and Russian military. The film was directed by Andrew Davis (who would later direct Tommy Lee Jones in Under Siege and The Fugitive.)
The following guns were used in the film The Package:
Steyr AUG
The sniper rifle that Boyette (Tommy Lee Jones) uses in the assassination attempt at the end of the film is the Steyr AUG. It is fitted with scope and silencer. A duplicate Steyr AUG is found in the office of the decoy Walter Hanke.
M1911A1
Sgt. Johnny Gallagher (Gene Hackman) uses the M1911A1 in the diner shootout. General Colson and his bodyguards draw their M1911's at the beginning of the film after they are ambushed.
Smith & Wesson Model 29
The snub version of the S&W Model 29 is the main sidearm of Chicago PD Lt. Milan Dilech (Dennis Franz).

Several conspirators use the Beretta 92F in the film. Boyette is seen using a suppressed Beretta in the climax of the film.
