The following weapons appear in the film Die Hard with a Vengeance:
WARNING! Spoilers Ahead!
Pistols
Beretta 92FS
As in Die Hard 2, NYPD Lt. John McClane (Bruce Willis) carries a Beretta 92FS as his sidearm. The Beretta is first seen as it is given back to McClane once he is reinstated. He uses it several times throughout the movie, most notably pulling it when surrounded by Simon's men in an elevator and firing it while driving a Mercedes to kill a pair of pursuing terrorists in a pickup during the film's car chase on the L.I.E. (Long Island Expressway). Katya (Sam Phillips) also uses a Beretta to fire at a helicopter overhead.
Glock 17
A New York City Transit Authority patrolman draws a Glock 17 on Zeus Carver (Samuel L. Jackson) attempts to answer a pay phone in a subway station.
Glock 19
The security guards at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York appear to carry Glock 19's. The terrorists that McClane shoots in the elevator are also armed with Glock 19s.
Heckler & Koch P9S
In an alternate ending, McClane tracks Simon down in Europe and pulls a Heckler & Koch P9S on him as he forces him to play a game of "McClane Says".
Makarov PM
While Simon and his men are at the Federal Reserve, Simon Gruber (Jeremy Irons) can be seen armed with a Makarov PM. In an alternate ending, Simon pulls out and throws away his Makarov when confronted by McClane.
Smith & Wesson Model 36 (Nickel)
When McClane is forced by Simon to go into Harlem, a nickel Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolver with Pachmayr grips is taped to his back. Zeus Carver (Samuel L. Jackson) steps in and grabs the revolver off McClane's back, using it to intimidate the assembled mob into backing off long enough for the two to escape.
Smith & Wesson Model 36
During the shootout at the Canadian border, John McClane uses the pilot's standard Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolver while under attack from Simon Gruber.
Walther PPK/S
While preparing to depart the doomed cargo ship, Simon Gruber and Katya (Sam Phillips) are confronted by Targo, who discovered earlier what was really the cargo on the ship. After Targo accuses Simon of betrayal, Katya draws a nickel-plated Walther PPK/S with pearl grips and empties the magazine.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500
When Simon and his men attempt to enter the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, a Federal Reserve Guard can be seen loading shells into a Mossberg 500 fitted with a heatshield.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5K
A common weapon seen used by the terrorists are Heckler & Koch MP5K submachineguns. During their infiltration of the cargo ship, John McClane takes one off of a dead terrorist and gives it to Zeus Carver before sending him off to find Simon Gruber. When Zeus does, he corners Simon and threatens to kill him if he doesn't give out the code to disarm a school-planted bomb (later found to be a decoy). Simon refuses and Zeus pulls the trigger, only to find the gun on safe. Simon disarms him, notes the fact that the safety is on, and then shoots Zeus in the leg.
MAC-10
John McClane lifts a MAC-10 off of a dead cargo ship terrorist after his fight with Targo (Nicholas Wyman), taking it and the Beretta up to the bridge.
Uzi
Another frequently-used weapon by Simon's men is the Uzi sub-machine gun. It is most notably seen in the scene where Targo rigs the dam to blow in an attempt to drown McClaine as he's pursuing them.
Micro Uzi
One of Simon's men disguised as a maintenance worker pulls a Micro Uzi on a Federal Reserve Deputy Marshal.
Rifles
Bushmaster XM15E2 S
Just before they blow the dam, one of Simon's men can be seen with what appears to be a Bushmaster XM15E2 of some sort. Bushmaster built the AR15s for the movie and for Bruce Willis' personal collection. A Bushmaster also appears to be the sniper rifle used by one of Simon's men at Yankee Stadium, fitted with a suppressor and a spotter's scope.
Other
M60 Machine Gun
During the shootout at the border, Simon Gruber uses an M60 machine gun from the seat of a helicopter to shoot at a nearby chopper carrying John McClane and Zeus Carver.
"Chinese Rocket Launcher"
In an alternate ending, McClane pulls out a Chinese rocket launcher which has the markings removed that indicate which end is the firing one. He then forces Simon to play "McClane Says" and point the launcher in the direction he thinks will not harm him. The launcher was custom made for the production out of iron and was hollow on the inside in order to place a special effects charge to simulate firing.
