At the end of the movie, Jim Halsey ([[C. Thomas Howell]]) grabs Captain Esteridge's([[Jeffrey DeMunn]]) sidearm. It is a 2.5"-barreled, Mag-na-ported S&W N-frame (probably, a [[Smith & Wesson 629]] ). A similar gun can be seen in the movie ''[[Extreme Prejudice]]'' and ''[[Beverly Hills Cop]]''. A continuity error is seen when John Ryder jumps through the windshield, Jim Halseys 629 turns into a [[Smith & Wesson Model 66]].

A State trooper riding in a Helicopter fires on Jim Halsey during the Highway chase with a M16/SP1. Several of the State troopers escorting John Ryder (Rutger Hauer) are also armed with M16/SP1s.
A Franchi SPAS-12 is carried by the State police escorting John Ryder to the state prison. Both John Ryder and Jim Halsey use the Franchi SPAS-12 at the climax of the film.
In addition to scenes shot in the studio, filming locations include Amboy, California, Barstow, California, Death Valley National Park in California, Imperial County, California and Lake Mead in Nevada.
