xXx: State of the Union is the 2005 sequel to 2003's xXx. The film was directed by Lee Tamahori (Die Another Day) and stars Ice Cube as the "new" xXx agent. The film was released internationally under the title xXx 2: The Next Level.
The following firearms were used in the film xXx: State of the Union:
Smith & Wesson Performance Center Model 629 (Customized)
When Darius Stone (Ice Cube) breaks into the xXx headquarters, he is armed with the exact same modified Smith & Wesson Model 629 that was used by Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) in the first XXX. Agent Toby Lee Shavers (Michael Roof) can also be seen with it during the raid on the NSA compound before he and Gibbons make their escape using the GTO from the previous film.

An interesting goof to point out is that Cobb is referred to as a Sergeant and Lieutenant Colonel. However because of his background as a US Navy Seal. Cobb would not be able to have either ranks. The USN equivalent to Sergeant is Petty Officer Second Class and USN equivalent to Lieutenant Colonel is Commander.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe USP Compact Tactical lying on the floor of the Bullet Train after being dropped by Deckart.
Colt XSE M1911
Agent Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) has a customized Stainless Colt XSE M1911 pistol, which he loses and Darius finds on the floor of the mansion.
