Clear and Present Danger is the 1994 follow-up to 1992's Patriot Games that once again stars Harrison Ford as CIA analyst Jack Ryan. In order to the avenge the assassination of his close friend, the President of the United States covertly declares war on the Colombian Drug Cartel Lindo. When Admiral James Greer (James Earl Jones) is diagnosed with cancer, CIA analyst Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) assumes the position Acting Deputy Director Intelligence of the CIA. There, he is misled to believe that there will be a "no-troops" enforcement for aiding Colombia. Instead, Robert Ritter, the CIA Deputy Director of Operations, employs former CIA operative John Clark (Willem Dafoe) to lead a Special Ops team to take out Cartel targets in Colombia. When the team is betrayed and Ryan discovers the lies, he heads to Colombia to rescue the surviving members. The Jack Ryan character would appear in three other movies: Patriot Games, The Hunt for Red October and The Sum of All Fears.
The following weapons were used in the film Clear and Present Danger:
Several members of the diplomatic security convoy as well as FBI Special Agent Dan Murray (Tim Grimm) in Colombia can be seen using SIG-Sauer P226 pistols in the scene where the convoy is ambushed.
The Beretta 92FS is seen in the holster of a Coast Guard sailor and a drug cartel soldier when the Special Ops team blows up the plant. The Beretta is also carried by members of the FBI director's security detail during the ambush.
The M24 sniper rifle is carried by Domingo Chavez (Raymond Cruz). It is shown fitted with a silencer & camo paint scheme and makes its first appearance in the shooting range scene, and then can be spotted in a few of the scenes involving the Reciprocity team on its mission. Finally, it is used in the scenes following the ambush of the reciprocity team. Another member of the Reciprocity team uses this rifle, as Chavez is on a mission.
At least two members of the Reciprocity-team carry M16A1 rifles equipped with A2-style handguards. The soldiers participating in the search-and-evade exercise involving Chavez however are equipped with actual M16A2's.
Most of the Reciprocity-team can be seen carrying Colt AR-15 Sporter-1 carbines. The weapons can be identified as Sporter-1 carbines by their lack of forward assist and brass deflector, and by their slab sided lower with screw type pivot pin. The weapons appear to be fitted with XM-177 style flash hiders, most likely a sleeve over the 16" Sporter barrel.
Several M1903 Springfield rifles can be seen carried by the U.S. Navy honor guard members when the members of the diplomatic convoy killed in Colombia are brought back to the United States.
Several M14 rifles are carried and used by the U.S. Navy honor guard present at the funeral of Admiral James Greer (James Earl Jones). The M14 is also carried by Marine Corps Honor Guard members.
Numerous variants of the Norinco Type 56-1 can be seen in the hands of Escobedo's men almost throughout the movie. They are most visible in the scene in which the reciprocity team attacks and destroys the underground drug lab.
In the scene where Chavez is scouting one of the drug labs, at least one of the mercenaries hired to provide additional security can be seen holding an FN L1A1 rifle.
Several Uzi's are seen in the movie in the hands of Colombian motorcycle police, and also some of Ernesto Escobedo (Miguel Sandoval)'s men. Also, the bouncer of the nightclub where the pilot is recruited from can be seen holding an Uzi.
Several members of the diplomatic convoy in Colombia can be seen using Mini Uzis when they are ambushed, as well as one of Escobedo's men when Ryan meets with him.
The Heckler & Koch HK94 (converted to pass for a Heckler & Koch MP5A3) is carried by Chavez, and it can be seen in at least in two scenes: firstly when Chavez plants a bomb on the drug-runner's plane, and secondly when he scouts the insides of a drug factory. Chavez's HK94 is also equipped with a silencer. Several of Escobedo's men can also be seen with HK94s.
The Heckler & Koch MP5K is carried by U.S. security personnel during the car ambush scene. Felix Cortez (Joaquim de Almeida) and several of Escobedo's men also carry them during the final scenes in which Cortez hunts the escaping protagonists.
The first M60 machine gun can be seen on the deck of the U.S. Coast Guard cutter when the yacht Enchanter is stopped. An M60E3 with a shortened barrel a la Predator is later seen being used by a member of the Operation Reciprocity team.
Several Browning M1919A4 machine guns can be seen mounted on Colombian military police jeeps in the scenes where Dr. Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) first arrives in Colombia, and when the ill-fated diplomatic convoy leaves the airport.
Several Chinese Type 69s are used by the Colombian drug dealers to ambush and destroy the American diplomatic convoy. The weapon is fired at least four times.
