The following guns appeared in this movie:
AKMS
Two types of non-Russian AKMS copies (referred to in the show incorrectly as "AK-47s") are used by Larry Eugene Phillips Jr. (Andrew Bryniarski) and Emil Matasareanu (Oleg Taktarov). The first type used by the robbers is the Romanian-manufactured AIMS, distinguished by its side-folding skeleton stock and forward hand grip under the barrel. This is the type used by both men when they first enter the bank and for nearly all of the gun battle. For much of the movie, the men use 100-round drum magazines when they engage the LAPD in the massive 44-minute shootout (though Matasareanu's AK has a 30-round magazine when he first enters the bank). Everyone refers these as AK-47 mostly because they aren't supposed to be gun experts. Like many shows and movies, people who see anything that looks like an AK-47 refers to it as that because it's the most recognizable weapon in the world.
Later, Phillips reaches into the trunk of the getaway car and grabs a Hungarian AK-63E under-folder (in the United States, the gun was sold in semi-auto-only form as the SA-85M). He uses this weapon until it jams (in the actual incident it was a "stove-pipe" jam, due to a short-stroke action cycle caused by a faulty/underfilled cartridge powder load), before discarding it and using his Beretta 92FS Inox.
Heckler & Koch G3 A4
Used briefly by Phillips (Andrew Bryniarski) during the battle; fitted with a 30-round magazine.
Custom M16
Near the final battle, Matasareanu (Oleg Taktarov) arms himself with what appears to be a custom M16 assault rifle, assembled from components of many weapons in the M16 family. The weapon has an M16 A2-style receiver and heavy barrel, a collapsible CAR-15/M4-style stock, and the triangular forearm of an M16 A1. The weapon is also fitted with a 100-round Beta C magazine.
inside the flim ,he use the 20" heavy barrel, but real his gun look like use 16" barrel
Beretta M92FS
This was the primary sidearm of the LAPD. Seen in the hands of Officers; Harris (Ray Baker), Bobby Martinez (Douglas Spain), Gomez (Alex Meneses), Henry Jones (Mario Van Peebles), and dozens of other officers.
Beretta 92FS Inox
Phillips (Andrew Bryniarski) pulls this pistol from a holster in his final moments and fires a few shots at LAPD before committing suicide with it, possibly on accident.
Smith & Wesson Model 686
Detective Frank McGregor (Michael Madsen) Carries a 4" Barreled 686 as his sidearm and uses it to shoot at the bankrobbers on multiple occasions during the shoot-out. At one point firing at one and possibly killing him.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
M1911A1
Donnie Anderson (Ron Livingston) finds this pistol in a box of his late father's things and briefly picks it up and looks at it after accidently knocking the box off his couch.
Ithaca 37
Several LAPD officers are armed with these 12 Gauge pump-action shotguns, loaded with 00 buckshot.
Remington 870
Several LAPD officers are armed with these 12 Gauge pump-action shotguns, loaded with 00 buckshot.
Colt CAR-15
The gunshop owner briefly shows one of these rifles to members of the LAPD when they come in the store desperate for better firepower. Being that it is a California gun store, chances are that it's a CAR-15 clone, made by one of the many AR rifle manufacturers that were California 'legal' in the 1990s. One of the SWAT officers was also seen armed with this weapon.
Colt Sporter II HBAR
The gunshop shows several of these rifles to members of the LAPD when they come in the store desperate for better firepower, they then leave with multiple rifles in the trunk of their car. Since this takes place in California in the mid 1990s, no gun shop would sell any rifle that was marked Colt AR-15 or Colt CAR-15 since they were banned 'by name' by the California "Roberti-Roos Assault Weapon Ban of 1989". However any aftermarket/third party gun or the Colt Sporters were okay since they didn't say "AR-15". The Colt Sporter II and other AR-15 style rifles would still eventually be banned by another California bill in 1999. These weapons were never used because by the time the patrol officers with the rifles arrived at the scene, SWAT offices had already neutralized the second suspect.
Colt M16A2 Assault Rifle
The LAPD SWAT officers were armed with M16A2 assault rifles. These weapons were deployed with the SWAT officers when they received the call and were not the ones that the patrol officers procured from the B&B gun store. They were referred to as the .223 by SWAT Officer Donnie Anderson.
Remington Model 700PSS
The gunshop owner shows the LAPD officers that come into the store this rifle and calls it "the best sniper rifle made".
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
Seen in the hands of several SWAT team members in an early scene including Donnie Anderson (Ron Livingston).
Benelli M1 Super90
