==Norinco Type 56==
In the Season 2 episode "Distress", Roy Woodridge ([[Holt McCallany]]), a U.S. Army Ranger and veteran of Somalia suffering from a PTSD-related psychotic break, sees militia with various AKMs, but it's an illusion as they are actually SWAT officers with M4A1 Carbines. In a retelling of his past, he can be seen killing a child soldier armed with a [[Norinco Type 56]].

==MAC-10==
In Season 2's "Psychodrama" (S2E04), the bank robber Sheppard ([[Jason Wiles]]) uses a [[MAC-10]] fitted with a barrel shroud throughout the episode. In a brief standoff, he convinces a guard to surrender based on the fact he'd go down spraying at civilians.

==Heckler & Koch MP5A3==
Derek Morgan ([[Shemar Moore]]) and David Rossi ([[Joe Mantegna]]) use [[Heckler & Koch MP5A3]]s with dedicated SureFire lights in Season 5's "Rite of Passage" (S5E19). They deploy them because the region of Texas they are traveling to is close to the Mexico-U.S. border, and since there is a high possibility of armed attack (because drug and alien-immigration cartels directly target and place bounties on U.S. law enforcement agents, especially Federal agents), they may need the additional firepower.

In Season 7's "Dorado Falls" (S7E03), Luke Dolan ([[Max Martini]]) is seen armed with the MP5K throughout the episode.

A sawed off [[Remington_870#Remington_870_Field_Gun|Remington 870 Field Gun]] shotgun with raised barrel ribbing is used by the 'Road Warrior' killer ([[Mitch Pileggi]]) in the Season 4 episode "Normal". The shotgun has been fitted a custom brace on the pump that attaches to his windowsill and allows him to rack the slide and fire from inside his car at motorists while driving. Another such shotgun is also used by several militant activists who try to massacre a tribal school in Season 1's "The Tribe".

In Season 3's "Identity" (S3E07), Harris Townsend ([[Pat Skipper]]), a militia leader deputized by the sheriff, uses a [[Winchester Model 70]] fitted with a scope and Harris bipod to kill a crazy former militia member and save a hostage. He gives the team the spent shell.

In Season 5's "The Fight" (S5E18), FBI SSA Mick Rawson ([[Matt Ryan]]) takes aim with a [[SVD Dragunov]] sniper rifle fitted with a scope and bipod. The rifle is an unusual choice for an American federal agent (however, it's mentioned that Rawson is former British SAS).

Third-Generation Glock 17 pistols are carried by Supervisory Special Agent Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore) and B.A.U. (Behavior Analysis Unit) Chief SSA Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson). Morgan carries his Glock 17 with a Streamlight TLR-2 weaponlight/laser module. Other FBI agents and some police officers are seen with Glock 17 pistols. Season 4 marks the first time since the pilot that one of the members discontinues carrying a Glock - in this case Reid, who only carries his Glock 17 in the Season 4 opening episode 'Mayhem', after-which he begins carrying a .357 Smith & Wesson Model 65 revolver. Other FBI agents and some police officers are seen with Glock 17 pistols.
SSA Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster) uses a Third-Generation Glock 19 as her sidearm. Another Glock 19 is used by a police detective to fire a few shots at a fleeing criminal, although he misses and the criminal commits suicide by driving off a cliff. Also carried by NYPD officers.

Quinn (Timothy Carhart) of the Bend Police Department in Oregon about to fire his Glock 19 at a fleeing vehicle suspected in several murders. In several scenes, the Glock appears to be a Non Gun when fired.
Glock 26
A Glock 26 pistol is the duty weapon of the B.A.U.'s 'Communications Liaison' SSA Jennifer 'J.J.' Jareau (A.J. Cook). The Glock 26 is also the backup weapon carried by both Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson) and Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore), both carried in ankle holsters.
SSA David Rossi (Joe Mantegna) carries a Springfield Armory TRP, a model of which is used by the FBI's elite HRT, throughout the series, this suggests he may have been HRT/SWAT trained to use this weapon. Rossi also has a background of serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, which also possibly helps explain his use of a 1911-type pistol.
Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler) carries as his main weapon a 3" barrel Smith & Wesson Model 65 with wood-colored grips starting in the Season 4 episode "The Angel Maker". He carries his sidearm in a very frontal appendix-carry (as he also did with his previous Glock 17), a manner in-which a militia leader once said "The way you wear that gun - you're just asking someone to take it off of you boy." In addition, he carries the double action revolver in a holster that does not cover the trigger guard, something that is not generally advisable. There are several good shots of it in Season 4, notably at the beginning of 'The Instincts' when him and other agents check a basement (which actually happens to be a dream of Reid's)
A serial killer called 'Animal' in the Season 4 episode "Brothers in Arms" uses what appears to be an N-frame Smith & Wesson Model 27 / 28 .357 Magnum revolver (Most likely a Model 28) to kill at least six people (four of whom were cops).
Standard J-frame Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolvers are used by numerous unsubs (short for 'unknown-subjects') throughout the show. In the Season 4 episode "The Angel Maker", a female unsub has a Model 36 revolver.
An older model Smith & Wesson 4506 with the square trigger guard and frame bulge is used in the Season 4 episode "Minimal Loss" by Benjamin Cyrus (Luke Perry).
Beretta 92FS pistols are used by many characters, including criminals and police officers, notably by the terrorist Ben Abner to kill three Secret Service agents exiting a hospital elevator in Season 4's "Mayhem".
A female serial killer is seen pulling what appears to be a SIG-Sauer P232 on one of her victims in a Dallas parking garage in Season 4's "Pleasure Is My Business" (S4E16).
Throughout the series, FBI SWAT and several local police tactical units carry M4A1 carbines, both standard models and variants with various accessories.
Another weapon used by the cult in the episode "Minimal Loss" is the AKMSU carbine, notably the leader Benjamin Cyrus (Luke Perry). Like many AKMSUs in the film industry, these guns are outfitted with Krinkov parts kits to resemble AKS-74U carbines, but have a notably more curved 7.62x39mm magazine, as opposed to the AKS-74U's relatively straighter magazine. In the episodes "Valhalla" and "Lauren", a group of ex-IRA members can be seen armed with AKMSU's fitted with railed handguards and RIS foregrips & EOTech red dot sights, engaging in a shootout with Prentiss and Morgan when the two catch them leaving the home of a victim.

Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
Heckler & Koch MP5A2s are used by various SWAT teams, notably by FBI SWAT in Season 4's "Minimal Loss" (S4E03) during the rescue at the polygamist compound. In the episode, the gunfire of the MP5A2's appear to sound like suppressed fire, but no suppressors are seen on the weapons.

Shotguns
Remington 870
In Season 4's two-part finale "To Hell" (Part 1) - "...And Back" (Part 2), former U.S. Army Sergeant William Hightower (Sharif Atkins), whose sister was abducted and later murdered by an unsub team, takes an unguarded Remington 870 fitted with a Surefire dedicated forend weaponlight and speedfeed stock, using it to kill one of the unsubs after hearing his callous justification for his actions, dropping the weapon and surrendering to the agents after firing the fatal shot.
A sawed off Remington 870 Field Gun shotgun with raised barrel ribbing is used by the 'Road Warrior' killer (Mitch Pileggi) in the Season 4 episode "Normal". The shotgun has been fitted a custom brace on the pump that attaches to his windowsill and allows him to rack the slide and fire from inside his car at motorists while driving.
Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson) wields what appears to be a Mossberg 500 'Persuader' shotgun in the Season 4 episode "Brothers in Arms".
