They are ultra-compact versions of the M16 rifle family with 11.5-inch barrels, being smaller and shorter than the M16A2 Rifle (20-inch) and M4 Carbine (14.5-inch). The reduced encumbrance comes at a tradeoff of reduced range and accuracy, which is appropriate since the robbers are carrying loads of cash and as the firefight takes place at close to medium distances. The M733s have full automatic and semi-auto fire modes, while retaining the penetration of the 5.56 mm round of its big brothers, making it much more potent than a submachine gun.

M16A1/A2

Several M16 assault rifles feature prominently in Heat.

It is difficult to determine the exact model, though it appears that the weapon depicted below is an M-16A1 variant - notice the narrower barrel profile and lack of A2-style rear sight adjustment wheel. The handguards are, in fact, of the cylindrical A2 variety (as opposed to the triangular A1 style), but these are easily changed between models and have no effect on the operation of the weapon.

The M16 is powerful and accurate, but it is also large and heavy and is shown not to have full automatic fire, making it less useful at close ranges.

In the bank robbery's ensuing shootout various LAPD officers, including Detective Casals (Wes Studi), carry and fire M16 rifles. Casals uses one to assist in disabling McCauley's getaway vehicle (a Lincoln Town Car) and injure Chris Shiherlis (Val Kilmer) during the gun battle.

Colt Commando

During the bank robbery Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) and Chris Shiherlis (Val Kilmer) carry Colt Commando carbines, which are also designated as M733. They are ultra-compact versions of the M16 rifle family with 11.5-inch barrels, being smaller and shorter than the M16A2 Rifle (20-inch) and M4 Carbine (14.5-inch). The reduced encumbrance comes at a tradeoff of reduced range and accuracy, which is appropriate since the robbers are carrying loads of cash and as the firefight takes place at close to medium distances. The M733s have full automatic and semi-auto fire modes, while retaining the penetration of the 5.56 mm round of its big brothers, making it much more potent than a submachine gun.

Not surprisingly, Shiherlis uses the M733s to great effect, killing Bosko (Ted Levine), a member of Hanna's detectives, in a brief exchange of fire. After the getaway ride is disabled, Shiherlis sprays the police barricade with dozens of rounds, shooting up the LAPD patrol cars and bringing down at several officers. McCauley also uses it to shoot a pursuing patrolman while carjacking a Ford Taurus Wagon to escape.

Detective Casals (Wes Studi) brings a Mossberg 590 in tactical trim to breach the door of Hugh Benny's (Henry Rollins) apartment. Sergeant Drucker (Mykelti Williamson) appears to carry the exact same Mossberg 590 in the firefight outside the bank heist.

Heckler & Koch USP Compact

Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) can be seen carrying a H&K USP Compact of unknown caliber in the early scenes of Heat. Note the checkered back of the grip and the shape of the external thumb safety and slide release, all uncommon to a Sig Sauer P220.
