The Shield was a television crime series created by Shawn Ryan (The Unit) that starred Michael Chiklis as Vic Mackey, a Los Angeles police detective who played both sides of the law as the leader of an undercover strike team which also happened to have its hands in several illegal operations throughout the city. Benito Martinez co-starred as the police lieutenant intent on bringing Mackey to justice while being the commanding officer of the police station they both work out of. The cast included Walton Goggins, Kenneth Johnson, Michael Jace, and CCH Pounder. The series encountered controversy for pushing the limits on portraying violence, language and nudity (an amount that at the time had not been seen on a basic cable network). The Shield ran for seven seasons on the FX channel from 2002 to 2008.
The following weapons were used in the television series The Shield:
In the pilot episode, Mackey is seen taking what appears to be a stainless SIG-Sauer P226 off a suspect and using it. The SIG seen appears to be a Non Gun.
A .357 Desert Eagle is used by Vic for the rest of Season 7 after he quits the force. He claims to carry it on a "cross draw" holster. He is notably seen taking it out of his desk drawer and putting it in his waistband in the final scene of the series.
A Smith & Wesson Model 66 is used by Mara (Michele Hicks) in "Possible Kill Screen" (S7E12). The revolver is later seen on a bathroom floor in the series finale "Family Meeting" (S7E13).
Detective Vic Mackey also carries a snub-nosed Smith & Wesson Model 640 Centennial as a backup weapon, notably in Season 3's premiere "Playing Tight" (S3E01).
A cache of weapons is seen when the Strike Team raids a gang-owned Army/Navy Surplus Store in Season 7's premiere. On a table several AKM's and numerous magazines can be seen. A gang member also uses one.
