The following weapons were used in the film Traffic:
Baja California police officers Javier Rodriguez (Benicio del Toro) and Manolo Sanchez (Jacob Vargas) each carry a Colt Mk IV Series 70 1911. The two cartel men that take Javier and Manolo out into the desert later also carry Series 70s (possibly the policemen's own pistols).
Heckler & Koch Mark 23
Eduardo Ruiz (Miguel Ferrer) draws a Heckler & Koch Mark 23 and shoots DEA Agent Gordon in the chest. Gordon pulls the slug out of his bulletproof vest once Ruiz leaves the room.
DEA Agent Ray Castro (Luis Guzmán) carries a Glock 17 as his standard sidearm. Several other DEA agents and San Diego police carry and use them during the shootout outside Ruiz's office. The hitmen sent by Carlos Ayala (Steven Bauer) to assassinate Arnie Metzger (Dennis Quaid) are seen entering his office with a small suppressed pistol that resembles the Glock.
Glock 19
Several DEA agents and San Diego police officers carry Glock 19 pistols during the siege at Ruiz's office.
The woman in the blue shirt has a SIG P226 in this picture. However, in the other picture, she has a Glock. What that means is that we've discovered a gun-related continuity error. -MT2008
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
One of the soldiers at Salazar's camp carries a Heckler & Koch MP5A2 over his back.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
Some of Ruiz's drug smugglers use Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns during the battle with the San Diego PD and the DEA.
Several of Salazar's soldiers carry M16A1 assault rifles fitted with A2-style handguards. Some DEA agents towards the end of the film can also be seen with these.
