Handguns
Smith & Wesson Sigma Subcompact
FBI Special Agent Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis) carries as his sidearm throughout the film the Subcompact version of the Smith & Wesson Sigma. At one point in the film, Kudrow (Alec Baldwin) tells the SWAT team leader (James MacDonald) "I got a 9mm down on the sidewalk", referring to Art's Sigma. This weapon is chambered in .380 ACP (AKA 9mm Short), though Kudrow likely meant 9mm as in '9x19mm' or '9mm Parabellum', which would make this line of dialogue a slight goof.
SIG-Sauer P226
A SIG-Sauer P226 is the sidearm carried by the majority of the FBI agents seen in the film. Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis) is seen with what appears to be a full-size P226 holstered during a conversation in an FBI office. Special Agent Tommy B. Jordan (Chi McBride) also is seen with the handgun. The SIG also is used by Shayes (Peter Stormare) in the confrontation on the train. A SIG is also pulled by Lt. Colonel Nicholas Kudrow (Alec Baldwin) on the rooftop at the end of the film. The same gun is later used by Art.
