The following firearms were used in the 1993 movie Falling Down:
Handguns
Beretta 92F
A Beretta 92F is seen in the holster of an LAPD officer.
Taurus PT92
A Taurus PT92 is first used by Nick the Neo-Nazi (Frederic Forrest), owner of the surplus store, to threaten William 'D-Fens' Foster. Foster then takes it and uses it himself.
Colt MkIV Series 70
A Colt MK IV Series 70 is used in the final scenes in which William 'D-Fens' Foster pursues his family and is confronted by Detective Martin Prendergast (Robert Duvall). The gun was most likely obtained from the "gun bag" of the Latino gang. Notice the two tone Blued finish typical of the Colt MK IV Series 70 pistols.
Smith & Wesson Model 19
A Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub is picked up by Detective Martin Prendergrast (Robert Duvall) from his wounded partner Samantha Torres (Rachel Ticotin).
Smith & Wesson Model 15
A Smith & Wesson Model 15 .38 cal revolver with a 4 inch barrel is the service weapon of Detective Martin Prendergrast (Robert Duvall). He hands it over to the police clerk at the beginning of the movie due to his impending retirement.
Smith & Wesson Model 30
What appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 30 is seen hanging from the door of the crashed car, and is picked up by'D-Fens'. D-Fens then puts the revolver in the bag with the rest of the guns. This also appears to be the revolver pulled by Nick the Neo-Nazi (Frederic Forrest) during a confrontation with a male couple in his surplus store.
Submachine Guns
Intratec TEC-9
A Intratec TEC-9 pistol that has been converted to full auto is seen several times throughout the film. It is first used by a member of the Latino street gang during the drive-by shooting, then used by William 'D-Fens' Foster (Michael Douglas) in the scene at the Whammyburger restaurant.
MAC-10
A MAC-10 is used by William 'D-Fens' Foster to destroy a phone booth.
IMI Uzi
An Uzi is used by William 'D-Fens' Foster to wound a member of the street gang. There are rubber bands around the grip to keep the grip safety depressed so firing could be done quicker and without a full grip on the firearm. It can also be seen at the hands of one of the gang members before the failed drive-by shooting.
Other Weapons
Sawed-off Remington 870
A cut-down Remington 870 shotgun with a cut down buttstock is used by William 'D-Fens' Foster to shoot a golf cart and accidentally threaten the caretaker of a rich doctor's house.
M72 LAW
An M72 LAW is used by William 'D-Fens' Foster to destroy a large crane. It was obtained from the store of the Neo-Nazi surplus seller. The weapon is inaccurately portrayed as a heat-seeking guided missile, as opposed to an unguided rocket (its real-life role). Strangely, "D-Fens" manages to fire the weapon without turning off the safety or even pressing the trigger.
Browning M1919A4
A Browning M1919A4 machine gun with portions of the side receiver wall cut away is seen mounted from the ceiling in the surplus store.
M60
A M60 machine gun is also seen in the surplus store.
Bag of Guns
D-Fens picks up a bag of guns after the botched drive-by, and subsequently uses the weapons it contains throughout the film. Interestingly, he never uses the same weapon more than once.
