Man on Fire is a 1987 Italian-French action thriller starring Scott Glenn as Christopher Creasy, a burnt-out former CIA operative turned bodyguard of twelve-years-old Italian girl Samantha Balletto, daughter of a wealthy businessman. After some time they become close friends. Then Samantha is kidnapped, and Creasy got a severe wound. Despite weakness, Creasy is determined to get Samantha back at all costs.
A Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snub Nose revolver is used by a kidnapper. Same looking revolver is seen in hands of another kidnapper, Violente (Lou Castel), in the scene in Sandri's hideout.
A Colt Python Snub Nose revolver is seen in the gun box. David (Joe Pesci) keeps it for himself. In the final scene a young criminal (Henri-Charles Alexandre) uses same looking revolver.
During the kidnapping one of the criminals is armed with a Benelli B76 pistol. A Benelli B76 is one of the handguns, used by Creasy (Scott Glenn) in his crusade.
What appears to be a Beretta 80 Series pistol, is also seen in gun box. It's hard to identify the exact model though Beretta 85 seems to be a possible guess.
When Creasy perfors his bodyguard duties, he carries a pistol that is seen only partially. A pistol with same looking grips is seen on Creasy's table when he readies for hunt for kidnappers.
An M1928A1 Thompson (or possibly M1921) with 50-round drum magazine and removed buttstock is seen in Sandri's hideout.

It seems to have a horizontal handguard rather than a foregrip so M1928A1 is more likely guess.

In the flashback scene in Beirut one of the combatants holds an unidentified weapon, possibly a submachine gun.
In the flashback scene in Beirut one of the combatants holds some version of M16. Several M16s of nondescript model are seen in Sandri's hideout. Three-prong flash hiders and the fact that the movie was filmed in Italy allows to guess that M16s are Italian produced .22 caliber Adler-Jäger AP-74s.
A subcompact M16-style carbine with folding stock and wooden furniture is seen in Sandri's hideout. It appears to be an Adler-Jäger AP-74/I, version of Adler-Jäger AP-74.
In the flashback scene in Beirut one of the combatants holds some version of AK. Its slim magazine allows to guess that the AK could be a Adler-Jäger AP-80, Italian blank firing AK replica.
