Killer ([[Oliver Jackson-Cohen]]) uses a 3rd Gen [[Glock 20]] with a custom carbon fiber pattern frame as his sidearm for a good portion of the film. Confirmation of the model number is made based on the bore diameter, shots of the ammunition, and the mention made in [http://www.bullz-eye.com/movies/interviews/2010/george_tillman_jr.htm this interview] with the director.

Faster is a 2010 action film starring Dwayne Johnson as an ex-con who sets out to avenge the death of his brother (Matt Gerald) after they were double-crossed during a heist years ago. During his campaign of revenge, he's tracked by a veteran cop (Billy Bob Thornton) and an egocentric hit man (Oliver Jackson-Cohen).
The following weapons were used in the film Faster:
Killer (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) uses a 3rd Gen Glock 21 with a custom carbon fiber pattern frame as his sidearm for a good portion of the film. While the director of the film referred to the pistol as a "Glock Model 22" in an interview, the weapon is in fact a -21, as evidenced when Killer is seen loading the magazine with .45 ACP ammunition. The Glock 21 from this movie was later seen in Season 2 of Ray Donovan.
Cop (Billy Bob Thornton) carries a 2nd Gen Glock 22 as his sidearm in the film, confirmed by bore diameter and mention made in this interview with the director.
A full sized two-toned Heckler & Koch USP (caliber unknown) is seen in Killer's (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) armory, being taken by his girlfriend, Lily (Maggie Grace). Killer is later seen cleaning this same USP.
A sub-compact Stainless Kimber Ultra Raptor is seen used by Killer's girlfriend Lily (Maggie Grace) during their honeymoon, and is stored in the armory along with the other weapons. She is also seen shooting bottles at the same honeymoon location with it in the alternate ending.
Driver (Dwayne Johnson) uses a 2.5" barreled Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan throughout the movie. The unfluted cylinder indicates that it is chambered for the .454 Casull cartridge or the .480 Ruger. However the .480 Ruger model has been discontinued, and shots in the film confirm it is loaded with .454 Casull rounds.
A Heckler & Koch MP5A2 fitted with a Harris bipod and a scope is seen being reassembled by the Killer's girlfriend Lily (Maggie Grace) in a deleted scene.
