At the beginning of the film, Sasha Petrosevitch ([[Steven Seagal]]) is briefly seen wielding a stainless or nickel-plated [1911]]-type pistol of unknown make/model, as per the norm in Seagal's movies. It is never seen clearly enough to properly identify. It looks a little like a [[M1911 pistol series#Kimber Stainless Target II|Kimber Stainless Target II]], but this is probably not the right model. | |||

The [[Vektor SP1]], a South African service pistol that is little-known in the U.S., is the sidearm of choice for most of the 49er terrorists.

He also uses a pair of SP1s akimbo during the final shootout, firing them from the crashed helicopter. Nick Frazier ([[Ja Rule]]) also uses a Vektor SP1 in several scenes. | |||
