Revision as of 23:26, 15 September 2009
JAG was an American military adventure show that ran from 1995 to 2005. It ran for 1 year on NBC and then for 9 years on CBS. The show primarily dealt with US Navy and Marine lawyers in the Judge Advocate General Corps investigating and prosecuting cases involving military law. It starred David James Elliott as Commander Harmon Rabb, Jr., a former F-14 pilot turned JAG lawyer. The creator of the show was Donald Bellisario, who created several popular action shows including Magnum, P.I., Airwolf, and Quantum Leap. NCIS is a spinoff of this show.
The following weapons were used in the television series JAG:
Handguns
Beretta 92FS
Standard Issue sidearm for the US military and is used in various episodes throughout JAG by Lieutenant Commander Harmon Rabb Jr. (David James Elliott), Lieutenant Colonel Sarah Mackenzie (Catherine Bell) and Admiral A.J. Chegwidden (John M. Jackson) as well as various other US Military personnel.
Beretta 950 Jetfire
An engraved Beretta 950 Jetfire is seen given to Adm. Chegwidden by his ex-wife Marcella (Barbara Carrera) in the Season 4 episde "Going After Francesca". It is later used by Francesca (Guiliana Santini) in the same episode.
Colt M1911A1
Used by Jason Magida in the episode "Secrets" when he holds the JAG staff hostage and Admiral Chegwidden in "Ghosts" to hold Osbourne at gun point. Also used by then Lieutenant Boone in "A Separate Peace" to shoot and kill An Le Tam.
Browning Hi-Power
Used by British Forces in "Trinity".
Smith & Wesson 5906
A Smith and Wesson was the sidearm used by the local sheriff's deputies in the Season 1 episode "Survivors". Also used by an Italian mobster Luscino in the Season 4 episode "Going After Francesca".
Norinco Type 54
Seen being used/carried by Chinese officers.
Glock 17
Harm is seen firing a Glock during the Season 4 episode "Embassy".
Shotguns
Remington 870 Shotgun
Found and used by Rabb in the Season 1 episode "Sightings".
Mossberg 500
Rabb uses a Mossberg 500 series shotgun in the Season 2 episode "A Game of Go".
Mossberg 590
Adm. Chegwidden and Harm fire Mossberg 590 shotguns in the Season 4 episode "Going After Francesca".
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5N
Used in episodes featuring Navy SEALs, with and without silencers.
Heckler & Koch MP5K
The Heckler & Koch MP5K is seen used frequently over the series, most notably by Rabb to rescue Lieutenant Painter in the Season 1 episode "Defensive Action" and to prove his point by shooting a courtroom ceiling in the Season 2 episode "Heroes".
To be technical, these are MP5K-PDWs due to their 3 lug barrels. The second pic, if enlarged, shows the stock in the folded position peeking out between the magazine and the forward grip. Interestingly, it appears to have the old S-E-F trigger group which would make it a err... umm... that doesn't make sense! --Zurak 47 17:11, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
MAC-11
Rabb and several bodyguards were armed with MAC-11s in the season 1 episode "War Cries".
SA Vz.61 Skorpion
Seen being used by Russian Secret Service in the Season 1 episode "Hemlock", and by members of The Shining Path in the Season 1 episode "War Cries".
Sterling SMG
Used by British Forces in "Trinity".
Assault Rifles
M4 Carbine
Used by Marines in the episodes "The Boast" and "Death at the Mosque", with and without various attachments.
M16
Frequently seen in the flashbacks to Vietnam, such as in the episode "Survivors".
M16 rifle series
Various styles of M16s appeared in JAG during the show's long run. M16A1s with A2 hand guards were frequently used to simulate M16A2s. These guns make sense in JAG, because the military does use a lot of "Frankenstein" M16s. The Air Force being the worst offender, but they can be found in service with all branches.
Can also be seen in the episode Season 7 episode "Code of Conduct" being used by Navy SEALs and incorrectly shown being used by a US Army Special Forces Soldier in Season 7 episode "Tribunal".
CAR-15 Rifle with a M203 grenade launcher
Occasionally seen being carried by various members of the US armed forces on the show. Notice how the M203 barrel is the same length as the rifle barrel. If you enlarge the photo you can see it has a sound moderator.
Kalashnikov and Norinco Rifles
During the shows ten seasons several episodes were set in Russia, Chechnya, Cuba, Iraq, China, etc, as well as flashbacks to the Korean War, Vietnam, and the Cold War. Throughout this many varieties of Kalashnikov rifles have been seen, as well as the Chinese manufactured Norinco rifles. Unlike most movies and television shows JAG was usually pretty accurate about having the right rifle type for the locations.
FN FAL
Used by British Forces in the Season 2 episode "Trinity".
Rifles
M40A1 sniper rifle
Seen in the Season 1 episode "High Ground".
Browning 308
A Browning 308 was the personal hunting rifle of one of Lieutenant Commander Rabbs clients in "Survivors".
Heavy Weapons
Browning M2
In the Season 1 episode "War Cries", the Browning M2 50 cal is fired.
FN M249 SAW
