The Company is a 2007 TNT miniseries that follows the activities of a CIA agent from the beginning of the Cold War to the collapse of the Soviet Union. The miniseries was executive produced by Ridley Scott and Tony Scott.
The following weapons were used in The Company:
WORK IN PROGRESS
Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 36
During his mission in East Berlin, CIA Agent Jack McCauliffe (Chris O'Donnell) is seen carrying a Smith & Wesson Model 36.
Colt M1911A1
CIA Agent Harvey "The Sorcerer" Torriti (Alfred Molina) carries a nickel Colt 1911 series handgun as his main sidearm.
Beretta 950 Jetfire
A Beretta 950 Jetfire is held by McCauliffe's female asset when she's about to be confronted by East Berlin police.
Makarov PM
KGB officers are seen armed with Makarov PM pistols in East Berlin.
Tokarev TT-33
Tokarev TT-33 pistols are used by both Yevgeny Tsipin (Rory Cochrane) and Hungarian resistance fighters.
Submachine Guns
Sten
A Sten is fired by McCauliffe during an incident in East Berlin.
MP40
The MP40 is carried by East Berlin police.
PPSh-41 Submachine Gun
The PPSh-41 Submachine Gun with stick mags was used by Hungarian forces during the siege of Budapest.
Beretta M12
The Beretta PM12S is carried by Vatican police when arresting a KGB conspirator.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
FBI HRT is seen using a Heckler & Koch MP5A3 when they go to apprehend the suspected CIA mole.
Rifles
Mosin Nagant M91/30
The Mosin Nagant M91/30 is used by Hungarian freedom fighters during the Budapest uprising.
SKS rifle
The SKS rifle is used by both government soldiers and Hungarian freedom fighters during the Budapest uprising.
M1 Garand
The M1 Garand rifle is seen used by Cuban freedom fighters during the Bay of Pigs invasion.
M1 Carbine
The M1 Carbine is seen used by Cuban freedom fighters during the Bay of Pigs invasion.
Norinco Type 56
Cuban forces are seen repelling the freedom fighters with Norinco Type 56 rifles during the Bay of Pigs invasion.
Note that this is quite wrong. At that time Cuban Armed Forces was armed with a mix of weapons, none from the AK family. AK47 and AKM came to the island a year after the Bay of Pigs Invasion, when URSS realized Castro was right about the intervention plots from the US government.
I recall seeing Czech weapons, with fold out bayonets carried by Castro militia at that time on the streets of Havana.
Heavy Weapons
DShKM Heavy Machine Gun
The DShK heavy machine gun is mounted on Soviet tanks during the siege of Budapest. Since the series was shot in Prague, these could very well be actual DShk's.
Browning M2
A Browning M2 HB is mounted on top of a jeep when the Cuban freedom fighters invade the Bay of Pigs. It's used by McCauliffe to repel the Cuban military forces.
Shotguns
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotguns are seen used by Yevgeny Tsipin (Rory Cochrane) and resistance fighter Elizabet (Natascha McElhone).
