The following weapons were used in the television series Over There:
Beretta 92FS
One of the most rarely seen U.S. weapons in the series, the Beretta 92FS (standing in for the military-issue M9) was most notably used by a distraught Cpl. Shaver (Currie Graham) to commit suicide after he fails to save the life of an Iraqi boy injured by an insurgent bomber.
Kimber Custom TLE II
In "The Prisoner" (S1E03), Colonel Ryan (Michael Cudlitz) can be seen holding a Kimber Custom TLE II fitted with a Surefire 310R weaponlight to the head of Hassan (Rami Malek).
M4A1 Carbine
One of the most commonly seen weapons in the show, the M4A1 carbine is used by practically all the American characters in the show seen in Iraq, with a few exceptions. All versions have the RIS foregrip, with the exception of Pvt. Frank 'Dim' Dumphy (Luke MacFarlane) who has an M203 grenade launcher and Surefire Universal weaponlight mounted on his as mentioned below. The character Pvt. Avery 'Angel' King (Keith Robinson) has an ACOG scope mounted atop the carry handle of his M4 due to his role as the fireteam's Designated Marksman. Most of the M4A1's are also fitted with AN/PEQ-2 IR designators. One can also be seen in the hands of a distraught Iraqi civilian whose son has been mortally wounded by an insurgent bomber, and another M4A1 can be seen being used by Colonel Ryan (Michael Cudlitz), a Special Forces officer who has a custom camouflage paint scheme, suppressor, and Surefire Universal weaponlight on his M4A1.
M16A2 Rifle
The standard-issue M16A2 with no frills is being used by PV2 Brenda 'Mrs. B' Mitchell (Nicki Aycox) and PFC Esmaralda 'Doublewide' Del Rio (Lizette Carrión), due to their roles as members of a logistics unit instead of a front-line combat unit like their comrades.
M249 SAW
The M249 SAW is carried by the fireteam's Automatic Rifleman, Pvt. Maurice 'Smoke' Williams (Kirk "Sticky Fingaz" Jones) and several other soldiers. Smoke originally carries the standard M249, but somehow switches to the compact 'paratrooper' version featuring a telescoping stock and shorter barrel. Other soldiers can also be seen using standard M249's on occasion, including a few mounted on vehicles.
AK-47
As befitting the stereotypical 'bad guy' weapon, the AK-47 is seen in the hands of Iraqi insurgents that the characters end up facing in practically every episode, though are also seen in the hands of Iraqi soldiers working with the team on rare occasions.
RPG-7
Like the AK-47, the RPG-7 rocket launcher is used by Iraqi insurgents, most notably in the final episode of the series when a convoy the main characters are in is ambushed.
M203A1 Grenade Launcher
The M203A1 grenade launcher is attached to PV2 Frank 'Dim' Dumphy's M4A1, though fired it only in Episode 5, "Embedded". Another M203A1 can be seen fired by a soldier in Episode 1, "Pilot".
M2HB Browning Heavy Machine Gun
The M2HB Browning heavy machine gun also makes appearances in the series, usually mounted on U.S. vehicles such as Humvees. The most notable use of this weapon in the series was when 1LT Alexander 'Underpants' Hunter (Josh Stamberg) uses one to shoot an Iraqi boy trying to flag down a convoy in the final episode.
DShK Heavy Machine Gun
In "Pilot" (S1E01), an Iraqi insurgent can be seen firing a DShK heavy machine gun during the sandstorm firefight.
RPK Light Machine Gun
In "The Prisoner" (S1E03), one of the insurgents can be seen engaging U.S. forces from the roof of a building using an RPK light machine gun, but is inevitably taken out.
M242 Bushmaster Chaingun
In one episode, Smoke takes a nap inside an M2 Bradley, the vehicle armed with an M242 Bushmaster chaingun.
