S.W.A.T. (1975 - 1976)
S.W.A.T. was a television action series that followed the actions of an elite special weapons unit within the ranks of a Southern California police department. The series, which aired on ABC for two seasons from 1975 to 1976, helped introduce the idea of such a unit to the general public. The series would be adapted as a feature film in 2003.
The following weapons were used in the television series S.W.A.T. (1975):
The M16 is the primary weapon of SWAT and seen used by all the officers in the series including Lieutenant Dan "Hondo" Harrelson (Steve Forrest), Sgt. Deacon "Deke" McKay (Rod Perry), Officer Jim Street (Robert Urich), Officer Dominic Luca (Mark Shera), and Officer T.J. McCabe (James Coleman).
SWAT trainees are seen practicing with this rifle in the series premiere "The Killing Ground" (S1E01). It's also used by the assassin Mr. Bravo (Christopher George) in the episode "Bravo Enigma", as well as being identified by name in the same episode.
The J&R Engineering M80 Carbine was used by cult leader Joey Hopper (Sal Mineo) in "A Coven of Killers" (S1E02) and by a pair of SCUBA clad assassins in the episode "Bravo Enigma".
Officer T.J. McCabe fires the Winchester Model 1897 shotgun in the series premiere "The Killing Ground" (S1E01). This appears to be a continuity error as there appeared to an Ithaca mounted in his patrol car.
