The Substitute is a 1996 action film starring Tom Berenger as a mercenary who poses as a substitute teacher at the high school that his girlfriend teaches to find out why she was attacked. The film would spawn a series of direct to video sequels that starred Treat Williams in a similar role.
The following weapons were used in the film The Substitute:
Mercenary John Shale (Tom Berenger) is seen using an Smith & Wesson Sigma 9F when confronting Juan Lacas and his guys in the school. At the time this film was made, the Sigma was new to the market and it appears that whenever the pistol is seen fired, a Glock was substituted.
On the shooting range, Wellman (Richard Brooks) is seen firing a Glock 17. It also appears that a Glock is seen several times instead of what is supposed the Sigma.
Juan Lacas (Marc Anthony) is seen carrying a Walther PPK/S as his main handgun. He is also seen using it with a suppressor (lacking a threaded barrel to accept said suppressor).
Shale is seen with an M16A1 fitted with a scope after the opening mission in Cuba. In his demo reel, John Janus is seen disarming several soldiers armed with M16A1 rifles. Wellman (Richard Brooks) has the rifle slung while on the shooting range.
