'''''The Shield''''' was a television crime series created by Shawn Ryan (''[[The Unit]]'') that starred [[Michael Chiklis]] as Vic Mackey, a Los Angeles police detective who played both sides of the law as the leader of an undercover strike team which also happened to have its hands in several illegal operations throughout the city. [[Benito Martinez]] co-starred as the police lieutenant intent on bringing Mackey to justice while being the commanding officer of the police station they both work out of. The cast included [[Walton Goggins]], [[Kenneth Johnson]], [[Michael Jace]], and [[CCH Pounder]]. The series encountered controversy for its very graphic violence, language and nudity (an amount usually not seen on a basic cable network) ran for seven seasons on the FX channel.

The following weapons were used in the television series The Shield:
In the pilot episode, Mackey is seen taking what appears to be a stainless SIG-Sauer P226 off a suspect and using it. The SIG seen appears to be a Non Gun.
A .357 Desert Eagle is used by Vic for the rest of Season 7 after he quits the force. He claims to carry it on a "cross draw" holster. He is notably seen taking it out of his desk drawer and putting it in his waistband in the final scene of the series.
A cache of weapons is seen when the Strike Team raids a gang-owned Army/Navy Surplus Store in Season 7's premiere. On a table several AKM's and numerous magazines can be seen. A gang member also uses one.
