Stargate is the 1994 science fiction film starring Kurt Russell as USAF Col. Jack O'Neil and James Spader as Dr. Daniel Jackson, who travel with a special ops team from Earth to a far flung planet on the other side of the galaxy via a recently activated portal known as a "stargate". The film was co-written by the film's director Roland Emmerich and the film's producer Dean Devlin (who later would collaborate on Independence Day) . The film's premise was later adapted (by a new team) into a very successful television franchise consisting of three television series: Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe.
The following weapons were used in the film Stargate (1994):
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS is utilized to represent the USGI (and USAF) standardized M9 sidearm when in the hands of the USAF exploration team. Colonel Jonathan "Jack" O'Neil (Kurt Russell) is seen at his house, where his son died, with a "private purchase" Beretta 92FS early in the film. Due to the Colonel being "inactive reserve", at the time, this (theoretically) would be a Beretta 92FS he purchased as the "Beretta M9 Special Edition" pistol was not available on the civilian market until 1998.
Later in the film both Colonel O'Neil (Kurt Russell) and Senior Airman Brown (Derek Webster) are seen armed with Beretta 92FS pistols as part of the USAF team. Beretta 92FS pistols are also utilized by Technical Sergeant Louis Feretti (French Stewart) and Dr. Daniel Jackson (James Spader) at various points in the film. After the entire team has been captured the teenage Abydonian rebels liberate the team's base camp and apparently recover several Beretta 92FS pistols that are used by them, and the remaining members of the team, during the final battle with Ra's forces.
Glock 17
All team members, with the exception of Colonel O'Neil (Kurt Russell) and Senior Airman Brown (Derek Webster), carry Glock 17 pistols. All remain holstered throughout the film with the exception of Lieutenant Colonel Kawalski (John Diehl) who, in the Special Edition of Stargate, is seen pulling it on the people of Nagada when they are closing the city doors before the sandstorm hits.
M16A1
M16A1 rifles are carried by the USAF guards in the Stargate Command Center.
M16A1 with A2 handguards
Heckler & Koch HK94A2
Colonel O'Neil (Kurt Russell) and Airman First Class Reilly (Jack Moore) are armed with 9mm Heckler & Koch HK94s chopped and converted to resemble the H&K MP5A2 submachine gun. Both are fitted with Surefire flashlight forearms and telescopic sights on STANAG mounts. The same faux MP5A2 submachine guns are used by the rebelling people of Abydos (namely Skaara (Alexis Cruz) and a band of teenage rebels) later in the movie when they fight Ra's forces (the rebels had found the weapons in the team's equipment cases at their base camp).
Heckler & Koch HK94A3
Technical Sergeant Feretti (French Stewart), Staff Sergeant Freeman (Christopher John Fields), and Senior Airman Brown (Derek Webster) are armed with 9mm Heckler & Koch HK94s chopped and converted to resemble the H&K MP5A3 submachine gun (with "wide" forearm). Like the faux MP5A2 submachine guns, the faux MP5A3 submachine guns are also used by the Abydos rebels after they are found in the team's base camp.
Heckler & Koch SR9TC
Lt. Kawalsky (John Diehl) can be seen carrying the Heckler & Koch SR9TC, outfitted with the HK91 wide forearm. (Note: while John Diehl is officially credited as "Lieutenant Kawalsky," he wears a Lieutenant Colonel's insignia throughout the film.)
Mossberg Bullpup
Airman First Class Porro (Steve Giannelli) carries a Mossberg 500 in a bullpup stock.
