'''''Community''''' was an American television comedy series that aired on NBC for five seasons from 2009-2014. Created by Dan Harmon, (''The Sarah Silverman Program'') it featured a diverse array of characters, from all different walks of life as they attend Greendale Community College as part of the same study group. It was not a traditional sitcom, as it features many pop culture references and meta humor, sometimes devoting entire episodes to particular pop culture tropes, such as action movies, westerns, conspiracy thrillers, bottle shows, clip shows, claymation, puppets and animation. It originally starred [[Joel McHale]], Gillian Jacobs, [[Chevy Chase]], [[Alison Brie]], [[Donald Glover]], Yvette Nicole Brown, Danny Pudi, with [[Jim Rash]] and [[Ken Jeong]]. Harmon was fired after Season 3 after disagreements with management and Chevy Chase, but after Chase quit after Season 4, Harmon was brought back for Season 5. Donald Glover left the show after a few episodes of Season 5, and [[Jonathan Banks]] and John Oliver were brought in to fill out the cast. | |||

During their homage to Pulp Fiction in "Critical Film Studies" (S02E19), Shirley Bennett (Yvette Nicole Brown) uses two M1911A1s in her role as Jules. Pierce Hawthorne (Chevy Chase) carries one in "Digital Estate Planning" (S03E20).
Beretta 92FS
In Pierce's scary story in "Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps" (S03E05), Troy (Donald Glover) and Abed (Danny Pudi) play stereotypical gangsters armed with Beretta 92FS pistols. The Tommy Lee Jones impersonator (Jim Meskimen) in "Contemporary Impressionists" (S03E12) is armed with a Beretta 92FS as well.
Voltran Blank Firing 9mm Pistol
After Abed completely tears apart his analysis of Who's the Boss? Professor Sheffield (Stephen Tobolowsky) opens his desk drawer to reveal a Voltran blank firing 9mm pistol in " Competitive Wine Tasting" (S02E20). It was designed to resemble a Walther PPK, but lacks a magazine release.
Unidentifiable Glock pistol
An agent (uncredited) begins to draw what appears to be a Glock pistol in "Epidemiology" (S02E06).
Shotguns
Mossberg 590 Cruiser
Office Cackowski (Craig Cackowski) pretends to shoot Professor Wooley/Garrity (Kevin Corrigan) with a Mossberg 590 Cruiser to teach everyone a lesson about the dangers of playing with prop guns in "Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design" (S02E09).

Submachine guns
