The following weapons were used in Season 3 of the television series Tour of Duty:
Handguns
Colt M1911A1
The M1911A1 is seen primarily used in Season 3 by Lt. Myron Goldman (Stephen Caffrey).
MGC M1911A1
Throughout the series, the MGC M1911A1 is sometimes seen in place of an actual M1911A1.
Colt MK IV Series 80
Unlike other officer and soldiers, First Lieutenant John McKay's (Dan Gauthier) sidearm is a blued Colt MK IV Series 80 with pearl grips that he carries in a shoulder holster. This is anachronistic for the time period of the series, as the MK IV Series 80 was first produced in 1983.
Tokarev TT-33
NVA officers and some other characters can be seen armed with the Tokarev TT-33 pistols.
Walther PPK Pistol
A Walther PPK appears to be the pistol seen in the hands of Lt. Beller at the end of "Three Cheers for the Orange, White and Blue" (S3E19).

A Colt Sporter Carbine modified to resemble the XM177 rifle is mainly seen being used by SFC Clayton "Zeke" Anderson (Terence Knox). For the remainder of the series, the Colt is loaded with the more accurate 20 round magazine.
