Painkiller Jane was a television show for the Sci Fi Channel that ran for one season (2007). In the television series, Kristanna Loken played the self healing titular character DEA Agent Jane Vasco. Not to be confused with the made for television movie Painkiller Jane (2005) that started Emmanuelle Vaugier as U.S. Army Capt. Jane Elizabeth Browning, though both became the titular action heroine who heals from all mortal wounds and (apparently) cannot be killed except through complete destruction of the body (burned completely to ashes or explosion or acid) or dismemberment or decapitation.
The show was mostly filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, but then abruptly moved to Budapest, Hungary for the last third of the season. To the show's credit, when the production moved to Hungary, the storyline also moved to the same country, so they did not try to make an Eastern European country look like the United States.
In the Pilot Episode, a "Neuro" makes police officers shoot at Jane Vasco. They all fire in a police station when, in the melee, the fire alarm goes off. They all use SIG-Sauer P226 Pistols - 9mm.
In the pilot episode, a ten year old Jane Vasco (Tiera Skovbye) wields a Heckler & Koch MP5K -9mm

To be fair this is the only time she blinks while dumping the entire magazine (and this was the only frame of the weapon that was not blurry.)Error creating thumbnail: File missingTen year old Jane Vasco (Tiera Skovbye) fires her MP5K with a small rail attached to the foregrip - 9mm
Episode 2 "Toy Soldiers", Connor King (Noah Danby) carries a stainless steel Ithaca Model 37 shotgun with a short barrel and an MP5K foregrip in place of the factory foregrip.
Episode 2 "Toy Soldiers" Andre McBride (Rob Stewart) uses a black stocked SL8 Tactical outfitted with a Suppressor. The barrel has been threaded to accept a suppressor. This is a Canadian or European version of the SL8-4 with short scope rail, double stack magazine well, with a flush fit five or 10 round magazine, Harris Bipod, and Scope. The rifle is wrongly depicted as capable of firing darts.
