Beretta 92SB

Both Stackhouse (Gabriel Macht) and Lt. Chris Burnett (Owen Wilson) have Beretta 92SB handguns as their sidearms. When the two of them first crash land in Bosnia after their F/A-18F Super Hornet is shot down, Stackhouse is discovered by the Serbs. They take his weapon and question him. After that, a Serb sniper named Sasha (Vladimir Mashkov) uses the pilot's own weapon to execute him, and then uses it to shoot at Burnett when he is discovered. Burnett later uses his Beretta 92SB to shoot and injure Sasha near the end of the film. This model of the Beretta won the airforce trials and is accurately portayed as used in the film. Note how it has a rounded trigger guard front. The later models such as the 92F and 92FS would incorporate the curved trigger guard later on. The use of this handgun also would seem to depict that this film is set around the same time as USAF Captain Scott O'Grady crashed in Bosnia, in which this film is loosely based.

Beretta M92FS

In addition to the Beretta 92SB's mentioned above, a few Beretta M92FS pistols can also be seen, most notably when the Marines are gearing up for the rescue mission aboard the Harry S. Truman.

CZ 75B

The Serbians use CZ-75B handguns as their sidearms. It is most notably seen when Sasha (Vladimir Mashkov) uses his to fire at Burnett (Owen Wilson) when he is first discovered by the Serbs. He also uses it later on to detonate an unexploded landmine.

Sig Sauer SSG 3000

Throughout the film, Sasha can be seen carrying a Sig Sauer SSG 3000 sniper rifle with folding bipod as his main weapon, firing on Burnett with it several times as he persues him across Bosnia, though never scores a fatal shot. While similar in appearance to other sniper rifles such as the Sako TRG-22 and CZ-750, the molded magazine well clearly distinguishes it.

Mosin Nagant

At the end of the film when Burnett (Owen Wilson) is being rescued by the U.S Marines, A Serb sniper with a heavily Camouflaged Mosin Nagant attempts to shoot Burnett while he's running back to the helicopters, but before he can fire, he is taken out by a Marine sniper.

It can't be a mosin-nagant. When he is shot and falls back, the magazine well is shown to be flat, not extended and curved.

The rifle this soldier is using is a CZ 700 or 750. The movie was made in Czech Republic (or Slovakia) and they used the weapons that are in that country, except for a few possibly Yugo AK's for the Serbs.

AK-47

While hunting for Burnett, at least one Serbian soldier can be seen carrying a genuine AK-47 rifle.

AKM

Many of the Serbian soldiers can be seen with AKM rifles throughout the film. A couple are also seen being carried by civilians stackhouse encounters, including a young man who accompanies Burnett in his attempt to reach the extraction point. Burnett also comandeers one of these weapons from a dead Serbian soldier and uses it for most of the remainder of the film.

Sa vz 58

Along with the AKM, many of the Serbian soldiers can also be seen carrying Sa vz 58 rifles, most notably in the scene where Burnett is navagating the minefield. A pair of Serbian soldiers brandishing Sa vz 58 rifles spot him and give chase, unaware of the minefield until they trigger it, killing them and destroying their rifles.

Not a real accurate way of confirmation, but, that doesn't look like aan M40. Most likely a CZ550 varmint heavy bbl.

Browning M2

In the scene where Stackhouse is captured, some of the Serbian vehicles arriving on the scene can be seen with American-made Browning M2 heavy machine guns mounted on them.
