Marcus Greer (50 Cent) uses a 2nd generation Glock 17 as his primary firearm in the film. The Glock changes between a Glock "Non Gun" in several scenes. Justice (Tory Kittles) also uses a Glock 17 during the assassination attempt. He fires 9 rounds into Marcus' body, who amazingly survives. 50 Cent, whose life this film is based on, has survived a similar incident in real life.
Junebug (Mpho Koao) uses a Glock "Non Gun" to kill two police officers who are camping outside gangster Levar's house. One of Raoul's (Walter Alza) accomplices also uses a "Non Gun" Glock in the film. Non Guns are used when blanks are not needed, or deemed too dangerous when filming a scene. Non Guns only produce a flash and a puff of smoke and have no moving parts, which make them extremely safe to use in any conditions.
One of the cash machine operators during the robbery in the beginning of the film uses a Beretta 92FS Inox to fire at Marcus' crew. Kyrl (Omar Benson Miller) also chambers a Beretta 92FS Inox during one of Marcus' recording sessions.
Several Beretta 92FS Inox "Non Guns" make appearances in the film, obviously standing in for the real 92FS Inox. Raoul (Walter Alza) uses a "Non Gun" Inox during the shootout at a club (crippling Antwan), and to shoot up a recording session of Majestic's protege rap-star Dangerous (Michael Miller). Bama (Terrence Howard) also uses a Non Gun Inox during the climax of the film, to fire on Majestic (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) as he tries to stab Marcus with his cane-sword.
Justice (Tory Kittles) uses a SIG-Sauer P226 during the robbery in the beginning of the film. The store guards also have P226 pistols. Bama (Terrence Howard) disarms and uses one of the SIG-Sauer P226 pistols during the robbery, along with his P14-45. Raoul (Walter Alza) drops a SIG-Sauer P226 as Marcus (50 Cent) comes to retaliate for the club shootout. Bama also has a P226 during one of Marcus' recording session. He offers it to Marcus, as Marcus states they have to get rid of Majestic.
