Treasury agent Elliot Ness (Kevin Costner) uses a M1911A1 throughout the film. Treasury accountant Oscar Wallace (Charles Martin Smith) keeps one in a shoulder holster. Frank Nitti (Billy Drago) carries a nickel-plated M1911A1 in court, which Ness uses as an excuse to kick him out. Several other of Capone's (Robert De Niro) mobsters carry them.

Smith & Wesson Model 10

A Smith & Wesson Model 10 is carried by Stone (Andy Garcia). He uses it to kill the gangster who is holding the bookeeper hostage at the end of the shootout in the train depot. Malone (Sean Connery) also carries one, which he infamously uses to shoot an already dead gangster. Many other Chicago policemen carry Model 10s.

Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk III* rifle

Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* .303 British

Pattern 1914 Enfield rifle

A Pattern 1914 Enfield rifle is used by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M1917 Enfield .30-06. The Pattern 1914 was chambered originally in a high velocity .276 caliber and then changed to .303 British when the experimental caliber proved to be troublesome. Remington manufactured the rifle for the British in WW1. After the U.S. joined the Allies it was easy to convert the rifle to 30-06. Which was important since the Federal Springfield Armory could not produce enough of the 1903 Springfield rifle to meet war demands.United States troops carried both the 1917 Enfield and the 1903 Springfield in World War I.

Springfield M1903 rifle

The Chicago Police Department uses Springfield M1903 rifles.
