The Beretta 92FS is used by several characters in the series.

The Glock 17 is the sidearm carried by both Detective Carlton Lassiter (Timothy Omundson) and Det. Juliet O'Hara (Maggie Lawson) in the first four seasons. Det. Lassiter is seen wearing his Glock in various shoulder rigs, even having a quick draw dual from his shoulder holster. In Season 4's "Shawn Takes a Shot in the Dark", Shawn Spencer (James Roday) is seen firing Lassiter's Glock while hanging on the hood of a car. Detective Lassiter also is seen dual wielding these in the bar in Season 4's "Shawn Gets the Yips".

In Season 3's "Lassie Did a Bad, Bad Thing", a suspect kidnaps Shawn and holds him at gun point while at Lassiter's home with a Ruger P89 until Lassiter puts a round in his shoulder with his concealed pistol.
In Season 1's "Scary Sherry: Bianca's Toast", Detective Goochberg (Mercedes Ruehl) fires a Smith & Wesson Model 15 when taking target practice on the range with Det. Lassiter.
In Season 1's "Scary Sherry: Bianca's Toast", a Smith & Wesson Model 629 with rosewood grips and nickel finish is used by Detective Lassiter at the firing range and then used by his temporary partner Detective Goochberg (Mercedes Ruehl) who did not brace for the recoil and it (unrealistically) flies out of her hands and smashes into the wall breaking into several parts.
In Season 4's "Thrill Seekers and Hell Raisers", Stu (Bradley Stryker) is found in a trailer with what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 65 next to his body.
In Season 3's "There Might Be Blood", Ashley (Kelly Overton) uses the Smith & Wesson 3913 "Lady Smith" during her shootout with Lassiter, Juliet, Chief Vick (Kirsten Nelson), and Commander Barbara Dunlap (Jane Lynch).
What appears to be a gold-plated Taurus PT92 with pearl grips is held by a suspect in Season 5's "We'd Like to Thank the Academy". Shawn is later seen holding the handgun. This exact same gun was used by Vinnie Jones in Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball (which had the same armorers as this show).
In the pilot episode, Lucinda (Anne Dudek) uses a Walther P99 at the police shooting range before handing the weapon off to Shawn Spencer (James Roday) who proceeds to fire several shots, each hitting adjacent to the Detective's hits.
A P99 with a silver slide is pulled by Pierre Despereaux (Cary Elwes) in Season 4's "Extradition: British Columbia."
Raylene Wilcroft (Anne Marie DeLuise) uses a Walther in Season 1's "Woman Seeking Dead Husband: Smokers Okay, No Pets".
In Season 4's "You Can't Handle This Episode", Ewan O'Hara (John Cena) carries one of these in his right combat boot. Lassiter then inquires about it and examines the weapon remarking that it is "a sweet gun."
In Season 2's "Bounty Hunters!" (S2E09), Byrd Tatums (Kevin Sorbo) is armed with a sawed-off Ithaca 37 when he boards the boat that Dwayne Tancana (W. Earl Brown) is aboard. In Season 5's "Yin 3 in 2-D", Allison Cowley (Mena Suvari) uses one.

In the pilot episode, several SWAT officers are armed with the M16A2 during the raid on the house. Several SBPD Officers are seen holding the M16A2 when the police station goes into lockdown in Season 3's "Lassie Did a Bad, Bad Thing". There is two gun racks full of these in the military armory in Season 4's "You Can't Handle This Episode".

Heckler & Koch G36
The men smuggling weapons out of the military armory shoot at Shawn and Gus with Heckler & Koch G36 rifles with reflex sights in Season 4's "You Can't Handle This Episode".
The Springfield 1861 rifle is used by Civil War re-enactors throughout Season 1's "Weekend Warriors" (S1E06). The rifle also apparently was used to murder Nelson Poe (Yves Cameron). It's also seen being handled by Juliet later in the episode.
In Season 4's "Thrill Seekers & Hell Raisers" (S4E11), Derek (Steve Howey) uses a Winchester Model 70. Also note, in the coroner's office Woody says he was able to tell the shot came from a Winchester 70 rifle. He said he could tell this just by looking at the wound. While it is true that he could have been able to figure out that the wound came from a .30-06, he could not actually have figured out what particular .30-06 shot the victim.
In Season 3's "The Greatest Adventure in the History of Basic Cable" (S6E04), Henry is seen grabbing his X26 Taser from his bird house when he is convinced there's a perp in his house.
