Error creating thumbnail: File missing A back shot of Bain holding her matte stainless Kahr K9 pistol very loosely in her fingers as she peers around a corner - 9mm. This is appropriate since Bain is completely untrained and has started using her pistol with no formal training whatsoever.
Kahr 9 Digital Gun flashes
It is noteworthy that Foster never really fires her Kahr K9 throughout the movie. Every time she fires, it is a digital flash. Probably easier due to the restrictive New York City filming locations.

Glock 19
Detective Mercer (Terrence Howard ) has a Glock 19 as his standard service pistol. He gives it to Erica Bain to kill a gang member in the climax.

Smith & Wesson Model 66

In the film, the police describe the shots as .38 special , which is completely understandable and usable by a .357 magnum revolver.

Green Screen shots
Error creating thumbnail: File missing What is interesting is how many GREEN screen shots there are of Foster shooting, probably the most expedient way to film scenes of firing weapons in a city (New York City) that is notorious for being difficult to fire live guns with blanks.
