Burn Notice is an American action series that currently airs on the USA Network. It stars Jeffrey Donovan as Michael Westen, a spy who receives a "burn notice" from his employers, indicating that he is no longer associated with the agency. Stuck in the city of Miami, Michael is determined to find why he was "burned". His only allies are his former girlfriend Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar) and former Navy SEAL buddy Sam (Bruce Campbell). Together they help out people in need throughout the city.
The SIG-Sauer P226 is a commonly-seen pistol in the show. A two-tone model is carried by one of the Nigerian mercenaries in the pilot, and nickel models have been used by many bad guys including Michael's mentor Larry (Tim Matheson) in Season 3.
(Season 3, Episode 3) "End Run", Brennen (Jay Karnes) holds a two toned SIG-Sauer P226 (with a silver slide but black hammer).
Stainless Jericho 941s are a very common sidearm used by bad guys in the show, especially the head bad guy in various episodes. (It's almost like the Infinity is to Heroes.) In Season 1's "Family Business", the boss Eli Zamar (Joel Swetow) carried one, which Fiona recognizes as a "Desert Eagle 9mm with combat grips". Also, in Season 1's "False Flag", Evelyn (Lucy Lawless) uses a suppressed Jericho. In Season 2's "Sins of Omission", Brennan (Jay Karnes) draws down on Michael with one. It is also used in the Season 3's "Question & Answer." Also in Season 3, a black Baby Eagle was used by the henchmen in "End Run" and in "Enemies Closer" and also the gun used by Strickler in "Long Way Back."
In the pilot episode, Sugar (Arturo Fernandez), the drug dealer who lives next door to Michael, is seen with a Colt Python when Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) tactically invades his home and steals it during self defense. Michael later uses this stolen weapon to use it as a distraction device. He loads it up with blank rounds, attaches a flare, cell phone and a electric blasting cap to simulate gunfire.
A two tone Walther P99 is used by the Jamaican drug dealer to threaten Mike in Season 1's "Unpaid Debts". It is also carried by a thug in "Question & Answer."
In the episode "Bad Breaks", some of the bank robbers use Walther PPS pistols with sound suppressors attached. Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) is able to acquire one of these guns from a robber after sedating him with medicine from a first-aid kit; however, as the robber goes down, he struggles with Michael and empties all but one of the rounds from the magazine, leaving Michael with no other choice but to find another way to incapacitate or eliminate the rest of the robbers.
Victor carries a Lorcin Model L22 in .22LR as a concealed weapon. Mike calls it "cute," but it's enough to make him think twice about attacking Victor when it's held on him under a chess table.
A Heckler & Koch USP with a chrome slide is seen in the hands of several characters in (S2E5), Timo (Oded Fehr) uses one to coerce Michael into opening a liquor store safe.
A Heckler & Koch Mark 23 is used by Kent the smuggler in Season 1's finale "Loose Ends". Despite being a former Marine, he has a terrible low grip on his Mark 23. Maybe it's just too much handgun for him, or maybe it's so Michael will be able to easily take it away from him.
Glock 17's are used by Miami PD in the many instances when Mike tricks criminals into being arrested to solve his problem of the week. In Season 2's "Bad Breaks", Prescott (Mark Sheppard) uses a Glock 17 pistol with a silver (possibly hard-chromed) slide and a suppressor attached. In Season 3, Detective Paxson and Detective Lopez both have Glock 17's.
Corrupt cops are seen using Glock 19's, which is how Mike realizes they are police. He refers to them as "department issued Glocks" which implies Glock 19. In the third season episode "Question & Answer" Sam uses a Glock while playing a corrupt detective. It looks like a Glock 19.
Sam's Glock was a full-size model, not a compact. More likely a G17. Also, I'm not sure how "department-issue Glock" means Glock 19. They're not NYPD (and even movies featuring the NYPD sometimes depict them using the wrong Glock models). -MT2008
The Bulgarian who tries to spoil the gun deal carries a Glock 26 as a backup piece in an ankle holster. Firing it at Mike and Seymour the arms dealer when they make their exit.
Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell) carries a Beretta 92FS as his personal sidearm, and has used it several times throughout the series. The Beretta has also seen use with various other characters throughout the series' run, in both suppressed and unsuppressed forms.
A Makarov PM is on display in a mansion in Miami, which catches Fiona's eye. As a reward for his assistance Mike buys it on the cheap and gives it to her for her birthday. While most mil-surp Makarov's are very common, and not that expensive, there are some that are sought-after collector's pieces for various reasons.
Colt 1911 series handguns are seen numerous times throughout the series. First a M1911 is pulled on the gangster in Nigeria.
A stainless 1911 is seen in the hands of Eddie the embezzler, given to him by Mike. Eddie does not know he has been set up, and the pistol contains only blanks. Another stainless Colt 1911 is later given to Mike by the hijacker to defend himself with, which Mike uses to pretend to shoot Virgil, the ex-Navy SEAL. It is likely the same gun both times.
Later, the 1911 is used by Mike's old friend Harlan in the new season's first episode when he kidnaps Mike and threatens him with it.
In the episode "Shot in the Dark", a 13 year old boy drops a disassembled M1911 before admitting that he plans to kill his stepfather.
A Kimber Pro Carry with a black slide and stainless frame is seen many times throughout the series. It apears to be an Aegis. It is first seen in the hands of a con artist in season one. At this time Mike describes it as having extended controls and a beveled magazine well, which shows how serious the criminal is. The competition style extended frame safety is noticeable in one brief shot. A similar firearm, possibly the same exact one is used by the muscle of the bank robber operation, Kandi. :Or it could be a Dectonic's Service Master. I'm not sure, but I'm sort of tired of second guessing myself and re-writing the article segment. --ManiacallyChallenged 00:42, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
In the pilot episode, one of Sugar's thugs pulls an early model Smith & Wesson 5906 on Fiona and Michael. Michael later uses it with a homemade suppressor to wound Sugar. In Season 2's "Bad Breaks", one of the bank robbers uses a late model suppressed stainless 5906. A similar one is also carried by the boat guard in the same episode.
A Desert Eagle is seen in Season 3's "Fearless Leader" (S3E4) when Sam is being audited as proof of his trip to the Middle East. He took it from a guy which was part of a group they were targeting, quote "There was this thing, and then the gun didn't have an owner anymore."
In Season 2's "Hot Spot" (S2E11), an Interdynamic MP9 is used by Felix Cole (Kirk 'Sticky Fingaz' Jones) to shoot at the armored car with Mike(who is posing as "Johnny") and inadvertently his own boss. The weapon is identified as an Interdynamic MP9 by its foregrip and simple rear sight.
A variant of the Intratec TEC-9 series of assault pistols (either the KG-99 or the TEC-9 itself) can be seen being used by thugs in Season 3's "Fearless Leader" (S3E4).
The suppressed Ingram MAC-10 is carried by several of Prescott's men in Season 2's "Bad Breaks" (S2E13). They sneak it into the bank in a cardboard box filled with packing peanuts.
An FN P90TR fitted with an EOTECH Holosight is handled by Michael while he is posing as an arms dealer in Season 1's "Family Business". He refers to it as an "FN P90 with a Halo sight."
In Season 2's Breaking and Entering(S2E1), Michael uses an Armsel Protecta in conjunction with 'quadrangle buckshot' and FRAG-12 ammunition to destroy some computer mainframes and blow out a window, respectively.
A Remington 870 with a folding stock is used by Fiona on several occasions. One with the full stock and loaded with incendiary rounds is used by Mike to scare off the guards paroling the warehouse where Victor goes to get the Dragunov.
Seymour procures two Remington 870 shotguns for Mike and Fiona's assault on the bombers house. He remarks that he customized them himself, and that they are loaded, with the custom ammo he made for them. They are loaded with special water rounds used to destroy explosive devices without detonating them. They are the pistol grip versions without extended magazine tubes.
Mike uses the SIG SG 552 in Season 3's summer finale "Long Way Back" when he and Sam go to rescue Fiona. Also used by Mike in Season 3's "Friendly Fire" (S3E11) when he repelling out a window and in "Enemies Closer" (S3E13) with scope attached.
A pair of Heckler & Koch G36C rifles are used by Carla's henchmen to kill several unknown men in Season 2's "Breaking and Entering". Michael later acquires them to be planted on some mercenaries framing them for the murders.
Midway through Season 2, Fiona Glennanne (Gabrielle Anwar) is seen retrieving an M4A1 Carbine from the house of a gun-running friend, Seymour. The M4A1 has been modified with an RIS-style rail handguard, a vertical foregrip, a AN/PEQ-2 IR designator system and a red-dot sight. She is seen wielding it in a few episodes, but so far has not used the weapon.
An M4A1 fitted with an M203 grenade launcher, PEQ-2 IR pointer, Surefire light, red dot sight, and 3X magnifier was used by Mike's "old buddy" Harlan (Brian Van Holt), a Special Forces operator, in Episode 1 of Season 3 to fire into the windshield and engine block of an SUV to disable it during a snatch-and-grab op to kidnap a Venezuelan gangster.
In Season 2's "Rough Seas, one of the hijackers who steals a drug shipment for a fake heist is armed with an AKMSU. These weapons also appeared in many other episodes.
I don't think this is correct, at least based on the picture of the 700PSS provided. Look at the bolt handle, not what on a factory Remington 700. And the stock is too glossy and smooth looking to be a tactical rifle
Remington 700 with AICS
In Season 2's Double-Booked, Mike uses a Remington 700PSS mounted on an AICS with intentions to kill his former mentor Larry (Tim Matheson).
In the Season 2 premiere "Breaking and Entering", a H&K SL8 rifle is used by a mercenary to watch over a deal, but ends up incriminating him when the police arrive.
A M-1A with scope and Sage Stock was used by Fiona as a sniper rifle when she performed a fake assassination attempt on Campos in Season 1's "Turn and Burn." This rifle was first seen in Season 1's "Family Business", when the gun dealer Ari takes Michael to his armory. Michael specifically refers to it as a modified M1A for "Special Forces".
In Season 1's finale "Loose Ends, Part II", a Browning Automatic Rifle is used by Fiona, fitted with a sniper scope, to cover Sam and Mike as they escape from the boat where Sam was held captive. Note this is related only in name and designer to the M1918 BAR and its variants.
