Note that all the screencaps are fairly low-grade. If someone can obtain higher-quality images to replace them with, that would be just peachy - Plus it could help to identify or confirm some of the weapons.
The following weapons are seen/used in the film Nothing But Trouble:
The most prominent weapon in the film, the Spectre M4 SMG is carried by Valkenvania Police Chief Constable Dennis Valkenheiser (John Candy), and used by Constable 'Miss Purdah' (Valri Bromfield). All the Spectres in this film have the foregrips and folding-stocks removed.
Interestingly enough, in one part of a scene, Miss Purdah has what appears to be a very close lookalike of an XM177E2 rifle. Perhaps possibly standing in for the CAR-15.

This was the last variant of the XM177 rifle used in the Vietnam War.Error creating thumbnail: File missingAn XM177E2 (or at least, an awfully close lookalike) is seen slung on Miss Purdah's back. Note the notch before the flash hider, and the somewhat short flash hider/suppressor itself.
Colt Detective Special
The drunk crook Arthur (Daniel Baldwin) pulls a later-made nickel-plated Colt Detective Special (unknown caliber) on Dennis, though it gets quickly knocked out of his hand. It is seen again a bit later in the courtroom on the desk of Judge Alvin Valkenheiser (Dan Aykroyd).
-- I don't know about you but if I'm still seeing straight, I'd say that ain't no rounded trigger-guard. So it's more likely a 92F. --Warejaws 13:52, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Bah, you're right - I can't believe I thought that was a rounded-guard.. so silly. I'll fix it up.
Walther PPK
Alvin's personal weapon appears to be a stainless Walther PPK pistol. The pistol in this film appears to have some kind of engraving on the slide.
Miss Purdah carries and fires a Ruger Mini-14 rifle with scope and stainless barrel/receiver at Chris and Diane as they escape the Valkenhesier Salvage towards a train.
When Chris and Diane have the State Police raid the Valkenheiser Salvage near the end of the film, some of the troopers carry what appear best to be standard Mossberg 500AT shotguns (wooden furniture), which I figure mainly because of the dual-action bars.

Note wood-grip and dual-action bars. The trooper on the left wields what appears to be a 1911-style pistol.
M16A1
Guardsmen accompany the State Troopers on the raid, and they are armed with M16A1 rifles with 20-round magazines.
Dual pistols carried by Miss Purdah in reverse-draw holsters. The distance plus low quality of the images makes them very difficult to identify, but I've added them anyway for the sake of completeness.
