Salt is a 2010 action film directed by Philip Noyce (Clear and Present Danger) and starring Angelina Jolie as Evelyn Salt, a CIA agent who finds herself being accused of being a Russian sleeper agent. She finds herself questioning her loyalties as she goes on the run to clear her name.
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a SIG-Sauer P229 in multiple scenes set in the President’s Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), and most notably in the film’s final climactic battle sequence between Evelyn and CIA Agent Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber). The SIG 229 was also the primary weapon used by Agent Peabody (Chiwetel Ejiofor) throughout the film.
TRIVIA: During the filming of the final battle sequence between Salt and Winter, Ms. Jolie sustained a minor injury on the set and had to be rushed to the hospital. The crew continued filming POV shots until she returned. The on set armorer stood in for Ms. Jolie in several shots to help Liev Shrieber establish a realistic line of sight and also fired the Sig 229 in an additional scene where the gun had to be fired to create a muzzle flash at the edge of the camera frame (see the sales page for the screen used SIG 229, here.)
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a Beretta 92F pistol in the pivotal sequence aboard the Russian barge when Salt meets with the evil mastermind Orlov (Daniel Olbrychski) and his group of Russian “K-A Program” agents. After her loyalty is tested, Orlov reveals the details of his master plan to her right before she escapes using this weapon to fight her way off of the barge. (see the sales page for the actual screen used Beretta 92F, here).
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) carries a Glock 19 pistol in multiple scenes during the sequence that takes place in the crypt underneath St. Bart’s cathedral in New York when Evelyn goes after the President of Russia. She uses this weapon notably during the scene where Salt shoots the cathedral organ. The weapon is featured in one of the official studio trailers for the movie, and she can also be seen holding a version of this Glock in a promotional image on the official website. (see the sales page for the actual screen used Glock 19, here.)
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a SIG-Sauer P232 pistol in multiple scenes throughout the film, and the gun first appears onscreen when she returns home and retrieves it from its hiding place underneath a table in her apartment before using it in the extended freeway chase sequence near the beginning of the film. The gun appears again on the bed of her hotel room when she colors her hair to change her appearance, and also during the sequence that takes place in the crypt underneath St. Bart’s cathedral in New York when Evelyn goes after the President of Russia. Scenes from the sequence are also featured in two of the official studio trailers for the film. (see the sales page for the actual screen used SIG 232, here.)
One of the agents that breaks into Salt's home is seen with a Heckler & Koch MP5A3 fitted with Surefire 628 dedicated forend weaponlight. Some NYPD SWAT officers are also seen with these. Salt also uses an MP5A3 (with no Surefire grip) in the pivotal sequence aboard the Russian barge when Salt meets with the evil mastermind Orlov (Daniel Olbrychski) and his group of Russian “Program K-A” agents. After her loyalty is tested, Orlov reveals the details of his master plan to her right before she begins fighting her way off of the barge. During this sequence she kills one of the Russians and uses his machine gun as she continues her escape
Secret Service agents at the White House are armed with Heckler & Koch MP5K submachine guns. Ted Winter (Liev Schreiber) uses an MP5K in the scene inside the President’s Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) when he pulls the gun from the PEOC armory case and kills almost everyone inside before confronting the President. Afterwards he throws the gun across the room before knocking out the President
Several CIA tactical unit members can be seen with Colt Model 933s, distinguished from the aforementioned M4A1s by their shorter barrels. Secret Service CAT members are also seen using M933s at the VP's funeral.
Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) uses a SIG SG 552 with a RIS handguard in the climactic sequence that takes place beneath the White House in and around the “President’s Emergency Operations Center” (PEOC). Salt uses the weapon with both folded and extended stock positions in several scenes.
Salt takes a X26 taser from a NYPD officer after being arrested in New York, using it to tase the driver of the vehicle she is in and to flee police custody.
