End of Watch
Theatrical Release Poster
End of Watch is a 2012 cop thriller starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña as a pair of LAPD officers who find themselves the target of a merciless drug cartel. The film is in part seen through the video footage shot from the camera the officers carry wherever they go as well as by the cartel's own cameras. The film was directed by David Ayer (Training Day ), who insisted that Gyllenhaal and Pena go on numerous ridealongs with actual LAPD officers.
The following weapons were used in the film End of Watch :
Glock 22
LAPD officers in the film, including Police Officer II Brian Taylor (Jake Gyllenhaal ) and Police Officer II Zavala (Michael Peña ), carry Glock 22s fitted with Surefire X300 weapon lights.

Something worth noting is that both officers appear to be correctly wearing body armor underneath their uniforms, which is a rarity in many police films. These were actual ballistic vests and not props, as insisted by the director.
AKMS
A number of criminals in the film use AKMS rifles. Officer Zavala can also be seen with a gold plated AKMS with faux ivory furniture which he finds during a traffic stop. According to director David Ayer, the gold AKMS was a painted airsoft replica.
