Handguns
Smith & Wesson Sigma Subcompact
FBI Special Agent Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis ) carries as his sidearm throughout the film the Subcompact version of the Smith & Wesson Sigma . Near the end of the film, Art (Bruce Willis ) tells the FBI SWAT team leader (James MacDonald ) "I got a 9mm down on the sidewalk" , referring to his Sigma. This weapon is actually chambered in .380 ACP (9x17mm or 9mm Short), which would make this line of dialogue a slight inaccuracy.
