Handguns

Glock 23

Boston PD Detective Thomas Craven (Mel Gibson) carries a Glock 23 as his sidearm throughout the film. He uses it on multiple occasions, most notably to dispatch some of Northmoor's private security personnel working for Jack Bennet (Danny Huston). When Craven enters David Burnham's apartment, the "23" slide markings are clearly visible. The Glock 23 is also the real life issue weapon of Boston Police Department's officers and detectives.

This is not a preferable method for Law Enforcement to enter a room or building, as a suspect lying in wait could easily grab the gun before the officer is through the door - which is exactly what happens to Craven.
