E-Ring was a military drama series that ran for one season in the US on NBC from 2005 to 2006. Executive produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the series followed the activities of the Special Operations Division of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, located in the outermost ring of the Pentagon, aka the "E-Ring".
The cast included Benjamin Bratt as Major (later Colonel) James Tisnewski and Dennis Hopper as Colonel Eli McNulty.
The following weapons were used in the television series E-Ring:
The Beretta 92FS is used by U.S Marine Zachary McPhearson (Stacy Meadows) to hold off an angry mob in S01E05, "Weekend Pass", after he and his friend are falsely accused of raping a young girl in Suriname. Iraqi soldiers training to be presidential bodyguards also use Berettas in S01E19, "Brothers in Arms".
Glock 17 pistols are frequently used by main cast members, including Major James Tisnewski (Benjamin Bratt), Captain Bobby Wilkerson (Kerr Smith) and Sergeant Charlie Guitierrez (Maurice Compte). Angie Aronson (Kate Oldershaw) also uses a Glock 17 when she prepares to assassinate Colombian drug lord Alejandro Aguilar in S01E08, "Cemetery Wind (2)".
Glock 19 pistols are also often shown throughout the series in the hands of the main cast members. CIA agent John Haines (Matthew Glave) also carries a Glock 19 in S01E10, "The Forgotten", as does an MI6 agent in S01E12, "The Breath of Allah".
A Heckler & Koch USP Tactical is used by a Special Forces soldier to shoot arms dealer Sergei Dima in S01E06, "Toy Soldiers". According to JT, the pistol is supposed to be a "SMN-6", a non-lethal tranquilizer gun.
Maya (Yasmine Delawari) uses a Kel-Tec PLR-16 Pistol with a mock suppressor and EOTech holographic weapon sight during a Special Forces operation in S01E21, "Isolation" and S01E22, "Acceptable Losses".
A Bosnian Serb kidnapper in S01E13, "War Crimes", is armed with a SIG-Sauer P228. JT also uses a P228 while interrogating prisoners in S01E20, "Hard Cell".
JT uses a Mossberg 500 Cruiser to shoot a Christian fundamentalist during S01E09, "Delta Does Detroit". Bobby uses another 500 Cruiser as a breaching weapon in S01E13, "The Breath of Allah".
Heckler & Koch MP5A2 submachine guns with Surefire forends are used by FBI agents responding to the seizure of a mosque in S01E09, "Delta Does Detroit".
Suppressed Heckler & Koch MP5A3s are used by Bobby and Charlie during a mission to assassinate a Colombian drug lord in S01E08, "Cemetery Wind Part 2". MP5A3s with Surefire forends are also used by JT and FBI agents in "Delta Does Detroit."
Heckler & Koch MP5Ks are used by American special forces operatives during a mission to seize a terrorist in Uzbekistan in S01E02, "Snatch and Grab". In S01E15, "Five Pillars", JT's team are all armed with MP5Ks during a abortive mission in Pakistan.
Scoped and suppressed Heckler & Koch UMP submachine guns are used by Special Forces soldiers raiding Sergei Dima's Transnistrian villa in S01E06, "Toy Soldiers".
An Uzi submachine gun is seen on a table during a police raid of an Amsterdam brothel in S01E13, "The Breath of Allah". In S01E21, "Isolation", an Uzi is also seen in the bloody aftermath of a gunfight on the Texas-Mexico border.
AKM rifles are used by Iraqi insurgents who capture JT during an ambush in S01E03, "Escape and Evade". After being taken across the border to Iran, JT seizes an AKM from his captors and uses it when fleeing from soldiers of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Norinco Type 56 rifles are seen throughout the series in the hands of antagonists. An interesting modification is seen during S01E11, "Christmas Story", when a Taliban militant fires a Type 56 with a Romanian-style wooden foregrip.
Several Taliban militants are armed with Norinco Type 56-1 rifles in S01E11, "Christmas Story". In S01E16 - "Fallen Angels", Charlie uses a Type 56-1 before being knocked out by a survivor of an aid plane crash who was in reality a mercenary. JT later retrieves the Type 56-1 and uses it to engage Venezuelan soldiers as the Americans escape.
One of the Serbian gunmen working for Petrovich (Ilia Volok) carries an AK-74M with a GP-30, drum magazine and a scope in S01E13, "War Crimes". The same weapon was also briefly seen being handed to an Afghan villager at the end of S01E11, "Christmas Story".
In S01E13, "War Crimes", a Serbian gunman is armed with a AKS-74U carbine with a laser device and a scope. JT, Bobby and several other Special Forces soldiers also use AKS-74Us in S01E16, "Fallen Angels". Although used for reasons of plausible deniability, the choice seems strange since Venezuela does not use 5.45mm weapons.
Pakistani SSG commandos are armed with FN FAL 50.63 paratrooper rifles in S01E15, "Five Pillars". Mexican cartel snipers are also armed with scoped FN FAL 50.63s in episodes 21 and 22.

The use of the FN FAL is inaccurate, since Pakistani troops use domestically-manufactured versions of Heckler & Koch or Norinco weapons in real life.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA Nuevo Laredo cartel gunman opens fire with a FAL 50.63 in S01E21, "Isolation".

SIG SG 551 rifles with red dot sights and suppressors are used by JT and CIA agent Danny Marco (Gonzalo Menendez) to shoot Alejandro Aguilar's bodyguards in S01E08, "Cemetery Wind Part 2".
In "Delta Does Detroit", JT and Bobby circumvent the Christian fundamentalists' pressure plate bomb by using a THOR XM408 to fire an uranium-tipped bullet through the roof of the mosque, killing the gunman standing on the plate and preventing his body from setting off the explosives.
I just thought I'd ask but are we sure this is the cheytac m-200? I was just reading up on the rifle and it's derived from the EDM Arms Windrunner M96 which might be the rifle depicted. Just wondering
