Rush Hour is a 1998 American action comedy starring Jackie Chan as Lee, an inspector of the Hong Kong Police Force who travels to Los Angeles in order to investigate the kidnapping of the daughter of a Chinese diplomat. Upon his arrival, Lee is paired with James Carter (Chris Tucker), an LAPD detective whose real assignment is to keep Lee away from the investigation. Together, they discover the conspiracy behind the crimes they are investigating. The film was directed by Brett Ratner and would spawn two sequels: 2001's Rush Hour 2 and 2007's Rush Hour 3 as well as a 2016 television series adaptation.
The following weapons were used in the film Rush Hour:
LAPD Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) carries a Beretta 92FS Inox as his sidearm throughout the film. Sang (Ken Leung) also uses one fitted with a compensator. When Carter attempts to stop Chief Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) from getting to the Chinese consulate, Carter draws a Beretta on Lee before being disarmed and held at gunpoint with his own gun by Lee. Carter then pulls out his back-up Beretta 92FS and draws it on Lee before a cab driver (Gene LeBell) draws his own Beretta 92FS on the duo.
The Beretta 92FS is used by several characters including FBI Special Agent Dan Whitney (Rex Linn). Two LAPD officers draw their Berettas when they mistake Carter for a criminal. Chief Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) holds and even disassembles one. Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) also has a 92FS as his back-up weapon and notably points it during the standoff with Lee before a cab driver (Gene LeBell) pulls out his own 92FS and points it at Lee and Carter. It should be noted that the FBI has never authorized the Beretta 92FS for use by its agents. During the film's time period, FBI agents carried the SIG-Sauer P226 or SIG-Sauer P228, like Agent Warren Russ (Mark Rolston).
At the beginning of the film, Chief Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) can be seen wielding a 2nd Generation Glock 17 while chasing Sang (Ken Leung) in Hong Kong. Other FBI agents are also armed with the Glock. During the final shootout, a Chinese gangster can be seen hastily reloading a Glock 17 before being disarmed by Inspector Lee.
FBI Special Agent In Charge Warren Russ (Mark Rolston) carries a SIG-Sauer P226 as his sidearm. During the final shootout, another FBI agent can be seen firing a P226.
At the beginning of the film, Clive Cobb (Chris Penn) attempts to take Detective Carter (Chris Tucker) hostage with a two-tone Browning Hi-Power when two cops arrive.
LAPD bomb expert Tania Johnson (Elizabeth Peña) carries the Smith & Wesson 3913 as her weapon of choice. She is seen pulling it from a thigh holster and using it during the final shootout at the Chinese art exhibition.
During the final shootout, Commander Thomas Griffin / Juntao (Tom Wilkinson) is seen using a silver Colt M1911A1 pistol while he attempts to escape. He later discards it by throwing it off the catwalk top.
What appears to be a Taurus PT92AFS is used by a Chinese gangster confronted by Lee during the shootout in the convention center. Lee ejects the magazine and the round in the chamber from a thug's Taurus during a close combat fight.
During the final shootout, Sang (Ken Leung) is seen wielding a MAC-10 with the folding stock removed and has snaps for DeSantis Uzi & MAC shoulder rig. The weapon was supplied by Ellis Mercantile.
One of the FBI SWAT agents raiding the first ransom point can be seen with a Benelli M1 Super 90 shotgun with rifle sights and a Surefire forend. The weapon was supplied by Ellis Mercantile.
When Lee (Jackie Chan) is mistaken for an intruder at the Chinese consulate, one of the FBI agents responding to the situation can be seen carrying a Savage Model 11/111 rifle.
