Olympus Has Fallen is a 2013 action film that stars Gerard Butler as Mike Banning, a disgraced Secret Service agent who must rescue the President of the United States (Aaron Eckhart) from North Korean terrorists who have seized the White House. Directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, Shooter) the film was released in the US on March 22, 2013, ahead of the similarly-themed thriller White House Down.

The following weapons were used in the film Olympus Has Fallen:

Handguns

SIG-Sauer P229

Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) and other Secret Service agents, including Agent Roma (Cole Hauser), use current-production SIG-Sauer P229 pistols as their sidearms. Banning uses the P229 during the initial attack on the White house, but later discards it after running out of ammunition. Kang Yeonsak (Rick Yune), leader of the North Korean terrorists, is also seen wielding a P229. Former Agent Dave Forbes (Dylan McDermott) also uses the P229 as his sidearm.

Some of the North Koreans who invade the White House are armed with Glock 17 pistols. Metropolitan Police Department officers use Glocks while battling the terrorists.
