The following weapons are seen in the movie The Octagon:

Handguns

M1911

The French police officer (J. Ross Imler) used an M1911-style pistol to shoot a terrorist during the shootout in Paris. The driver-bodyguard also has a M1911-style pistol.

Pre-War Colt M1911A1 Pistol Commercial - .45 ACP.

The police officer fires his pistol at the terrorists.

The driver is shot before he could open fire.

Handguns in the scene of the night shootout

During the night shootout McCarn's and Doggo's men use different pistols and revolvers, all of them suppressed. Most of this weapon are never seen well enough to be identified.

Madsen M50

Madsen M50 with an unusual (possibly fake) barrel shroud is used by female terrorist (Janette Jiliano) in Paris. It's hard to say what is the purpose of the shroud; maybe it was in mind to be a suppressor but the sound is common, unsuppressed.
