Broken Arrow (1996)

Broken Arrow is a 1996 action thriller from director John Woo and stars John Travolta as Major Vic Deakins, a USAF stealth pilot who with the help of a group of well-financed mercenaries hijacks his B-3 stealth bomber carrying two live nuclear weapons. Christian Slater co-stars as Capt. Riley Hale, his co-pilot, who survives the hijacking and teams up with US Park Ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis) to recover the nukes that Deakins promises to use unless his demands are met.

The following weapons were used in the movie Broken Arrow:

Handguns

Beretta 92FS (Stainless Slide)

Major Vic Deakins (John Travolta) uses a Beretta 92FS with a stainless slide to try to kill Capt. Riley Hale (Christian Slater) before he hijacks the B-3 stealth bomber. Hale sees Deakins' reflection in the window while he is drawing the gun and quickly reacts to grab the gun. As Hale struggles to grab the gun from Deakins, a round is fired, narrowly missing Hale.

Beretta 92FS - 9mm

Hale gets his helmet visor blown off with Deakins' Beretta. Note the extremely large flash, but the gun's slide doesn't move.

Beretta 92FS

Chief Sam Rhodes (Vondie Curtis-Hall) uses a Beretta 92FS standing in for the standard-issue Beretta M9 handgun during the canyon shootout. Kelly (Howie Long) also is seen with a Beretta. Riley Hale (Christian Slater) is seen with two Beretta's - one which he loses in the B-3 stealth bomber, and one when saving Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis). When they are cornered by one of Deakins' men, he drops the gun only to grab Terry's hidden SIG-Sauer P228.

A Beretta 93R is the main handgun of Vic Deakins (John Travolta) during the train shootout.

Deakins holds the 93R on Terry. Note that the slide lock is tilted up, meaning that the magazine in the pistol is empty.

Smith & Wesson Model 66

US Park Ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis) uses a 4" barreled Smith & Wesson Model 66 with Hogue grips as her sidearm. Hale is able to take it from her and then uses it throughout the film.

Park Ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis) draws her S&W 66 on Hale.

Hale wrestles the S&W away and holds it on Carmichael.

In a classic John Woo scene, the two face off as Carmichael pulls her knife and Hale aims the S&W.

After they call a truce, Hale hands the S&W back to Terry.

SIG-Sauer P226

Baker (James MacDonald), one of Deakins' men, uses a suppressed SIG-Sauer P226, while posing as a park ranger, to shoot an elderly couple camping in the park. He then fires this pistol (without the suppressor) at Hale, without effect, then points it at Terry, before Hale shoots him in the thigh, takes away the pistol and shoves him out the door. Hale then uses this gun and Terry's Smith and Wesson for much of the mine shootout.

SIG-Sauer P226 - 9x19mm

Baker (James MacDonald) opens fire with the suppressed SIG P226.

SIG-Sauer P228

Terry picks up a SIG-Sauer P228 from Max (Shaun Toub) after she encounters him on the train. When the finale begins, Terry and Hale both use the gun at one point or another.
