Cold War (Chinese Title: 寒戰) is a 2012 Hong Kong police thriller directed by Sunny Luk and Longman Leung. After five HKPF officers are taken hostage by a mysterious gang of kidnappers during a routine patrol, rival deputy police commissioners Sean Lau (Aaron Kwok) and Waise Lee (Tony Leung Ka Fai) fight to take control of the rescue operation, codenamed "COLD WAR". While attempting to free the hostages, Lau and Lee are unwittingly drawn into a larger, more sinister conspiracy within the Hong Kong Police Department.

The following weapons are featured in the 2012 film Cold War:

Handguns

SIG-Sauer P250 Compact

The SIG-Sauer P250 Compact is used by senior HKPF officers throughout the film, including Deputy Commissioners Sean Lau (Aaron Kwok) and Waise Lee (Tony Leung Ka Fai), as well as Senior Superintendents Albert Kwong (Gordon Lam Ka-tung) and Vincent Tsui (Chin Kar-Lok). Head kidnapper and ex-cop Chan Bun (Byron Mann) also uses a P250 in a later scene. In real life, the SIG-Sauer P250 Compact (DCc) is the standard sidearm of HKPF officers in the criminal investigation units, having replaced the Colt Detective Special revolver.
