Patriot Games (1992)

Patriot Games is the 1992 thriller starring Harrison Ford as CIA analyst Jack Ryan, who in this film must thwart a IRA splinter terrorist who wants revenge for the death of his brother that Ryan unknowingly killed. Ford would reprise the Ryan role in the 1994 film Clear and Present Danger.

The following weapons were used in the film Patriot Games:

Handguns

Heckler & Koch P9S

During the attempted kidnapping of Lord Holmes, Sean Miller (Sean Bean) is seen using a Heckler & Koch P9S to shoot at the drivers of Holmes' car. Jack Ryan (Harrison Ford) later takes this gun from Miller and uses it to stop the massacre, in the process killing Miller's brother.

"Pre-B" CZ 75

Kevin O'Donnell (Patrick Bergin) uses a Czech "Pre-B" CZ 75 pistol when he breaks Sean Miller out of police custody. He gives it to Miller, who uses it to execute the surviving police before leaving.

Beretta 92FS

The Beretta 92FS appears several times in the movie. During the scene in Libya, one of the IRA terrorists is seen firing one, and then Annette (Polly Walker) comes over and tells him to spread his feet further while he shoots. Another is wielded by one of the DSS Agents who goes into the basement in the climax. Annette is seen using one when Dr. Ryan takes her Uzi. The Beretta 92FS (as the M9) is the standard pistol of the US Marine Corps. A Marine Guard shoots dead an IRA assassin in Annapolis with his M9. Promotional material for the film (including as the above poster) shows Dr. Ryan brandishing a Beretta 92FS, but he never uses one on screen.

Annette instructs a terrorist in the use of a Beretta 92FS.

Model 1934 or 1935 Beretta

Geoffrey Watkins (Hugh Fraser) uses a suppressed Model 1934 or 1935 Beretta to kill one of the DSS Guards at Dr. Ryan's home during his daughter's homecoming celebration, Ryan later takes the pistol and shoots Watkins in the leg with it to try and get him to talk, and then gives it to Lt. Commander Robby Jackson (Samuel L. Jackson), who uses it during the fight in Dr. Ryan's home. The pistol is a Model 1934 or 1935 Beretta (Italian Navy and other European military groups used them, cals .380ACP/9mm Corto and 7.65mm). The 'Cheetah' moniker is applied only to more recent commercial Beretta firearms, such as the 80-series (84,85,86, etc.).

Watkins aims his Model 1934 or 1935 Beretta at the DSS Agent going into the basement.

Jack Ryan holds Watkins' own Beretta on him.

Lt. Cmdr. Jackson wields the Beretta in the basement.

Browning Hi-Power

The IRA assassin who is sent to kill Jack Ryan at the Naval Academy wields a Browning Hi-Power fitted with a suppressor. Another Browning Hi-Power (without a suppressor) is wielded by one of the IRA gunmen sent to kill Kevin O'Donnell in his home, and yet another can be seen in the hands of a terrorist training in Libya. Annette (Polly Walker) also carries one during the assault on the Ryan home, and points it at Miller before he guns her down with his Uzi.

Rifles & Carbines

L85A1 Rifle

In the beginning of the film, soldiers of the Scots Guards at Buckingham Palace can be seen with their L85A1 service rifles fitted with bayonets and protective vinyl coverings over the SUSAT scopes and handguards (customary for Royal guards). During the scene in Belfast, members of the Parachute Regiment can also be seen wielding L85A1s.

AKM/AKMS

The favorite weapon of the Provisional Irish Republican Army throughout the film are AKM and AKMS assault rifles. One of the terrorists is seen using an AKMS during the attempted kidnapping earlier in the film, and more AKMS rifles are used by the group that frees Sean Miller from captivity. In another scene, many Provos are seen firing AKM (fixed stock) rifles while training at a terrorist camp in Libya. Later, Dennis Cooley (Alex Norton) is killed with one of these weapons by Sean Miller after he is unable to fire it, demonstrating his incompetence.

Sean Miller demonstrates the wonders of the AKM's safety to Dennis Cooley ... and then fires it at Cooley's feet.

Submachine Guns

Uzi

The PIRA terrorists also favor IMI Uzi submachine guns throughout the film. Sean Miller uses one to shoot at Jack Ryan's wife Cathy (Anne Archer) and daughter Sally (Thora Birch) during the attempted freeway killing. Miller can also be seen practicing with an Uzi in Libya. Later, all of the terrorists who attempt to kill Ryan in his house and capture Lord Holmes are seen using Uzis. Ryan commandeers Annette's Uzi and uses it during the fight in his home.

Heckler & Koch MP5A2

When Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) officers make their raid on an IRA bomb factory in Belfast, some of them can be seen carrying Heckler & Koch MP5A2 submachine guns. Theirs have "slimline" handguards and the old-style "waffle"-type straight magazines. DSS Agents outside Dr. Ryan's house and a Hostage Rescue Team responding to the IRA attack on Dr. Ryan's home can also be seen with MP5A2s, although theirs appear to have the wide-type forearms and curved magazines.

Shotguns

Armsel Striker

When defending himself against the IRA gunmen sent to kill him for disobeying his Brigade Commander's orders and attacking Lord Holmes, Kevin O'Donnell (Patrick Bergin) can be seen using an Armsel Striker cylinder shotgun, killing all three of his would-be assassins.
