S.W.A.T.: Firefight

S.W.A.T.: Firefight (2011)

S.W.A.T.: Firefight is a 2011 DTV sequel to the film S.W.A.T. (2003). In this film (which is a sequel in name only), LAPD SWAT officer Paul Cutler (Gabriel Macht) is assigned to train officers of the Detroit Police Department in the latest tactics. The story for this film was co-written by three former LAPD SWAT Officers.

The following weapons were used in the film S.W.A.T.: Firefight:

Handguns

IMI/Magnum Desert Eagle Mark XIX

A Desert Eagle Mark XIX is held by a thug in the opening scene. He fires into the air to scare the people and later holds it on a hostage.

SIG-Sauer P226R

Sgt. Paul Cutler (Gabriel Macht) carries a SIG-Sauer P226R as his sidearm in the film. Some of the LAPD officers and Detroit SWAT officers also use P226s.

Smith & Wesson 5906

Walter Hatch (Robert Patrick) uses a Smith & Wesson 5906 throughout most of the film which is somewhat amusing considering it's a very popular cop gun.

SIG-Sauer P229

Walter Hatch uses a SIG-Sauer P229 with a nickel-plated slide during the office scene. When he is disarmed, his hostage Rose (Kristanna Loken) picks the gun up. Some LAPD and SWAT officers use standard P229s as their sidearms in the film.

Rose (Kristanna Loken) holds the SIG P229.

The pistol is fired. It appears that an actual round is ejected, but the muzzle flash is CGI-enhanced. Due to the close proximity to an actual person, it's likely that the gun was pointed at a fake head.

SIG-Sauer P229 - 9x19mm

Justin Kellogg (Nicholas Gonzalez) tries to fire his P229 while his right arm is weighted down (simulating a wound to his arm).

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Alongside the Colt Law Enforcement Carbine, S.W.A.T. Officers also use Heckler & Koch MP5A3s equipped with KAC railed forends and SureFire M900A weaponlight foregrip unit throughout the movie. Cutler also uses one during the final shootout.

Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical

In the opening scene, a thug was using a sawed off Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical and SWAT officers later on use regular 887 Nitro Mag Tacticals. This could potentially be the first film appearance of the Remington Model 887.

Rifles

Bushmaster ACR Carbine

Sgt. Paul Cutler (Gabriel Macht) uses a Bushmaster ACR Carbine as his primary. The EOTech is clearly put on backwards in several scenes. This could potentially be the first film appearance of the ACR.

Colt Law Enforcement Carbine

Many S.W.A.T. Officers use variants of the Colt Law Enforcement Carbine throughout the movie with a variety of sights and gear attached to them. The Detroit SWAT team was later seen using training models that shoot paintballs.

Sniper Rifles

M24 Sniper Weapon System

Officer Watters uses a M24 Sniper Weapon System when tasked as the sniper. He then uses it again during training.

Barrett M107

Walter Hatch (Robert Patrick) uses an Barrett M107 at a shooting range to scare Cutler. For some reason he charged the handle for every shot. It might or might not be for dramatic effort or the blanks they used didn't cycle semi-automatically. It's also possible that they didn't have any actual blanks and used special effects for the muzzle blast.

Desert Tactical Arms Stealth Recon Scout

SWAT Officer Lori Barton (Shannon Kane) uses a Desert Tactical Arms Stealth Recon Scout throughout the film in her role as sniper. Officer Mundy also used it during training.
