The [[Smith_%26_Wesson_4506|4506]], probably a 1st generation,  is the gun carried by Engelman ([[William Fichtner]]). However, in the final scenes it seems that his gun was switched for a [[Smith_%26_Wesson_5900_pistol_series|Smith & Wesson 5906]]. For the gun is picked up by Mace, this would seem a wise choice, since the 4506 would look way too big in Mace's hands. However, in the screenshot where Mace picks up the S&W, it seems to be a different model. Not sure which one.

Glock 23

A Glock 23 is the gun carried by Lenny Nero (Ralph Fiennes). The gun is identified as a Glock 23 by Max Peltier (Tom Sizemore) in the final scenes. Earlier in the film, Lenny is seen using a Glock 17 (as discussed below), and even puts the gun into a duffle bag with a box of .40-caliber ammunition, but the gun does not become an actual Glock 23 until the later scenes of the film.

Glock 17

Lenny Nero picks up a Glock 17 from under his bed after realizing that an intruder is in his house. He is later seen loading the gun into a bag with a box of .40-caliber ammunition, indicating that the Glock 17 is substituting in the scene for the Glock 23 that he uses later.
