This gun is from The Specialists Ltd., and is listed on their site here. They list it as an Armalite AR-10 but it clearly isn't. Rather, it is a DPMS of some sort, probably a DPMS Panther LRT SASS. In fact, I believe it is the exact same gun pictured on that page just fitted with different accessories (the wear pattern on the brass deflector is identical). --commando552 (talk) 17:18, 23 January 2015 (EST)

The submachine gun seems to be a MAC-10 mock up (no cocking handle). The last handgun seems to be a Walther P99 --Glock20 10mm (talk) 06:25, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

Cobray comes to mind. Ominae (talk) 07:04, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

The top two look like a Ruger P=series. --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:46, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

Second pic is, but the first one is a 2nd gen S&W auto of some sort. It looks to have a short barrel so my guess would be a Smith & Wesson 469. Our stock image has an ambi safety, but I believe that earlier versions had the left side only safety which appears to be the gun used here (example). To me the SMG looks more like a MAC-11 rather than a Cobray (receiver isn't long enough and the cocking handle is a tall notched one rather than the flat disc of the Cobray), but am pretty sure it is a scratch built mock up as the style of the rear sight is wrong for any MAC or clone, the barrel looks weird, the receiver looks more like a solid block than a separate upper and lower, and the ejection port is too close to the bottom of the receiver. As for the last pistol, I think it is a Heckler & Koch P30 (might also be a P2000, but from the apparently sloped front of the frame I am more inclined to say a P30). --commando552 (talk) 10:40, 30 October 2014 (EDT)Pic#3 is a Para-Ordinance Model 85 paintball gun --fazerix (talk) 5:20, 5 Novemberber 2014 (EDT)--

Walther

"Wingman" (S4E03)

It is a Walther P88 Compact. More precisely, I believe that it is an Umarex blank fire replica, as is every other appearance of a stainless finish P88 compat along with the stock image we use:

It has several differences from a real one in terms of the hammer, slide markings and slide stop notch. Also, I cannot find a single picture of a real P88 Compact with a stainless finish, so I believe that if one turns up it is a safe bet that it is this replica. --commando552 (talk) 04:54, 9 October 2014 (EDT)

Blank firing ?

Did anyone notice that there is no shell ejection when the charcters fire their guns ? Mags seems to be sometimes empty after only a few rounds, the slide doesn't lock back but the gun clicks empty. When Reese fires his P226, even if he cocks the hammer before, the gun seems to be DAO, like if the actor was dry firing the gun. --Glock20 10mm (talk) 05:58, 30 October 2014 (EDT)

It seems more and more common that the actors are not actually firing blanks and the muzzle flashes added digitally. This is probably due to safety and budgetary reasons. --Ben41 (talk) 13:47, 23 January 2015 (EST)

I've noticed this as well, it used to happen fairy infrequently (being fired close to actors etc), but this season it seems to be the baseline , they don't even seem to have blowback airsoft or anything (what are they like $80?!?), just toy guns with muzzle flashes added in in post production, and not even added in well, they look like they where added in with Photoshop. I've seen YouTubers with better post production than this season. --RedRobinAlpha (talk) 12:20, 26 March 2015 (GMT)

XM109

From the looks of it, the actual gun in the show is a 50 cal with a big fake plastic shell placed over the real magazine, you can see it's just a solid box and doesn't have a tapered front like the real one does. Evil Tim (talk) 03:38, 22 May 2015 (EDT)
