M4A1

The M4A1 carbine is used by many of the NSA security forces throughout the movie, most fitted with Surefire M500AB forearm weaponlights and is later carried by Agent Kyle Steele (Scott Speedman) during the scene at the Capitol, fitted with the aforementioned weaponlight and a Leupold CQ/T scope. The S.W.A.T. team sent to take down Stone at the mansion are also armed with M4A1s.

(Fake) Heckler & Koch XM8

General George Deckart (Willem Dafoe)'s soldiers are seen using Heckler & Koch XM8 rifles throughout the movie, which are actually heavily modified G36Ks made to look like XM8s. Some are seen with underbarrel M203 grenade launchers. One of these weapons is acquired by Darius during the scene at the Capitol.

Heckler & Koch USP Compact Tactical

General Deckart's right-hand man, Lt. Colonel Alabama Cobb (John G. Connolly), carries a Heckler & Koch USP Compact Tactical throughout the movie. Later in the film, Cobb gives this weapon to Deckart on the Presidential Bullet Train, and he uses it in the movie's finale.

"Bama" Cobb pointing a Heckler & Koch USP Compact Tactical at Gibbons. An interesting goof to point out is that Cobb is referred to as a Sergeant and Lieutenant Colonel. However because of his background as a US Navy Seal. Cobb would not be able to have either ranks. The USN equivalent to Sergeant is Petty Officer Second Class and USN equivalent to Lieutenant Colonel is Commander.

Colt XSE M1911

Agent Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) has a customized Stainless Colt XSE M1911 pistol, which he loses and Darius finds on the floor of the mansion.

This is the screen used Colt XSE M1911 Pistol, wielded, carried (and lost) by August Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) in the film. This pistol has a customized slide with the initials "A G" etched (for "Augustus Gibbons") and also has the logo for SEAL TEAM 4 in the center - .45 ACP

August Gibbons' Customized Colt XSE Pistol is found lying on the floor of the mansion, which Stone realizes was used to kill Pettibone.

M203

The M203 grenade launcher is seen mounted on the XM8 rifles. Darius Stone Ice Cube is later seen using this weapon on the Bullet Train. The M203 is modified with a handle so it it can be used as a stand alone weapon.
