The following weapons can be seen in this 1988 TV movie, based on a real life shootout that occurred in 1986:
Pistols
Smith and Wesson Model 459
Special Agent Ben Grogan (Ronny Cox) and Special Agent Jerry Dove (Bruce Greenwood) both carry 9mm Smith & Wesson Model 459 pistols as their sidearm. Agent Ron Risner is also armed with a 459.
Beretta 92F
In a continuity error, both Special Agent Jerry Dove (Bruce Greenwood) and Agent Ron Risner are seen with a Beretta 92F in some scenes.
Colt M1911A1
William Matix (Michael Gross) briefly uses a .45 M1911A1 pistol to steal a car by shooting it's owner. The M1911A1 is also used in the film when Platt and Matix break into the pinball machine salesman's home. It is later seen when Matix tells his wife to get out.
Unknown
The man that is shot by William Matix with a Colt Python is target practicing with an unknown pistol. It closely resembles the S&W 459, but there is never a close up shot.
Revolvers
Smith and Wesson Model 29
Michael Platt (David Soul) briefly uses a .44 Magnum Smith & Wesson Model 29 during the home invasion scene. After that, the revolver is never seen again.
Smith and Wesson Model 10
Agents who do not carry the Model 459 in this film carry a 4 inch Smith & Wesson Model 10 .38 revolver. Agent Ed Mirelles (Ronald G. Joseph) uses a Model 10 to fatally wound Matix and Platt as they attempt to flee the shootout. In the actual shootout Special Agent Gordon "Gordy" McNeill played by (Doug Sheehan) carried a 2.5 inch version of the .357 Magnum Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolver. The Model 19 was an approved personally owned weapon at the time of the shooting, and is listed in FBI documents as being approved for carry by SSA McNeill.
Smith & Wesson Model 36
John Hanlon (Peter McRobbie) uses the .38 caliber Smith & Wesson Model 36 revolver in the shootout scene, after his .357 revolver was knocked over during a collision with the other pursuit vehicles.
Smith & Wesson Model 686
Michael Platt (David Soul) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 686 to kill a man target shooting with a rifle at the beginning of the film, to steal his gold Monte Carlo. William Matix carries the Smith & Wesson Model 686 in a shoulder holster during the shootout. Michael Platt takes the revolver and attempts to shoot Agent Ed Mirelles with it, missing his head by inches before the gun misfires after 3 shots. In the actual shootout a Smith & Wesson Model 586 was used. But it was the Dan Wesson revolver that Platt pulled from Matix's shoulder holster. The Smith & Wesson Model 586 used first by Michael Platt at the beginning of the actual shootout, before switching to his Ruger Mini-14 rifle.
Colt Python
William Matix (Michael Gross) uses a Colt Python in an attempt to kill a man target shooting with a pistol to take his black Monte Carlo. It is never seen again. In the actual shootout a Dan Wesson revolver (which resembles the Colt Python) was used in addition to the Smith & Wesson Model 586.
Shotguns
Ithaca 37
William Matix (Michael Gross) uses a Ithaca 37 shotgun throughout the film. Michael Platt (David Soul) uses it to execute a guard who drew on them. In the film the barrel is cut down in front of the magazine tube. In the actual shootout Matix used a Smith & Wesson 3000 Shotgun that featured an extended magazine tube so the barrel would not have been cut down. Since neither had criminal records it would have been unwise to cut down below the legal 18" and also lose round capacity.
Remington 870
Several FBI agents are seen with the Remington 870 in the film. Notably Agent Ed Mirelles (Ronald G. Joseph) uses a Remington 870 to shoot Michael Platt in the leg as he tries to escape.
