The following guns were used in the film End of Days:

End of Days (1999)


Glock 34

Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzenegger) carries a Glock 34 as his sidearm throughout most of the film. Since this movie was filmed in 1998 and released in 1999, the Glock 34 was a brand new handgun at the time and is what is considered a "Hero Gun", a gun released exclusively for a film to advertise it. When the priests in the church try to explain to Jericho about the Devil and God, he remarks, "Between your faith and my Glock 9mm, I take my Glock." Another Glock aficionado movie.

Glock 34 - 9mm.
Jericho goes to pick up his Glock 34.
Jericho chambers his Glock 34.
Jericho contemplates suicide with his Glock 34 before his partner Bobby Chicago (Kevin Pollak) walks in.
Bobby notices Jericho's Glock 34 on the couch but chooses not to say anything.
Jericho searches Christine York's (Robin Tunney) house with his Glock 34 ready.
When Satan (Gabriel Byrne) shows Jericho a flashback to the Christmas day his family was murdered, he fires his Glock 34 at the assailants but to no avail.
Jericho looks at his Glock 34, shocked that the rounds have no effect.
When Satan picks up Jericho by the throat, he draws and fires his Glock 34 into him at close range, which has no effect.
When a member of the Roman Catholic church tries to kill Christine with a cerimonial dagger, Jericho shoots it with his Glock 34. When he goes to stab her again with the broken blade, he shoots his hand and remarks, "I can keep doing this all day."
Since there will always be skeptics who say Jericho's Glock has to be a 17L do to the time frame, here's a shot showing "34" "Austria" and "9x19mm" on the slide.
When the Satan worshippers outside the church attack Jericho, they knock his Glock 34 out of reach. When he finally grabs it to shoot Satan, he sticks his hand out and the bullet fires through his hand. Note how a direct beam of light, almost like a flashlight, is pointed on the Glock. Lighting issues?

Glock 26

Jericho Cane (Arnold Schwarzenegger) keeps a pair of Glock 26 subcompact 9mm pistols hidden in his sleeves on unseen clips, ready to whip out in a seconds notice. It would appear Jericho has a liking for Glock pistols (or the filmakers made a deal with the Glock company to advertise the guns in the film).

Glock 26 - 9mm.
Jericho pulls the slide back on his Glock 26 in the car.
Jericho releases the slide.
Jericho attachs the Glock 26 to a clip in his sleeve.
Jericho pulls his Glock 26s out from his sleeves when he rather obviously sticks his hands in his sleeves when ordered to put his hands above his head. He fires the Glocks akimbo style and uses them to kill Det. Margie Francis (CCH Pounder) and another officer when he learns they are Satan worshipers and try to kill him.
Jericho takes a pair of Glock 26s from the pistol rack at the police station before going to face Satan. This is the last time we see them used in the film.

Glock 17

After Jericho (Arnold Schwarzenegger) has his Glock 34 taken away by Satan (Gabriel Byrne), he goes to the police station and grabs a Glock 17 3rd Generation to use as his sidearm for the rest of the film. When fleeing Satan on the subway, Christine York (Robin Tunney) asks if she can help and Jericho quickly teachs her how to use the Glock and gives it to her. Since the Glock 3rd Generation was brand new at the time as well, this is another "Hero Gun". Starting to see a pattern with the 9mm Glocks here?

Glock 17 3rd Generation - 9mm.
When Jericho interupts Satan's ceromony, he holds Christine hostage with the Glock 17. Obviously he wouldn't kill her, but it is enough to keep Satan at bay for a minute, since he needs her alive.
Jericho teaches Christine how to use the sights on the Glock 17. This is kind of funny since he hadn't been using the sights in the film at all up to this point.
Even on the fly, he should have taught her some more basic gun handling techniques like to keep a two handed high grip, finger OFF the trigger until ready to shoot, and don't bend arms. It is a miracle she hits anything.
Jericho chambers the Glock for her. Why it wasn't chambered up until this point is unknown since he started out with this as his sidearm.
Christine whips the gun around and shoots a Satan worshiper on the train out of sheer luck.
Christine fires the Glock 17 at Satan under the train.

Glock 19

The officer seen standing next to Detective Margie Francis (CCH Pounder) is often seen armed with a Glock 19 compact 9mm. Det. Francis herself is seen using this gun to point at Jericho during Satan's ceromony before Jericho kills her. By now, the film has pretty much advertised every 9mm Glock in the series.

Glock 19 3rd Generation - 9mm.
When Det. Francis and the officer burst into Thomas Aquinas (Derrick O'Connor) home, the officer has his Glock 19 ready.
The officer shoots Thomas in the head with his Glock 19 when he jumps up after being presumed dead.
Det. Francis points a Glock 19 at Jericho during the ceromony before he kills her.

Heckler & Koch P7M13

Jericho's partner Bobby Chicago (Kevin Pollak) uses a double stack stainless Heckler & Koch P7M13 as his sidearm in the film.

Heckler & Koch P7M13 stainless - 9mm.
Chicago holsters his Heckler & Koch P7M13 after Jericho is shot in the vest by a sniper.
Chicago with his P7M13 follows Jericho so they can pursue the sniper by helicopter.
Most cops know not to point their gun in the direction of their partner.
Chicago holds up his P7M13 when Det. Francis and the other cops burst in.
Chicago fires his P7M13 at the Catholic church "knights" in Christine's house.
Chicago points his P7M13 at Jericho during the ceromony but even under Satan's oath, he can't kill his partner. Satan tells him he failed and returns him to the state he was in when he made the deal with him, on fire.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

Before going to face Satan (Gabriel Byrne), Jericho goes to the police station and grabs a Heckler & Koch MP5A3 fitted with a custom muzzle break and an M203 grenade launcher. The muzzle break is presumabley added so the muzzle flash doesn't burn the M203 launcher underneath. This is a custom built weapon since the M203 was never built to be underslung on the MP5, and obviously has little tactical value on a close quarters submachine gun when the rounds have to reach a certain distance before they detonate.

The Heckler & Koch MP5A3 rubber stunt prop used in the film for scenes in which the actor could damge the weapon or be injured by it or for just general comfort in scenes when the gun wasn't firing. This image is supplied by Propstore.com.
An officer in the subway tunnel is seen with what is likely the only normal MP5A3 in the film.
Jericho takes the Heckler & Koch MP5A3 fitted with an M203 launcher in the police station.
Jericho reloads his MP5A3 after shooting at the Satan worshipers chasing them. He then does the famous "bolt slap" on the locked open bolt.
Jericho fires his MP5A3 at Satan on the roof of the train, eyes closed.
Note how the bolt is locked up in this shot. Not the most useful way to use the gun.
Jericho waits for Satan in the church with his MP5A3.
Note how the front sight is bent in this scene. Someone was a little too rough with the equipment.

M203 grenade launcher

Fitted under Jericho's Heckler & Koch MP5A3 is an M203 grenade launcher. Before leaving the station, Jericho is seen grabbing three fiction "40mm" rounds, two of which are yellow and one of which is red. Based on how they are seen used in the film, the yellow rounds explode on impact while the red round has a delayed impact.

M203 grenade launcher - 40mm.
Jericho picks up two yellow rounds.
Jericho picks up one red round.
Jericho loads the M203 grenade launcher during Satan's ceromony.
Jericho shoots the gas main with the M203 launcher, which blows the place to hell (no pun intended).
This is not at all what a 40mm round looks like in mid-flight. This is more like a slow flying RPG round.
A nice shot of the M203 launcher.
This appears to be the rubber prop version pictured above.
Jericho fires a third shot with the red round to shoot Satan when he tries to jump from one train car to the next after Jericho splits them apart. When the round hits him, it doesn't blow up but instead knocks him back onto his train (which would never happen with a 40mm round) and then once he lands in the train, it blows up. Pretty crazy movie logic.
While waiting for Satan in the church, Jericho loads the M203 with an fourth round, even though he only took three. He then decides to trust faith instead and tosses the gun to the ground.

FN FAL Carbine

Thomas Aquinas (Derrick O'Connor ) uses an FN FAL carbine to try to assasinate The Man (Gabriel Byrne, pre-Satan) near the begining of the film, but Jericho saves the man and gets shot in the vest. In reality, soft body armor like Jericho's would not stop a .308 round very easily and would have likely pierced the vest. Aquinas abandons the gun when it malfunctions.

Smith & Wesson Model 66 snub

When Thomas is grabbed off the roof by Jericho, both suspended by a wire, Thomas draws a Smith & Wesson Model 66 snub and fires at him. He tries to use it to shoot Jericho in the subway but Jericho shoots him in the legs and he drops it.

Smith & Wesson Model 66 snub - .357 magnum.
Thomas draws his Smith & Wesson Model 66, which has snagged on his hobo drab.

Ruger Mk II suppressed

One of the thugs seen in the flashback in which Jericho's family is killed uses a Ruger Mk II Pistol fitted with a suppressor. The actor playing this thug is Sven-Ole Thorsen, who is good friends with Arnold Schwarzenegger and has appeared as extras in many of his films. You might recognize him as Gutzon in The Quick and the Dead (1995) and the Mongolian guy wielding two machine guns in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.
