The following weapons are used in the movie Face/Off:

Face/Off (1997)

Beretta 92FS

Prison guards on the oil drill platform keep Beretta 92FS pistols as their sidearm. When Sean Archer/Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) escapes from the electroshock room, he takes a guards Beretta and uses it to fire on the guards, carefully placing his shots as not to kill them. During the final firefight Archer/Troy uses a pair of Berettas, wielding them akimbo as per the standard norm of John Woo films. Jamie (Dominique Swain) picks one of these up as Archer/Troy and Troy/Archer (John Travolta) struggle in the church's courtyard, only to be misled into shooting her father in the arm. Troy/Archer then picks the Beretta up and holds it on Jamie before she digs a stilleto knife into his leg, which he ironically gave her as a gift to protect herself.

Archer/Troy places his Beretta 92FS on the table in the funeral home.
Archer/Troy aims his Beretta 92FS during the "Mexican Standoff" in the funeral home, another trademark of John Woo (along with the doves flying all over the place).
During the shootout in the funeral home, many of the guns are shown in close ups, except they are at different locations than the scene takes place. This is because they are real guns (not blank adapted guns) firing real bullets in front of a highspeed camera, to capture the bullet in flight.
Archer/Troy fires a pair of Berettas at Troy/Archer.

Jamie aims the Beretta at Archer/Troy and Troy/Archer, unsure of who's who. Note the typical amatuer grip, with the thumb layered on top of the other (which is a good way to get slide bit), and both fingers wrapped around the trigger.
Troy/Archer holds the Beretta on Jamie after she makes the wrong choice and shoots her father in the arm.

Beretta 92FS Inox

A Beretta 92FS Inox is wielded by one of the police officers during the shootout at the airport. Castor Troy/Sean Archer (John Travolta) tries to draw one to use on Sean Archer/Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) while on the speed boat, but Archer/Troy kicks it away before he can use it.

Custom Springfield M1911-A1

Castor Troy's (Nicolas Cage) weapons of choice are two gold plated Springfield Armory M1911-A1s fitted with custom gold inlaid grips, that he keeps in two small-of-the-back holsters. Among the obvious modifications to the guns include skeletonized hammers, beavertail grip safeties, ambidextrous slide stop safeties, target sites, moderately bevelled magazine wells, and Mag-na-Ported slides/barrels. He uses them akimbo during the first major gunfight of the movie, putting a hole in the windshield the helicopter Sean Archer (John Travolta) is in and later gunning down several agents in the airport hangar. Later in the movie, when Archer has assumed Troy's identity and face, he is given these weapons by Dietrich (Nick Cassavettes). He then uses them for the proceeding gunfight as the police raid the building.

SIG-Sauer P226

Sean Archer (John Travolta) uses a SIG-Sauer P226 with a nickel slide as his sidearm in the film, using it during the film first gunfight. When he and Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) switch faces and identities, Troy/Archer begins using the weapon, killing Dietrich (Nick Cassevettes) and another FBI agent with it before he loses it during the church's "Mexican Standoff".

The thing is way too short to be a 59 series, so it's probably a 69 series. "Correct Sir that is a Smith and Wesson 6906 with a 12 +1 round capacity not a 5906.
