The [[Beretta 92 pistol series|Beretta 92FS]] is one of the most frequently used guns in the film. Lou ([[Christopher Lambert]]) is seen using four different Beretta pistols, including one taken from African-American thug named Blondie (Jahi J.J. Zuri); three of which he tosses in the process of the game. He, Bob (Jerry Rector) and Crow ([[Thom Mathews]]) are only characters, that are seen dual-wielding Berettas along with other guns. Cam ([[Deborah Van Valkenbourgh]]) receives her [[Beretta 92FS]] gun from Marcus ([[Michael Halsey]]), who, most likely takes it from one of the deceased criminals.

Hoss ([[Yuji Okumoto]]) gives his own Desert Eagle to the guard, after jokingly aiming it at him, while Crow ([[Thom Mathews]]) saying "Bang". Crow himself uses Desert Eagle (akimbo style with [[Beretta 92F]]) in the climatic shootout in the toilet. Moon ([[Ice-T]]) opens a special case with four chrome Desert Eagles for "Grand Finale". These pistols are seen in the hands of Lou, Cam, Marcus and Moon himself.

Pistols

Beretta 92FS

The Beretta 92FS is one of the most frequently used guns in the film. Lou (Christopher Lambert) is seen using four different Beretta pistols, including one taken from African-American thug named Blondie (Jahi J.J. Zuri); three of which he tosses in the process of the game. Lou, Bob (Jerry Rector) and Crow (Thom Mathews) are also seen dual-wielding Berettas along with other guns. Cam (Deborah Van Valkenbourgh) receives her Beretta 92FS gun from Marcus (Michael Halsey). Barbie (Tina Cote) also uses a Beretta 92FS (taken from Lenny, the thug she killed with a baseball bat). There's also various thugs, including Ricky (James Wellington), using the Beretta 92F (most likely even the same props) during the film.

Desert Eagle Mark I

A Desert Eagle Mark I is the personal sidearm of Marcus (Michael Halsey). It's the only gun not taken by Moon guards, possibly because of Marcus's status in syndicate, or because his nonsense phrase about eggs and bacon that he says to the guard is a special password to save own gun, while in the prison.

A chrome Desert Eagle Mark VII is the pistol used by D (Kimberly Warren) in the film. D's Desert Eagle was also used by Lou in one scene.

Crow himself uses a Desert Eagle (dual-wielding it with the Beretta 92FS) in the climatic shootout in the restroom. At one point in the film, Moon (Ice-T) opens up a special case with four chrome Desert Eagles for the "Grand Finale".
