WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Handguns

Glock 26

FBI Special Agent Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) carries a Glock 26 throughout the film. She pulls it from an ankle holster and holds it on a mobster during the sting at the beginning of the film. Later, while undercover at the Miss United States pageant, she pulls it from her hip holster and points it at Victor Melling (Michael Caine). Humorously, Sandra Bullock also carried a Glock 26 in The Heat, where she again played an FBI agent. The Glock 26 is also not used by the FBI, who would have been using .40-caliber full sized Glocks at the time when both films were made.
