In Shanghai, Ethan takes a [[Beretta 92 pistol series|Beretta 92FS]] from one of Davian's men and then is seen being taken up by Davian himself. Ethan is later seen giving the Beretta to his wife Julia ([[Michelle Monaghan]]), showing her how to properly load and handle the gun. IMF Agent Musgrave ([[Billy Crudup]]) also holds and fires a Beretta.

The [[Beretta 92G Elite 1A]] is the sidearm of Ethan Hunt during the mission to rescue Agent Ferris ([[Keri Russell]]).

==Heckler & Koch G36K==
+
==Glock 17==
  
During the bridge ambush, Ethan Hunt ([[Tom Cruise]]) grabs a [[Heckler & Koch G36|Heckler & Koch G36K]] assault rifle from the trunk of his Lincoln Navigator and uses it against the mercenaries sent to free Owen Davian ([[Philip Seymour Hoffman]]).  
+
The [[Glock 17]] is used by several characters in the film. Ethan Hunt ([[Tom Cruise]]) notably uses the Glock during the chase in Shanghai, where he hangs low to the ground from a car's backseat to shoot out a pursuing car's tires, causing a wreck and terminating the chase. Zhen ([[Maggie Q]]) also uses one during the bridge ambush.

[[Image:MI3 21010.jpg|600px|thumb|none|Ethan assembles the G36. You notice that there are 2 magazines, but Ethan didn't clip them together or even bother to take it with him, so that when he does run out, he could reload.]]
+
Ethan also uses a [[Glock 26]] pistol modified to fire tranquilizer darts. He first uses it to subdue Davian in the Vatican bathroom and then is seen using it during his infiltration of the military-controlled skyscraper to subdue the roof guards. He quickly loses the gun in order to prevent himself from falling to his death. The actual prop is made of rubber and molded from a modified Glock pistol.

Several [[Barrett M82|Barrett M82A1]] sniper rifles are planted by Ethan in front of the warehouse before the rescue mission. Each rifle is mounted on a remote turret and is fed by two ammo drums. The rate of fire in the movie is most likely a rapid semi-automatic rather than a slow automatic rate of fire. The Barrett rifles are fired remotely by Luther ([[Ving Rhames]]).

SPOILERS.jpg WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Handguns

Beretta 92FS

In Shanghai, Ethan takes a Beretta 92FS from one of Davian's men and then is seen being taken up by Davian himself. Ethan is later seen giving the Beretta to his wife Julia (Michelle Monaghan), showing her how to properly load and handle the gun. IMF Agent Musgrave (Billy Crudup) also holds and fires a Beretta.

Beretta 92G Elite 1A

The Beretta 92G Elite 1A is the sidearm of Ethan Hunt during the mission to rescue Agent Ferris (Keri Russell). He passes it to Ferris during their escape and it is fitted with a tactical flashlight. Ethan also appears to carry one when he and the IMF convoy are ambushed on the Bay Bridge by operatives of Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman).

Glock 17

The Glock 17 is used by several characters in the film. Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) notably uses the Glock during the chase in Shanghai, where he hangs low to the ground from a car's backseat to shoot out a pursuing car's tires, causing a wreck and terminating the chase. Zhen (Maggie Q) also uses one during the bridge ambush.

Glock 26 (Modified)

Ethan also uses a Glock 26 pistol modified to fire tranquilizer darts. He first uses it to subdue Davian in the Vatican bathroom and then is seen using it during his infiltration of the military-controlled skyscraper to subdue the roof guards. He quickly loses the gun in order to prevent himself from falling to his death. The actual prop is made of rubber and molded from a modified Glock pistol.

Assault Rifles

AKMSU

The guards at the abandoned German factory carry the AKMSU. The mercenaries employed to free Davian also carry the AKMSU during the bridge assault.

AKMSU Krinkov - 7.62x39mm. This is a blank adapted full auto transferable AKM (7.62x39mm) pistol that was converted into a Krinkov via parts kit. Guns just like this one have been used in Tropic Thunder, Three Kings, and numerous other movies and TV shows.

Barrett M82A1

Several Barrett M82A1 sniper rifles are planted by Ethan in front of the warehouse before the rescue mission. Each rifle is mounted on a remote turret and is fed by two ammo drums. The rate of fire in the movie is most likely a rapid semi-automatic rather than a slow automatic rate of fire. The Barrett rifles are fired remotely by Luther (Ving Rhames).
