M-14 Sniper rifle

Used by Demetrius "Silk" Owens (Charles Ingram) as his primary weapon. US Navy uses standard M14 rifles. The M21 is used by the US Army. The USMC uses the M14 DMR, Designated Marksman Rifle. All are updated versions of the M14

Remington 870 shotgun

Lake also uses a Remington 870 shotgun with an extended tube and a sidesaddle for extra shells. The shotgun is sometimes preferred for close quarters and in the jungle, often used by the pointman in the team. After "Lake" takes an unfatal shot to the right shoulder, "Flea" takes his Remington 870, because Lake can only use one arm. Flea then fires all seven shots and most likey drops the shotgun, due to its long reload time. Flea uses his M4 until he is shot.

Sig Sauer P228 pistol

SIG P228 9mm

Danny "Doc" Kelley wields this pistol during the ethnic cleansing scene and during the final battle when he runs out of ammo for his M4 and resorts to this pistol until he can reload. It is odd that the rest of the team wields H&K MK 23's while "Doc" uses a P228.

"Doc" Kelley is actually a Navy Corpsman and not a SEAL therefor he carries the Navy M11 (Sig P228).Silk carries a P226, using it moments before being killed.
