Treasury agent Elliot Ness (Kevin Costner) uses a M1911A1 throughout the film. Treasury accountant Oscar Wallace (Charles Martin Smith) keeps one in a shoulder holster. Frank Nitti (Billy Drago) carries a nickel-plated M1911A1 in court, which Ness uses as an excuse to kick him out. Several other of Capone's (Robert De Niro) mobsters carry them.
File:Untouch-1911d.jpg

File:Untouch-sw10e.jpg
Stone prepares to kill the gangster.
Star Model B
A gangster who holds the bookkeeper (Jack Kehoe) from Ness and Stone in the train station holds a Star Model B to the bookkeeper's head.
Thompson M1928

M1917 Enfield .30-06. The Pattern 1914 was chambered originally in a high velocity .276 caliber and then changed to .303 British when the experimental caliber proved to be troublesome. Remington manufactured the rifle for the British in WW1. After the U.S. joined the Allies it was easy to convert the rifle to 30-06.
