'''''S.W.A.T.''''' is the 2003 feature film adaptation of the [[S.W.A.T. (1975)|1975 television series of the same name]]. Directed by [[Clark Johnson]], the film stars [[Samuel L. Jackson]] as Sgt. Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson, an "old-school" LAPD SWAT officer who leads a newly-recruited team as they find themselves assigned to escort a notorious international crime lord who has promised anyone $100 million to break him out of police custody. Two unrelated DTV sequels would follow: 2011's ''[[S.W.A.T.: Firefight]]'' and 2017's ''[[S.W.A.T.: Under Siege]]''. ''S.W.A.T.'' would again be adapted as a [[S.W.A.T. (2017 TV Series)|weekly television series]] (using elements and characters from the film as well) that stars [[Shemar Moore]] and premiered on CBS in the fall of 2017.
  
One of the first guns seen in the film, the [[AK-47]] appears in the hands of bank robbers in the opening scenes of the film which is based off the infamous North Hollywood Bank shootout where a pair of AK-toting bank robbers dressed in heavy body armor wreaked havoc on the undergunned Los Angeles Police Department. Several AK's also appear being used by gang members who ambush a police convoy in an attempt to liberate the main villain of the film. Two of the AK's used by the robbers have high-capacity drum magazines instead of the standard 30-round magazine.

__TOC__<br clear=all>
  
The film features [[Beretta M92F|Beretta M92FS]] pistols as the standard-issue sidearms of L.A.P.D. patrolmen, which in the opening scenes are totally outclassed by the large caliber assault weapons and heavy body armor wielded by the bank robbers, prompting the mobilization of the S.W.A.T. team. One of the main villain's cronies is also seen using one fitted with a silencer when attempting to liberate him form a Sheriff's Department inmate transport bus.

==Kimber Custom TLE II==
 +
The primary sidearm of the Los Angeles Police Department's Special Weapons And Tactics (SWAT) officers in the film is a variant of the [[M1911A1]] pistol known as the [[Kimber Custom TLE II]] made by Kimber Manufacturing, Inc. The pistols are fitted with a Surefire 310R weaponlight (distinguishable from the 610R by the minimal protrusion past the muzzle). During a training mission simulating a hijacked airliner, the team uses several of these weapons modified to fire Simunitions, identifiable by the orange markings on the grip and weaponlight. Alex Montel ([[Olivier Martinez]]) and Brian Gamble's ([[Jeremy Renner]]) men are also seen using standard TLE IIs without weaponlights.

During the bank robbery scene, several L.A.P.D. patrolmen can be seen trying in vain to take down the robbers with [[Remington 870]] shotguns which, like their Beretta pistols, are no match for the superior firepower and heavy body armor of the robbers.

+
==Beretta 92FS==  
 +
[[Beretta 92FS]] pistols are seen as the standard-issue sidearms of LAPD patrol officers, notably seen in the opening of the film in which the officers totally outclassed by the assault rifles and heavy body armor wielded by the bank robbers (the sequence was inspired by the real-life 1997 North Hollywood Bank of America Shootout, represented in the TV film ''[[44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout]]'', released in 2003, the same year as ''S.W.A.T.''), prompting the mobilization of the SWAT team. GQ ([[Domenick Lombardozzi]]), one of Montel's cronies, is also seen using one fitted with a suppressor when attempting to liberate him from a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department inmate transport bus. Several officers playing the role of terrorists during a training mission are also armed with Berettas that have been modified to fire paintballs and are identified by the orange markings on the bottom of the magazines.

One of the primary weapons of the L.A. Police S.W.A.T. team in the film, the SWAT team as well as Brian Gamble ([[Jeremy Renner]]) and his men use [[M16#M4A1|M4A1 carbines]] fitted with ACOG scopes on the carry handles and large tactical flashlights on the foregrips.
+
==SIG-Sauer P220 Sport==
[[Image:M4A1.jpg|thumb|none|400px|[[M16|Colt M4A1]] 5.56mm]]
+
Brian Gamble can be seen carrying a [[SIG-Sauer P220 Sport]] as his weapon of choice, first using it to shoot Officer Michael Boxer ([[Brian Van Holt]]) in the neck when freeing Montel from custody. He also notably uses it in the final fight with his former partner Officer Jim Street ([[Colin Farrell]]). During the fight, Street manages to eject the magazine and get hold of the pistol, Gamble tauntingly holding up the ejected magazine, to which Street replies that there's still a round in the chamber before ejecting it and discarding the pistol, preferring to finish the fight hand-to-hand instead.

 +
==Heckler & Koch MP5A2==
 +
One of the primary weapons in the SWAT team's arsenal is the [[Heckler & Koch MP5A2]], wielded by several of the SWAT officers. These MP5A2s feature the Navy trigger group, and are equipped with Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights.

[[File:SWAT03 119.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Hondo on the left with the MP5A2.]]
  
Another weapon commonly used by the S.W.A.T. team is a variant of the M1911A1 pistol known as the [[M1911 pistol#Kimber SWAT Custom II|Kimber SWAT Custom II]] made by Kimber Manufacturing, Inc. Like all the other weapons used by S.W.A.T., it too has a flashlight; mounted under the barrel ahead of the trigger guard. The most notable scene involving this weapon is when Officer TJ McCabe ([[Josh Charles]]) uses one to commit suicide rather than be arrested by the team he had betrayed.

== Benelli M3 Super 90 ==
+
==TEC-DC9==
 +
An [[Intratec TEC-DC9]] appears in the scene where Alex Montel's cronies try to bust him out of the Sheriff's Office inmate transport bus while posing as LAPD officers, one of the cronies reaching into a police car and pulling one out, opening up on the SWAT officers that had just shown up on the scene.

Yet another of S.W.A.T.'s weapons in the film is the [[Benelli M3 Super 90]] shotgun. In addition to a flashlight-mounting foregrip and pistol-grip stock, it is also tricked out with extra shotshell holders on the right side of the stock and left side of the reciever for a total of 12 extra rounds.
+
==Heckler & Koch MP5K==
[[Image:Benelli-M3-Super-90.jpg|thumb|none|400px|[[Benelli M3 Super 90]] 12-guage]]
+
At the start of the convoy ambush scene, a gang member posing as a hobo starts the ambush by whipping out a [[Heckler & Koch MP5K]] and letting loose, mowing down a motorcycle cop and riddling the frontmost vehicles in the convoy with bullets.

[[Image:SWAT_MiniUzi.JPG|thumb|none|600px|A gang member brandishes a Micro Uzi during the police convoy ambush.]]
  
During the final shootout on the 6th Street bridge, Alex Montel ([[Oliver Martinez]]) can be seen brandishing a silver-plated [[1911|M1911A1]] pistol, shouting in vain for his would-be liberators to ''"Give [him] more ammo"''. One of Gamble's men also threatens the driver of a subway train with one.
+
==SWD M11/9==
 +
Another weapon used by the gang members in the police convoy ambush are several [[MAC-10#Cobray M11/9|SWD M11/9]] machine pistols with folding stocks.

 +
==M4A1==
 +
The [[M4A1 Carbine]] is one of the primary weapons carried by LAPD SWAT in the film. Brian Gamble ([[Jeremy Renner]]) and his men also are seen with them later in the film. The M4s are fitted with Trijicon TA47 ACOG scopes on the carry handles and Surefire M500AB weaponlight handguards.

During the gang ambush of the L.A.P.D. convoy, two of the gang members can be seen picking up and then firing [[M72 LAW]] rocket launchers at the vehicles, destroying them in spectacular explosions.
+
==AKM / AKMS==
[[Image:M72-LAW.gif‎|thumb|none|400px|[[M72 LAW]] 66mm]]
+
Some of the first firearms seen in the film are the [[AKM]] and [[AKMS]]. The assault rifles appear in the hands of bank robbers in the opening scenes of the film, which is based off the infamous 1997 North Hollywood Bank of America Shootout (represented in the TV film ''[[44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout]]''), where a pair of AK-toting bank robbers dressed in heavy body armor wreaked havoc on the outgunned Los Angeles Police Department. Several AKM and AKMS rifles also appear being used by gang members who ambush a police convoy in an attempt to liberate Alex Montel. Two of the AKMs used by the robbers have high-capacity drum magazines (designed for the [[RPK light machine gun]]) instead of the standard 30-round box magazine.

In the scene where the L.A.P.D. convoy is ambushed, several gang members toss [[M18 smoke grenade]]s into the street to cover their operation. Gamble also tosses one behind him in the sewers in an attempt to delay the S.W.A.T. team chasing his group.
+
==Ruger AC556K==
 +
Yet another weapon used during the gang ambush on the police convoy are a couple of [[Ruger AC556K]]s, fully automatic short-barreled versions of the [[Ruger Mini-14]], fitted with folding stocks.
 +
[[Image:RugerAC556folder.jpg|thumb|450px|none|Ruger AC556K with 20-round magazine - 5.56x45mm]]

==IMI Galil MAR==
 +
A [[Galil MAR]] is used by Travis ([[Page Kennedy]]) during the plane crash shootout, fitted with a C-MORE red dot sight.
 +

[[File:SWAT Galil(2).JPG |thumb|none|600px|Travis blind-fires the Galil MAR.]]
  
An [[M18A1 Claymore]] mine appears in the film when Gamble plants one in the sewers while him and his men are being pursued by the S.W.A.T. team. Thankfully, the team discovers the mine before it can cause any harm, later using it to blast open a locked gate at the end of the sewers.
+
==McMillan M88 Sniper Rifle==
 +
At one point in the film, an LAPD helicopter arrives to transport Alex Montel to the federal prison, but is shot out of the sky by one shot to each of the chopper's two engines from a [[McMillan M88]] single shot sniper rifle fitted with a suppressor and extra ammo sleeves being wielded by Brian Gamble ([[Jeremy Renner]]) from a van in a parking garage several hundred yards away.

==Remington 700PSS==
 +
Several SWAT snipers are seen using [[Remington 700PSS]] sniper rifles fitted with Leupold Mark 4 scopes and Harris bipods during the film. First during the bank robbery scene where SWAT sniper Sgt. Yamoto ([[Daniel Ichikawa]]) takes out one of the robbers trying to start the getaway car, and again trying to locate the source of the shots that took out the police chopper. The team is also seen practicing with them during their training, shooting playing cards at long range in a unusual game of poker, these rifles featuring a camouflage paint scheme as shown below.

The [[Benelli M1 Super 90]] shotgun is another main firearm used by LAPD SWAT and is used in the film by several SWAT officers, it is notably seen as the primary weapon of Deke Kay ([[L.L. Cool J]]). In addition to a Surefire dedicated forend weaponlight and pistol-grip stock, it is also tricked out with saddle shell holders on the right side of the stock and left side of the receiver for a total of 12 extra rounds of both buckshot and slugs. During the bank robbery scene at the beginning of the film, SWAT uses one of these shotguns fitted with a special muzzle brake as a breaching weapon to blow the lock off an air conditioning vent cover in order to gain access to the inside of the bank via the roof.

During the training mission simulating a hostage situation onboard an airliner, Deacon 'Deke' Kay uses a [[Mossberg 590]] shotgun modified to fire a rappelling line over the top of the plane. The Mossberg shown is a designated 'less-lethal' variant, indicated by the orange paint job on the stock, pump grip, and trigger guard.

S.W.A.T. is the 2003 feature film adaptation of the 1975 television series of the same name. Directed by Clark Johnson, the film stars Samuel L. Jackson as Sgt. Daniel "Hondo" Harrelson, an "old-school" LAPD SWAT officer who leads a newly-recruited team as they find themselves assigned to escort a notorious international crime lord who has promised anyone $100 million to break him out of police custody. Two unrelated DTV sequels would follow: 2011's S.W.A.T.: Firefight and 2017's S.W.A.T.: Under Siege. S.W.A.T. would again be adapted as a weekly television series (using elements and characters from the film as well) that stars Shemar Moore and premiered on CBS in the fall of 2017.


The following weapons were used in the film S.W.A.T.:


SPOILERS.jpg WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!


Handguns

Kimber Custom TLE II

The primary sidearm of the Los Angeles Police Department's Special Weapons And Tactics (SWAT) officers in the film is a variant of the M1911A1 pistol known as the Kimber Custom TLE II made by Kimber Manufacturing, Inc. The pistols are fitted with a Surefire 310R weaponlight (distinguishable from the 610R by the minimal protrusion past the muzzle). During a training mission simulating a hijacked airliner, the team uses several of these weapons modified to fire Simunitions, identifiable by the orange markings on the grip and weaponlight. Alex Montel (Olivier Martinez) and Brian Gamble's (Jeremy Renner) men are also seen using standard TLE IIs without weaponlights.

Special

Beretta 92FS

Beretta 92FS pistols are seen as the standard-issue sidearms of LAPD patrol officers, notably seen in the opening of the film in which the officers totally outclassed by the assault rifles and heavy body armor wielded by the bank robbers (the sequence was inspired by the real-life 1997 North Hollywood Bank of America Shootout, represented in the TV film 44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout, released in 2003, the same year as S.W.A.T.), prompting the mobilization of the SWAT team. GQ (Domenick Lombardozzi), one of Montel's cronies, is also seen using one fitted with a suppressor when attempting to liberate him from a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department inmate transport bus. Several officers playing the role of terrorists during a training mission are also armed with Berettas that have been modified to fire paintballs and are identified by the orange markings on the bottom of the magazines.

SIG-Sauer P220 Sport

Brian Gamble can be seen carrying a SIG-Sauer P220 Sport as his weapon of choice, first using it to shoot Officer Michael Boxer (Brian Van Holt) in the neck when freeing Montel from custody. He also notably uses it in the final fight with his former partner Officer Jim Street (Colin Farrell). During the fight, Street manages to eject the magazine and get hold of the pistol, Gamble tauntingly holding up the ejected magazine, to which Street replies that there's still a round in the chamber before ejecting it and discarding the pistol, preferring to finish the fight hand-to-hand instead.

Browning BDM

A Browning BDM is used by one of the bank robbers in the film's opening sequence. The robber uses the pistol to threaten a female hostage before being taken out by Officer Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner).

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5A2

One of the primary weapons in the SWAT team's arsenal is the Heckler & Koch MP5A2, wielded by several of the SWAT officers. These MP5A2s feature the Navy trigger group, and are equipped with Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights.

Rifles / Carbines

M4A1

The M4A1 Carbine is one of the primary weapons carried by LAPD SWAT in the film. Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner) and his men also are seen with them later in the film. The M4s are fitted with Trijicon TA47 ACOG scopes on the carry handles and Surefire M500AB weaponlight handguards.

AKM / AKMS

Some of the first firearms seen in the film are the AKM and AKMS. The assault rifles appear in the hands of bank robbers in the opening scenes of the film, which is based off the infamous 1997 North Hollywood Bank of America Shootout (represented in the TV film 44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shootout), where a pair of AK-toting bank robbers dressed in heavy body armor wreaked havoc on the outgunned Los Angeles Police Department. Several AKM and AKMS rifles also appear being used by gang members who ambush a police convoy in an attempt to liberate Alex Montel. Two of the AKMs used by the robbers have high-capacity drum magazines (designed for the RPK light machine gun) instead of the standard 30-round box magazine.

McMillan M88 Sniper Rifle

At one point in the film, an LAPD helicopter arrives to transport Alex Montel to the federal prison, but is shot out of the sky by one shot to each of the chopper's two engines from a McMillan M88 single shot sniper rifle fitted with a suppressor and extra ammo sleeves being wielded by Brian Gamble (Jeremy Renner) from a van in a parking garage several hundred yards away.

Remington 700PSS

Several SWAT snipers are seen using Remington 700PSS sniper rifles fitted with Leupold Mark 4 scopes and Harris bipods during the film. First during the bank robbery scene where SWAT sniper Sgt. Yamoto (Daniel Ichikawa) takes out one of the robbers trying to start the getaway car, and again trying to locate the source of the shots that took out the police chopper. The team is also seen practicing with them during their training, shooting playing cards at long range in a unusual game of poker, these rifles featuring a camouflage paint scheme as shown below.

Shotguns

Benelli M1 Super 90

The Benelli M1 Super 90 shotgun is another main firearm used by LAPD SWAT and is used in the film by several SWAT officers, it is notably seen as the primary weapon of Deke Kay (L.L. Cool J). In addition to a Surefire dedicated forend weaponlight and pistol-grip stock, it is also tricked out with saddle shell holders on the right side of the stock and left side of the receiver for a total of 12 extra rounds of both buckshot and slugs. During the bank robbery scene at the beginning of the film, SWAT uses one of these shotguns fitted with a special muzzle brake as a breaching weapon to blow the lock off an air conditioning vent cover in order to gain access to the inside of the bank via the roof.

Mossberg 590

During the training mission simulating a hostage situation onboard an airliner, Deacon 'Deke' Kay uses a Mossberg 590 shotgun modified to fire a rappelling line over the top of the plane. The Mossberg shown is a designated 'less-lethal' variant, indicated by the orange paint job on the stock, pump grip, and trigger guard.

Remington 870

During the bank robbery scene, several LAPD patrolmen can be seen trying in vain to take down the robbers with Remington 870 shotguns which, like their Beretta pistols, are no match for the automatic rifles and heavy body armor of the robbers. Some of the gang members during the convoy ambush can also be seen with Remington 870's.
