The film features Jigsaw being apprehended by the police, but trapping detective Eric Matthews in one of his own games while showing another game of eight people — including the his son Daniel — in progress on TV monitors at another location. The film also explores some of John Kramer's backstory, providing a partial explanation of his reason for becoming Jigsaw. A sequel, titled Saw III, was released in 2006.

Ruger GP-100

A Ruger GP100 is used in a "Magnum Eyehole" trap in the first half of the film. The trap consistes of a metal contraption with mounted revolver, which was mounted to a door. Its barrel aimes directly at the door's peephole, and the trigger connected to a chain and a pulley, which in turn were connected to the lock of the door. When Xavier Chavez (Franky G) turns the key in the lock of a door and Gus (Tony Nappo) gets shot in the head as he looks through the peephole. Later, Xavier, Jonas (Glenn Plummer) and Amanda Young (Shawnee Smith) examine the device of the trap and revolver. In the final act, Amanda and Daniel Matthews (Erik Knudsen), hiding from Xavier, came back to the safe room where they saw the revolver again.

Smith & Wesson 5946

Eric Matthews (Donnie Wahlberg) carries a Smith & Wesson 5946 as his service weapon throughout the film. For the first time a pistol is seen in holster at his home. After arriving from the place where Michael Marks' game takes place to the police station, Eric puts the holster with the gun on the table. He pulls a pistol from his holster when the first SWAT team storm Wilson Steel Plant, and then takes aim, removing cloth from the monitors. However, when it seems that Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) has already been arrested, it turns out that the detective have to play another game. So he puts out the gun and speaks to the killer. Later, when Eric's nerves begin to fail, he takes the gun and threatens Jigsaw, beating him. Arriving at the Nerve Gas House, Matthews holds a pistol at the ready, but loses it after being attacked by a Pig Mask Man.
