The Departed (2006)

The following guns were used in the movie The Departed

SIG-Sauer P226

The SIG-Sauer P226 is used by all of the Massachusetts State Police officers in the movie, including Matt Damon as Sergeant Collin Sullivan, Anthony Anderson as Detective Brown, and numerous other characters.

In real life, the P226 has been standard-issue for the Massachusetts State Police since 1987. However, during the scene where Collin is sitting in a class on ballistics while at the academy, the instructor mentions that the department's service pistols are chambered for 9mm hollow-point rounds. This is a slight inaccuracy; the Staties have been using the .40 S&W version of the P226 since the mid-1990s (and more recently switched to the double-action-only DAK model, whereas the guns in the movie are SA/DA models).

Detective Brown (Anthony Anderson) with his own P226.

Astra A-100

Although the Sig-Sauer P226 is standard-issue for the Massachusetts State Police (both in the movie and in real life), a close-up of Collin Sullivan (Matt Damon) firing his weapon at the academy uses an Astra A-100. This pistol looks similar to the P228, but it is a very different weapon. When Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio) is shown training on firearms at the academy, he also seems to be using this same pistol (probably the same prop gun).

Colt Python

Mr. French (Ray Winstone) carries a snub-nose version of the Colt Python .357 Magnum throughout the film. It is seen most notably during the warehouse scene, when he cocks the weapon while it's concealed behind his back.

Walther PPK

Billy Costigan's (Leonardo DiCaprio's) pistol throughout the movie is a stainless Walther PPK. This weapon is later used by trooper Barrigan (James Badge Dale) to kill Detective Brown, and then by Collin to kill Barrigan.

Beretta 84F Cheetah
