The following weapons were used in the second season of the television series Ultimate Force:
Ultimate Force - Season 2
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P226
The SIG-Sauer P226 is the preferred sidearm of Red Troop and is used throughout the series. It is frequently seen holstered whenever the team are wearing their counter terrorist gear, but is normally only used for undercover work.
Jamie (
jamie Draven) is armed with a P226 when he first boards the boat in "Communication" (Episode 2.1). This is in fact a continuity error, as after this point the gun changes to a
P225.
Jamie uses a P226 fitted with a suppressor to snatch a cult member in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5).
Louis (
Christopher Fox) aims his P226 from the rear foot-well of a jeep whilst abducting Mick Mo in "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6).
SIG-Sauer P225
Jamie (Jamie Draven) can be seen using SIG-Sauer P225 as his sidearm in several episodes, even though this pistol is a dated design with a smaller magazine capacity than the P226s and P228s which Red Troop usually uses on the show. The use of this pistol in "Communication" (Episode 2.1) is rife with continuity errors. Firstly, Jamie can be seen holding the pistol below decks on the boat when earlier he was using a larger P226 whilst climbing aboard. Secondly, Henno (Ross Kemp) draws a P225 from his holster and clears it at the end of the episode, despite the fact that he was previously using the similar, but more modern, P228.
Jamie uses a P225 whilst moving around the lower deck of the ship.
Henno unloads a P225 at the end of the episode. This can be differentiated from the P228 he was using early by the horned trigger guard.
Jamie again uses a P225 in "Wannabes" (Episode 2.3) whilst threatening Suzi Brown (
Flora Montgomery)
A closer shot of the back of Jamie's pistol, showing that it has the single stack frame of the P225.
SIG-Sauer P228
In some episodes, the smaller SIG-Sauer P228 are used by Red Troop.
Henno (
Ross Kemp) can be seen with a P228 whilst hiding below decks in "Communication" (Episode 2.1). In a continuity error, this pistol later changes to a
P225.
Henno and Jamie (
Jamie Draven) can both be seen using P228s at the shooting range in "Mad Dogs" (Episode 2.2). Ricky (
Danny Sapani) is also using a pistol at the range, however he is armed with a
P226, as referenced by its longer barrel and horned trigger guard.
Heckler & Koch USP
Heckler & Koch USP pistols are seen in some episodes, usually in the hands of the antagonists.
Heckler & Koch USP 9x19mm
USPs feature prominently in "Communication" (Episode 2.1) where they are used by the French special forces. In this picture, the leader of the French soldiers, LeMaison (
François Guétary), re-holsters his USP after shooting the terrorist leader.
LeMaison aiming his USP at the innocent captain as he forces him to continue to England.
Louis (
Christopher Fox) checks his USP is loaded as they approach a checkpoint. This is a continuity error, as he was previously seen with a
SIG-Sauer P226, although it is possible this is the weapon he confiscated from Mick Mo, although why he would be using it instead of his own pistol is unclear.
Smith & Wesson Model 60
Several of the terrorists on the boat in "Communication" (Episode 2.1) can be seen using Smith & Wesson Model 60 snub nose revolvers.
Smith & Wesson Model 60 - .38 Special
The leader of the terrorists firing his revolver at one of the ship's crew.
Another terrorists draws a gun in the mess hall, before being shot by the French special forces.
Walther P99
A Walther P99 can briefly be seen in "The List" (Episode 2.4) as the pistol being used by the sleeper assassin Levi (Simon Gregor).
The P99 can be seen laying on the seat, along with his target instructions. From the proprietary accessory rail visible in this shot, along with the fact that this episode was shot in 2003, this pistol is an original pre-2004 model as opposed to the "Quick Action".
Smith & Wesson Model 686
The cult leader Omega (Conor Mullen) in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 686 with a 4" barrel.
Smith & Wesson Model 686 4" Barrel - .357 Magnum.
Omega aiming his 686 at a police car as the start of the episode.
Beretta 92
In "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6) one of the rebels, uses what appears to be an original Beretta 92 during a mock execution and a ransom video. Oddly this particular pistol is fitted with a slide which is thinner at the front than the back and different grip plates, features which do not appear on the majority of Beretta 92s.
Beretta 92, the first Beretta model produced, noted by rounded trigger guard, butt located magazine release, and frame mounted safety (pre-decocking safety) - 9x19mm
The lack of safety on the right side of the frame indicates that this is an original Beretta 92. Also visible in this shot is the "step" on the side of the slide where it narrows just past the chamber.
During the ransom video it is just possible to see frame mounted safety, as well as the butt mounted magazine release confirming this is a Beretta 92, as opposed to a very early
Taurus PT92.
CZ 75B
One of the rebels in "Dead is Forever" uses a CZ 75B during a mock execution. The weapon misfires, prompting the user to say "Damn these cheep Czechoslovakian weapons."
The rebel aims at blindfolded Dempsey (
Miles Anderson) with his CZ 75B.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The standard-issue weapons for the SAS unit Red Troop in the TV show are Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns, which are always seen with Surefire fore ends and tactical flashlights as well as the SEF-style lower receiver. These weapons are typically used in Red Troop's domestic hostage rescue missions.
The other SAS unit, Blue Troop, also use identical weapons, as do many Metropolitan Police SO19 (now CO19) officers throughout the show.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3 - 9x19mm
Jamie (
Jamie Draven) sneaking across the upper deck of the ship with his MP5A3 in "Communication" (Episode 2.1).
The Mossad agent Ben Yager (
Stephen Noonan ) uses an MP5A3 fitted with a telescopic sight and suppressor in "The List" (Episode 2.4).
Capt. Ian Macalwain (
Richard Armitage) with his MP5A3 during the assault on the cult compound in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5).
Unlike the majority of the assault team in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5) Caroline (
Alex Reid) carries a regular MP5A3, as her weapon is purely for self defence.
Heckler & Koch MP5KA1
Heckler & Koch MP5KA1 submachine guns are used by a number of the French special forces soldiers in "Communication" (Episode 2.1). The MP5KA1 is a version of the original MP5K designed for concealed carry (it lacks the H&K dioptre sights in order to avoid getting snagged on clothing when being drawn quickly from beneath a jacket).
Heckler & Koch MP5KA1 - 9x19mm
A French soldier walks onto deck with a MP5KA1, which starts the fire-fight.
Another French soldier with an MP5KA1. Note the lack of the hooded front sight indicating this is the A1 variant.
Henno (
Ross Kemp) surveys the damage after the fire-fight. An MP5KA1 can be seen at his feet in the hands of a dead soldier.
IMI Uzi
Several of the French special forces soldiers in "Communications" (Episode 2.1) are armed with IMI Uzis.
One of the French soldiers enters the bunk room with his Uzi.
A view of the Uzi after the soldier puts it on the table. Note the two magazine couple together, which would make the gun somewhat uncomfortable to hold.
The soldier in the rear is armed with an Uzi.
The terrorist targets on the shooting range at Hereford are armed with Uzis in "Mad Dogs" (Episode 2.2).
Mini Uzi
The Mini Uzi machine pistol appears in several episodes being used by the bad guys..
One of the French soldiers in "Communication" (Episode 2.1) gets shot in the head whilst aiming his Mini Uzi. Note the device attached to the butt stock of the weapon which creates the blood splatter from the bullet hit, which is visible as he falls to the side.
Another French soldier carries a Mini Uzi with a laser sight clamped under the barrel.
A motorcycle gunman fires a Mini Uzi in "The List" (Episode 2.4).
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
Red Troop also makes use of the suppressed Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5) when Red Troop invades the stronghold of a Christian cult terrorist group to capture their leader.
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 9mm
A number of SAS soldiers move into position around the building with their MP5SD3s.

PPSh-41
A PPSh-41 can be seen briefly in the hands of one of the Serbian soldiers in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice".
Soviet PPSh-41 Submachine Gun - 7.62x25mm Tokarev

Assault Rifles
Norinco Type 56-1
Norinco Type 56-1s are a common terrorist weapon on the show.
Norinco Type 56-1 7.62x39mm
Omega (
Conor Mullen) firing a Type 56 in "What in the Name of God" (Episode 2.5).
Dempsey (
Miles Anderson) uses a Type 56 in "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6), which he takes from a terrorist he kills.
Heckler & Koch HK33A3
Several of the French special forces soldiers in "Communication" (Episode 2.1) carry Heckler & Koch HK33s.
Heckler & Koch HK33A3 5.56x45mm
One of the French soldiers aiming his HK33 through the smoke created from a stun grenade.
Another of the French soldiers fires down at Red Troop from the bridge of the ship.
Colt CAR-15
CAR-15s are a common weapon used by Red troop, and can be seen used by multiple characters in "Something to Do with Justice" (Episode 1.6). These CAR-15s are most likely either mock-ups or commercial copies, as the flash hiders are too long for E1 rifles, but lack the grenade ring found on later E2 rifles.
Commercial CAR-15 semiautomatic Rifle - 5.56x45mm.
Caroline (
Alex Reid) carries a CAR-15 while opperating as Red Troop's radio opperator in "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6). During night scenes, it is fitted with some variety of image intensifier on the carry handle.
Colt AR-15 Sporter-1
Colt AR-15 Sporter-1s are seen frequently on the show in the hands of Red troop as a stand in for M16s. They can be recognised as Sporter-1s by their screw type pivot rather than push pin pivot, which is visible in some shots. The rifle is particular prevalent in "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6) where it is the source of continuity errors where Henno (Ross Kemp) and Jamie (Jamie Draven) switch between using SP1s and M16A2s throughout the episode.
Colt AR-15 Sporter-1 (SP1) - 5.56x45mm
Henno (
Ross Kemp) looking through the British CWS night sight of his SP1, also fitted with a
Cobray CM203. Although it looks like he has the lens cap in place so wouldn't be able to see anything, the lens cap actually has a whole in the centre which restricts the light the sight lets in to allow it to function in daylight.
Jamie's SP1 has quadrant sights fitted to the carry handle. Also visible in the bottom right of this shot is the large screw headed pivot pin which is indicative of the Colt Sporter-1 rifles.
Henno attempts to clear a jam by cycling the charging handle, but you can see that the weapon jams again. This weapon is apparently in need of some serious cleaning.
M16A1 (with M16A2 hand guards)
Red troop make use of M16A1s fitted with A2 type handguards on several occasions for oversees missions where more range is required.
M16A1 with A2 style handguards - 5.56x45mm
Pete (
Tony Curran) carries an M16A1 with A2 handguards, as noted by its forward assist but no brass deflector, in "Dead is Forever" (Episode 2.6).
Pete takes cover with his M16 as he destroys a bunker with a grenade.

Colt M16A1
Sniper Rifles
Accuracy International L96A1
Whenever Red Troop requires sniper support, the snipers are typically armed with Accuracy International L96A1 rifles in 7.62x51mm NATO.
Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Magnum 7.62x51mm NATO
Corporal Ricky Mann (
Danny Sapani) aims an L96A1 in Episode 2.1, "Communication".
Machine Guns
FN Minimi
Red Troop is frequently seen using the FN Minimi for support during missions overseas.

Captain Caroline Walsh (
Alex Reid) firing an FN Minimi in Episode 2.6, "Dead Is Forever".
L7 GPMG
RPD
Seen in season 4 episode 1, "Changing of the Guard"
Browning M1919
Seen in "Weapon of Choice", season 3 episode 4. In the same episode at the beginning, it was mounted on a "Russian tank".
Shotguns
Remington 870 Police Folder
Used by the SAS to breach doors.
Heavy Weapons
Cobray CM203
Red Troop's M16s and CAR-15s are often fitted with what appear to be M203 grenade launchers. However, a close inspection of the receivers reveals that they are actually the look-a-like Cobray CM203 37mm launchers which are often used to substitute for the M203 in many films and TV shows.
