WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P226
Several members of the diplomatic security convoy as well as FBI Special Agent Dan Murray (Tim Grimm) in Colombia can be seen using SIG-Sauer P226 pistols in the scene where the convoy is ambushed. A P226 appears to also be the sidearm carried by Felix Cortez (Joaquim de Almeida).
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS is seen in the holster of a Coast Guard sailor and a drug cartel soldier when the Special Ops team blows up the underground drug factory/lab. The Beretta is also carried by members of the FBI director's security detail during the ambush.
Glock 17
John Clark (Willem Dafoe) can be seen with a Glock 17 with an extended barrel when threatening Jack Ryan in Colombia. Later, Clark is seen taking out a guard with his suppressed pistol.
Heckler & Koch USP
A Heckler & Koch USP is carried by one of Ernesto Escobedo's (Miguel Sandoval) henchmen as he disarms Cortez of his SIG P226 at the Cafe Lindo factory. Clear and Present Danger may be the first movie ever to feature this pistol (since the USP debuted in 1993, the same year that this movie was filmed and was released over a month prior to the 1994 film that also featured the pistol: Terminal Velocity).
M1911A1
While disguised as a motorcycle police officer, Cortez's right hand man Sipo (Jorge Luke) uses an M1911A1 to take out a real officer before the convoy ambush.
Assault Rifles / Carbines
Olympic Arms OA-93
The Olympic Arms OA-93 is the peculiar looking "shortened" M16-like weapon carried by John Clark (Willem Dafoe) in the rescue mission.
Colt AR-15 Sporter-1 Carbine (Mocked up as XM177-type Carbine)
Most of the Reciprocity-team including Captain Ramirez (Benjamin Bratt) can be seen carrying Colt AR-15 SP1 Carbines. The weapons can be identified as Sporter-1 carbines by their lack of forward assist and brass deflector on the upper receiver, and by their slab sided lower receiver with screw type pivot pin. The weapons appear to be fitted with XM177-style flash hiders, most likely a sleeve over the 16" Sporter barrel.
M16A1 (with A2 handguards)
The US soldiers participating in the search-and-evade exercise involving Chavez however are equipped with what appear to be M16A2 Rifles. Upon closer inspection, these rifles appear to be M16A1s fitted with A2 handguards to simulate the M16A2. At least two members of the Reciprocity-team in Colombia also carry M16A1s also with A2-style handguards.
Norinco Type 56
Numerous variants of the Norinco Type 56 can be seen in the hands of Escobedo's men throughout the movie. Fixed stock variants and Type 56-1 under-folding stock variants are seen. They are most visible in the scene in which the reciprocity team attacks and destroys the underground drug lab/factory.
Custom AKMS
What appears to be a customized AKMS with a chopped barrel is held by one of the cartel soldiers in the lab assaulted by the Reciprocity team. The rifle is similar to the one seen in the film Eraser.
Muzzelite MZ14 Bullpup
When the Reciprocity team prepares to take out a cartel drug plane, one of the cartel soldiers appears to be armed with a Ruger AC556 rifle fitted in a Muzzelite MZ14 Bullpup configuration. Another MZ14 Bullpup is very briefly seen wielded by one of the mercenaries attacking the Reciprocity team.

Some of them can be seen fitted with ceremonial M6 bayonets.

Chavez's HK94 is also equipped with a suppressor. Several of Escobedo's men can also be seen with HK94s.
Uzi
Full size Uzi SMGs are seen carried by DSS agents guarding the FBI director.

Also, the bouncer of the nightclub where the pilot is recruited from can be seen holding an Uzi.
Mini Uzi
Several members of the diplomatic convoy in Colombia can be seen using Mini Uzis when they are ambushed. Several of Escobedo's men also wield Mini-Uzis, notably when Ryan meets with Escobedo at the Cafe Lindo factory.
