'''''Vantage Point''''' is a 2008 action thriller that follows the events surrounding an assassination attempt on the US President Henry Ashton ([[William Hurt]]), while making a speech in Salamanca, Spain promoting a treaty to fight international terrorism. This is seen in the film from the varying viewpoints of those who witnessed the attempt, including Global News Network producer Rex Brooks ([[Sigourney Weaver]]), United States Secret Service Agents Thomas Barnes ([[Dennis Quaid]]) and Kent Taylor ([[Matthew Fox]]), American tourist Howard Lewis ([[Forest Whitaker]]), Spanish police officer Enrique ([[Eduardo Noriega]]), deadly terrorists Suarez ([[Saïd Taghmaoui]]) and Veronica ([[Ayelet Zurer]]), and blackmailed former special forces member Javier ([[Edgar Ramirez]]). Due to principal filming being done in Mexico City, a number of the firearms in the film (notably the [[Beretta 92FS]] pistols) are blank-firing only replicas instead of blank-converted registered firearms, likely due to lack of availability.

{{spoiler|MAJOR SPOILERS!!}}
The majority of the Secret Service Agents in the film including Thomas Barnes ([[Dennis Quaid]])  carry the [[SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P229|SIG-Sauer P229]] as their standard sidearms. Though the Secret Service chambers their SIG Sauer P229s for the .357 SIG round, the P229s used in the movie are chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum. There is also a continuity error when Dennis Quaid is seen firing over twenty rounds before reloading.  The gun only holds 13 rounds; 12 in the magazine, and 1 in the chamber.

The issued sidearm of USSS agent Thomas Barnes ([[Dennis Quaid]]) is an older model [[SIG-Sauer P229]] pistol chambered in 9x19mm, instead of the correct .357 SIG ammunition chambered for the real life USSS SIG pistols.

== Beretta 92FS ==
[[Image:SIGP229.jpg|thumb|none|300px|SIG-Sauer P229 - 9x19mm]]
The majority of the terrorists and covert operatives in the film carry the [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92 FS|Beretta 92FS]]. Those who use it include Javier ([[Edgar Ramirez]]) during the police car scene; the Spanish policeman; female terrorist Veronica ([[Ayelet Zurer]]) and the terrorist head Suarez ([[Saïd Taghmaoui]]). Continuity errors with these pistols occur in several scenes when the gun is "fired" and then immediately shown with the hammer forward. While the USSS agents usually carry SIG P229's, Agent Kent Taylor ([[Matthew Fox]]) is seen only using the Beretta.

== Glock 17 ==
At one point in the film we see a USSS agent using the newer SIG-Sauer P229R (with a rail on the frame nose) while pursuing Enrique ([[Eduardo Noriega]]).
A [[Glock 17]] is used by the former special forces soldier Javier ([[Edgar Ramirez]]) who kidnaps the real President. The one shown in the film features a stainless steel slide and a suppressor. Might be a G17-Pro.

In another continuity error, the SIG-Sauer P229R changes into a [[SIG-Sauer P226]]R.
[[Image:P226R.jpg|thumb|none|400px|SIG-Sauer P226R, this is considered a standard size "duty carry" weapon, while the [[SIG-Sauer P228|P228]] and [[SIG-Sauer P229|P229]] are considered "compact" handguns - 9x19mm]]

==Beretta 92FS==
[[Image:Glock 17 screen 02.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Here he takes out several guards as well as the chief of staff with his Glock 17]]
The most commonly used gun in the film is the [[Beretta 92FS]] pistol, seen carried by Spanish police officer Enrique ([[Eduardo Noriega]]), as well as all of the terrorists in the film. USSS Agent Kent Taylor ([[Matthew Fox]]) is curiously seen using a Beretta as his sidearm, instead of the correct [[SIG-Sauer P229]] pistol typically issued to Secret Service. Many of the Berettas appear to be Bruni Model 92 8mm stage firing blank replicas. Many of them have the proper Beretta logo grips though, so they could have been installed on the props, or actual Berettas may have been used depending on location of filming.

Vantage Point (2008)


Vantage Point is a 2008 action thriller that follows the events surrounding an assassination attempt on the US President Henry Ashton (William Hurt), while making a speech in Salamanca, Spain promoting a treaty to fight international terrorism. This is seen in the film from the varying viewpoints of those who witnessed the attempt, including Global News Network producer Rex Brooks (Sigourney Weaver), United States Secret Service Agents Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid) and Kent Taylor (Matthew Fox), American tourist Howard Lewis (Forest Whitaker), Spanish police officer Enrique (Eduardo Noriega), deadly terrorists Suarez (Saïd Taghmaoui) and Veronica (Ayelet Zurer), and blackmailed former special forces member Javier (Edgar Ramirez). Due to principal filming being done in Mexico City, a number of the firearms in the film (notably the Beretta 92FS pistols) are blank-firing only replicas instead of blank-converted registered firearms, likely due to lack of availability.


The following weapons were used in the film Vantage Point:

Handguns

SIG-Sauer P229

The issued sidearm of USSS agent Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid) is an older model SIG-Sauer P229 pistol chambered in 9x19mm, instead of the correct .357 SIG ammunition chambered for the real life USSS SIG pistols.

Beretta 92FS

The most commonly used gun in the film is the Beretta 92FS pistol, seen carried by Spanish police officer Enrique (Eduardo Noriega), as well as all of the terrorists in the film. USSS Agent Kent Taylor (Matthew Fox) is curiously seen using a Beretta as his sidearm, instead of the correct SIG-Sauer P229 pistol typically issued to Secret Service. Many of the Berettas appear to be Bruni Model 92 8mm stage firing blank replicas.
