American Heist is a 2014 crime drama about James (Hayden Christensen), a former criminal, who’s trying to turn his life around as a car mechanic in New Orleans after committing a robbery with his older brother Frankie (Adrien Brody).

Glock 19

In what seems to be a continuity error, Ray’s above described two-toned Glock 17 appears to be a shorter Glock 19 in the scene where the robbery is prepared.

Rifles

Colt M4A1

M4A1 carbines with RIS foregrip are used by both Sugar and Ray. SWAT troopers are probably also seen with this rifle, but the pouring rain on the street does not allow a conclusive identification.

What could be an M4A1 is used by SWAT troopers as they move hostages away from the bank in the pouring rain.

Colt Sporter I

Spoonie (Luis Da Silva Jr.) carries a Colt Sporter I carbine as his side arm during the robbery. It can be easily identified by the slabside receiver and the barrel length.

AKU-94

Several SWAT troopers are using the AKU-94 with M4-style birdcage flash hider and lacking sights, a configuration unlikely to be expected as service weapon anywhere in the USA.

L85A2 (prop)

At the start of the robbery, Sugar jumps across a counter. For a few seconds, his M4A1 carbine becomes a prop resembling the L85A2, most probably for reasons of safety.

Serbu Super Shorty (Maverick Model 88)

Frankie carries a Serbu Super Shorty made from a Maverick Model 88 as his side arm. It can be distinguished from the Mossberg 500 by the lack of safety on top of the receiver.
