M16A1

The United States soldiers seen during Emmett Fitz-Hume (Chevy Chase) and Austin Millbarge's (Dan Aykroyd) training are carrying M16A1's. Also, M16's are one of the many rifles used by the Mujahideen.

"Kalashnikov"

AK-47's can be seen in the hands of the Soviet soldiers escorting the SS-50 rocket at the beginning of the film. Oddly enough, they are seen using Chinese Type-56's at the end of the film. Also, some of the Mujahideen are carrying AK-47's/Type-56's. (As the film is based around 1985, the Soviets should be using AK-74's, but since at this point in time the AK-74 was not found largely outside of the Soviet Union, the older guns are the only other choice.)

Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)

Several of the Mujahideen can be seen using Lee-Enfield's, and later the rifle is seen in the hands of the Turkish soldiers at the guard post.

Some of the Mujahideen, (such as the unlucky one who manages to get on the Ambulance and is then hit by the tree branch), are using Sterling submachine guns.

MAC-10

The "GLG-20's" Jerry Hadley (Charles McKeown) and Karen Boyer (Donna Dixon) use MAC-10's when Soviet troops discover the spies while infiltrating the Soviet Union. Austin later uses one in his corageous attempt to rescue Emmett from the Soviet border guards.

Tokarev TT-33

The Soviet KGB Agents are seen using Tokarev TT-33 pistols after Emmett and Austin discover their contacts' true loyalties while in Pakistan. The agents are also seen using the pistols later at the highway patrol office. They should, however, be using Makarovs.
