The following guns were used in the ITV1 series Ultimate Force:

Ultimate Force (2002-2006)

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 SO-19 (now CO-19) constables throughout the show.

Heckler & Koch MP5SD3

Red Troop also makes use of the suppressed Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 on some missions where maintaining a low profile is preferable in order to avoid alerting terrorists to their presence. These weapons are featured most prominently in Episode 2.5, "What in the Name of God" when Red Troop invades the stronghold of a Christian cult terrorist group to capture their leader.

SIG-Sauer P226

The SIG-Sauer P226 is the preferred sidearm of Red Troop and is used throughout the series. It is seen most prominently in Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" in the hands of Sgt. Henno Garvie (Ross Kemp), who uses his P226 to take down several Kalashnikov-toting IRA terrorists during an ambush.

SIG-Sauer P228

In some episodes, the smaller SIG-Sauer P228 also makes appearances in the hands of Red Troop, most notably in Episode 2.2, "Mad Dogs", when Henno, Jamie, and Ricky are all seen firing them on the range.

SIG-Sauer P225

In Episodes 2.1 and 2.3, Jamie is seen using the SIG-Sauer P225 as his sidearm, 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.

Accuracy International L96A1

Whenever Red Troop requires sniper support, the snipers are typically armed with Accuracy International L96A1 rifles in 7.62x51mm NATO.

M16 series

For overseas missions where hostages and CQB are not important considerations, Red Troop uses several models in the M16 rifle series, ranging from the very earliest M16 to the M16A2, though in nearly all cases, their rifles seem to be fitted with the handguards of M16A2s. They also use M203 grenade launchers (or rather, 37mm Cobray flare launchers impersonating the M203) quite frequently.

CAR-15/M16 carbine series

Red Troop also uses CAR-15/M16 carbine variations on its overseas missions which, like the full-size M16s they are also seen using, often have fake M203 grenade launchers mounted under the barrels.

Throughout Season 3, Henno often uses a CAR-15 with an M203 of unknown variant. It looks like an XM177E2, except that it has a brass deflector on the receiver.

Model 733 CAR-15s (with 11.5-inch barrels and M16A2-style receivers) are used in several episodes, most notably Episode 3.4, "Weapon of Choice".

(Fake) M203

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 37mm Cobray flare launchers which are often used to substitute for the M203 in many films and TV shows.

Accuracy International AW50F

In Episode 1.2, "Just a Target", Jamie (Jamie Draven) goes undercover and joins a militant anti-globalization group which wants him to assassinate an international banker. The terrorists give him a huge .50 BMG Accuracy International AW50F long-range rifle, which none of them are able to fire accurately, and ask him to use it for the assassination. Jamie winds up using the gun to kill one of the terrorists at point-blank range, firing from the hip in a small room (in real life, doing this would cause anyone to go deaf).

Heckler & Koch HK33

Another weapon which appears regularly in the series is the Heckler & Koch HK33, and more specifically, the HK33A3 folding-stock variant. Red Troop typically uses these weapons with claw mounts and scopes as semi-automatic sniper rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie" and 3.4, "Weapon of Choice"). They also appear in the hands of French special forces in Episode 2.1, "Communication".

Glock 17

Glock 17 pistols are used by some terrorists in the series. In Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", they are used by IRA terrorists as well as Royal Ulster Constabulary officers.

AK-47/AKM variations

Many AK-47 and AKM variants appear in the series in the hands of terrorists, rebel groups, and Third World armies. Red Troop also use AKs sometimes when they are out of ammunition for their own weapons, or when other weapons are not available.

Typical of most movies and TV shows made in the West, the Chinese Norinco Type 56 (particularly the folding-stock Type 56-1) is the most frequently-seen Kalashnikov derivative in the series.

Also common in the show are Yugoslav Zastava M70B1 and M70B2 assault rifles (i.e. Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", and Henno also uses an M70B1 in Episode 1.6, "Something to Do with Justice"). These are Yugoslavian AKM variants with folding ladder sights for launching grenades.

Heckler & Koch MP5KA1

Heckler & Koch MP5K machine pistols appear in some episodes, such as Episode 1.5, "The Killing of a One-Eyed Bookie", where Captain Caroline Walsh (Alex Reid) uses one to fire back at IRA terrorists during the ambush. The version seen in the show is always the "KA1" variation, a version designed for concealed carry (it lacks the H&K diopter sights in order to avoid getting snagged on clothing when being drawn quickly from beneath a jacket).
