The SIG-Sauer P228 pistol is used by most Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) agents in the film, notably by Special Agent Bob Blanchard (Dan Lauria).
Full-size SIG-Sauer P226 pistols are also used some BATF agents, likely as substitutes for the BATF standard issue P226.A Branch Davidian also is seen firing a P226 at BATF agents as they break into the weapons arsenal in the Mount Carmel compound.
BATF agents are largely armed with Heckler & Koch HK94A2 submachine guns modified to resemble MP5A2s during the raid on the Branch Davidian compound. The weapons have had their 16-inch barrels chopped and are equipped with Surefire forends and double clamped magazines.
M16 (SP1) rifles with M16A1 birdcage flash hiders are seized by BATF agents after they arrest a New Orleans weapons dealer. Branch Davidian Jason (Neal McDonough) is also armed with a M16 (SP1) with a 30 round magazine during the BATF raid on Mount Carmel.

The flash hider is a smaller diameter copy of the XM-177 and has no sound suppression qualities and is permanently welded onto the barrel to make it legal length for over the counter gun store sales.
Norinco Type 56
A number of Branch Davidians use Norinco Type 56 rifles, both during shooting practice and during the raid.
Ruger Mini-14 rifles are used by many Branch Davidians during the ATF raid, and a gunman uses a Mini-14 to fatally wound Special Agents Conway LeBleu (Glenn Morshower) and Robert Williams (Lewis Smith).
