Detective Tellis, a former undercover narcotics officer, is assigned to an unsolved murder of an undercover officer. Tellis pairs up with the slain officers partner Detective Oak, who is willing to go to extremes to find out who is responsible. Together they make their way through the drug infested underbelly of the city looking for answers.
Detective Oak (Ray Liotta) carries a Colt King Cobra revolver as his sidearm. Oak later finds the Colt King Cobra belonging to his dead partner Calvess (Alan Van Sprang).
During a scene in which Oak fires four rounds to frighten two suspects, he uses this revolver instead of his Colt King Cobra. Oak then produces Calvess's Colt King Cobra revolver and shows it to the suspects. It is not shown what happens to the revolver Oak uses during this scene.
Calvess's revolver appears as a Smith & Wesson Model 686 in flashback sequences. This is despite the fact that Oak clearly points to a Colt King Cobra and identifies it is Calvess's gun in parts of the film.
Sheps (Bishop Brigante) pulls a concealed Beretta 950 Jetfire on Tellis and Oak, a poor decision on his part. Calvess is also seen firing what appears to be a Jetfire in flashback sequences.
When searching Shep's house, Tellis finds several small pocket pistols hidden in his refrigerator next to the bagels and doughnuts. The pistols are in plastic baggies and are only visible for a brief moment.
Darnell (Busta Rhymes) uses a submachine gun or machine pistol during the film. Due to the fact that you never see the weapon up close it is extremely hard to identify.
