Mission: Impossible (1996)

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!

Claire mentions to Ethan that there are 75 rounds for the Beretta, but only 20 rounds for the SIG. Is this a dialogue error, or is the Beretta in another caliber?

The agents in the first picture seems to have SIG-Sauer P228s.

European models of the Beretta 8000 series Cougars were offered in 9x21 caliber. It is possible that both guns were different calibers as the 9x21 was popular in Europe where military calibers such as the 9x19 are banned by law for civilian carry.
