Olympus Has Fallen is a 2013 action film that stars Gerard Butler as Mike Banning, a disgraced Secret Service agent who must rescue the President of the United States (Aaron Eckhart) from North Korean terrorists who have seized the White House. Directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, Shooter) the film was released in the US on March 22, 2013, ahead of the similarly-themed thriller White House Down.
The following weapons were used in the film Olympus Has Fallen:
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P229 E2
Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) and other Secret Service agents, including Agent Roma (Cole Hauser), use current-production SIG-Sauer P229 E2 pistols as their sidearms. Banning uses the P229 during the initial attack on the White house, but later discards it after running out of ammunition. Kang Yeonsak (Rick Yune), leader of the North Korean terrorists, is also seen wielding a P229. Former Agent Dave Forbes (Dylan McDermott) also uses the P229 as his sidearm.
Glock 17
Some of the North Koreans who invade the White House are armed with Glock 17 pistols. Metropolitan Police Department officers use Glocks while battling the terrorists. Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) kills one of the terrorists, and takes his equipment, including a Glock 17, after his P229 runs out of ammunition.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The North Korean terrorists appear to be largely armed with Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns with Navy trigger groups, Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights, and TA31RCO ACOG scopes. Banning also uses an MP5A3, after disarming one of the terrorists. Kang also uses a plain MP5A3 when he prepares to execute Secretary of Defense Ruth McMillan (Melissa Leo).
IMI Mini Uzi
Secret Service Agent Roma (Cole Hauser) uses a IMI Mini Uzi inside the White House, during the counter-attack.
