Handguns

Beretta 92FS Inox

The Beretta 92FS Inox appears in the film as the side-arm of the secret police of the government, aka "Fingermen". Plain-clothes Fingermen carry plain 92FS Inoxs and Fingermen of the tactical variety carry heavily customized versions, fitted with compensators, huge barrel weights on the dustcover, and tactical flashlights. Fingermen can be seen wielding these Berettas several times in the film, most notably during the climax shootout. Also during several flashbacks Fingermen briefly wield Berettas.
