SIG-Sauer P226

A Philadelphia police officer uses his duty sidearm, a SIG-Sauer P226, to kill himself when the event affects Rittenhouse Park. This pistol is picked up and used by others to commit suicide. A P226 is also used by a US Army military policeman, PFC Auster. This is incorrect- while some SIG-Sauer P220 series pistols are issued in the US military, they are extremely limited, and it is unlikely that a common military policeman would have them. Instead, a military policeman, or any of the other military branches' police units (e.g. USN master-at-arms, USAF security forces) would be equipped with the standard Beretta M9 pistol.

AR-15-Style Rifle

One of the men in Fairfield, Nebraska loads an AR-15-style rifle. It is a heavy barreled 16" carbine that doesn't have the step down found on the M4-style barrels. It is seen only very briefly, preventing more specific details from being made out.

Iver M1 Carbine

While the survivalists arm themselves in Fairfield, Nebraska, they watch the crisis unfolding on a television set. An M1 Carbine with parts from the Iver Johnson Enforcer Pistol (with late model heat shield and wooden foregrip) is seen on a table near the television. A second Enforcer-style M1 Carbine is seen leaning against a trunk near the cooler.

Unidentified Bull-Barreled Rifle

The man holding the AK-47 in Fairfield also has a bull-barreled rifle near his legs. Again, it is impossible to identify anything other than the general type of weapon.

Unknown Rifle

An unidentifiable rifle is used by another survivor in the boarded-up house visited by Elliot's group. It appears to be a heavy barreled .308 rifle of some sort with no front sights. Being that we only see the end of the barrel, it could be anything from a Remington 700 to a Thompson Center Arms Contender Rifle.
