Arnold's pistol, The Terminator
Arnold acquires a AMT Hardballer Longslide M1911 with a primitive laser pointer.

The prop seen in the film

"Magnetic Accelerator" Rifle, Demolition Man
The weapon Snipes calls a "phaser gun" is actually a mockup of a Heckler & Koch G11. At the time the G11 was still in the experimental stage. A cast was made of a actual G11 prototype that was loaned during production

In the film, Col. Moon has a new weapon which he describes as a "tank buster." This is a XM-29 OICW. However, the XM-29 was still in the design phase. In fact the prop seen in the film is a cover over a G36K.

Only a few parts of the original weapon can be seen in the film such as the magazine, and lower receiver.
