Mk 12 Mod 1 Special Purpose Rifle

Kyle uses a Mk 12 Mod 1 Special Purpose Rifle with a tan paint scheme, Harris bipod, Crane stock, Leupold Mark 4 scope, and suppressor while training to be a sniper. Other SEALs are also seen using the rifles in Iraq.

TRIVIA: Chris Kyle, in a piece for Soldier of Fortune wrote that he "took the lower receiver off [his] (sic) M-4 and put it on the upper receiver of [his] Mk-12. That gave [him] a collapsible stock and allowed [him] to go full-auto." By stating that he could "go full-auto", he very clearly meant an M4A1 Carbine, not the burst fire only M4 Carbine, but some use "M4" as an umbrella term to refer to both. Additionally, he could have simply put a collapsible stock and full auto trigger pack on his Mk-12, he didn't need to change the lower for that, it was likely just done as it'd be easier than cannibalizing parts off of an M4A1.

Springfield TRP Operator

Chief Petty Officer Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper) briefly carries a Springfield TRP during his first tour, visible in a thigh rig holster and/or a leather belt holster. He later switches to a SIG pistol (from his second tour on), which should be a .45 ACP SIG-Sauer P220 (according to Kyle's autobiography and Independent Studio Services, which provided the arsenal for the movie –Recoil Magazine Issue 18, USA), but might be a P226 on some shots. In real life, Kyle's Springfield TRP Operator was a personal sidearm of choice during his first tour before it was damaged by shrapnel, prompting him to switch to a modern design sidearm onward on his later tours.

SIG-Sauer P220

Starting from his second tour to the rest of the movie, Chief Petty Officer Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper) carries a SIG-Sauer P220 as his sidearm in a brown leather hip holster. According to ISS, Kyle's SIG is an original West German model. Like the Springfield TRP Operator, the SIG-Sauer P220 was a personal sidearm of choice of Kyle's when he made the switch later in his military service.

Kyle's P220 is seen holstered during his team mission briefing. Note the angled grip and sharper grip backstrap. It should be noted Kyle is carrying his P220 in a P226 holster, however the pistol grips design confirms it is not a P226.

SIG-Sauer P226

Most of the U.S. Navy SEALs in the film carry the SIG-Sauer P226 as their sidearm. Both Navy SEAL Lt. Martens (Sam Jaeger) and Dauber (Kevin Lacz) are seen carrying their P226 pistols tucked into their plate carriers.

Beretta 92FS

Ranger One (Owain Yeoman) and a Delta sniper in Kyle's fourth tour both have a Beretta 92FS in their leg platform rig holsters. The Beretta 92FS is likely standing in as the Beretta M9.

Benelli M1 Super 90 (Short Barrel)

During the film's opening, a Marine on patrol appears to be armed with the short barrel variant of the Benelli M1 Super 90 with a pistol grip, short barrel and Surefire forend. The shotgun was likely standing in for the Mossberg 590A1 shotguns actually used by the U.S. Marines.
