During the entire movie it is snowing heavily. At the very end, when the last shot pans over the city there is no snow anywhere, not even on the trees. See more...

The silencer devices on the rifles in the movie can only be used on a weapon that utilizes .45 calibre ammunition. The rifles utilize 5.56mm. [Actually, suppressors are usable with high-powered rifles. The use would muffle the sound of discharge, but the bullets would make a nasty crack going by, due to moving faster than sound.]

I know being a bad shot isn't necessarily a plot hole, but several times the cops outside have a direct bead on Sgt. Roenick (as he runs in and out of the building) through their telescopic sights at almost point blank range, and miss completely. Likewise, a big deal is made in the laser site scene earlier. One essentially cannot miss with a laser sighted weapon, yet these cops cannot hit the broad side of a barn. This really stretches credulity to the nth degree. [My brother in law is a member of a police force. Yes it is possible to miss with a laser sighted gun. I can cite many news reports where a suspect has a shootout with police, dozens of shots are fired, and the suspect is only hit once or twice. And, as you said, a bad shot doesn't make a plot hole.]

When Roenick and the others emerge from the underground sewer, he uses one hand to effortlessly push aside the manhole cover. Large manhole covers weigh several hundred pounds - far more than can be moved with one hand. [As a child growing up in Detroit, I remember on many occasions I would be be able to stick my fingers in the holes of man-hole covers near my school and lift up the corners. If I could do this with a few fingers as a child, Roenick could with one hand. Saying they way several hundred pounds is crazy, how would ANYONE lift them up by themselves.]
