I don't know for sure (haven't seen "The American"), so I can't compare. But it's possible. Movie guns come from the same small group of prop houses and armories. Any time you see a gun on-screen, that weapon usually has already been used in dozens (or even hundreds, in some cases) of other productions, and handled by many different actors.
Of course, the exception is when it's a weapon that was procured and converted to blank-fire specifically for that movie.
