Drawing a gun from a holster always makes a loud WHOSH sound.

They always pull the hammer down to mean business and ride the hammer back down when they are being nice

The main antagonist has extra lives

The main bad guy is always last to fall, they never have them die and then just mop up the thugs, you mop up the thugs and then go into a final confrontation....

The Villain never knows the difference in weight between a loaded and an unloaded gun.

When the main characters tells a villain that the safety is on, the guy will always look at the gun on reflex just long enough for the main character to grab and disarm.

A revolver doesn't have a safety, but when you tell someone the safety is on, he'll look.

A Glock doesn't have any external hammer or safety, yet when pointed at someone off camera, it always makes a hammer or safety sound before the camera brings it into view.

Whenever you have a gang of bad guys, the leader will always carry a fancier handgun than his henchmen. Usually, that means that his gun will have a stainless or nickel finish, while his thugs all carry standard blued pistols.

And it seems as though nickel or two-tone Jericho 941s are the standard pistol for the head bad guy (think "Live Free or Die Hard", "Casino Royale", "Under Siege 2", "Tomb Raider 2", etc.), while the others will always have standard 9mm Berettas, Glocks, SIGs, etc.

El Hefe's sidearm is always either chambered in a puny caliber or unpractically overpowered
