Most sources say it was a SIG Sauer P226 in 9mm. It's a the SEALs standard sidearm. NBC did a story on that gun as the weapon that did the deed anyway. According to NBC, people are flocking to get their hands on the P226. Even if it wasn't the gun that killed Osama, it's still a very nice gun, expensive though.
Initially I wouldn't figure the SEALs would use a pistol, but it is possible given they may have switched to handguns since they may have been storming the inside of the building, where swinging rifles around in tight quarters may not be the best option, or a SEAL may not of had time to reload, and gone for his secondary. It's hard to say because the President isn't releasing anything.
If it wasn't the SIG P226 like most sources say then it was probably an AR-15 variant, such as an M4.

He is also believes in a form of Islam called Wahhabism, which is very strict about morality ( it was started by a person name Qutb, who was offended by American personal morality while going to college here). Osama has made many speeches, videotapes and written statements expressing his objections to American imperialist policies. His sneak attack was because he obviously was having no effect on these policies, and was unable to fight the USA militarily gun to gun. That's called asymmetrical warfare.
