Training Day (2001)

Awestad: /* S&W 645 */

== Beretta 92 ==

Hoyt ([[Ethan Hawke]]) carries the LAPD standard issue 9mm [[Beretta 92]] throughout the film. Much like Hoyt the [[Beretta 92]] has a history of reliability, accuracy and ruggedness. For a "by the books" man like Hoyt the [[Beretta 92]] is a great choice.

== S&W 645 ==

Alonzo ([[Denzel Washington]]) carries twin [[S&W 645|Smith & Wesson 645s]] in .45 ACP with custom rear sights throughout Training Day. The [[S&W 645]] has a history of flashy owners, Det. James 'Sonny' Crockett ([[Don Johnson]]) carried a [[S&W 645]] in seasons 3 and 4 of Miami Vice. To my knowledge the [[S&W 645]] has never been a standard issue pistol in the LAPD, although it has seen standard issue service with other law enforcement departments throughout the country. For Alonzo a pair of [[S&W 645]]s are fitting; the imposing presence of a [[Colt 1911]], more powerful than the standard issue LAPD 9mm, and unique enough to get noticed.

== Glock 17 ==

Mark, one of the men in Alonzo's unit, carries a [[Glock 17]]. In my opinion this was a poor choice by the films Armorer for Mark's character. We know very little about the men in Alonzo's unit, but we do know that Mark wears nice suits. For a man in a nice tailored suit a Glock 17 would be his last choice, it's simply too pedestrian - something along the lines of a custom, or factory custom Sig Sauer P229 in .40 S&W, would have been a better choice.

Taxi Driver

Awestad: /* S&W 36 "Chief's Special" */

== S&W 29 ==

Travis Bickle ([[Robert De Niro]]) purchases four guns from the illegal arms dealer he meets, the first of which is a [[S&W 29]] in .44 Magnum. He is turned on to this gun by a passenger of his who claims he is going to kill his cheating wife with a [[S&W 29]]. The .44 features prominently in the film and is used later by Travis to shoot both the fat man and the pimp in the flop house.

== S&W 60 "Chief's Special" ==

The second pistol Travis picks out is a [[S&W 60|Smith & Wesson 60 "Chief's Special"]] stainless revolver in .38 special. The gun is incorrectly identified as being nickel plated. Travis later uses the little .38 to shoot Iris' pimp outside the flop house.

== S&W Escort .22LR ==

The third pistol Travis Bickle picks out is a [[S&W Escort]], although it is incorrectly referred to as a Colt 25. He memorably attaches the [[S&W Escort]] to a drawer slide and mounts it on his forearm. Travis later uses his [[S&W Escort]] to kill the boss in the flop house.

== Walther PPK ==

The last pistol Travis Bickle picks out is a [[Walther PPK]] in .380. He later uses the [[Walther PPK]] to shoot and kill a liquor store robber.
