Wild Target is a 2009 British romantic comedy directed by Jonathan Lynn (Clue, The Whole Nine Yards) starring Bill Nighy, Emily Blunt, Rupert Grint, Martin Freeman and Rupert Everett. It is a remake of the 1993 French film Cible Emouvante starring Jean Rochefort.
The following weapons were used in the film Wild Target:
Beretta 92FS
A Beretta 92FS is used by Victor Maynard (Bill Nighy) in several hits. He owns at least two, with one of them equipped with a LAM and suppressor. His mother Louisa (Eileen Atkins) calls the Beretta the "Pistol of Princes," reminding Victor that she gave him one for his seventh birthday (although it probably wasn't a modern 92FS).
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
Victor Maynard (Bill Nighy) uses an Heckler & Koch MP5A3 as his preferred "sniper" weapon, which he carries in a briefcase. His mother Louisa (Eileen Atkins) uses one as well.
Heckler & Koch MP5A5
In a continuity error, an insert shot of Victor's (or someone's hand) flicking off the safety reveals the trigger group of a Heckler & Koch MP5A5.
Smith & Wesson 686
Barney (James O'Donnell) is armed with a Smith & Wesson Model 686, which Tony and Victor later pick up.
Taurus PT92AFS
Mike (Gregor Fisher) is armed with a Taurus PT92AFS, which Tony later uses.
Heckler & Koch P7M8
Fabian (Geoff Bell) carries a Heckler & Koch P7M8.
Heckler and Koch USP
Dixon (Martin Freeman) uses a Heckler and Koch USP with and without a suppressor. Tony later gets his hands on it.
Sawn-off Double Barreled Shotgun
Victor's mother, Louisa Maynard (Eileen Atkins) uses and holds a Sawn-off Double Barreled Shotgun.
Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer
Rose (Emily Blunt) finds Victor's father's Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer. Dixon (Martin Freeman) later gets his hands on it.
Trivia - Bill Nighy's hand
Bill Nighy suffers from Dupuytren's contracture, which prevents him from straightening the ring and little fingers on each hand. This leads to him gripping his weapons in odd ways.
