Laser Mission is a 1989 direct-to-video action movie directed by BJ Davis (who was primarily known as a stunt coordinator) and starring Brandon Lee, Debi A. Monahan and Ernest Borgnine. Although a relatively obscure B-movie, however like all of Brandon Lee's films, enjoyed a brief spike in popularity in the mid-nineties following his abrupt death during the filming of The Crow.
The following weapons were used in the film Laser Mission:
Handguns
Browning Hi-Power

Beretta 92
Alissa (Debi A. Monahan) carries a Beretta 92 in a thigh holster for most of the film.

Col. Kalishnakov (Graham Clarke) uses a Tokarev TT-33 for most of the film. Michael takes it and uses it late in the film.
M1911-type
Eckhardt (Werner Pochath) holds Michael at gunpoint with an M1911-type pistol. Kalishnakov takes one off of a dead soldier late in the film.
Mauser C96 "Bolo"
Kalishnakov's Lieutenant (Guy Pringle) draws a Mauser C96 "Bolo" on the innkeeper.
Shotguns
Armsel Striker

Winchester 1300

Lee-Enfield Mk.I
The diamond prospector (Mees Xteen) is armed with a Lee-Enfield Mk.I rifle.
Mosin Nagant M38 Carbine
