Canadian Bacon is a 1995 comedy written, directed, and produced by Michael Moore, who is better known for his controversial documentaries. The cast includes John Candy, Alan Alda, Kevin Pollak, Rip Torn, Rhea Perlman and G.D. Spradlin. The film is thus far the only work of fiction directed by Moore (although his critics may say it's just the only one advertised as such) and was the last film role John Candy completed before his death. Ironically, much of the filming was done in Canada, thus sending American jobs across the border to save money.
The following weapons were used in the film Canadian Bacon:
Handguns
Colt Python
Sheriff Bud Boomer (John Candy) and his friend Roy Boy (Kevin J. O'Connor) carry Colt Pythons.
Colt Trooper Mk III
Honey (Rhea Perlman) is seen cleaning a Colt Trooper Mk III as the first anti-Canadian propaganda messages come on.
Glock 17
The sidearm of Omega Force appears to be the Glock 17
Submachine Guns
Daisy Softair Model 15 MP-5K
Omega Force carries what appears to be toy MP5Ks. These might be Daisy Softair Model 15 MP-5Ks.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500
Bud Boomer is armed with a Mossberg 500 when he is guarding the hydroelectric plant.
Winchester Model 1200
Kabral (Bill Nunn) is armed with a Winchester Model 1200 slug gun.
Mossberg 500
Roy Boy (Kevin J. O'Connor) is armed with a Mossberg 500 while guarding the hydroelectric plant.
MagTech MT 586
A citizen is armed with a MagTech MT 586.
Double Barreled Shotgun
A citizen is armed with a Double Barreled Shotgun while confiscating Canadian contraband. (In this case, ice skates.)
Rifles
M16A1
M16A1 rifles are plentiful in this film, either in the hands of actors, extras, or just in the background.
M16 w/M203
Honey is armed with an M16 with an M203 grenade launcher.
AK variant
When the citizens of Niagara Falls are issued weapons, some receive AK-47 variants.
Ruger Mini-14
Honey uses a customized Ruger Mini-14 to shoot Roy Boy in order to keep him from killing himself.
Machine Guns
Browning M2
An Browning M2 is mounted on a Lynx reconnaissance vehicle, a smaller reconnaissance variant of the M113 APC that was adopted by the Canadian Army. (The movie was filmed in Canada.)
Heavy Weapons
M136 AT4
Various characters have M136 AT4 rocket launchers.
M72 LAW
Various characters have M72 LAW rocket launchers.
SPG-9 Recoilless Rifle
One of the weapons being auctioned off at the Hacker plant is a SPG-9 recoilless rifle. Once it's sold to Roy Boy, it morphs into a Stinger missile launcher.
FIM-92A Stinger
Roy Boy buy a FIM-92A Stinger at the Hacker plant auction, and accidentally fires it at the president.
Other
M24 Chaffee light tank
Once his dreams of going to war with Canada are shattered, Gus (Brad Sullivan) decides to single-handedly attack our neighbors to the South in a M24 Chaffee Light Tank.
Unknown Revolver
Honey has an unidentified revolver tucked into the back of her skirt as she escapes the Canadian hospital. This is not the Colt Trooper Mk III from earlier, as the grips are different.
