'''''Man on Fire''''' is a 2004 action thriller starring [[Denzel Washington]] as John Creasy, a burnt-out former CIA operative and military officer who takes a job in Mexico guarding Pita Ramos ([[Dakota Fanning]]), the nine-year-old daughter of a wealthy businessman. When Pita is kidnapped and he is severely wounded, Creasy is determined to get her back at all costs. The cast also includes [[Radha Mitchell]], [[Marc Anthony]], [[Rachel Ticotin]] and [[Mickey Rourke]]. The film was directed by [[Tony Scott]] and was based on the 1980 novel of the same name written by A. J. Quinnell, which had been previously adapted into [[Man on Fire (1987)|a 1987 film]] starring [[Scott Glenn]]. Both Fanning and Washington would reunite nearly 20 years later for the 2023 film ''[[The Equalizer 3]]''. | |||

==Glock 34== | |||
The [[Glock 34]] in 9x19mm is the sidearm of John Creasy ([[Denzel Washington]]), who carries it in a Kydex OWB holster. At one point in the film when Creasy is teaching Pita by her pool, he is seen carrying the pistol in his OWB holster without a shirt covering it like in most other scenes, and on his other side he has a double magazine pouch. It is the weapon with which he attempts suicide and later uses in the kidnapping scene. | |||
It is interesting to note that Creasy's Glock 34 has a 2nd Generation frame (no accessory rail, finger grooves, or thumb rest) during the scene where he attempts suicide, but later in the film, it does have the (correct) 3rd Generation frame, which was the only factory option available from Glock. This is most likely because the slide for the pistol was blank-adapted separately, and the armory had a shortage of 3rd Generation frames at the time. The -34 slide will fit and work fine on a 2nd Gen frame, though this is not factory standard. | It is interesting to note that Creasy's Glock 34 has a 2nd Generation frame (no accessory rail, finger grooves, or thumb rest) during the scene where he attempts suicide, but later in the film, it does have the (correct) 3rd Generation frame, which was the only factory option available from Glock.

Man on Fire is a 2004 action thriller starring Denzel Washington as John Creasy, a burnt-out former CIA operative and military officer who takes a job in Mexico guarding Pita Ramos (Dakota Fanning), the nine-year-old daughter of a wealthy businessman. When Pita is kidnapped and he is severely wounded, Creasy is determined to get her back at all costs. The cast also includes Radha Mitchell, Marc Anthony, Rachel Ticotin and Mickey Rourke. The film was directed by Tony Scott and was based on the 1980 novel of the same name written by A. J. Quinnell, which had been previously adapted into a 1987 film starring Scott Glenn. Both Fanning and Washington would reunite nearly 20 years later for the 2023 film The Equalizer 3.
The following weapons were used in the film Man on Fire (2004):
Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Pistols
Glock 34
The Glock 34 in 9x19mm is the sidearm of John Creasy (Denzel Washington), who carries it in a Kydex OWB holster. At one point in the film when Creasy is teaching Pita by her pool, he is seen carrying the pistol in his OWB holster without a shirt covering it like in most other scenes, and on his other side he has a double magazine pouch. It is the weapon with which he attempts suicide and later uses in the kidnapping scene.
It is interesting to note that Creasy's Glock 34 has a 2nd Generation frame (no accessory rail, finger grooves, or thumb rest) during the scene where he attempts suicide, but later in the film, it does have the (correct) 3rd Generation frame, which was the only factory option available from Glock. This is most likely because the slide for the pistol was blank-adapted separately, and the armory had a shortage of 3rd Generation frames at the time. The -34 slide will fit and work fine on a 2nd Gen frame, though this is not factory standard.
Glock 17
Creasy later carries another Glock, the Glock 17. Used when he kidnaps his first revenge victim, and when he assaults the motorcade and kidnaps the police captain. Later given to Mr. Ramos (Marc Anthony) to kill himself with.
