Sneakers is a 1992 thriller directed by Phil Alden Robinson (The Sum of All Fears) and starring Robert Redford as Martin Bishop, the head of a team of security specialists who find themselves unknowingly involved in the theft of the ultimate codebreaking machine. The film's cast included Dan Aykroyd, River Phoenix, Sidney Poitier, and Ben Kingsley.
The following weapons were used in the film Sneakers:
Smith & Wesson Model 60
The Smith & Wesson Model 60 with Pachmayr grips is the weapon Donald Crease (Sidney Poitier) takes out when the team discovers how dangerous the codebreaking machine can be. Martin Bishop (Robert Redford) then takes it with him to the meeting with Gregor (George Hearn), the Russian attache.
Smith & Wesson 659
A Smith & Wesson 659 with Pachmayr grips is featured prominently in the film, notably seen in the hands of Dick Gordon (Timothy Busfield), Liz (Mary McDonnell), and Cosmo (Ben Kingsley).
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS is in the hands of an NSA agent (Anthony Winters) at the end of the film.
Mossberg 590 Mariner
The Mossberg 590 Mariner shotgun is also used throughout the film, notably by Buddy Wallace (Eddie Jones) and other members of the PlayTronics security. At one point, a Mariner shotgun is used by Donald Crease (Sidney Poitier).
Mossberg 500 Mariner
In a continuity error, the Mossberg 590 Mariner shotgun earlier used by Buddy Wallace (Eddie Jones) turns into a Mossberg 500 Mariner when he leads Bishop into Cosmo's office.
Heckler & Koch SP89
NSA agents at the end of the film carry Heckler & Koch SP89 semi-auto carbines. Carl (River Phoenix) mistakenly refers to the weapon as an Uzi.
