While the weapons in their sprites aren't very detailed, their general shape, function, and use by each specific actor somewhat give away their identification:
- Arnold Schwarzenegger is parodied as "Arnnie Frankenfurter", though he was later renamed to "Hero" after a patch. His weapon is intended to pass for a Handheld M134 Minigun, as used in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, although it is represented by some sort of cannon in the in-game sprite.
- Clint Eastwood is parodied as "Flint Westwood", later renamed to "Cowboy". He is armed with a handgun, which he reveals to be a Smith & Wesson. His quote ".45 in the holster", combined with his cowboy attire, could imply that his gun is a Smith & Wesson Schofield revolver, which Eastwood used in the Western movie Unforgiven. That said, many of his other quotes are references to other of his movies (in which he used different S&W revolvers), most notably as Dirty Harry.
- Sylvester Stallone is parodied as "Sammy Stallion", later renamed to "Bodybuilder". His weapon is an M60E3, which Stallone used in Rambo: First Blood Part II.
