While with his cousin, Carlito Brigante ([[Al Pacino]]) takes a chrome plated [[Auto-Ordnance M1911A1]] with pearl grips from one of the thug's waistband to shoot his way out of the bad drug deal. If you look closely at Carlito's chrome 1911 in some scenes, you can see that it has a 9mm caliber barrel and magazine, which was likely used because .45 blanks don't cycle well. It also has a beveled magazine well.

Carlito's Way is a 1993 gangster film that marked the second collaboration between Al Pacino and director Brian De Palma following Scarface (1983). Set in the late 1970's, the film stars Al Pacino as a gangster who is granted an early release from prison and is determined not to go back to his old criminal ways, but is pulled back in by his corrupt lawyer (Sean Penn) among others. The film was adapted from a series of novels by Edwin Torres, a New York State superior court judge and author, and a direct-to-video prequel, Carlito's Way: Rise to Power was released in 2005.


The following weapons were used in the film Carlito's Way:


Handguns

Auto-Ordnance M1911A1

While with his cousin, Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) takes a chrome plated Auto-Ordnance M1911A1 with pearl grips from one of the thug's waistband to shoot his way out of the bad drug deal. If you look closely at Carlito's chrome 1911 in some scenes, you can see that it has a 9mm caliber barrel and magazine, which was likely used because .45 blanks don't cycle well. It also has a beveled magazine well.

The Auto-Ordnance M1911A1 from this movie was eventually sold in a 2018 auction by Heritage Auctions.

Beretta 92SB-C

During the bar shootout, Quisqueya (Rick Aviles) fires on Carlito (Al Pacino) with a Beretta 92SB-C. Its use in the film is anachronistic, because Carlito's Way takes place in 1975, and the 92SB-C was not introduced until 1981.
