Project Gutenberg (Chinese title: 無雙, Wúshuāng; lit. "Unequalled") is a 2018 Hong Kong-Chinese action film. The film stars Aaron Kwok as Lee Man, a member of a counterfeiting ring interrogated by the Hong Kong Police Force as they attempt to track down the mysterious leader of the syndicate, only known as the Painter (Chow Yun-Fat). The film is told mostly as a series of flashbacks, recounting Lee's history with the Painter as they attempt to replicate the new, more secure Series 1996 US $100 bill and their various dealings while the Hong Kong police in the present day use his accounts to find leads on him.
The following weapons were used in the film Project Gutenberg:
The Beretta 92FS is used by a few Merlin Guerilla fighters, as well as Painter (Chow Yun-Fat). He also later uses a suppressed one in the hotel. Lee Man (Aaron Kwok) and Ng Sau-ching (Joyce Feng) also use the pistol in flashbacks following his interrogation.
Glock 17s are used by several EXPS security guards as well as one of the Merlin Guerilla general's bodyguards. It is also used by Painter, Brother Four (Justin Cheung), and one converted to full-auto is used by Uncle Yam (Liu Kai-chi). Some of the Glocks seen in the film are anachronistic 3rd Generation models.
In the hotel dealing, Lee Man is presented a Colt Detective Special to kill undercover policeman Lee Wing-chit (David Wang) with, and uses it in the ensuing shootout; during this sequence, he manages to fire nine shots from the revolver without reloading. Near the end of the film, a HKPF officer also appears to hold a Detective Special.

Brother Four uses a Knight's Armament Revolver Rifle to snipe security guards from afar during the armoured van robbery. Since the scene was filmed in British Columbia, Canada, it is the mockup built by Felcan Enterprises that was originally made for Another Stakeout.
An M4A1 is used by a security guard during the armoured van robbery, and another is used Bobby in the battle with the Merlin Guerillas. The rifle used by Bobby is fitted with an anachronistic 6-position stock.
Along with the M16A2, the Merlin Guerilla soldiers are also armed with Type 56 assault rifles. Painter dual-wields the Type 56 during the shootout, and Lee Man is also seen doing so in a flashback.
