The following guns were used in the film Vampires: Los Muertos:
Smith & Wesson 916A Shotgun
Various characters use the S&W Model 916A Shotgun, introduced to them by the character Ray Collins. Ray calls his weapon "Miss Piggy."
Single Shot Breach load Shotgun
Several characters have a 12 Gauge Single Shot Shotgun. One is a former Vampire hunter and the other is a 'guard' for the monastery. The exact make and model is unknown.
Star Model BM
Derek Bliss (Jon Bon Jovi) carries a nickel Star Model BM as his backup sidearm.
Spike Gun
Derek Bliss (Jon Bon Jovi) uses a gun that fires wooden spikes into Vampires. It appears to be a fully fabricated prop and not based on any live weapon. Though it is seen packed with CO2 cartridges, there is an obvious charge (with flash, sparks and smoke) that propel the spikes out of the gun.
It looks like the grip of the spike gun was taken from a revolver (look at the other screens of the spike gun alone).--TheBarry1394 21:09, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
Gamo Air Rifle
A Gamo Air rifle, unknown model, can be seen on the rack that previously held the S&W 916A shotgun, in one sequence.
The Surfboard Armory
In a nod to Desperado and the armory hidden inside the guitar case, Bliss rather improbably has an armory hidden inside his surfboard!
