American Gangster (2007)

American Gangster is the 2007 biographical crime drama that centers on the life of Frank Lucas, a low level gangster working out of Harlem who in the late 1960's rose to power after devising a way to smuggle a pure form of heroin to the States directly from the Far East during the height of the Vietnam War. Directed by Ridley Scott, the film stars Denzel Washington as Lucas and Russell Crowe as Richie Roberts, a New Jersey detective who was instrumental in taking the crime boss down. (Ironically, both actors previously starred together in the 1995 sci-fi film Virtuosity, in which Washington played the cop and Crowe played the criminal.)

The following weapons were used in the film American Gangster:

Pistols

FÉG PJK-9HP

Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington) carries a Fegyver és Gépgyár PJK-9HP, a Hungarian copy of the Browning Hi-Power. This weapon is chrome plated with wood grips, and has been converted for blank fire. During production the gun was set up as a "solid plug" version, meaning the barrel was completely blocked off so the gun could safely be fired close to a person's skin. This was necessary for the scene in the film where Lucas shoots a rival gangster in the forehead, and then places the gun on his chest. There was only one FÉG pistol rented for the production, so the same gun can be seen on screen in every shot. It can be matched by the wood grain of the grips and small scratches on the frame.

-== Fegvergyar PJK-9HP ==
+NYPD Detective Trupo ([[Josh Brolin]]) uses a [[Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose]] throughout the movie. This is a technical inaccuracy as the NYPD did not authorize the .357 magnum revolver (and never has) for use by its officers during the time period covered in the movie. Officers were restricted to .38 special Colt or Smith & Wesson revolvers in the sixties and seventies. But Trupo is a corrupt cop who ignores the rules and has "juice", so it could be argued he received a special exemption as long as he loaded it with .38 Special only.
-Used by Frank Lucas ([[Denzel Washington]]).This hero blank-fire Browning Hi-Power clone, manufactured by FEG, was used by Denzel Washington as Frank Lucas in the Ridley Scott film American Gangster. Inspired by a real-life events, American Gangster tells the story of notorious Harlem gangster Frank Lucas and his organization in the 1970s.

-This pistol is a Browning Hi-Power clone manufactured by FEG. It is chrome plated with wood grips, and has been converted for blank fire.

-This was the only FEG pistol rented to the production and so therefore is the one seen on screen in every shot. It can be screen matched by the woodgrain of the grips and small scratches on the frame.
-The [[Browning Hi-Power|Fegvergyar PJK-9HP]] is a well made clone. FEDG is a Hungarian gun maker who has produced firearms for the Hungarian military for many years. FEG guns are known to be affordable and well made if not very flashy.

They were restricted to .38 special Colt or Smith & Wesson revolvers in the sixties and seventies. But Trupo is a corrupt cop who ignores the rules and has "juice".

+Huey Lucas ([[Chiwetel Ejiofor]]), Frank Lucas's brother, uses a [[Smith & Wesson Model 629]] during the raid at the drug factory. This would be inaccurate for the time period as the raid takes place in 1975, while the revolver first came out in 1978.

-==Rohm RG-24==
+==Smith & Wesson Model 64==
+Det. Ritchie Roberts ([[Russell Crowe]]) carries a [[Smith & Wesson Model 64]] with a 3" barrel as his sidearm. This particular model is anachronistic as it was first introduced in 1981, while the film takes place in the late 60s and early to mid 70s.

-This small .22lr is basically the lorcin/jennings/davis of Germany. It is a low quality pot metal gun generally selling for less than 30$. Frank's Cousin uses it to shoot and injure a woman.

+The [[Colt Official Police]] revolver is used by various police officers throughout the movie. Both the 2" snub nosed version and the 4" standard configuration are carried.

-==Beretta 3032 Tomcat==
-The [[Beretta Tomcat]] is chambered in .32 ACP, and was first manufactured in 1979 as a carry or holdout pistol. It was used by one of Lucas's party guests to wound another with a leg shot.  It is not the 950 Jetfire because of the rounded trigger guard and higher profile front site.
-[[Image:AG-380.jpg|thumb|450px|none|Lucas's cousin gets high and wounds another guest at a party.]]
-This is a production flaw in that the events depicted are meant to have taken place in the mid 70's whereas the Tomcat was not invented by Beretta until 1979.

+==Sawed-off Double Barrel Shotgun==
+Frank's doorman at the heroin plant uses a [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun#Short barreled Side by Side Shotgun (Sawed Off)|Sawed-off double-barreled shotgun]]. He has it loaded with birdshot, and foolishly tries to shoot it through a steel door, which injures on him and the girls in the room when the shot ricochets.

-Frank Lucas ([[Denzel Washington]]) drops one of his guns which most closely resembles a [[Smith & Wesson Model 586]] with electrical tape on ot in several places Some may confuse it with a Colt Python but it lacks vent ribs, and also has the grip formation, trigger, trigger guard, sights and hammer shape of a Smith.
+==Double Barreled Shotgun==
+A standard [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|Double barrel shotgun]] is held by one of Lucas's guards at heroin processing center.
-I would argue it is a Python. Watch it after it drops to the ground and the barrel bounces up. You can just get a glimpse of the ventilated rib. Also the hammer is the shape of the Python hammer not the .375" semi-target hammer of the 586. The grip does have tape on it but the grip panel looks to be the unique "stepped" design of the Colt Python target grips rather than the S&W Goncalo Alves target grips. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 04:36, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
