Discussion
- I believe the image is from one of Chan's early American movies, a 1985 film called The Protector ([1]). Also, in the film the weapon is stated as being a portable, six-shot 20mm cannon and not a minigun. Most likely a purely fictional weapon. The film is rather sub-par by Jackie Chan's usual standards but is still worth a watch.
- That scene IS from The Protector, and to recall what the gun was known as, "WTF is that? I got that from an Israeli friend of mine. That's a portable 6-shot 20MM cannon. It is never held by Jackie on-screen, but it is in the promotional images. Although in the film, it is used and held by Danny Aiello, as he's the only one shown to touch it. Probably a fake prop.-Codemaster94
Jackie and Firearms
Jackie Chan seems to avoid using guns in many of his films or else uses them less than others may in the same situations. There are a few exceptions to this but it is still a fairly common feature of many of his films. Does Chan dislike firearms or does he simply abstain from them in order to make room for greater amounts of hand-to-hand fight scenes? I heard somewhere that he hates guns in general but I've never found anything that confirmed this. -Anonymous
He once said that he needed to carry a gun everyday in order to protect himself from triads. --Btgr (talk) 03:52, 3 January 2016 (EST)
