'''''Last Man Standing''''' is a 1996 action drama directed by [[Walter Hill]] and starring [[Bruce Willis]] as John Smith, a gunslinger-for-hire during the Prohibition era who stumbles upon a ongoing war between the Irish and Italian Mafia in a small Texas town near the Mexico border. The film was inspired by the Japanese samurai film ''[[Yojimbo]]''. | |||

==M1911A1== | |||
John Smith ([[Bruce Willis]]) keeps two [[M1911 pistol series#M1911A1|M1911A1]]s with diamond checker grips in crossdraw shoulder holsters and dual-wields the pistols several times in the film. Hickey ([[Christopher Walken]]) also uses an M1911A1 with bolo wood grips as his sidearm. This film obviously is not trying to win the award for gun realism as Smith tends to fire up to 40 rounds from his .45s in each scene before reloading (when their capacities are seven rounds plus one in the chamber). The guns are also shown capable of sending people flying when they are barraged by them. Also, as [[Bruce Willis]] is left-handed, the left 1911 has an extended slide release so his index finger can easily release the slide. | |||
