'''''Crank''''' is a 2006 action thriller starring [[Jason Statham]] as Chev Chelios, a former hitman who wakes up to discover that he's been poisoned with a formula that stops the flow of adrenaline to his heart. In order to keep himself alive, Chelios finds himself resorting to extreme measures to keep his adrenaline up throughout the day as he attempts to discover a way to counteract the poison. The film was directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, and despite the film's seemingly unfortunate ending, Statham would return as Chelios in the 2009 sequel ''[[Crank: High Voltage]]''. | |||

He is most prominently seen using it during the roof shootout, in which Chelios throws a wine bottle at Verona's hand, causing him to drop his Model 500, which fires and blows off four of his fingers. One of the gangsters in the club is seen with one as well. | |||

==M26 hand grenade== | |||
The thug on the rooftop with the AKMSU pulls out an [[M26 hand grenade]] to throw at Carlito's men on the roof. Carlito then uses one of his own men to deflect the grenade. | |||

=Extra (Note)= | |||
While this has nothing to do with guns, I figured this was worth noting. At the end of the film when Chelios and Verona fight in a helicopter that seems to fly up to about a 1000ft in the air, Chelios falls out and leaves one last message on his girlfriend Eve's phone. Somehow the wind that would be rushing past his phone does not interfere with the call in anyway, even though in real life the call would be inaudible. | |||
[[Image:CrankSpecialCellphone.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Chelios leaves a message on his girlfriends answering machine as he falls to the ground. Somehow the rapid wind does not make the call any less clear.]] | |||
At one point in the sequel, we hear the message is nothing but wind, despite the fact we hear it clear as day on Eve's message machine. Although, this was likely the way Chev was imagining it would hear. | |||

Extra (Note)
While this has nothing to do with guns, I figured this was worth noting. At the end of the film when Chelios and Verona fight in a helicopter that seems to fly up to about a 1000ft in the air, Chelios falls out and leaves one last message on his girlfriend Eve's phone. Somehow the wind that would be rushing past his phone does not interfere with the call in anyway, even though in real life the call would be inaudible.
At one point in the sequel, we hear the message is nothing but wind, despite the fact we hear it clear as day on Eve's message machine. Although, this was likely the way Chev was imagining it would hear.
