A Walk Among the Tombstones is a 2014 crime thriller directed by Scott Frank (Godless, The Lookout) and was based on the 1992 novel of the same name written by Lawrence Block. Set during the year 1999, the film stars Liam Neeson as Matthew Scudder, a former cop now working as an unlicensed private investigator who is hired to look into the disappearance and subsequent murder of a drug dealer. Matthew Scudder is the main character of a series of Block's novels, which included 8 Million Ways to Die, that was turned into a 1986 feature film with Jeff Bridges in the role.
The following weapons were used in the film A Walk Among the Tombstones:
Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Colt MK IV Series 70
Matthew Scudder (Liam Neeson) uses a Colt MK IV Series 70 as his sidearm throughout the film.
Glock 17
Kenny Kristo (Dan Stevens) uses a Glock 17 in the film.
Glock 19
DEA agents use Glock 19 pistols in the film. Matthew Scudder (Liam Neeson) also disarms one of the agents who is following him, and briefly uses his Glock.
Beretta 92FS
TJ (Brian "Astro" Bradley) keeps a Beretta 92FS with a taped grip in his backbag, after he claims to have found it in a dumpster. Matthew Scudder (Liam Neeson) also handles TJ's Beretta, as he gives him a lesson in gun handling. Ray (David Harbour) also uses a Beretta 92FS in the film, most notably after the exchange at the cemetery.
Smith & Wesson 5906
Albert (Adam David Thompson) uses a Smith & Wesson 5906 during the exchange at the cemetery.
Smith & Wesson Model 640
Matthew Scudder (Liam Neeson) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 640 revolver as a back-up gun to his MK IV Series 70, and notably uses it at the cemetery shootout.
Jericho 941 RB Compact
One of the robbers uses a stainless Jericho 941 RB Compact during scene in the beginning of the film that takes place in 1991. It is doubtful a criminal would have had a compact Jericho 941 in 1991, since the pistol was first imported in the US in 1990, and the compact models were developed some time later. The Jericho turns into a American Tactical Imports FS9 in a continuity error.
American Tactical Imports FS9
One of the robbers' stainless Jericho 941 RB Compact turns into an American Tactical Imports FS9 (the US import version of the TiSAS Zigana Sport) in a continuity error. The FS9 is also highly anachronistic, since the TiSAS Zigana Sport was only introduced in 2005, and the company, TiSAS, was established in 1993.
M4A1 Carbine
Albert (Adam David Thompson) uses a customized M4A1 Carbine in the film, after the exchange at the cemetery. The carbine has been fitted with a crane stock, a DD M4A1 RIS handguard, flip-up rear and front sights, a scope, and a three-prong flash hider.
Custom Ithaca 37 "Stakeout"
One of the robbers uses a custom Ithaca 37 "Stakeout" shotgun during scene in the beginning of the film that takes place in 1991.
Winchester Model 70
Peter Kristo (Boyd Holbrook) uses what appears to be a Winchester Model 70 rifle with a scope during the cemetery shootout.
