Project A (A計劃; A Gai3 Waak6; also known as Pirate Patrol and Jackie Chan's Project A) is a 1983 Hong Kong martial arts action comedy written, directed and starring Jackie Chan as Marine Police Sergeant Dragon Ma Yue Lung. While the film is set at the end of the 19th century, but many details of life, including some firearms, appear to be anachronistic. A sequel Project A Part II was released in 1987.
The following weapons were used in the film Project A:
Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 36
What appears to be an anachronistic Smith & Wesson Model 36 is seen in hands of the British Chief of Hong Kong Police Force (uncredited). The revolver looks like gold-plated but it is likely Titanium nitride coating that has deep gold color.
Luger P08 Artillery
Long barreled Luger P08 Artillery pistols are widely used by Hong Kong Police Force and Marine Police officers, including Captain Chi (Kwan Hoi-san), Inspector Hong Tin-tzu (Yuen Biao), and Admiral Shih (Lau Hak-suen). Gangsters and pirates also use Luger Artillery pistols.
Luger P08
When the pirates attack a British ship, a sailor is seen firing a standard Luger P08.
Mauser C96
Mauser C96 pistols are carried by some gangsters. In one scene, Dragon Ma (Jackie Chan) disarms a gangster and holds a pistol.
Mauser C96 Flashpaper Replica
A Mauser C96-style pistol is used by a gangster in one scene. It looks too crude and simplified and appears to be a flashpaper replica, used for Jackie Chan's safety as the pistol fires in dangerous proximity to his face.
Rifles
Lee-Metford Mk II
Lee-Metford Mk II rifles are service weapons of Hong Kong Police Force and Marine Police.
Lee-Enfield
The rifles that appear to be pre-SMLE Lee-Enfields are briefly seen in several scenes.
Other Weapons
Mockup Stick Grenade
Stick grenades that appear to be wooden mockups are seen in the training scene. In the final scene, Hong Tin-tzu (Yuen Biao), Jaws (Mars) and Fei (Sammo Hung) use these grenades to eliminate most of San-po's pirates. In reality, stick hand grenades of such outlook appeared only during the First World War.
