Interesting movie written by John Milius, and directed by Walter Hill. The final shootout is somewhat reminiscent of Sam Peckinpah's "The Wild Bunch". The producers hired Texas Ranger Joaquin Jackson as a consultant. There are many interesting guns in the movie. To name a few:
- I'll be adding screencaps given to me by User:predator20 momentarily. - Gunmaster45
Colt Commander
A Colt Commander was the main service sidearm of real life Texas Ranger Joaquin Jackson. Nick Nolte bought a .45 Colt Commander, just like the one owned by Jackson, including the custom grips and also an identical holster to carry the gun, to use it in the film. However, in his autobiography "One Ranger", Jackson remembers that the .45 Commander was not reliable with blanks. Therefore, a 9mm Colt Commander was used instead. Jack Benteen's (Nick Nolte) sidearm in the film is thus a 9mm Colt Commander.
Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine
Jack Benteen (Nick Nolte) carries a Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine as his long gun in the film. In real life, Joaquin Jackson carried similar rifle, a Winchester 1894.
Smith & Wesson Model 629
Cash Bailey (Powers Boothe) uses a 2.5" barreled Mag-na-Ported Smith & Wesson Model 629.
Smith & Wesson Model 686
A Smith & Wesson Model 686 is used by Major Paul Hackett (Michael Ironside) in the film.
MAC-10
Steyr AUG A1
Sgt. Charles Biddle (Larry B. Scott) uses a Steyr AUG A1 in the final shootout.
Beretta 92F
Sgt. Charles Biddle (Larry B. Scott) uses a Beretta 92F during the final shootout. Much like Lethal Weapon (1987) and Die Hard (1988), this is one of the first films to feature the new 92F model.
