Revision as of 01:10, 25 July 2009
The following weapons were used in Point Break:
SIG-Sauer P226
Special Agent Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) carries a 9x19mm SIG-Sauer P226 as his FBI-issued sidearm throughout the movie. At the time Point Break was filmed, the P226 and the more compact SIG-Sauer P228 were just coming into service as the new FBI-issue sidearms, after the 10mm Smith & Wesson 1076 proved to be too unwieldy for the Bureau's purposes. In one of the film's most memorable scenes, Utah rolls onto his back and empties his P226 into the air after he is unwilling to shoot Bodhi (Patrick Swayze) and lets him escape.
Freedom Arms Model 83
Bodhi (Patrick Swayze) carries a Freedom Arms Model 83 single-action revolver in .454 Casull Magnum as his weapon of choice in the film. At the time this film was released, this was the most powerful production revolver available.
Charter Arms Undercover
Agent Angelo Pappas (Gary Busey) carries an older-model 2" Charter Arms Undercover in .38 Special as his sidearm throughout the movie. It is seen most notably in the climax.
Detonics ScoreMaster
Roach (James LeGros) carries a 2nd Generation Detonics ScoreMaster as his weapon-of-choice during the bank robberies.
Mossberg 500 "Crusier"
In both the beginning and final robberies, Bodhi's gang is seen using at least one Mossberg 500 Cruiser shotgun with an extended tube. Bodhi himself briefly handles this weapon in the climax at the airfield.
Mossberg 500
Johnny Utah is seen qualifying with a standard police-model Mossberg 500 shotgun with wood furniture in the beginning of the film.
Remington 870
Bodhi's crew also uses at least two different short-barreled, pistol-grip Remington 870 shotguns.
Steyr AUG
During the FBI's raid on the surfer gang's house, Bunker (Chris Pedersen) wields a 16" Steyr AUG A1 bullpup assault rifle.
Sentinel Arms Striker
A Sentinel Arms Striker rotary shotgun with the folding stock removed is used by War Child (Vincent Klyn) during the raid on the surfer gang's house.
[[Image:|thumb|none|400px|Sentinel Arms Striker 12 - 12 Gauge.]]
IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII
A Desert Eagle Mark VII is used by one of the surfer/heroin dealers during the FBI raid on their house. It appears to be the .44 Magnum version, judging by the bore.
Beretta 92FS
The other FBI agents in the movie, including Alvarez (Julian Reyes), all carry the Beretta 92FS as their sidearms. This is inaccurate, since the FBI has never issued or authorized the Beretta for its agents in real life, and the SIG-Sauer P226 and P228 were the FBI-issue sidearms at the time.
Sterling L2A3
At the end of the movie, at least one of the Australian police officers brandishes a Sterling L2A3 submachine gun, which seems to have its magazine in backwards!
IMI Uzi
One of the Australian police officers in the end of the film has a full-size Uzi submachine gun.
Unknown bolt-action rifle
This is carried by one of the Australian police officers at the end of the movie.
