Revision as of 08:19, 12 August 2009
The following firearms are seen in the film Dillinger:
Star Model B
Bank robbers John Dillinger (Warren Oates), Homer Van Meter (Harry Dean Stanton), "Pretty Boy" Floyd (Steve Kanaly), and Eddie the getaway driver (John Martino) use Star Model B pistols, standing in for the M1911A1. In several scenes, DIllinger and Floyd dual-wield them. FBI agent Samuel Cowley (Roy Jenson) carries a Star Model B, notably when he watches Purvis face off against Underhill. Other vigilantes and policemen can occasionally be seen with Model Bs as well.
Thompson M1921
Several members of Dillinger's gang, most notably Lester "Baby Face" Nelson (Richard Dreyfuss), Harry Pierpont (Geoffrey Lewis), John Dillinger (Warren Oates), Charley Makley (John Ryan), Homer Van Meter (Harry Dean Stanton), Tommy Carroll (Jerry Summers), and Reed Youngblood (Frank McRae) fire the Thompson M1921 with either drum or box magazines. Dillinger's girlfriend Billie Frechette (Michelle Phillips) fires a Thompson to cover his escape from Little Bohemia (although it inexplicably alternates with a Browning Automatic Rifle in the same scene). Many FBI agents and policemen too, such as Melvin Purvis (Ben Johnson) and Samuel Cowley (Roy Jenson) carry Thompsons. Several Thompson seen have their stocks removed. Weapons supplied by Stembridge Gun Rentals.
Colt New Service
Bank robbers John Dillinger (Warren Oates), Homer Van Meter (Harry Dean Stanton), Reed Youngblood (Frank McRae), and Charley Makley (John Ryan) carry Colt New Service revolvers. Van Meter notably uses his to shoot up an old man's gumball machine at a gas station.
M1903 Springfield
M1903 Springfield rifles are seen in the hands of vigilantes in Mason City. One is also seen held by a vigilante and a state police officer at the farm where Purvis shoots Wilbur Underhill.
Winchester Model 1897
Harry Pierpont (Geoffrey Lewis) uses a Winchester Model 1897 during several shootouts. Several police and vigilantes also have 1897s. Dillinger steals one from the Crown Point jail during his break out.
Star Model B (nickel)
FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Ben Johnson) uses a Star Model B throughout the film, most likely standing in for the Colt Super Automatic chambered in .38 Super used by the FBI during the 1930s.
Winchester Model 1892
A vigilante at Wilbur Underhill's house is armed with a Winchester Model 1892.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Harry Pierpont (Geoffrey Lewis) fires a Smith & Wesson Model 10 at Little Bohemia. Several police officers and vigilantes use them as well.
Colt Detective Special
"Handsome Jack" Klutas (Terry Leonard) draws a Colt Detective Special from his pocket when he is killed by Purvis, firing a few shots into the air before he falls down the stairs, riddled by Thompson bullets.
M1903A3 Springfield
M1903A3 Springfield rifles are seen in the hands of U.S. Army soldiers guarding Dillinger at Crown Point prison.
Browning Automatic Rifle
Several members of Dillinger's gang, most notably Homer Van Meter (Harry Dean Stanton), Harry Pierpont (Geoffrey Lewis), and Lester "Baby Face" Nelson (Richard Dreyfuss) fire Browning Automatic Rifles during the Mason City bank robbery and subsequent Little Bohemia shootout. Billie Frechette (Michelle Phillips) covers Dillinger's escape with a B.A.R. (inexplicably alternating with a Thompson during the same scene).
Lewis Gun
U.S. Army soldier at Crown Point manning a Lewis gun.
Browning M1917
Some of the U.S. Army soldiers around Crown Point have water-cooled Browning M1917 machine guns set up.
American Gun Company Side-by-Side Shotgun
A 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun made by American Gun Co. is used by a Mason City vigilante.
Winchester Model 70
A Mason City vigilante carries a Winchester Model 70 with open sights. Technically, the use of the Model 70 (developed in 1936) is an anachronism for a scene taking place in early 1934.
unidentified double barreled shotgun
Several vigilantes throughout the film use double barreled shotguns. One of the Iowa vigilantes who fatally wounds Homer Van Meter uses a shotgun.
Colt Police Positive
A Mason City vigilante fires a long-barreled Colt Police Positive revolver.
Mk 2 hand grenade
"Pretty Boy" Floyd (Steve Kanaly) throws some Mk 2 hand grenades down at the police around Little Bohemia.
"Wooden Gun"
John Dillinger (Warren Oates) is shown carving his infamous "wooden gun" to escape from Crown Point jail.
M1911A1
