Error creating thumbnail: File missing Vampires: Los Muertos (2002)
The following guns were used in the film:
Smith & Wesson 916A Shotgun
Various characters use the S&W Model 916A Shotgun, introduced to them by the character Ray Collins. Ray calls his weapon "Miss Piggy."
File:S&W916A Eastfield.jpg Smith & Wesson Model 916 - 12 gauge
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ray Collins (Darius McCrary ) kills a vampire with his Smith & Wesson 916A Shotgun - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ray Collins (Darius McCrary ) reveals how he is able to kill vampires with a 12 gauge, custom made hardwood slugs with lead cores.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ray Collins (Darius McCrary ) talks about the Smith & Wesson 916A shotgun while Sancho (Diego Luna ) looks on - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ray Collins (Darius McCrary ) and the other Vampire hunters enters a Mexican bar after the Vampires have massacred everyone inside. He carries Smith & Wesson 916A shotgun - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ray Collins (Darius McCrary ) shoots his Smith & Wesson 916A shotgun "chickenwing" style, primarily because the buttplate is attached to a swivel on his shoulder rig, which allows him to hide the shotgun under his trenchcoat in public - 12 gauge. Collins can't raise the buttstock any higher when the shotgun is attached to this 'stealth' rig, which makes it a point and shoot weapon, however, the rig does absorb all of the gun's "recoil".
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Derek Bliss (John Bon Jovi ) also uses a beat up Smith & Wesson 916A Shotgun - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sancho (Diego Luna ) takes Collins' S&W 916A shotgun after his death and uses it in the final battle - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Inexplicably, before the character with the Vampire killing shotgun appears, there is a Smith & Wesson 916A Shotgun seen on the van's door.
Single Shot Breach load Shotgun
Several characters have a single shot, breach loading shotgun. One is a former Vampire hunter and the other is a 'guard' for the monastery. The exact make and model is unknown.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Lester Pomani, played by an uncredited actor, lies dead in a bathtub, the victim of a 'staged suicide' by single barreled shotgun (Make unknown) - 12 gauge. Also a 12 gauge to the head would do a lot more damage than what we see here.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing The guard for the monastery (Enrique Munoz ) searches Derek Bliss (Jon Bon Jovi ) for weapons, carrying a breach loading single shot shotgun - 12 gauge.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Monastery Guard (Enrique Munoz ) runs up to meet an attack by Vampires against the monastery with a woefully inadequate single shot breach loading shotgun - 12 gauge. Having a weapon with such limited firepower in the face of an impending attack is ridiculous.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Though a single shot weapon is better than nothing, it is next to useless against an attack by multiple targets. It is assumed that one would not face an army of attacking vampires with a weapon that only fires one shot?
Star Model BM
Derek Bliss (Jon Bon Jovi ) carries a nickel Star Model BM as his backup sidearm.

Spike Gun
Derek Bliss (Jon Bon Jovi ) uses a gun that fires wooden spikes into Vampires. It appears to be a fully fabricated prop and not based on any live weapon. Though it is seen packed with CO2 cartridges, there is an obvious charge (with flash, sparks and smoke) that propel the spikes out of the gun.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing A closeup of the spike gun.
Gamo Air Rifle
A Gamo Air rifle, unknown model, can be seen on the rack that previously held the S&W 916A shotgun, in one sequence.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing As Derek Bliss speaks, to the right we see the Gamo Air rifle in the door rack.
Crossbow
An antique crossbow of unknown make and model is used during the vampire hunt by Father Rodrigo (Cristián de la Fuente ). Being a man of the cloth, he would rather hunt vampires with antique weapons than modern firearms.

The Surfboard Armory
In a nod to Desperado and the armory hidden inside the guitar case, Bliss rather improbably has an armory hidden inside his surfboard!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing A view of the spears and spikes used in Vampire hunting. The sheer mass and volume of the weapons could not be hidden within a normal looking surfboard, nor carried, like a normal surfboard would be.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing A view of the Spike gun and the CO2 cartridges, however the spike gun uses explosive propellants when seen firing.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing A view of the Star Model BM. Note that it is too long to be the Star Model PD.
