Revision as of 17:43, 22 February 2010
The firearms of "The Way of the Gun":
IMI Galil ARM (7.62mm)
Mr. Longbaugh (Benicio del Toro) uses the Galil first as a sniper rifle fitted with a scope attached during the motel shootout and at the firefight at the brothel at the end of the film without the scope.
M1911 Colt Series 70 Pistols
Mr. Longbaugh (Benicio del Toro) and Mr. Parker (Ryan Phillippe) use Colt Series 70 Combat Government Model pistols as their main handguns. Used throughout the movie. Unlike most film where handguns are "Mexican carried" they carry theirs in IWB holsters which is a much safer and smarter way to carry. The Colts used in the film are 9mm caliber noted by the tapered barrels and crimp indention in the magazines.
H&K USP
Taye Diggs as Jeffers and Nicky Katt as Obecks use the 9mm Heckler & Koch USPs as their main handguns.
Walther PPK/S
A Walther PPK/S is used by Dr. Painter (Dylan Kussman) to kill Jeffers in the whorehouse.
- Are you certain it wasn't a SIG-Sauer P230?
In the scene in the van where Parker takes it from Dr. Painter, the safety on the slide is visible. Definitely a Walther.
Browning Hi-Power
Used by the "Question Mark" a Browning Hi-Power pistol.
Taurus Model 85
Joe Sarno (James Caan) gathers a team of his old veteran 'enforcers' to take care of business. When they attack the whorehouse they carry the newest version of the Taurus Model 85s, with rubber grips in .38 Special.
S&W Model 640 Centential
Remington 870
Ryan Phillippe as Parker and Benicio del Toro as Longbaugh use a matte blued Remington 870 through out the film. Used most by Parker.
Mossberg 590 Mariner
Taye Diggs as Jeffers uses a Mossberg 590 Mariner during the first car chase after Robin gets kidnapped by Parker and Longbaugh. Not to be confused with the more common Mossberg 500 Mariner.
Stoeger/IGA Coach Double Barreled 12 Gauge Shotgun
Parker and Longbaugh used an Stoeger/IGA Coach 12 gauge shotgun to set up a wired booby trap in their hotel room. Robin (Juliette Lewis) grabs the shotgun and turns the tables on them.
Mossberg 500AT Shotgun
Two of Joe Sarno's old timer 'enforcers' are carrying Mossberg 500AT shotguns (the old style wooden stock riot version)
Colt Commander
Mr. Parker (Ryan Phillippe) uses what appears to be a Colt Commander as his offhand weapon when they first attempt to kidnap Robin (Juliette Lewis). He places the muzzle of the Colt Commander on Jeffers' (Taye Diggs) cheek.
