- It's still a 92F. You can ''just'' make out the semi-squared re-curve on the forward-bottom part of the trigger guard under his right index finger.

Revision as of 20:04, 2 May 2010
I am pretty sure it was not a recoiless rifle used to hit the LAPD APC in the movie. If I remember the scene correctly it seemed more like a bazooka a la the USMC SMAW (the Israeli B-300) where the missle/rocket is in a separate tube screwed into the rear of the launcher. In addition the launcher itself does not have the "crank" to close the rear hatch as is the case with most recoiless weapons. Finally, the reloads shown in the movie do not have the perforated shielding common to most/all recoiless rifle rounds.
- I don't have this on DVD but I swear at least one of them is a chopped down HK94 and not an A3. During the elavator scene, you can see it is missing a paddle mag release and 3 lugs on the barrel end. If someone could cap that, it would be much appreciated. -GM
- They're all chopped-down HK94s, every one of them, just like in Lethal Weapon and Predator. I have this movie on DVD, so I'll try to screencap the MP5s when I'm back at my apartment tomorrow.

Nice work with the page! It was in much need of better shots. I have 2, 3, and 4 on DVD, but 1 on VHS. I guess now 1, 2, and 3 are your work mainly. Excellent work. -GM
Thanks, I've been meaning to redo the page. I especially wanted to get rid of the screengrabs taken from Youtube videos, those didn't look too great. Anyway, now everyone can say IMFDB has completed pages of every film in the Die Hard series.--Alienqueen11 05:26, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Heckler & Koch never made a stainless version of their P7, it´s either nickel plated or hard chromed. Keep up the good work.
Recoilless rifle
I've taken a look around and I can't see any recoilless with a tube that looks like that one at the back. Thing is, there are some recoilless rifles with muzzles that look like that; if it's not a prop, it looks like they mounted it backwards.
Walther ppk
if u look at the Walther used by karl, the silncer looks alot smaller than the one on the picture of the silenced walther.

Beretta taped to Willis' back
First off, I love "Die Hard". Always have, ever since I first saw it 20 years ago. But I can't help but doubt that cheap tape would hold a Beretta. That pistol is at about 2 lbs.
Don't you guys outthere think, filmmakers tend to forget about the weight of weapons too often? In many movies, people can be seen throwing and catching guns, as if they were baseballs. And how many times have we seen guns hidden in clothing and even in hats?! Even a small handgun like a Browning Baby or one of the small Berettas are at least 400 g. That's the weight of a beer can. Ever tried to hide a beer can under your hat? In one of his movies, I remember seeing Schwarzenegger carrying his Beretta 92 in one of his socks! Don't you think, it would be a hell of a job to walk that way? What dou you think about all these almost weightless guns in many movies? --Lastgunslinger 14:13, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- In the filmmaker's defense, he only had two rounds in the mag, instead of a full mag. That has to count for something, right? --Funkychinaman 03:28, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Five vs Six
What's the story on the five vs six shots from Powell at the end? I was expecting to see some explanation that there was a discrepancy between how many shots are seen verses heard or something like that, but after reading to the end it looks like two editors can't agree on who is correct. -ReverendTed 20:02, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
M16?
The M16 that the SWAT guy has (the one going through the thorn bushes) looks like one of those fake MGC M16s. It looks like it has the nut where the forward assist should be. What do you think? --Funkychinaman 03:27, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Did you know
Did you know in every Die Hard movie, there is at least one German made gun that is used by a bad guy.
What I thought about all the Die Hard movies
This is what I thought about all the Die Hard movies.
First: Excellent and probably the best of the series.
Second: It was OK.
Third: Very, very hilarious.
Fourth: It was good.
Front cover
Is it just me or does the Beretta that Willis is holding on the front cover of the film look like a 92SB because the trigger gaurd looks rounded.
