Collateral (2004)


Heckler & Koch USP-45 (Variant 1)

Vincent (Tom Cruise) carries a Heckler & Koch USP in .45 ACP which we see him draw and fire several times. Of particular note for this film is that Cruise, as Vincent, fires the first five rounds of his "briefcase" scene attack with deliberate aim against two targets in less than one and a half seconds. This results in obvious physical, but also dramatic and cinematic, impact as it demonstrates that Vincent's degree of skill and focus is clearly on a different level than that of the armed street thugs he encounters.

Cruise trained on a LA County Sheriff's Department range in combat scenarios with a former SAS (British Special Air Service) operator, with live ammunition to increase his competency with a pistol, according to Michael Mann's DVD commentary. Cruise did not have live ammunition experience with a pistol prior to shooting "Collateral". Mann also specifically says in the DVD commentary that Vincent's USP is the .45 ACP model. It is also namechecked in the script as an "HK .45".

Vincent holds his USP-45 to Max's head when he begins speeding down the road after he snaps under the pressure. He threatens to shoot him but Max points out how he is driving 60mph down the road and shooting him would be the worst thing to do.

Max points Vincent's USP-45 at him in the Federal building before shooting the side of his jaw. With this stance, the shot was pretty much all luck.

Ruger Mk II Pistol

Vincent (Tom Cruise) assassinates Daniel (Barry Shabaka Henley) with a suppressed Ruger Mk II Pistol chambered for .22 LR. He catches his head before it smashes on the table, but in reality the suppressed shots would be louder than the slam anyway, though this is possibly to keep the blood from splashing over the table, so the ruse that Daniel is just sleeping will last longer. (An interesting note: Named in the script as a .22 Ruger with a thick, silent barrel.)

Smith & Wesson 4516

Smith & Wesson 5906

Vincent lifts a Smith & Wesson 5906 from the desk guard he kills at the Federal building and uses it as he hunts down his final target, Annie (Jada Pinkett Smith). (In the script, Vincent would have had this gun as a back-up, and it was to be a Para-Ordnance .45.)

SIG-Sauer P232

One of the robbers pulls a SIG-Sauer P232 on Max when he calls for help when tied up in the cab. He points it at Vincent when he confronts them for his briefcase before being killed. (In the script, this was simply named as a "Chrome .380".)

A robber points his SIG P232 at Max. Note the lack of trigger discipline, though, knowing how this character is a "gangsta" who learned what he knows of guns on television (Noted in the script), this is likely a deliberate directorial decision.

Steyr SPP

A Steyr SPP is seen in the hands of a bodyguard at Club Fever. The Steyr Special Purpose Pistol is the civilian version of the Steyr TMP. The major concessions the civilian model makes are the removal of the fore grip and the lack of full-auto firing capability which is rather evident since he is only seen firing it semi-auto (the full-auto bursts are heard off screen).
