Grosse Pointe Blank: Difference between revisions
(That is NOT a Remington M700, rear of the receiver is all wrong and the bolt is wrong shape. I would suspect a Savage or Model 70 before I would pick a Remington) |

The following firearms can be seen in the film Grosse Pointe Blank:
Pistols
Glock 17
The pistol of choice for hitman Martin Blank (John Cusack) is a Glock 17. Martin also dual-wields his Glock 17s, most notably during the convenience store shootout and final gunfight. One of Martin's old high school classmates, security guard Terry Rostand (Steve Pink) shows his Glock off to Martin briefly to impress him. NSA agents Steven Lardner (Hank Azaria) and Kenneth McCullers (J. Todd Freeman) also use Glock 17s. (Actually they are Glock 19s with Glock 17 magazines in them. The space between the end of the grip and beginning of the 17 round Glock 17 magazine base plate is visible.)
Glock 19
A bodyguard during the opening hit in the film carries a Glock 19.
Beretta 92
In the cover art above, Martin appears to be holding some variant of a Beretta 92 (or possibly a Taurus PT92) behind his back.
Colt Mustang
Blank's rival hitman Grocer (Dan Aykroyd) fires two Colt Mustangs akimbo during the final shootout. The advantage of using such small pistols is that it allows him to carry eight to ten at once, since he prefers to toss away his empties and draw fresh ones instead of reloading.
Desert Eagle
One of the guns inside Martin Blank's (John Cusack) weapons case is a Desert Eagle, which he briefly uses during the final shootout.
Ruger KP94
Martin Blank (John Cusack) gives Debi Newberry (Minnie Driver) a customized .40 S&W Ruger KP94 to defend herself and her father Bart (Mitchell Ryan) during the final shootout after she asks him how to make it work.
Smith & Wesson Model 629 Performance Center
Blank's rival hitman Grocer (Dan Aykroyd) fires two customized Smith & Wesson Model 629 Performance Center revolvers during the opening hit, while dressed as a doorman. Interestingly, Grocer fires approximately 27 rounds without reloading, obviously far more shots than both pistols can hold together.
Rifles
Unknown Sniper Rifle
Martin Blank (John Cusack) uses an unknown Sniper Rifle during his opening hit.
Submachine Guns
Ingram MAC-10
Felix LaPoubelle (Benny "The Jet" Urquidez) fires two MAC-10 submachine guns akimbo at Martin during the convenience store shootout.
Other
Martin's Gun Case
The case appears to include, from left to right:
- a Wildey Magnum;
- a Cobray M11/9;
- Martin's Desert Eagle; and
- what looks like a H&K USP variant, with a laser or flashlight attachment;
Also visible in the upper case is what is possibly a Walther PPK.
