Revision as of 21:56, 5 December 2008
The following guns were used in the movie The Terminator
AMT Hardballer .45 Longslide
The Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) uses an AMT Hardballer Longslide with a laser to assassinate several women from a phone book with the name Sarah Connor before getting to the real one (Linda Hamilton) at the Tech Noir nightclub.
IMI Uzi
One of the weapons used by the Terminator is an IMI Uzi sub-machine gun. He uses it mainly in the Tech Noir nightclub, when Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) interferes with his attempts to terminate Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton).
Lahti L-39
Amongst other miscellanous weapons in the Alamo Gun Store, a WW2 Finnish made Lahti L-39 anti-tank rifle is on display.
Ruger GP100 Revolver
A Ruger GP100 revolver is given to Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) by Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) in the tiki motel arrival scene and on the seat in Sarah's Jeep at the end. It's very unlikely that this revolver would be a Ruger GP 100. The model wasn't introduced by Ruger until 1986. Terminator was filmed in the summer of 1984 and released in the fall of the same year.

SPAS-12
Another gun used by the Terminator, the SPAS-12 is the gun the Terminator uses to kill the gun store owner and one of the two weapons used by the Terminator during the assault on the police station. A SPAS-12 is also seen in the hands of a human Resistance fighter in one of the "Future War" flashbacks.
AR-18
Yet another of the Terminator's guns is an Armalite AR-18 assault rifle. The gun has two magazines taped together in a 'jungle style' configuration. He uses it primarily during the assault on the police station and during the car chase following the motel scene. The script refers to the rifle as an AR-18. The Terminator novel refers to the T-800 converting the rifle from semi to full auto using tools stolen from a hardware store earlier in the day.
Heckler & Koch G3
A number of Heckler & Koch G3 rifles can be seen in the hands of human Resistance fighters responsible for guarding a human bunker in 2029.
Ithaca 37
Soon after arriving, Reese procures an Ithaca 37 shotgun from an unattended police car. In addition to having a high-capacity magazine tube, Reese saws off part of the stock to give it a pistol grip instead making it easier to conceal under his trenchcoat. Later, the Terminator is seen wielding an Ithaca 37 with a full stock, and shortened magazine while he stalks Kyle and Sarah in the parking garage. He then uses it to exchange fire with Kyle in the ensuing chase.
Smith & Wesson Model 15
Soon after arriving, Reese grabs a Smith & Wesson Model 15 from a police officer and holds him at gunpoint while demanding to be told the current date, then flees into a nearby department store when more police arrive. A second chrome S&W Model 15 is seen being wielded by the Terminator.
M16A1
During the raid on the police station by the Terminator, several police officers head to the armory and begin passing out M16A1 rifles with 20-round magazines. Lt. Edward Traxler (Paul Winfield) is seen with an M16A1 and uses the rifle shoot the Terminator in the back (which resulted in the Terminator to turn around and shoot Traxler with his own AR-18 rifle). Detective Hal Vukovich (Lance Henriksen) opens up on the Terminator with one after finding Traxler mortally wounded by the cyborg, only to take a burst from both the Terminator's AR-18 and SPAS-12 for his troubles.
Valmet M82
A Valmet M82 is used as Kyle Reese's plasma gun in the future war scene.
Browning M2
A Browning M2 heavy machine gun is seen in the future war battle scene.
'General Dynamics RSB-80 plasma gun'
A machine gun that resembles a Maxim gun/British Vickers gun is used by the Infiltrator Terminator (Franco Columbu) in the Future war scene while raiding the Human's Underground Bunker as a rapid fire laser cannon.
It is also seen on the sunroof of the car being chased by the Aerial HK.

Pipe Bomb
While at the motel, Kyle Reese and Sarah Connor can be seen assembling pipe bombs from components Reese purchased during a shopping trip. These bombs are then later used during the final car chase of the film with Reese throwing pipe bombs out the window of the comandeered pickup, trying to hit the Terminator pursuing them on a motorcycle, though fails to score a hit. One pipe bomb is later used to blow up the tanker truck the Terminator hijacks, and the last one is used to blow off the Terminator's lower body, fragments from the blast killing an already-wounded Reese and injuring Sarah Connor.
