The following guns were used in the film The Boondock Saints
Desert Eagle
The first guns we see on screen are a pair of Desert Eagles in the hands of two Russian mobsters: Ivan Checkov (Scott Griffith) and his partner. These customized pistols were created for the film, and are best described as functioning replicas. At least one of these pistols remains in Toronto, Canada, in a film armourer's collection, prior to the end of production. Contrary to what Agent Smecker dictates in the movie, as well as the forensic evidence and the other officers, the Desert Eagles are actually .44 Magnum Caliber, rather than .50 AE.
DShK Machine Gun
During the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) shopping spree at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place we see a Russian DShK heavy machine gun front and center surrounded on both sides by small arms.
FN FAL
During the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) shopping spree at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place we see a FN FAL in the background.
Heckler & Koch PSG-1
During the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) shopping spree at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place we see a H&K PSG-1 in the background.
M16A2/M203
While the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) stock up at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place hanging on the wall behind them is an M16A2 assault rifle with a 40mm M203 grenade launcher attached.
Heckler & Koch MP5
Connor MacManus (Sean Patrick Flanery) briefly handles an MP5A3 with a Surefire flashlight grip at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) and gives it the HK Slap. We can also see several Heckler & Koch's MP5A2s hanging in the background.
MAC-10
During the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) shopping spree at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place we see several MAC-10s in the background.
Heckler & Koch G3
During the MacManus brothers (Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery) shopping spree at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place we see a H&K G3 in the background.
Beretta 92FS
Connor (Sean Patrick Flanery) and Murphy (Norman Reedus) arm themselves with a pair of suppressed Beretta 92FSs each. They pick these pistols up at the arms dealer's (Tom Barnett) place. The Funny Man (David Della Rocco) also briefly wields the brother's Berreta's in the Sin Bin.
Colt Diamondback
The revolver that Roc (David Della Rocco) is given with which to assassinate the Russian mobsters is not, as previously mentioned, a Colt Python, but is instead a Colt Diamondback. This can be deduced from the fact that Detective Greenly (Bob Marley) states that the culprit of the diner shootout "used a .38," and the Colt Python is not available in .38 caliber. Rocco continues to carry this Colt Diamondback while exacting his revenge on his Mafia bosses and dramatically points it both at himself and Rayvie (Gina Sorell) after his shootout at the diner.
- Anybody with any firearms knowledge knows that any revolver chambered for the .357 Magnum will also chamber the .38 Special round, as a .357 is nothing more than a .38 with an elongated cartridge casing.
- There is a difference between .38 special and .38, and that pistols made specifically to fire .38 (not special) are not supposed to be used with .357 magnum, as they will not support the pressures, nor the cartridge.
There is no ".38" Cartridge. There is .38 Special, .38 Super, .380 ACP, but no straight up .38. Even so most .38 caliber bullets are a lot less pressured than any .357 Magnum round and would surely be withstood by a gun capable of firing.357 Mags.
