Dredd (2012): Difference between revisions
The "Lawgiver" is the standard pistol carried by the Judges in the film, including Dredd ([[Karl Urban]]) and Cassandra Anderson ([[Olivia Thirlby]]). It can fire in several different modes, with the gun visibly changing shape (such as the barrel extending). Firing models appear to be built around a Glock pistol with a full-size grip, such as a [[Glock 17]] or [[Glock 19]].
The "Lawgiver" is the standard pistol carried by the Judges in the film, including Dredd ([[Karl Urban]]) and Cassandra Anderson ([[Olivia Thirlby]]). It can fire in several different modes, which are selected via voice activation, and features a digital display that keeps track of its remaining ammunition. In addition, the Lawgiver is coded to its owner's DNA, and will self destruct if anyone else attempts to use it. Prop wise, the Lawgivers seen in the film appear to be [[Glock 17]] pistols housed in futuristic shells.

Dredd is a 2012 science-fiction film that stars Karl Urban as the title character. The film is based on the comic book character "Judge Dredd", who first appeared in comic strips in the British science fiction anthology "2000 AD" and was first adapted into a 1995 feature film that starred Sylvester Stallone as Dredd. The 2012 film is a "reboot" and the cast includes Lena Headey and Olivia Thirlby.
The following weapons were used in the film Dredd:
The "Lawgiver" is the standard pistol carried by the Judges in the film, including Dredd (Karl Urban) and Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby). It can fire in several different modes, which are selected via voice activation, and features a digital display that keeps track of its remaining ammunition. In addition, the Lawgiver is coded to its owner's DNA, and will self destruct if anyone else attempts to use it. Prop wise, the Lawgivers seen in the film appear to be Glock 17 pistols housed in futuristic shells.
The weapon's various fire modes include:
Rapid Fire (fully automatic).
Armor piercing rounds.
Incendiary rounds. These appear to be white phosphorus.
Stun. A electric less lethal round that incapacitates the target.
"Hot Shot." A superheated round capable of melting flesh. In the Judge Dredd comics these are heat seeking rounds that track targets based on their specific heat signature. However, it is not clear whether they retain this feature in the film.
"Hi-Ex" (High Explosive).
Silencer Mode. The Lawgiver features a built in suppressor that retracts into the frame when not in use.
A criminal can be seen firing a shotgun. As this film was produced in South Africa, the shotgun is likely a 12 Gauge Musler, a South African-manufactured shotgun similar in appearance to the Mossberg 500.
Towards the end of the film, Cassandra Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) uses a Heckler & Koch MP5A3. This particular weapon is fitted with a "Navy SEF" trigger group, which is essentially a Navy trigger housing with the non ambidextrous SEF selector and markings. Her MP5 switches between having a three-lug barrel and a "smooth" barrel (similar to that of a chopped and converted HK94) in a continuity error.
Several criminals can be seen with slightly dressed up Galil Pattern rifles. As this feature was filmed in South Africa, it can be assumed that these weapons are actually Vektor R5s.
An unidentified machine gun can be seen mounted to the side of Judge Dredd's motorcycle. It appears to have a double "saddle" type ammunition drum as seen on some WWII era German machine guns such as the MG34.
File:Dredd Trailer (11).jpgThe machine gun in question is mounted to the left side of Dredd's bike, and is visible here during a car chase scene.
