Guardian Angel (original title: Schutzengel) is a 2012 German action movie about ex-special forces operative Max (Til Schweiger) who now works for the witness-protection program of the Berlin police.
The following weapons were used in the film Guardian Angel (Schutzengel):
Max (Til Schweiger) carries a Glock 27. He does not carry it in a holster, but rather on the inside of his belt with a metal clip fixed on the right side of the slide.
All police officers, most notably Max's colleagues Helena (Hannah Herzsprung), Kurt (Kostja Ullmann) and Henri (Herbert Knaup), are armed with what seem to be regular SIG-Sauer P225's. They cannot be positively identified as police version SIG-Sauer P6's because there's no clear view of its typical skeleton hammer.
During the standoff at the diner, the female police officer (Katharina Schüttler) carries an Umarex Hämmerli P26 which can be visually identified from the above mentioned SIG-Sauer P225 by the round logo in the middle of the grip.
Several hitmen carry the Brügger & Thomet MP9, in one case equipped with a B&T MP9 QD suppressor. True to it’s covert carry nature, it is seen pulled from underneath a coat in one scene.
Max uses a Luvo Arms LA-16 with a 10.5" barrel from his friend Rudi’s weapons cache. The weapon can be identified by the typical ring enclosing the back of the hand guard. The front sight has somehow been put on backwards and an EOTech sight has been fitted.
During the attack on the farmhouse, several assailants use modernized AK-47's equipped with M4-style collapsible stocks, AKM-style flash hiders and what appears to be a synthetic Command Arms quad rail handguard.
In several scenes, AKM’s are seen used. Here again, they are modernized versions with M4 collapsible stock and what appears to be a synthetic Command Arms quad rail handguard.
As mercenaries descend upon the farmhouse where Max and Nina are hiding, one of them carries a FN MAG 58. The version he is carrying has a large perforated heatshield, possibly to make the gun look like the M240 variant.
The extra’s section of the DVD shows two short gun-related movies. The first one is about the gun training that Til Schweiger took in the USA in preparation for this movie. Under the supervision of a professional shooting instructor he fired thousands of rounds, predominantly with assault rifles.
The second short movie concerns a report of an indoor gun training for the crew, all using Umarex Hämmerli P26 blank shooting replica's of the SIG-Sauer P225.
