Above the Law is the 1988 action movie that launched Steven Seagal's movie career. In the film, Seagal stars as Nico Toscani, a Chicago cop with a CIA past and family in the Mafia who investigates the assassination of a local priest that may be part of a government conspiracy. The film (which was also released under the title Nico) was directed by Andrew Davis, who would also direct Seagal in Under Siege.
The following weapons were used in the film Above the Law:
Chicago Police Department Detective Nico Toscani (Steven Seagal) carries a Colt Government Model (Commercial M1911A1) as his main sidearm in the film. In reality, Steven Seagal owns and uses in real life several 1911s.
After he returns home to get his wife and child out of the house, Toscani retrieves a bag containing several weapons, including a Colt Commander Mk IV. During the shootout in the meatpacking district, his Government changes several times to a Commander.
The Heckler & Koch P9S is the pistol carried by Nelson Fox (Chelcie Ross) when he reunites with Toscani later in the film. Fox hands off his P9 to Toscani.
Toscani keeps a Mossberg 590 Cruiser with extended magazine tube and heat shield in his arsenal of weapons at home. He is seen handing it off to Det. Lukich. Zagon uses a standard-stock Mossberg 590, also with extended mag-tube and heat shield, in the apartment shootout during a shootout with Toscani's partner Delores "Jacks" Jackson (Pam Grier).
During their tour in Vietnam, both Toscani and Fox are seen carrying Colt XM177 Commando rifles. Another XM177 is seen in the hands of one of the gunman who shoots up Toscani's car.
