==[[MAC-10]]==
''Colors'' is a 1988 film directed by [[Dennis Hopper]] and starring [[Robert Duvall]] and [[Sean Penn]] as a pair of LAPD officers assigned to the CRASH ("Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums") unit. The film is notable for being one of the first Hollywood attempts to realistically depict the Los Angeles gang problem, and for featuring many now well-known actors in minor supporting roles (including [[Don Cheadle]], [[Damon Wayans]], and [[Mario López]], all of whom played gang-bangers here).

==[[Taurus PT92]]==
'''The following guns can be seen in this movie:'''


A Taurus PT92 pistol is carried by Hodges ([[Robert Duvall]]) as his personal weapon.


It's a Taurus PT92 in that particular scene (you can tell because it has the safety mounted on the frame, not on the slide), but I believe he uses a Beretta for the rest of the movie.

Officer Bob Hodges ([[Robert Duvall]]) carries a [[Beretta 92FS]] as his service pistol throughout the movie, which was just entering service with the LAPD at the time of the film. Several other LAPD officers can be seen using the Beretta, and at least one gang-banger also uses one during the shootout at the climax.

Hodges ([[Robert Duvall]]) can also be seen using a [[Taurus PT92]] during the scene where CRASH busts the drug dealer Oso ([[C.E. Grimes]]) in his home. It is not clear if this is supposed to be his plainclothes/off-duty pistol, or if the movie's armorer simply was unable to bring a [[Beretta 92FS]] to the set when this scene was filmed (in all other scenes, Hodges' pistol is definitely a Beretta).

McGavin ([[Sean Penn]]) also carries a compact revolver in an ankle holster which is only ever seen for a second during the scene in the restaurant where High Top ([[Glenn Plummer]]) is arrested. It appears to be a [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]], but this is far from certain.
Finally Officer McGavin ([[Sean Penn]]) carries a 3rd revolver: a S&W 36, as a backup gun, in an ankle holster (barely visible in one scene, during the fight in the Restaurant).
