Shotguns

Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser

An Internet gun sales site appears to offer for sale a shotgun that resembles a Mariner variant of the Mossberg 590 Compact Cruiser. The shotgun seen on the site appears to be Photoshopped from several different weapons (most likely to avoid copyright infringement).

The shotgun as seen on the site. The shotgun seen on the site appears to be photoshopped from several different weapons (most likely to avoid copyright infringement). For some reason, it was located in "AK-47" rifle category, and if you read the description, it claims it to be an "automatic weapon", despite the fact that it is a pump action firearm (not even bringing up the fact that the website seems to promote shooting other hunters). This was likely done for satirical reasons, or just plain lack of knowledge on how guns work. Or you could argue that the website is illegal and of questionable scruples, as the two do not look old enough to purchase the firearms and have them delivered directly to Alex's house rather than a licensed dealer.

Mossberg 500 Cruiser

Throughout the film, Alex (Alex Frost) carries a Mossberg 500 Cruiser. He refers to it as "the shotty" and keeps it on his back, although he occasionally carries it instead of his rifle.
