Revision as of 14:54, 17 April 2009
The following guns were used in the film Magnum Force:
Smith & Wesson Model 29
Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) returns with his ".44 Magnum", a Smith & Wesson Model 29 with an 6 1/2" barrel as his famous sidearm in the film. According to the dialogue, Callahan's .44 loads are in fact .44 Special ammunition, as indicated by the following dialogue. "It's a light Special. This size gun it gives you better control and less recoil than a .357 Magnum with wadcutters."
Colt Python
Officer John Davis (David Soul) and the rest of the vigilante police officers carry 4" Colt Python revolvers, as well as just about every other officer of the SFPD. During the police shooting competition, Davis lets Insp. Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) try out his Python, in which he deliberately misses a target to analyze the slug with a ballistics microscope. In the film the guns are shown capable of being sound suppressed, while this particular revolver has a gap between the barrel and cylinder that is too great and allows gases to escape, as well as sound. Not to mention the guns are not built to thread a suppressor, so such a modification would be quite difficult.
Colt Diamondback
Callahan's partner, Inspector Early Smith (Felton Perry) carries a Colt Diamondback as his sidearm in the film.
Smith & Wesson M76
A Smith & Wesson M76 submachine gun is seen used by one of the "Death Squad" officers to kill a large number of underworld folks at a swimming pool party.
Trivia: Anyone who owns a copy of the DVD may note this scene is called "The Dead Pool" in the scene index, a play on the fifth installment in the Dirty Harry series, The Dead Pool.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
During the plane hijack, the two hijackers use Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolvers as their weapons. When Insp. Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) infiltrates the plane disguised as a pilot, he knocks out one of them and uses the gun to kill the other hijacker as he flees. Another Model 10 is seen in the hands of a robber during the grocery store stakeout scene.
Double Barreled Shotgun
When Insp. Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) and Insp. Early Smith (Felton Perry) are assigned to the stakeout mission in the grocery store, one of the robber holds a sawed off Double Barreled Shotgun with exposed hammers on Smith before the robber is shot by Callahan.
During the shootout outside Frank Palencio's (Tony Giorgio) place with the police, one of Frank's men uses a hammerless shotgun, also sawed off. Do to continuity error, the gun fires off three shots from only two barrels.
Beretta 951
One of the robbers during the stakeout scene in the grocery store uses a Beretta 951. A thug during the shootout in Frank Palancio's (Tony Giorgio) hideout, the shotgun-wielding thug tries to draw a Beretta but is killed by Officer Davis (David Soul) before he can fire off a shot.
Colt Detective Special
The murderous pimp (Albert Popwell) hides a Colt Detective Special between his legs when pulled over by Officer Davis (David Soul) but is shot before he can use it. Later, Inspector Frank DeGeorgio (John Mitchum) is seen using a Detective Special to shoot targets during the police competition.
M1 Thompson
One of Frank Palancio's (Tony Giorgio) thugs fires on the SFPD officers with an M1 Thompson before being killed by Insp. Callahan (Clint Eastwood). Another also fires on Callahan but it is harder to see and he is killed quickly.
Browning Auto-5
One of Frank Palancio's (Tony Giorgio) retrieves a Browning Auto-5 from the stored weapon before the shootout with the SFPD. It could also be the Remington 11 or the Savage 720, both of which are near identical clones by those companies.
Browning Hi-Power
One of the criminals in the car during the start of the film tries to draw his Browning Hi-Power before being killed by Officer Davis (David Soul).
Winchester 1897
Frank Palancio (Tony Giorgio) uses a Winchester 1897 to shoot Officer Phil Sweet (Tim Matheson) through the door of his hideout and spark the shootout with the SFPD. Another one of his men uses one as well.
Ithaca 37
A cop during the stakeout in the grocery store is seen using an Ithaca 37 shotgun while watching the robbery throught the two-way glass. During the shootout with Frank Palancio's (Tony Giorgio) men, Insp. Early Smith (Felton Perry) uses an Ithaca with an 18" barrel and blade sights.
Winchester Model 70
San Francisco Police carry unknown sniper rifles in the film, which appear to be scoped Winchester Model 70s.
M1911A1
During the combat scenario in the police competition, one of the man targets is armed with an M1911A1.
Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub
Lt. Neil Briggs (Hal Holbrook) holds Insp. Callahan (Clint Eastwood) at gun point with a Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub while in his car.
Ballistics Analysis Armory
The room at the police station used for Ballistics Analysis has a vast array of guns, many of which are obscured from view or are too difficult to identify.
