Movie title
Should this movie really be listed as 'Robert A. Heinlein's The Puppet Masters'? Wouldn't 'Puppet Masters, The' be shorter and simpler? After all, that's how the movie is listed on IMFDB. I understand about the potential for confusion with the Puppet Master franchise but this movie name is plural and it has 'The' added, PeeWee055 (talk) 11:55, 28 February 2014 (EST)
- I agree. Kooshmeister (talk) 20:43, 30 September 2021 (EDT)

An agent named Purvis (played by an uncredited actor) carries a gun when he, Sam (Eric Thal) and Alex (Keith David) find Jarvis in the bathroom.
One of the possessed Secret Service agents tries to draw his sidearm when Nivens' men interrupt President Douglas' (Tom Mason) abduction, but is shot before he can use it.
There are also various unidentified (and possibly unidentifiable) seen throughout the movie.
Rifles
Higgins (Benjamin Mouton) carries a scoped hunting rifle when he goes to investigate the alien landing in the forest.
Alex Holland (Keith David) and other agents investigating the fake alien ship in the woods carry assorted assault rifles.
