Soylent Green is a 1973 science fiction film starring Charlton Heston as a police detective who investigates a murder in a future New York devastated by overpopulation and pollution.

The following weapons were used in the film Soylent Green:
Colt Detective Special
The Colt Detective Special is the handgun carried by Detective Robert Thorn (Charlton Heston). A suppressed Colt is seen used by Fielding (Chuck Connors) and Gilbert (Stephen Young). In some scenes, the revolver appears to be fitted with a hammer shroud.
M16(SP1)
The guard in front of Thorn's and Fielding's apartment as well as the guards in front of the processing plant carry the M16(SP1).
M1917 Enfield
An M1917 Enfield appears to be briefly seen in the hands of a gas-mask clad US Army soldier during the film's opening montage.
