The following guns were used in the film Back to the Future:
Norinco Type 56 Rifle
Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) is shot with an Norinco Type 56 by Libyan terrorists. This is probably the only time in a movie when a Kalashnikov-pattern rifle is seen jamming.
- And evidently, this movie would have you believe that a 7.62 Warsaw Pact round fired from a Type 56 (almost said AK-47. my bad) cannot penetrate the aluminum siding of a delivery truck. -W190009637
RPG-7
The Libyan terrorists attempt to destroy the time machine with an RPG-7, causing Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) to accelerate to the speed necessary to initiate time travel in an attempt to escape.
- It is one of those fiction RPG-7s like the ones in Red Dawn and Rambo: First Blood Part II
Single Action Army
In the beginning of the movie, Doc Brown attempts to defend himself from the terrorists with a nickel-plated Single Action Army fitted with pearl grips. He has this as his personal sidearm because the "Wild West" is his favorite period in history as he mentions in the later movies.
Charlie Parker 1878 Double Barrel Shotgun
When Marty first travels back in time to 1955, "Old Man Peabody", a farmer plus obsessive pine-tree breeder, (Will Hare), mistaking him for a malevolent space mutant, fires a Charles Parker shotgun at him.
